My Brother Daqin No. 1 Dude

Chapter 120 Brother Emperor, Times Have Changed (14)

On the first page of "Comparison Table of Great Seal Characters in Simplified Chinese", the title is written with two characters of strokes, and the content is 一, 丿, 丨,  …

On the second page of "Comparison Table of Great Seal Characters in Simplified Chinese Characters", the title says radicals, and the content is 钅, 犭, 宀, ...

The third page of "Comparison Table of Simplified Chinese Characters and Great Seals" is the comparison between simplified Chinese characters and big seal characters. One simplified character can often be compared with three or four big seal characters.

The First Emperor looked carefully.

About a cup of tea, Shi Huang closed the book.

Emperor Shihuang thought about it for a while, and said, "Chengyu, is this your invention of writing?"

"I'm just a mover, this is the text in my dream."

"You can say whatever you want." The first emperor patted the book in his hand, looked at Ying Chengxun with astonished eyes, and said: "Create a kind of writing by yourself, or break away from the current writing system?" Outside."

"Looking at it now, Li Si praised you when he said, 'I have never seen someone like you, never knew that there was someone like you in history, and I have never heard rumors that there are people like you'. Not only was there no exaggeration, but on the contrary, he underestimated you. If this word is released In the world, you are a sage who surpasses the sages of all ages and is comparable to the ancestors of Cangjie."

Ying Chengxun squinted his eyes and said, "Brother Huang, you don't have to praise me, just say 'but'."

"Haha, you bastard." Shi Huang shook his head and laughed.

"However, you have overlooked a very important issue. The unification of characters must be done, and it must be done as soon as possible. Who will do it? Are you and I? No, it is for those who can read and write. "

"Your simplified characters go from strokes to radicals, and then from radicals to simplified characters. This simplified character, which progresses from shallow to deep, is simpler than the characters of the Seven Kingdoms. It is easier for people who do not know the characters to learn than to learn the characters of the Seven Kingdoms." The text is much simpler."

"However, who will teach these people who cannot read?"

The First Emperor paused for a moment, seeing that Ying Chengxue's face remained unchanged, and he didn't intend to intervene.

He frowned, and asked himself an answer: "It's the scholars I mentioned earlier. I can cut off the heads of those scholars, but I can't force them to learn your simplified Chinese characters to spread to the world."

"Chengyu, the world is too big. If your simplified characters want to become a unified language in the world, you must have a group of people who have thoroughly learned your simplified characters."

"And it will take at least five years to train this group of people. These five years are the five years when the world has just been unified, and it is too important to Daqin. I can't wait, Daqin can't wait."

"Brother Huang, you want to stop me from promoting simplified Chinese characters, just like preventing me from promoting movable type printing back then, is it like paper?"

The First Emperor patiently explained: "Why did I prevent you from promoting movable type printing and paper? It is because once you implement it, everyone in the world will be able to read and practice calligraphy, and the wisdom of the people will be greatly developed, and the development of people's wisdom will make the people strong."

"The "Shang Jun Shu" has a saying: the people are strong and the country is weak, and the people are weak and the country is strong. When the people are strong, the country will be weak. Only when the people are weak, the country will be strong."

"Powerful people are not easy to rule. When they start to think about the right or wrong of the decrees issued by the court, it means that their obedience to me will be greatly reduced."

"Such Qin people go to the battlefield, can they still be brave and not afraid of death? Qin people are afraid of death, how can the Great Qin rule the world. You have read more books than me, you should understand this truth."

Ying Chengxi sat on the ground opposite Ying Zheng, a rare upright sitting.

"The "Tao Te Ching" has a saying: Those who governed well in ancient times were not based on enlightenment of the people, but would be fooled. The people are difficult to govern because of their wisdom. Therefore, governing the country with wisdom will be the thief of the country. Not governing the country with wisdom will be the blessing of the country. Lao Tzu believes that people who were good at governing the country in ancient times did not make the people wise, but made the people ignorant. The people are not easy to manage because they know a lot. Therefore, if you open up the wisdom of the people, you are a traitor to the country. If you don’t let the people be wise, you are a big country luck."

If Ying Fusu were here, he would definitely be surprised.

In his eyes, this uncle who only knows sophistry has such a side.

But Shi Huang did not show the slightest surprise, on the contrary he was very used to it.

He smiled and added a word.

"It's been a long time since I saw you being so serious. It seems that you really care about this matter. Go on, I'm listening."

"There is a saying in "Guanzi": Jun Ming, Believe, Five Senses Su, Shi Lian, Nong Foolish, Business and Worker Will. It is to say what the five types of people in a powerful country should look like. Peasants are ignorant, merchants and artisans are willing to work."

"Here, Guan Zi also thinks that the people's ignorance is better for the country. Zi said: The people can let them do what they want, but they can't let them know. Confucius said: The people can order them, but they can't let them know why they do what they want to do."

The first emperor clasped his index finger upside down, knocked on the table, and interrupted Ying Chengxue again.

"Chengyu, what you said today is a bit off. You just need to persuade me to use your simplified characters, and you don't need to repeat so much. I know what you said, and I have always done it like this—the poor will strengthen the country, Weak people make a strong country.”

"It's easy for me to convince Brother Huang to implement simplified characters. Isn't Brother Huang afraid that there will be no first batch of people who can understand simplified characters, so it will be difficult to spread simplified characters?"

"That's right." The Emperor Shihuang sighed and said, "Your eyes are too far away, and you have already left this era. The simplified characters you designed are really too simple. If you don't say it when it's here, I won't write it down." It counts as words."

"This is indeed the best character for people in the world to learn characters, but it is destined not to spread it. There are not many scholars in the world who will spread it for you. I plan to use Li Si as the main one, and the doctor's office as a supplement. I will simplify the big seal script to Xiaozhuan. To promote the world, I will do it myself. Therefore, all people in the world need to write in Xiaozhuan when they write books, and books are the same as characters."

Half a step ahead is a genius, one step ahead is a madman.

And Ying Chengxi was at least a hundred steps ahead of the Qin Dynasty.

This hundred steps is 2000 years.

"What if I tell Brother Huang that I see farther than what Brother Huang imagined?" Ying Chengxue chuckled and said, "If I train a group of people who can read simplified Chinese characters, Brother Huang will let you Li Si created Xiaozhuan?"

Have trained a group of people who can understand simplified characters?

If this is the case, it will be much easier for the people to learn this language than to learn the language of the seven kingdoms if it is distributed in this simplified character.

It takes five years to understand this text thoroughly, but it takes years to recognize it. In this way, Daqin can be settled at least three years in advance.

Shi Huang's eyes widened in disbelief.

He squeezed Ying Chengxu's hand tightly, and said in a deep and serious voice, "How many people have you taught? If I don't want to make Xiaozhuan, only the number of your Chang'an Junfu's mansion is not enough!"

"Brother Huang just asked me how Tunliu was defeated? I was indeed defeated by Guo Kai's 5000 people, and I did not lie to Brother Huang. But even though I was defeated, none of the 5 people died."

Ying Chengxi stretched out five fingers.

"Can [-] Daqin elites who have thoroughly understood simplified characters take up the job of disseminating simplified characters?"

During the Qin Dynasty, the population of the world was between 500 million and 3000 million.

The ratio of 5 people to the total number of people in the world.

It is between 1:500 and 1:600.

In other words, it seems very difficult to teach 500 or 600 people by one person in order to achieve universal literacy of simplified Chinese characters.

But in fact, it should not be counted in this way.

First of all, the first emperor required the same text in the book, not to require 100% of all people in the world to know simplified characters.

That is tantamount to opening up the wisdom of the people and strengthening the people, which is inconsistent with the idea of ​​weak people that the first emperor has always implemented.

The purpose of the first emperor's letter is to make the people of the six countries no longer think about the six countries, and work together to maintain the rule of the Qin Dynasty.

To do this, the proportion of people who know simplified characters can be controlled within a certain range.

This range is that the original number of literate people in the world can be increased by three to five times-as long as the six languages ​​are suppressed, it is a success.

And to do this, 5 people are enough.

"Enough! Enough! Enough!"

The first emperor looked very excited, and said three times in a row that enough is enough.

Compared with those scholars, the First Emperor trusted the Daqin Ruishi more.

He has a big Qin Ruishi who promotes simplified characters for him and gathers the hearts of the people, so he feels at ease.

"It's good to lose, it's good to lose!"

The First Emperor excitedly walked up and down the study.

"If you are undefeated, how can you hide [-] elite soldiers in Lu Buwei's eyes! Cheng Yu, how did you manage to lose the battle and not die? No, no! The law of Qin stipulates: Generals captured and killed, personal guards They were all executed. How could you not have a single soldier died, you were deliberately captured by Guo Kai?"

What sent Guo Kai to the peak of power, people's support, and the royal family's respect in Zhao was the Battle of Tunliu, where five thousand Zhao troops defeated fifty thousand Qin soldiers.

As soon as the battle of Changping broke out, the resentment accumulated in Zhao Ren's heart.

Let Guo Kai become a national hero of Zhao State, and he has been in power in Zhao State since then.

Could it be that Cheng Yu manipulated Guo Kai's chaos in Zhao?
Ying Chengxue looked at Shi Huang, who was gradually turning back from the excited state, and was immediately driven down by shock as soon as Wisdom took over the high ground.

"It's all about what they need. I will be my No. [-] dandy in Daqin, and he will be his No. [-] God of War in the Warring States Period."

It turned out to be what Cheng Xi did...

How far can Cheng Yu see?
Defeating the battle and destroying Zhao, this kind of warfare is unheard of!

How can Cheng Yu be sure that Guo Kai can rise to the top?
Can Zhao Wangqian be emptied?

Can order the assassination of Li Mu?

Can you sell the country of Zhao and ask for forgiveness?

Is it only possible for Cheng Yu to have a prophet?

The first emperor was still in shock.

Ying Chengxuan didn't take this matter to heart at all.

The world has been settled, and it is time to reverse Brother Huang's thinking.

The nation is weak and the country is strong?

Do not!
The people are rich and the country is strong!

The policy of ignoring the people must never be done again!
"It's not important, let's talk about the topic that we disconnected earlier. I don't agree with the theory of the people who are weak and the country strong. I think they are all wrong."

Ying Chengxi was very regular, knocking on the table again and again, and said with a smile: "Brother Huang, times have changed."
