My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 198 Bamboo Chronicles, Yao and Shun abdication (please give me a monthly ticket!)

"When a prince marries a wife, he must marry a strong one."

"I can't talk about this kind of thing."

This is not a modern society. If you fall in love with someone you like, you can bring it directly to your parents and show them, and then you can get married.

And his family is not an ordinary family.

Taking a wife is not the same as taking a concubine, and you cannot do whatever you want.Precisely because you cannot marry a wife as you please, so when you take a concubine and marry another wife, you must choose the one that suits your own mind and the one you like.

"My marriage is not only related to my future. If the world is unified in the future, my wife will be the future queen. Since ancient times, this marriage has been a matter between two families, and it is a matter of foreign relatives intervening in politics. It has been around since ancient times. Once I get married, many things in the future will become unclear."

Seeing how serious the prince was, Xin couldn't help but say, "I only plan things for the prince in the next three to five years, but the prince can plan big things for himself in ten or even 20 years. In this case, I will not make any further comments. The prince decides."

"How did you..." Fusu looked at the letter.

"What's wrong, my minister?"

"Just speak like a minister of the DPRK, just like usual."

Xin paused for a moment and said, "Yes."

I am just a prince, not a king yet.If you don't stop this kind of thing at the beginning, your subordinates will definitely make mistakes in the future.

In Taixue, after Fusu left, Lu Shi and others were all recalling the discussions about legal ethics with the prince one by one.

It's just that in Taixue, a group of Confucian disciples who are small in number but have extraordinary talents have been introduced.

Although the Qin State does not value Confucianism, the disciples of Confucianism are the largest and most widely distributed in the world.

This means that among a hundred people, [-]% are literate, and Confucian disciples account for [-]% of the [-]%.

Once people who are proficient in writing are recruited from the bottom of the Six Kingdoms, there will definitely be Confucian disciples selected.

In the past, they were responsible for organizing texts, copying classics, and producing documents.

However, as the work of sorting and streamlining the text was completed, these people who had been absorbed into the bureaucracy by the Qin officials in the past gradually became attached to the court.

Over time, he established a firm foothold in Qin.

With their efforts and mediation, after the writing rectification was completed, the King of Qin placed them in Taixue at the suggestion of the Prime Minister.

The power struggle in the palace has never stopped. In the past, those who lost the struggle were kicked out, but now most of them are thrown into the Imperial Academy.

A large number of scholars from the Six Kingdoms came to Qin, which was a shock in itself to Qin.

While the various classrooms in Taixue were decorated majestically and magnificently, and the buildings were stern, scholars from other schools were crowded into remote and old palaces. Dozens of people sat around in front of a long case, one by one facing the documents. Everyone is busy with their own work.

Because Fusu proposed to build a large-scale Imperial College to attract scholars from all over the world.Those with vested interests are afraid that if talented people do come, their positions will be squeezed out, so they are firmly opposed to this matter.

So an old palace was converted into an Imperial Academy. As long as the place was not big enough, the number of people who came could be controlled. Whether outsiders could enter the academy would depend on their consent.

Most of the high-ranking officials in the dynasty were Qin Legalists. In order to consolidate their status and suppress various schools of thought, they deliberately renovated and renovated the schools, rebuilt the schools and schools, and equipped the legal historians and school disciples with the best equipment. supply.

Disciples from other schools, however, are second-rate in terms of salary, equipment and conveniences.

Separated by a wall, children in the school are learning to recite Qin rules.

As for these scholars, some of them are organizing books, because the classics and documents of the Six Kingdoms also need someone to collect and organize them, and the Shangshu Desk is such a big place.

Some are copying some collections. There are very few historical books from ancient times.Some of the surviving books have been seriously tampered with by later generations.But fortunately, history has always been recorded not only through words, but also through stories, lyrics, etc. passed down orally.

These people are compiling and writing these things that have been handed down.

The people who came to Qin from Wei State brought with them the history book recorded by Wei State - "Bamboo Book Chronicles".

"Bamboo Book Annals" is a chronological general history written by the historians of the Jin State during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Wei State during the Warring States Period.

Because the authenticity of historical materials is of extremely high value, and many false ethical guidelines have been abandoned, the true history of the past has been recorded.

For example, ancient events such as the abdication of Yao and Shun were examples of benevolence and righteousness that Confucians in the Zhou Dynasty often boasted about.

The Bamboo Chronicle completely overturns and refutes this historical event.

In other history books, it is recorded like this: "In the past, Emperor Yao was clever and thoughtful, and he dominated the world. He was inferior to Yao and Shun."

However, this incident is recorded in the "Bamboo Book Annals": "In the past, Yao's virtue declined and he was imprisoned by Shun. Shun trapped Yao in Pingyang, took the emperor's position, and imprisoned Danzhu again, so that he could not Meet Yao Fu."

This means that Yao's virtue declined and he was imprisoned and controlled by Shun.Shun trapped Yao in Pingyang, seized his throne as emperor, and then trapped him in Danzhu, preventing Yao from meeting Yao's father.

This naked power struggle was beautified by later generations into concession.

Few people in the world have heard of this history book. When it was sent to the Qin State, it quickly attracted the attention of the Qin Dynasty.

In the age of monarchy, as long as the emperor pays attention to it, it will surely develop rapidly.

Everyone in the Qin State, from the King of Qin to the officials, was very interested in this book.

So now these scholars from Wei State are rushing to copy and copy the "Bamboo Book Annals".

In addition, there are other scriptures, such as "Lianshan Yi", "Guizang Yi", etc.

The room was filled with rustling sounds. The pen and ink were wandering and falling on the bamboo slips, and the square characters fell on the bamboo slips one by one.

It suddenly started raining outside.

The rain hit the green bamboos and the hollow bamboo tubes, and there were knocking sounds everywhere.

Someone put the pen down.

"Oh, how did I end up like this? Every day I became a copyist of scriptures."

"It's good to have this. Otherwise, we don't know where we can live today. As a disciple of Confucianism, it is considered comfortable to have such a job in Qin."

As soon as the people in the temple heard this, they inexplicably lost their thoughts on copying the scriptures.

They were all highly respected figures in various countries and respected by thousands of people in the past, but when they arrived in Qin, they became the lowest rank.

"Did you know? The prince came to the school today." Suddenly someone started talking.

When the prince was mentioned, everyone became interested.

The wind and rain continued outside, and a cool breeze came in from the window. The bamboo leaves were blown indoors by the wind.
Everyone put their hands in their sleeves, taking advantage of their laziness to relax and chat casually.

　Another great feature of this book is that I will write about the latest discoveries in literature, history, and archeology, so that readers can live at the forefront of historical exploration.
