The first emperor bought wine in Xianyang Palace, and 70 doctors lived in front of him.The servant shot Zhou Qingchen and said: "At that time, the land of Qin was only a thousand miles away. Your Majesty's gods and sages calmed the sea and exiled the barbarians. Under the sun and the moon, they were all obedient. With the princes as counties, everyone is happy, and there is no war. Suffering, passed on to all generations. Since ancient times, it has not been as powerful as His Majesty." Shi Huangyue.Chunyu Yuejin, a doctor of Qi, said: "I heard that the king of Yin and Zhou was more than a thousand years old, and he made his son a meritorious official, and he was a branch assistant. Now your majesty has Hai Nei, and his son is a common man. He has Tian Chang and Liu Qing's ministers, and he has no assistant. Why? Rescue each other? Those who do not learn from the past but can last for a long time are not heard of. Today, Qingchen is flattering His Majesty's faults, and he is not a loyal minister." The first emperor made his proposal.Prime Minister Li Si said: "The five emperors did not return to each other, and the three generations did not attack each other. Each ruled, not the opposite, but the time has changed. Your majesty has created a great cause today, and the merits of the world are not known by foolish scholars. Moreover, Yueyan is the successor of the three generations. What is the law? At a different time, the feudal lords are competing with each other, and they are recruiting and studying. Today, it has been decided, and the decree is issued. The common people are in charge of agriculture and industry, and the scholars are studying laws and regulations. Today, instead of learning from the present, people learn from the past. It's not the current age, and the head of Guizhou is confused. The prime minister Si Mo died saying that the ancient world was in disarray, and there was no one who could be unified. It was written by the princes. The words are all ancient to harm the present. They pretend to be false to confuse the truth. Established by the above. Today the emperor has all the world, don’t decide on one person. Private learning and mutual understanding and illegal teaching. When people hear the order, they will discuss it according to their own learning. If they enter, they will be wrong. Famousness is taken as high, leading the group to create slander. If it is not forbidden, the dominant force will fall to the top, and the party will become the bottom. It is easy to ban. I ask the historian to burn all non-Qin records. It is not the post of a doctoral official. Those who dare to collect poems, books, and languages ​​of a hundred schools of thought in the world will keep them and burn them. Those who dare to write poems and books will abandon the market. If you don’t burn it for the next [-] days, the tattoo will be the city dan. Those who don’t go, the book of medicine, divination and planting trees. If you want to learn laws and regulations, use officials as teachers.” Zhi said: “Yes.”

... Hou Sheng Lu Shengxiang and Mou said: "The first emperor was a man, with a violent nature and self-use. He rose from the princes and took over the world. He wanted to follow him. He thought that he had never been able to match himself since ancient times. He was full-time prisoner, and the prisoner was lucky. Although there are 70 doctors , Special staff are not used. The prime minister and the ministers are all subject to success, relying on the above. The upper music takes punishment and killing as its prestige, and the world fears crimes and keeps rewards. Tolerance. Qin law, can not be both sided, not tested, died. However, there are as many as 300 people who wait for the stars, all of them are good men, afraid of taboo and flattery, and dare not make exaggerations. Everything in the world is determined by the above, no matter how big or small, Up to the point of measuring books by weighing stones, there are signs day and night, and there is no rest if you don’t get the results. If you are so greedy for power and power, you can’t ask for immortal medicine.” So he died.When the first emperor heard of his death, he was furious and said: "I have collected all the books from the world and discarded all those who were not useful. I have called many literary and alchemists. They want to make peace, and the alchemists want to practice in order to find a miracle medicine. Now I heard that the Han people are gone. If you don't report it, Xu Shi and others will spend tens of thousands of dollars, but you will never get the medicine, and you will report it to the public for profit. Lu Sheng and others have given you a lot, and now they are slandering me to emphasize my immorality. Those who were born in Xianyang, I asked people to inquire honestly, or to confuse the head of Guizhou with rumors." So the censor asked all the students about the case, and the biographies of all the students reported to each other, and more than 460 offenders were expelled from Xianyang. To punish later.

In the 34th year of the first emperor, wine was placed in Xianyang Palace, and doctor servant Zhou Qingchen and others praised the first emperor's mighty virtue.Chunyu Yuejin, a man of Qi, remonstrated and said: "I heard that the king of Yin and Zhou was more than a thousand years old, and he entrusted his sons and sons to serve as his assistants. Now your majesty has overseas, and his sons are ordinary people. He has the troubles of Tian Chang and Liuqing. I have no assistants. Why do you save each other? It is unheard of that things can last for a long time without learning from the past. Today, Qing officials and others are flattering His Majesty's mistakes, and they are not loyal officials." The first emperor ordered the prime minister.The prime minister misunderstood it, and he wrote a letter saying: "In ancient times, the world was scattered and chaotic, and there was no way to be one. It was written by the princes. The words are all ancient to harm the present. They pretend to be false to confuse the truth. People are good at what they learn. It was not established by the above. Now Your Majesty owns the world. Don’t choose black and white. Private learning is a system of mutual and illegal teaching. When you hear the order, you will discuss it with your own private learning. If you enter, you will have a wrong heart. It is not the master's name, and the strangeness is considered high, leading the group to create slander. If this cannot be restrained, the master's power will fall to the top, and the party will become the bottom. It is easy to prohibit. I invite you to have a hundred literary "poems" and "books" Those who speak, remove the thorns. Let them go away after thirty days, and the tattoos will be Chengdan. Those who don’t go, the books on medicine, divination and planting trees. If you want to learn, use officials as teachers.” The first emperor can discuss it. Collect the words of hundreds of schools in "Poetry" and "Book" to fool the people, so that the world will never be different from the past to the present.

The eldest son of Si is guarded by Sanchuan, all the men are princesses of Qin, and the women are married to the princes of Qin.Sanchuan Shou Liyou returned to Xianyang, Li Si bought wine at home, all the officials lived in front of him, and there were thousands of chariots and riders in the court.Li Si sighed and said: "Wow! I heard that Xunqing said 'the ban on things is great'. The husband is Shang Caibuyi, the head of Guizhou in Luxiang. He didn't know what he was looking for, so he was promoted here. Today, there is no official position. Those who live in the upper class can be said to be extremely rich. When things are extreme, they will decline, and I don’t know how to tax them!”
