Daqin: Confucianism, Law, and Taoism

Huan Wei rubbed these bamboo papers in his hand, and after thinking about it, he asked, "... What can you make of rattan paper? "

The raw materials of papermaking are divided into hemp, leather, rattan, and bamboo, and the quality and difficulty are almost in the same order.

But since the most advanced technology is directly available, the first two types of hemp and skin of nature are directly skipped and do not need to be made.

Although rattan paper is of better quality than bamboo paper, its manufacturing cost is too high, it is not suitable for large-scale use, and can only be circulated in a small area.

Bamboo paper is much cheaper to manufacture and is suitable as commonly used paper.

Of course, there is also rice paper, known as the king of paper, known as thousand-year-old paper, but the manufacture of rice paper is another process, and the raw materials required are more special.

Xuan paper needs the best green sandalwood trees are unique to southern Anhui, that is, in the territory of the Chu State, unless the Qin State knocks down the Chu State, those raw materials need to be obtained by commerce.

Therefore, for the time being, good rice paper cannot be made.

Li Si heard Huan Wei's question and replied, "... Lord, the rattan paper you mentioned has not yet been made. "

"However, these bamboo paper processes have been perfected, and the workers have experience, and it should not take long to make samples from the paper made from rattan."

Huan Wei nodded in satisfaction and asked again, "... What happened to the caravan I asked you to form? "

Li Si reported in detail: "... The caravan had been formed, and they had been sent to the Chu Kingdom according to Junshang's request to buy green sandalwood and sugar cane that Junshang wanted, and it had been three months now. "

"However, the caravan is going to the Chu Kingdom, the road is far away, plus the acquisition time, when the caravan returns to the Qin Kingdom, I am afraid it will take some time."

"I've been paying attention to this matter, but rest assured."

Li Si didn't know what Huan didn't want those things to do, but as a qualified subordinate, he wouldn't ask about those things, just did what the sovereign asked.

Listening to Li Si's answer, Huan Wei felt more and more that it was good to have a capable subordinate.

Otherwise, if he does these things himself, it is not that he cannot do them, but he will spend a lot of energy on these things every day.

Many things are said and done are completely two concepts, and the energy and physical strength required to move the lips and really put into practice, are completely different.

It is no wonder that many emperors in ancient and modern times hope to have a courtier who can do things, Qianlong knows that Helong is very greedy, but he still wants to use him, because Helong can really do things!

This made Huan Wei think of Brother Zheng again, Brother Zheng can be said to be hands-on in political affairs, the ugly description is not to let go of power, and the better is to be diligent.

But no matter what kind of description, there is one thing that cannot be escaped, that is-tired!

Moreover, Huan Zheng did not know that Ying Zheng did not know martial arts at all, only some superficial handles, and he did not have the kung fu to practice internal skills every day, let alone maintain health.

Huan Wei almost dared to conclude that with the way of life of Ying Zheng, he would inevitably live for a short time in this era, and he would definitely tire himself to death in the end.

He has always insisted on practicing the inner strength of the spiritual method, and he will not exhaust his gods every day, and he will inevitably live longer than Yingzheng.

Political struggles are actually unpretentious, and the easiest way to win political struggles is to live longer than the other side.

As long as you boil the enemy to death, then you are the real victor.

This is also the path that Huan Wei originally envisioned for himself, to survive the death of Brother Zheng, and then take over the Qin State by himself.

At that time, Huan Wei did not think that he could let the Qin State have a foundation of ten thousand worlds, as long as he could make the Qin State like the Han Dynasty in his own hands, it was enough to persist for hundreds of years.

But with the arrival of Goldfinger, Wenwei's thoughts also changed.

Before Huan Wei had never thought of changing the world too much on his own, it was difficult to do it even if he sat in the position of emperor alone.

Just like this papermaking technique, who really understands that craft for normal traversers? Too few people understand, let alone some other technologies.

The precipitation of technology with thousands of years of history, which one person can master all.

Now it's different, if you can't recall every memory detail in your mind, then the change of technology doesn't need to take too many detours.

Coupled with the fact that he vaguely felt that he could get immortality, then the future path he had conceived for himself before was too petty.

Brother Zhengwei's pattern is bigger than Brother Zheng, who wants the cause of the Qin Kingdom, and what he wants is the cause of the Chinese nation!

The Qin State can one day disappear into the long river of history, but the Chinese nation must always stand tall in the world.

And the main thing is that he now feels capable of doing it!

"I will stay by my child's side these days, and notify me when the rattan paper is made."

Huan Wei firmed his inner thoughts, and his mouth was also commanding Li Si.

"Whoosh!"

Li Si quickly answered.

"Are the brushes and ink I need ready?"

Huan Wei asked again.

This four treasures of the literary room is a set, one of them has been studied, and the others must also be studied.

Lees said: "... It has already been made, and it is waiting for the evaluation of the king. "

Huan Wei nodded in satisfaction.

These are improved brushes and inks that work better and are more suitable for paper than bamboo.

......

Ten days later, Xianyang Palace -

Huan Wei took the manufactured pen, ink and paper and inkstone to Xianyang Palace to prepare to meet Brother Zheng.

As usual, Ying Zheng was kneeling in front of the desk and was reviewing the recital, and the eunuchs and palace maids walked carefully, not daring to move the bamboo Jane for him out loud.

Gai Nie was like a gentle bodyguard, silently standing behind Huan Wei to guard him.

Looking at the mountains of bamboo Janes, Huan Wei sighed in his heart: Brother Zheng, soon you won't have to face these bamboo Janes in the dark!

With paper, with the diligence of winning the government, the speed of handling government affairs will inevitably be greatly improved, and it will be several times higher.

But the consequence of this may be that winning politics will be more tiring.

After all, if you just watch the recital, it will not be tired, and the most tiring thing is to think and review after reading the recital, which is the most energy-consuming.

After having the paper, there will only be more recitals approved by Ying Zheng, which makes Huan Weidu wonder if Brother Zheng will die a few years earlier than in history?

Hey, come on, increase the amount of medicine for the son of Huan Zheng!

When Huan Zheng, who was reviewing the review, saw that Huan had not arrived, he put down the bamboo Jian, let the eunuchs move away, and said with a smile: "... The third brother hadn't come to Xianyang Palace for a while. "

"The Empress Dowager has been nagging you, and asked Lonely to go to Chang'an to find you, and you will go to Ganquan Palace for a walk in a while."

Seeing that Huan Wei and his mother now have such a good relationship, Huan Zheng was also happy in his heart, because he could feel that the Empress Dowager seemed to really intend to let him go and let him crown!

And this must be the credit of Weiwei, if there is no Weiwei's daily companionship, how can the Queen Mother be so happy?

"Brother Chen, obey!"

Huan Wei arched his hand.

Accompanying Zhao Ji is actually quite tired, but Zhao Ji is also a good person, as long as she is happy, it is good to fool, and Huan Wei is now also familiar with the road.

"The third brother has been in his own fiefdom recently, what happened to coming to Xianyang Palace this time?"

Ying Zheng asked the eunuch to bring cushions and desk tables, and the two brothers sat face to face and sat on their knees and talked.

Huan Wei smiled and said, "... This time, I came to have two good things to tell Brother Wang. "

Ying Zheng said with a gentle face, "... Oh? That's really a coincidence, Lonely just happens to have two good things to tell the third brother. "

Huan Wei made an inviting gesture and said, "... Then ask Brother Wang to speak first. "

"I heard that ten days ago, the third brother was happy with a daughter?" Ying Zheng asked.

Chang'an was originally in the southern suburbs of Xianyang, and at this distance, it is estimated that when Xiao Yan'er was just born, Ying Zheng already knew it.

"Exactly, that is my eldest daughter, named Yan, my brother became a father for the first time, and his mind is also complicated and happy."

Huan Wei replied.

Ying Zheng also smiled: "'... Just three days after the third brother got a daughter, Gu Ye also had a daughter, named Yin Yan. "

Huan Wei was stunned when she heard this, it turned out to be the famous Yangzi princess, but she didn't expect that she was also born.

The first emperor had about thirty-three children, but the only princess whose name was known to later generations was Huan Yinyan.

Its name is Yin Yan, also known as Yangzi, and Yangzi should be a title.

The name Yin Yan sounds too heavy Yin, and it is reasonable to give a Yangzi title to neutralize it.

During the Han Dynasty, the title of princess was selected from the name of the county, which was also regarded as a princess fief, as for the pre-Qin dynasty, it was not so troublesome, because most princesses did not have titles.

Huan Wei thought in his heart and said with a smile: "... That's really fate, when they grow up, they can get closer to their sisters. "

Huan Zheng nodded with a smile, followed by his slightly serious expression, and said: "... The second thing was that the Yin and Yang family from the Chu State was preparing to defect to the Qin State. "

Huan Wei frowned and said, "... Defecting to the State of Qin? It seems that the Yin Yang family is ready to bet on chips, how are they going to surrender, how are the chips geometric, and what can they bring to my Qin Kingdom? "

Huan Wei pointed to the core of the problem, that is, what benefits the Yin Yang family could bring to the Qin Kingdom.

For one of the hundred families to come to join, Ying Zheng and Huan Wei are very calm, after all, whether it is a public loser or a famous person, they have long defected to the Qin State.

Ying Zheng said lightly: "... The Yin-Yang family said that they wanted to join the family as a family, and they had already brought a large number of (Li Hao) Yin-Yang family disciples to Xianyang. "

"However, the leader is the Dongjun of the Yin-Yang family, not the leader of the Yin-Yang family, Donghuang Taiyi."

Huan Wei sneered: "... Donghuang Taichi? It's really a big breath, the State of Chu pays attention to sacrifice, and worships the Eastern Emperor Taiyi as the supreme god, even if it is the King of Chu and the nobles of the Chu State, they must sacrifice the Eastern Emperor. "

"That leader of the Yin-Yang family is known as the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, isn't he asking the Chu Kingdom to sacrifice him? It seems that the Yin-Yang family is quite low-key in the Chu State, otherwise the Chu State would have sent an army to destroy the Yin-Yang family. "

"I even doubt that the Yin Yang family can't stay in the Chu Kingdom, so they want to come to my Qin Kingdom."

After a pause, Huan Wei said again: "... But it's not bad, even the supreme god worshiped by the State of Chu has to submit to my Qin State, and it is not far from the submission of the State of Chu. "

When Huan Zheng heard this, he smiled and looked happy, he liked to hear the words that the State of Chu should also submit to the State of Qin.

After laughing enough, Ying Zheng asked again: "... Can the third brother know something about the Yin-Yang family? "

Without thinking for a while, Huan said, "... But I understand that when I was in Little Sage Zhuang, I looked all over the Confucian library and had a basic concept of the hundred schools. "

Ying Zheng's upper body leaned forward, with a posture of listening sideways.

Seeing this, Huan Wei understood that Huan Zheng wanted to learn more about the Yin Yang family from himself, and then decided to give the Yin Yang family status.

When the Yin Yang family comes to surrender, of course, the Qin Kingdom will accept it, but whether it is to be given attention depends on what ability the Yin Yang family has.
