When Chen Zhi walked, the many books around him seemed to be in line with him, conveying a sense of harmony.

This is the core of the Secretariat, which is the Dongyuan Pavilion, and is known as the East and West Gardens together with the West Garden Pavilion, and is the place where the royal collection of books is.

In this era and even later, books and knowledge are the carriers of humanities and the key to inheriting civilization. However, frequent wars have often caused such carriers to be damaged.

The Emperor of Ancestral Dragon burned books and buried scholars, and countless collections were burned. Later generations couldn't help but feel heartbroken when they remembered them. In addition, the previous bamboo slips were not easy to spread, and paper books were easily damaged. In addition, the difficulty of copying and spreading was shackled, so that books were precious at this time.

Ordinary aristocratic families also have their own collection of books, which are used for family heirlooms. If poor families have collections, they will often be treasures for future generations to practice.

Royal is no exception.

In addition, there were many wars in the Central Plains, and the damage to the books and bamboo slips made many people feel heartbroken and kept writing to remind the court.

Therefore, since the Han Dynasty, the Han court often issued edicts to request books, and there were special institutions and personnel sent out to collect books that were left out, and at the same time, institutions such as the Secretariat were organized and collected.

Therefore, this royal library is of great value. It is also regarded by many people as an opportunity to learn further.

Chen Zhi is no exception.

At this time, he walked past rows of bookshelf, swept through the bookshelf books, and the corresponding content flashed through his heart.

He has been a secretary for more than half a year and spent a lot of his time in it, and used this time to read all the books collected here from beginning to end.

Of course, this is just a simple view, not a comprehending and understanding.

The royal collection is vast, with all-encompassing content and involving many different fonts and languages. It is much more than the books remembered by the book fan of the Wang Family!

It is no wonder that this is the foundation of the entire dynasty, which uses the power of the country, and inherits hundreds of years of heritage.

Even though it has been damaged or lost after war, its total number is huge, and there are many loyal and righteous people who come forward to protect regardless of the threat of war and their lives.

In addition, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and during the Three Kingdoms, the separatist princes, except for one or two, were all from aristocratic families, educated by aristocratic people, and also knew the preciousness of bamboo slips and books. Whether it was out of their original intentions or to buy the hearts of scholars, most princes would pay attention to preserving the carriers of these knowledge.

Under the combined effect of these factors, the books collected in the East and West Gardens of New Han, are huge, with many precious isolated books, which are difficult to find outside, and can only be collected and protected by the administrative power of the country.

Even Chen Zhi could not understand and understand it thoroughly for half a year, but he knew very well that he would not stay here for too long, so he seized the opportunity to remember the contents of the library before transferring to leave.

Yes, relying on Chen Zhi's ability to remember everything, he read all the books by sorting and summarizing them, and remembered most of the contents in them in his heart.

This kind of memory is to swallow it whole, so Chen Zhi also needs to slowly transform these memories like he had previously understood and studied the books in his mind.

He simply sorted out the originally messy books in different categories, sorted out the general categories of classics, history, and collections, divided according to the words of the hundreds of schools, and followed the order of the time, and arranged the layout of the book collections, making it more intuitive and easier to search, and there are documents as a basis. If a book is missing, it can be noticed quickly.

But those who know about these changes are not surprised, because Chen Zhi is good at sorting out this point and has long been famous. He has shown his skills in Qingxu Prefectures, Taile Administration and Honglu Temple. He only thinks it is appropriate for others to do it again in the Secretariat.

However, there are also a group of people who care a lot about this, because based on their own experience, they are very clear that they want to organize their collections and sort them out so that those who have never read or understood can quickly find the corresponding booklets and bamboo slips. How profound is it necessary to do so.

This group of people are great scholars, great scholars, great scholars, and great masters with rich experience and knowledge.

Simply put, at least you have to read it through and become familiar with the contents before you can let go. This is also the difficulty in editing books since ancient times.

But normal people have a pitiful reading volume. If they can read ten thousand words or hundreds of thousands of words, they can be said to be a wise man. If they have one million words, they are wise. They have to organize a national library, library, or even compile a ceremony. The amount of reading involved can be said to be horrifying. In the past, if they wanted to organize such a collection of books, they would have to use more than a hundred people to gather scholars from all walks of life to participate in it.

Recently, there was another rumor that Chen Zhi wanted to compile a classic, but not many people believed it. Instead, he reorganized most of the classics in the East and West Gardens and summarized this matter. It has been seen by many people with their own eyes. It is an irrefutable fact. So many master-level figures came to consult.

These two gardens are royal libraries and are not easily opened to outsiders, but there are exceptions, namely those venerables and elders who have truly become famous.

The New Han Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety and respected the elderly very much. In order to recruit talents, there were many special systems. For example, the royal collection of reading qualifications is one of them. Even in later generations, the establishment of Daxing scientific research institutions still had the only way to recruit talents, let alone now? Therefore, many scholars who could not invite officials had to be attracted to this system.

In addition to facing the emperor and the various officials in the Secretariat, there is another important action, which is to receive and meet the requests and requirements of the elderly from the great scholars.

Due to its dynasty characteristics, anyone who could come to the Secretariat to apply for viewing me was not an ordinary person. He was either a high-ranking official in the past, or a high-ranking official in the past. He also had one thing in common, that is, he studied and became a famous scholar in his studies. He was a recognized master of knowledge!

Such people can't be invited out at ordinary times. They are willing to come over to browse the royal collection, but the royal family is actually unsuccessful!

However, the royal collection of books is still not allowed to be brought out from the two gardens. Therefore, when these great scholars are watching, they will stay in the Secretariat. On the one hand, they are reading books here, and on the other hand, they have relevant needs. When they need to consult other books, they can ask in time. This is also a job that the Secretariat provides.

In the past, many master figures, after obtaining permission, went to the two gardens to find the required books, and then quickly found the target by asking the clerks inside.

However, although the clerk is here, even if he has to understand the general layout in the library in order to be proficient in his business, it is still a tedious task to follow the master's instructions to surpass a book or a volume of bamboo slips from countless collections.

If the master needs a specific work, it will be like choosing one from the stones by the stream. If there are not many people looking for it together, I am afraid that it will not be able to find it for a few days. This is still the Royal Library, after all, if it is familiar with the general layout. Although there is no scientific classification and summary, it also has its own set of sorting systems.

But in fact, it is still a relaxing task to choose one from many books, because if those books that are proposed by everyone are vague concepts or just describe a sentence that requires roughly what kind of content is needed, it is even more painful.

It seems that some masters came here to find a reference or basis for the works they are writing. Then they are likely to make a request to find some requirements with "Three Generations of Governance", "Mohist School", "Lao and Zhuangzi Annotations" and so on.

This is not only necessary to find it, but also to understand it. Otherwise, it took several hours and the content found by many people did not meet the requirements, which would undoubtedly make the result even more uncomfortable.

But when Chen Zhi came over, the situation became a little different again.

At first, the masters who came here seemed a little unhappy about changing the secretary's supervisor, because Huang Si, who was on the job, did have two tricks and had his own outstanding features. Otherwise, he would not be able to sit in such a seat. For those masters who came to find classics, a secretary's supervisor who was familiar with classics would undoubtedly save a lot of trouble and effort.

Once people in this position change, they will have to worry about what will affect themselves.

But what happened next surprised them, because Chen Zhi only took a few days to identify books everywhere. After a month, he roughly sorted out the books, and after three months, he determined the general classification. Now half a year has passed, and there are rumors that he is going to compile a ceremony!

Others may not believe it, but those masters who come here often know that groundlessness may not be without cause. Besides, they have already experienced Chen Zhi's power. No matter what classics they ask about or what kind of documents they want to find, as long as they ask Chen Zhi, he doesn't even need to get it in person. Just give me an order and send someone to the book and bamboo slips you need!

In addition, Chen Zhi himself is a treasure house. Sometimes he can get the words he wants from his mouth without looking for classics. So in recent times, those masters who are difficult for others to see often come over to talk to Chen Zhi, but they often call a few servants to record what Chen Zhi said.

It's like the old man in front of him, Guo Xiang, the master of Taoism and metaphysics.
