Chapter 1516 Burning the Book and Pitting the Witch

When a person is not full, all his thoughts are just how to eat. Once he is full, he has more thoughts."

Changsun Wuji stroked his short beard and said, sitting in front of him was an official with a robe, but he was the son of Chu Suiliang, a famous calligrapher today and the Grand Secretary Chu Liang.

"I don't understand what Ping Zhang means?"

"You are now in the Secretariat, responsible for the Copyright Bureau and master the publishing and distribution of books. Do you know that Your Majesty recently said in Xuanzheng Hall that he would comprehensively accelerate the Chineseization?"

Chu Suiliang nodded, "I heard that the saint said that three years later, all officials, soldiers and even knights, must speak fluent official language, otherwise the consequences will be serious."

"Yes, what is the purpose of the saints to fully promote popularization of Mandarin?"

"The book is the same as the text, and the language is the same as the pronunciation." Chu Suiliang said.

"More than this, the deeper reason is to speed up the sinicization and assimilate all the barbarians and Rongdi conquered in the territory of our Great Qin into the Xia. This is an unprecedented event. The saints are ambitious. Once everyone in the territory of our Great Qin will believe in the God of Haotian, learn Confucianism, and speak Chinese official language, then there will be no Chinese or barbarians, and they will be the same clan and family." Changsun Wuji smiled and said to this official who was extremely accomplished in calligraphy, but was not too smart as an official.

"You are in charge of the Works Bureau of the Secretariat, and you must follow the saint's footsteps and even charge forward."

"What should Ping Zhang want the officials to do? The officials are in charge of the works bureau, regardless of the promotion of the Mandarin."

Changsun Wuji slapped his legs in anger, "How did you wear a robe? You don't have any understanding. You really can't stand the wall. Why did I say to you just now? What's the purpose of promoting Mandarin Chinese? "

"In order to comprehensively accelerate the Chineseization and assimilate the barbarians, there is no difference between the Chinese and the barbarians!"

"Yes, since we know the purpose, then let's look at the methods, is it easy to understand? Promoting Chinese is just a means to this big goal. We can also have other means to speed up the achievement of this goal, such as?"

"For example?" Chu Suiliang asked.

Changsun Wuji sighed, "I really don't know why the saints value you so much, they are as stupid as a wooden man. You are in charge of the Library Bureau of the Secretariat. What is the Library Bureau in charge of?"

"Book publishing, review and editing, as well as identification and investigation of banned books."

"Yes, this is your responsibility. Now, in order to assimilate the Hu Yi barbarians as soon as possible, everyone should work together. Your works must also take the initiative to attack and play a role. For example, those books about barbarians that record the history of Chinese civilization that are not my Chinese, must be investigated and destroyed."

"For example, the various gods and pagans that the barbarians believe in must be forbidden, and all the legends and stories of barbarians must be forbidden."

Chu Suiliang was a little stunned and ecstatic.

"This is not good. The barbarians also have history, legends, and even their own myths and legends. This is also their civilization. Even in some legends and stories of the barbarians, there are history of our Han families, which can be proved by each other. If they destroy and ban them like this, wouldn't that destroy history and civilization?"

Changsun Wuji snorted coldly with a dark face.

"Do you know what civilization is? Do you know what history is? The struggle and conquest between China and the barbarians and barbarians in all directions is history. Civilization is conquest and integration after all. If we continue to keep their civilization and history, then these people will never be able to integrate into us, and then we will always have to confront each other, over and over again, over and over again, and wars and blood will continue. Is this a good thing?"

"Without Qin Shihuang's unification of the six kingdoms, without Qin Shihuang's carriages and books, our descendants of Yan and Huang will continue to split and internal strife, so how can the Qin, Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties come from? If we cannot strengthen our ethnic group and expand our civilization, then our history will be difficult to preserve and inherit."

Conquer other nations, destroy their culture, destroy their history, and assimilate and merge them. This is also the process of history, with the rise and destruction, division and integration of civilizations one after another.

Daqin just hopes to be an initiative and a winner.

"In the sixteen years since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, our Great Qin Dynasty has fought eastward and westward to attack southward and northward, and has captured a great territory. It is a great territory that has never existed in the Qin, Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties. But we still have to stabilize and rule him. Therefore, we must not only conquer and occupy military terms, but also destroy and integrate them from civilization. Otherwise, they will never become part of us. You can do your work."

"But if these books, legends and stories are gone, then a lot of history will be melted away forever."

Changsun Wuji sighed, "You are responsible for checking these books, legends, etc. In short, you will find these things first, and then your works bureau will organize people to collect and organize them, and then copy a few copies, store them in the library of the royal and imperial courts such as Guanwen Hall, seal them and preserve them for future research. Then burn them all to ban them."

"This is not just for you. All the yamen and local governments of the court will do their best. For example, the yamen responsible for religious management such as monks and Taoists will be responsible for banning and demolishing all unofficially recognized gods, temples, temples, Taoist temples, etc., and destroying all evil gods of lewd temples."

All places will even change the place and mountain names that contain these things, and remove all the carvings and wall paintings.

This will be a comprehensive move to burn books and witches.

Changsun Wuji has already made it clear that his purpose is to fully clear the obstacles to the integration of China and the barbarians.

"The only god in the world is Haotian. This is the Emperor of Heaven since ancient times. The emperor of China is the son of the Emperor of Heaven and the Emperor of Humanity. The other gods must be enthroned and awarded by the Emperor of Humanity. Those who are not enthroned and recognized by the Emperor of Humanity are all evil gods and banned."

"What about Buddha and Taoism?" Chu Suiliang asked, Buddhism has been introduced to the Central Plains in the Han Dynasty and has a history of nearly a thousand years. Taoism has developed from Taoism and has now been full of sects and has a huge influence.

"It is necessary to make further rectification, and its doctrines and original purposes must be changed, and it must be integrated into our Han Chinese civilization."

"The same is true for Taoism."

Whether you are Buddha or Taoist, you must recognize that the supreme god in the world is the God of Haotian, and the Emperor of Qin is the son of the Emperor of Heaven and the spokesperson of the world.

No matter what gods and Buddhas are, their status cannot surpass the Heavenly Emperor and the Human Emperor.

Although Buddhism and Taoism can still exist now, it has been greatly restricted. Only Confucianism is now respected by the court.

No matter how stupid Chu Suiliang was, he now knew that with the full beginning of burning books and wizards, Confucianism must be fully implemented to the edges of the Qin Dynasty.
