Chapter 324 The New Year's greeting of the Qin Dynasty
When Yao Zhi and others were on missions to the Peacock Kingdom and had not yet arrived at the Peacock Kingdom, Li Nian was in court in the Qin Dynasty.
He did not come to court often, but today is different because today is a special day. On the first day of December, the First Emperor held the ceremony of Emperor's title this day last year.
It not only represents the First Emperor as emperor for a year, but also represents the past year for the Qin Dynasty.
This year was the year when Daqin adjusted its national policy, rebuilt its strategic layout, and revitalized new opportunities. As an important designer of Daqin's reform, he naturally had to participate in this court meeting.
Today's court meetings are very different from those in normal times. Ministers wear newly-launched court suits, and the patterns and patterns on them have changed compared to last year's court suits.
It’s a new year. Wear new clothes in the new year and have a new look.
At the same time, this is also a New Year's benefit to the ministers, and Li Nian is no exception, wearing a black prince's uniform just given by the First Emperor.
Today's ministers are also very harmonious, and all civil and military officials have temporarily put aside their past prejudices.
Everyone knows that today is the first anniversary of the First Emperor's reign as emperor. If you are fighting today, it will not give the First Emperor face.
Only Chunyu Yue, who is a stubborn and unkind person, may jump out of the world without looking at the situation and ruin everyone's interest.
But according to Li Nian's observation, Dr. Chunyu did not seem to have the intention to jump out, but he was quite happy.
This person seems to have changed a little over the past year and is no longer as ironic as recorded in history.
Maybe they work at the China Administration and Administration Bureau, which allowed them to get more in touch with the public news and know that some of their original ideas were not in line with reality, and that some of the things they thought they could not govern the country well.
But this is a good thing. From a broad perspective, even people like Chunyu Yue can change, which proves that the Qin Dynasty is developing in a positive direction. From a small perspective, his arrival saved these Confucian scholars in disguise and resolved the tragedy of "burning books and burying scholars".
Even Chunyu Yue was very happy, and other civil and military ministers naturally looked joyful, filled with a joyful atmosphere.
This feeling of joy can easily remind people of the modern Spring Festival, but in fact, the first day of December can be considered as the Spring Festival of the Qin Dynasty.
Because during the ceremony of Emperor's reign last year, the First Emperor set this day as the New Year.
In original history, this day was the first day of October, but due to Li Nian, the First Emperor's proclaimed emperor was delayed by two months.
Today's dynasty meeting was not only the civil and military officials of the Qin Dynasty, but there were many other people, but like the civil and military officials of the Qin Dynasty, they had not entered the hall and were waiting outside.
Li Nian saw the Naval Academy team led by Meng Tian, the Liuying Academy team where Han Xin and Ying Shunying were located, the various schools of thought, the Daqin craftsman team, the various counties, the representatives sent by the princes of the Daqin who were kings everywhere, the Daqin International Academy team, the team representing the Huns, and the Baiyue team...
In addition to the Xiongnu and Baiyue, some countries in Donghu, Yuezhi, and Wusun also sent missions, but there were not many people and had not formally established diplomatic relations with the Qin Dynasty.
Both Shihuang and Li Nian knew what he was thinking about. Due to some of the movements made by Daqin in the past year, they wanted to come over to find out the details of Daqin.
The people in the Donghu and Yuezhi team were staring at each other with the people in the Huns, but no one destroyed the festive atmosphere today.
As an eunuch shouted loudly, "The auspicious time has arrived, and all the ministers will meet", the civil servants were led by Prime Minister Wang Wan and the military generals led by Wang Jian, and entered the Zhangtai Palace.
I saw that the main hall of Zhangtai Palace was also decorated, with a red carpet and many festivals before it was arranged.
For example, the lamps in the hall are made of red lampshades, with various rare beast patterns symbolizing good fortune and wishful thinking, and New Year's greetings left by the ministers.
Of course, this was proposed by Li Nian. Since it was a festival, there should naturally be a festival atmosphere, but the effect was surprisingly good, and all the civil and military officials were willing to accept and participate.
After entering the hall, Wang Wan and Wang Jian led the civil and military officials of the Qin Dynasty to pay a great gift to the First Emperor, and delivered a New Year greeting to the First Emperor.
"My minister Wang Wan (My minister Wang Jian) wishes Your Majesty a long life, good weather, and peace in the world!"
The First Emperor was wearing a new robe and sat on the dragon throne and watched the ministers send New Year greetings to him, and smiled and said, "All the ministers are calm. The Qin Dynasty has today, and I have today. I rely on the help of the ministers. I hope that this year, our monarchs and ministers can still work together to make the Qin Dynasty stronger!"
Under the leadership of Wang Wan and Wang Jian, the ministers responded in unison: "I will do my best to make the Qin Dynasty stronger!"
After the ministers stood up and stood in the hall, Meng Tian brought the students from the Naval Academy into the hall and sent a New Year greeting to Emperor Qin: "All the teachers and students of the First Naval Academy in the Great Qin wish Your Majesty a long life and a prosperous life, and a prosperous future for the Qin Dynasty, and a prosperous country and a peaceful and peaceful people!"
Meng Tian did not take the initiative to lead the Naval Academy team in the sequence of civil and military affairs of the Qin Dynasty.
The First Emperor smiled and said, "You are the foundation of my future navy in Qin. I hope you will study hard and strive to improve. In the future, you will expand the sea boundary of the Great Qin for me and protect the Taiping of the Great Qin sea area!"
Meng Tian led the representatives of teachers and students of the Naval Academy and said, "We will live up to your Majesty's expectations, study hard, open up the sea frontier for the Qin Dynasty, and protect the coastal defense!"
Hearing this conversation, the Gentile representatives outside the hall all felt secretly in their hearts. The Qin Dynasty is now very strong, but it may not be a good thing for them to have such high spirits.
With such a powerful neighbor as Daqin, there is a tiger beside him. Although the tiger has not eaten humans, who will say it in the future?
Han Xin and Ying Shunying led a group of students from the Liuying Academy into the hall and sent a New Year's greeting to the Shihuang: "All the students of the Liuying Academy wish Your Majesty endless blessings and longevity and endless merits. May the Qin Dynasty be safe in the new year and all the people live in peace in the new year."
The First Emperor glanced at Han Xin, then at his daughter who served as the representative of the school, and smiled and said, "Pingsheng, I have heard Li Nian talk about a magnificent article called "Young Chinese Talk". Some of the words are particularly memorable. Today, I will give you this magnificent article!"
This made Li Nian, who was in the hall, feel a little embarrassed, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. If this thing was spread by the First Emperor today, it would definitely be considered to be what he did.
When he heard that it was Li Nian, the representatives of the students in the Liuying Academy immediately became very interested, especially Han Xin and Ying Shunying: one believed that this was done by Master Li, and the other believed that this was done by her future husband...
The ministers were also very interested and wanted to know what kind of articles this Prince Li Nian wrote, which was actually called the Majesty Xiongwen by His Majesty.
Meng Tian smiled and noticed Li Nian's twitching corners of his mouth. This should not have been done by Li Nian, but by other people in later generations, but in today's Great Qin, it has to be done by Li Nian.
Emperor First Emperor said: "The word 'China' came from the Zhou Dynasty. It originally referred to Zhou, but now it also refers to me, Daqin and China. Could it be that my Daqin cannot deserve the name 'China'?"
No one answered this question, and the First Emperor did not need anyone to answer it. He said: "In this heroic article, the young man was called the 'red sun' and 'blush tiger'. The red sun rose, and the road was bright. The river flowed out and poured out into the ocean..." The First Emperor did not tell the full text of "Theory of the Young Chinese" by Li Nian, but instead intercepted and modified the content. For example, "The Hidden Dragon and Tengyuan" was not suitable for describing young students in this era.
Dragons are often considered sacred and related to emperors. They describe young students as "hidden dragons" and say they have the posture of emperors?
But even the revised "Theory of Youth in China" still attracts everyone, and the artistic conception of the youth's spirit, vitality and all things are thriving through the words.
The boys are so good. Their future is still long. The road of life has officially started, and there are still many expectations.
After giving the revised version of "Theory of Youth in China" to the students of Liuying Palace, the First Emperor smiled and said, "You are the promising young men of the Great Qin Dynasty. I hope that this is just like this, 'Young people will be wise when they are wise when they are young, the country will be rich when they are young, and the country will be strong when they are strong when they are young.' To grow up to be the pillars of my Great Qin and cast a stronger and greater Great Qin!"
The representatives of the students of the Six Ying Palace were very excited. His Majesty the Emperor had too deep expectations for them and actually gave this article to them as a New Year gift.
There is no better New Year's gift than this!
Han Xin and Ying Shunying led them and said, "We will never let down the expectations of Your Majesty. We will become a promising young man in the Qin Dynasty and work hard for the strength of the Qin Dynasty!"
The Gentiles who heard these words outside the hall felt even heavier. This "Theory of Young China" is a good article, but unfortunately it would have been better if it didn't happen in Daqin.
Daqin is already so strong in this generation. If their descendants continue to be strong, what would be wrong?
Many people envied the Xiongnu students and Baiyue tribes in the representative team of Daqin International Academy. How great it would be if they were also students of the Liuying Academy.
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
Then they will not only grow in a powerful country, but will also be highly expected by His Majesty the Emperor of Qin. This powerful article will also be their New Year’s gift. What a glory it is!
The various schools of thought represented by Chu Mo's master and Zhuang Huang entered the hall.
During this year, the various schools of thought realized that the school of thought would eventually be under the management of the Qin Dynasty. The Qin Dynasty's future model will accommodate the school of thought. The Qin Dynasty allows them to continue to exist, but will no longer use the one-only study to govern the country.
The Qin Dynasty chose to combine useful things in the various schools of thought and would not be reversed according to their wishes.
The idea of "demolishing other families and respecting our family alone" will be difficult to realize. They must make corresponding changes and cannot stick to the rules and keep up with the development of the Qin Dynasty.
Otherwise, even if the Qin Dynasty set up a hundred academies and allowed them to exist, they will eventually be eliminated by the times.
Representatives of various schools of thought said in unison: "Daoist Zhuang Huang (Han Zheng, a Legalist) wishes Your Majesty a great military and prosperous country, and wishes the great Qin Kingdom a prosperous future without disasters or disasters!"
The First Emperor nodded: "Plain, you are all useful talents in the Qin Dynasty. Although some of you are not an official, you are also doing your best for the Qin Dynasty. Last year, the textbooks and dictionaries have all the achievements. I will not forget your achievements, the Qin Dynasty will not forget, and the people in the world will not forget!"
"I hope you will continue to do your best to make great efforts for the Qin Dynasty this year, and I wish you all the best in the New Year, the prosperity of a hundred schools of thought, and the writing of a new chapter for the Qin Dynasty and China!"
The latter sentence "can continue writing new chapters of various philosophers for the Qin Dynasty and China" directly hit the hearts of the representatives of the hundreds of schools. His Majesty the Emperor had too high expectations for them and actually believed that they could continue writing classics of various philosophers.
But no one would say that they could not do so at this time, and they all said excitedly: "I will live up to Your Majesty's expectations!"
Next is a representative team composed of the Qin craftsmen. The reason for the craftsman team was proposed by Li Nian.
Because he plans to improve the status of the Qin craftsmen next year, this year, and establish the Qin Engineering Academy.
The status of scientists and engineers is too low, which is not conducive to the normal development of a country.
If the Qin Dynasty wants to maintain its long-term strength, if China in this world wants to continue to lead other nations and countries, it must pay attention to craftsmen and form a convention so that future generations can follow it.
You can't think you can't get on the table when you talk about skills, and you can't think you're ashamed to be a craftsman. If you see fine techniques, you can say "strange skills and tricks".
These craftsmen are basically craftsmen from the Liuying Industrial Zone. They have seen the First Emperor, but the atmosphere today still makes them nervous.
After entering the hall, the craftsmen representatives quickly bowed and gave him a congratulation: "I wish Your Majesty good health, good fortune and longevity, and wish the Qin Dynasty a prosperous grain and a happy life in the world!"
Looking at the reserved and nervous craftsman, the First Emperor smiled and said, "Everyone is fair! I can have today, and I can make an indelible contribution to the Qin Dynasty!"
"Some people think that you have made little contributions, some people look down on you, and think that you are despicable, but I think you have made great contributions. No one, and the Qin Dynasty has no today!"
"It is because of you that our soldiers of the Qin Dynasty can have excellent soldiers and armor. It is because of you that our soldiers of the Qin Dynasty can build palaces, city gates, and farming tools and carrying tools."
"I want to set up the Daqin Engineering Academy this year. As long as it meets the standards, I can join it. I am a member of the official position. I want to let people know that you are not despicable people, but meritorious ministers of the Daqin!"
This shocked some ministers. He did not expect that His Majesty would announce such news at this time. This move is obviously to improve the status of craftsmen, but in fact, there were signs of this incident last year.
This matter was probably mentioned to Your Majesty by Mr. Li Nian. From the one who raised the study of things and mathematics, he knew that there might be such a day.
Perhaps in the future, many officials will be craftsmen.
But the ministers did not have much opinion, and the reason was that. This was an era that was almost like a blank paper. There was not so much constraints in doing things, and people had not yet developed some bad ideological habits later.
The craftsman representatives were very excited when they heard that the First Emperor would set up the Qin Dynasty Engineering Academy to set up their name.
This is a great thing for them. From now on, not only will their social status be improved, but they will also have a broader path to promotion and can benefit their descendants.
The craftsmen immediately kowtowed and thanked him, "Thank you Your Majesty, thank you Your Majesty, thank you Your Majesty for your great kindness!"
The First Emperor said, "No need to thank you. Make better utensils for the Qin Dynasty and develop better skills. Let me strengthen my Qin Dynasty and become more prosperous. I am the best thanks to me and Qin Dynasty!"
"I hope that one day, my craftsmen of the Qin Dynasty can build a giant ship like a mountain that sails above the vast ocean, create a supreme weapon that can fly in the sky, and create a car that can travel thousands of miles a day..."
