After writing the financial review and the post-market review training, he continued to write for everyone!
Friend, are you touched? Even Long Jiuxiao was touched.
If you like Long Jiuxiao and Long Jiuxiao's novels, then hurry up and give me the flowers and monthly votes. Don't just talk and not practice!
All talk and no action. Practicing and talking was the real deal.
It's almost the end of the month. Don't forget to give your remaining monthly votes to Long Jiuxiao!
Even if he didn't invest or give it, it would be a waste. Otherwise, it would automatically be reset at the beginning of next month!
Embezzlement and waste were both serious crimes. Don't waste it.
Long Jiuxiao was very grateful!
Li Si was also considered a weirdo. At least in the society back then, he was too materialistic!
People studied to cultivate their moral character, govern the country, and pacify the world. Li Si did it for his status and selfish desires.
To put it bluntly, it was all for the sake of standing out and seeking a good future! However, Li Si was more direct!
It could be said that scholars who were influenced by Confucianism were a little shy and secretive, but Li Si was blatantly (not a typography, everyone understood) and did not hide anything. He said,"I'm a hooligan, who am I afraid of?"”Virtue!
He was learning the Art of Emperor from Xun Zi, a famous teacher in the world. When he bid farewell to his teacher after completing his studies, he said something inspiring and shocking,
"Therefore, there is no greater insult than humiliation, and no greater sorrow than poverty."
Translated to:
The greatest shame was being lowly, and the greatest sorrow was being poor.
The meaning was very obvious. Teacher, I want to stand out and change my destiny. I just want to be a rice-eating hamster.
People could not live in a lowly environment. There was no greater humiliation than being lowly. What I wanted was glory and wealth. There was no greater sorrow than poverty. Why did these words sound so familiar? Why did they sound like words of encouragement for the media?
Being in a lowly position and poor environment for a long time, but still righteously criticizing society, hating fame and fortune, pretending to be noble, and flaunting that he was aloof from the world, this was too hypocritical. This was not the original wish of scholars. Therefore, I will go to the west to persuade the King of Qin.
These words not only reflected his desire to make a difference, but also expressed Li Si's desire for wealth and glory.
Li Si really did it! Unlike some people who were all talk and no action. Li Si was the real deal when he practiced and talked.
Li Si had indeed gone to the State of Qin to fight and finally became the Prime Minister of the State of Qin.
He had always believed that although he was just a commoner in Chu, after learning and mastering the "Imperial Art", he should make full use of it and then seek a better status and life for himself. He studied the situation of the six states and finally decided to go to the Qin State to assist Ying Zheng. This was a wise choice!
At the end of the Warring States Period, it was a historical period where the vassals fought for hegemony, heroes fought for supremacy, and war was supreme. Li Si relied on his keen vision as a politician, his broad mind, extraordinary military strategy, and excellent strategies to assist the King of Qin in annexing the six countries and unifying them. He established the first powerful empire in history, a powerful feudal dynasty with a central system, and became a prime minister for thousands of years.
Li Si had made outstanding contributions to the establishment and development of the Qin Dynasty. He was respected by later generations and was known as the " Prime Minister for all eternity."
Li Si's master was the famous scholar, Xun Zi. Xun Zi was the master of all schools of thought.
Xun Zi's ideas were largely based on Legalism and had a great impact on Li Si! Therefore, Li Si was able to propose many relevant legal measures, including criminal punishment. Don't forget, Li Si had mainly learned about imperial politics.
When he arrived in Qin, King Zhuang Xiang of Qin (the father of Qin Shihuang) passed away. Li Si requested to be the servant of Lu Buwei, Marquis Wenxin of Qin.
To put it simply, he had sought refuge with the most powerful official of the Qin State, Prime Minister Lu Buwei.
His goal was obvious. He hoped to meet the King of Qin through Lu Buwei. Lu Buwei admired Li Si's talent and recommended him to the King of Qin, Ying Zheng. It was only then that Li Si had the chance to come into contact with Ying Zheng.
After meeting the King of Qin, Li Si knew that the King of Qin was eager to unify the world, so he explained his views on unifying the six countries to the King of Qin and was deeply approved by the King of Qin.
The King of Qin also felt that Li Si was a rare talent, so he appointed Li Si as the chief historian and kept him working by his side. Li Si made a leap from a dirty rat to a granary rat.
Because Han Feizi was an obstacle to Li Si's career, it might weaken Qin.
After Li Si plotted to kill Han Feizi, he spared no effort and loyally assisted the King of Qin. He offered the plan to destroy the six countries and unify them. He first made plans to help the King of Qin unify the six countries.
Qin Shihuang listened to his plan. Both roping in and assassinating.
Secretly sending some strategists with gold and jade treasures to various countries to lobby. Those who could bribe talented and famous figures in various countries should be bribed with gifts. Those who couldn't be bribed would be assassinated with a sharp sword.
These strategies to drive a wedge between the monarch and his subjects of the vassal states quickly worked, intensifying the internal contradictions of each country and laying a good foundation for accelerating the process of unification.
Then, the King of Qin sent his army to attack. The king of Qin promoted Li Si to a guest minister.
Li Si would have more opportunities to display his talents if he could work beside the King of Qin, and his room for advancement would also increase.
After Lu Buwei's fall, the State of Qin ordered him to leave. Li Si benefited from this misfortune. He was appreciated by the King of Qin with his 'Letter of Expulsion' and became the king's favorite.
It was quite good to have such a language in the "Letter of Expulsion"!
Mount Tai was able to pile up so tall because it did not reject soil. Rivers and oceans never picked on small streams to become so vast and deep. Only by not abandoning the masses could the person who achieved the royal industry show his great kindness.
A vast land produces more grain, a large country produces more people, and a strong army produces brave soldiers.
At present, it is impossible to expel foreign guests to support the enemy, to harm the people to increase the hatred of the enemy, to make the vassals feel empty inside and resentful outside, and to hope that the country will not be in danger.
Therefore, the King of Qin changed his mind and revoked the order to expel Li Si. Not only did he restore Li Si's official position, but he also promoted him to the position of Tingwei.
Li Si spent most of his life practicing Legalism. After he was put in an important position by the King of Qin again, he assisted the King of Qin to complete the great cause of unifying the six countries with his outstanding political talent and foresight, following the trend of historical development.
From 230 B.C. to 221 B.C., the State of Qin used only 10 years to destroy the six states of Qi, Chu, Wei, Zhao, Yan, and Han, pacifying the world, ending the situation of the feudal lords 'separation for hundreds of years, and finally unifying the world.
It was not an exaggeration to say that Qin Shihuang's ability to unify the six countries was largely due to Li Si. Of course, Qin Shihuang's reward was also very generous!
The King of Qin was also grateful for Li Si's loyalty and contribution, so Qin Shi Huang appointed Li Si as the Prime Minister. He had given him the greatest gift and honor.
Li Si had also completed his transformation from a dirty rat to a hamster. He could not eat rice anymore, but he could now eat meat!
The competitive and cold Li Si relied on his own hard work, seized the opportunity, and finally climbed from an unknown minor official to the Prime Minister of Great Qin, who was above everyone else. He achieved a shocking career comeback.
[Note: Prime Minister is the general term for the highest administrative officer in ancient China, equivalent to our current Prime Minister.]
There were also many official titles for prime ministers, such as prime minister, prime minister, chief minister, secretary of state, minister of state, and so on.
After he met Qin Shihuang, he tried his best to use his ability to lobby and flatter him. He used what he had learned in his daily life and quickly rose from Sheren to Chief Secretary, Tingwei, and Prime Minister.
He could take a look at Li Si's business card.
[Profession: Small Official of Chu State in the Early Stage, Prime Minister of Qin Empire in the Later Stage]
Hobbies: Reading, writing
[Specialties: Lyricist, composer, flatterer, bootlicker (flattering the emperor)]
Teacher: Xun Zi
Classmate: Han Feizi
After the establishment of the Qin Dynasty, Li Si was promoted to Prime Minister. He continued to assist Qin Shihuang and made an indispensable contribution to consolidating the regime of the Qin Dynasty, maintaining the unity of the country, and promoting the development of economy and culture.
Because the vassal states had been divided for hundreds of years. The world was a mess. Every vassal state had its own set of standards, and they formed their own words and weights.
After Qin Shihuang unified the country, he found that the weights and measures of the country were in a mess and were not unified. It brought great inconvenience to the lives of the residents of the country, and there were constant disputes.
Therefore, Qin Shihuang issued an imperial edict to unify the use of Xiaozhuan as a unified language throughout the country. The distance between the two wheels of the carriage was changed to six feet, and the carriage and coins were all unified. This was the famous " writing with the same language, carriage with the same track ". Of course, the one who really implemented it was Li Si. He successfully formulated the standards for coins, length, and so on.
After Qin unified the six countries, Li Si put forward many suggestions on how to maintain the unity of the world, such as the abolition of enfeoffment, the establishment of prefectures and counties, the burning of books and the burying of Confucianism, the pursuit of personal learning, and the rule of law. All of them were adopted by the King of Qin.
Li Si participated in the formulation of the laws of the Qin Dynasty and perfected the system of the Qin Dynasty. He proposed and presided over the unification of words, carriage tracks, currency, and weights and measures. He had made great contributions to the unification of Qin.
The implementation of Li Si's political ideas had a profound impact on China and the world, laying the foundation for the political system of China for more than two thousand years.
Li Si's contribution to the establishment of the Qin Dynasty was undeniable!
1. Create the imperial system and develop the imperial industry.
After the unification of the Qin Dynasty, Li Si and the others first suggested that the king be called "Emperor of Thailand", the order be "System", the order be "Zhao", and the emperor call himself "Zhen"(Qin Shihuang changed "Emperor of Thailand" to "Emperor") to determine the imperial system.
Politically, he advocated splitting up the six countries so that Qin Shihuang could ascend to the throne, clear all obstacles, and become the first emperor.
2. Abolish the original enfeoffment system and implement the prefecture and county system throughout the country, dividing the country into 36 prefectures, completely changing the long-term situation of the feudal lords.
The establishment of a top-down central system promoted the political and economic development of the country at that time. This also became the political template of the subsequent dynasties.
In order to expand the territory of the Great Qin Empire, they had to resist the foreign barbarians.
3. In terms of economy, he advocated the implementation of currency unification, which promoted the development and stability of the Qin Dynasty's economy.
4. In terms of criminal law, unify the criminal law and establish a relevant legal system.
His political measures fundamentally changed the situation of the feudal vassals since the Zhou Dynasty and realized the unification of the state power. His economic measures had filled up the country's treasury and improved the living standards of the people. He had also changed the chaotic economic situation of the Six Nations and promoted the stability and prosperity of the entire country's economy.
5. Uniform Language
In terms of culture, the original Da Zhuan was changed to Xiao Zhuan, achieving the unification of the characters.
In 221 B.C., Qin Shihuang accepted Prime Minister Li Si's suggestion to ban the ancient characters left by the vassal states and used Qin Zhuan as the unified calligraphy style.
The appearance of Xiaozhuan had far-reaching significance. It used a new pattern of simplicity, formalization, omitting, and changing the radical to lay the foundation for the formation of the Chinese characters.
6. Unify weights and measures
When we usually talk and write articles, we will use the phrase "equally matched", which means that we are on par with each other.
According to the current conversion, shouldn't half a catty be five taels? Why eight taels?
In ancient times, 16 taels were used, so eight taels was equivalent to half a catty!
The unification of currency and weights and measures changed the chaotic economic structure of the Six Nations.
In order to effectively unify the standards and instruments, Li Si also took measures from the system and law to ensure the accurate implementation of weights and measures.
This was another achievement after the King of Qin unified the Celestial Dynasty and Li Si became the Prime Minister.
unified currency
It stipulated that the right to mint money belonged to the state, and private individuals were not allowed to mint money. Violators were convicted. Li Si's move was regarded as a pioneer in economic history by later generations.
7. The cars on the road are on the same track
In order to facilitate the flow of government orders and the exchange of supplies, Li Si immediately suggested unifying the country's tracks and building roads across the country. Just like that, a large-scale movement to unify the tracks and build roads began throughout the country.
In this way, a transportation network with Xianyang as the center connected all parts of the country. At the same time, to complement the road, Li Si also stipulated that the width of the tracks should be six feet to ensure that the vehicles could travel smoothly.
Construction of galloping roads, the construction of sightseeing places, in order to show that the emperor's ambition is satisfied.
Throughout the history of China, Li Si's position was undoubtedly important compared to the heroes of the past. The historical contribution he made in his lifetime was also extremely outstanding and followed the trend of history.
