Chapter 905 The Unfinished Business of the First Emperor(2/2)

Zhang Cang was stunned: "So, Afang Palace is already vacant..."

Heifu said: "Yes, you and I both know who the First Emperor built the Epang Palace for. Unfortunately, it can't wait for the Queen Mother of the West..."

"From now on, no emperor or King of Qin will visit there anymore. It has been taken over by the regent government as public property and used for other purposes."

"For what purpose?"

Heifu said: "The ancients said that the grand palace is to show the dignity of the king, but I think the person who is most qualified to live in that illustrious palace is not the emperor, not the illusory Queen Mother of the West, and of course, not me, the regent."

"But 'knowledge'!"

Hei Fu held Zhang Cang in his arms and walked out, saying:

"Didn't you tell me that those people from Bactria who came from far away told you that in the far west, there was a Greek state named Ptolemy. Its king built the largest palace in the world in the capital.

A library?"

Zhang Cang nodded: "People from Daxia who have been to the capital of Toguo said that the king of Toguo ordered that every ship entering the port be searched. As long as books are found, regardless of nationality, they will be immediately placed in the library, so as to collect all the books from all Greek states.

The book collection pavilion is also huge, like a city, with hundreds of thousands of volumes..."

Although the Censor's Palace Collection Room in the Qin Dynasty also collected books from the Three Dynasties and Six Kingdoms, it has not yet reached that scale, so Zhang Cang is quite envious.

"You don't have to be envious."

Heifu was a little proud: "From now on, the entire Epang Palace will be the Chinese academic city. The collection room is ten times or a hundred times larger than the Greek library!"

Zhang Cang was really shocked now. No matter how wildly he fancied it, he could never imagine that with a wave of his hand, Qin Shi Huang, who had spent countless people and property and took several years to build the Afang Palace, could just wave his hand and ask him to load the books!

Those books that were the work of countless sages, but were worthless in the eyes of the imperial court, and were casually burned and deleted...

He murmured: "But now the book of the world is only enough to fill a few palaces and occupy a corner of it."

"Be brave." Heifu encouraged Zhang Cang: "What I want is not just a book for today's people."

"I want Epang Palace to contain the books of hundreds of generations! From the oracle bones of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, to the bronze inscriptions of Zong Zhou, to the Spring and Autumn Slips, and in recent years, there has been an endless stream of printed scrolls. The law of holding books will be abolished.

Classics, histories, poems, books, laws, as long as they are approved by the official government, they can be passed down to the world!"

"I also want it to hold the world's most valuable book! It can be said to be a treasure of all the small and small Jiuzhous, and a treasure of the middle and middle Kyushus!"

"Persian Tablet Inscriptions."

"Greek parchments, statues."

"Ptolemaic papyri, and the ancient relics of that land."

"Even the myth of poisonous people."

Zhang Cang's mouth opened wide. He saw in Hei Fu's eyes a majestic ambition that had only appeared in the eyes of Qin Shihuang!

"All the crystallization of human wisdom will be gathered in Afang for scholars to study, translate and understand, and for future generations to admire!"

At this point, Heifu's words were hoarse and restrained: "After reunification, it will take decades to rest with the people. I will definitely not be able to do this, but I believe that future generations of successors can do it."

arrive!"

The first ray of sunshine in the morning shines on Xianyang Palace and on this dark-faced designer. He is the only one in the world who has the same ambition as the First Emperor and even understands the First Emperor.

But Heifu understands better what his mission is:

"People cannot live forever, and national power will eventually be exhausted. One generation can only do one thing."

"But I believe that one day, Afang Palace will no longer be synonymous with corvee and tyranny, but a palace of knowledge."

"It will become the axis of all civilizations in this era and in the world!"



No one knows what happened in the main hall of Xianyang Palace on the night of the tenth day of July.

Even the guards of Heifu who were standing guard only knew Wu Zhonghou and Zhang Cang, the latest "young man" who took office. The two old men stayed together in the palace for a long time. They stayed up all night and didn't wake up until dawn. They were both so tired that they were shaking.

Yawning, Zhang Cang's eyes were still red, as if he had just cried...

"I won't be able to see that day, but you are different, Zihu. If you eat less sugar, you might still be able to see that day..."

After all, Renrui lived for more than a hundred years. As a witness to history, it is really appropriate.

"correct."

When they were leaving, Hei Fu remembered something: "Zihu, you came in a hurry from the north and said you had something important to tell me. What is it?"

"But I forgot about it!" Zhang Cang finally recovered from the future vision described by Hei Fu, slapped his thigh, and said seriously: "It's about the Huns!"

"The Huns who invaded the Great Wall this time were not only large in number, but also included Yueshi and Donghu cavalry. They were also different from the past..."

Zhang Cang's eyes were full of warning: "I have secretly learned your methods, equipped myself with saddles and stirrups, and are better at riding and shooting. The people of New Qin will be difficult to defeat!"

"Modun learns very quickly..."

Hei Fu was startled, but when he thought about it carefully, seven or eight years had passed since the Huns were driven north. The Huns suffered a heavy loss in the Helan Mountains and were beaten to the point of defeat by Li Xin. Mao Dun also escaped from Hei Fu's pursuit.

After packing up the remnants and running to Mobei to lick his wounds, it was expected that he would learn from his master.

Is this one of the reasons why the Huns were able to defeat Donghu?

Heifu asked Zhang Cang to go down and rest, and would explain the matter in detail at the military meeting later.

Zhang Cang walked down the stairs of Xianyang Palace, and could only hear Hei Fu turning his head and muttering...

"It's fun to cheat for a while, it's fun for a while..."
