[Comprehensive] Survival of the Last Emperor

As the sun gradually set, the sky darkened little by little, and it was only Youshi (17:19). The Xianyang Palace was already brightly lit, and the dim candlelight looked as bright as the stars in the sky from a distance.

Because Hu Hai thinks that the oil lamp is not bright enough, the candle will smudge his eyes, and the smell is not good, etc., his palace is not lit at night, but illuminated with the luminous pearl specially given to him by Ying Zheng.Such night pearls are extremely precious even in Xianyang Palace, which collects all kinds of treasures from all over the world. Apart from Ying Zheng himself, only Fu Su and Hu Hai can be bestowed with pearls by Ying Zheng.

Fusu resolutely refused because Ye Mingzhu was too extravagant, and Hu Hai took it for granted—I really can’t expect a person who has to turn on fluorescent lights during the day to feel that using a few broken beads at night is a luxury.As a modern person living in a backward era, Hu Hai feels that he is not picky about what he eats or what he wears. Didn’t he ask to install a firewall and earth dragon for the winter?

Well, although they are two things, the firewall and the earth dragon, for a southerner, they are too high-end and foreign-style. Let alone seeing the real thing, he didn’t even care about the principle. He really couldn’t make it, so he had to Confess to the Mo family to study slowly, and try to use it before next winter.

Sitting on the mat, Hu Hai wrapped himself in a tiger skin cloak, glanced at Zhao Gao who was beside him, and then raised his head to look at Zhao Gao, who was reading "Shang Jun Shu" with gusto under the light of the night pearl. Ying Zheng.

Father, I've been watching this for half an hour, why haven't I finished it yet?According to the usual practice, this time should be the time for parent-child activities such as touching me, hugging me, kissing me, asking me how I am, and caring about my homework.

Hu Hai was very unhappy and stuffed a piece of dim sum into his mouth. Since he "invented" the dough raising technique, the cooks in the palace have used this technology as a template to make various new dim sum.All of a sudden, all kinds of delicious and good-looking snacks sprung up from Huhai Palace like mushrooms after rain.

The chrysanthemum cake tastes sweet and has a chrysanthemum fragrance. I will eat another piece myself, and this piece will be given to my father.

Hu Hai stuffed a piece of chrysanthemum cake into his mouth with his left hand, picked up a piece of chrysanthemum cake with his right hand and brought it to Ying Zheng's mouth, and said in a pink and tender voice, "Father, eat cake."

"Huh?" Ying Zheng recovered from his contemplation, lowered his head to look at Hu Hai, who was so cute that his heart would melt away, without much thought, he bit the chrysanthemum cake that Hu Hai handed over, and then put Hu Hai Holding it in his arms, he shook the "Book of Shang Jun" in his hand and said: "This method of reading sentences is quite interesting, and Wang Er thought of it?"

"Because children are stupid, stupid people have to use stupid methods." Hu Hai touched his head with his hand, and said shyly: "Although children know the characters in "Book of Shang Jun", but... children don't understand. What do you mean, so I just marked it casually, which is simpler and easier to read, otherwise it would be very hard to read." Hu Hai lowered his head and said shyly to his fingers.

"Not bad! Really good!" Looking at his cute and cute young son, Ying Zheng couldn't hold back for a moment, kissed the boy's round cheeks twice, then waved his hand excitedly at Zhao Gao and said: " Zhao Gao, come and take a look." Ying Zheng tapped on the "Shang Jun Shu" with his finger, "Look, this one can be used as a 'reading', and the other one can be used as a 'sentence'. This is how to distinguish , the whole article is clear at a glance, isn't it much easier to read than before."

"It's so easy, but... the eighteenth son's paragraph is wrong, and the servant has been struggling to read this sentence for a long time before I can read this sentence fluently." Zhao Gao complained aggrievedly, making Hu Hai hugged. Ying Zheng laughed out loud.

The so-called "sentence" and "reading" refer to the place where words pause in ancient Chinese, but if they are used 400 years later, they are "punctuation marks".

Because there is too much reliance on punctuation marks, when people of later generations study ancient Chinese, they often feel particularly distressed because there are no punctuation marks in ancient Chinese and all the words are connected together.But in fact, although there are no punctuation marks like modern ones in ancient texts, these people will be required to "read clearly" from the beginning of learning "San Zi Jing", because if they don't know how to read sentences, they will often cause misreading and misinterpretation of the original meaning.

But because the "sentence" and "reading" of the ancients are quite willful, sometimes broken and sometimes continuous, there is no uniform standard, and they are quite dependent on face or mood, so they will be misunderstood by later generations.

It was only after being informed by Zhao Gao that Hu Hai realized that China already had such things as "sentence" and "reading".

"Why is my father's little Hu Hai so smart?" Ying Zheng became more and more happy as he watched, and couldn't hold back and hugged Hu Hai and kissed him twice. When he was about to kiss the third kiss, he kissed on the chrysanthemum cake that Hu Hai handed over.

"Father, the beard is piercing!" Hu Hai held up a piece of chrysanthemum with both hands, making a pitiful expression.

Seeing his precious son's face flushed red from being kissed by him, Ying Zheng finally didn't have the nerve to do it again... mouth, so he had to accept Hu Hai's bribe, and said, "Okay! The beard is piercing! Don't kiss, don't kiss! "

"Your Majesty, this servant girl suggested that this sentence should be read in a book, and passed on to the world, so that everyone in the world can read it together." Seeing that Ying Zheng was in a good mood, Zhao Gao immediately leaned forward and said.

The reason why Zhao Gao got to where he is today is not only his outstanding talent and loyalty, but also his ability to grab credit and compete for performance.Although he has reached his position, ordinary small skills can no longer attract him.But if he can take the matter of compiling the book to himself, such a book will be of great benefit to poems, books and articles, and I believe it will spread to all countries soon. Gain fame from scholars all over the world.

Having become an official to this point, Zhao Gao no longer cares about profit, but cares more about prestige, fame, and whether he can be remembered in history.

Facing Zhao Gao's blatant act of grabbing credit, Hu Hai's entire face instantly turned black, which is why he didn't like the punctuation marks to be discovered, because he was too young, so except for Ying Zheng's two sentences, he himself Apart from compliments, he can't get the biggest piece of the pie, and can only watch others become famous... Li Wan... famous... Qingshi because of their actions.

The most important point is that it's okay to let other people become famous and make history, why... why... is it a bad scum like Zhao Gao?Judging from a certain prime minister who invented Song-style characters, but because of his poor character, his calligraphy achievements were ignored, the punctuation marks would probably have the same fate as Song-style characters.

"Zhao Gao, just now you said that I made a mistake? Are you sure I made a mistake, or are you pretending to understand?" Hu Hai said suddenly.

Although this matter would probably fall on Zhao Gao, Hu Hai just didn't want to see him so complacent, so he had to find a way to kill his spirit without making Ying Zheng feel that he was making trouble for no reason.

"The method of punctuation marks is profound and profound. Do you think you can learn it just by looking at it?" Hu Hai didn't wait for Zhao Gao to speak, picked up a pen and quickly wrote a line of words without punctuation points on the paper——Leave a guest on a rainy day. I didn't keep it, and then put the pen into Zhao Gao's hand and said, "Come, take a look."

"This..." Zhao Gao glanced at Ying Zheng, seeing that the other party had no intention of objecting, he took a brush and added some punctuation around the words according to his own understanding.

"It's raining, it's raining, it's raining, I'm not." Hu Hai recited Zhao Gao's sentences, and said with a blank expression, "That's the only one? Are there any others?"

besides?Zhao Gao glanced at Hu Hai, pondered for a while, and then bit the bullet and broke three more.

If it rains, you can stay with guests, but if you stay with me, you won’t stay.

On rainy days, stay with guests, stay on rainy days, but I won't stay.

On a rainy day, stay with guests, the sky stays with me, but not.

"What else?" Hu Hai didn't comment on Zhao Gao's decision, but continued with a blank expression.

"Still... more?" Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai with a face full of embarrassment and shock.

Not only Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai, but Ying Zheng also looked at Hu Hai - he couldn't think of how to break this sentence.

"Hehe..." Hu Hai took the pen in Zhao Gao's hand, drew a few strokes on the paper, and quickly came up with five new readings, and explained the meanings of them to the two of them one by one.

Stay away from guests on rainy days, stay away from me on rainy days. This is a classic sentence that the Chinese teacher used as an example when Huhai Elementary School was learning punctuation marks. He was so impressed that he did not forget it even after time travel.Zhao Gao only used periods and commas in his sentences, so naturally he couldn't make any more readings, but what if there were more punctuation marks?

While Hu Hai was explaining the usage of each punctuation mark to the two, he secretly looked at Ying Zheng and Zhao Hai, shocked by his punctuation, he seemed to have found the satisfaction he felt when molesting these little radishheads from his Chinese teacher. .

After reading Hu Hai's explanation, Ying Zheng took a few cases and said excitedly: "Wang'er is really the son of a widow, and he is really smart."

Ying Zheng originally thought that it was as true as Hu Hai said, and Hu Hai just found it troublesome and came up with a way to be lazy. He didn't expect that Hu Hai had compiled a complete system, and there was a lot of knowledge in it, which was definitely not what Hu Hai said. , is just a lazy method.

"I will teach Wang Er to be responsible for compiling the book. Wang Er only needs to formulate the content of the manuscript, and Zhao Gao will do everything else." From what I thought was a simple toy at first, now I really understand punctuation marks, plus the Chinese language Afterwards, the politician Ying Zheng didn't care about Hu Hai's age anymore.

So what if the widow's son is a little more intelligent?

Ying Zheng originally thought that Hu Hai, who was very unhappy when Zhao Gao asked to compile a book, would happily accept the matter, but unexpectedly, Hu Hai shook his head without thinking, " Father, this matter should be edited by Zhao Gao, and the child can follow suit."

"Aren't you just afraid of being criticized? You are a real talent, what are you afraid of being criticized?" Ying Zheng is so smart, he immediately guessed the reason for Hu Hai's disapproval, and while feeling sorry for his son's well-behaved and sensible, he said boldly : "The widow said that Wang'er can do it, Wang'er can do it, why should I care about other people's criticisms?"

"My son is not afraid of anyone's criticism, but my son will not let my father be criticized by others because of my son." Hu Hai straightened up and said loudly.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!The son is so cute, so cute, so well-behaved... All the steelmaking has turned into fingers!It's really not in vain to hurt you!Smash it!

Facing such a young son who thinks about himself, Ying Zheng, who has been sprayed and sprayed all day long because of certain people and certain things, and is almost being sprayed into shaking "M", I just feel sour in the nose, and there seems to be something in the eyes Something is about to flow out.

Really annoying!The wind is blowing into the eyes!Rou Ji, go and close the window.

"What nonsense are you talking about? It seems that if you don't make trouble, the father will not be punished... No, what the father wants to say is not this." Ying Zheng almost said the truth inadvertently, and Ying Zheng looked at Hu Hai angrily. Said: "Do you think that the father was often criticized because of you? Although there was no criticism back then, there was a lot of talk behind it."

"They are jealous of your father, you like me." Hu Hai can figure out with his toes, what is the reason why Yingzheng was sprayed, it is nothing more than abolishing the elders and establishing the younger. They are really a group of short-sighted guys. You belong to one country, and we are all on the side of Fusu. What we have to do is not infighting, what we have to do is to unite and deal with Qin II, who doesn't know where he is squatting and is ready to reap the benefits." Father, don't worry about them. As the old saying goes, being ruthless is not necessarily a hero, how can you not be a husband if you pity your son? Why should you be criticized for loving your son? So please continue to... love me vigorously."

"Ruthless is not necessarily a real hero. How can Lianzi not be a husband? Just like the people who regard food as the first priority and food as the first priority, you came up with it? There are always many fresh sentences in your mouth. If you continue like this, My great Qin royal family may produce a great writer." Ying Zheng stretched out his finger and teased Hu Hai's cheek and said.

"Hehe..." That's impossible. Fuwen is popular these days, and I have limited inventory in my stomach. What I can remember are only a few famous essays in high school Chinese.Although I remember a lot of quatrain poems, but unfortunately that thing will not be invented until the era of Cao Cao and his son. You...don't think that you can pretend to be a poet by memorizing a few poems. If people let you play wine orders and write articles, will you be swollen?You can't just recite poems, can you?

"Father, let's talk about the main point." Hu Hai wiped his sweat quietly, Father, I'm sorry, your son's goal is to be a second-generation Quan who eats yogurt and doesn't lick his lids. The lofty ambition of a writer.

"You have refused so clearly, what can father do?" Han Ye fluttered all over my face, and my son's rebellion hurt my heart.

At the court meeting the next day, the King of Qin made a decree to the effect that "the future memorials will not be read if they are not marked with punctuation marks."

Right, that's how willful it is.

The author has something to say: Can someone figure out the remaining five ways of "retaining guests on rainy days and not staying on other days"?I learned it in elementary school, and I was very impressed at the time. .

I think that when modern people travel to ancient times, sometimes it’s not a matter of intentional luxury, but your living habits are like this. You can’t use bamboo to scrape after going to the toilet, but the productivity of ancient times can’t keep up, so you have to wipe it with a cloth. Ass, and then I was sprayed decisively...

It's like, when a rich person chats with us, he always looks like a yacht or a luxury car, and he doesn't necessarily show off his wealth on purpose, it's just his living habits...
