"Damn, why can't I understand it again as soon as the author opens a new book!" After readers finished reading the first two chapters of "The Conflict between Chu and Han", they all sighed in the group and found that they could not understand it again. .
"The Ying surname Zhao that appeared at the very beginning made me confused." A reader said, "The system of surnames, first names, and names during the Three Kingdoms period already made me confused. The result is better now. Another clan popped up, what the hell is this, I can’t understand it.”
"It sounds like it's a way to distinguish different countries within the same surname. After all, there are Qin and Zhao!" someone speculated.
"Nonsense, if we divide them by country, then the people from Zhao State should have the surname Zhao, and the people from Qin State should have the surname Qin. Why are they all Zhao?"
"Also, Zhao Gao should theoretically be a descendant of the Zhao royal family. Then he, like Ying Zheng, both have the surname Zhao, which is very puzzling. And if they are both surnamed Zhao, why should Ying Zheng’s name is Ying Zheng, but Zhao Gao is called Zhao Gao? Shouldn’t he be called Ying Gao?”
"That's right, and have you noticed that in this new book, it seems that the word "biao" has not been seen. Could it be that the word "biao" only appeared in the Han Dynasty?"
Everyone had a discussion around the name, and then someone asked, "Brothers, what does the term "Heavenly Eunuch" mean?"
"Isn't it said in the book that a heavenly eunuch is a person who cannot have children and is infertile!"
"Oh, then if anyone has no children in the future, can we call him a eunuch?"
"Yes, that's the truth. My brother is already 29 and has no children of his own, so he is a eunuch."
"how about you?"
"I'm only 24 this year. Isn't it normal to not have children?"
"Then you are also a eunuch."
"Okay, eunuchs are eunuchs. It's good to be an eunuch. You are free and have no one to control you!"
"Brother, what you said is very clear. Brother, I have been married for 5 years and have two children. My life has been miserable. I feel like I have to live for those two children for the rest of my life. I finally made some money. , all of them must be pasted on the heads of these two children.”
"Now that I think about it, I might as well be a eunuch. Great Literary Sage, please, please let me be a eunuch!"
"Yes, great literary sage, let me be a eunuch too."
"Add me one!"
"I am a woman, and I don't want children. I also want to be a eunuch."
"That's right, I want to be a eunuch too. It's so cool to be an eunuch. Hurry up and castrate us!"
After almost all the book friends in the group were castrated, someone finally started to say good things about Liu Xu.
"Actually, compared with "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the beginning of this time is much easier to understand. I think the author explained the origin of the calendar to us at the beginning, which is much better than the beginning of the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" where it was completely dark about the annexation of Qin. Is that so?" a reader said in the group.
"By the way, do you think there is a possibility that we spent several days comparing the Three Kingdoms Dictionary, and then we found "Chu-Han Struggle" easy to understand??"
"..." There was silence in the group, and then someone interrupted.
"Please, the author clearly intends to unify the timeline when writing the calendar. After all, the timeline of the previous Romance of the Three Kingdoms was sometimes too confusing. Various era names kept changing, and it was impossible to tell which year it was. which year."
"As soon as the Zhongyuan Calendar came out, everything became very clear. I just don't know which year in the Zhongyuan Calendar it was when the Taoyuan Three became sworn brothers?"
"It must be after 300 AD. After all, the Qin Dynasty was followed by the Han Dynasty, and the garbage author said that the Han Dynasty lasted for more than 300 years, so it must be after 300 AD."
Then the group fell into a debate about how many years the Taoyuan trio had been sworn off for.
I believe everyone can see that the setting of Zhongyuan was completely created by Liu Xusheng. Although it is exactly the same as the common AD chronology in China before he traveled through time, it is completely different.
As a history graduate student, Liu Xu had always been dissatisfied with China's use of the AD calendar.
Because the AD calendar is an imported product from beginning to end and has no connection with the history of China at all.
For example, let all readers here recall what major events happened in Chinese history in the first year of AD. I am afraid that no one can answer this question.
Only by opening Baidu search and searching for "What major events happened in the first year of AD" did I know that the biggest thing that happened in China that year was that Wang Mang instructed Yizhou to offer black and white pheasants in the name of "Yue Shang clan" as a sign of auspiciousness. Mang "Anhan Gong".
Wang Mang's usurpation of the Han Dynasty had to wait until 5 years later in 5 AD. Therefore, no major events happened in China in the first year of AD. So why should this year be designated as the first year of AD?
Because this is the year when the great sage of Westerners, the omnipotent Lord, was born in a cowshed, the first year of AD is actually the birth year of a certain person.
Of course, there is no problem for Westerners to designate this year as the first year of AD, but why do the Chinese also follow the rules of Westerners and use the first year of AD?
First of all, at a certain period, China was extremely lacking in self-confidence and believed that everything in the West was the best culture, and their world was naturally the best place in the world.
So at that time, the AD era was set as the official calendar.
As for after the founding of the People's Republic of China, on the one hand, it is because the AD calendar has taken root in the country for decades and has been recognized by many people.
Secondly, the whole world is basically using the AD calendar at this time. If it is not used domestically, then when communicating with foreign countries in the future, new dates will have to be converted, which is a very troublesome matter.
In order to make it as convenient as possible, this setting has not been changed.
In fact, the AD calendar will definitely be of great help to China's national rejuvenation. If the concept of time cannot be unified with the world, it will be difficult for this country to develop.
Liu Xu understands these principles very well, but as a history graduate student, he still wants to set up a complete calendar based on China's own history.
Naturally, the most appropriate time for this first year is when Qin Shihuang unified the six countries. After all, this fierce man, the First Emperor, single-handedly divided the entire Chinese civilization into the era of nations and the era of great unification. Two different civilizational eras.
It is most appropriate to use such an obvious historical node as the first year.
As for why it is called the First Year of the Central Plains, of course it is because of China.
Of course, this was originally just a personal delusion of a nerd like Liu Xu. If he announced his Mesozoic Era on earth, he would probably be treated as a joke by countless people.
But now he is in another world, and the entire history of China, and even the history of the world, is in his hands alone. With his change, the setting and timeline of the entire earth world have quietly changed.
Due to various reasons, the address was changed to
