The official script was reformed.
With the addition of Wang Cizhong, progress has been extremely rapid.
Moreover, with the assistance of Zhao Gao, Hu Wujing, Li Si and others, naturally the word was determined very quickly.
Li Si discussed with Zhao Gao and others to use Qin seal script to count the numbers, using both complex and simple ones.
Because this requires the formulation of various deeds, they must be sure to be foolproof and cannot be changed.
A month passed.
February of the first year of the First Emperor.
The text reform was finally completed. At the same time, Li Si wrote the "Cangjie Pian", Zhao Gaoshu "Yanli Pian", and Hu Wujing wrote the "Erudition Pian".
When Ying Shu got the news, he was filled with emotions.
The Chinese characters, square characters, took shape in this way.
"Your Majesty, these are all the words in the official script!"
Cheng Miao and Hu Wujing came to visit, bringing with them the original copy of the official script: "There are 30,000 Da Qin characters, all of which are on it."
Chen Ping poured tea for everyone, Ying Shu smiled and said: "Sit down!"
"promise!"
After everyone sat down, Hu Wujing looked towards Yingshu and said, "Your Majesty, the matter of reforming the characters and writing them with the same text is finally over!"
"The next step will be to confirm Yayan!"
"To determine Yayan, which is the official dialect of the empire, we must first determine the pronunciation!"
Ying Shu took a sip of hot tea and said to Hu Wujing: "It is best to take it, which can best represent the culture of the Central Plains, and can be accepted by all the counties in the empire, and can be learned and read accurately."
"In this way, it will be more conducive to promoting Yayan."
"promise."
Everyone nodded, and Cheng Miao pondered for a moment: "It is not difficult to formulate Yayan. This matter has been around since ancient times."
"Next, the most difficult thing should be on Junshang's side."
After taking a sip of tea, Ying Shu pondered for a long time and said to the crowd: "Actually, you and I want to establish Yayan, and I want to formulate the Great Qin Dictionary. We can do it together."
"After all, some of it overlaps."
"Um!"
Everyone also nodded, they all knew in their hearts that their offices would be busy next.
It will even be merged into the Preface Department.
Of course; this is just Cheng Miao and the Six Great Doctors.
After all, whether it is Zhao Gao, Li Si, or Hu Wujing, they all have their own official positions, and they all belong to the Three Gongs and Nine Ministers.
A night banquet is over.
The next day.
Ying Shu got up early in the morning, tidied up, and then headed towards the Office of Character Collection.
Today's Character Surveying Office is already a large-scale official office, gathering right minister Li Si, Feng Chang Hu Wujing, censor Cheng Miao, Chen Ping, Wang Cizhong, Ying Shu and others.
This is basically the backbone of the empire.
In the official office, hot tea has been prepared.
Due to the unification of the empire and the secret operations of the Hidden Palace, drinking tea has become a new trend in the empire.
"Your Majesty, the Hidden Palace will be very profitable from this tea, right?"
Hearing this, Yingshu chuckled: "A drop in the bucket, a small profit!"
"After all, we have to feed the entire Hidden Palace, otherwise, all this will require funding from the treasury!"
"When the time comes, I will inevitably bother the teacher!"
Taking a sip of hot tea, Ying Shu smiled and changed the subject: "Teacher, tell me, when it comes to determining elegance, which speech should be used as the standard?"
"After all, it must be universal and conducive to dissemination!"
"Yayan will become the only common language of the empire. Its existence is to break the language barrier and facilitate the unification of the empire and the unity of the people of all ethnic groups!"
"Therefore, Yajian must be accepted by the whole country. This is the key!"
"Um!"
Nodding slightly, Li Si did not answer, but changed the topic and said: "Your Majesty wants to formulate a Daqin dictionary. I think it is based on 30,000 official scripts?"
"Um!"
After taking a sip of hot tea, Ying Shu looked at everyone and said word by word: "The Great Qin Dictionary is to make it easier for people around the world to look up words!"
"The dictionary must have the pronunciation and definition of this word!"
"And the radical!"
"Pronunciation and radicals?" Li Si frowned slightly, glanced at Yingshu keenly, and said, "Can you please clarify my doubts?"
"In my spare time, I made some changes and created the Daqin alphabet!"
"Twenty-six in total, case sensitive!"
At this time, Yingshu went to deal with a piece of Qin paper, handed it to everyone, and said: "This is the Great Qin alphabet!"
"It has its pronunciation!"
"The second page is a list of initial consonants, and the third page is a list of vowels!"
"Then promote Daqin Pinyin to confirm everyone's correct pronunciation, so that people all over the world can learn better!"
"Once Daqin Pinyin is promoted, it will be beneficial to the promotion of Yayan, and will also help students recognize and read it, ensuring its correct pronunciation!"
"Although the previous method of cutting words is also possible, it is difficult to spread and is not conducive to the empire!"
"Moreover, in this way, the Great Qin Dictionary can be compiled in a short time!"
"What do you think?"
Hearing this, everyone was a little curious and couldn't help but look at the pages of Qin paper in Li Si's hand.
Li Si looked at it for a long time and then handed it to Hu Wujing: "Fengchang, take a look too, I think it makes sense!"
"Once it can be done, it will indeed be an advantage for communication!"
"promise!"
At this moment, Li Si looked at Yingshu and said: "Your Majesty, this needs to be studied. Once the method of cutting characters can be replaced, Pinyin can be promoted, which will be beneficial to the rule of the empire!"
"It is also conducive to the spread of Yayan!"
"Um!"
Nodding, Ying Shu took a sip of hot tea and said to Li Si, "Teacher, you can actually simplify arithmetic, or the numbers in mathematics!"
"This makes calculations easier!"
The winning technique is clear, and there is actually a multiplication table in Da Qin.
However, these tables all appear in the form of one
"How to simplify it?"
Li Si heard this and looked at Ying Shu.
As the prime minister of the empire, he naturally knew the trouble and tediousness of calculations, but he didn't know how to do it.
After all, he is not a mathematician.
Yingshu took out a piece of paper, then picked up a pen and wrote down ten numbers: "Teacher, look!"
"This is, 0, this is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9!"
"And ten is the combination of 10!"
"All numbers can be combined using this set of numbers. When the time comes, it will be much easier to calculate in terms of arithmetic!"
Hearing this, Li Si pondered for a long time and said: "I asked Feng Quji to go south to Nanzhou to replace Zhang Cang and let Zhang Cang go north!"
"Zhang Cang is better at these things!"
Li Si was also a little moved at this moment, but he knew that the calculation of money and food in the government was too huge.
If Yingshu's move really has such an effect, it will be great!
