Qin Shihuang is our country’s most famous emperor through the ages. He ascended the throne when he was 13 years old. At the age of 22, he began to take charge of the government and got rid of Lu Buwei, Lao Ai and others. He successively destroyed the six kingdoms of Han, Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan, and Qi, and completed the great cause of unifying China at the age of 39. For such a great emperor, every word he said was full of profound meaning. Today we will take a look at the most famous words Qin Shihuang said.
1. I am the First Emperor. Later generations can be counted, and the second and third generations will be passed on to all generations, and they will be passed down endlessly!
This sentence expresses the ideal of Qin Shihuang. After he unified the six kingdoms, it was the first time that a king could own such a large territory. He felt that his great achievements could be recorded in history forever and called himself the First Emperor, also known as Qin Shihuang. He hoped that his descendants would continue to use the name, Qin II, Qin III... and he hoped that his descendants could always overlook the world like him.
If the two heroes cannot escape, how can Yingzheng stand in the world!
This sentence shows that Qin Shihuang actually treated the heroes well. When he was alive, most of the heroes All ended well. Except for forcing Lu Buwei to death and turning a blind eye and allowing Li Si and Yao Jia to kill Han Fei, Ying Zheng did not kill Wang Jian, Wang Bi, Wang Li, Zhang Han, Meng Wu, Meng Tian, ??Li Xin, Li Si, and Yao Any of the heroes such as Jia, Wei Liao, Zheng Guo, Meng Yi, Feng Jie, and Wang Wan, these first generation elders of the Qin Empire, all died of old age or illness. Most of them were killed by the Zhao Gao Group during the reign of Qin II. Killed.
Three I heard that in ancient times there was a title without a posthumous title, in the middle ages there was a title, and one died in silence. In this case, the son will discuss the father, and the minister will discuss the king, which is very meaningless, and I can't take it. Since now, the posthumous method has been eliminated. From two to three generations to all generations, it will be passed on endlessly.
The meaning of this sentence is: I heard that emperors in ancient times had titles but no posthumous titles. In the Middle Ages, emperors had titles during their lifetime and posthumous titles after death. And this posthumous title was not given for no reason but based on what he did during his lifetime. In this way, is it not the son who evaluates the father and the minister who evaluates the emperor? This method is not advisable and I don’t like it either. I want to abolish the posthumous title so that it can be passed down for generations to come. In fact, there is some truth in what is said.
Four, women, children, old and young, pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep, within a radius of a hundred miles, were killed and burned, turning them into scorched earth, and not even a blade of grass could grow for thousands of years.
This sentence comes from the completely angered Qin Shihuang who said this famous saying in history after Zhang Liang's failed assassination, and he really did what he said. Later, everyone within a hundred miles of Bolangsha was imprisoned. Qin Shihuang killed Ying Zheng, who was very afraid of death. Naturally, he would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go. Moreover, Ying Zheng might also have thought that Zhang Liang might be among these people.
Five I will unify the six kingdoms and unite the world. I will build the Great Wall to control the dragon veins of the nine states, guard our Qin Dynasty, and protect our country. I swear this in the name of the First Emperor! I am here to defend the territory and open up borders, wipe out the four barbarians, and establish the foundation of our great Qin for eternity! Even if I die, I will transform into a dragon soul to protect China forever! This oath is borne out by the sun and the moon, and the gods and demons of heaven and earth will listen to it! It doesn’t matter whether Qin Shihuang said this sentence or not. What’s important is that this sentence is really domineering and shows a true emperor through the ages!
