Chapter 2: My Great Qin inheritance is less than a thousand years?
Just as the ancients were discussing this.
Under the sky, the video is playing slowly.
[In 2070 BC, the flood control hero Dayu accepted the abdication of Yu Shun and became the leader of the tribal alliance, establishing the first dynasty in Chinese history, the Xia Dynasty, known in history as Xia Yu.]
[After Yu died, his son Qi seized the throne and passed it on to his descendants.]
【From then on, the emperor took the state power for himself and passed it down from generation to generation, and the system of abdication became a family empire.】
[In 2018 BC, Taikang succeeded as the third monarch of the Xia Dynasty, but he only cared about drinking and hunting, and ignored civil affairs. He was later deposed by Houyi, the leader of the Dongyi tribe. This is known in history as Taikang's loss of the country. ]
[In 1651 BC, Xia Jie, the last monarch of the Xia Dynasty, ascended the throne.]
[He was extremely licentious and tyrannical, and was a famous tyrant in history.]
[In 1600 BC, King Tang of Shang defeated King Jie, overthrew the tyrannical rule, and established the Shang Dynasty. The Xia Dynasty, which had existed for 470 years, was replaced by the Shang Dynasty.]
【In 1076 BC, King Zhou of Shang ascended the throne. 】
[He conquered the Dongyi tribe, expanded the power of the Shang Dynasty to the Jianghuai area, and consolidated the rule of the Central Plains dynasty.]
[But he was also an extremely cruel monarch. He doted on the enchantress Daji, indulged in wine and sex, neglected state affairs, and persecuted loyal officials, causing complaints from the princes and the people.]
[In 1046 BC, King Wu of Zhou, Ji Fa, defeated the army of the Shang Dynasty in the Battle of Muye. King Zhou of Shang was defeated and burned himself to death. The Shang Dynasty was destroyed and the Zhou Dynasty was established, which is known in history as the Western Zhou Dynasty.]
[The Shang Dynasty, which had existed for 554 years, was replaced by the Western Zhou Dynasty.]
【In 782 BC, King You of Zhou ascended the throne. 】
[He was greedy and corrupt, did not care about government affairs, favored treacherous ministers, favored Bao Si, and lit beacons to trick the princes many times, which led to his loss of trust in the world, the destruction of his country, and his death.]
【The Western Zhou Dynasty, which had existed for 275 years, fell.】
[In 770 BC, Duke Xiang of Qin sent troops to escort King Ping of Zhou to migrate eastward, which was known in history as the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.]
[Because of Qin's meritorious service in escorting the enemy, he was granted the title of a vassal state, and the Qin State was established. 】
……
Daqin plane.
Even though he already knew this history, Ying Zheng was still fascinated by it.
"These historical events on the sky curtain are very similar to those recorded in history books. It seems that they are not fabricated. They are indeed the guidance of the immortals in later generations to me!"
After comparing it with the history books, Ying Zheng was overwhelmed with emotion.
Believe firmly in the contents of the canopy.
"Well, let me take a good look at whether my Great Qin can be passed down for a thousand years!"
"My descendants, are you doing anything better than me?"
“Is everyone like a dragon?”
Even though he hoped that his dynasty would last forever, Ying Zheng knew in his heart that the decline of the dynasty was only a matter of time.
Especially when I saw the word "Republic of China", I was prepared for the demise of the Qin Dynasty.
However, at this moment Ying Zheng still held a glimmer of hope.
What if this Republic of China was changed to the name of the country by his descendants of the Qin Dynasty?
Of course, he knew in his heart that the probability of such a thing happening was very small.
Ying Zheng continued to look at the sky.
As the history related to the Qin Dynasty emerged, a sense of nervousness arose in the hearts of a group of princes and ministers including Zhao Gao and Li Si.
What will the future hold?
How will people in later generations evaluate themselves?
Can I leave my name in history?
Leave a deep mark in history books?
These and other things are what everyone is eager to know.
……
[After this, the majesty of the Zhou royal family gradually declined, and the princes vied for hegemony, and the Spring and Autumn Period began. ]
[During the Spring and Autumn Period, the emperor declined and the princes rose. ]
[During this period, Duke Huan of Qi, Duke Xiang of Song, Duke Wen of Jin, Duke Mu of Qin, and King Zhuang of Chu successively became hegemons, known in history as the Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period.]
[In 403 BC, Zhao, Han and Wei divided Jin, and the Warring States Period began. ] [From more than 140 princes in the early Spring and Autumn Period, after years of mergers, only more than 20 remained. ]
[Among these countries, there were seven most powerful vassal states, namely Qi, Chu, Qin, Yan, Zhao, Wei, and Han, known in history as the Seven Kingdoms of the Warring States Period.]
[During the Warring States Period, the princes ruled their own territories and fought each other, and the Zhou Dynasty completely became a mascot. 】
[After that, the Zhou Dynasty was divided into the Western Zhou Principality, the Eastern Zhou Principality and the Zhou Royal Family. ]
[In 256 BC, the Qin State conquered the Western Zhou Principality. In the same year, the last king of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, King Nan of Zhou, died, and the Zhou Wang family came to an end.]
[In 249 BC, Lü Buwei conquered the Eastern Zhou Principality, and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, which had existed for 515 years, came to an end.]
【The entire Zhou Dynasty was the longest-lasting dynasty, lasting a total of 790 years. 】
【…】
See here.
Ying Zheng's seemingly calm face changed again.
"The Zhou Dynasty was the longest-lasting dynasty?"
"My Great Qin is not the longest-lasting dynasty?"
"I abolished feudal fiefdoms, established counties, and built the Great Wall to defend against foreign enemies."
"I will collect all the soldiers in the world and make them into twelve golden men to weaken the people of the world, so that my great Qin will last forever."
"I have done so much, but it is not enough to make the Qin Dynasty last for a thousand years?"
"Why?"
Although the demise of the Qin Dynasty was anticipated, Ying Zheng never expected that the Qin Dynasty would not even last a thousand years.
How could our descendants be so unworthy?
Zhao Gao was the first to react when he noticed that Ying Zheng’s face looked strange.
He flattered: "Your Majesty, this may not be the fault of man, but the wrath of heaven."
"Perhaps natural disasters will occur frequently in the future, making it difficult for future generations to resist foreign enemies, so..."
Zhao Gao was afraid of angering the First Emperor, so he did not dare to say the word "national destruction".
"Yes, Your Majesty, natural disasters and natural disasters are beyond human control."
"This is not the fault of man, but the sin of God."
The ministers behind him also made suggestions.
"In that case, Prime Minister, I order you to carefully comprehend the meaning of the sky curtain."
"In response to the natural disasters that may occur in the sky, lead all officials to discuss countermeasures to ensure that our Great Qin will last for ten thousand years and our country will have no boundaries!"
Although he was somewhat unhappy that the Qin Dynasty had not been able to pass on for a thousand years, Ying Zheng was not so angry as to be angry over such a small matter.
It's man-made.
Now with the early warning from the sky and learning from history, the Qin Dynasty can definitely seize the initiative and truly achieve eternal immortality through ten thousand years of inheritance!
"Let me see what the Great Qin will be like after me!"
……
[In 230 BC, Qin conquered Korea.]
[In 228 BC, Qin general Wang Jian captured Handan and captured King Qian of Zhao, and the State of Zhao was destroyed.]

[In the same year, Changping Jun was supported as the King of Chu in Huainan, and continued to resist the Qin State in the Huainan area. Later, he was suppressed by the Qin army led by Wang Jian and Meng Wu. Changping Jun was defeated and died, and the Chu State was completely destroyed. ]
[In 222 BC, Wang Jian led his army to capture the Yan capital Jicheng, captured King Xi of Yan, and the Yan State was destroyed. ]
