nationality!

At this point, Ying Zheng thought about it again and again.

In Li Kang's memory, most of the great powers in later generations coexist with multiple ethnic groups, and few countries with a single ethnic group were found. This is like the controversy between various schools of thought and Confucianism.

Compared with the national survival method that contends among the hundreds of schools of thought, Ying Zheng prefers a single one. He would rather have only one nation in the Qin Empire.

Ying Zheng's character is already extremely strong, and he prefers to be unique rather than to contend with a hundred schools of thought.

Since he thought about the concept of nation, he planned to integrate the Chu people, Qin people, Zhao people and others on the Central Plains to form a new nation.

The surviving tribes of the six countries would not be at a loss because of the demise of the six countries. At the beginning, Ying Zheng planned to introduce the concept of the Qin tribe.

First of all, he was inspired by the name of the Han people in later generations, so he also wanted to create a different glory. Moreover, he established the Qin Empire, leaving behind a Qin tribe with more profound significance.

However, Ying Zheng thought for a long time and found that the Qin clan was too symbolic. Once it was introduced, the old Qin people would naturally be happy to see it.

However, the remnants of the six countries, including Chu, Yan, Qi, and Wei, may not be accepted.

Even because of such a name, the Qin Empire was put into a passive situation. Ying Zheng considered almost all factors and gave up the Qin clan he liked the most.

The thoughts flashed in his mind. Ying Zheng looked at the ministers present and said word by word: "I have decided to abolish the Qin people, Chu people, and Zhao people from the Great Qin Empire from now on."

"From then on the Central Plains, all the people of the Great Qin Kingdom were called Huaxia people!"

"Huaxia, also known as Hua, also known as Xia, Zhuxia, etc. The term Huaxia was first seen in "Shangshu·Shu Zhou·Wucheng": "Huaxia is a barbarian, and it is not a matter of no way."

"Although Fu Sheng is far away and cannot be verified, I like the word "Huaxia" very much!"

"In ancient books, Hua and Xia were the Central Plains, and called the four directions the barbarian Rongdi. I deeply agree with this view, so the two words Hua Xia were combined as the clan name."

"With great etiquette, it is called Xia; with the beauty of the clothes, it is called Hua, and this is called Huaxia!"

...

"Your Majesty, during the Zhou Dynasty, all the clans who followed the Zhou rituals and obeyed the etiquette and righteousness were called Xia people, and Xia people were commonly called Xia. Confucius, and the Confucius was synonymous with Hua and Xia, and the Huaxia people have existed since ancient times!"

At this time, Chunyu Yue stood up and explained it for a quarter of an hour, which changed the atmosphere in the side hall.

"The Great Qin Empire has made innovations. I think the Qin clan can be used to demonstrate the great achievements of the old Qin people in unifying the world, so as to show that the old Qin people are the orthodox of the Great Qin Empire."

At this moment, Chunyu Yue, a Confucian doctor, began to dig a pit from Emperor Shin-Emperor for Confucianism, and at this moment, he tied all civil and military officials from the old Qin people in the Great Qin Empire together.

Ying Zheng, who was on the throne, felt a sank in his heart when he heard this, and he could no longer suppress his murderous intent.

As expected, before Ying Zheng was angry for too long, someone spoke first.

"Your Majesty, I think what Dr. Chunyu Yue said is very true. The name of the Qin clan is better than that of the Huaxia clan!" And it was not someone else's talk, but Meng Yi, the Xianyang ruling.

"Your Majesty, I think so too!"

Subsequently, the officials of the major officials in the Xianyang court followed closely, and the same major county magistrates followed one by one. At this moment, only Wang Wan, Wei Liao, Wang Ben and others had not spoken yet.

And this does not mean that Wang Wan and others noticed Chunyu Yue's sinister intentions, but they all knew that Ying Zheng had mentioned that he must have special intentions.

They actually agreed with Chunyu Yue’s suggestions. After all, the word “Qin” is not only the glory of the old Qin people, but also their glory.

What's more, the Qin Empire is very compatible with the Qin clan.

Ying Zheng was not surprised that his ministers were fooled by Chunyu Yue. This did not mean that all the civil and military officials in the Qin Dynasty were shallow, but that their vision was limited to this.

I didn't think about the far-reaching significance behind this incident at the first time.

After all, even Ying Zheng himself subconsciously chose the Qin clan instead of the Huaxia clan at the first time. Everyone has the ambition to leave their names in history.

The thoughts flashed in his mind. Ying Zheng looked at the ministers in the side hall deeply, chuckled, and said, "Chunyu Yue, I can remember that Confucius, the founder of Confucianism, said: "The descendants do not plan for Xia, and the barbarians will not infringe on China."

"It is even synonymous with Xia and Hua, not to mention that the Ying surname of our great Qin came from Boyi, the descendant of Zhuanxu, and Emperor Shun gave the Ying surname."

"What's wrong with the people of the Great Qin Empire using the Huaxia tribe, inheriting the glory of their ancestors and carrying it forward!"

On the side hall, Chun Yu Yue's move was not a problem. Even if Ying Zheng was filled with murderous intent, he would not be able to get upset about how dissatisfied with Chun Yu Yue.

We can only pass this level first and then settle the accounts after the autumn. At least, in this matter, Chunyu Yue and others must not succeed.

"Your Majesty, the old minister also thinks that the Qin clan is far more meaningful than the Huaxia clan. After all, the Great Qin Empire is an empire established by the old Qin people who fought bloody battles!"

At this time, Wen Tongjun also stood up. It was obvious that the Confucian scholars in the Doctoral Academy had probably reached a consensus in their hearts.

And just at this moment, Ying Zheng also felt the terror of Confucianism. Such a keen sense of smell was something that others did not have.

At this moment, Confucian scholars actually began to praise the old Qin people. It can be said that they can give anything for their own interests, and even change their positions at all costs.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that what Dr. Chunyu Yue said is somewhat fallacy. The Qin clan is too single. The Qin Empire is not the Qin State in the past."

Wang Wan's eyes flashed for a moment, and he knew in his heart that even he agreed with the word Qin clan, but the First Emperor obviously did not agree. At this time, he had to choose to save the situation.

At this point, Wang Wan looked at Ying Zheng and said, "The reason why the Great Qin Empire annexed the six kingdoms and unified the Central Plains was because of tolerance and openness."

"At this time, there was only one Great Qin Empire left on the Central Plains, and the Chu people, Qi people, and Zhao people all existed."

"The people of the Great Qin Empire are not limited to the old Qin people. The same people of Chu, Qi, and Zhao people are also people of our Great Qin Empire."

"Under such a situation, the Qin clan is too narrow-minded. I think the title of the Huaxia clan is more suitable for the current people of the Qin state."

...

As the left prime minister of the Great Qin Empire, Wang Wan was below one person and above ten thousand people. At this moment, he spoke completely and completely silent the entire side palace. They all knew that except Ying Zheng, the only one who was most qualified to decide everything here is Wang Wan.
