Chapter 1548 The Library of the Prosperous Tang Dynasty
Let's say that Dai Zhou left the Daming Palace and headed in the direction of the Tang Dynasty University.
I met many people along the way.
These people have the same purpose as him.
That is near Shengtang University.
It's been a long time since it's been as lively as it is today.
It feels even grander than the Chinese New Year!
There must be something big announced soon, right?!
The enthusiastic people were not particularly polite to Dai Zhou, because Dai Zhou was very easy to talk to, and in the hearts of the people, he helped the Shengtang Group a lot.
Therefore, this time they could be said to have laughed and chatted with Dai Zhou all the way.
When they came within one kilometer of their destination, they saw a round tall building appearing in front of them.
It can be said that Dai Zhou has been everywhere in Chang'an for a while, but he is rarely seen here.
This building should be as high as ten stories in total.
Because Li Shimin had previously issued an order that no building should be built with more than ten floors, so subsequent buildings have been kept at ten floors.
Also, the area here is very large.
Five hundred acres of land, 330,000 square meters. This is a terrible area, and it can accommodate a lot of people.
Many people don't know what this building is used for.
Because before it was built, there was nothing here.
Now, several big characters appear.
Someone with sharp eyes said: "Library of the prosperous Tang Dynasty."
This should be another shocking existence created by Li Min. It can be called a national level!
When it comes to libraries, especially the libraries of imperial courts, each dynasty has different names.
The palace of Qin Dynasty preserved cultural relics and ancient books called the Golden Chamber and Stone Chamber.
The places where the Han Dynasty palace collected books include Tianlu Pavilion, Shiqu Pavilion, and Qilin Pavilion.
Until the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, rulers of each dynasty were enthusiastic about collecting books. The more famous one is that Emperor Wu of Liang also established the "Wende Hall" and "Hualin Garden" to collect books. By his later years, the collection had exceeded 70,000 volumes.
Until the Sui Dynasty, where the palace collected books, the Secret Pavilion, Guanwen Hall and Jiaze Hall were the most famous.
Finally, in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, the old collection of the Sui Dynasty palace was accepted and the Tang Dynasty palace collection was established. The Jixian Palace Academy, which was established in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, developed from the position of secretary in charge of the atlas in the Sui Dynasty and formed the Tang Palace
One of the most important royal caches.
But no one uses it as a library.
So when someone pronounces this name.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then began to speculate.
"A library? Is it a library where pictures come first and then books?"
"Maybe it's the word "library"?
If it were a library, the meaning would be different.
Library refers to the place where ancient professors first learned. See "New Book of Tang Dynasty·The Concubine's Biography·Shangguan Zhaorong": "Wan'er persuaded the emperor to build a large library, increase scholars, and recruit famous ministers and Confucian scholars."
If it is a place for teaching beginners, is it really necessary?
A museum for young children?
That is absolutely unnecessary.
It is so big and has more than one floor. If it is for children, it seems wrong and unsafe!
But some people still say for sure:
"The word "library" is quite appropriate, but why does it need to be named in the picture?"
"I think it's through illustrations that the children can better understand the meaning."
"He is indeed a scholar. He has great insights!"
"Where, where! Sir, the naming is right!"
…
Everyone agrees.
Everyone obviously doesn’t know what the real significance of this library is. They don’t know that tens of thousands of books can be accommodated here. These are treasures of mankind!
Future social development depends on them! It is a kind of inheritance!
Dai Zhou had a different view on what the common people said.
"I think that if it is a library, then sir, there may be no need to build such a tall building. There must be other reasons. It is better to use it as a library. What do you think?"
As soon as he said this, everyone was shocked.
Library.
"It makes sense! What does the Minister think?"
"Then it should be a library for collecting books! Judging from your approach, it is more appropriate to use it as a library for collecting books."
Dai Zhou's words attracted the approval of some people.
Yes, it feels like it is in line with Li Min's approach to build a library for collecting books.
Therefore, a bunch of people started to slap Rainbow Fart again. They said he was very insightful and very powerful! Wait!
Dai Zhou felt very happy after listening to it. He felt a little light.
During this period of time, he fought with the people.
This is a rare thing.
He also enjoys the feeling of being noticed.
Someone else said: "When the group started construction, someone must have applied for it. The minister must have known about it a long time ago, right?"
It’s no wonder that people think this is the case!
But this is not the case!
In response, Dai Zhou said: "I accepted your majesty's order and opened the door to the group. As long as it is used for construction, I will not ask about the specific work. Therefore, I really don't know what is going to be done here."
I know. I was just guessing just now."
In this way, the people are convinced.
People were flattering him, talking and laughing!
At this moment, Li Min's voice came from the distance.
His voice interrupted everyone's conversation.
“Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend this opening ceremony of the library!”
The sound travels far.
It's already started!
Everyone waiting subconsciously quickened their pace.
"Hurry over, it starts now!"
"Shang Shu, it's not convenient for us to stay with you longer, so I'll take my leave!"
"Come on, let's run over, the ceremony is about to begin now!"
"Hurry up! Hurry up!"
"I'm coming!"
…
The people shouted and shouted.
They wanted to go there and participate as soon as possible.
Maybe something good will happen to Li Min by then.
You might as well get some benefits from it.
Every time Li Min appears, it means something good is happening, right?
At least in terms of information, they knew it in advance, and it seemed to be very good as a source of conversation between friends.
Dai Zhou looked at the time on the clock tower.
"Looks like you're going to be late!"
If Li Shimin hadn't allowed him to enter the palace, he would have been sitting at the scene, drinking tea and watching Li Min introduce everything about the library.
So, he followed everyone and started to trot.
Not only did these people speed up, but people came from all directions.
Such momentum was shocking. Even Li Shimin, who was in the Daming Palace at this time, actually vaguely heard something.
But he didn't particularly care.
After all, Li Min did this kind of thing not once or twice.
He often does this.
So, everyone is used to it.
Unless something unusual is given now, it will be difficult to get Li Shimin interested.
Rather than watching what is happening in the distance, it is better to lie down and enjoy the song.
Since he got the radio, his frequency of using the phone has also become less frequent.
Because the radio does not require human resources to operate, it saves a lot of cumbersome things.
