When the outside world was in a treacherous situation, Qin Luoheng was very calm in prison.

He looked at the prison in Tingwei's Mansion curiously, but found a strange man in a cell not far away.

This man actually wrote on the wall.

It is not written in Qin Zhuan, but another font.

Lishu!

Qin Luoheng's eyes changed slightly.

This was the first time he had seen someone write official script for so long in the Qin Dynasty, and it was written in an extremely square manner. If he remembered correctly, there was only one type of font recognized by the court, which was Qin seal script, and the rest were in non-official style.

Where did this person learn official script?

In a vaguely, he felt that this person was not writing, but creating his own fonts. To be precise, the official script may have been invented by this person.

Qin Luoheng wanted to ask, but he didn't know how to speak.

Finally, I just watched quietly.

Late at night.

The man stopped writing, sorted out his messy hair, and lay in prison, but his eyes were still staring at the words on the wall, as if thinking about how to improve it.

Sudden.

The sound of footsteps coming from outside the prison.

Langfu walked in.

He looked around and walked straight to Qin Luoheng's prison.

When Qin Luoheng met Langfu, he was stunned.

Ye smiled and said, "I am the prison in Tingwei Mansion. I have some friendship with other prisoners, so I can come in. Qin Shizi, you have committed a lot this time, and I don't want to get involved. However, this boy Lang has been talking in his ears, and I am really annoyed, so I just come in and take a look."

Qin Luoheng said respectfully: "Thank you for your concern. Please tell me to Lang Hefen for me, just say that I am fine in prison, so that they don't have to worry about me. I don't want you to be implicated because of my affairs."

Ye nodded and said, "I said that too, but these two boys didn't listen at all. Now that they met you, they should be relieved."

"But I can't do anything about you."

"When I came in, I asked the above. There are many people paying attention to your case. People from Huang should not dare to do things behind their backs. According to the information I know so far, you actually have a glimmer of hope."

"But I can't guarantee how to judge in the end."

Qin Luoheng said gratefully: "The superior official has a heart, I understand it in my heart."

Ye Wei asked with a slight forehead: "If you have any questions or if you want to bring them, you can tell me and I'll take them out for you."

Qin Luoheng pondered for a moment and said a few words, mainly to Bo Shu, just to make comforting words such as not worrying that she would not have anything to do.

At the end.

He couldn't help asking about the origin of the weird guy next to him.

Ye looked back, pondered in his mind for a moment, and said uncertainly: "The prison there seems to be called Cheng Miao. I have asked him before. In the 16th year of Qin Shihuang, Han had not been destroyed at that time. He was the county magistrate of Xiazhi County."

"When he destroyed Han, he was elected as a support camp by his current Neishi Teng, serving as a quarantine Sima, and was responsible for the entry and exit of grain. However, he was imprisoned just one month after joining the army."

Qin Luoheng's face showed a strange look.

It was almost a foregone conclusion that Qin destroyed Han, and it was also the best opportunity for officials of all sizes to take advantage of military merits. This person's eyes are so short-sighted, could he make mistakes at that time?

Ye guessed Qin Luoheng's thoughts and shook his head and said, "He did not violate military rules, nor did he break the law. His crime was that he wrote the wrong place name."

Hearing words.

Qin Luoheng immediately understood.

The official text of the Qin Dynasty was seal script, but Cheng Miao probably wrote official script. There was a big difference between seal script and official script, especially when Qin was using large seal script at that time, Cheng Miao could recognize official script, but other officials could not recognize it, and mistakenly thought that he had written the wrong place name.

So Cheng Miao was imprisoned.

Qin Luoheng said: "This is not a big mistake, right?"

Ye said: "At that time, Cheng Miao was the Sima of the Food and Forage, and was responsible for the supply of food and grass on the front line. Because of the word ", the food and grass that should have been sent to Yiyang was sent to Nanyang. The difference between the two places was more than 300 miles, which directly caused the Yiyang troops to starve to death for three people in ten days."

"Although the Qin Dynasty's law is detailed, it cannot find relevant provisions for the punishment. Therefore, the military inspector informed the judges of the State Government of the State Government about this matter. The judges of the judges gathered ten judges in Guanzhong to discuss the matter. The final reply was: Cheng Miao's crimes have no provisions and no precedent in the case. The court will be punished at the discretion of the court."

"He was also sent to Xianyang from Xiazhi County."

"The Tingwei was the current Prime Minister Wang Wan. The old Tingwei thought about his situation for several days and finally drafted a penalty order: Cheng Miao, the magistrate of Xiabi County, should not write official documents in non-official form, resulting in the army being cut off for ten days, starving to death, and three soldiers were sentenced to prison and pending death."

"Then......"

Before Ye could start talking, a voice came from the prison next to him.

Cheng Miao Zhenzhen said:

"Then I asked the old Tingwei, what is the official form of official script?"

"When Qin State had written characters, did there ever be any explicit regulations? I also served in the government office and read official documents of the government office. There are all eight books in the world. Why did this old court lieutenant convict the style of the book? "

"The old lieutenant is called Iron-faced law enforcement, what's the result?"

"After he investigated the official documents of the official office, he just changed the 'non-official style' in the penalty order to 'non-recognized style'. Isn't this also bullying me?"

"I asked the old Tingwei again."

"Qin Zheng seeks practical results and is recognized as useful. The style of calligraphy I wrote in the past was recognized by the government. Isn't this the government recognized by the government? Why do he now have to temporarily restrict it?"

"As a result, Wang Wan directly convicted me and said, "Cheng Miao wrote, which led to someone's mistake, so he was guilty." Of course, I was not convinced. I begged again, but I did not write the wrong words. If there is any mistake, it is the guilt of the person who admits the mistake. What am I guilty?"

"This old guy directly slapped the table and said, 'I'm the one who starved to kill the soldiers. This is a fact. Those who admit their mistakes are guilty. How can those who write are innocent? They are imprisoned first, and he will report to the King of Qin to make a decision', and then lock me up in the Tingwei Mansion."

"There is no writing! The rules are not written!"

"I, Cheng Miao, is not guilty!"

Qin Luoheng felt a little ashamed when he heard Cheng Miao's words.

So stubborn!

Cheng Miao called Wang Wan the old lieutenant in front, and then began to call Wang Wan directly, and later he called him the old thing, which was really a depression in his heart.

immediately.

Qin Luoheng realized something was wrong.

Asked:

"No."

"Wang Wan should not cheat Cheng Miao on this matter. Since he promised to report it, he must have reported it. Why is Cheng Miao still locked up in it?"

Ye showed a hint of embarrassment.

He whispered: "After the old prime minister reported, Lu Xiang was deposed."

"At that time, the Prime Minister's Mansion was in chaos, and the real institution in charge suddenly became the Tingwei Mansion. Wang Wan's Tingwei's memorials were accumulated in the Prime Minister's Mansion. The prime minister who took office was Huang Jingxiu. This man had no talent and he retreated without long after he was the blame."

"Then the prime minister was replaced by Wang Wan."

"By then, the memorial had accumulated for more than a year. After thinking for a long time, Prime Minister Wang brought Cheng Miao's affairs back to the Tingwei Mansion and asked Li Sitingwei to deal with it. At that time, the Qin Dynasty was attacking Zhao, and the Tingwei Mansion's energy was put on it, and the matter was put on hold again."

"Let Li Si handle this matter later and decided to apply for a pardon from His Majesty. But by chance, the Tingwei Mansion was rectifying the text. Li Si Tingwei asked him a few words, wanting to hear his views on the text, and also revealed that Xiaozhuan would be the unified text of the Great Qin."

"result......"

"This Cheng Miao directly said, 'Xiaozun is not as good as official script', and also suggested that the world will use official script as the basis, small seal script as the auxiliary, small seal script as official documents, calligraphy as the text, and contract documents. The effect is only in confirmation, while official script is applicable to any other situation, and the effect is in quick and convenient."

"I also say that Li Tingwei's calligraphy is flashy but not real, and should not be a model for the world's example."

"Then......"

"I've been locked up until now."

Hearing words.

Qin Luoheng's mouth twitched slightly.

Don't do it and never die.

Cheng Miao is working to death.

It is not unfair for him to be imprisoned for more than ten years.

Hearing Ye's words, Cheng Miao looked unhappy and said, "The unified writing of the Great Qin Dynasty is originally pragmatic and simple. If you don't need simpler official script, you can use the second-hand small seal script. Isn't this a waste of time?"

"What's wrong with me?"

"Since the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, writing in the world has been based on convenience, and eight writing methods have been generated, namely the eight essays recognized by the world, namely the large seal script, small seal script, engraving talismans, insect script, copying seals, signature script, chanting script and official script."

"The name of official script is taken from the 'Book of Auxiliary (Secretary)'."

"It's just that no one has sorted it out in the past, so there are differences in official scripts in different places, and even the official scripts written by each person are not the same."

"In the past ten years, I have sorted it out."

When talking about official script, Cheng Miao saw great spirit.

He said: "The official script is a calligraphy created by Xuli for quick writing. The change in official script is to transform the pictograms of ancient seal script into strokes, take the simplest strokes and use straight square as the shape. This is not only fast to write, but also easy to recognize."
