The Emperor of Qin gave six handsome men

Chapter 268 Daughter's Direction

Qin Xingfu decided to give it a try first, and then looked up information related to ancient Greek characters.

After studying the materials for three days, she wrote several math problems and philosophy questions in Greek and Latin, copied several copies and sent them to Han Xin, asking him to help find someone who could solve one of them. Anyone who could send it to her would be able to obtain the status of a Qin commoner after passing the test.

She believed that as long as there were huge benefits, someone would come out. After all, it was freedom, as well as the temptation of money and power.

No one would not be tempted. There will always be brave men when there is a big reward. She will just sit and wait for the talent.

Queen Qin waited for a few days, and when she saw that she was finally free, she pestered her and asked.

"Mom, I have a question. I feel that what the teacher and classmates said is not very interesting, and what Yuan's father said is also very empty, so I want to ask you for advice, is that okay?"

The child took the initiative to come to me and asked so many people, it seems to be a rather tricky problem.

"Hmm? Really? What's the problem that's bothering you so much? Talk to mom and we can discuss it together."

The mother and daughter went to the study together. She did not impose her studies on the children. All learning depended on their initiative. After all, she was like that in the beginning.

Queen Qin sat down and immediately expressed her doubts.

"I just read the Tao Te Ching a few days ago, and I don't quite understand the 'Tao' in it. Mom, what is the 'Tao'?"

This is a philosophical question, and Qin Xingfu can't help but think about it carefully.

"First, let's look at the Tao Te Ching, which is Lao Tzu's writing. He believed that Tao is the origin and universal law of the universe, and all things in the world are born from Tao. The process of Tao generating the world is "Tao generates one, one generates two, two generates three, and three generates all things." Although Tao exists in the world, it is different from specific things. It is the thing that constitutes the common essence of the world. Tao can be everything."

Queen Qin nodded. This result was similar to what the Master and the others had said, but she thought it was too empty and not specific at all.

Seeing that her daughter was not very satisfied, Qin Xingfu continued.

"In fact, the essence of Tao can be discussed from the aspects of life, the origin of the universe, and the macro-philosophical worldview."

Queen Qin suddenly became energetic. How can I explain this?

"Mom, please tell me, I want to know what that macro-philosophical worldview is?"

Qin Xingfu scratched his chin: "Let me think about it. I still need to think about it. Let's talk about it from the perspective of life. Tao is the origin of life, the movement and law of life, and covers the life of the universe, the life of all things in the world, and the life of human beings..."

It was rare for Queen Qin to pester her with questions like this. The generation gap between mother and daughter was gradually narrowing. The more Queen Qin listened, the more excited she became. She asked more and more questions, especially about philosophy.

Qin Xingfu explained philosophy to her from the shallower to the deeper, from the outside to the inside. The child was very talented in this area, and Qin Xingfu unconsciously looked up the materials on the history of Chinese and Western philosophy that she had learned.

"Baby, many people outside say that mom is a fairy. Do you think mom is a fairy?"

Queen Qin shook her head and hugged her coquettishly.

"Mom is a human, not a god."

Qin Xingfu touched her head, as if opening up his own secret.

"Mom is indeed a human, but she is not quite like you. According to normal historical development, Mom is from more than 2,000 years in the future. The history there is very different from the present. Just treat it as a story..."

Once the beginning was revealed, the rest was very simple. Queen Qin just felt it was absurd and a little unbelievable, her eyes widened.

He has already memorized the history from ancient times to the present. In addition to talking about history, he also talks about the various changes in thoughts during the same period.

Queen Qin seemed to see a series of pictures in front of her eyes. Scenes from that history flashed before her eyes. Many collisions of ideas had occurred, making her happy.

From the initial belief in God and nature, to the subsequent religions, the ideological conflicts between Taoism and Buddhism, and the evolution of foreign philosophy, to later philosophy, more emphasis has been placed on people and the relationship between people and nature.

"Mom, I want to be a philosopher too!"

The Queen of Qin seemed to have found the goal of her life. It turned out that the way to leave a good name through the ages was not necessarily to become a powerful official, but also to influence future generations with her thoughts. Confucius and Laozi could both leave their names through the ages, so could she.

"Baby it's great!"

Qin Xingfu smiled and gave her a thumbs up, praising her with a look of admiration and love in her eyes. At this moment, Queen Qin seemed to have suddenly remembered something important, and her originally relaxed and happy expression was instantly replaced by deep worry.

She quickly reached out her hand, tightly grasped the other person's arm, and asked anxiously, "Mom, you have never been to this place before! But now everything has become very different. Will this have any bad effects on you?"

Qin Xingfu sighed helplessly, shook his head and said, "To be honest, kid, I'm not sure if I will be affected. Maybe nothing will happen, but maybe one day I will suddenly disappear without a trace. After all, I have been here for more than ten years, almost twenty years, and it seems that there has not been much change so far."

When Queen Qin heard that her mother might suddenly disappear, her heart suddenly tightened and a deep sense of panic surged in her heart.

She opened her arms without hesitation and hugged her mother tightly, as if she was afraid that her mother would leave her in the next second. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she shouted with a trembling voice: "Mom..."

Qin Xingfu sensed her daughter's uneasiness and fear, and quickly patted her back gently, saying softly, "Okay, baby, don't worry too much. That shouldn't happen. Come on, Mom will teach you to recognize the characters in our world now."

As she spoke, she took Queen Qin's hand and prepared to begin imparting the knowledge from another world.

First, the characters. The simplified characters look very concise and simple. Queen Qin learned them very quickly and she found that they were actually very good.

"Mom, why don't you just move all these things here? Wouldn't that save a lot of time?"

"Baby, everything has its own laws of development. Mommy has brought out a lot of things, and most of the time I start from scratch. Some people can't keep up, and some people can't learn. Mommy feels very tired. Why do you think this is the case?"

Qin Xingfu threw the question to her to think about, and Queen Qin thought about it and said.

"Because what you have brought out violates the laws of development of things. It's like building a house. You have built more than a dozen floors before you even have a foundation."

"Baby it's great!"
