Datang: It’s a showdown, I’m an all-around master

Chapter 263 Suggestions on Kuo Di Zhi
In fact, Li Tai is only now beginning to compile Kuo Di Zhi.As of today, a small number of manuscripts are available.

It just suddenly occurred to me that Yi Yin is talented, well-educated, and outstanding in all aspects.

He is an expert-level figure.

Therefore, at the suggestion of Sima Su of Wei Wangfu, Li Tai came to find Yi Yin and asked him for advice.

Perhaps, with Yi Yin's guidance, the compilation of "Kuo Di Zhi" will be even more effective with half the effort!
Moreover, the matter of compiling and revising "Kuo Di Zhi" was actually Sima Su's suggestion to Li Tai.

Li Tai is also considered a smart person.

As Li Shimin's son, he knew very well that what his father cared most about was the geography and division of the whole country.

As a prince, of course he should share his father's worries and problems.

Li Tai knew very well that if he could clearly divide Datang's region and geography, his father would definitely appreciate it, and his status in his father's heart would be greatly improved.

Even, it is possible to surpass the elder brother Li Chengqian.

For this reason, Li Tai adopted Sima Su's suggestion and decided to revise and compile Kuo Di Zhi.

Yi Yin followed Li Tai to Wei Wangfu.

Although Wei Wang's mansion is not small, Ye is considered grand, but in Yi Yin's eyes, it looks like a child's house.

After all, against the backdrop of the Yihe Garden, the Wei Palace looks a bit inconspicuous!

"Brother-in-law, compared with Yihe Garden, there is really a big difference." Li Tai said looking at his Wei Palace.

Yi Yin heard the words, smiled, and said: "How many people do you have here, and how many people do I have in Yihe Garden? Have you thought about this problem?"

Hearing this, Li Tai smiled, and said: "That's true, the people in brother-in-law's Yihe Garden are also dozens of times that of Wei Wang's Mansion!"

"Even so, my Yihe Garden cannot compare with your Wei Palace."

Hearing this, Li Tai looked at Yi Yin suspiciously.

Yi Yin said: "It's not a type, and it's not a level!"

Li Tai blushed when he heard the words, and said: "What brother-in-law said is absolutely true! Naturally, my Wei Palace cannot be compared with brother-in-law's Yihe Garden. This one is in the sky and the other is on the ground!"

Yi Yin shook his head and said, "King Wei, that's not what you mean."

"What does that mean? Brother-in-law." Li Tai still didn't understand Yi Yin's meaning, and still looked at Yi Yin suspiciously.

Yi Yin said: "The level I'm talking about is naturally your Wei Palace's level is higher."

"Brother-in-law is really good at joking." Li Tai looked at Yi Yin and said, "No matter in terms of area, decoration, specifications, design, etc., the Wei Palace cannot compare with Yihe Garden."

"King Wei, your identity is royal, and Yihe Garden is only for agricultural use. It's just a point, and the judgment will be judged!" Yi Yin said.

Wei Wang Li Tai also made no secrets.

After listening to Yi Yin's words, he laughed and said, "According to brother-in-law, that's normal. But don't forget, brother-in-law, you are also a member of our royal family!"

Yi Yindao hadn't thought of this yet.

After all, in ancient times, there was still a difference between men and women.

Although she is a princess, her status is quite different from that of a prince!

The status of princes and princes is also different. If they are both princes, the status of princes is much more noble.

After all, the person who will inherit the throne in the future should be more honorable in front of anyone.

It is precisely because of this that the battle for the crown prince among the princes is very fierce.

Moreover, it seems to happen in every dynasty and every generation.

Yi Yin looked at Li Tai and said, "King Wei, I can't compare with you. Although I'm with the princess, I still have different identities. The Yihe Garden can't be compared with Wei Wangfu after all."

The two chatted and entered the mansion together.

Some maids have already gone to make tea.

Li Tai said to a servant girl: "Yan'er, go and call Mr. Sima here, and tell him that I have something to look for him."

The girl named Yan'er was also delicate and elf, after hearing Li Tai's words, she ran out quickly.

"Yan'er, slow down, be careful not to fall!" Li Tai reminded in the room.

This move surprised Yi Yin who was on the side.

He didn't expect that Li Tai was still such a caring person.

Even he himself can't do this.

Usually he is careless towards Ziyan Ruyanfeiyan, he has never been so careful.

"Wei Wangzheng is really amazing, he cares so much about a maid, it's admirable!"

Yi Yin couldn't help but praise.

This is sincere admiration.

Yi Yin even felt that he should learn from Li Tai, and this style needs to be carried forward.

Li Tai smiled when he heard this, and said: "Brother-in-law doesn't know something, this Yaner, she often falls, walks in a panic all the time, never careless, I just remind him every time."

Yi Yin nodded and said, "It's really admirable that King Wei is so careful. I was thinking just now that I will learn from King Wei in the future."

"My brother-in-law is modest." Li Tai said with a smile, "I want to learn from my brother-in-law. My brother-in-law really knows too much. It can be said that he knows astronomy from the top and geography from the bottom. The contribution is so great, I really want to learn from my brother-in-law."

Yi Yin shook his head and said, "Actually, I'm not as good as you said. I'm not as good as Li Chunfeng and Wang Xiaotong when I know astronomy, and I'm not as good as you when I know geography. Are you going to revise and compile "Kuodi "Records"? If you don't have a wealth of knowledge, how can you do this kind of thing?"

After Yi Yin finished speaking, he looked at Li Tai and laughed: "King Wei, do you think so?"

Li Tai laughed, and said: "Actually, the idea of ​​revising and compiling "Kuo Dizhi" was suggested to me by Mr. Sima Su. Mr. Sima Su also paid great attention to the Datang region and attached great importance to it. He happened to be in our Wei Wangfu, that's exactly the case, I took advantage of his interest to implement this idea."

"Since ancient times, territory has been very important to a country. Although Mr. Sima Su suggested it, if the King of Wei does not implement it, it will not work. In the final analysis, it is also the credit of you, King Wei!"

Li Tai laughed when he heard this.

At this moment, Yan'er came in with Sima Su.

After entering the door, Sima Su cupped his hands to Yi Yin who was beside Li Tai, and said, "This must be the son-in-law."

Hearing this, Li Tai hurriedly said, "Mr. Sima, what you said is a bit inappropriate. There are too many son-in-laws, so is Fang Yiai, and so is Cheng Chuliang!"

Sima Su blushed slightly, and said with a smile: "What the king of Wei said is that I was negligent, this must be General Yi Yi's genius doctor!"

Li Tai nodded and said, "This time is fine, Mr. Sima, this is my brother-in-law Yi Yin."

Sima Su saluted again.

Yi Yin had no choice but to return the gift.

In ancient times, this aspect of etiquette was more complicated.

Yi Yin didn't pay much attention to etiquette at first, but Sima Su was so polite, he couldn't force him, he could only return the courtesy.

"Mr. Sima, please sit down!" Yi Yin looked at Sima Su and said.

Sima Su nodded and sat down.

Yi Yin looked at Li Tai and said, "The king of Wei came to me because of the book "Kuo Di Zhi". I don't know about this book..."

Li Taidao: "Brother-in-law, in fact, we have just started compiling the book "Kuo Di Zhi", and we already have hundreds of pages of manuscript paper! The reason why I came to you is because Mr. Sima thinks that you are better at this aspect." Good at it, it may give us some valuable suggestions, so that we can spend a lot of time without talking.”

Sima Su looked at Yi Yin, smiled, and said, "Miraculous doctor Yi, I have read your excellent works. Those poems are so well written, they are really admirable and amazing! In this regard, you must know better than us. Therefore, I specially asked King Wei to invite you here to give us some advice."

The other party praised him so much, Yi Yin felt that if he was more modest at this time, it would become a bit hypocritical.

At that moment he looked at Li Tai and said, "King Wei, how many of you co-edited this book?"

Li Tai replied: "There are a lot of people. We are divided into six groups. From one to six, Mr. Sima Su is in charge of the first group, I am in charge of the second group, Zhuo Lang Xiao Deyan is in charge of the third group, secretary Lang Gu Yin In charge of the fourth group, Gongcao Junjun Xie Yan in charge of the fifth group, Jiang Yaqing in charge of the sixth group."

Yi Yin heard the words and said: "The team is very large, it seems that what King Wei is going to do is no small matter!"

Sima Su said: "Indeed, the king of Wei will not set an example. If he is determined to do it, it will be a big deal!"

At this point, Yi Yin was no longer polite.

He looked at Li Tai and said, "King Wei, call all the team leaders of your teams, and bring over 100 pages of manuscripts that you have compiled. After I look at your manuscripts, to give advice.”

This Li Tai naturally understood, and Sima Su also understood.

At the moment, Li Tai asked Yan'er to make up the study.

Yan'er still ran out in a panic, and Li Tai didn't forget to remind her.

"Yan'er, be careful!"

"understood!"

Yan'er's voice is very pleasant, like a bird chirping!

During this period, Yi Yin chatted with Li Tai and Sima Su again.

"About the original intention of this "Kuo Di Zhi", what do you think, King Wei!" Yi Yin asked while looking at Li Tai.

Li Tai thought for a while, and replied: "I just want to clearly divide and introduce the geographic regions of the Tang Dynasty."

Yi Yin still knows a little about books such as "Kuo Di Zhi". This type of book is actually equivalent to "Gazetteer", "Gazetteer", "Guo Dian", "Guo Zhi", "Provincial Dian" in modern society. , "Provincial Chronicles" and other books.

I have seen this kind of thing before time travel.

There is probably some understanding of this.

Yi Yin thought for a while, and said: "Since it is "Kuo Di Zhi", it should cover everything and include many things."

Sima Su nodded and said, "Indeed."

At this moment, Yan'er came in with Xiao Deyan, Gu Yin, Xie Yan and Jiang Yaqing.

Looking at the four of Xiao Deyan, Yi Yin liked them very much.

In fact, Xiao Deyan, Gu Yin, Xie Yan, and Jiang Yaqing are not only knowledgeable and talented, but also upright, and Yi Yin likes them very much.

All four of them held manuscript paper in their hands.

When they saw Yi Yin, they all saluted.

Yi Yin didn't lose his etiquette. When he saw the other party salute, he returned the salute.

"Show the manuscript paper to Miracle Doctor Yi." King Wei ordered immediately.

The four of Xiao Deyan hurriedly handed the manuscript paper to Yi Yin.

Yi Yin read the results one by one.

Look carefully.

After a while, he returned the manuscript paper to Xiao Deyan and the others, saying, "Thanks for your hard work!"

"Brother-in-law, what do you think?" Li Tai looked at Yi Yin and asked.

Yi Yin heard the words and said, "It's boring, let's do it all over again."

When everyone heard the words, they all looked at Yi Yin.

Does this prove that the hard work of these days was in vain?
Yi Yin said: "It's not that you can't do it, it's just that it's very monotonous. It's very monotonous if you just narrate and comment on the Datang area without other things."

"Miraculous Doctor Yi, then give us some advice." Sima Su looked at Yi Yin and said.

Yi Yin thought for a while and said: "Since it is "Kuo Di Zhi", a single word "Guo Di Zhi" includes many things. So, everyone can start from these aspects."

Sima Su, Xiao Deyan, Gu Yin and others all listened carefully.

Yi Yin continued: "At this time, my Tang Dynasty is divided into ten states, 350 and eight prefectures. Among the 350 and eight prefectures, there are 41 and Dudufu, 550 counties. You can learn more about scriptures according to the division of regions. Topography, describes the history of the establishment of prefectures and counties, the application of place names, the allusions of place names, as well as mountains, rivers, products, historic sites, scenic spots, plank roads, customs, characters, anecdotes, etc.

"Classify each category. For example, this road includes those prefectures and counties, and introduce all the things I just said. In this way, if someone looks up the information of a certain area in the future, they will It's pretty clear where it is so it's easy to find."

"In the narrative, we can add comments and lyricism, which makes people look more interesting, vivid, like swimming in it."

After hearing this, Sima Su, Xiao Deyan, Gu Yin and others thought it was very reasonable.

Sima Su said: "Miraculous Doctor Yi's suggestion is very good. Before, we just wanted to introduce the geographical location and regional settings of a state and county alone. If that is the case, it would not make much sense. The method that Miracle Doctor Yi said is very Good. When compiled with Kuo Di Zhi, it will be a huge encyclopedia."

Yi Yin nodded and said, "That's the reason. In the future, "Kuo Di Zhi" must be a huge encyclopedia, and there will be many, many people who need it!"

Sima Su said: "Fortunately, we have called Miracle Doctor Yi to help us take a look, otherwise, we would have spent a lot of time doing useless things."

Yi Yin said: "It's not useless. These manuscripts of yours are actually only one category, and it's not unusable. My suggestion is to adjust a group to be responsible for this category of compilation."

"Don't throw away these manuscripts, they are still useful."

Xiao Deyan said: "Miraculous Doctor Yi's suggestion is very good. Our six groups are first divided into six groups, and each is responsible for a category. After compiling these six categories, we will divide the labor to compile other categories."

Yi Yin nodded and said, "That's right, one group is in charge of one category, and after all these are compiled, the whole set of edits will be performed."

"However, even this will take a lot of time." Yi Yin added.

"We are determined to complete it," Li Tai said.

"It must be a good thing to have such perseverance!" Yi Yin praised, "When compiled in the future, this book will have great significance, whether it has a huge impact on the present or future generations, I dare Definitely."

"As long as you can get the affirmation of Doctor Yi, that's the best!"

Sima Su said.
