After the unification of the six countries, Ying Zheng thought that he was highly valued by Huang San and had contributed to the five emperors, so he called the emperor and the emperor "the emperor", thus calling himself the first emperor, which means starting with him. From then on, all the monarchs in China were called emperors, and later generations were called II and III, and even the whole world circulated endlessly.
In 26 years, Wang Zheng ascended the throne of Qin State and finally unified China. At the beginning of the world, the first thing Qin, 39, was eager to do was to redefine his title.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, governors of various countries called "Jun" or "Wang". At the end of the Warring States period, Qin and Qi were once called "emperors", but this title was different at that time. Qin, who dominated the country, thought that these titles in the past were not enough to show his respect. "Today's name is even less important, so it is impossible to call it success and pass it on to future generations." He ordered ministers to discuss titles.
After some discussions, Prime Minister Wang Wan, jie feng, Tingwei Lisi and others thought that the government of the Qin Dynasty was "Xingyi soldiers, killing residual thieves and leveling the world", and its achievements were "unprecedented since ancient times, and the five emperors were far behind". Quoting the traditional honorific words, it is said that "emperors, Huangdi, Tai Huang and Tai Huang were the most expensive in ancient times", and it is suggested that the title of "Tai Huang" should be adopted by the King of Qin. However, Qin Shihuang was not satisfied with this. He only used the word "emperor" and added the word "emperor" under it, creating a new title for himself.
Judging from the above passage, I think it is really to highlight personal achievements. I looked it up online. This question is a 20 12 Hainan volume history test, and the answer is also C.
But what I don't understand is that many articles say that the emergence of the title of "Emperor" is not only a simple name change, but also reflects the emergence of a new ruling concept. In ancient times, "emperor" meant "great", and people sometimes called ancestor gods and other gods "emperor". "Emperor" is the highest god who dominates everything in ancient people's imagination. Qin Shihuang combined the words "emperor" and "emperor" into one. First, it shows that he wants to express his supreme status and authority, which is given by God, that is, "the supreme power is given by God"; Second, it reflects that he is not satisfied with being only the ruler of the world, but also a god.
But I think this is untenable and can't be completely seen from the title. Because the emphasis is on the words "Huang San, who is highly respected and has made contributions to the Five Emperors", it is used to publicize that his achievements are higher than before.
History should be skeptical. This kind of questioning spirit is very good, and history should also accommodate skeptical views. I am especially opposed to those teachers who hold the same reference answers. You are doing very well. I encourage you. Let's go
