burning books and burying Confucian scholars alive

It was the scholar who burned books and buried Confucianism. The reason why Confucian scholars were buried was because the literati at that time liked to discuss political affairs and judge the gains and losses of Qin Shihuang's administration. Moreover, at that time, the world was just unified, people were unstable, and the old headquarters of the six countries still existed. In addition, the situation of a hundred schools of thought contending is not conducive to the unity of ideology and culture. Qin Shihuang ordered the burial of Confucian scholars, that is, literati rather than charlatans, and burned a large number of ancient books. Although it is beneficial to the unification of China and the spread of legalist thought in some aspects, it also has many valuable points.
