The main purpose of Qin Shihuang burning books and burying Confucianism

To strengthen the consolidation of ideological rule, Qin Shihuang accepted Lisi's suggestion and issued a book burning order, stipulating that except for the government, only books about medical divination planting were allowed to be left by the people, and all other books were burned; Whoever talks about Confucian poetry books again in the future will be sentenced to death. He buried alive a group of Confucian scholars who secretly criticized him in Xianyang. This is the "burning books to bury Confucianism" in history.
