Was there mathematics in the Qin Dynasty?
According to historical records, Guangwu and Chen Sheng were beheaded because of the postponement of rainy days, and then they rebelled against the cruelty of Qin law, which also became the fuse of the demise of the Qin Dynasty. However, with the discovery of the mysterious ancient city in modern Hunan, 30,000 bamboo tubes were unearthed. The experts began to get excited. Why do they say that Qin Shihuang was misunderstood for thousands of years? What is recorded on the bamboo tube?

First, the laws of the Qin Dynasty were loose.

The punishment of military service personnel recorded in Qin bamboo slips is inconsistent with historical records. Bamboo slips say that if active duty soldiers are delayed, they will be punished according to the reasons. No penalty within three days, verbal warning for more than three days and less than five days, aggravating the corvee for six to ten days, and no penalty in rainy days. From this point of view, the laws of the Qin Dynasty were relatively loose.

Second, it contradicts the causes of Guangwu Uprising in Chen Sheng.

According to historical records, Guangwu and Chen Sheng were beheaded according to the Qin law because of the delay in rainy days. However, according to the unearthed bamboo slips, if the delay is caused by rainy days, it will not be punished, so this statement conflicts with historical records.

Third, pay attention to the construction of basic life.

The unearthed bamboo slips also mentioned that Qin Shihuang attached great importance to the construction of people's living foundation. The Qin dynasty had a complete medical education and a system of land tenancy for the people, which served the people's lives. Moreover, in education, they also found a more complete multiplication formula in bamboo slips, involving not only integers but also fractions.
