电视剧《康熙微服私访记》中三皇子对南怀仁说了一句“读了二十五史就知道了”,剧中康熙皇帝则说过一次“二十四史”。 “二十四史”之名始于清乾隆时。《明史》定稿后,乾隆诏刊二十二史,又诏增《旧唐书》,并从《永乐大典》中辑出薛居正《旧五代史》,合称为二十四史。 In the drama “The Emperor Kangxi Apprentice”, the three princes said to Nan Huai-ren that “after twenty-five years of history has been read,” the emperor of Kangxi called the “Twenty-Four Histories.” The name of “Twenty-Four Histories” began in Qing Emperor Qianlong. After the finalization of Ming History, Emperor Qianlong edged through the history of the Twenty-two Dynasties and edged the Old Tang Book, and edited Xue Juzheng’s Old Five Dynasties History from the Yongle Dagudi.
