Chapter 11: Liu San's Collection

In the evening, Zhu Di's father and son, as well as the monk Daoyan, were reluctant to leave the barracks, especially the old monk, who was even more intoxicated and had no reserve at all.

When I got on the horse, I accidentally fell and squatted, got up and patted the soil, and was still laughing!

Zhu Gaochi was so frightened that he secretly leaned into Zhu Di's ear, "Father, isn't he sick?" ”

Zhu Di shook his head and sighed: "This is called Chaowen Dao, Xi can die!" What a great friend I've made! This time, Zhu Di was convinced, he had nothing to say, and even looked at Zhu Gaochi's eyes much gentler, his fat son is really a little lucky star!

"It's actually Guo Shoujing's heir, this time you can get a treasure!"

Zhu Di said meaningfully.

Who is this Guo Shoujing?

What's so great about it that deserves Zhu Di's admiration?

In fact, if you change to another vassal king, you may not be so out of shape, but Zhu Di is different, he is in the former Yuan capital, here, there are too many traces of Guo Shoujing!

First of all, the capital city was built by Guo Shoujing, and the palace where Zhu Di lived every day was left by others. Secondly, the Grand Canal, from Tongzhou to Dadu Jishuitan, this section is called Tonghui River, which is also repaired by Guo Shoujing.

The food supply in Beiping is all dependent on the canal, Zhu Di went to check it several times, and saw with his own eyes Guo Shoujing's sluice dam and doumen, which are beautiful and practical, and after a hundred years, they can still be born!

There are only two words: admire!

Guo Shoujing is indeed a great character, which can be called the dark history of the Yuan Dynasty, a rare bright color!

He is a native of Hebei, with a family history, and he has been smart and studious since he was a child. Guo Shoujing's knowledge was not limited to Confucian classics, he was proficient in astronomy, arithmetic, and even water conservancy engineering.

At the age of twenty, he personally directed the dredging of the river in his hometown and repaired the stone bridge that had been submerged for many years, and it has been out of control ever since...... Everywhere canals and dams were built to irrigate farmland.

Later, Guo Shoujing entered the Ministry of Industry and participated in the revision of the new calendar.

Guo Shoujing is like a fish in water, he created and improved more than a dozen astronomical instruments and meters, such as Jianyi, Gui Table, Weather Pole Instrument, Armillary Celestial Phenomenon, Yang Yi, Liyun Instrument, Jingfu, Peep Table, etc.; Twenty-seven observation stations were set up in various localities and a large-scale "four-sea survey" was conducted.

The astronomical calendar works completed before and after include 14 kinds of works, such as "Tuibu", "Licheng", "Draft of the Calendar", "Ritual Method", "Upper, Middle and Lower Three Calendar Notes" and "The Source of the Calendar", with a total of 105 volumes, which can be called the equivalent of works!

And the most commendable is the "Chronological Calendar", which is outrageously accurate, almost the same as the Gregorian calendar that was used in later generations!

There is no doubt that Guo Shoujing is a great astronomer, water expert, doer, and scientist! His achievements can be compared to Shen Kuo, far from being comparable to those who can only chant the wind and the moon.

Although Guo Shoujing served the dim Yuan Dynasty, he was very lucky, not to mention the prime minister, and lived to be 86 years old, which can be called a blessing and longevity.

It's just that more than 30 years after Guo Shoujing's death, a peasant uprising surged, and finally overthrew the Great Yuan Dynasty, which he had been loyal to all his life.

Guo Shoujing's descendants also lost their traces in the war, and as for most of his works, most of them were lost, and some of the remaining manuscripts were too advanced for anyone to understand.

After Zhu Di saw the canal repaired by Guo Shoujing, he was very emotional, how could such a genius be born in the Great Yuan Dynasty? If he could be born a hundred years later and serve Daming, how good would it be?

Come to think of it, the melee at the end of the Yuan Dynasty has destroyed everything, and Zhu Di has no extravagant hopes at all.

But who would have thought that a descendant of Guo Shoujing would suddenly fall from the sky!

Zhu Di's excitement can be imagined!

No wonder he understands the method of refining the body, Guo Shoujing lived to be 86 years old, he is strong and healthy, can he not have two strokes? As for astronomical arithmetic, that is Guo's housekeeping ability!

"Master Daoyan, do you think this kid can be trusted?"

The old monk laughed, "Your Highness, believe it or not, what can you do?" The old man talked with him for an afternoon, and learned a lot. At a young age, he can be so proficient in arithmetic, except for the descendants of the Guo family, Lao Qu really can't think of any other possibility! ”

Dao Yan smiled very happily, he was proficient in Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and he also knew astronomy, but he couldn't compare with Guo Shoujing. The old monk cared about the "Calendar of Time", about astronomy, and had a deeper idea...... The emperor is respected as the Son of Heaven, who can be the emperor depends on the mandate of heaven, and when he becomes the emperor, he must also be in awe of the changes of the sky!

It can be said that the sacredness of imperial power is hung with the ethereal sky.

Over the past hundred years, the one who knows the most about "days" is Guo Shoujing!

If you know Guo's learning, you can control the Mandate of Heaven at will! You know, according to the "Chronological Calendar", you can calculate the day of the Tengu diet!

Dao Yan's interest in the descendants of the Guo family is far greater than that of Zhu Di!

If Liu Chun is here, I guarantee that the old monk will be faced!

Guo Shoujing's astronomy is to explore the truth, your old monk is good, and he actually uses it to engage in superstition about the Mandate of Heaven, which is simply the opposite of the opposite, insulting astronomy, and can make Guo Shoujing so angry that he crawls out of the coffin!

Dao Yan didn't care about this, after he arrived in Beiping, he only did one thing - constantly persuaded Zhu Di to take the heir!

"Lord Wang, if you descend to a genius today and assist Your Highness, it is enough to prove that Your Highness is the best candidate, and the old monk is ...... courageous."

"Shut up!"

Zhu Di's eyes were bloodshot and became very terrifying!

"Master Daoyan, you should be the sword of this king, can't you kill people?" Zhu Di's body leaned slightly, and he involuntarily clenched the hilt of the sword, as if he would draw his sword and kill in the next second, and blood would be splashed in five steps!

The old monk laughed indifferently, "If the prince wants to take the old man's stinky skin, he just needs to do it, but even if the old man dies, he will always remind His Highness in his dreams!" ”

Grandma's, is this the legendary ghost?

Zhu Di was really speechless.

With such a piece of persistent hob meat, he has no better way.

"Master, I Zhu Di and you have no grievances, why do you want to hurt me?"

Dao Yan Zhengse said: "The position of the Son of Heaven is resided by the virtuous, and His Royal Highness is the son of a saint, why can't he take it?" ”

Zhu Di smiled bitterly in his heart, "Master, I beg you, don't say it in the future, no one can change what my father decides." If the master insists on talking nonsense, Zhu Di will only be rude! ”

Originally, when he saw the heirs of the Guo family, Zhu Di was in a good mood, but as a result, Dao Yan was stirred, and he suddenly became happy...... To tell the truth, what prince has never dreamed of being an emperor!

The problem is that Zhu Yuanzhang is a stubborn old farmer, he regards the world as his own farmland, and punishing corrupt officials is as natural as pulling out weeds.

Even if he is a son, if he thinks about what he shouldn't think about and does what he shouldn't do, he will be treated as a "weed" by his father, Zhu Di doesn't think he has a good life for his eldest brother!

Monk Daoyan looked at Zhu Di's back, and the corners of his mouth turned up, "Your Highness, the old man has spent his whole life, and he will definitely assist His Highness to ascend the throne, and he will rest after death!" ”

The old monk touched the papyrus paper in his arms, and after a few days, he was going to consult Liu Chun, get more astronomical knowledge from this kid's mouth, and one day, he would convince Zhu Di!

Dao Yan pinned his hopes on Liu Chun, but he didn't know that Liu Chun was facing his father's interrogation at the moment!

Liu San sat across from him, sneering.

"You kid lied!"

Liu Chun bowed his head and said: "I did lie, but I didn't know if you were good or bad at the time, I couldn't tell you the truth, I apologize, I'm sorry!" ”

"Phew!"

Liu San smacked Liu Chun fiercely, "You little rabbit cub, don't lie to me, you are not a descendant of the Guo family!" Don't put gold on your face! ”

This time Liu Chun was really scared, he kept thinking about what identity he should arrange for himself. No one's ability came for no reason, he searched his stomach and found that Guo Shoujing's time was the closest, and because of the impact of the war, there was no way to verify, so he made up the identity of Guo's heir.

Sure enough, calm as King Yan and deceitful as Daoyan, all of them were deceived by him.

It's just the simple Liu San, how can he insist that he is a fake? It doesn't make sense, does it?

"Hahaha!" Liu San suddenly laughed, "Boy, you made it up very well, but who made you unlucky and met me!" Liu San probed and said to Liu Chun: "Let me tell you, I was the first to climb the city when I recovered the capital!" It's me who killed all the Guo family with my own hands! ”

"Huh? You killed them all? Liu Chun asked in surprise!

Liu San said calmly: "Their ancestors worked for the Tartars and enjoyed the glory and wealth, shouldn't they die?" ”

"The! Should! ”

What else can Liu Chun say, if he was also one of them back then, he might have killed him even more ruthlessly than Liu San, but Guo Shoujing's book was lost, which is too regrettable.

At this time, Liu San suddenly said: "I took out two wooden boxes from the Guo family back then, boy, do you want to take a look?" ”
