Volume 2 Flowers follow the willows, the clouds are light and the wind is light! Chapter 2 Writing a book is a dead end!!
"I heard that Shen Mengxi's wife Zhang is arrogant and fierce, and I am really fortunate to see it today. Wang Zhi didn't know where to take out a handful of candied fruit, and said with great emotion while sharing it with Tang Ning.
Tang Ning was greatly surprised, grabbed one and put it in his mouth, but the sweet tooth was about to fall out. After taking several sips in a row, he gloated with Wang Zhi at Shen Kuo, who was grabbed by the collar and beaten by a woman in green clothes.
Shen Kuo is not only a person in the history of China, but also in the history of the whole world.
The book is a brilliant masterpiece in the history of world science, with a total of 609 articles, covering astronomy, calendar, meteorology, geology, geography, physics, chemistry, biology, agriculture, water conservancy, architecture, medicine, history, literature, art, personnel, military, law and many other fields.
Of these entries, the humanities such as anthropology, archaeology, linguistics, music, etc., account for about 18% of the total entries.
In the natural sciences, about 36 per cent of the total is in the natural sciences, and the rest are in personnel information, military, law, and miscellaneous anecdotes, which account for about 46 per cent of the book.
It can be said that Shen Kuo wrote all the inventions he could find and the things he could record in the land of China into this "Dream Creek Writings".
Shen Kuo is one of the greatest scientists in Chinese history, a scientific superstar who shines in the long river of history, but he is a despicable and shameless villain......
The capable official who governs the world, the villain who slanders, it is very appropriate to use this sentence to summarize Shen Kuo's character and skills.
In order to seek the throne, Wang Anshi used false compliments to blind Wang Anshi, who presided over the law change, and this matter was far less influential than the Wutai poetry case.
In the sixth year of Xining (1073), Shen Kuo was ordered to inspect the farmland and water conservancy of the two Zhejiang, and Su Shi was appointed as the general judge of Hangzhou. Shen Kuo went to Hangzhou, talked about old feelings with Su Shi, and copied a copy of his new work. After returning to Beijing, Shen Kuo handed over the detailed "annotations" of the poems that he thought were slanderous to the emperor in the form of a note, exposing Su Shi's poems for "fooling the court" and "having no righteousness of monarchs and ministers".
In the second year of Yuanfeng (1079), He Zhengchen and Li Ding, the imperial historian, impeached Su Shi, and the Wutai poetry case broke out. The following year, Su Shi was demoted to Huangzhou, implicating more than 30 relatives and friends, involving more than 100 poems.
It's hard to have any respect for such a person. Even though he has a very high status in Tang Ning's heart, when he really saw him, put the Wutai poetry case and "Dream Creek Writings" together, Tang Ning was annoyed to find that he didn't have the same excitement as fans when they saw stars.
"Write a book! Write a book! Just know how to write a book! Can you make money writing books? Can you write a book to support a family? You're really a wreck, you're not a good official, and you can't even manage your home, I'm sorry! My mother was really blind and married you!
Write a book! Write you big-headed ghost! Writing a book is a dead end, you go to die! ”
A pile of paper thrown out by Zhang flew in the air, and an inkstone was thrown out and smashed on Shen Kuo's stomach. The brush that fell from the sky immediately afterwards also left a mark on Shen Kuo's face.
Wang Zhi and Tang Ning grinned, but in the end, Tang Ning was a little reluctant to go, and couldn't bear to see Shen Kuo lying on the ground so sadly, and whispered to Wang Zhi: "Shall we go over and help, he is too pitiful." ”
Wang Zhi sneered and said: "Poor people must have something to hate, he claimed to be close friends with Su Longtu back then, but as soon as Su Longtu gave him a poem, he used this poem as a ladder to the sky.
Such a person is not worthy of pity, and the more you pity him, the less he will hesitate when he pulls a knife in your back. Although I, Wang Zhi, am only a small lieutenant, I can see it so clearly because I am a small lieutenant.
If you want to avoid being looked down upon, it's best not to have anything to do with him. This guy is now a rat crossing the street, and everyone shouts and beats him. If you get involved with him, it's not easy to get out for a while. ”
Hearing Wang Zhi arrange Shen Kuo like this, Tang Ning was very unhappy in his heart. Although what they said was right, Tang Ning still sneered: "You are a little lieutenant, you can see it so clearly, why do you want to build such a house here?" ”
"The wind and water here are beautiful, what's wrong with me building a house? Who did it hurt? Wang Zhi stalked his neck and said it was straightforward.
Too lazy to expose the ugly face of this guy who wanted to cling to the powerful, Tang Ning didn't care about Wang Zhi's yelling behind him, and trotted all the way to Shen Kuo's side.
It was only when I got close that I could see the face of this giant star that would shine on Earth for a thousand years.
His cheekbones are prominent, his eyes are small, his upper lip is like a round comb, and his lower jaw is a finger and a half long goatee. Slightly chubby cheeks, not too thick, but very thick eyebrows, how do you look like an amiable ...... Old man.
Yes, his beard is half white and half black, and he has a lot of wrinkles on his face, and he looks very old.
Although Tang Ning knew that Shen Kuo was only fifty-nine years old this year, in the future life, he would still be able to dance square dances and flirt with other aunts, and he should not be at the age of retirement......
"Thank you for this little friend......" Shen Kuo was very grateful to Tang Ning who helped him up.
Then he crouched down and silently picked up the papers scattered on the ground.
Wang Zhi looked at Tang Ning, who was picking up paper with Shen Kuo, sighed, and stomped his feet and left.
Another little guy who should have a great future, just ruined.
"You shouldn't have helped the old man." Shen Kuo suddenly said to Tang Ning: "It is the best choice for you to stand behind and stand by with Vice General Wang at the beginning. ”
Tang Ning grinned, revealing a mouth full of small white teeth and smiled: "Anyway, I'm not going to be an official, what's the matter?" Moreover, I have admired you for a long time, Mr. Mengxi. ”
Shen Kuo looked at Tang Ning like a ghost and said, "People in the world are afraid to avoid the old man, you are so strange in your future life." ”
"Not strange, not strange. People in the world are short-sighted and often can only see what is happening around them. Even if it is a long term, you can only see a hundred years behind you.
I'm different, I like to see how things will affect a thousand years from now. ”
Tang Ning closed his mouth after speaking, he felt that he was already a little incoherent.
Shen Kuo smiled and said: "It seems that you are the young hero in the mouth of the imperial city's official affairs, and when I saw it today, it was really extraordinary." It's just a pity that the official affairs of the imperial city are kind......"
Tang Ning hates Liu Ling extremely now, even if this guy doesn't appear in front of him, his influence will spread to the ends of the earth like a spider web.
And this feeling is as if he is his own babysitter, and he is a baby who must be in his care and arms to thrive.
"What did he tell you?" Tang Ning asked through gritted teeth.
"He said that you want the old man to stay away from you, and don't affect your future career because of the old man. But now it seems that there is no way, since my family moved here last year, Vice General Wang, who was supposed to live in this house, brought here to see the house, I don't know how many, you are the first to see the three words of Mengxi Garden and run away without turning your head......"
"I'm not going to be an official at all!"
"You're young, don't say that. In the days to come, a lot of things will happen, even if that's not what you intended. After Shen Kuo finished saying this sentence very sadly, he took the paper in Tang Ning's hand, picked up the inkstone from the ground, picked up the brush and walked in the direction of the door.
Shen Kuo's words were very harsh, and Tang Ning stared at the pitiful Shen Kuo who knocked on the door. He was about to wait for the door to open for a while, and when Zhang's loving punch hit Shen Kuo's eye socket, he laughed heartily.
The door opened, and Tang Ning's mood was inexplicably excited.
Then his eyes were about to pop out.
After the tearful Zhang opened the door, he hugged Shen Kuo, and then kept sobbing: "Husband...... I'm sorry...... Husband......"
Shen Kuo gently patted Zhang's back and smiled and comforted: "It's okay, it's okay, my husband is fine, don't you see my husband I'm okay now?" ”
What's going on? Downing cupped his chin and let it return to its place, his face full of incredulity.
What's going on? What about domestic violence? Isn't Zhang a shaker?
This is not what I imagined!
Looking back, Wang Zhi was gone, and the coachman fell asleep leaning on the carriage.
Tang Ning blinked, he seemed to remember something about Shen Kuo......
Zhang died of a violent illness, and his friends congratulated Shen Kuo and congratulated him on getting rid of Zhang's torture. At this time, Shen Kuo was in a trance all day long, his spirit was on the verge of collapse, and he once crossed the Yangtze River by boat, but he wanted to throw himself into the water, but fortunately he was stopped by others. Soon after, Shen Kuo also passed away due to illness......
