Chapter 544: Above the Moon

"Your Highness. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Walking through the Bowen Academy, the students who came and went kept saluting Xiao Ming, and Xiao Ming couldn't stop returning the salute all the way.

With the increase in the number of students in the college, he no longer cares about this problem, because with the increase in the number of students, the competition between students is getting bigger and bigger.

This is not because Xiao Ming is cruel, but because all the students of Bowen College are free of charge and have a basic salary every month, so it can be said that he is supporting these students, so unlike modern colleges, he does not raise waste.

If the most basic assessment can't pass, they are no longer eligible to enjoy these benefits, after all, his assessment is only a test paper of the current year's level, as long as you can answer seventy percent of the questions correctly, you will pass the assessment, and there is a practical assessment in addition to the traditional written test.

For example, students in the School of Chemistry and the School of Physics are required to be able to complete some experiments independently and to test their hands-on ability to apply what they have learned.

In the assessment in the first half of the year, Bowen College eliminated more than 30 students who did not learn and did not know how to learn, and this seriously stimulated other students.

Under the protection of the guards, Xiao Ming went directly to the academy of the Academy of Astronomy, these students were all summoned by Xiao Ming from the people, and after passing the basic assessment and proving that they had some simple understanding of the stars, they officially became the students of the Bowen Academy.

"The grass people participate in His Highness."

There were only seven people in the school, and all seven of them were the same age, ranging from sixteen to sixty.

However, he didn't care about age, his purpose was to tear the veil of feudal superstition, as long as they could help him establish a basic scientific understanding among the people.

"No courtesy." Xiao Ming smiled.

This time he came in the evening, and it was naturally not unintentional to choose this time, because it was about to be the middle of the month, which was the time when the moon was the roundest, the largest, and the easiest to be observed by astronomical telescopes.

If he wants to break the feudal ignorance of the people, he must first break the ignorance in the hearts of these seven people, because these seven people's understanding of the starry sky is only from books such as divination, and they are very familiar with things such as calamity and evil stars.

Among these seven people, the old man is the most eloquent, this person's name is Yan Zhengyi, he used to be just a gentleman who set up a stall on the streets of Qingzhou, and later learned in the newspaper that Xiao Ming needed someone who knew the stars, so he volunteered to come, hoping to be a staff member in the palace of King Qi.

Because of the idea of divine authority of kings, generally speaking, there are some people who are proficient in astrology around both vassal kings and magnates, and before the war, these people will also be asked to deduce astrological signs to measure the good fortune.

"Didn't Your Highness leave us so that I can wait for Your Highness to deduce the good fortune for Your Highness tonight?" Yan Zhengyi's face smiled and folded, he was already sixty-five this year, and when Xiao Ming chose him, he suddenly exclaimed that he was Jiang Taigong who met King Wen of Zhou, which made Xiao Ming laugh.

Without waiting for Xiao Ming to speak, Yan Zheng raised his eyes and looked at the sky that had gradually darkened, at this time a full moon had risen from the east, he stuck to Hu Xu and said: "Your Highness ordered that the main star of the palace is Ziwei Star, and this Ziwei Star is the emperor star, which shows that His Highness is the face of the emperor, after the Chang'an Rebellion, Ziwei Star became brighter and brighter and even obscured the stars, which shows that His Highness is the hero of the world, and the future is limitless." ”

"Hahaha......" I have to say that Yan Zhengyi said that Xiao Ming was very comfortable, but he was from a different time and space, Yan Zhengyi definitely couldn't see it.

The purple microstar in Yan Zheng's mouth, also known as the North Star, is the main star of the constellation Ursa Minor, and the Big Dipper revolves around it in all seasons.

If the sky is compared to a funnel, then Zi Weixing is the top of this funnel. This kind of Ziwei star, which is surrounded by stars, has been compared to Ziwei's mortal life.

According to the range of the stars, born in the family is the head of the family, and born in the country is the king of the country, Yan Zhengyi is using this method to fool him.

Seeing that Xiao Ming was so happy, Yan Zhengyi also echoed and laughed, in his opinion, his words were right.

However, when the two of them were laughing, one of the young men said disdainfully: "Your Highness, this Ziweixing is just a star, in fact, it has nothing to do with fate, just as Chen Sheng and Wu Guang said, the prince will have a kind of Xiangning, there are not a few people in this past dynasties who claim to be destined for Ziwei, but those who can become the masters of the world are all eloquent and strategic." ”

"Huang Yanqing, what nonsense are you talking about!" Yan Zhengyi's face changed suddenly, "This is something handed down by your ancestors, and you dare to slander it." ”

Xiao Ming put away his smile, he looked at the chubby young man and said, "This astrological theory is the study of the emperor, why are you so accusatory?" ”

"Because His Highness is not looking for us for astrology, but for astrology, and His Highness's Bowen College is also famous for its peculiar knowledge, if His Highness needs celebrities, why should he look for it among the people, there are people who are proficient in astrology in this world." Huang Yanqing said slowly.

Hearing this, Xiao Ming nodded, this Huang Yanqing is a smart person, and what he said just now also proves that he does not agree with Yan Zhengyi's position as a god.

"Well, you're right, this king didn't come to you for astrology, but to let you really understand what the stars in the sky are?" Xiao Ming said lightly.

Yan Zhengyi's face changed, this liar is the same, every liar knows that he is telling a lie, but he wants others to believe it, this Yan Zhengyi has only read two photo books, and he doesn't believe what he says.

Now that Xiao Ming said bluntly, he suddenly laughed, this is not to say, not to say it.

Glancing at Yan Zhengyi, who was restrained, Xiao Ming looked at the rising moon again, and then Xiao Ming said to the seven people: "You come with me." ”

Then he led the seven people to the outside of the academy, and by this time Zhao Long and Zhao Hu had already pointed his astronomical telescope at the moon.

Seeing the telescope, the seven of them all showed puzzled expressions, and then Xiao Ming stepped forward to adjust the telescope and said to Huang Yanqing: "Come and see what the moon looks like in your eyes?" ”

Huang Yanqing was down-to-earth and generous, not restrained at all, he walked over, looked at it according to the method Xiao Ming said, and suddenly said: "How is this similar to a pockmarked face, is this the moon?" ”

"That's right, this is the moon in the sky." Xiao Ming said with a smile.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Ming told the seven people the basic knowledge of the moon, the earth, and the solar system.

"Okay, this is what the king wants to tell you, if you can accept it, stay, if you can't accept it, you can leave on your own, this king will not make things difficult for you."
