Chapter 414: Ash Picker: What do you do with it?
"Alright, it's over!"
Zhu Jie looked at Li Yan again and said, "Brother Li Yan, I originally wanted to hand over this matter to you, but now that so many gentlemen have arrived, there is no need, Brother Taichong, Gong Man, I will leave the matter to you!" ”
Huang Zongxi was stunned and said, "What does it take us to do?" When we arrived in Nanjing, we had to go to our respective posts immediately! ”
Zhu Jie said with a smile: "This matter has to be handled, it is none other than you, and it is definitely a blessing for you!" ”
"What's the luck?"
Zhu Jie replied, "Does Wenyuan Pavilion know? Please go to the Wenyuan Pavilion, in the Wenyuan Pavilion is placed the "Yongle Canon", which is mixed with a large number of information about the Western Ocean, and your task is to extract all the information of Zheng He's Western Ocean! ”
"Yongle Canon"?
Huang Zongxi and Fang Yizhi's eyes straightened immediately, not only the two of them, but even Gu Yanwu and Huang Zonghui in the back were also bright-eyed, Yongle Grand Canon, it took a lot of hard work from the predecessors to write successfully, and it took more than 20 years! There are so many valuable texts in it! Famous in the rivers and lakes
"Master Inspector, it's not fair, it's definitely not fair, why let Tai Chong go with Man Gong and not let me go?"
Gu Yanwu on the side shouted.
Huang Zonghui and Yang Tingshu also expressed extreme dissatisfaction, "No, absolutely not, we must go together!" This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! ”
For scholars, especially the famous Confucians, the Yongle Ceremony is definitely lethal enough, and it is extremely powerful.
Zhu Jie's face turned dark, and he waved his hand again and again: "I said, I let you go, not to see the Yongle Grand Ceremony, but to ask you to find out all the information about the Three Treasure Eunuchs going to the West for me, and you must find out!" Do you understand? These are truly priceless treasures, much more useful than those subsets of scriptures! ”
"Master Overseer,"
Yang Tingshu was dissatisfied: "I found a problem, it seems that you are very dissatisfied with Confucianism, very repulsive, these masters and Confucianism are not as good as a foreigner in your eyes, and the subset of classics and history is not as important as Zheng He's information in the West, you are a little bit of a waste of money......
Zhu Jie pursed his lips and replied: "Yes, I am just dissatisfied with Confucianism, especially after the Song Dynasty, I am even more scornful, what a thing!" If it is the knowledge of Confucius and Mencius, I am a little interested, but Zhu Xi, Cheng Yi and the like are counted, just a few sour talents, Confucian gatekeepers, where can it compare to the depth of Galileo's knowledge? ”
"Your Excellency!"
Yang Tingshu shouted: "Although we all respect you, but what is your intention to slander your predecessors like this? Tell me, why is Zhu Xi inferior to that Galileo? ”
Zhu Jie replied: "Brother Fu'an, what are you anxious about?" First, what other achievements did Zhu Xi have besides commenting on the Four Books and the Five Classics? It's just picking up people's teeth and wisdom, they are just frying the cold rice of the two saints of Confucius and Mencius, and it's especially fried! Look at that Galileo, and in the future you will understand what kind of new world this world has discovered; Second, righteous people first correct themselves, don't say anything else, this Zhu Xi, every day to teach others what three outlines and five constants, three from the four virtues, let me ask, this grandson, even his own daughter-in-law steals, picking up ashes, shameless, why should I respect him? Look at Galileo, in order to defend his truth, he was imprisoned for more than 20 years, how many people have this kind of spirit? ”
Yang Tingshu was completely dumbfounded, otherwise, he was easy to answer, but Zhu Xi's matter of picking up ashes can't be explained clearly in any case, it is a stain that Zhu Sage can't erase for 10,000 years, how to explain it? It's against the norm of heaven and earth, even beasts can't do such a thing!
"But, Master Overseer, tell me what this Galileo has accomplished, and at least convince us? Which canon did he rule? Which doctrine to attack? Is there a legacy of poetry? ”
Gu Yanwu asked.
Zhu Jie glanced at Tang Ruowang and said, "Mr. Tang, you come to answer what they have achieved in this Galileo!" ”
"Yes, Overseer!"
John Tong said in a deep voice: "First, Mr. Galileo has demonstrated the heliocentric theory, proving that the earth, that is, our world, revolves around the sun, and the sun is the center of the entire universe!" ”
What the?
Everyone present screamed, even Huang Zongxi and Fang Yizhi, who had always been erudite and talented, were a little dumbfounded, such a doctrine they had never heard of!
"Mr. Tang, you're talking in your sleep, right? Or is this Galileo talking in his dreams again? Are we revolving around the sun? How can it be? Ridiculous, ridiculous! ”
Fang Yizhi exclaimed.
"That is, the sun has always risen in the east and set in the west, obviously revolving around us, how can we revolve around the sun?"
Huang Zongxi echoed.
John Tong ignored the two men, and continued: "Second, Mr. Galileo has improved and designed a clock for us, and it is such a pocket watch, which is improved from Mr. Galileo's theory, and its accuracy is far higher than that of your country; Thirdly, he discovered the theory of acceleration, he discovered the theory of inertia, he invented the telescope, he made a magnifying glass, which is enough to magnify thirty-three times, for example, to look at a hair under a magnifying glass, and the hair is as thick as a finger! ”
"That's all?"
Fang Yizhi said dissatisfied: "Yes, but he is a learned person, but such a thing can be compared with Mr. Zhu Xi, I am also stoned to death, the study of things, Xiao Daoer, the art of governing the country of the Qi family, Fang is an upright scholar......"
"Brother Man, you're wrong!"
Zhu Jie shouted in a deep voice: "It's too wrong, it's wrong from the beginning, what deposes a hundred schools of thought, respects Confucianism, it's bullshit at all, any doctrine has its importance!" Without the gunpowder created by the science of things, I am afraid that the Ming Dynasty will be wiped out, and without artillery, we can stop the Manchurian Iron Cavalry? Without papermaking, how would our thousands of years of culture, poetry, and articles be disseminated? Without a compass, we are still cowering on this land, and we don't even know about the South Seas! Moral articles are important, but how can there be these kinds of learning, sooner or later, nearly 10,000,000 descendants of Yan and Huang will be eliminated by this world, and the Han people are proud of the two thousand by virtue of not Confucian moral articles, but the inventions and creations of those craftsmen and scholars, and iron-blooded heroes!! ”
The people present exclaimed,
