Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit delicate, Confucius smiled slightly.
"Mr. Zhao, if this question is too profound, we will discuss other issues for a while."
When my ancestors traveled east, they saw two children arguing about the sun. For such a big man as my ancestors, I was stumped by this problem.
No matter how powerful Mr. Zhao is, this question may not be answered.
Seeing that little look in his eyes, Zhao Mu smiled disdainfully in his heart and asked you, who do you look down on?
They can't answer this question, but it's a trivial matter for themselves.
"In fact, the position of the sun from the earth is the same whether it is morning or noon.
Why it is said that sometimes it is big and sometimes it is small, it is because of the difference caused by our naked eyes.
Why is it cold in the morning and hot at noon? That’s because the sun shines on our earth for longer and longer, which causes it to be hotter at noon.”
In order to prevent him from not understanding, Zhao Mu personally took out two eggs and gave the master an explanation.
After hearing what Zhao Mu said, Kong Xian laughed loudly.
"Oh hahahaha, that's it, that's it.
Mr. Zhao, my ancestors traveled east and met these two boys Bianri. This problem directly stumped my ancestors.
After that, none of us in the Kong family solved this problem.
Unexpectedly, it came to me and was answered by me.
I am very excited, hahahaha."
As he spoke, he laughed again.
"Mr. Zhao, let's talk somewhere else?"
This restaurant wanted to discuss academic issues, but after all it felt not very elegant. Several people left the restaurant and went to the study room this time.
We sat together and started chatting.
Various academic questions were asked again, and Zhao Mu answered them one by one.
Originally it didn't take an hour, but unexpectedly it took an entire afternoon.
"Mr. Zhao, all the questions I have accumulated over the years have been answered by Mr. Zhao.
I originally thought that these questions could only be left in books in my lifetime and passed down in the future, hoping that future generations could answer them.
Unexpectedly, my wish finally came true today.
There is no need for future generations to realize it, I have already realized it myself, please accept my worship."
"Confucius, we are all just learning from each other, there is no need to perform this great ceremony.
"Seeing how someone is so capable and yet so humble, it makes me excited.
"Mr. Zhao, I saw that you, Zhuangzi, have so many books, and the knowledge contained in each book, no matter it is a book, the knowledge contained in it is simply too much.
To be honest, I don’t want to leave anymore, I just want to enjoy traveling in this Zhuangzi.”
After Kong Xian finished speaking, Zhao Mu smiled awkwardly.
"Hahahaha, okay Mr. Zhao, I'm just joking with you.
Even if Mr. Zhao keeps me here, I probably won't have time.
After visiting you in Chang'an City today, I will go back in a while."
This kind of humility, as a host, you should also be humble!
"Confucius, there is no need for you to go back in such a hurry.
You can stay in my Zhuangzi for a while, and you can read as much as you like.
I’m done waiting, I’m tired of staying around, it’s still time to go back to Shandong!”
"If that's the case, then it will trouble Mr. Zhao!"
Zhao Mu??????
Normally speaking, I shouldn't say Mr. Zhao, please don't go to such trouble, I'm going back now.
How did this come to him and live here?
You're cheating me. You will definitely not be so humble next time. It's too scary.
"Since Mr. Zhao has said so, I would rather be respectful than obey your orders.
I was waiting in Chang'an for their students to finish taking the summer imperial examinations.
I am returning to Shandong. I was entertained by Mr. Zhao today. It is already getting late, so we will go back to Chang'an City first.
I like these books of Mr. Zhao very much. Could you please borrow them for me to read?
I will return to Chang'an City and arrange for someone to make an excerpt, and the original version will be sent back at that time."
"It's okay, Master, if you like it, just take it."
"Then thank you Mr. Zhao.
You guys, wait until I return to Shandong and then come to Mr. Zhao.
Give me a copy of all these books and send them to Shandong, so that these books can be passed on to the history of Qing Dynasty."
"yes, Sir.
Just brother, are you sure you also need the books on postpartum care for sows and other books?"
"Of course I need those. Although we may not be able to use them, my people in Shandong, maybe they can use them?
At that time, after you pull it over and study it carefully, you can give them some guidance."
"yes, Sir."
"Master, at noon today, why don't you just eat at my village?"
Kong Xian shook his head and said, "We won't trouble Mr. Zhao."
I will go back first and wait until I have the opportunity to come and visit again.
This time, I didn't delay. I took these books, put them in my clothes, saluted again, stood up and left.
"Master, us?"
"Didn't Master Yuan already say it?
Let's go, we have to prepare, check the weather, and use artificial rainfall."
"It's the young master!"
On the other side, Changsun Wuji drove his majesty in a carriage and hurried to Chang'an City.
After arriving at Chang'an City, they entered the palace and the Tai Chi Hall. Li Er's personal officer reported the news.
The personnel of Qintian Prison have come to the palace several times this morning, hoping to meet with the Holy One.
Just because His Majesty was not in the palace, he was directly stopped by me.
Li Er arranged for people to have people from the Qintian Prison come to the palace to see him.
After a while, Qin Tianjian and others came to Taiji Hall and saw His Majesty.
Several people saw His Majesty and told them about the celestial phenomena they observed.
There will be dark clouds passing by in the sky this afternoon, but the clouds show no sign of rain.
But now that the world has been experiencing severe drought for such a long time, it is not easy for clouds to pass by. The Qin Tian Jian and his party begged Your Majesty to pray for rain.
Praying for rain also has its own process.
It's not like what everyone thinks. Under the scorching sun, it is pure nonsense to think of praying for rain under the scorching sun, knowing that the weather is very sunny today.
It can't move the heavens at all, and it won't even rain at all.
Although the weather is sunny today, clouds will fill the sky in the afternoon, and it will be a good time to ask for rain.
As long as Your Majesty is dedicated to the people and sincerely prays for rain, God will surely be moved.
It started to rain heavily.
After Li Er listened, he thought for a moment.
Since he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he has never asked for rain.
Regarding praying for rain, there are many records among the people.
Local people will perform rituals to pray for rain.
Just about praying for rain, there have been many scams.
Those so-called people who pray for rain eat and drink together. After praying for rain, when it doesn't rain, they take their money and run away.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that there are some people who may be really capable and wish for rain if the sky is clear.
Of course, this kind of thing has never happened to me.
Changsun Wuji glanced at His Majesty and said softly!
"Your Majesty, this matter of praying for rain is no small matter!
"Nowadays, people in the world are in panic because of the drought.
If you just ask for rain in the court, your reputation will skyrocket for both the court and your majesty.
On the other hand, if you are unable to get what you want, and someone with ulterior motives interferes with it, they will say that this matter is yet another disaster brought about by His Majesty.
By then, this matter will really get serious, and by then, things will be a bit troublesome.
Just like this year's drought, Your Majesty asked the people to dig wells during the spring season. In the summer, didn't some people spread rumors?
In fact, everyone knows what these so-called rumors mean.
It’s just that I want to find a place to vent and let things out!
"Hahahaha, okay, in that case, let's go and prepare.
I want to pray for rain for my people in the Tang Dynasty."
"It's your Majesty. I'll go and make arrangements right away."
After the people from Qintian Prison left, Changsun Wuji raised his head and glanced at His Majesty.
"Your Majesty, are you asking for rain?"
Li Er understood what Changsun Wuji said.
Li Er waved his hand.
"Hey, auxiliary engine, don't panic, I have made my own decision about praying for rain this time.
Besides, Yuan Tiangang and my good brother have made things like this.
I don’t have to believe in others, so why don’t I still believe in my wise brother?”
"It's your Majesty, I'm taking orders!"
"By the way, according to my order, send people to spread this news throughout Chang'an City immediately.
Just say that I want to pray for rain for the people of the Tang Dynasty, and then we can let the people come together."
After Changsun Wuji heard this, he understood instantly, bowed, stood up and left.
After he left, Li Er whispered in his heart.
Dear brother, dear brother, now I, Old Li, have placed all my hopes on you.
Don't let me down this time, otherwise, my reputation may plummet.
Just like what his eldest son Wuji said before.
If you pray for this rain in front of the people all over the world, no matter how big or small, your reputation will increase dramatically.
If you can't get it, people all over the world will be watching, and your reputation will be severely damaged.
I took a look at the sky and saw that the sun was shining fiercely in the sky.
You shouldn't be cheated, right?
Praying for rain should be successful, right?
But why did he start to mutter in his heart again? This chapter has been completed!
