Chapter 228.
“Enough!”
Zhu bellowed at this point.
All at once, Churchford was like a deflated ball of leather.
Zhang Anshi then stepped forward to comfort him, “Uncle Shi, it will be fine, what kind of person am I, don’t you know?”
Qufu looked at him with a depressed face and said, “It’s just that I know what the fuck you are, that’s why I’m worried.”
Zhang Anshi: “……”
Some people are like that, how you cover his feet with your warm heart, his feet remain still cold.
Prejudice is like a big mountain that you can’t avoid.
There are some things you can stick with to the end, and some things ……
Zhang Anshi decided not to give a damn.
Qiu Fu knew that making more noise would not help, so he hid to the side and secretly went to be sad.
But at this time, Zhu Di and Zhu Neng and Xu Huizu, and even the many marquis and uncle lords, all gathered around with great interest.
No one pays attention to Qufu, after all, taking a step back, Qufu just died a son, but the …… one that Daming got is a big killing weapon ah.
The power of that flying ball, and of the bomb, cannot be estimated at this time.
But to the naked eye, this thing is powerful.
Thus, this Marquis affectionately touched Zhang Anshi’s head, as if how he had taken care of Zhang Anshi, a late-born junior, in his normal life.
That one was happy towards Zhang Anshi, and this wave of intimacy taught Zhang Anshi to sweat.
Zhu Di was even more excited for a good half a minute, unable to speak, a pair of eyes wide open, staring at Zhang Anshi.
After a while of slowing down, he said, “This flying up, what on earth is it?”
“Hot air balloon.” Zhang Anshi said directly.
“How can you fly?” Zhu’s heart was thrilled, but he acted exceptionally calm.
Zhang Anshi admired Zhu’s character, the more agitated he was, the calmer he was especially.
On the contrary, the calmer he is, the more he can do anything.
Zhang Anshi suspected that when he ran around naked and ate x in Beiping, Zhu Di, such an actuary, must have done the act in an extremely calm manner.
What do you mean by pattern, this is it.
At this time, Zhang Anshi said patiently, “Rely on the heat! Has Your Majesty noticed that if you take a piece of light paper and place it on a pot of fire, he will not fall down immediately, but will float up.”
Zhu Di looked back at the civil officials and military generals, and his eyes seemed to say, “Is that so?
Of course, no one observes such a phenomenon; everyone is a ‘pattern’ person, and people with patterns don’t care about minutiae.
Zhang Anshi continued, “What if the heat is even greater? And what about this hot air, rising continuously into a sealed air bag? In fact, the principle of the flying ball is very simple, and the opening chapter of my engineering class at the government school academy taught the principle of various forces.”
Chu’s eyes were filled with shock.
Simple?
Get in the motherfucker.
Why do I feel like I’m reading a book from heaven?
Zhang Anshi continued to explain, “Knowing the principle, then what is involved, is the issue of engineering. How to increase heat and refine a more efficient fuel, this involves alchemy. What materials can be used to make the airbag airtight, this is a matter of engineering. In addition, how much weight to carry, is also a problem, in short, this is the use of engineering, mechanics, alchemy, and even arithmetic, the result of cooperation, will be these together, the sky to hide, are possible.”
Zhu’s eyes were filled with horror.
The Lords listened to it as if they didn’t understand it, but it didn’t matter, they were interested in it, and at this point they were all straining their ears and washing their hands of it.
After all, the future to go to war and kill are them, and their children and grandchildren, more like this artifact, themselves and their children and grandchildren will have a heavy protection, this is not a joke, after all, the enemy on the battlefield, do not listen to you what reasoning. Win is to win, lose is to lose, win a great merit, lose is the stench of ten thousand years, hard to escape a death.
But the minds of the civil ministers were different.
As soon as they heard Zhang Anshi talk about the official school academy, many of them immediately changed color.
Some people secretly looked up, any of them saw the fervor on Zhu’s face, this fervor that was deliberately suppressed, how fiery it was, as if there was a blazing fire inside his majesty.
On the contrary, Xie Jin said at this time: “My Ming has this skilled craftsman, Your Majesty, this is Lu Ban in the world ah.”
At these words, the hearts of many civil ministers silently sighed in relief.
I have to say, Xie Jin is indeed a great talent, smart to the extreme.
At this point, it is no longer possible to deny Zhang Anshi, after all, everyone is not blind.
But the phrase “reincarnated Lupin” looks like a compliment, but in fact, it instantly pulls down the pattern of this hot air balloon.
Anymore, it’s just smithing, which, as good as it is, is something that smiths do, not considered learning.
Zhang Anshi just glanced at the understanding of Jinyin, then smiled and said: “No, this is not just skilled craftsmen so simple, this is a university. Just like this heat, where it comes from, how to utilize, everything under the sky, how to understand them, so as to master their use. And …… why the gunpowder will blow up, where the power of gunpowder comes from, why there is water, and where the fire comes from ……”
Zhang Anshi uttered countless questions one after another.
And these doubts directly made Xie Jin and the others confused and unable to resist.
Zhang Anshi continued: “The so-called natural reason, is so, in Confucianism, also said that the material knowledge, do not understand things, how can grow their own knowledge? Only after understanding the reason of nature, can all things in the world, for my use, to create the destruction of the heavens and the earth, or tools to benefit the people. Could it be that …… this discipline of learning is not big enough?”
Xie Jin: “……”
Xie Jin s eloquence is very good, but …… he can t help but be unable to fight at this time.
It was because what Zhang Anshi said was not the same path as him at all.
Zhu Di, however, listened attentively, he raised his head, looked at the things in the world that he saw in front of him, and couldn’t help but say, “What do you mean, everything in this world, has a mystery?”
Zhang Anshi said firmly, “Yes.”
Zhu added, “Understand the laws of all things so that you can draw on them to, for example, build something like a hot air balloon?”
“Your majesty is wise, a little goes a long way.” Zhang Anshi smiled, only he left half of his words unsaid, that is, ‘unlike some people’.
Zhu Di couldn’t help but say with emotion, “If that’s the case, then this discipline of learning is truly vast and profound.”
For some people, this may be just smithing, but at this point, Zhu directly qualify, this is a discipline.
Zhu Di is not stupid, after all, he did not rely on the four books and five sutras to fight the world.
According to the Four Books and Five Classics, he, Zhu Di, is the son of a rebellious vassal.
Zhu thought of another thing at this time and turned to say, “What about the explosives?”
Zhang Anshi spoke eloquently, “The structure of explosives is even simpler, but it is just a matter of power enhancement. There are two ways to increase the power, one is to refine a higher purity, the other is even simpler, increase the amount of medicine. And increase the amount of medicine, although simple, but there is a big problem, that is, can not be projected. Ultimately …… only have can hot air balloon.”
“Your Majesty, much of learning begins with ideas, and then centers around those ideas to find theoretical foundations, and with theoretical foundations, then centers around those, and continually refines them, while conducting experiments over and over again.”
Zhang Anshi paused, then said, “the official school academy, to learn, is this kind of method, learn this natural reason, play their imagination, and then try on the ground, as for this learning is profound or not, is the next nine streams also, in fact, are not important, the important thing is that it is through these, to solve practical problems.”
Zhu Di looked around, then saw Zhu Neng several, is already full of red face, a small chicken pecked rice like nodding his head.
Although they didn’t understand, but they are really ah, say right right right is.
Even Qufu could not help but come up, he listened with fascination, although his son’s life and death is uncertain, but after all, he is the commander in chief who holds the life and death of thousands of people, this is something that he still cares about.
Zhu unconsciously murmured, “The Reason of Nature …… The Reason of Nature ……”
He couldn’t help but carry his hands behind his back and ferry a few steps back and forth, saying, “This is the art of the immortals, I never thought of it, and I thought that even if it was an immortal, it would be nothing more than that.”
Said, Zhu Di and more excitedly said: “This Zhuangzi, originally to take the lives of thousands of elite soldiers. To spend countless grain and grass, but this is only a day ah, a day and night of the world, the sky turned, the world has such a divine weapon, any one can exceed the achievements of Tang Taizong.”
Zhu Di said more and more excited, full of red light said: “Now think, I and Qiu Fu, Xu Hui Zu a few, have been old, the Yangtze River waves push the front waves, we were showing off that point of martial arts, and what can be counted? But it is in vain to stay a laughingstock, the future …… still have to look at the young people, look at you young people!”
Zhang Anshi took the opportunity to say, “Your Majesty, it is up to these young people in the official school academy to see if they can take this science of nature and carry it forward, so that my Great Ming can enjoy peace for all time.”
“Peace for all ages.” Zhu Di recited these four words with a thought.
These words, in fact, Zhu Di has long heard the ears are cocooned.
But who is not clear? This is just a falsehood, not to mention the ten thousand generations, even if it is three hundred years of rivers and mountains, this dynasty, but also a phoenix, can be said to be few and far between.
It is actually the norm for the second to die, the third to die, or even a hundred years of statehood.
To be honest, with Zhu Di s insights, Zhang Anshi if he told him that Daming has three hundred years of rivers and mountains, only to grin, three hundred years …… can be compared with Han and Tang, no loss.
Zhu Di laughed, “Very good, very good! This official school academy, will be of great use. There is also this hot air balloon, all the people involved in supervising and manufacturing, should be rewarded, the palace gives reward.”
He looked at Zhang Anshi, in his eyes is obvious appreciation, said: “you this official school academy chief instructor, is I rule the official school academy of the right arm and left arm, pass the decree, the official school academy chief instructor included in the martial arts ministers, for the from the fourth rank, the rest of the school officials, according to this set the official title.”
Zhu Di said, his eyes looking towards Xie Jin.
When Xie Jin heard this, his heart went cold.
Zhang Anshi’s additional Chief Instructor from the fourth rank was actually nothing.
After all, he Zhang Anshi is a Shihou, even if there is one more part-time job, it is actually not too useful to Zhang Anshi.
But the problem is …… that this chief instructor, the official position is equivalent to the official position of the State Prince Supervision priest ah.
This is tantamount to the government school academy, with reference to the structure of the State Children’s Elementary School, to establish a whole set of learning institutions out.
It also means that many of the teachers and instructors in this official school will have to follow Zhang Anshi, the Chief Instructor of the Fourth Grade, to determine their official rank.
What does rank mean?
Means, in the future, this government school academy will be even more hot.
It also means that the court officially recognized the status of the government school academies to recruit talents.
Status …… is what matters.
Scholars, peasants, industrialists and businessmen, the reason why the scholars became people, apart from the fact that they themselves had mastered the social resources, the most important thing was that their status was quite a bit higher than that of the rest of the multitude of people.
That’s why there are countless people, studying hard just to change their origins.
As for those who teach …… now even overnight, there is an official body, I am afraid that they can t think of it in any case.
Having this status also means that they can raise their eyebrows in the academy, with the status of a teacher, even outside the academy.
Xie Jin did not respond, acting as if he had heard a mistake.
This is of course because Xie Jin’s heart is extremely reluctant.
But in fact, Xie Jin played a slippery trick, he deliberately showed silence, in fact, is waiting, waiting for people who have the guts, jumped out for opposition.
Finally, someone else who lives up to his expectations ……
“Your Majesty ……” someone yelled.
At this time, Wu Xing suffered a blow, is already in tears, he said with pathos: “Your Majesty, ah, can not ah …… Throughout the dynasties, there is no miscellaneous studies …… as the right science ah … …”
He was really not holding back.
In pinpointing the time to break the manor at noon, Wu Xing s face was already not right, and now …… His Majesty even opened this golden mouth.
What’s wrong with that?
This is really digging into the roots.
Zhu Di looked at Wu Xing and paused before saying with a suspicious face, “Who is this person?”
Wu Xing: “……”
This Wu Xing is at least an imperial historian, his face is still very thick, he just wanted to throw his voice to answer.
Zhang Anshi, however, had already said; “Your Majesty, this man is Zhang Xing.”
“Zhang Xing?” Zhu Di revealed an odd color and frowned, “And who is Zhang Xing?”
Zhang Anshi instantly understood what was going on, so he busily said, “Yes, I am also confused, who is this Zhang Xing?”
“Your Majesty …… Chen Nai ……” Wu Xing was anxious, hearing the word Zhang, a mouthful of his old blood almost spewed out.
This is no less than Zhu Di and Zhang Anshi joining hands together to dig up his ancestral grave.
Zhang Anshi, however, immediately said, “Your Majesty, I have thought about it, and it seems that in the dynasty, there really isn’t such a person, but there is an Anxiang Bo, also named Zhang Xing.”
“Here it is, here it is ……”
Just at this moment, among the honored ministers, someone drilled out, but it was that serious Anxiangbo Zhang Xing.
This Zhang Xing, formerly was Yanshan left guard command commander commander, because of the war, made a merit, sealed a count.
However, among the meritorious officials, he ranked very low, and Zhu Di did not think much of him.
Now that he was suddenly mentioned and could show his face in front of His Majesty, where did Zhang Xing hesitate, “Your Majesty, Zhang Xing of the original Yanshan Guard is here.”
Zhu Di gave Zhang Xing a disgusted look, his eyes roughly saying, what are you doing here to make a scene!
Zhang Xing made a fool of himself.
Zhu Di said, “This Zhang Xing, not his Zhang Xing, Zhang Qingjia …… since he is not Anxiang Bur, then who is this person?”
Zhang Anshi said, “I’ve never heard of him, and I don’t know how he got mixed up.”
At this instant, Yiluoha was stunned, and immediately bowed down and said, “Ten thousand deaths for the slave girl, ten thousand deaths for the poor arrangement.”
Zhu Di didn’t look at Yiluoha, but said, “Since he is an idle person, this person shouldn’t be at my side, let alone making a big speech here.”
Wu Xing had already felt that this word Xing was already the greatest insult to him.
But where did it occur to me that Zhu Di and Zhang Anshi could be bad.
He endured the hard feelings and hastened to defend himself, “I am a member of the Metropolitan Police …….”
Zhu Di but all of a sudden pulled a black face, snapped: “the metropolitan police, why call Zhang Xing’s people, I only know a Wu Xing.”
“I am ……”
Zhu Di then said, “To impersonate a court official is a capital offense. Xie Jin ……”
Xie Jin trembling, said: “I am.”
Zhu Di sank his face and said, “I come to ask you, in the directory of the hundred officials, can there be a person named Zhang Xing?”
What can Xie Jin say, but also can only say, “Your Majesty, only Wu Xing ……”
Zhu Di then said, “There is no Zhang Xing, but this person claimed to be a person from the Metropolitan Police Force, posing as an official of the court, what is this crime?”
The words chilled the civil ministers.
But think carefully, it is really so, Wu Xing became Zhang Xing, then …… the Ministry of mandarins in the directory of the hundred officials, there is no this Zhang Xing, in accordance with the provisions of the law of etiquette, you have to first prove yourself that this Zhang Xing is Wu Xing.
But in fact, first to prove that they are Wu Xing, on the surface is very simple, the actual situation is full of is not such a thing, other people pointed out does not count, even if you take your family tree out, in fact, is not any effect.
You’ve got to have yellow books, you’ve got to have a bondsman, you’ve got to have a lot of paperwork.
But Wu Xing did not have any previous preparation at all, where to find so many documents?
Zhu Di bellowed in a stern voice: “Come on, drag this Zhang Xing out to me, I think he is stupid, will not be held accountable. But if next time, he dares to pretend to be a subject of my Ming, he will be killed without mercy.”
When Wu Xing heard this, he was a bit tense, and he looked at Zhu in dismay.
And then, he looked at Xie Jin and the others with a prayerful gaze.
Xie Jin immediately averted his gaze.
People praise your courage because you say what people are afraid to say.
But …… why are people afraid to talk about it?
Since people were afraid to say it in the first place.
Then there must be a reason for him.
For example, …… is afraid of death.
It can’t be that, at first, they conceded defeat, but now they suddenly don’t want to die for you.
Besides, it’s really hard to say who wants you to say you want to be called Zhang Xing.
Now the fruit says Zhang Xing.
By the way, it is true that there is no one called Zhang Xing’s Ducha imperial historian in Ming, as long as the emperor bites the bullet and there is no such person, what can you say?
To fight can also be, to prove it, but today …… His Majesty and the honored ministers are now in the same position, the big guys, it is clear that they are going to support the government school academy.
At this point, isn’t that going to be egg on your face?
This Wu Xing was a bit confused, looking at each and every person who was once eager to him, but now they all look at him coldly, so he cried out; “Your Majesty, you can’t, Your Majesty can’t do this ah ……”
Zhu Di’s anger intensified and he scolded, “Where did this unruly people come from, daring to impinge on the imperial chariot.”
The forbidden guards had no more hesitation and directly took off this Wu Xing’s crown, dragged it and left.
No matter how much Wu Xing struggled and shouted, it was to no avail.
The world …… is finally clearing up.
Zhang Anshi sighed.
Zhu glanced at him, “What are you sighing for?”
Zhang Anshi busily said, “I was thinking that the man in the party was like Wu Xing, the imperial inspector.”
“Is it really similar?” Zhu Di nodded, “I also look like it, but it’s a pity that one Wu Xing and one Zhang Xing don’t even have the same ancestor. This Zhang Xing is just a fanatic. And unlike Secretary Wu, Secretary Wu is a minister of justice.”
“Yes, yes.” Zhu Neng and Qiu Fu, as well as that Anxiang Bo Zhang Xing, all nodded their heads as they followed in a chicken-pecking manner.
Zhu glared at them, “It’s a bird, don’t know anything, just know to say yes.”
Zhu Neng and others grinned, they are shrewd, after this hot air balloon, it refers to the official school academy, in the end, does not refer to Zhang Anshi this guy?
Just for this hot air balloon, even if Zhang Anshi said His Majesty eats shit, they’d have to say yes.
Not long afterward, there came a flying horse.
Someone shouted, “Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Zhuangzi has been captured by the Model Battalion.”
Zhang Anshi eagerly stepped forward and nervously said; “What are the casualties of the Model Battalion?”
“Only one person was hurt.”
Zhang Anshi finally let out a long sigh of relief after hearing this.
Zhu Di rejoiced, “Good, one day and night to destroy the enemy, the model battalion is worthy of the model. All the ministers, with me to climb the mountain, to see how that Zhuangzi.”
In the manor, there is a great deal of treasure, and most importantly, Zhu is extremely interested in seeing how the casualties will be when a bomb like that goes down.
With a hot air balloon, it means that the amount of gunpowder can be greatly increased, and the effect of the greatly increased how, Zhu has not seen it! This world, or have to see it to be good.
Chu Neng, a few, also followed one by one with great interest.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the power of gunpowder, and only after seeing the power of that gunpowder, in the future, when the five military governors make plans, the governors will be able to skyrocket and make more battle plans.
Just Xie Jin and others, but a little do not want to follow the mountain to go, in their view, more like to see Zhang Anshi flaunt.
But at this time, His Majesty had an order, and all the people had to follow the car, so the group hiked up the mountain in different moods.
Zhu Di and the others walked in a hurry, while the civil ministers walked slowly, one before they reached the halfway point, they were already out of breath, and one of them had a sore back.
As a last resort, some people had to take a halfway break.
On the contrary, Yang Rong and Hu Guang two people, although can not keep up with the pace of Zhu Di and others, but after all, is still young, Yang Rong and Fujian people, physical fitness is good, but also will be the other civil ministers left behind.
Seeing that there were not many people around, Hu Guang leaned close to Yang Rong and whispered, “Lord Yang, the power of this gunpowder, and this hot air balloon, is just too scary.”
“Scary is not only that.” Yang Rong said with a certain tone: “Think about it, climb high and look far, with this, in the future to be used as a scout, the movements of the thieves, is it at a glance? This official school academy …… is not simple!”
“But …… if this goes on, isn’t this official school academy going to compare the saints?” Hu Guang wrinkled without, looking worried.
We all come from a scholarly background, and to put it bluntly, we all rely on the sages as our grandmasters to reward us for our food.
And the bowl smells good.
Maintaining the saint’s learning is the right thing to do. If the saint s learning is not flourishing, then …… it is inevitable that someone will ask, “What makes you an official, and what makes you a university scholar?
Compared to Hu Guang’s reaction, Yang Rong was very calm, he smiled and said, “Hey, Lord Hu is just worrying too much.”
“People do not have far-flung worries, there must be near worries.” Hu Guang laughed and said, just this laugh does not have the meaning of happy at all.
Yang Rong exhaled a long breath, then said, “That said, but …… have you ever thought that the rise and fall of the Sage’s School has nothing to do with the government school academy, nor with Zhang Anshi, and even less with His Majesty.”
“What does Lord Yang mean by this?”
Yang Rong said: “This rise and fall, not in others, but lies in our own ah, if the saints under the door, one by one really follow the example of the sages, or for Ban Chao, or for Zhang Qian, or for Dong Zhongshu, Han Yu, Ouyang Xiu’s generation, then why worry about the saint of science does not rise?”
“Wen can set the country, martial arts can security, if the talent is abundant, into the country to share the worry, retreat to cultivate oneself, the world …… who can die of sacred learning? Relying on his district a Zhang Anshi, or with this official school academy?”
Yang Rong continued: “But if everyone as some of the saint school to invite the name of the people to show off, the mouth is the saint school, but not beneficial to the country and the people, even if the saint school signboard play again good, the decline of the saint school, is only sooner or later, today does not die in Zhang Anshi and the official school school, the other day also want to die in Liu Anshi, Zhou Anshi and the stream.”
“The death of Qin Qin also, not other. Today this sacred learning, since the respect for Confucianism, mixed into how many only think by the four books and five scriptures, and make official position of the people, these people …… really read through the book? I do not think so, in fact, but the holy science as a knock on the door, as a ladder to rise, so, the saint’s door, mixed fish and dragons, despicable people do not know how many. How can this go on?”
“”So …… Hu Gong instead of worrying about Zhang Anshi, to worry about that official school academy, why don’t you think about it, this saint’s door, how many Scribe scum. People do not go to discipline themselves, but harsh to others, this is not what a gentleman does, and not the way to accomplish things.”
When Hu Guang heard it, his face blushed, and he could not help but say, “Hey …… what you said is not unreasonable.”
“Let’s go, go up the mountain to have a look to see how that manor house is doing, such a bustle can’t be seen on weekdays.” Yang Rong had a relaxed look on his face and said with a smile, “Speaking of which, I admire Zhang Anshi, what we claimed to be the saint’s disciples couldn’t do, he was able to do it, isn’t that worthy of admiration? At a young age, to have such talent, it is truly enviable.”
Hu Guang couldn’t help but be happy as well, nodding his head and saying, “Once upon a time, I heard that he was infamous, but now that I’ve seen this son, I really don’t dare to look straight at him.”
…………
Just then, Zhu had arrived at the Zhuangzi.
And then, Chu heaved a breath of cool air.
Behind him, Zhu Neng and the others were also so surprised that their jaws dropped and they couldn’t even speak.
They looked at what was in front of them and were actually a little dazed.
Is there anything in the world ……… that has such destructive power?
That once majestic Zhuangzi, now …… is only a broken wall.
Even the thick walls have now collapsed by a large margin.
The terrible thing is that …… all around is scorched black, and everything that can be ignited here has been turned into dust and smoke.
