Fu Tinghan brought his manuscript for calculating the five stars. Of course it was not a draft. It was calculated carefully by him, and there were still some things he didn't understand. It just so happened that Guo Pu was good at arithmetic and astronomy, and he also wanted to ask him for advice.
Ancient stargazing and astral calculations were actually very advanced. Even in modern times, they are still ahead of the West. Their theories are not outdated even in modern times, and there are even mysteries that they cannot solve.
He never dared to underestimate any of his ancestors.
He carefully arranged the manuscripts and put them into the box, feeling a little guilty, "Would it be inappropriate to take this as a gift?"
"No, the purpose of giving gifts is to satisfy the person he likes. Isn't this something good for him?" Zhao Hanzhang affirmed: "He will definitely like it."
Fu Tinghan thought for himself. If someone gave him the difficult problem he was calculating and discussed it together, he would be very happy. So he nodded, closed the box, and said, "Let's go."
The two of them went to Ji Yuan's house together. Ji Yuan had expected it and greeted him at the gate in advance.
Zhao Hanzhang asked: "Sir, could you sleep well last night?"
Ji Yuan: "I am sleeping peacefully, but I don't know if other colleagues are sleeping peacefully."
Zhao Hanzhang burst out laughing, not feeling guilty for leaving such a problem and making them unable to have a good year.
Ji Yuan invited them to an attic in the garden, where there was a second floor with large windows. Guo Pu was enjoying the snow around the stove on the second floor.
Guo Pu was drinking hot wine when he saw three people coming up. He quickly stood up to greet them and said, "Guo pays homage to the general."
Zhao Hanzhang supported him and said: "Hurry up and forgive me. I have heard about Mr. Guo's reputation for a long time, and today I saw that he is well-deserved. I heard that Kuai Yi and others were able to reach Luoyang safely only because of his guidance, and they avoided many dangers along the way."
Guo Pu was not modest and said directly: "It's just a small plan. Small disasters can be avoided, but major disasters are difficult to resolve. We can only adapt to the weather and make preparations in advance."
"Oh? But I wonder what big disasters will happen to Dajin within this year?"
Guo Pu suddenly raised his eyes and looked straight at her. After a moment, he suddenly smiled and said, "There are no major natural disasters. It is as small as drought and floods in some counties. With the ability of a general, it can be settled quickly."
Zhao Hanzhang: "Then someone is causing trouble?"
"Misfortune depends on blessings, and it cannot be said that the general is a blessing." Guo Pu said: "The destiny has been changed because of the virtue of the general. As long as the general does not forget his original intention and does not repeat the path of the King of East China Sea, Gou Xi and others, then
There is no big disaster for the country."
Zhao Hanzhang laughed and picked up the wine glass, "Okay, Mr. Guo's good wishes!"
Guo Pu's eyes flashed slightly and he drank all the wine. He thought she would ask him about his destiny.
After all, who can resist this temptation?
King Langya asked, and even Wang Dun secretly inquired about it, but he didn't expect that she would not even mention it, but directly changed the topic to another side, "The imperial court lacks talents like Mr. Guo. I wonder if Mr. Guo is willing to stay in Luoyang for
official?"
"this……"
Zhao Hanzhang said: "I can recommend you to be the Young Minister of Taichang Temple."
Guo Pu's eyes flashed slightly, and she said it was a recommendation, but actually coming from her, it was almost like a direct reward.
The Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, whose status is second only to Taichang Qing, is mainly responsible for assisting Taichang Qing in activities such as sacrifices, rituals and music, community and education, oh, as well as divination, calendar calculation, etc.
Zhao Hanzhang's wedding yesterday was also included in Taichang Temple's responsibilities.
There is not much work in this place. According to Guo Pu's understanding, unless the emperor dies or ascends the throne and the monarch changes, everyone usually does the basic work of calendar calculation.
The almanac shared by the imperial court now basically copies the Taichu calendar. In some places, it has not been changed and the Taichu calendar is used. They just revise and revise it every year and print more books and distribute them. The work is very leisurely.
An adjutant had a high status, a high salary, and plenty of time to do. Guo Pu weighed it up and thought he could take on the job. The most important thing was that he escaped. King Langya and Wang Dun would definitely want to get rid of him quickly.
After all, they asked him such fatal questions separately.
Along the way, he relied solely on his own talents and talents to avoid the waves of people who came to arrest or kill him. The world is so big, and the only people who can protect him now are the King of Shu and Zhao Hanzhang.
King Shu... forget it, it's not a sure thing. What if King Langya gives him too much and sells him?
And now the King of Shu has also surrendered to Zhao Hanzhang, so Zhao Hanzhang is still the most powerful.
Destiny guided him here, which means that this is his destination.
After making up his mind, Guo Pu stood up, bowed and said, "How dare you disobey me!"
Zhao Hanzhang laughed happily and said: "I arranged a house for my husband, right next to the Imperial College. Taichang Qing Zhao Zitu offered wine to the Imperial College and studied there. I think your husband's magic is very powerful.
Why don't you, sir, get your name in Taixue and become a doctor?"
Guo Pu hesitated for a moment, and Ji Yuan on the side smiled and said: "It's just a magic number. Zhao Jijiu teaches the Classics and History Collection, and he also has time to drink and drink tea every day. Mr. Guo doesn't need to worry about time."
Guo Pu thought the same thing. The official school did not attach much importance to subjects such as arithmetic and mathematics, far less than the concentration of classics and history.
It seems that he can give it a try and get two salaries. It is not that he loves money, but that he has just arrived in Luoyang and is penniless. When he becomes an official, he needs to buy a lot of things and buy slaves. He has no money.
.
So he agreed under Zhao Hanzhang's expectant eyes and Ji Yuan's encouragement.
Zhao Hanzhang was so happy that he gave him the gift he had brought.
Guo Pu originally wanted to wait for others to leave before opening it, but Zhao Hanzhang looked at him expectantly, "Mr. Guo, don't you open it and have a look?"
Guo Pu paused and opened the box.
Guo Pu:!!
He picked up the manuscript inside with confusion. Zhao Hanzhang wouldn't give him poems, would he?
Although it is indeed an honor to do so, he is even more short of money now...
After seeing the contents of the manuscript clearly, the expression on Guo Pu's face gradually turned serious. He looked seriously and at the same time performed rapid mental calculations. When he saw the five-star motion trajectory diagram in the next picture, Guo Pu sat upright.
He lifted his body and asked excitedly: "Who calculated this? General, please tell me who painted this?"
Zhao Hanzhang pointed to Fu Tinghan.
Guo Pu turned to look at Fu Tinghan, who had been sitting quietly since going upstairs. He clenched the manuscript paper in his hand. He leaned forward and took Fu Tinghan's hand. "A fellow man, Fu Langjun, this five-star trajectory chart
What did you draw it based on?”
"The difference in the elliptical orbit I calculated is the difference in the sun's gain and contraction." After calculating the difference in gain and contraction, it is natural to draw a trajectory diagram.
In fact, he started making astronomical maps to fulfill his promise to Zhao Hanzhang and find his way home; but later they found it impossible and gradually accepted the world. He continued to do research just to write a new almanac.
