Si Tianjian will stand up and refute His Highness the Crown Prince, which will not go beyond everyone's expectations.
Stargazing, divination, and calendar calculation have always been Si Tianjian's duties. Although His Royal Highness the Prince's words just now are well-founded and vividly demonstrated, even people like them who don't understand astrology can't hear it.
He may be convinced, but this is tantamount to destroying Si Tianjian's brand. To put it more deeply, it is destroying the faith of those who have devoted their lives to this.
However, no one expected that when Si Tianjian stood up, His Highness the Crown Prince did not argue with him. The change happened so quickly, and even... it was confusing.
What's more, although Si Tianjian is old, he has not yet reached the point where he is old and confused. There is such an obvious difference between the two pieces of silver, so he will not admit his mistake, right?
When it comes to matters of faith, Si Tianjian was still able to neither be humble nor arrogant when facing His Highness the Crown Prince. He looked at his hands and said: "Although "Shang Shu" has not said this, His Highness the Crown Prince must not think that I am.
I'm so confused, if His Highness lets go at the same time, the heavy silver will naturally fall to the ground first."
Boom.
Li Xuan let go of his hand, and the two pieces of silver fell to the ground, and also hit the old man Si Tianjian's heart.
"this……"
The courtiers who were watching were also in an uproar.
This is unreasonable. Is there any fraud involved?
Si Tianjian unbelievingly picked up the two pieces of silver, weighed the weight, and tried them with his own hands. Then he took out two pieces of different sizes from his arms, tried them again, and murmured: "How could it be possible?"
So, how could it be like this..."
Not far away, Prince Ning smiled and said a few words in Emperor Jing's ear. After Emperor Jing was slightly surprised, a smile appeared on his face, "This child..."
Zeng Zuimo tugged at Li Yi's sleeve and asked curiously: "Why is this?"
Li Yi turned his head and glanced, and said: "I can't explain it for a while. When I get home in the evening, I will explain it to you slowly."
"Cough!" Not far behind the two of them, Master Jing Zhaoyin Zeng coughed heavily.
An official next to him asked doubtfully: "Master Zeng, are you feeling unwell?"
Zeng Shichun waved his hand, "I got a bit cold yesterday, it's okay, it's okay..."
On the other side, Si Tianjian stood there in a daze, forgetting to pick up the silver that fell on the ground.
Hearing the comments coming from around him, he finally came to his senses, suppressed the shock and confusion in his heart, and immediately said: "These two things cannot be confused. What I am talking about is the solar eclipse and the
Lunar eclipse, what you just said is a complete nonsense, a complete nonsense..."
Li Xuan bowed his hands politely and said, "Since Si Tianjian thinks what I just said is nonsense, you might as well point out where I went wrong. Li Xuan is all ears."
His Highness the Crown Prince's attitude made all the courtiers nod their heads. This is the manner and demeanor that a royal family should have. It is really rare for His Highness the Crown Prince to maintain this state of mind even when accepting accusations.
Even so, looking at this Si Tianjian, with such an attitude, he immediately fell into inferior position.
"You, you are wrong..."
Si Tianjian opened his mouth, but only said these few words.
He only knew that His Highness the Crown Prince must be wrong and must be wrong, but he couldn't tell where exactly he was wrong.
What he just said was so reasonable and well-founded, and his demonstration was so vivid and clear. Where could he make any mistakes?
After he opened his mouth several times, he waved his hand and said loudly: "It's nonsense, it's simply nonsense..."
Li Xuan still asked politely: "Since it is nonsense, please tell Si Tianjian, where is the nonsense?"
"You..., in short..., you are full of nonsense!"
"My lord, you are being unreasonable..."
Not only Li Xuan thought he was unreasonable, but most people present thought so.
Even if His Highness the Crown Prince is wrong, as long as Si Tianjian gives a basis like he just did, everyone will have their own conclusions in their minds. But it is obvious that His Highness the Crown Prince has always been well-founded and humble and polite.
The Tianjian only understands the words "a bunch of nonsense". He is obviously a little confused...
The smile on Li Xuan's face disappeared. He looked at the old man and said coldly: "I'm trying to reason with you. If you continue to be so messy, our Academy of Sciences and the Prince's Mansion are not so easy to bully."
When the old man looked at him like this, his body trembled, but he suddenly laughed wildly and said: "I figured it out. You just said that the lunar eclipse is the shadow cast by the earth on the moon. So, the shadow of the earth on the moon
The shadow should be extremely square, why is it curved!"
As soon as these words came out, the place suddenly became silent again.
After thinking for a while, many people nodded slightly. What Si Tianjian said was very reasonable. If His Highness, the Crown Prince, could not explain it, then his judgment just now would be very questionable.
Li Xuan looked thoughtful, nodded, and said, "What you said makes sense..."
A smile appeared on Si Tianjian's face: "You also admit that you are talking nonsense!"
Li Xuan thought for a while and said: "Thanks to Si Tianjian for reminding me, since the sun is round, the moon is round, even Yinghuo is round, and all the stars seen with this object are round, then why, the same
In the starry sky, our earth cannot be round?"
He clapped his hands suddenly and suddenly realized: "Yes, no wonder, no wonder the shadow of the earth on the moon is arc-shaped, no wonder you can see far when you climb high, no wonder the horizon you see when standing on the seaside is also arc-shaped, no wonder you can see the sky from the sea.
When a big ship comes, you always see the mast first and then the hull... Maybe the ground under our feet is also a big ball?"
Si Tianjian stood on the spot, His Highness the Crown Prince's words echoed in his mind, and then there was a buzz.
"Haha, it's nonsense, it's nonsense..."
"You are deceiving the public with your evil talk. This is your evil talk to deceive the public!"
"Yao Xing, it turns out you are Yao Xing, Yao Xing..."
…
Li Xuan looked at Si Tianjian who was looking crazy across from him, waved his hand and said, "Take this gentleman down to rest..."
No one cares about the crazy Si Tianjian anymore. What His Highness the Crown Prince said just now is running over and over in their minds.
Si Tianjian's words just now not only enlightened His Highness the Crown Prince, but also made them think deeply.
During the lunar eclipse, the shadow of the earth; the sails coming from the sea; if the earth is flat, why bother climbing up to see far; the sun, the moon, the reflection...
Why have they never thought about these things? His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness is really smart and quick...
Among the crowd, Cui Qingze's face could no longer be described as gloomy.
Li Xuan clapped his hands and continued to explain.
"After talking about solar eclipses and lunar eclipses, let's talk about Yinghuo guarding the heart. What is going on... Everyone has just seen that there is nothing around Yinghuo. Use this object to see the heart, and
Looking at it with our eyes, there is not much difference. This is because the heart is too far away from us, just like two things staggered forward and backward. When we look at it from a distance, we will also see it.
I thought they were very close to each other..."
"The heart is so far away from us that what we see is five hundred..."
"cough!"
Li Xuan turned around and looked at Li Yi, with a look of disappointment on his face, and then turned back and said: "In short, it is impossible to meet Yinghuo and Xinsu forever. Therefore, the so-called Yinghuo guards the heart, and the disaster star rushes
The statement about the heart is originally nonsense, but anyone who uses this to slander the royal family has ulterior motives..."
He finally sighed and said: "Compared with the vast starry sky, how small we are, and who knows that when we look up at the starry sky, what we see is just the passing of the starry sky..."
"Cough! Cough!"
Li Yi covered his mouth and coughed twice. The goddess of Luoshui beside him asked with concern: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable? How about we go back early?"
The tsundere loli also looked nervous: "Ah, sir, I'm not feeling well. I'll ask my father, the Imperial Physician Xuan..."
Li Yi grabbed her hand tightly and didn't let her run away. He shook his head and said, "It's okay, but my throat is a little itchy. It's better now..."
A trace of pain appeared on the face of the tsundere loli. She looked up at Li Yi pitifully and whispered: "Sir, the person you caught hurts so much..."
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
Li Yi hurriedly let go of her hand. On the other side, Li Xuan had finished his science popularization activities, pointed to the telescope on the side, and said with a smile: "That's it for today's stargazing party. If anyone still wants to watch it again,
Please feel free to see the whole picture of Yinghuo..."
As soon as the voice fell, the crowd surged away in a certain direction.
