Chapter 269: Heir of the Mo Family
Zhuge Mansion.
Inside the secret room.
At this moment, as Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying walked hand in hand side by side, leading Guan Ping through the corridors of the secret room, and with the gradual rise of the torches, the originally dark place was illuminated.
The whole interior feels like a world away, and the light is extremely bright at the moment.
The group walked forward.
After about a quarter of an hour, at a dark corner in front of them, Zhuge and his wife stopped!
Then, Zhuge Liang pushed hard, and his foot suddenly stepped on a stone similar to a wooden stake.
"Boring and boring!"
In an instant, there was a sudden clanging sound all around, one after another.
In the next second, the originally dark place was suddenly surrounded by golden and pale orange firelight all over the secret room.
As the torches around the secret room rose, Guan Ping was suddenly stunned when he saw it!
Half ringing did not come back to his senses.
At first glance, it was a very large secret room, surrounded by a torch every few steps, and the outer part of the torch seemed to be connected to each other like a tiny wire.
These dozens of lines are connected to the stones.
In addition to being shocked, Guan Ping couldn't help but secretly figure out the principle.
The stone that Zhuge Liang stepped on is estimated to be designed based on the principle of spring, supplemented by dozens of lines connecting torches, forming a switch.
The surrounding area is wide, and there are many desks.
The desk was covered with numerous drawings and other miscellaneous items.
There are also many models around it.
Such as repeaters, arrows, and all kinds of knives, guns, spears, and hoes and other farm tools!
Even, Guan Ping's eyes moved slightly, and he vaguely saw several hot air balloons stacked in another place.
To be precise, it should be Kong Ming lantern.
It is conceivable that the chamber would have been a laboratory.
On weekdays, there should be people here who do experiments regularly.
Staring around for a while, Guan Ping's heart was already shocked, and then he said in a hoarse voice: "Uncle, this is?" β
He stretched out his hand and pointed, his face revealing a look of incomprehension!
Why did you bring him here?
Obviously, since this place is the secret room of Zhuge Mansion, it must be an extremely obscure place.
Guan Ping couldn't figure out why he had to be brought in.
After all, he just asked to see the model of Yuan Rong's repeater, but he didn't mean to peek into the secret news.
After hearing this, Zhuge Liang on the side showed a faint smile and smiled without saying a word.
Huang Yueying, who was on the other side, couldn't help but approach and said, "Ping'er, this is where my aunt does experiments and studies all kinds of instruments on weekdays. β
"Auntie?"
"You invented all these models?"
As soon as the words fell, Guan Ping's shocked face was completely stunned.
He felt completely incredible at this moment!
Huang Yueying turned out to be proficient in mechanical techniques.
This was a big surprise to him!
After all, according to historical records, black technologies such as Zhuge Lian's crossbow and wooden ox flowing horse were all from Zhuge Liang's hands, and there was almost no mention of Huang Yueying's work.
After that, Huang Yueying's slender face smiled slightly, and only after half a sound did she suddenly look at Zhuge Liang on the side, and said softly: "Actually, this is not the work of my aunt alone. β
"The models of the various instruments being developed in this secret room were designed by your uncle and me!"
Speaking of this, Huang Yueying's smile gradually brightened, and she slowly explained: "Ping'er may not know that Aunt is actually a descendant of the Mo family. β
"The heir of the Mo family?"
Another voice fell, and Guan Ping's heart once again set off an uproar.
After thinking about it, he couldn't help but show doubts and asked: "But auntie, haven't the hundred families been lonely one after another since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism?" β
"In the past hundreds of years, because Confucianism has been highly valued by the imperial court, they have controlled important positions in the court both internally and externally, so they have also vigorously promoted their doctrines, and vigorously attacked and excluded, or absorbed the essence of a hundred schools of thought to enrich themselves."
"Today, Baijia has long faded out of the eyes of the world."
"Auntie, is there still a heritage in your hundred families?"
In a short period of time.
Guan Ping's inner doubts were one after another, asking.
Hearing this, Huang Yueying glanced at Zhuge Liang from the side, saw him smiling, and signaled that she was okay.
Immediately, she explained in a crisp voice: "Actually, Ping'er, you are right! β
"Due to the great prosperity of Confucianism, hundreds of schools of thought have been squeezed out, after hundreds of years of blows, the situation of decline has been irreversible, even if the rest of the schools can unite with each other, it is still difficult to shake the extremely huge rolling chariot of Confucianism."
"Under such circumstances, the rest of the family heirs also jointly convened a secret meeting, and finally determined an earth-shattering event."
"That is to abandon the inheritance of our families and integrate into Confucianism."
After speaking, Huang Yueying's face couldn't help but feel a little sad, and she whispered: "My aunt's father was the last successor of the Mo family, and he once told me that the integration of the hundred schools into Confucianism is not all for personal gain. β
"On the one hand, I want the doctrines of each family to be passed on so that they will not gradually be lost."
"On the other hand, there are many tools for the benefit of the world, if we do not integrate into Confucianism, we will inevitably be purged by them, and these things will not be able to be passed on to the world!"
"After all, the decline of the hundred schools of thought is a foregone conclusion, and each family also hopes to preserve the doctrine while also contributing to the scientific and technological development of the Han Dynasty."
A voice slowly settled.
After hearing this, Guan Ping suddenly realized, and hurriedly asked: "Auntie, then you mean that there are actually hundreds of Confucian schools in the world that have been integrated into it?" β
"Aren't they pure Confucian protΓ©gΓ©s?"
"Yes."
When the words fell, Huang Yueying had not yet replied, and Zhuge Liang on the side chuckled with a feather fan in his hand.
"Actually, I am the new generation of the Mo family."
As soon as he spoke, Zhuge Liang's face was indifferent, and he said lightly.
"Uncle, ...... are you?"
The voice fell.
Huang Yueying on the side explained: "Ping'er, you may not know the rules of the Mo family, the heir must be a man. β
"But my father is the only one under his knees in his life."
"But as the heir of the Mo family, although his aunt is extremely proficient in mechanical techniques, she can't share it for him because of her daughter, as the inheritor."
"It wasn't until my father met Kong Ming that he discovered that Kong Ming was not only knowledgeable, but also had extraordinary talent in the skills of the mechanism."
"It is precisely because of this that my aunt can come together with her husband, and my husband can naturally become my father's successor."
As soon as the words fell, Guan Ping was slowly relieved, looked at Zhuge Liang's tall body, and thought secretly.
With the explanation of the Zhuge couple, at this moment he seemed to have learned a lot of inside information.
An inside story that has never been seen before, not even in history books.
