The compilation of the "Chronicles of the Territory" by Li Tai, the king of Wei, was not a secret among the courtiers, and the fact that Li Tai, the king of Wei, had always been favored, and the ministers also knew it clearly, and when they heard Li Shimin's invitation, the ministers naturally went.

"The sons have seen their fathers and emperors, and they have seen the ministers."

In front of the palace of King Wei, Li Tai respectfully saluted Li Shimin and the ministers,

The ministers looked up, and they were surprised to see that not long ago in Chang'an City, many ministers of the Luoyang family suddenly turned dark, and they didn't have a good face for Merton.

"Wechen has seen the emperor and the ministers." Merton touched his nose and reluctantly stepped forward to salute Li Shimin and the ministers.

Li Shimin looked at Mo Dun and snorted coldly, then turned his head to look at Li Tai and Yan Yuese and said, "Excuse me!" Qingque, you said that there was a major discovery in the "Chronicles of the Territory", and today I will take a hundred civil and military officials to testify. ”

"I will definitely not disappoint my father!" Li Tai said respectfully.

Li Shimin nodded, and followed Li Tai to the palace of King Wei, and the ministers followed, and Morton consciously followed behind the ministers.

"Mo boy, what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd of King Wei!" Unconsciously, Cheng Yanjin retreated to Merton's side and muttered quietly.

Merton vaguely pointed to his feet, Cheng Biting Jin suddenly had a black line, he naturally instructed Li Tai to write a chronicle of the earth, but what does it mean to point to the ground.

Merton reluctantly bowed his head and whispered in Cheng Yanjin's ear, which suddenly made Cheng Yanjin show a shocked face.

"Seriously!" Cheng Yanjin exclaimed.

Merton nodded affirmatively.

Cheng Yanjin gasped, couldn't help staring at Li Tai at the front, and couldn't help muttering: "If that's the case, I'm afraid today's matter will be big." ”

I saw Li Tai at the front, leading everyone to a large stone full of shells, and said loudly: "Erchen's compilation of the Chronicles of the Territory was originally a record of the great rivers and mountains of my Tang Dynasty and the prosperity of the times, but during the Western Expedition, a serendipitous discovery of ink sacrificial wine attracted the attention of Erchen. ”

"Is this the stone?" Li Shimin looked at the shells on the stone suspiciously.

Li Tai nodded and said, "Yes, this is the stone of the shell beam, I believe many generals present have also seen it." ”

Cheng Yanjin suddenly said loudly: "Yes, when this kid Morton was digging stones, the old man saw with his own eyes, and there were many miles of such stones. ”

Many generals nodded one after another, they were all present at the beginning, but they were just looking at it and didn't take it to heart. I didn't expect to be so solemnly introduced by King Wei today, and I couldn't help but be cautious.

"There are shells in the desert!" Many civil officials couldn't help but look at this strange stone in front of them curiously, and with so many generals testifying, everyone naturally believed in its authenticity, and couldn't help but be amazed.

"It's a well-known fact that shellfish shells are abundant only in the water, or even near lakes, so many years ago, the land of Qinghai must have been an ocean." Li Tai directly threw out the conclusion of the discussion with Merton that day.

The ministers were in an uproar, and even Li Shimin's eyes couldn't help but widen suddenly, and it was the first time he had heard of this conclusion.

Everyone wanted to refute it, but it was an indisputable fact that the shells in the real stone in front of them were in front of them, because shells could only live in water.

"Therefore, Erchen thinks that there is a force that keeps making the land of Qinghai rise, even the Tubo Plateau." Li Tai affirmed.

The ministers were silent, although they couldn't accept it in their hearts, they had to admit that what Li Tai said did have some truth.

Li Tai continued: "At the same time, the child also carefully collected all the places where the earthquake occurred in the history books, but it turned out to be an unexpected discovery. ”

Li Tai waved his hand, only to see a map of the Tang Dynasty appear in front of the ministers, one by one the earthquake sites recorded in history, forming an earthquake zone, half around the land of Qinghai and the Tubo Plateau.

"Earthquake!"

The ministers were suddenly startled and looked at Li Tai in disbelief.

Wei Zheng's face was gloomy and he said: "His Royal Highness the King of Wei means that the earth dragon turned over, causing this vicissitudes of life. ”

Li Tai shook his head and said: "What this king means is that it is the vicissitudes of the sea that created the earth dragon to turn over, and it is the force that makes the land of Qinghai continue to rise, and the underground rocks cannot withstand this kind of force to break This is the earthquake that is formed."

Li Tai stretched out his hand, only to see two eunuchs carrying a huge tofu, put it in front of the ministers, randomly inserted several long bamboo sticks into the tofu, one by one, the two of them used force at the same time, only to hear the sound of the frightened snap, the bamboo stick broke from it, and the huge force at the fracture directly pushed the tofu out of a big hole.

"That's how earthquakes are modeled." Li Tai said proudly.

The last Merton of the hundred officials couldn't help but look at Li Shimin who was concentrating on the side with surprised eyes, this principle he had shown in front of Li Shimin, but now it appeared in Li Tai's hands, if it was not Li Shimin's instructions, he would not believe it.

Many Wenchen were shocked in their hearts, what Li Tai showed them was just a small experiment, but for them it was no less than a thunderbolt, the earthquake is the last barrier such as today's human induction, everything Li Tai showed today completely made the heavenly and human induction a joke, how to mention restricting the imperial power.

In other words, from then on, the power of imperial power swelled to the extreme, and what Confucianism had done before was simply a joke, how could such a group of civil officials accept this situation.

Many civil officials immediately glared angrily at the last Merton who was shrinking in the corner, if it weren't for his continuous debunking of various phenomena of heaven and man, how could Confucianism have such a passive situation.

"It's a bunch of nonsense, a few small bamboo skewers and a piece of tofu want to explain that the earth dragon turned over, it's a joke!" Surprisingly, Li Shimin suddenly scolded Li Tai.

Li Tai hurriedly pleaded: "This is a guess by Erchen, and I ask you to forgive the boy for being bold." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay to make bold guesses when you're learning, even if it's wrong."

"His Royal Highness King Wei is so young and so studious, it is really extraordinary."

……………………

One by one, Wenchen's faces suddenly became kind and kind, and he looked at Li Tai with teachable eyes, as if he was looking at a diligent and studious nephew.

Li Shimin's face softened slightly, and he said: "In the future, we must concentrate on learning, we must be truth-seeking and pragmatic, eliminate the false and keep the truth, and we must not be sloppy in our studies, and don't make these specious things again." ”

"The child obeys his father's orders!" Li Tai said with a respectful face.

The Manchu courtiers watched helplessly as the father and son sang and harmonized, although Li Shimin personally refuted Li Tai's argument, but everyone knew that from then on, they could no longer do anything to limit the imperial power.

Many people originally wanted to continue to persuade Zheng Chonghua, but at this moment they silently forgot all the admonitions in their hearts, and there is no point in arguing about these at this moment.
