Chapter 493: The Literary Circle
The great Confucianism of the southeast died in the imperial capital, and in the imperial capital, some literati went to mourn.
The news spread quickly, although everyone knew that it was Mr. Su who was angry with Qin Ming, but it was true that it was not said that it was also illegal to be angry.
Therefore, although many literati are unhappy about this matter, it is impossible to punish Qin Ming with the law.
So, as the emperor guessed, many Confucian brothers everywhere were angry after hearing Qin Ming's verbal sarcasm of Su Daru and killing Su Daru angrily.
is not only because of Su Daru's status in Confucianism, but more importantly, everyone thinks that people like Qin Ming are sarcastic about Su Daru, but they don't respect them, Confucian masters.
Then, many Confucian masters wrote to each other and began to plan and prepare to find a venue.
After the plan was made, everyone felt that it was troublesome to find Qin Ming, and he had to be famous.
So, on the grounds that Qin Ming did not respect Su Da Confucian, everyone said that Qin Ming despised the power of Confucianism, so the Confucian scholars in the world should attack him in groups, so that Qin Ming could see the power of Confucian culture.
A few days later, just two days before the New Year, Qin Ming received a letter of challenge.
Of course, this challenge book does not want Qin Ming to fight, but also invites Qin Ming to have a competition with the four great Confucian scholars in the world.
Roughly speaking, it means:
Aren't you Qin Ming crazy? Doesn't it mean that the dignified Su Daru is not worthy of being a great Confucian? Saying that he is not as good as you Qin Ming, saying that he is a scum in the literary world? Okay, then we Confucian scholars will come and see how much culture you Qin Ming have.
Soon, everyone in the world knew that there were some famous Confucian scholars in various places who wanted to challenge Qin Ming, correct Mr. Su's name, and save face for Confucianism.
When Qin Ming received the challenge, he really laughed.
Spell culture? With a 21st century traveler, fight culture?
Are you sure it's not the brains that have a bag?
Qin Ming felt that this was the most interesting thing he had encountered since he came to this world.
Of course, he didn't even think about it, so he took on the challenge.
So, when the New Year was approaching, the people of the imperial capital had melons to eat.
The four great Confucian scholars challenged Qin Ming, and Qin Ming responded, this melon is enough to eat.
Qin Ming not only accepted the challenge, but also announced that he would set up a literary altar on Suzaku Street, openly accept the challenge, and invite people from all over the world to come and observe.
Originally, those Confucian scholars made the momentum quite big, but when Qin Ming did this, this matter was even bigger.
This was something that the Confucian scholars did not expect, but they were happy to see such a scene.
Imperial Palace, Qingxin Palace, after the emperor called Qin Ming, he said solemnly:
"Qin Ming, I thought that the Confucian scholars in the world would make trouble for you, and you would be able to deal with it, but I didn't expect that you would agree to compete with them and hold a literary meeting, what are you planning to do...... Do you really compete with these people for knowledge? ”
Qin Ming nodded solemnly: "Yes, does Your Majesty think that I am very uneducated?" ”
The emperor shook his head: "You have literary talent, but if you compare it with these famous Confucian scholars, you are afraid that you will suffer." ”
"Your Majesty don't worry, in terms of culture, I have received nine years of compulsory education, I am familiar with 300 Tang poems, Chinese, mathematics, chemistry, physics, and I am definitely not worse than them." Qin Ming said confidently.
The emperor was stunned for a moment and said, "I know mathematics, it's mathematics, right?" What is that language? What is chemical physics? ”
Qin Ming opened his mouth to explain: "These are all knowledge, for example, this burning carbon is a chemical reaction between carbon particles and oxygen that is exothermic and luminous.
Another example is arsenic, which is accompanied by a small amount of sulfur and sulfide during the extraction process. The sulfur contained in it can cause a chemical reaction when it comes into contact with silver, causing a black layer of "silver sulfide" to be formed on the surface of the silver needle.
That's why coal can be burned, and why silver needles can test the principle of arsenic, which is a poison, that is, chemistry and physics. Chemistry and physics are everything in our world. ”
Qin Ming looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, my explanation is simple enough, do you understand?" ”
The emperor opened his mouth with a bewildered look, but he still spoke:
"Yes, I can understand it, I understand this kind of knowledge very well. Glowing and black, you know! ”
Qin Ming's face trembled, and he was embarrassed to debunk it, so he said:
"Anyway...... The knowledge I know is definitely not what people in this world can imagine, and when the time comes, when I compete with them, they will only lose the ass urine. ”
After listening to what Qin Ming had just said, the emperor knew it in his heart.
He was forced, how good could those Confucian scholars be?
For Qin Ming's words that sound awesome and don't quite understand, what can you do if you don't admit defeat?
"Okay, I'm sure they're going to lose badly, and the day after tomorrow is the New Year, so you'll have to get a good prize." The emperor patted Qin Ming on the shoulder.
Qin Ming smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will let them come with a smile and leave crying." ”
The Emperor nodded and said, "Go back and prepare!" ”
Qin Ming snorted, then turned around and left.
Seeing Qin Ming leaving, the emperor looked at Gonggong Liu and said, "Do you understand the knowledge points of chemistry that Qin Ming just said?" ”
Gonggong Liu shook his head: "Your Majesty, I don't even know what Marquis Qin is talking about. ”
The Emperor took a sip of tea and thought, "I don't know, but it sounds powerful."
Soon, Suzaku Street was built near one of the most spacious places in the Imperial Palace.
There are three big words on it: "Literary Circle!" ”
The next day, some literary masters who rushed over from all over the world arrived one after another.
Among them, the four most powerful, that is, the four who challenged Qin Ming this time, are Mr. Liu in the southwest, Mr. Zhou in the northwest, Mr. Zhao in the east, and Mr. Li in the north.
After they arrived, they set a test with Qin Ming in the afternoon.
Qin Ming had no opinion, so in the afternoon of the same day, he gathered in the literary world.
On the left, Qin Ming sat on a chair alone, and on the right, the four masters sat on a chair.
In the first row below, there are the sacrificial wines of the Ministry of Rites and the Guozijian, as well as some literati representatives of the imperial capital.
Then there are the literati from all over the world who come to see the excitement, as well as the literati of the imperial capital.
On the periphery are the people watching the bustle.
Qin Ming looked at the four masters opposite, all of whom looked like they were in their fifties.
These masters also looked at Qin Ming, all with disdain.
In their opinion, what cultural knowledge can Qin Ming have at such a young age?
Qin Ming also looked down on these four people, because the so-called knowledge of these four people was really pediatric for Qin Ming.
When the two sides were ready, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu came to the stage and said:
"Today, the four great Confucian scholars, against the Marquis of Qin, launched a literary competition, and the two sides came up with their own questions, and those who could not answer the other party would lose. During the competition, please ask questions and ...... politely"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Ming spoke: "The four big fools on the other side...... I'm sorry I cursed, what's that, let's get out of the question! ”
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu looked helpless, thinking that this scene might not be easy to control!
