The scientific name of the Son of Heaven is Piyong, surrounded by four waters, like a wall ring; The study of the princes is called Pan Palace, surrounded by three waters, shaped like a peninsula. At the time of the Warring States Period, it didn't matter whether it exceeded the system or not, but the old Yinglantai shape system was like this, and the Shouying shape system must be like this, otherwise, the nightmare of Bai Qiqi forty years ago would not be able to linger.

Xiong Jing didn't understand the origin of Shouying's establishment, and he didn't care about these things. In his opinion, this Lantai Academy was just an ancient aristocratic school, and he came here to register as a primary school student, and he had to study for seven years before he could enter the university.

“…… Admission is based on teeth, and students are all in the order of elder and younger, regardless of dignity and inferiority. "After settling down, Ge began a new round of popular science." There are three virtues in virtue, which are virtue, sensitiveness, and filial piety; There are three lines in the line, which are filial piety, friendship, and proclamity; There are five rites of etiquette, fierce, auspicious, guest, military, and Jia; There are six music, for "Cloud Gate", "Da Xian", "Da Shao", "Da Xia", "Da Hui" and "Dawu";

There are five shots, which are white arrows, ginseng lian, Yan note, Xiang ruler, and well instrument; There are five royals, for the song and Luan, chasing the water song, passing the monarch's table, dancing and crossing, chasing the bird left; There are six books in the book, which are pictographic, signifying, knowing, forming, phonic, transferring, and borrowing; There are nine numbers, which are Fangtian, Corn, Difference, Shaoguang, Shanggong, Average Loss, Equation, Winning Insufficient, and Sideways.

There are also six instruments......"

"So much!" Ge Kop's endless, Xiong Jing thought that he would end it after he finished talking about the six arts.

"Back to the foot, there are still six instruments, three music, and small dances." This is the orthodox education of the Wang family, Ge has a serious face and a meticulous expression. Seeing Xiong Jing waving his hand, he continued: "Liuyi is the face of sacrifice, the face of guests, the face of the court, the face of funeral, the face of the army, and the face of chariots and horses; The three music are music, music, and dance; The small dances are "Silk Dance", "Feather Dance", "Emperor Dance", "Dancing Dance", "Dry Dance" and "Human Dance". ”

"Do you really want to dance?" Xiong Jingzhi, who had never danced and didn't like to dance in later generations, opened his mouth when he heard this, he couldn't understand how the ancients were more hilarious than modern people, which didn't make sense.

"I would like to tell you that the small dance is the dance of the elementary school, and the dance of the university is the six music. In addition to the big and small dances, there are ......"

"Wait. Big and small dance is a must-learn, but is it a must-learn? "It's just big and small dances, there are other dances.

"The big and small dances are the dances that must be learned, and the elephant dance, the scattered dance, the four-descendant dance, and the heavenly bow dance are not the dances that must be learned, but they ......"

"You don't want to be 'yet'." It's already annoying to learn to dance the twelve kinds of dances, and if you can't learn the other dances, you won't learn them, but if you don't listen to them, you won't listen to them. After stopping Ge, Xiong Jing turned around and asked, "Just learn here, can you go out?" How many days are off? Is the palace law strict? ”

"Back to the foot, the old servant has not heard of the palace law, and he doesn't know how to rest or go out." Ge glanced at Xiong Jing, blinked his eyes, and finally said: "I only heard that there was a son in the previous year who did not abide by the palace rules, was expelled from Lantai, and was condemned to the border county, and he was despised for life." ”

"Condemned to the border county, disgraced for life?" Xiong Jing was not frightened, but became interested, and said with a smile: "What crime did this son commit?" ”

"Old servant...... The old servant didn't know. Thinking of Concubine Zhao's advice, Ge's eyes blinked even harder.

"What do I need to know?" Xiong Jing sensed Ge's thoughts, and could only smile lightly. "Is there a famous person from the Mo family in the school palace, can you help me build a big house?"

"The elders and young of the school palace are in order, regardless of respect and inferiority, and I hope to know it under my feet." Ge said solemnly. "The old servant knows that there is no one in the Mo family, and there is no one who is skilled in miracle skills in the palace.

"Then I'll leave the matter to you. I'm tired, stand down. Xiong Jing couldn't ask anything, so he had to send him away.

"Do as you are told." Ge bowed, bowed his head and bent over.

Although Lantai is a school for the children of the Duke of Chu, it is still not as good as the palace with decoration. When Xiong Jing and Ge were talking, the accompanying slave maid conveniently cleaned up the inside and outside of the room, and the mats, curtains, and quilts in the room were all replaced with the style of the palace.

Leaning on the table, Meimei took a sip of tea, and Xiong Jing began to sketch the next step.

He was not happy to study here for seven years. Although he is young, he is a prince anyway, and with this identity, at least in the territory of Chu State, he is rampant. This is the general policy of building ships first, then doing business, and then building ships after doing business. I don't know what the carpentry technology of this era is, do they make shells first and then bones? And lofting, dimensional accuracy, do they all depend on the experience of craftsmen?

Even if it is shipbuilding, Xiong Jing also found that there are many problems to be solved.

The first one is size. He was accustomed to the metric system in later generations, but in this era, he couldn't find the metric system, and if he couldn't find the metric system, he would make a joke about 'any fifty stones'. In strange times, how can you know how far a meter is? You can't go to the length of the quantum meridian and divide it by one of the forty million. Size is a headache, and measurement is also a problem. He wanted to make a vernier caliper early on, but it required some skilled craftsmen, as well as telescopes, and iron components......

The cup of tea was quickly drunk, and the thin wooden board was full of incomprehensible sentences. When the piece was finished, the servant hurriedly handed over another piece, and then put the full piece into the box marked with the year and month. There were a lot of similar boxes, and they were stacked in a separate room, full.

"Dare to tell you that there are guests visiting." The people who came in bowed.

"Who's visiting?" Xiong Jing was a little strange, he didn't know anyone here.

"Xueyou Zhaoduan, Shentong, Jingfei, Jingque...... Qu Huan, Qu Ren, Qu Yuan, Zhao Zhu, and Zhao Shi came to pay their respects. "The dormitory allocated to the students by the school palace is not large, so the visitors standing at the door can hear Xiong Jing's question, this is not one person, it is a bunch of people.

When I first arrived, there were schoolmen who came to visit, and when I thought of the friends in the three lines, Xiong Jing got up: "Please sons." ”

They were all teenagers who came in, and the leaders were two handsome boys. The group bowed their heads and reported their names. Zhao Zhao, the leader, said: "Shiyun: There are bandit gentlemen, such as cutting and learning. We are rude, and we hope that our son is strange. ”

Xiong Jinggui is a prince, and Zhao is called Zijing, obviously treating him as a classmate. He smiled and said: "Brother Zi is in love, I am not a gentleman, I am just a child with hanging hair, and I dare not be ashamed to say it." ”

In the morning, the group of sons just watched Xiong Jing and Dr. Qu Sui's answer, Shentong thought that Xiong Jing was nothing extraordinary, but it was 'the palace maid temple has a lot of people to teach Xi'er', now Xiong Jing is like an adult with a smile and answers, and his words and demeanor are not half artificial, and everyone is amazed, and he forgot to speak for a while. Fortunately, Qu Ren, who was bent on watching the boat, didn't care whether Xiong Jing was extraordinary, he said: "I saw that Zijing has a boat boat, with a peculiar shape, cloth for clothes, and copper armor for clothes, I don't know if I can see it?" ”

"......" smiled when he heard Qu Ren say that he wanted to see the model of the sailboat, and then heard him say 'cloth for clothes, copper armor for clothes', and his smile became brighter. He then got up, motioned to the servant to pull back the curtain between the living room and the bedroom, and said, "Please take a look." ”

The sailboat was actually a North American schooner, which took a year to make with the help of the temple maiden. For this kind of thing that appeared more than a thousand years later, Qu Ren and others couldn't understand it at all, so there was a saying that 'cloth is clothing, and copper armor is clothing'. But they are not fools, they just watched from afar, and now they finally found some mystery when they looked closely.

"Whoever wears cloth for clothing, does he borrow the wind to walk?" The leader of Zhao Xuan roughly guessed the role of the cloth, and the Warring States did not have sails yet.

"Exactly." Xiong Jing smiled lightly. "The boat travels on the sea, and the wind can go fast."

"The bronze armor is very heavy, do you think it floats in the sea?" Someone else asked.

Copper armor is the copper skin that wraps the bottom of the sailboat below the waterline to prevent the growth of plankton and resist moth. For the ancients more than 2,000 years ago, whether it was to explain the insecticide of copper ions or to explain Archimedes' law of buoyancy, Xiong Jing's mind turned around, and he replied simply: "The copper armor is thin, and the boat can float on the sea." ”

"I have a boat master in Da Chu, and the armor and shield are attached to the boat wall, why is this bronze armor placed under the boat wall?" After all, the sons of Qun are well-informed, and although they don't know what will happen more than a thousand years later, their horizons are broad.

"The boatman walks on the river, and the boat travels on the sea. The sea is dangerous, and I am afraid that something will chisel through the bottom of the ship, and copper armor is required. Xiong Jing accidentally said a lot, and everyone was shocked.

"Dare to ask Zijing, what is in the sea that cuts through the bottom of the ship?" Zhao Xuan, who was closest to him, asked.

"How does Zijing know that there is something in the sea that is chiseled through the bottom of the ship? Do you see it in person? Shentong, who was full of pimples on his forehead, asked, very suspicious.

"The sea is twice as big as the land. There are five creatures on land and ten on the sea. "If you talk about it when you meet for the first time, your reputation will be ruined in the future, and Xiong Jing has to explain in detail." There are insect-eaten trees on the land, and there are also insect-eaten trees in the sea; Wood borers are visible on land, but not in the sea; The cavities on land can be filled, and the cavities in the sea are difficult to fill, so copper armor needs to be placed to prevent moths. This is one, the second is that the copper armor is smooth, placed on the bottom of the ship with low navigation resistance, fast ship speed, naval battles such as car battles, the fast ship wins easily, and the slow ship wins difficult. ”

Regardless of whether you can understand your own modern ancient dialect or not, Xiong Jing explained the role of copper skin in detail. Seeing that what he said was reasonable, Shentong, who wanted to continue to ask, was speechless for a while. Not everyone was single-mindedly provocative, and as soon as he finished speaking, someone else asked: "The sea is bigger, twice as big as the land?" I heard that there is Kyushu in the land, and there are five suits outside Kyushu, and there is Tanggu in the east outside the five suits, and there is quicksand in the west, and there is a fire in the south and a cold mountain in the north, which is for the world. Zijing makes a boat to sail on the sea, do you want to find immortals on the sea? ”

"Looking for immortals?" Xiong Jing smiled. He thought of many ways to make a name for himself, but he forgot that it was not the four-wheeled carriage, not the ballista, not the sailing ship, that shocked the ancients the most, but geography. Knowing this, he should have presented a world map to the king of Chu.

He coughed lightly before saying, "I don't know where the immortals are, I only know that the five suits are fallacious." There is Tang Valley in the east, Tang Valley is the bath of the sun, but between Kyushu and Tang Valley, there are many islands, if you travel for several months, you can see another continent, its breadth is twice that of Kyushu world, it is rumored that Yin people have floated to the sea to cross to the east, I don't know if it is true;

There is a fire in the south, but between Kyushu and the fire, there is a peninsula that is more than 2,000 miles long from north to south, 800 miles wide from east to west, and there are more than 1,000 islands to the south of the peninsula, and the products on it are abundant, which are rare in the world;

There is Hanshan in the north, between Kyushu and Hanshan, there are thousands of miles of grassland, and this Beirong residence is also. To the north of the grassland, there is a thousand miles of ice field, and at the end of the ice field is a cold mountain. The icebergs float in the sea, and the height is ten thousand, and there are white bears and seals. ”

Xiong Jing spoke very quickly, and the geographical knowledge from later generations immediately frightened the princes. After talking about the north, he paused before saying to the west: "The west is surrounded by quicksand, if there is only quicksand in the extreme west, who is Mu Tianzi seeing when he travels west?" ”

"Mu Tianzi traveled west to Kunlun to see the Queen Mother of the West, this immortal also." Zhao replied that he had entered the university and had read the biography of Mu Tianzi.

"Kunlun, the mountains at the end of the quicksand. The Queen Mother of the West is not an immortal, and neither is the Queen of the Western Regions. If the kingdom of the Queen Mother goes two thousand miles to the west, there will be a kingdom of Great Xia; Bactria traveled more than 5,000 miles to the west, and there was the country of Persia; Persia went five thousand miles west to the sea. This sea is surrounded by the continent, called the Mediterranean Sea, which is one or two thousand miles wide from north to south, and nearly 10,000 miles long from east to west. To the north of the sea are Greece, Macedonia, and Rome, and to the south are Egypt and Carthage.

The Kyushu region is only 5,000 miles in radius, and the population is only 20 million. Compared to the world's continents, it is only one-tenth the size and one-tenth of the population. Now the seven heroes stand side by side, the battle is endless, the fight is only 5,000 miles of the east of the blocked land, just like the frog at the bottom of the well as Zhuangzi said, I don't know the breadth of the ocean, the size of the world, it is very ridiculous. ”

Speaking of this, Xiong Jing looked around at the sons of the group, and everyone was stunned.

"With the power of a county, a ship can be built to the sea in the middle of the earth. Overseas may not only be immortals, I see that there is no cotton in all countries, navigation can introduce cotton from India, and Chinese savages can wear cotton clothes for the winter; I see that the corn in all countries is low yield, navigation can introduce the corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes of Dongzhou, this crop can also be planted in the mountains, the output is twice that of corn, the people of the country can be eaten, and the number of people can be multiplied for decades; I see that there are no eight-foot horses in all countries, and the good horses of the Western Continent can be introduced into navigation, and their horses are nearly eight feet high and weigh more than a thousand catties. This horse can be cultivated in the field, can be fought in the field, and the weapon of the country is also ......"

If it comes, it will be safe. Xiong Jing, who felt that he couldn't go back, wanted to build a ship and travel around the world more than 2,000 years ago, but at this time, the monarchs of the Seven Kingdoms were not thinking about gold, but about war, and he could only list the benefits of shipbuilding and trade one by one. Bu Lie didn't know, a column was startled, not to mention cotton, corn sweet potatoes and potatoes are really population multipliers, and Arab horses and Western European mixed breeds are far better than the Chu horses he has seen - if you really want to get a Yanma, put on a saddle, stirrups, and horseshoes, and it is not a dream to cross the Central Plains.

Just by introducing the geography of Eurasia, Xiong Jing and Qun Gongzi were shocked, Xiong Jing was excited to present the world map immediately, maybe the king of Chu would support his shipbuilding and navigation; Qun Gongzi subverted the worldview, so many things need time to digest, and the exchange between the two sides ended quickly.
