Chapter 22: The Cliff of Mingdao Hua (3)

"It's a big fuss." After Zeng Bu received the decree, he couldn't help but sigh. He knew that what happened in Qionglin Yuan would definitely reach the ears and eyes of the Son of Heaven. But I never expected it to be so fast, and the emperor's reaction was also unexpected.

"It's not just the Son of Heaven who is coming, you look at the other side." Lu Huiqing pointed to the north with a straight face, "The news seems to have spread." ”

To the north of Huamigang, across the small lake, is the thoroughfare that comes out of Xinzheng Gate. Originally, this small lake was a barrier, so there was no wall outside. From the road, you can see the interior of Qionglin Garden. Now on the opposite shore of the lake, I don't know how many people are crowded, and at a cursory glance, there are thousands.

"How can there be so many people?!" Zeng Bu asked in surprise.

"Because of the Qionglin feast!"

The Qionglin Banquet, which millions of soldiers and civilians in Tokyo are paying attention to, can alarm the whole city when a good poem comes out, not to mention this gambling game? In the blink of an eye, it was rumored that thousands of people were now on the other side of the lake, waiting to see the stones thrown on the cliff.

"No matter what the outcome is, the loser will become a laughing stock for the rest of his life." Zeng Bu's eyes were deep, staring at Han Gang's side face.

Under the high bridge of the nose, the slightly thin lips are pursed, and it looks extremely resolute. Han Gang probably also understood that he was betting on his life.

‘…… It's up to him to see if he can win the bet. Zeng Bu thought.

……………………

While waiting for the Son of Heaven, the Jinshi downstairs and by the lake had already started to gamble.

Among the Jinshi, there are naturally most people who bet on Yang Hua, and only a few people are betting on Han Gang's unpopularity. Among the top ten, there are a few self-respecting ones who did not participate in the betting, but those who participated in the gambling were all betting on Yang Hui, and only the eighth place Liuguangyu was different.

Liuguangyu's friend persuaded him: "Yuanzhang, look at Murong Wu, he is Han Gang's classmate and confidant, look at his face, does he have half a chance to win?" At the same time, Zhang Hengqu's student, Han Gang knew the Dao, how could he not know the Dao? ”

Liu Guangyu insisted on his own opinion, "The younger brother thinks what Han Yukun said is reasonable, and it is not bad to bet on this unpopularity." ”

But he sneered in his heart, there are stupid people here, what do you do with people's faces? If you have this time, you can take something lighter and heavier and try it out.

The chopsticks and bowls belonging to the officials are inconvenient to throw away, and there is a worry of losing honor at the banquet - just like Han Gang and Yang Hui arguing, they are smiling from beginning to end, and no one is blushing and thick-necked. Not to mention pounding the table and smashing the bowl to increase the momentum.

But Liu Guangyu tried it with a belt hook and a copper coin, and tried several times, but they all landed at the same time.

He didn't mean to share this with others, and he couldn't say that he could win alone, so his face rose. When the time comes, let's see what else those who bet on Yang Hua have to say?

Lian Hengfu, the sixth place in the current department. He glanced at the smug Liuguangyu, and he was also sneering, "This fat man, do you think that he is the only one who has done the verification?" ’

The height of the fall is only one person high, and the weight is not too far behind, even if it falls at the same time, it can't prove anything, not to mention that after Lian Hengfu tried it a few times, he still felt that there was a little subtle difference.

In this case, there is no problem in observing people. Han Gang's statement was based on Zhang Zai's theory, but Murong Wu didn't know anything about it, since this was the case, how could people believe Han Gang?

"Wait to be embarrassed......" Lian Hengfu didn't know who he was talking to.

……………………

The Son of Heaven's car soon arrived, accompanied by hundreds of class straights and chamberlains. I only heard the sound of a mountain calling long live, which came from Xinzheng Gate.

Zeng Bu, Lu Huiqing, Yang Hui, Han Gang and other hundreds of people in the Qionglin banquet all went to the gate of Qionglin Garden to greet each other.

Zhao Ji's car drove all the way to the foot of Huamigang.

When Han Gang and the others were edicted to the top of the building, Zhao Ji turned around from the verandah:

"I just want to see how this gambling game goes, so I don't have to delay the time, let's try it first."

Han Gang and Yang Hui made a fuss on Qionglin Garden, and Zhao Ji was a little annoyed at first after hearing it. The gambling competition at the Qionglin banquet has always been a gambling on wine, poetry, shooting, and pitching, but now it is even compared to throwing stones.

But after listening to the ins and outs, he immediately understood that although today's incident was provoked by Yang Hui first, it was in the hands of Han Gang, and he took advantage of the situation to push Zhang Zai into the Jingyi Bureau.

But no matter how Zhao Ji thought, he felt that how could a pound of iron ball fall to the ground at the same time as ten pounds, no matter how he thought about it. It's just that he threw away the inkstone and the pen, as if they landed at about the same time.

I can't figure it out from the reason, but it can be proved from the experiment, what the result is, Zhao Ji was a little interested, and simply came to Qionglin Yuan to take a look.

Zhao Ji's order was simply incomparable. Under the gaze of the Son of Heaven, the two officials trembled and one picked up the stone, and the other picked up the scale, and then placed the scale on the door-blocking stone.

"Why is that?" Zhao Ji asked strangely, aren't the two of them separated and let go together?

"This is to prevent the timing of letting go from being different before and after, which will affect the outcome at the very end." Han Gang explained to the Son of Heaven, "Even if it is lost by one person, there will still be some slight differences in timing. Only now can it be exempted. ”

"What will happen if that doesn't happen?"

"No, it won't." Han Gang shook his head, "The scales are not tied to the blocking stone, they are separated." If the scale falls slower than the doorway, of course it will widen the distance behind it, and enter the water one after the other - like a horse and a man standing next to each other, but once you run, the distance will gradually widen. If it's just as fast, there won't be a problem, and you can see that the stone and the scale are always stuck together. Unless it is a one-pound weighing stone, the falling speed is faster than that of a thirty-pound door-blocking stone, and the stone is pushed behind, so that it will have an impact. ”

Zhao Ji shook his head, of course this is impossible.

This is Han Gang's design for the experiment, otherwise the possibility of problems is too great. At a height of about fifty meters, almost four seconds. There was a delay of a few tenths of a second in the time it was released, and by the time it fell into the water, it was a difference of seven or eight meters. That's a slap in the face for himself, how could Han Gang do it?!

And this method also has another advantage, that is, the wind resistance of the scale is blocked, and the scale with small force will always stick to the stone, and there will be no accidents.

Han Gang proposed the steps of the experiment in this way, and after explaining two sentences, even Yang Hui could no longer object.

If it is the other way around, with the scales at the bottom and the door blocking stone at the top, Yang Hua will definitely oppose it to the end. But now that the scales are placed on the blocking stone, they are neither tied nor sticky, if Yang Hui is against it, it will make him appear weak-hearted, and it will be difficult to say a reason.

You can't say anything about Sun Simiao's spell in front of the Son of Heaven and so many colleagues, as well as the new science and technology jinshi. Then he will become the laughing stock of the court. What's more, there is no need to be afraid of anything, when he came upstairs, Lin Shenhe whispered to him that everything was relieved.

Everyone's attention was refocused on the little man holding the stone and the scale. I saw him lean out of the railing with trembling hands, and as soon as he put his hands down, the stones and scales fell straight down.

Zhao Ji immediately leaned on the railing and looked down.

With a bang, I saw the water splash set off the old high.

First, there was a commotion below, and it was too noisy to hear clearly. Then Tong Guan, who stayed below, ran up and said to the Son of Heaven and the officials: "At the same time! Meantime! It did fall at the same time! ”

As soon as the results came out, everyone's eyes looked at Yang Hui.

I have to say that Yang Hui has the performance of an important minister of the country, and he has already lost, but his face is only slightly pale.

And Han Gang also knew that this experiment really had to be more serious, but he still said that there were always people with hard mouths.

I only heard Yang Hua say: "This must be Han Gang's trick to deceive Shengcong, otherwise why do you have to put the scale on the stone?" Please also make an order to separate the two things and try again. ”

Han Gang sneered, and he knew that someone couldn't afford to lose. He turned his head to the two officials and said, "Please spread your hands out." ”

Yang Hui and Lin Shenhe's faces changed greatly, but in front of the Son of Heaven, they could only watch the two little officials spread their hands, and there were blood stains on them.

Zhao Ji's pupils shrank, and he asked in a deep voice, "What is this?!" ”

Lin Shenhe's face turned pale, and the two Qiong Lin Yuan also came over and asked sharply, "What is this!?" ”

"I don't know if it's black dog blood or rooster blood? It's all smeared with blood, what other spells are there?! Han Gang Ha laughed, he ignored Yang Hui, turned to Zhao Ji and said: "Actually, this experiment, the minister has never done it, and he doesn't need to do it at all, just think about it from the reason!" ”

"What do you mean by that?!" Zhao Ji asked in surprise, and the officials were also in a commotion.

In that case, why bother?!

Yang Hui didn't believe it, but Han Gang was confident, and his smile was full of confidence.

Since it was said above that this is the truth, there is naturally a means of proving it through logical methods. How could Han Gang forget the content in junior high school physics?

Now that Yang Hui has reacted, if he wants to change the experimental method, Han Gang will never agree. No matter what experiment is used, there will be errors. Idealized experiments can only come out of ideals. If you really separate the doorstone and the weighing stone and throw it down, the error caused by various factors must be indispensable, and it is almost impossible to land at the same time.

You must use theory to give Yang Hua the last blow!

"There is a fast train that can drive from Tokyo to Luoyang in one day. There is also a slow train that takes three days to get from Tokyo to Luoyang. Han Gang's eyes swept away, and everyone listened attentively, "What would happen if the fast train and the slow train were tied together with ropes?!" ”

"Of course, the fast train pulls the slow car away!" Zhao Ji said immediately.

"Your Majesty!" Han Gang praised and said, "No matter what, it must be slower than the fast car, faster than the slow car!" ”

Zhao Ji nodded: "That's the truth!" ”

The Son of Heaven nodded in agreement, Yang Hui thought for a while, and also nodded. There is no opposition from the people around, how can this truth be wrong?

Han Gang smiled: "The same reason. According to Mr. Yang, the heavier the heavier, the faster it falls, and the lighter it is, the slower. Then, if you tie up the light and heavy objects, that is, tie up the doorstone and the weighing stone with a rope and throw it down, then the falling speed should be slower than the doorway stone and faster than the weighing stone. Isn't that the truth? ”

Han Gang asked Yang Huiqing, and Lu Huiqing gave a slight high-five on the side, and suddenly said to himself: "I see." ”

And Yang Hui didn't dare to answer, he knew that there must be a trap in Han Gang's words, but he couldn't think of where the trap was. Zhao Ji, who couldn't wait, helped him answer: "That's right...... But so what? ”

Han Gang raised his voice and asked sharply: "So the minister just wants to ask." Since Mr. Yang said that heavy objects fall faster than light objects, then the door-blocking stone and the weighing stone weigh thirty-one pounds after being tied up, why is it slower than the thirty-pound door-blocking stone? …… It should be fast! ”

Silence.

Indeed, it should be fast......

Seeing Yang Hui's face turn pale, Han Gang sneered.

First use the evidence as the test, and then use the reasoning to prove it. Just ask, who can refute it?!
