Chapter 7 (II)
"That's right, the undead."
found a place to sit down again, and Ying Peng explained in detail: He came to the imperial capital with a goal.
"At present, the calendar used by the imperial court is the 'time calendar', which was revised by Guo Songjing Guo Taishi five hundred years ago, and the stars have changed, and now, it is difficult to match the number of days and moons."
“…… Can you speak human language? ”
Looking at Yun Chongbo in amazement, Ying Peng said, "...... You don't understand? ”
Sighing again and again, Ying Peng felt that those who were generals in ancient times, those who did not understand astronomy and geography could not be generals, and Yun Chongbo was now a famous general in the world, and he would not know astronomy, which was really strange.
“…… Tell you, I now fully believe that you are Old Man Zhang's apprentice, you master and apprentice are the same, all of them have nothing to do! ”
After explaining again, Yun Chongbo finally understood that Guo Songjing was the chief of the Qin Tianjian hundreds of years ago, and presided over the revision and remeasurement of the calendar, which was the "Chronological Calendar", which is still used today.
"This calendar was naturally the best at the beginning, but in the past five hundred years, there have been many new breakthroughs in measurement technology, instrument manufacturing, etc., and it is necessary to revise it again."
Since childhood, he has been very interested in astronomy, and in Wurong, Ying Peng was able to learn different schools of astronomical knowledge from Da Shi, Body Poison, Daqin and other places.
"This is also another thing I want to suggest to Qin Tianjian this time."
has a high respect for the accumulation and inheritance of the Great Xia Qin Heavenly Prison for thousands of years, and Ying Peng can casually cite a few examples.
"For example, if the number of the heavens is measured at three hundred and sixty-five and two or five points, it is obviously stronger than the Great Qin Study, which is only measured at three hundred and sixty points."
But the problem is that after the collision of overseas families, each with its own shortcomings and strengths, and complementing each other, it will show more and more advantages over the unchanged Daxia calendar.
"The push of synodic hope, the calculation of the season...... The most serious one, I once cut off the New Year's Festival by the wrong day. ”
With a lot of ideas, Ying Peng came to Dijing and tried to communicate with Qin Tianjian, but it was not ideal.
"They don't believe me! Chongling Station Director is okay, but he can still listen to me a few words in a friendly manner, Yang Taishi Ling...... That's just a big stick to beat me out! ”
Qin Tianjian is a court institution established since the time of Emperor Xuanyuan, with the "Taishi Ling" as the positive, with the "Lingtai Chief" as the pay, under the calculation, testing, missing three bureaus, the current Taishi Ling Yang Gongchang, Lingtai Chang Chongyu Village, one is the founder of Confucianism, one is the accumulation of years of cadres, although the two positions are a little less powerful, but also serious five or six officials. If Ying Peng hadn't had the identity of "Flying Immortals of the East China Sea", he would definitely not have seen the two of them.
"It's obvious that it's in vain, and in a few words, Yang Ling got angry and blasted me out directly!"
It is not good to be a teacher, but Ying Peng is also a persistent person, if he can't do it once, he will come to the door again and again, making the other party helpless.
"But...... What can you expect me to help? ”
I really don't know why Ying Peng asked himself for help, no matter how you look at it, what is needed for this matter is not a "thug" but a "relationship", and if you can find a few high-grade masters to reconcile a few words, it will be more effective than yourself.
"yes, I think you're obviously useless......"
said very calmly that he did think that Yun Chongbo was "useless", but this was Zhang Yuankong's explanation before he came.
"Master said that most of the time this thing will not go well...... If you get stuck, find the undead and ask him for help! ”
"That old man, it's really ......"
Sitting down, Yun Chongbo muttered in his mouth, but he knew in his heart that he would have to help with this favor.
Although Yun Chongbo is contemptuous of Zhang Yuankong, he really has a very high respect and good impression, not to mention that Zhang Yuankong's promise on the coast of the East China Sea is not empty words: in the past few months, the communication between Taiping Dao and the Buddhist and Taoist forces in various places has become much smoother, and there has been considerable convenience in terms of personnel, materials, and intelligence.
(But...... What the hell does he want me to help? Do you want me to take out the princely style and order Qin Tianjian to "obey the order"!? )
"I said, let's discuss it first, how did you get blown out!"
Speaking of which, it's simple, when Ying Peng first went to visit, the atmosphere was actually quite good.
"At that time, I handed Master's name and stabbed it in, and then it was Chongtai Chang who received me."
Chongyucun is a technical official in his forties, and his entire resume has stayed in the Qintianjian since the Chinese style of conferred on him. In the process of listening to Ying Peng's intentions, he showed quite patience and kindness, but sometimes laughed bitterly a few times, muttering something strange like "It's a Minke ...... again", which is nothing.
After Ying Peng finished speaking, Chongyu Village had also finished a shorthand, and after Ying Peng read it, he politely said that he was very grateful to his brother for his care for Qin Tianjian, this thing is very important, and we will meet the technical chief of the three bureaus later to discuss it together. During this process, he always maintained a kind smile.
"But...... This is clearly coping! ”
“…… Oh, yes! ”
Even if he didn't have Yun Chongbo's experience, Ying Peng was enough to hear the other party's coping meaning, but he was mentally prepared, he said that what he said was not a fantasy, and it could be experimented.
For example, if the Gui watch used to measure the shadow of the sun in the Qin Tianjian is redesigned according to the principle mentioned by Ying Peng, more accurate results can be obtained, so as long as it is verified and what is wrong, it can be done.
"As a result, this request stabbed the hornet's nest."
His face was immediately very embarrassed, and Chongyu Village asked Ying Peng, do you know who presided over the establishment of that Guibiao?
"That's the table that Guo Songjing personally calculated and set up by Lord Guo!"
"Wait, you wait."
Stopping Ying Peng's narration, Yun Chongbo felt quite confused, an instrument established five hundred years ago has been used to this day, and it is still carefully offered as a divine object?
"Because you really don't know how to learn...... Because, that is Guo Songjing's handmade watch! ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Guo Songjing.
…… If there is a god in the Qin Heavenly Prison, it is him.
Active 500 years ago, Ben was just one of the most ordinary staff members in the Qin Heavenly Prison, but somehow, at the age of forty, he suddenly opened his mind, and within a few years read through the prison collection and the observation data accumulated over thousands of years. Subsequently, it can be used flexibly to create a series of miracles. That even once alarmed many Confucian virtues, under questioning, they could only sigh and say that this may really be born with Su Hui, and it was finally opened.
During these 30 years, he planned to build a new viewing platform, and remade the four major vessels of Taichung table, instrument, image, and leak - all of which were extremely beautiful and far better than the past, and presided over the formulation of a new calendar, calculating the essence and leaving nothing to lose. Until his death at the age of seventy-five, he still insisted on observing and recording in the sundial room every day. He was single, and he had no children after his development, but after his death, he asked to be buried in the Qintian Prison, which was a very unruly request, but it was unanimously approved by all the people in the Qintianjian at that time, and was approved by exception.
…… To this day, Guo Songjing's portrait is still hung in the four most important places in the Qin Heavenly Prison. And although 500 years have passed, the more than 100 people in the Qin Heavenly Prison, from Shi Ling to the walking, still pay great respect to the portrait.
"So, when I said that, it annoyed them immediately."
"But ......"
After thinking about it, Yun Chongbo still felt that something was wrong, even if Guo Songjing used to be a god-like figure, but shouldn't a place like Qin Tianjian always pursue "the most accurate" rather than "the most traditional"? Besides, Ying Peng also said very clearly, is he willing to "test it into reality", or is the experimental scheme he proposed too complicated and expensive, or is it necessary to destroy some important equipment first?
"Neither...... Actually, I guess I said the wrong thing first. ”
Until Ying Peng proposed that it could be "tested with facts", the negotiations between the two sides were actually still maintained on the passable line, but in order to enhance his persuasiveness, Ying Peng made a big mistake.
"I explained to them why this measurement was more accurate, and then I told them how I did it, and they told me that the algorithm itself was wrong."
Then, Ying Peng said that this algorithm is correct, this is what he learned from Yiren this year, and it can best simulate the calculation method of the heavenly dome.
"In short, you don't understand, that is, the sky is a drum, and the picture is flat, to represent the sky of the drum on the flat map, you have to go through some special conversion."
…… Outcome.
"Yiren, you say the algorithm of Yiren?"
Furious, Duke Yang shot the case, angrily reprimanded Ying Peng for his intention to "change Xia with Yi", it was really "heartbroken", his emotions were so excited, despite Chongyu Village's attempt to reconcile, Ying Peng could only watch the atmosphere become more and more intensified, and when Duke Yang finally figured out that his intention also included wanting to persuade Qin Tianjian to introduce a new overseas law, after checking each other, he simply brushed his sleeves away, leaving only the angry decision.
"Yucun, you don't have to persuade me anymore, this is where the righteousness of etiquette lies...... It is better to make Great Xia have no good calendar than to make the imperial court practice all kinds of laws! ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I said, Brother Ying, you are really ......"
Not long after Ying Peng handed the thorn into the gatehouse, he saw a middle-aged official trotting out all the way, and before anyone arrived, he began to complain, and his tone was quite easy-going and affectionate.
"Chief Chongtai, this is Senior Brother Huaping, who only came to Beijing, and has admired Qin Tianjian for a long time, so I want to open my eyes with him."
This is also the method discussed by the two yesterday, no matter what, Yun Chongbo is always the "anti-thief leader", even if everyone in Beijing is pretending to be deaf and dumb now, but he wants to show the carriage and horses to run to the government to do things, it is too deceitful. It must be known that Huahuaqiaozi carries people, and others have already given face to Zuyun, how can he not return the courtesy?
"Oh, it turned out to be Brother Hua, long Yang, long Yang!"
clapped his hands affectionately, and the person who came said that it was no wonder that the magpie outside his window kept calling in the morning, and it turned out to be a distinguished guest.
"Let's go, let's go to my brother's place and sit down, let's make a pot of tea, talk, top white tea!"
This person really has the ability to be self-cooked, and without saying a few words, he mixed up like an old friend for many years. He took the two of them all the way, Yun Chongbo walked in his right hand, looking at the side of this person and just stunned, no matter what, he couldn't imagine that this was actually the number two person in the Qin Heavenly Prison now, the Lingtai chief of the five pins of food, and the Chongyu Village Chongda!
(This guy...... If one day you can't do it in Qintianjian, you will definitely be a good hand when you come out to run the rivers and lakes! )
