There are not too many people who came to attend the unveiling ceremony of the Imperial Gewu Academy, except for Zhu Youxiao, only Wei Guangwei came to the cabinet, and then Li Zhizao and others, and the rest are all missionaries in the empire. Although there were not many people, there were nearly 100 people here, and Zhu Youxiao's personal participation had already proved that the Imperial Gewu Academy was compelling.

In order for Zhu Youxiao to participate in the unveiling ceremony safely, the security measures are in place. The outermost security of the Imperial Gewu Academy is in charge of the Jinyi Guard, the security in the Imperial Gewu Academy is in charge of the East Factory, and as for Zhu Youxiao's personal guards, they are composed of the Inner Court Guards, and the Inner Court Guards are composed of Wu Eunuchs and Janissary Women.

The reason why Zhu Youxiao must hold this unveiling ceremony is only to promote the Imperial Gewu Academy and attract more young students from the empire to study at the Imperial Gewu Academy.

Zhu Youxiao, as the dean of the Imperial Academy and the most noble person now, was the first to speak on stage.

"Although the enrollment of the Imperial Gewu Academy will not be until September this year, today is the day when the Imperial Gewu Academy was officially established. The reason why I want to establish the Imperial Gewu Academy is that I want to truly realize the Book of Rites? The Eight Purposes of the University. Zhu Youxiao explained.

"The Book of Rites? The University records that 'knowledge is in the object, and the object is then known.' I think that Gewu is to explore the truth of things and correct people's behavior, things have their reasons, they are really exquisite, big and Yuanhui, small and grass and trees, similar to their temperament, levy their likes and dislikes, and push their constant changes, which is for Gewu, that is, what Westerners call science. Zhu Youxiao continued to explain. In this explanation, Zhu Youxiao directly stole Fang Yizhi's "Science of Quality Measurement", and then extended it a little bit.

"Zhu Wengong once said that Gewu is 'exhaustively studying the truth of things, so that the intellect is extremely accessible.'" The purpose of my establishment of the Gewu Academy is to exhaustively study the truth of things, so that the intellect can reach the extreme. Just as we once thought that the world was round and the earth was round, but in the Age of Discovery, we found that the earth was round and the sky was endless, so why can't we fall down when we stand on this ball? This is why we need to exhaustively study things; It's like we used to think that the earth was the center of the universe, but now we find that the moon revolves around the earth, and the earth revolves around the sun. Why is this happening? This is also the reason we have to exhaustively investigate......" Zhu Youxiao said.

……

The unveiling ceremony was very simple, and it took only an hour. After attending the unveiling ceremony, it is time to visit the Imperial Gewu Academy. The Imperial Gewu Academy was personally planned by Zhu Youxiao, and he naturally became a guide to introduce the Imperial Gewu Academy to everyone.

In this era, the Imperial Academy of Physics was temporarily divided into three departments: the Department of Mathematics, the Department of Physics, and the Department of Astronomy. Chemistry is not a specialized science for the time being, and Zhu Youxiao has not set up this department for the time being.

In the Imperial Gewu Academy, the teaching buildings, laboratory buildings, libraries, dormitory buildings, etc. are relatively complete, and in the Imperial Gewu Academy, Zhu Youxiao also built a villa area, which is specially provided for the faculty and staff to live.

The last visit is the villa area. Zhu Youxiao pointed to the buildings with Chinese characteristics and said: "This is a villa area, which is a ...... for academicians of the Academy of Sciences to live in."

Before Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, a gunshot suddenly rang out. Zhu Youxiao fell in response, and the entire crowd suddenly fell into a panic.

"Escort, escort ......," Li Yongzhen, Wang Liqian and others shouted loudly. Before the words of the two fell, the palace guards quickly surrounded Zhu Youxiao in the middle.

"Your Majesty......" Wang Liqian shouted anxiously.

Zhu Youxiao only felt a pain in his chest, and he didn't know what the injury was, at least it didn't seem to be bleeding now, but he didn't dare to stay here for a long time, he immediately ordered: "Go back to the palace, go back to the palace immediately." ”

"No." Wang Liqian saw that Zhu Youxiao could still speak, and a big stone in his heart finally let go.

"Someone, escort His Majesty back to the palace." Wang Liqian commanded. The palace guards quickly and tightly protected Zhu Youxiao in the center, and at this time, even if they used machine guns, they could not threaten Zhu Youxiao.

"Only the assassins are captured, and the rest are put back. It has nothing to do with them. Zhu Youxiao commanded. The Gewu Academy that he had managed to get up with great difficulty couldn't be abolished because of this incident.

"No."

At this time, all the people present were controlled by Dongchang, and these people who came to participate in the Imperial Gewu Academy were also completely stunned. The assassination of the emperor is definitely the headline of the news in any era, and in this era, it is not only the headline of the news, but also the thing that countless people want to lose their heads.

"How is Your Majesty?" Wei Guangwei pulled Li Yongzhen and asked anxiously.

"How do we know?" Li Yongzhen shook off Wei Guangwei and said, "Your Majesty is auspicious, you will definitely be fine." ”

Li Yongzhen also stood a little closer to Zhu Youxiao than Wei Guangwei, after the palace guards surrounded Zhu Youxiao, Li Yongzhen was also isolated outside, and he didn't know Zhu Youxiao's situation, but he was much more nervous than Wei Guangwei at this time.

Jinyiwei and all the people in Dongchang are very nervous at this time, the emperor's assassination, they are the first to be responsible, Zhu Youxiao has an order, all the people here will be removed from their posts and investigated, and they will lose their heads. Especially Li Yongzhen and Tian Ergeng, the emperor was assassinated, and they bore unshirkable responsibility. Relatively speaking, Li Yongzhen's responsibility is heavier, and the security he is responsible for is within the Gewu Academy.

But in fact, there were only two Assassins in the Gewu Academy, and they committed suicide after the assassination, and Li Yongzhen only got the Assassin's body.

The Imperial Gewu Academy was an hour away from the Imperial Palace, and the people along the way didn't know what was going on at all, only to see Zhu Youxiao's Luan driving running wildly all the way, and it seemed that something big had happened.

In this assassination, Zhu Youxiao realized that the time had come for the bayonet to be bloody between him and the vassal king, and he decided to use this assassination to perform a scene and completely stand on the moral high ground.

"It is rumored that Chen Shigong and Deng Yuhan will enter the palace immediately." Zhu Youxiao said.

"No."

"The decree ordered Lu Xiangsheng to block the Nine Gates, and the decree ordered the Jingshi Governor's Mansion and Liaodong to be under martial law to prevent the enemy's surprise attack." Zhu Youxiao made an order.

"No. Is Niangniang going to report safety? Wang Liqian asked.

"Let's just say that I was assassinated." Zhu Youxiao thought for a while and said. At this time, Zhu Youxiao had already determined that the body armor had worked, and the bullet had not penetrated the body armor. But Zhu Youxiao didn't want to expose the news that he was not injured for the time being, and he wanted to take the opportunity to completely eliminate the power of the feudal kings in Beijing.

"No."
