Chapter 92: Great Kyushu

Half an hour later, the hall in the palace was used to receive VIPs. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The deputy priest of the school palace, Zou Zheng, seems to be a more funny and casual person, he is responsible for entertaining Chang Anjun, arranging for the servant to send cool slurry water, and then said with a smile: "Thank you Chang Anjun for the gift, this blackboard chalk thing is the best gift that the Jixia School Palace has ever received......"

Jixia School Palace is famous all over the world, in order to rub off on the fame, or to get along with the School Palace, there have been many princes in the past who have contributed money and property to fund. But in Mingyue's opinion, as an official and privately hosted institution of the Qi State, no matter how much others subsidize it, can it be more than the wealthy Qi royal family? If you have more palaces, you may not appreciate them, and if you have less, you will be stingy, so why bother?

You must know that the living conditions of the gentlemen are not comparable to those of the poor teachers of later generations. The kings of Qi in the past dynasties set up the title of "Jixia Doctor" for the school palace, and all scholars who have been recognized by the Jixia to occupy a place in the school palace can get a share of the Lu, as for those who are outstanding, they can enter the hall and enter the room, as the adviser of the king of Qi, and get countless rewards.

The most typical example is Tian Piao, 20 years ago, as a gentleman, although he is not a official, he has thousands of kinds of servants, and he is richer than being an official. Mr. Jixia's rich life can be seen, otherwise there would be no way to take dozens or hundreds of disciples to go abroad to lecture and visit, Confucius traveled around the world is shabby, and he will not go back and forth.

So what kind of gift can make the gentlemen of Jixia grateful, Mingyue has thought about it carefully. He thought of the blackboard and chalk that were indispensable in any school in later generations. Gongsun Long helped him make free advertising, this thing is very low-cost, and it can be loved by teachers and students, so he has a closer relationship with all schools under the Jixia, why not?

But what Mingyue didn't expect was that the popularity of blackboard and chalk was even more than he imagined!

As soon as he thought of Fang Cai's situation, Zou Zheng was overjoyed: "As soon as Gongzi Fu came to Jixia, he gave the sacrificial wine a big problem!" “

Mingyue responded: "It's my fault, I didn't bring more ...... before"

It turned out that after he announced that he was going to send ten blackboards and some chalk to Jixia Xuegong, there was a burst of cheers below. The gentlemen, who had been suffering from the lack of good tools to teach the lessons, fell in love with it when they saw it, and almost robbed it regardless of Sven.

It's still Xunzi's face that makes them want to make noise, but how to divide these blackboards is really a problem, fortunately, Mingyue didn't say which one to give it to, this kind of offending thing should be handed over to the school palace to do it.

So at this moment, Gongsun Long is still arguing with the Mo family on the debate altar, while Xunzi is busy distributing blackboards to the various factions under the Jixia.

Although Jixia is known as "nine streams and ten families", but in fact, subdivided, each major faction has internal divisions, counting as many as hundreds, and now there are still forty or fifty people in the position of Jixia doctors. Xunzi was already in a dilemma when he dealt with them, and the matter of entertaining Chang'anjun had to be handed over to Zou Zheng.

It's a pity that the "Tian Jia" dressed as a man disappeared, probably because she was afraid that someone would find out her identity and quietly left, right?

Thinking like this, Mingyue looked at the room full of bamboo slips, and chatted with Zou Zheng without a word, his main purpose today was Xunzi, but he didn't expect to meet Zou Zheng, one of the "Three Zou" of Qi State.

There are three Zou in the Qi State, and Zou Ji, a beautiful man who appeared in middle school Chinese textbooks, is one of them, this person is a powerful minister of Qi State, and he has been hostile to the sacrificial wine of the Jixia School Palace.

After Zou Ji, there is Zou Yan, this person is the representative of the Yin and Yang family, the founder of the Five Elements Theory, he was already famous in Jixia when he was young, and he was given the title of "Talking about Tianyan" because of his good words about the world. Later, King Min of Qi went against the grain, and Mr. Jixia was scattered, and Zou Yan chose to go to the Yan Kingdom where the sun was rising at that time, and it is said that King Yan Zhao personally swept the floor for him with a broom, afraid that the dust would fall on him, and later asked to be listed as Zou Yan's disciple and built a Jieshi Palace for him, taking him as a teacher, and letting him teach knowledge in Yan Kingdom.

It was Zou Yan's heyday, and many Yan Fang warlocks were influenced by his theory of yin and yang and the five elements, and began to make up for the theoretical foundation that had been lacking, and began to swagger. It's a pity that Zou Yan was later suspected by King Yan Hui, and he was imprisoned for a time, so he could only return to Qi State. He is now nearly seventy years old, and he is the oldest in Mr. Jixia, but seeing that Xunzi, a junior, will take care of Jixia in an orderly manner, Zou Yan is also idle, and he retires in his hometown, only occasionally as a consultant to King Qi.

And Zou Zheng, Zou Yan's nephew, inherited Zou Yan's knowledge and status, and now he is also the deputy sacrificial wine of Jixia School Palace.

So in front of Zou Zheng, Mingyue didn't say much about his admiration for Mr. Zou Yan, and also inquired about the knowledge of the Yin and Yang family, especially their "Great Kyushu Doctrine", Mingyue was particularly curious.

With a good impression of Chang'anjun, Zou Zheng also talked eloquently: "Gongzi should know that Confucian rumors say that after Dayu ruled the water, the world was divided into Hebei, Yan, Qing, Xu, Yang, Jing, Henan, Liang, Yongjiuzhou, that is, all the land known to the world, called China." However, Uncle Jia believes that the land of China is only one-eighty-one of the world! ”

Mingyue blinked: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Zou Zheng talked loudly: "The so-called Xia Yu Kyushu is actually just a small Kyushu, and the nine places are merged into a central state, which is China, also known as Chixian Shenzhou, but the world is not gone here." Outside of China, there are eight places like Chixian Shenzhou, plus China, this is Central Kyushu. Chukyushu is surrounded by oceans, and people and animals cannot communicate with other states, so it is like an independent area. And the nine central states have been merged into one big state, and the big states are surrounded by the Great Ying Sea, which is actually the time of the heaven and earth that we see......"

Mingyue heard that Zou Yan's theory is that the world is far bigger than the world can imagine, and he thinks that the Kyushu that is said to be demarcated by Xia Yu is actually a "small Kyushu", and the entire land of China is "Middle Kyushu", and the entire earth is a "big Kyushu", since the time of heaven and earth is the boundary between "big Kyushu", then Zou Yan's so-called whole world, naturally including places outside the earth, is almost the solar system......

Although it has its limitations, this imagination is amazing enough, at least in some places, Zou Yan has already thought in the right direction.

Seeing Mingyue silently, Zou Zheng didn't think it was strange, this was a normal reaction after hearing this doctrine for the first time, so he smiled and said: "People who don't know Uncle Jia often think that his words are grand and absurd and unreasonable, but in fact, this is because of his knowledge. He believes that to do knowledge, we must start with the verification of the smallest things, and then generalize to the big things, so as to reach the boundless, so as to be comprehensive. “

It's a pity that when the prince first sees Zou Yan's doctrine, he often feels surprised and thinks about it, but later thinks that it is too grand and too far from reality to be implemented......

Unexpectedly, Mingyue slapped her hands and praised: "This is exquisite, it's really eye-opening!" I really want to see the world outside Kyushu that Zou Zi said, and even the world beyond the Great Ying Sea, but ......"

Zou Zheng was in good spirits, but it seemed that Chang Anjun believed in the words of the Great Kyushu, so he asked with a smile: "But what?" ”

Mingyue looked at the blackboard that had been moved in, picked up the chalk, and wrote the word "state" on it, the script of the Seven Kingdoms in this era has been a little different, he can only Zhao Seal, fortunately, the difference between Zhao Seal and Qi Seal is not very big, and Zou Zheng can also understand it.

"Maybe I'm stupid, and I can't tell the difference between the three states, big and small, can I do this?"

Mingyue said as she added three points of water next to the "state".

"Since there is a small Beihai Sea in the middle, can you call a medium-sized state like Chixian Shenzhou a continent?"
