Chapter 223: Temporary Evasion
Zhao Liu left temporarily, and the atmosphere in the banquet cooled down slightly, probably because he was tired of dancing just now, or tired of playing, "It's too late just now, I'll introduce you now." Luo Yin pulled Li Chen to introduce the others.
'Ladies and gentlemen, this is Li Chen. The drunken red dust you drink is Brother Li's exclusive brew. Just now, because he was too high, Li Chen had just arrived, these people had already arrived, Luo Yin didn't have time to introduce Li Chen, and now he was officially introduced.
'A certain family is Li Chen, Li Thirteen. I don't have any special skills, I can't write poetry, and I don't know how to draw. I'm better at brewing wine and stir-frying, so you can give me some comments. ’
'The wine is good, but it's too strong. You can't drink too much, and your head will shake if you drink too much. A young man with a slightly white complexion and a good temperament said, seeing that he was older than Luo Yin.
'This is my brother, Luo Qing, the seventh in the family. The other Luo Shi didn't come. Luo Yin introduced, "The strength is arithmetic, and he is the most proficient in arithmetic." Li Chen didn't know that Luo Yin and the two brothers in his clan were called Sanluo because of their poetry and writing. It's just that the only one who really left a name in history is Luo Yin.
"This is a Ping Taoist, I like alchemy the most, I said Lao Ping, don't you be refining any Dan, look at you like this." Luo Yin shook his head, this Pingdao person, he locked his life is alchemy, and he worshiped his family business for alchemy. Strictly speaking, he is not a Taoist priest, but also a scholar, only because he likes alchemy and despairs of his career, he will show himself as a Taoist priest.
This is Gundam. Luo Yin pointed to another person, who was about the same age as Luo Yin, but Li Chen felt that this person seemed to have seen it, "Excuse me, who are you, that high seed." Li Chen looked at it for a long time, and finally saw some doorway, Gao Chong, the Gao Dong who sold the silt to him, was very similar to him.
'It's my brother. The young man replied. Takashi and Gundam are brothers. The Gao family is also a family of craftsmen, although they are not at the craftsman level, but they have a good craft from generation to generation. It's just that this is not the right way after all, 'I'm sorry for my brother, he has put all his hopes on me, but I really didn't expect to take the exam. ’
'Imperial examination, what's the use of taking the exam. Can you really find out the talent by testing those things? The other one was not introduced, and he was dissatisfied, "In my opinion, it is useless to take those tests." ’
'This is Huang Tiansheng, and his hobby is astronomical astrology. Luo Yin introduced the last one, Huang Tiansheng... It's a good name, and I naturally like astronomy, and I'm really happy. But this astrology? Isn't it a forbidden technique? Only the royal family can learn, and the folk are not unable to learn.
'Isn't this astronomy forbidden?' The imperial court did not order a ban? ''Forbidden arts?'' No, I haven't heard of it, and I haven't taken care of it. Luo Yin said in surprise.
Li Chen is half right and half wrong. There are forbidden arts, but it depends on the dynasty. In ancient China, this astronomical astrology was most developed in the Tang Dynasty. The Tang court did not prohibit the people from studying astrology, but only stipulated that the court was responsible for astronomical and astronomical officials, and it was forbidden to have any dealings with courtiers.
In folk words, learning astrology is not forbidden, so this astrology reached its peak in the Tang Dynasty, because there was a foundation for the predecessors, and this astrology reached its peak in the Tang Dynasty.
To be honest, it is a good thing for Li Chen, but it is a tragedy for the development of astronomy in China as a whole. After the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty began to control the study of astrology among the people, stipulating that all astronomers must be under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, otherwise they would be exiled, which curbed the development of astronomy.
Then the Mongols came, and everything came back to square one. In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Chongba ordered the people to prohibit the study of astrology, and completely included astronomy in the officials. This led to the decline of Chinese astronomy, and it was not until the late Ming Dynasty and the introduction of Western astronomy that it began to develop again. It's just that before there was time to make any moves, the Ming Dynasty died.
After the Qing Dynasty. Because the Qing court found that Westerners did not believe in this set at all, and the achievements of Western astronomy had long surpassed that of China, they were open to learning again.
It's just that at that time, it was completely based on Western astronomy, and the Chinese themselves had to be closed for hundreds of years and far behind the world.
'That's it.' After knowing that astronomy was not banned, Li Chen began to think about whether to teach the children astronomy, and he was thinking about his poor knowledge of astrophysics. It's just that he thinks it's really useless, and how can he tell people how black holes absorb light, how the sun heats up, and what light years are.
Let's build an astronomical telescope first. Don't think about those, let's build a telescope first, anyway, now there is transparent glass, it's a problem of curvature, it seems that there is a telescope called a reflective telescope, which should be thought about.
As for the use of astronomy, he couldn't remember, the only thing that came to mind was that he could know the location by stargazing. Positioning is carried out by observing celestial bodies. This is the basis of navigation, otherwise the sea is so big, there is no reference, how will the crew know where they are.
Astronomy had to be vigorously developed, and there was astrogazing at sea in order to be able to cross the sea, to cross, and not to go along the land, as in ordinary navigation.
I don't know how Zheng He drove to the New World in the first place. Later scholars proved that a fleet arrived, and Zheng Hebao's ship once arrived in the Americas. Without taking advantage of the status of the stars, Li Chen was very curious about how they got there.
After the introduction, the atmosphere in the banquet turned warm again, but at this time, the wine was almost drunk, the dishes were finished, and it was almost time to disperse. Li Chen's only surprise was that there was still drunk Hongchen left, and then he was all hugged back by Luo Yin.
Li Chen was the last to go, but he suddenly thought that he came today to discuss something with Zhao Liu, but Zhao Liu suddenly left the table during the banquet, and he forgot about it.
Thanks to Zhao Liudefu, now the troupe has enough manpower, and Li Chen has rehearsed two plays, one is the Three Kingdoms and the other is the West Chamber. It's just that he has other things to discuss with Zhao Liu.
"Mrs. Zhao, but there is something urgent. Li Chen asked the housekeeper if the lady in charge was at home,
Under the guidance of the housekeeper, Li Chen came to Zhao Liude's study, and Zhao Duanduan was lying on the table very unimpressively, looking distressed. Li Chen asked.
Is the feast over?' It's too rude. Zhao Liuxian apologized, "It's okay, it just so happens that everyone is having fun and going back." Li Chen conveyed that Zhao Liu had left the table suddenly, and everyone understood and didn't mind the situation, so he continued to ask Zhao Liu if there was anything distressing.
Say it and let Li be happy. 'Poof, even if Zhao Liu was in a bad mood, he was amused by Li Chen, "Li Jun is a funny person." ’
It's just that Li Jun probably can't help with this matter. Zhao Liu sighed, "Just now, the senior brother of the slave family came to find the slave family and asked the slave family to hide for a while." (To be continued.) )
