Chapter Ninety-Three: Qin Tianjian (First Shift)
"What is he doing here?"
In the past few months, the monarchs and ministers have gotten along well, and they have abided by the boundaries originally demarcated, His Majesty the Emperor plays his own game, and does not compete with Qin Xiang for power and profit, and Qin Xiang only cares about the affairs of the court, and completely indulges His Majesty the Emperor, who is ridiculous and has a lot of rumors.
Both sides play their own games, and private meetings are rare.
Although he had doubts in his heart, he still arranged for Qin Xiangye to meet in the Liangyi Palace.
After the monarch and the ministers met, there was no polite greeting, Qin Xiang directly presented two copies of the notes, and said: "Your Majesty, these two pieces of notes are the two statistics I asked the Secretary Pavilion and Qin Tianjian to do, you can take a look first!"
The statistics made by the Secretary Pavilion are actually Qin Xiang's more careful combing of the clues he discovered more than a month ago.
Embodied in this recital, it is to show one thing, from a certain point in time, more and more countries in the world are "dead", or "unlucky", and there are constantly countries being severely punished and even adjudicated, and there is an increasing trend with the passage of time.
He probably skimmed through this recital and put it aside, he actually knew it well, and he didn't need to pretend to look at it carefully.
He was even more curious about what was in Qin Tianjian's recital.
The Qin Heavenly Prison is also a special institution, similar to the Holy Church, with a headquarters in the Divine Capital and a branch in each of the ancient capitals of the Four Imperial Dynasties.
However, unlike the Templar's complete transcendence, the Celestial Prison was an institution entirely under the leadership of the Imperial Court.
All the funds needed were also financed by the Empire.
There are two major artifacts in the Qin Heavenly Prison, the armillary sphere and the geodynamic instrument, and it is also responsible for the study of some time instruments such as sundials, hourglasses, drip leaks, and mechanical pendulum clocks.
This is all provided by Emperor Taizong, created by the painstaking efforts of the masters of the Mo family, and with the development of the Mo technology, they have also been updated from generation to generation. However, the overall functionality remains the same.
The armillary sphere is used to observe the celestial phenomena and draw star maps, and the Qin Tianjian deduces the seasonal changes of the solar terms according to the changes in the celestial phenomena and formulates the calendar, which is an important basis for all the kingdoms in this world to cultivate, hunt, conquer, and even marry and mourn.
The people of the Tianyuan Realm have long realized that the world is not eternal, year after year, every few hundred years, the calendar will have a small adjustment under the leadership of Qin Tianjian, and compared with one or two thousand years, it is even more different.
The change of celestial phenomena is also an important basis for predicting the macro climate change of the whole world in the next few years, decades or even longer.
Qin Tianjian summarized thousands of years of observation of celestial phenomena and found that the climate of a certain area within the Tianyuan Realm was affected by the flow and changes of water vapor, cold and heat within the world, but for the entire Tianyuan Realm, it was closely related to the changes in the stars of Zhou Tian.
Qin Tianjian has a deep and long accumulation of statistics, which can predict the trajectory of the existing stars in the next hundreds of thousands of years, and predict the climate change in the corresponding period in the future. However, the farther away from the present day the forecast becomes, the more vague it becomes, and we can only conclude that it is drought, rainy, hot, cold, and moderate.
But this is already precious, enough to guide the statecraft of the Tian Yuan Empire and even the entire Tian Yuan Realm.
Several well-known water conservancy projects that run through dozens of roads, connect hundreds of thousands of water systems, affect all countries in the Tianyuan Realm, and use the power of the entire Tianyuan Realm to build water conservancy projects that have benefited from this.
The geodynamic instrument is used to monitor earthquakes and volcanic eruptions in the Tian Yuan Realm, as well as super-large mountain collapses and mudslides.
And this compromise is a detailed comparison report of the monitoring data of the ground motion instrument before and after a certain node.
After the research and improvement of the previous generations of Mojia masters, the five geodynamic instruments distributed in the east, south, west, north, and central directions can detect the changes of the ground movement above the third level of the Tianyuan Realm, and at the same time can indicate the direction of the ground movement, accurately determine the central position to within 100 kilometers, and distinguish the size of the ground movement.
Xu is because since Emperor Taizong, the world has been in an abnormal stage of "super growth", earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and even super-large mountain collapses, mud and rock torrents are much more frequent than in previous lives, and the whole world has been in an "active" state for a long time.
In some classified archives, those famous huge mountain ranges have changed greatly every thousand years, most of them have increased in height and size to varying degrees, and some have collapsed into cliffs and abysses.
The current settlements of human beings are mainly large plains, with hilly landforms interspersed, far away from active volcanoes and high mountains and valleys, so the most direct threat to human beings is earthquakes.
In the earthquake level formulated by the Qin Tianjian, the standard of destroying the house is only reached above the fifth level, and the mother earth shivered for a while, according to the process, if there is a ground movement above the fifth level, the Qin Tianjian must report to the secretary cabinet as soon as possible, and the secretary cabinet should deduce the specific affected country according to the information such as the azimuth distance detected by the ground motion instrument at the first time, estimate the extent of the disaster, and make rescue preparations in time.
The empire, as the suzerainty of all the kingdoms under heaven, is not only a strict father, but also a loving father.
In the face of natural disasters such as earthquakes, droughts, floods, and snowstorms, the empire has always adhered to the admonition of Emperor Taizong, "When one side is in trouble, all sides will support". All other countries in the world that have not been affected by disasters must accept the reasonable dispatch of the Tian Yuan Empire to provide relief to the affected countries, and if there are countries in this case, they will be directly included in the ruling list if they take advantage of the fire to rob the affected countries.
In the course of the development of civilization for thousands of years, the people of almost all countries and regions or their ancestors have benefited from this system, even if they have not benefited, who can guarantee that their children and grandchildren will not have such a day.
This has become a major law seared into the marrow of the entire civilization circle, if a certain monarch is stingy to contribute, even if the empire does not punish him, his people will spurn such a monarch at the first time.
Before a certain point in time, the Tian Yuan Realm had an average of 1.5 earthquakes of magnitude 5 or higher in the southeast, northwest, and northwest every month, and only a quarter of them occurred in the plains inhabited by humans, and the rest occurred in the "earth folds" that crisscrossed the mountains and valleys.
And after a certain point of time, the number of earthquakes of magnitude 5 or higher in the world doubled in one month, and in the second month, it increased by 30%!
And just this month, there were 19 earthquakes of magnitude 5 or higher around the world, and five of them directly affected humans.
Fortunately, three of them, including an eight-magnitude earthquake, occurred in relatively remote places, and the impact and casualties were not large, and another six-magnitude earthquake happened to occur in the county seat of a small country, and the casualties were very large, which was already a big disaster for that small country, and a five-magnitude earthquake occurred next to the capital of another small country, although the casualties were not as large as the former, but the various losses caused were still excessive.
