"Since ancient times, the ancestors have had the Hun Tian Theory and the Gai Tian Theory."

"I myself am more inclined to say that the earth is round, and that the earth has four journeys, and that the earth travels once a day, and the wind wheels support it; There are four tours on the ground, 30,000 miles north and west on the winter solstice, 30,000 miles south and east on the summer solstice, and spring and autumn are two of them. ”

"Because according to the sailors of Shanghai County, at sea level, the first thing they see is the sail, and then the hull of the ship."

"So the earth should be round, as the heavens say, but I think the ball under our feet should be around the sun."

"The sage of the Song Dynasty proposed that the earth and the stars have four ups and downs."

"Four Travelers: Self-reliant Spring, Journey to the West with the Earth and Stars; The spring equinox, the extreme of the westward journey, although the west pole of the earth, rises and falls in the middle, from then on gradually to the east, to the end of spring to normalize; Since the beginning of the summer after the north tour, the summer solstice, the north of the extreme, the earth is up and down the pole, to the end of the summer to normalize; After the beginning of autumn, the eastward journey, the autumn equinox, the eastward journey, the ground rises and falls in the middle, and the end of autumn is restored; After the beginning of winter, the south travels, the winter solstice, the south travels to the extreme, and the ground rises and falls on the pole, and it is restored at the end of winter. ”

"This is the righteousness of the earth and the stars."

"In all these things, and it is speculated that the moon revolves around the sphere, and the sphere revolves around the sun, I name it the sun."

"Only the sun theory can explain the armillary theory, the four lobbying theories, and the four traveling ascending and lowering theories coherently."

……

Technical News.

An article from the capital was published.

At first, the capital was divided into Si Tianjian and Hui Si Tianjian.

The first officials of Huihui Si Tianjian were the father and son who emigrated from Turkey in the second year of Hongwu.

Later, the return to Si Tianjian was cancelled, and only Si Tianjian was retained.

There are four sections: astronomy, omission, unification calendar, and Hijri calendar, which are departments that specialize in observing astronomy and calculating the calendar.

But none of this comes as a surprise.

Miraculously, the most famous in the capital is Ma Pengying, originally from Changli, Hebei, who moved to the capital in the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu.

Bright since childhood, she studied with her father and gradually became a strange girl who was proficient in almanacs and astronomy.

After the death of Wu Bozong in the Hongwu Dynasty, he was recognized as a master of astronomy.

Zhu Yuanzhang has heard of this woman's talent, and has called this woman to enter the court many times and served as the secretary of the Shanggong Palace, promoting the development of astronomy, including the future Zhu Di has also reused this woman.

"This woman is so bold."

"Nonsense."

The development of things is always fraught with controversy.

It's like whether aliens exist or not.

He who does not believe does not believe, but he who believes is convinced.

And this woman broke the precedent of the Technology Newspaper, and was the first woman to be published in an article since the inception of the magazine.

"Dear Mr. Ma."

"The second Daming Science and Technology Conference, and even the industry exchange meeting, will be held on November 15, the 30th year of Hongwu."

"Many well-known scholars participated in and exchanged ideas at this academic annual meeting, and there was an award process during the conference."

"The conference has invited 500 scholars in physics, chemistry, invention and application, mathematics, biology and medicine, culture, social theory and other aspects."

"Regarding Mr. Ma's talents and achievements in the field of astronomy, Mr. Ma is hereby invited to give a scholarly report at the conference."

"You are cordially invited to participate, and all travel expenses will be borne by the conference."

……

Capital.

An ordinary house.

The woman held the letter from Beiping in her hand, her face full of hesitation.

"You can go if you want."

Her husband laughed.

The woman's talent is definitely top-notch.

But it is also inseparable from the support of her husband.

Unlike ordinary men, the woman's husband, Liu Gongzhi, did not ask the woman to devote himself to her husband and children at home, but supported the woman to study her hobbies.

It is with the support of the family that the woman's achievement is possible.

She is also a famous female astronomer in Chinese history, and the first female official of the Ming generation to obtain the rank of Yulu.

Ma Pengying got the support of her husband, no longer hesitated, packed her luggage and rushed to Beiping.

She wanted to go to Peking for a long time.

Ma Pengying will read every issue of the technical newspaper.

In the technical newspaper, countless integrated knowledge opened Ma Pengying's eyes, as if opening a new door.

Coupled with the opening of Shanghai County, Ma Pengying studied the remarks of the sailors, and only then did she have a bold speculation.

But she wasn't sure in her heart.

Because of the limitations of tools, the world's famous astronomy is based on geocentrism, including China.

Even the Hun Tian theory is difficult for the world to accept, let alone the heliocentric theory proposed by Ma Pengying.

This is too much of an ordinary person's three views.

In accordance with the optimal route pointed out in the letter of the conference organizer, Ma Pengying first arrived in Shandong by boat, and Shandong had a railway and began to take the train.

It took a few days to arrive in Beiping.

The trip was an eye-opener for her.

New urban areas, roads, railways are not mentioned.

According to the address of the letter, she first found the location of the conference organizing club, and the staff of the club learned that she was Ma Pengying, and hurriedly and prudently entertained her.

And in order to take care of her life in Beiping, a female staff member was specially arranged to lead her to familiarize herself with the life in Beiping.

A large number of women in Peking joined the workforce.

The social atmosphere in Peking made Ma Pengying even more in love, and she didn't want to leave Beiping anymore.

She was hesitating whether to persuade her husband to move to Beiping.

On the eve of the conference.

In one scholar exchange meeting after another, Ma Pengying met many like-minded people, and the exchanges with these people made Ma Pengying's thoughts collide fiercely.

Countless sparks of thought were born.

"Mr. Ma, your achievements and vision in astronomy are already top talents, and I suggest that you accept the invitation of the Technology Department to participate in the evaluation process and obtain the talent subsidy from Beiping."

One scholar earnestly suggested.

"If you get the talent subsidy, you can also go to the food stamp bank to apply for a house loan, and in this regard, there will be a separate high subsidy for those who receive the talent subsidy."

Scholars wear neat racers.

In his eyes, he did not regard Ma Pengying as a woman, but as a great scholar who could communicate on an equal footing.

The scholar is gentle and has a soft smile.

"Money is nothing to us people, but with a secure life, we can devote ourselves to our hobbies, right?"

The scholar's words made Ma Pengying couldn't help but bite her lip.

The more she knows about Beiping, the more reluctant she is to Beiping.

"Newspapers often say that scale can improve the efficiency of the factory, but in fact, the same is true of knowledge, only when more scholars form exchanges, can there be higher achievements."

"I'll communicate with my husband after I go back, and if my husband can agree, I'll come to Beiping."

Ma Pengying said.

"In that case, you can participate in the evaluation of the technical department first."

"Let's wait until I discuss it with my husband."

"I understand your concerns." The scholar explained: "If you pass the evaluation of the Technical Department, you don't have to stay in Beiping, and it will not affect whether you come to Peking in the future or not." ”

"And after winning the title of Peking Scholar, there is also a certain amount of political treatment, and there are many benefits."

"Thank you." Ma Pengying breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're welcome."

The conference organizer not only provides a venue for academic exchanges, but also provides a superior living environment and dining environment.

At the same time, tickets for the Grand Theater and Opera House were given.

There is only one purpose.

Serve the scholars well.

In his free time, Ma Pengying prepared to go to see the opera of the Peking Grand Theater according to the date of the ticket in his hand.

Some of the friends she made during this time said that the Peking Grand Theater was worth visiting.

After leaving the atmosphere of the academic circle, she found that there was some inexplicable atmosphere in the market in Beiping.

There seems to be anger on everyone's face.

Yili put the matter in Beiping, through the plate of the horse hang, everyone knows about it, which can be described as the indignation of the masses.

Only then did the social newspaper take the initiative to reveal the news that the railway engineering team was attacked.

The people of Peking couldn't stand it.

Now is the time when the self-confidence of the people of Peking is at its strongest.

The prince of his own family wants to become the prince.

Their own economic model is being promoted to the north.

Many people became workers, from workers to skilled workers, and batch after batch of people supported various places, becoming stewards of all sizes.

Since the founding of the New Army, the war it has faced has always been overwhelming, and there is no enemy in unison.

They actively participate in various social activities.

There are many organizational exchanges.

Suddenly, they felt offended when they found out what was going on in Yili.

People talk about things in Yili and express their opinions.

The army wants to fight.

The military-industrial complex wants to fight.

Merchants want to fight more.

And the local military households and civilian households, their remarks are also revenge.

Only the cotton merchants did not want to fight.

Ma Pengying's impression of Beiping was once again shocked.

The woman was no longer young.

When I was young.

She has experienced war and chaos, and the people don't like war the most, but the people of Beiping want to start a war.

"Jingle bells."

The bus arrives at the station.

Women, children, and men got out of the carriages, and the Peking Grand Theater was full as the New Year approached.

Ma Pengying followed the flow of people.

Over here.

Everywhere were women dressed in fancy flowers, dressed in elaborate makeup, dressed in beautiful dresses, and draped in beautiful cloaks.

Men like to wear neat racers, and because of the cold weather, they don't wear cotton clothes, but put on coats of the same I-shape.

Their profession can be distinguished by the way they dress.

Those who wore thick cotton clothes were generally military households, while those who wore I-shaped coats were mainly workers.

On the stage of the Peking Grand Theater, the theater staff staged an opera to protect the family and defend the country.

Even Ma Pengying, even she could smell the smell of gunsmoke.

"Peking is not afraid of war!"

Day 2.

Six big characters in the social newspaper.

"Find out the murderer!"

"Crush all enemies!"

At the school's club, the children spontaneously took to the streets.

There are pros and cons to everything.

The school encourages the students to organize their own clubs, so that these students dare to take to the streets.

Hundreds of middle school students dressed in school uniforms marched through the cold streets of Beiping.

Instead of retreating, people on both sides of the road clapped their hands and cheered for the students.

This is the society of Beiping.

In the advocacy of less criticism and more praise, people will applaud every little thing, not to mention these children, who get more praise.

In the midst of praise.

The teenagers held their heads high and were full of spirit.

Overnight.

Zhu Gaochi found many things, and suddenly did not need his guidance, and he already had the momentum of self-development.

This can be both a good thing and a bad thing.

As for Shami Chagan and Toto, the two young people who were hostile to each other chose to reconcile and tried their best to defend Zhu Gaochi together.

"If Beiping wants to send troops, we are willing to send troops to join."

It took a while for Shami Chagan to finally come up with the perfect idea.

That is to join Beiping.
