The rise of the poor

Chapter 1066 The reason for deceiving the sky
Bully? !
I am still Qitian, Monkey King.

Zhu Pingan coughed, bowed his hands to the elder next door, and replied innocently and helplessly, "Ahem, sir, you are always joking. The boy is weak, but he can't bear the name of deceiving the sky."

"Can't bear it?!"

The old man next door became excited again after hearing Zhu Ping'an's words. He grabbed the fence and stared at Zhu Pingan for a while, "Why, kid, you didn't admit that you did it?!"

"Dare to ask my lord, what have I done, boy?!"

Zhu Ping'an felt helpless and wronged after hearing what his old neighbor said. Although he could not be called a competent official, he could not be related to the treacherous minister who "deceived the sky".

"What did you do?!"

Hearing this, the old man blew his beard and stared again, and once again slapped the fence emotionally.

"Be gentle, don't get hurt again." Seeing this, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help worrying about the grumpy old man.

"Hmph. Lian Po is old enough to be able to eat, and the old man is also healthy and strong."

The old man snorted stubbornly, and his mouth stiffened, but his palms were behind his back, and he shook them lightly.

"You look old and strong when you look old."

Zhu Pingan played the traditional virtue of respecting the old and caring for the young, and gave a compliment with a smile, not like a stubborn old man.It is not easy for the old man to be imprisoned in this extremely poor prison cell at such an advanced age.

"If it's a compliment, open your mouth and come, you really are a flatterer."

Hearing Zhu Ping'an's words, the old man not only did not ease his emotions, but even blew on his beard, which made him even more energetic.

Uh.

This old man has a deep prejudice against himself.

Hearing the old man's personal attack, Zhu Pingan couldn't help but took a deep breath, stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead, looked at the old man helplessly, and cupped his hands, "Boy is stupid, I really don't know what I did wrong, please forgive me Teach me."

"I don't know what I did wrong?" Hearing this, the old man lost his temper and patted the fence emotionally again.

"I would like to ask my lord to enlighten me, the boy will listen carefully." Zhu Pingan bowed and said solemnly, "If the boy is really wrong, he will never evade his responsibility."

Zhu Ping'an's attitude made the old man a little satisfied. He snorted nasally and nodded, "Okay, I will tell you that I understand."

"Last month, there was an eclipse on the sun. This is a vision from heaven to show the Son of Heaven. Why?! The Son of Heaven did something wrong, so that he sensed the sky, and God revealed the vision of the solar eclipse to warn and condemn the Son of Heaven. At this time, the ritual of rescue should be performed routinely. The emperor should fast, deprive food, abolish music, and retreat from the main hall. Rescue, it's a matter of course." The stubborn old man was spitting, and couldn't help getting excited, "But what about you?! You're a sycophant, you don't even care about the duty of a courtier, so you know Flattery, what? Your Majesty treats the heavens with fathers, the sun with brothers, governs with diligence, loves the herdsmen, cultivates internal affairs, strengthens the country and enriches the people, and benefits the world. Therefore, the yin retreats and all phenomena shine. With the sun It’s crystal clear, the atmosphere is bright, the eclipse is on top of your head, it’s so big, you can’t see it?! What are you talking about with your eyes open and talking nonsense, who are you kidding, bullying God?!"

Uh.

That's what happened.

Zhu Pingan scratched his head in a sudden realization. At this moment, he finally understood why the old neighbor would be bearded and stare when he heard his name.

Wisdom determines altitude.

Zhu Ping'an can also understand the mood of the old neighbor.

In the feudal and superstitious Ming Dynasty, the ancients did not understand the scientific explanation of solar eclipses, and believed that solar eclipses heralded "bad omens", and explained solar eclipses with "the unity of man and nature".The emperor is the son of heaven—the eldest son of heaven, and heaven is the father of the emperor. He will warn and warn his eldest son through the phenomena on the surface of the sun, such as you are stupid and innocent, what have you done wrong, what are you doing recently? Be careful when there is danger, etc... As a subject, you have the duty to help the king correct mistakes and avoid danger, and you must rescue the solar eclipse.

The old neighbor has this kind of insight, and the height of knowledge is naturally limited by this insight.

As a result, a solar eclipse happened, and I wrote a memorandum, "It's the same as not having an eclipse, and the minister is very happy", which naturally could not be accepted by the old neighbors.

Judging by the standards of the old neighbor's knowledge, I am definitely a small treacherous minister, no, a big treacherous minister.

How to explain this to him?Popularize natural science for him?Come on, sir, please sit down, I will popularize natural science for you, the solar eclipse and lunar eclipse are both examples of light propagating in a straight line in the same homogeneous medium, when the moon, yes, is above our heads The moon, when it moves between the sun and the earth, what, how does it move, if the three are in a straight line, the moon will block the light from the sun to the earth, so that the shadow behind the moon just falls on the earth On, a solar eclipse occurs.

Pull it down, I don't want to go to the gallows and burn it!Natural science is contrary to the common sense of the ancients, and it is heresy in their eyes!The treatment is not much different from that of witchcraft and cults. According to the standard, they are all going to the gallows.

However, I have to explain, otherwise I won't be able to take off the hat of a bully and treacherous official; and this old man is still in prison at such a young age, seeing his anger value soaring straight up, It's too dangerous; in addition, I guess I may have to stay in this prison for a while, and the relationship with the neighbors must be improved. The conditions in the prison are so difficult. Cursing, wouldn't it be even more difficult to spend time in prison.

"Ahem, my lord, the memorial you just mentioned is indeed from my hand, but there is a reason for it, please listen to my explanation." Zhu Pingan coughed, and raised his hand to the neighbor's elder.

"Hmph, then let me hear how you turned black and white."

The stubborn old man snorted, stroked his messy beard and nodded, then found a dry place, rubbed some hay with his feet, and sat down, looking like a melon-eating crowd.

Listen to how I reverse black and white? !

I haven't explained it yet, but the old man has already defined himself.And this tone...why does it feel like you're bored in prison, listening to yourself sophistry, relieve boredom, and pass the time? !

Zhu Pingan looked at the old man eating melon with a speechless expression.

"What are you doing in a daze, start your inversion of black and white." The old man sitting on the ground urged me.
