I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty
Chapter 1243 Seed
Li Chunfeng was a famous mathematician, astronomer and Taoist in the Tang Dynasty.
他主要研究的是历法推算、?6?8风力定级、?6?8易学以及天文学。?6?8
Li Chunfeng is good at the I Ching, Zhouyi, and deduction.
But this also made him particularly believe in the laws of nature and destiny.
So when Li Shen told him that thunder was neither a punishment from heaven nor a bad omen, it was somewhat hard for him to accept.
After all, this has been the belief for thousands of years and has become deeply ingrained in people's minds.
"What? It seems that you don't believe what I said?"
Li Shen picked up the tea and took a sip.
His dandy nature was revealed, with a playful look on his face.
"No, no, no, it's not that I don't believe Your Majesty, it's just...it's just that since ancient times, thunder has represented heavenly punishment.
The prince said today that he was just born naturally and it does not mean anything special.
This moment made me a little surprised."
Even if he really didn't believe it in his heart, Li Chunfeng couldn't say it directly.
Prince Ji had a bad reputation. If he offended Prince Ji, he, a mere fifth-rank official, would not be able to withstand Prince Ji's wrath.
Prince Ji was high and mighty, overbearing, and moody. So many third- and fourth-rank officials in the court did not dare to offend Prince Ji.
As a Grand Historian, he could not afford to offend him.
“Haha, it seems that you really don’t believe in me.
In fact, what I want to say is that this thunder did not appear for no reason. It is ultimately generated by the heaven and earth.
But what I mean by being born from heaven and earth is not the same as what you mean by heaven and earth in your study of the Yijing and the Five Elements.
It does not represent the will of some existence, it just happens naturally.
The nature that I am talking about represents everything in this world, the so-called Tao follows nature.
You study Taoism, so you should know something about this."
Li Shen smiled lightly. It is very difficult to subvert a person who has a very high understanding of something.
Li Shen didn't have time to waste on this. It didn't matter whether he believed it or not. He just wanted to give some advice.
After all, he only knew the basics.
The reason he brought this up was to encourage these people to conduct in-depth research into these so-called truths.
Li Shen has traveled through time for a long time, and he has always had a doubt in his heart.
With a long history of more than 5,000 years, China is the only ancient civilization with no interruptions.
The other three perished before BC.
But why weren't all modern technologies invented by the Chinese?
Is it true that aliens invade like in science fiction movies and bring in technology?
The ancients were not stupid, but smarter, they possessed great wisdom.
Many things are extremely difficult to imitate with later technology.
For example, the plain gauze Zen robe has not decayed for a thousand years and weighs only 50 grams. It took scientific researchers thirteen years to successfully imitate it using high-end technology.
Many scientists have spent their entire lives studying the seismometer but still cannot understand its principles, let alone imitate it.
It was eventually deleted from student textbooks, and the reason given was that scientists believed it was unscientific, had no basis, and was merely superficial.
As an important carrier for students to learn knowledge, the content of textbooks must be able to withstand scientific scrutiny.
When Li Shen heard such words, he was both amused and confused. If you can't do it, don't say you can't do it, and say it's unscientific.
This is all the wisdom of ancient people.
But why are so many theories not proposed by the ancients?
After more than ten years of study, Li Shen concluded that it was due to ideological education and the feudal social system.
Li Shen is a member of the royal family, an aristocrat, with a high status and noble bloodline.
They need to confine people's thoughts and make them act within a circle defined by them.
Occasionally, some people want to escape from this circle, but they will eventually be ruthlessly destroyed.
These people were called traitors.
The rulers do not want the people to do anything out of the ordinary, such as proving whether there is a God or how the Emperor of Heaven can justify himself.
If there were no ghosts and gods, then the idea of gods protecting the royal family and obeying the will of heaven would not be true.
Therefore, rulers will not allow the people to make trouble, and it is best for them to be obedient and honest.
Between heaven and earth, man is the most precious. The ruler is the shepherd of the people and the rule of law. (This word is correct)
Li Shen knew that it was not that he could not research it, but that the times, society and rulers did not allow it.
The reason why Li Shen established the research institute was not because he wanted to change anything. He is not that noble.
He wants to use advanced technology to create wealth for himself.
Everything he studies revolves around the word "profit".
He told Li Chunfeng that these were just a whim and would not explain them to him in detail.
The main reason is that Li Shen himself didn't understand it. Being able to put forward a point of view was already a gift from Li Shen to this mythological figure of later generations.
"Okay, I'm going back home. Mr. Li helped me a lot today, I've made note of it.
Shitou, bring me ten gold bars."
After hearing what Li Shen said, Shi Tou immediately went to get ten gold bars himself.
"Li Taishi, these ten gold bars are a reward from the king to you."
Li Shen asked Shitou to put the gold bars on the table.
"Your Highness Prince Ji, this is absolutely unacceptable. This is also my duty."
Li Chunfeng quickly refused.
“Okay, just accept my reward with peace of mind. No one will dare to say anything, and His Majesty will not care.
The king is gone."
The work was done, Li Shen stood up and prepared to return home. Rewarding Li Chunfeng was also to establish a good relationship.
Li Chunfeng needs money to study many things. Li Shen's ten gold bars and one hundred strings of cash can solve many of Li Chunfeng's problems.
"My lord, stay."
Li Chunfeng saw Li Shen was about to leave and called out to stop him.
"Anything else?"
Li Shen turned around and asked.
"Your Highness Prince Ji just mentioned the matter of thunder. I would like to ask, does Your Highness Prince Ji have any evidence?"
Li Shen's words planted a seed in his heart.
"As for the evidence, you need to find it yourself. Don't you Taoists always say that the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed?
I have said too much, but in the end you still have to find the answers yourself.
But maybe we'll have the answer in a few days.
Ha ha ha ha. "
Li Shen glanced at Li Chunfeng mysteriously, then left with a loud laugh.
Li Chunfeng hurriedly followed and sent Li Shen out of the Taishi Bureau.
"Farewell to His Royal Highness Prince Ji."
Several officials from the Taishi Bureau saluted Li Shen's carriage.
Watching Li Shen's carriage slowly leave.
"Grand Historian, what exactly is the purpose of Prince Ji's visit?"
one official asked.
"No big deal, just asking about the weather."
Li Chunfeng said calmly that this was no secret and there was nothing that could not be told to others.
"Ask about the weather?" Several officials were puzzled.
Why did King Ji ask about the weather?
"Okay, stop guessing. Drought is happening in Longyou Pass and Hedong.
Although His Royal Highness Prince Ji does not attend court, it is normal for a prince to care about state affairs.
Over the years, His Royal Highness Prince Ji has provided assistance to disaster victims many times, and this is something that everyone has witnessed.
It's all gone. "
After Li Chunfeng finished speaking, he dispersed the crowd.
