"Your Majesty, these people are deliberately making noise and disrupting Your Majesty's enjoyment of listening to the art of spinning ball. They should be expelled." The person who spoke was one of the Nine Qings. He came out of the queue and cupped his hands, pointing at the noisy crowd.
Before Ying Zheng could say anything, Dr. Geng was not angry. He took a step forward, faced the man with dignity, and retorted: "The way of turning a ball with a steamer is Confucianism. The Confucianism taught by all the students at this moment is a reflection on the way of turning a ball with a steamer." If you are so enthusiastic, how can you disturb His Majesty's pleasure?"
"They are all fanatics and should be left to their own devices."
This is talking about the spinning ball, which is completely biased towards Confucianism and Taoism.
One of the nine ministers was at a loss for words. Judging from His Majesty's mood, he must be very interested in the way of turning the ball. If he said anything again, he might be dissatisfied, so he angrily rolled up his sleeves and stopped talking.
Although he didn't speak, someone did want to speak. This person was Han Shaofu. He studied Legalism, but he was also keen on Mohism. It can be said that they are a community of two families. Especially when he heard what the old Confucian said about the way of turning a ball. It was Confucianism. He was very angry and wanted to laugh a little. This was to fool His Majesty.
If he had never seen a steam engine, he would probably acquiesce to what the Confucian elders said, but Li Zhao's magical method allowed Duan Murong to create a prototype of a steam engine, which was even used on carriages. He lamented that these people had been corrupted by Confucianism and Taoism. .
Especially after seeing that scene with my own eyes, I was still frightened. He could not let His Majesty be corrupted and miss out on the eternal innovation.
So, when I heard such nonsense again, I couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, I believe that the way to turn a ball into a ball is to use the steam to generate power, thereby eliminating the human and animal power and realizing automation, just like a horse-drawn carriage. Can move without a horse.
"Not Confucianism."
This was what Li Zhao said when he later sent the steam engine parts. He listened from beginning to end and understood a little about the operation of the steam engine.
Speaking of Ying Zheng, he was originally looking forward to the steam engine that Li Zhao said in his heart, but when he heard the old man said that it was Confucianism and Taoism, he was slightly disappointed, but it was hard to explain.
Suddenly hearing what Han Shaofu said, Li Zhao's eyes lit up. Li Zhao said in his heart that the steam engine works on the carriage, but it can't travel without horses. And Han Shaofu also said the same. Has the Mohist family realized this?
It should be noted that Mr. Han is in charge of the weapons manufacturing department and should know about any troubles. He quickly asked: "Has the Mo family realized it?"
After hearing this, Shaofu Han didn't know how to respond.
But now, he had to say something. Just as he was about to speak, he was retorted by the old Confucian whose expression changed slightly: "Your Majesty, how can the Mohists realize that they are just deceiving, otherwise how could they still be here at this time?" No one showed up?"
"Yes, yes" Dr. Geng repeatedly echoed and said, "Your Majesty, today is a dispute between Confucianism and Mohism. If the Mohists have understood the method of turning the ball with steam, why has it not appeared for so long? From this we know that it must have not been understood. , flinched."
"They are deceiving you!"
Deceiving the king? Han Shaofu was shocked when he heard this. This is a serious crime! If the Mo family was really accused of deceiving the emperor, he would not be able to escape the involvement and quickly retorted: "No, Duan Murong did not deceive the emperor, nor did he deceive the emperor. He was trying. I think he will be there soon."
Ying Zheng was confused and asked: "Enlightenment is enlightenment, and non-enlightenment is non-enlightenment. Why try?"
"This is the method of turning the ball with steam that I just mentioned. It needs to be tried." Han Shaofu quickly explained that he had no choice. Time was too tight and the steam engine was too complicated. There was no time to assemble and try it, and the days were running out. Now that he's here, he wants to delay time.
The old man sneered at this and said: "Do you need to try the method of turning the ball with steam? Hey, it seems that you haven't understood it." He turned to face the emperor and raised his hands, "Your Majesty, what generates power? What eliminates the automation of human and animal power? It's simply a fantasy. It’s a myth, the steam is just the steam produced by the power of boiling water, just like the curling smoke, it will disappear when the water stops. How can it generate power? Are you so shameless that you can’t move without a horse? "
"They, they are just bullying."
Just when he was about to say that the Mo family was deceiving the emperor, suddenly, a series of sounds that he had never heard before came from not far away.
