Chapter 249 I'm Looking up at the Moon
"Look at the moon?"
Zhao Zhongzhen still walked a little unnaturally. When he heard Wang Xu vividly talking about the magic of the telescope, he immediately regretted it and begged Shen An to make another one.
"You have to grind it slowly, it will take a few days."
The emperor was bathing and changing clothes and fasting, as were the ministers and ministers, but Shen An was eating barbecue.
There was a barbecue rack next to it, and more than a dozen skewers of mutton were sizzling with oil.
Bathing, changing clothes and fasting are just a joke to Shen An.
Guoguo was drooling beside her, but her brother wouldn't let her eat, saying that children's stomachs are delicate and eating barbecue would not be good.
But it smells so good!
Guoguo felt aggrieved, so she lowered her head and struggled to scrape the ice cream in the small bowl.
Wang Yu squatted beside her and said, "Guo Guo!"
Guoguo continued to shave her head, ignoring him.
Wang Yu coughed dryly and said in a seductive tone: "Do you want to see what's in the sky?"
Guoguo nodded, the hair on her head swaying, and then she put the ice cream in the spoon into her mouth, her eyes slightly narrowed in joy.
"Then you go and act coquettishly with your brother later and beg him to make a few more, one for each of us. Brother Yuanze will bring you good things and delicious things every time he comes here."
Wang Yu wanted to get a telescope and go home, but Shen An said that he was not free at the moment and had to give priority to meeting the officials' requirements.
Wang Yu was unwilling to give in, but Shen An refused to accept the offer. So he thought of Guoguo who could change Shen An's mind.
No matter how hard you refuse to eat, wait until Guoguo's mouth flattens and his eyes turn red. Let's see how long you can hold on!
Guoguo shook her head, and then continued to work hard to shave the ice cream.
Why didn't this kid respond?
Wang Yu continued to confuse: "Brother Yuanze has a lot of delicious food at home, like...dried mutton, dried fish, and those sweet ones...do you want to eat them?"
Guo Guo shook her head and said, "Brother can do it."
Wang Yu was hit immediately.
How could I forget that Shen An is a pioneer of gluttony and stir-fry?
After Guoguo finished eating the ice cream, she returned to the backyard with satisfaction.
"Little lady, it's time for a nap."
"I want to take a look, just take a look."
Guoguo walked to the window. There was a delicate wooden shelf, and there was a telescope on it.
She glanced at the blue sky, and then was coaxed by Mrs. Chen to lie down on the bed.
Aunt Chen was humming a gentle tune and gently fanning her cattail leaf fan...
After waiting for a while, she saw that Guoguo became quiet and quietly stood up.
"Look at the moon at night."
Aunt Chen, who had just turned around, couldn't help but cover her forehead and look back: "Okay, okay, let's go to bed now."
Only then did Guo Guo close her eyes with satisfaction.
Aunt Chen came out of the backyard and saw Katsuyuki Zhe hiding behind the wing, holding something unknown in her hand. She raised her head and took a sip, then opened her mouth and exhaled, with that grinning look...
"Zhe Langjun! You can't drink this stuff, it will burn your throat and intestines. Lang Jun said, if you want to die early, drink it, if you want to live a long life, mix it with water..."
Zhe Kexing was caught on the spot, and he responded hurriedly. After Aunt Chen nagged her, he looked at the sky and said: "Being a warrior, those who live long are not pure, they are almost the same as civil servants."
Dinner is hot pot, a big pot.
With the spread of cooking, there are more iron pots, and the Shen family has several.
Zhe Kexing is a big-bellied man, but he ate elegantly tonight, and not much.
Guoguo has long been used to seeing him eating heartily, so she is also a little curious.
"Brother, Brother Zhe is sick."
Guo Guo feels that she will eat less only when she is sick.
Shen An smiled, used serving chopsticks to pick up vegetables for her, and said, "He ate too much at noon."
"oh!"
Guoguo ate obediently, but didn't notice that Shen An was glaring at Zhe Kexing.
Eating too much will make you less flexible, so if Zhe Kexing suddenly reduces his food intake, he must be preparing to take action.
After dinner, Shen An was drinking tea.
The moon will only climb up and will be brighter later.
When the chamberlain appeared in the yard, Zheke walked over.
His eyes were a little cold, reminding Shen An of a wolf.
"Brother Anbei, this matter is very important. If the officials don't handle it well, they will be tempted, and those prime ministers and ministers are not good people. If they feel that this matter cannot be told to outsiders, brother Anbei, it will be dangerous."
This means he wants to take his family out of Bianliang City!
The moon was like water. Shen An patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Zun Dao, now I just want them to see something and open their eyes. As for killing people and silencing them, they don't have the courage."
"Why?"
"Because the monarch and his subjects are not of the same mind. Remember, throughout the dynasties, the monarch and his subjects have never been of the same mind."
Zhe Katsuyuki felt that his world view had been subverted again, and he said blankly: "But doesn't it say in the history books... that in the prosperous times, the king and his ministers were of one mind?"
This boy is still a little naive!
Shen An glanced at the chamberlain standing inside the gate, lowered his voice and said: "The so-called prosperous age is full of blood, tears and infighting. The reason why people are the best of all things is because people have selfish motives... Human selfishness is the most important thing. , Desire is the most important. The king has selfish motives, and the ministers have selfish motives, and they all have different desires... So unless I touch the foundation of the king and the minister at the same time, there will be no silence. Don't worry. "
This is the real stepping on the eggs.
The interests of the monarch and his ministers are fundamentally different, and Shen An only needs to stand aside.
The so-called monarch and ministers are of the same mind, that is really nonsense and nonsense.
That's why Shen An dared to get the telescope out and said that the lunar eclipse had nothing to do with the telepathy between heaven and man.
Because this is a good thing for the emperor.
The emperor is on my brother's side, who can silence him?
Shen An patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "I went this time to subvert something and let them know that the world is not what they imagined."
…
Shen An entered the palace under the moonlight, but found that he was the last to arrive.
Zhao Zhen was pacing slowly, concealing his anticipation and nervousness.
The prime ministers and ministers gathered together to whisper, and when they saw Shen An, they all fell silent.
Zhao Zhen also stopped pacing and looked over with bright eyes.
Shen An felt like a little lamb facing the siege of several hungry wolves.
These people can’t wait!
Shen An coughed dryly and said, "Your Majesty, it's almost done."
Fu Bi felt that Shen An's attitude was a bit contemptuous, so he asked, "Why are you late?"
Shen An said casually: "Eat too much, let's digest it."
Zhao Zhen was also angry, thinking that I was bathing, changing clothes, and fasting to show respect for the moon, but you, a young man, actually ate too much...
Han Qi muttered: "Without any sense of awe, that Mangshan hermit is probably not a kind person."
Chen Zhongheng came personally carrying the wooden frame.
Because I don’t know what the mysterious relationship between this wooden frame and the telescope is, nothing has been moved, even the bark of the tree is still on it.
"Shen Daizhao, how to do it?"
Chen Zhongheng set up the wooden shelf and opened the box.
The rough telescope was wrapped in silk, and there was silence.
If it weren't for Shen An's explanation, these people would probably think that this was clairvoyance and a divine weapon from the sky.
Now they know that these are lenses ground from crystal, but they still feel in awe.
Shen An set up the telescope on it, and then slowly turned it until it was pointed at the moon.
He looked at it for a while, then raised his head and said, "Okay."
Zhao Zhen was a little nervous. Fu Bi noticed it and asked, "Anbei, since your teacher taught you this, he must have seen things on the moon. What's on it?"
Shen An glanced at the moon and said, "There...the teacher said there are mountains above."
"What mountain?"
Fu Bi felt that this was not very reliable, "If they were all mountains, wouldn't they be the same as us?"
The moon is actually the same as where we live. This is a bit boring!
Since it has been deified, there must be something worthy of awe.
"Crater..."
Zhao Zhen had already moved closer, half a ball appeared in his sight...
"what is that?"
He felt that the half ball looked a little cold and intimidating.
"That's the moon, Your Majesty."
Shen An looked at the moon simultaneously from the side.
Thanks to the unpolluted environment, Shen An could see the shadow on the moon.
Those are craters.
Zhao Zhen also saw it.
First he saw the shadow, and then on the edge of the shadow, he saw some round depressions.
He was thinking about how to describe these depressions, but in the end he could only say feebly: "It looks like... it looks like it was hit..."
"That's right."
Shen An was wondering whether all the men in the old Zhao family had talents as artists, at least in natural subjects.
Zhao Zhen watched intently, and Shen An felt that he had watched for at least a quarter of an hour.
When he looked up, there was a crisp sound in his neck.
He didn't realize it at all and just looked at Shen An blankly.
"Did you know it was like that up there?"
Shen An shook his head and said, "I have only heard of it, but this is the first time I have seen it."
Zhao Zhen nodded, and the emperor's self-esteem made him feel that this was not bad.
At least I'm not a country bumpkin.
So Shen An pretended to go and see it for the first time.
"It's so beautiful!"
The king and his ministers have all finished reading.
"It's cooler outside."
Zhao Zhen felt a little sad, so he didn't want to enter the palace.
"That's the moon?"
Han Qi, who wanted to see the Moon Palace and Chang'e, was disappointed.
"Why does it look like...a desert up there?"
"Those potholes look like they are leaking people. I will probably have nightmares at night."
"..."
Everyone looked at Zhao Zhen.
"Your Majesty, it is ridiculous for the ministers to come forward to remonstrate. I thought they should be suppressed."
Fu Bi expressed his stance.
From strongly advising Zhao Zhen to give in, to now firmly saying that he must suppress it, this is a big turn.
Zeng Gongliang said: "Your Majesty, many people follow the memorial, but in fact they have no independent opinions. They should be scolded."
Most of the people who came to remonstrate this time were following the crowd, but their will was not firm.
Han Qi also expressed his position: "Your Majesty, it is time to take action tomorrow."
There is no Moon Palace on the moon, there is no Chang'e, there are just pits, countless big pits...
Tengu will definitely have no interest in those big pits.
This is a disruption!
Although these monarchs and ministers do not believe that there are tengu, they are in awe of the moon. They always feel that even if there are no tengu, gods should exist.
These concepts have existed in their hearts for decades, from childhood to adulthood, from scholars to monarchs, ministers, and ministers, and they are deeply ingrained.
But now?
Everyone was looking at Shen An with awe and embarrassment in their hearts.
What's awe-inspiring is that from now on, lunar eclipses can no longer be used as a tool for heaven and humans to sense. What's embarrassing is that I have been deceived for many years.
"It's time to start!"
Zhao Zhen didn't like murderous moves. He glanced at Shen An and said, "You donated the telescope this time... Okay, okay!"
He has suffered a lot these past few days, and he has been surrounded by all kinds of advice.
If Shen An takes action today, this matter will be solved.
Shen An knew that what Zhao Zhen needed now was to calm down and consider the follow-up matters.
"Your Majesty, I take my leave."
Zhao Zhen nodded, watching Shen An walk away calmly, and couldn't help but praise: "Don't be surprised by favor or humiliation, good!"
Fu Bi, who was standing next to him, looked at the night sky and sighed: "Is that the power of the gods? Those potholes look huge. Of course, humans can't do it. There is only the power of the gods."
Han Qi glanced at him and praised: "The rich prime minister is right, that is divine power."
"The movements of the gods are infinitely powerful. There are so many potholes that make people think about the battle between the gods. They can't help but be fascinated, leisurely and fascinated!"
Zeng Gongliang spoke in an emotional tone as if he were reciting poetry.
The three of them bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am terrified to witness such a miracle."
Zhao Zhen said calmly: "Thank you for your hard work, gentlemen."
"I'll take my leave."
The ministers and ministers respectfully resigned, and the king stood with his hands behind his back. UU read the book www. uukanshu.net
But a tacit understanding between the two parties has been reached.
There are miracles on the moon, and gods in this world!
A world without gods is absurd, and such people are empty and lack awe.
Once faith collapses, the Song Dynasty will be in chaos and collapse.
Shen An also knew this, so he did not say anything further: atheism was the source of chaos at this time, and raising it suddenly would only turn the Song Dynasty into a pot of porridge.
A messy pot of porridge.
Everyone needs to be in awe, at least before opening up their people’s wisdom, they need to be in awe of this world.
Just like in later generations, no matter how advanced technology is, countless people still believe that there are ghosts and gods in this world...

The fourth update is here, good night everyone. Jazz continued to write.
