I am Da Song

Chapter 299 Simon's Law
After talking about the country's economic accounts, several prime ministers and ministers left one after another.

The maids rushed over to remove the cups and plates, and the study returned to tranquility. Zhao Huan could finally relax on the soft couch and let himself go.

Zhao Huan felt relaxed all over without having to hold back his image in front of the ministers, and without having to worry about the country's government affairs.

After patting a corner of the soft couch, Yan Ying walked over and sat on the couch with her legs together.

Zhao Huan lay on the pillow directly, and rubbed his face on the girl's leg comfortably.

Because it was summer, Yanying was wearing light gauze, and she could clearly feel the coolness and smoothness of her skin and the delicate softness of her thighs.

Zhao Huan closed his eyes, smelled the fragrance from the girl's legs, and asked, "Little Yinger, why do you think girls' legs are slightly cold?"

Yan Ying rubbed his scalp lightly with her slender fingers. Hearing this, she asked enthusiastically, "Did the officials also hear about that strange problem recently?"

"What strange question?" Zhao Huan felt that her question was even more strange, why did she answer it so irrelevant?
Yan Ying asked in surprise: "Don't the officials know? The Ximen Question has become all the rage recently. It has attracted a lot of interest from all the students in Tokyo. They have to ask why in everything."

"I thought the officials were following a trend, so they asked this question."

"You have to ask the truth about everything?" Zhao Huan said with sharp eyes, "This is a good quality. Only with this kind of spirit can one seek the truth and learn from things."

"Tell me about this Ximen question."

Yan Ying was very interested, and immediately talked freely, saying: "The question of Ximen is a question recently raised by a high-ranking official with the double surname Ximen racking his brains for his thesis."

"It is said that this Ximen official was born in a wealthy family in Shandong. In order to become an official, he had to go to Tokyo Taixue for further study to obtain a degree and then participate in the imperial examination."

"He said in his thesis that he was walking on the street and was accidentally hit on the head by a woman's window pole on the second floor. He asked why the wooden pole fell on the second floor and didn't fly to the sky or fall to the left , don’t fall to the right, but fall downward.”

Zhao Huan's right hand, which was caressing in the girl's skirt, paused for a moment, his eyes widened.

Long live!
Newton's coffin board is going to be overwhelmed!
Classical mechanics, Newton's law, will be renamed Simon's law!

Sure enough, there are too many people, and any evildoers may appear.

Yan Yingjiao said with a smile: "Officials, this Ximen question has become popular recently. The whole imperial school is discussing this issue. The students are all dazed. Seeing birds flying in the sky, they want to ask why birds can fly, but people can't." .Seeing the carriage stopped in place, I wondered why the wheels stopped in place even though they could turn on their own.”

"The most interesting thing is the Confucian classics, two children debate the sun. In order to debate the true meaning of this issue, the entire Taixue, as well as the academies all over the world, all participated in the frantic debate, and no one could convince the other."

Zhao Huan was a little sluggish. He really didn't expect that Confucianism had just been reformed and academic thinking had just been loosened.

This Confucianism, which seeks change, immediately produced so much research and thinking about Confucian classics.

Overthrowing the classic interpretation of this allusion of "knowing it as knowing it, not knowing it as not knowing" for thousands of years, and thinking about other aspects of the allusion.

For a long time, Zhao Huan felt that Song Dynasty was a little short of the industrial revolution.

Although agriculture is highly developed, the economic base already exists.

Industry and commerce also developed rapidly, and social wealth continued to increase.

But inexplicably, Zhao Huan just felt that the Song Dynasty was a classical feudal empire, and the whole society seemed to be separated by a hazy veil from the modern industrial society.

Today, Zhao Huan finally suddenly realized.

The gap lies in this highly developed, rigorous and clear scientific system!

The craftsmen, workshops, and producers of the Song Dynasty are all accumulating experience and science, with a strong classical atmosphere.

Modern industry, on the other hand, needs rigorous and logical natural science.

Zhao Huan said with sincere emotion: "After the millions of elites, scholars, and scholars in the Song Dynasty were forced to give up studying "The Analects of Confucius", they finally thought about some truths in other directions!"

At this moment, Zhao Huan was even a little moved.It has been four years, from my time travel to the present, I have exhausted my mind and painstaking efforts, and I have been sleeping all night long, just to let hundreds of millions of people in the Song Dynasty raise their heads from the brilliant and poor study of the way of Confucius and Mencius.

The state has forcibly abolished the custom of selecting scholars based on advanced Confucian knowledge, forcing all scholars to realize that if you study Confucian classics badly, you will not become an official and make a fortune.

It also invested billions of dollars in wealth, set up colleges, and cultivated doctors in other disciplines.

These scholars, whose brains have been frozen by Confucianism, have finally thought about some truths that Confucius did not say.

Although these two problems have not been resolved, they signify that the physics and astronomy of the Song Dynasty are developing by leaps and bounds after obtaining a favorable social environment.

Zhao Huan sat up from Yan Ying's lap, and said very formally: "With the situation of my imperial edict, reward the student who raised the question of Ximen, give him a gold and jade belt, and reward him with [-] guan! The academy that discusses the two children's debates will be rewarded with [-] scholarships."

"Issuing a reward in the name of the royal family consortium, all scholars from all over the world, regardless of the country, regardless of Xia Yi, who can find the true meaning of Ximen's question, the royal family rewards him with gold ten thousand taels, 500 million coins, and hires him as the dean of the Yufu Academy. Give the envoy of the festival and seal the Duke of Kaiguo!"

Yan Ying covered her mouth in surprise, and asked: "Five million crowns? Is there too many officials? In the whole world, no one has so much wealth except the royal family. Wealth can rival a country, and it is by no means a lie. Liao, and even the Kingdom of Jin may not be able to spend so much money."

Zhao Huan waved his hand and said, "You don't know the meaning of this question. When someone can answer the true meaning of this question, my Great Song Dynasty will be stronger than ever before. The Great Song Dynasty and Zhuqi will be planted in every corner of the world. The sun and the moon shine, all belong to the soil of Song Dynasty."

"No, this sentence itself limits my thinking. The real strength is that the sun will always shine on the land where the Song and Zhu flags fly."

"At that time, 500 million yuan will not be much different from the current 500 million yuan. The country will have tens of billions of dollars in fiscal revenue a year."

"The Kingdom of Jin, Mongolia, and Mobei are nothing but barbarians under the blazing power of the empire, and they are completely unable to cause any waves."

So in order to ensure the motivation of this reward, Zhao Huan also set up a gold ten thousand taels to preserve the value.

It is guaranteed that anyone who can come up with Simon's Law will immediately become famous, live a rich life, and be famous through the ages.

This is the most vulgar way, but it is also the best way to promote technological progress, throwing money!
