I, Jiajing, successfully cultivated immortality

Chapter 270 Enlightenment Movement
Today's capital city can be described as quite lively.

Early in the morning, countless officials, in sedan chairs, hurried towards the Guozijian.

In the Imperial College, there was already a scene that everyone was looking forward to. Two students from the Imperial College put down the scrolls in their hands, and seeing that no one was paying attention, they began to chat.

"Have you heard that His Majesty is coming to our Imperial College to give lectures today?"

"I've heard about this a long time ago. It is said that His Majesty will also tell you about the knowledge recorded in the book called Science!"

"It is said that the knowledge in this book covers everything in the universe, and it is all-encompassing."

"I'm really looking forward to it. I don't know what His Majesty will say later."

"Yes!"

While the two were chatting, I saw Jijiu from the Imperial College stepping forward with his hands behind his back, asking them with a straight face.

"Have you finished the homework assigned earlier? Come on, recite it to me."

Seeing that someone came to offer wine to the Imperial College, the two dared not neglect in the slightest. After looking at each other, they began to recite the homework assigned earlier.

"The sincerity is the foundation of the virtues of heaven, and the source of holiness..."

……

The Forbidden City, the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Under the service of the personal eunuch, Jiajing put on his robe.

At this moment, Lu Fang stepped into the Hall of Mental Cultivation with silent steps.

As soon as Lu Fang entered the door, she knelt down on the ground and said respectfully.

"Report to Your Majesty, Lord Lu Bing, Commander of Jinyiwei, has arranged Jinyiwei along the way to ensure your safety!"

"At the same time, the people from the Wucheng Bingma Division are already in place."

After listening to Lu Fang's report, Jiajing nodded and continued to ask.

"Well, I see."

"By the way, is there any movement from Yan Song and Xu Jie?"

Seeing the emperor asking about this matter, Lu Fang didn't dare to hide anything, and immediately responded.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Yan Ge and Mr. Xu Ge set off for the Imperial College early in the morning in sedan chairs!"

"Well, yes, I see."

Jiajing seemed very satisfied with Lu Fang's statement, nodded and responded.

"It's about time, let's go now!"

Jiajing withdrew his gaze from Lu Fang, and then ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this servant obeys!"

Afterwards, Lu Fang came to Jiajing's side and followed step by step, his face full of humility.

……

At this moment, countless sedan chairs of different colors had already gathered at the gate of the Imperial College, and all the high-ranking officials in the capital had already arrived at the gate of the Imperial College to wait.

These officials gathered together in groups of three or four, and while exchanging the news they got, they also exchanged a few pleasantries from time to time in order to draw closer to each other.

And when five sedan chairs of different colors stopped at the gate of the Imperial College one after the other, the group of officials stopped exchanging greetings for an instant, turned their eyes to Yan Song and Xu Jie, and saluted respectfully.

"I've been waiting to see Mr. Ge!"

"Ah."

With Yan Shifan's support, Yan Song got off the sedan chair tremblingly, nodded, and stopped talking.

"Master Yan Ge came so early?"

I saw Xu Jie came to Yan Song with a smile on his face, and exchanged greetings.

"It's not too late for Mr. Xu Ge to come."

"Besides, the old man is also very interested in what His Majesty will teach at the Imperial College today!"

Yan Song withdrew his gaze from Xu Jie, and immediately added another sentence.

"Yes, I heard that His Majesty will give a lecture on the book called Science in the Imperial College today. The strange knowledge recorded in that book is really curious!"

"Keep waiting, you should be able to know the content later."

After Yan Song said this sentence, he stopped talking, and his whole person looked like he was sleeping but not sleeping.

And soon, many officials present automatically formed a neat team according to rank, seniority, etc.

And the people at the front of the line are just a few people from the cabinet.

After a while, only a thin voice came: "Your Majesty is here!"

Followed by a large number of Jinyiwei.

Hearing this, the expressions of many officials present were all terrified. When they saw the dragon chariot on which the emperor was riding appeared in their line of sight, under the leadership of Yan Song and others, they knelt down on the ground in unison and spoke loudly. road.

"The minister waits for His Majesty's arrival, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

With the support of Lu Fang, Jiajing got off the dragon chariot and swept his gaze over the many ministers present.

After a long time, Jiajing looked back and said slowly, "Well, get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After receiving the emperor's consent, many ministers present slowly got up from the ground.

"You all follow me in."

After Jiajing finished speaking, he entered the Guozijian under the guidance of Guozijian Jijiu.

Behind Jiajing, a large number of officials came to observe.

Inside the Guozijian, the ancient locust trees are shaded, and the front of the hall is still paved with neat stone bricks. The Guozijian was built according to the architectural etiquette of left temple and right school.

The location of Guozijian is adjacent to the Confucian Temple in the east, and the overall building faces south from the north. On the central axis, there are Jixian Gate and Taixue Gate, and Piyong is the center. There are four halls and six halls on the east and west sides, forming a traditional symmetrical layout. .

When the emperor and his party came to the location of the lecture, they found that the place was already full of tribute students and supervisor students who came to observe.

"I have waited to meet His Majesty!"

Seeing the emperor's arrival, the faces of the tribute students and supervisor students were full of respect, and they immediately got up from their seats and said in unison.

"Sit, all sit, and you too."

After Jiajing finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the many officials aside and said.

"I came to Guozijian today to give lectures!"

"If you have any questions, just ask me, I will know everything, and I will say everything."

I saw a warm smile on Jiajing's face, and after looking around, he said so.

Soon, officials from the Guozijian brought seats for Yan Song and others.

In this way, the Gongsheng, Jiansheng, and high-ranking officials of the Imperial College gathered together, waiting for the emperor's lecture.

Jiajing coughed twice, drawing everyone's attention to himself, picked up the ruler beside him, pointed to the sky, and asked everyone.

"Do you think the theory of the round sky and the earth is correct?"

Everyone present was deeply shocked by the emperor's first question.

And Yan Shifan, who was on the side, also understood at this moment the meaning of the previous emperor's finger pointing to the sky when he was in the Weapons Division.

"Your Majesty thinks that the theory of the round sky and the earth is wrong! Is this also the knowledge recorded in the book called Science?"

Perhaps it was because the question raised by the emperor was so shocking that no one dared to stand up and answer it for a while.

After a long time, I saw a Gongsheng frowning tightly, summoned up his courage, and raised his hand.

"Well, come on!"

Jiajing nodded, turned his gaze to this Gongsheng, and said.

"Report to Your Majesty, the students believe that the theory that the sky is round and the earth is correct. Since ancient times, the ring of moments has been regarded as a circle, and the combination of moments has been regarded as a square. The square belongs to the earth, the circle belongs to the sky, and the sky is round. This is an eternal truth!"

"Any other comments?"

Jiajing nodded, looked around, and continued.

"Report to Your Majesty, I also agree with this student's opinion."

Seeing this, Xu Jie stood up from his seat and responded.

"No, it's wrong, you are all wrong!"

After looking around, Jiajing said slowly.
