Chapter 459 Destiny
As soon as Liang Xiao's feet stepped on the stairs, the emperor's voice came from above his head.
"Why did you come?"
Liang Xiao raised his head and saw the emperor's frown brows and gloomy eyes. He quickly bowed and said, "I have already gone out. I met a scholar who came to recommend myself. It took a while."
"Because of a scholar?" Han Yan laughed. "Mr. Liang Jun, which scholar is more important than His Majesty?"
Liang Xiao glanced at Han Yan, smiling and not smiling. "Of course scholars are not as important as Your Majesty, but I am afraid that this will ruin Your Majesty's reputation. Your Majesty is eager to seek talent. As your Majesty's close minister, how can I neglect them? Although I don't do it like Duke Zhou, at least you must maintain superficial etiquette."
Han Yan was speechless. The emperor glanced at him and smiled. "Tell you not to argue with him, but you just don't believe it, what?" He turned around and said to Liang Xiao again: "Don't be polite, come up quickly, and when you have time, let's talk about what kind of wise men you have recruited."
"I didn't keep him, I gave him ten gold and let him go."
"Didn't stay?" The emperor raised his eyebrows and said nothing. He walked to Sima Tan, the Grand Historian, and waved. "Come here and take a look."
Liang Xiao went upstairs and looked around, then he found that Dou Ying was there too. Little Sima Qian stood in the corner, his eyes flashing with excitement. Sima Tan's face turned red, as if he was drunk. After being driven away by the emperor, he went around to the other side. Seeing that, he wanted to drive the emperor away.
In the middle of the house, there is a giant clairvoyance that is six feet long and more than one foot in diameter.
Liang Xiao was a little excited when he saw this Qianliyan, and he was even happier than he had won a marquis himself. He earned thousands of gold. Qianliyan and microscope are two powerful tools to broaden human horizons. The beginning of modern science started with the telescope in Galileo's hands and the microscope in Hook's hands.
However, the telescope in Galileo's hand is simply a terrible figure compared to the clairvoy in front of him.
Liang Xiao suppressed his excitement and walked to the front of the case.
There are two star maps on the table. Even if Liang Xiao had only a little understanding of astronomy, he could see that there were much more stars marked on one of the star maps.
Liang Xiao looked at it for a long time, looking confused. "What are you looking at?"
"I..." Sima Tan said impatiently. As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that he had been rude and quickly glanced at the emperor. The emperor nodded. Sima Tan then continued: "I have observed many stars with my clairvoyance, many stars that I have never seen before. These are all."
Sima Tan pointed to the star map, and his saliva flew everywhere, splashing on the star map. He quickly wiped it with his ink-twisted sleeves.
"So what?" Liang Xiao was ecstatic, but his face became even more confused. "The stars are all in the sky, and if you can't see them, what's the difference?"
"Of course there is a difference!" Sima Tan seemed to have been greatly insulted, widened his eyes and shouted angrily: "This shows that all astronomy ambitions are incomplete now. We are the frog at the bottom of the well."
"What's wrong with the frog in the well?" Liang Xiao laughed and laughed. "Who was born to be omniscient and omnipotent? Does a person's vision always expand step by step? Before I went to the Western Regions, does anyone know what the Western Regions look like?"
Everyone looked at each other and was speechless for a moment. Before Liang Xiao came, they had been discussing this for a long time. Although no one dared to break the paper, they all knew that once these newly discovered stars were announced, the entire astrological theory would be affected, and theories that rely on astrological signs to deduce destiny would all collapse.
Finally, this will involve the question of whether the destiny is true or not.
You know, this is the most troublesome thing for the emperor now.
No one expected that Liang Xiao would look indifferent. He didn't know whether he was knowledgeable and did not realize the seriousness of this problem at all, or did not take it seriously.
However, the example given by Liang Xiao made their anxiety dissipate a lot.
Before Liang Xiao went to the Western Regions, at least the Han people had a very limited understanding of the Western Regions. Now that they knew about the Western Regions, they realized that the world was far beyond their imagination and was at least more than twice as big as they had thought. But what can it be? Apart from the fact that there were many more precious jade and fine wine from the Western Regions, Chang'an did not have any adverse impact on the Han Dynasty.
So what if we find more stars? These stars did not appear today. They have been in the sky, but we just haven't seen them.
"But..." Sima Tan was a little anxious. For him, this was a rare opportunity in his life. Some people have watched the stars for a lifetime, but they can't find a few new stars. In the past few months, he has almost doubled the number of astrological signs, which can definitely be kept in history.
"I know, Tai Shi Ling is going to become famous." Liang Xiao laughed and said, "However, this is the first step. Seeing that star is still very different from truly understanding that star. Just like seeing Mount Hua and climbing Mount Hua, Tai Shi Ling still has a lot of ways to go."
Sima Tan was stunned for a moment, but agreed with Liang Xiao's opinion and nodded.
The emperor calmed down and walked to the window. Dou Ying laughed secretly and signaled Liang Xiao to follow him quickly.
Liang Xiao walked to the emperor and stood quietly.
The emperor turned his head slightly. "Bo Ming, do you really think it's irrelevant?"
Liang Xiao bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I have never believed in the way of responding to heaven and man."
"But... the subjects in the world believe a lot."
"Three people become tigers, and the more people you believe in, it doesn't mean it's right."
The emperor wanted to speak but stopped, and his expression was entangled. Liang Xiao knew what he was worried about. The so-called concern was chaos. In terms of the legitimacy of the regime, the emperors of the Han Dynasty were not confident enough. In the past, now, and in the future, they were still the same. I fooled the people, and even fooled themselves until the end, were all troubles caused by the legitimacy of the regime.
"Your Majesty, is it the sky big or the earth big?"
The emperor was stunned and looked at Liang Xiao with some anger. Liang Xiao was very calm. The emperor's eyes flashed slightly and he said slowly: "Of course it's great."
Liang Xiao laughed softly and said, "Since the sky is bigger than the earth, there is still unknown, so what's the wonder that there is unknown?"
The emperor was silent for a moment and laughed silently. "I don't think it's big or big, it's your heart. No matter what happens, it seems that it's not a thing when you come to you."
"That's because the sky fell and His Majesty was holding him." Liang Xiao said with a smile: "It's great to be with your back to the big tree. With His Majesty's big tree, what's there to be afraid of?"
The emperor glared at Liang Xiao and was about to rebuke him, but he couldn't help laughing out loud.
When Dou Ying and others saw this, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and laughed in cooperation.
The emperor smiled for a while and said, "In your opinion, do you also have to write a fixed pattern to really understand?"
Liang Xiao nodded without hesitation. "I think that if the Taishi Ling can really use a fixed pattern to determine the appearance of these stars, it would be much more empty words than a celestial human response."
"I knew you would say that." The emperor laughed loudly: "Master Dong is really unfavorable for the passing of time, and he got offended you for no reason." He walked to Sima Tan. "You also heard it. Liang Xiao said, you have to write a fixed pattern to be truly discovered. Before this, don't make a statement easily."
Sima Tan's expression changed slightly, he gritted his teeth, and looked determined. "Only! I will obey the saint's order."
"Hmph, even so, you still have achievements." The emperor thought for a while, turned around and said, "From now on, we will increase the rank of thousands of stones and give a son a son to serve as a man."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Sima Tan was overjoyed and gave a deep bow. He quickly pulled Sima Qian to the front and scolded, "I'm not grateful yet."
Sima Qian then realized and quickly saluted. From now on, he will be the official palace official.
Liang Xiao looked around and felt awe-inspiring in his heart. The emperor's method was indeed brilliant, and he used both kindness and power, and he calmly settled Sima Tan. Without writing a fixed pattern, Sima Tan could not announce this discovery. In this way, the court would have plenty of time to consider.
However, with this bug in me, it may not be that easy for you to keep it hidden.
After leaving Tianlu Pavilion, Liang Xiao and others followed the emperor to Chengming Palace. Liang Xiao came on horseback and he was not used to riding a carriage. Dou Ying called him into his carriage. Although Liang Xiao was reluctant, he could not get Dou Ying's face, so he had to sit on it.
Dou Ying said: "Bo Ming, you are still good at speaking and speaking. You can untie the knot in your Majesty's heart in just a few words."
Liang Xiao shook his head. "Wei Qihou has been awarded too much. I know very little about astronomy, astrology and other things, and I have never believed it very much, so I dare to speak out for myself. The emperor has his own decisions, so I can't speak out. If there is any difference between you and me, it's probably because I am a simple person and have no scheming."
Dou Ying tilted her head, glanced at Liang Xiao, smiled without saying a word, obviously disagreeing with Liang Xiao's self-evaluation.
"By the way, what is the matter for us? It's not just for this little thing, right?"
"A small thing? Your heart is really big, this is a small thing?" Dou Ying shook his head. "Maybe, this may be a small thing for you. In addition to this small thing, there is another big thing. Nanyue is not very stable. His Majesty intends to use troops to Nanyue and summon us to wait, probably to plan this big thing."
Liang Xiao smiled. The plan of the Nanzheng was initiated by Dou Ying, and the emperor summoned him to the palace to plan this matter. Even if he was not given the opportunity to visit the battlefield in person, he was a meritorious minister. The martyr was in his old age and had ambitions. Dou Ying, a martyr, had been idle for too long and could not wait to show his abilities.
"Wei Qihou, the southern expedition is not a trivial matter. It can only succeed, not fail. If there is any mistake, you and I will be the sinners that thousands of people are referring to."
Dou Ying was a little dissatisfied. "If you want to achieve extraordinary achievements, you must wait for extraordinary people. Why are you afraid?"
Liang Xiao blinked his eyes and said to him. "Wang Wei Qihou, how many years have you not participated in such a temple?"
Dou Ying's eyes shrank, "Why, do you think I'm old, no longer as old as before?"
Liang Xiao grinned and showed a few smirks. He did not answer Dou Ying's question, but just patted Che Shi. "Wei Qihou, if there is anything to offend later, you can't rely on your seniority and use your seniority to suppress me."
Dou Ying laughed. "Little Master, it seems that you don't have me, Dou Ying, in your eyes. I need to use my seniority to suppress you? Be reasonable and talk about things, no matter people, I still have this kind of demeanor."
"Of course it would be better." Liang Xiao smiled even more and rubbed his hands with excitement. "I was not satisfied with talking to Mr. Dong last time. I was really a little excited to fight with a senior like Wei Qihou this time." -
