The Summoning World of the Great Qin Empire

Chapter 1506 The Prince's Education
Ying Wushuang continued: "According to the opinions of my sons and ministers, the reason why Meng Ke raised such nonsense is to please the public."

"At that time, among the kingdoms of the world, the status of the king was so honorable. This is the truth that ordinary people can understand, and the most important thing is that since the founding of Confucianism, the world has been raging for hundreds of years, and many countries have entered the sky. The stars are like stars, but no country has ever truly believed in Confucianism, and Confucius traveled around the world, and no king has really adopted his learning. Could it be that these kings are all fools? Of course not."

"Therefore, when Meng Ke came here, he said that the people are the most important, the community is second, and the emperor is the least. This is a sensational statement. Perhaps there is a certain possibility that it is because the kings of the world do not love the power of the people, but Rujia made such a statement. speech, it is destined not to be adopted by the court, Shi Nai is against the trend of history."

In official history, ever since Meng Ke went to Dong Zhongshu to write a letter to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to oust all schools of thought on Confucianism, this is a real face-slapping process.

Mencius said that human nature is inherently good, but when it comes to Xunzi, it becomes human nature is inherently evil. Confucianism itself has already had disputes. When it comes to Dong Zhongshu, the lightness of the king has become the divine right of the king. How ironic?

Fu Su was amazed by Ying Wushuang's last sentence: against the trend of history!Dong Zhongshu was able to cater to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty without integrity with Confucianism, which ensured the orthodox status of Confucianism for thousands of years.

Confucianism was the first to talk about benevolence and righteousness and the way of a gentleman, but it turned out to be the first among a hundred schools of thought who didn't want to show shame or go offline to cater to the gentleman.

The so-called benevolence, righteousness and morality are nothing but empty words on the lips of people full of evil.

Fusu felt that what he wanted Ying Wushuang to see through was to see through this relationship, and not to be fooled by the false benevolence, righteousness and morality that the civil servants talked about.

The pillar of the country is the great greed of the country. This statement is not only similar to the saint's immortal thief.

The conversation is still going on, Fusu himself has been the emperor for many years, of course he is well versed in the way of being a king.

Every time Ying Wushuang answers Fusu's questions, he can often draw inferences from one instance, which is also what makes Fusu happiest.

Fusu started talking to Ying Wushuang about the ways of governing deep in his memory, and then... began to talk about natural philosophy.

"The ancients used to say that the sky is round and the earth is round, how can we verify it?" Ying Wushuang heard this, and felt that this was another question that seemed to be common sense, but it was irrational.

"This..." Ying Wushuang hesitated for a moment, "Shangshuzhong said..." At the end, Ying Wushuang's own voice became a little weak.

Fu Su said seriously: "If the sky is really round, then why when standing on the sea, the first thing you see is the mast of the warship instead of the hull?"

"Ah?" Ying Wushuang asked in amazement: "Father, what do you mean... the roundness of the sky is a fallacy?"

"Exactly!" Fu Su said in a deep voice: "Many things the ancients said are illusory. I have also told you the word science. However, these years, I have been busy conquering the world, and I have a lot of things in my heart. It was too late to tell you, so I will tell you directly now."

"The ground we step on is essentially an elliptical planet. It is precisely because it is a sphere that we see the mast first, not the hull. This is the simplest truth."

"My son...my son...Ying Wushuang finds it difficult to make fun of these things.

Fu Su couldn't help laughing: "Many things are like this. You used to think it was true, but it was wrong in essence. In the court, except I dare to say this, I am afraid that no one else will say this. Immediately it will be considered heresy."

"My father's words are true, and my son is also very shocked. If it didn't come from my father's mouth, my son would also think that this is heresy." Ying Wushuang's forehead was already covered with sweat.

Fusu felt that since many things had already been started, there was no need to hide and hold them, so he took out two things from his sleeves, an embroidered handkerchief the size of a palm and a seal, and held them in his left and right hands.

"Wushuang, if you say that I let go at the same time, which one will land first?"

Ying Wushuang was about to speak subconsciously, but suddenly thought that his three views had almost been reshaped by his father's chaos these days, and he hesitated for a while.

"It's right to hesitate. It means you're thinking, and you didn't judge the problem directly with common sense, and you didn't just talk about it." When Fusu was talking, Meng Zhan's voice came from outside the carriage.

"Your Majesty, the army will rest here."

Fusu said: "The imperial guards will rest where they are. Don't be too nervous. After all, this is the territory of our Great Qin. How many assassins from other countries will risk their lives to assassinate me?"

"Here!"

After Meng Zhan withdrew, Ying Wushuang said: "According to common sense, it should be that the heavy objects fall first, but... no, this may also be the emperor's suspicious strategy..."

"Then what do you mean, the two must have fallen together?" Fusu smiled slyly.

Ying Wushuang's mind turned quickly, then nodded and said: "It must be! They must have fallen to the ground at the same time!"

"Well, if you guess wrong, go and lead Meng Zhan's horse for a day! What do you think?"

"Impossible to be wrong!" Ying Wushuang frowned: "If my son can guess wrong, then go and lead Meng Zhan's horse for three days!"

"Okay! As expected of my son, just keep your eyes open!"

Fusu kneaded the handkerchief into a ball, and then let go of his left and right hands simultaneously.

Ying Wushuang watched as the embroidered handkerchief and seal fell to the ground at the same time.

"Boom-"

Yin made a dull sound, Ying Wushuang's eyes widened, and he became dull: "This... this..."

"Remember what you said, three days!" Fusu sat back with a proud face, and took a sip of the breathless tea.

Ying Wushuang got up, picked up the two, and tried ten times in one go!
"This—how could the two fall at the same time?" Ying Wushuang raised his head and asked, "Father! This!"

"What are you shouting about?" Fu Sule said: "This incident tells you that it is not what you are used to thinking, but what it should be. There is an invisible gravitational force on the ground under our feet... just like a magnet. , can suck away the iron close to it, the sphere under our feet is the same, so you understand?"

"There is gravity under the feet!" The doubts on Ying Wushuang's face deepened.

Fu Su continued: "Wushuang, the persimmons are ripe, why don't they fly away towards the sky, but fall to the ground instead?"

"This?" Ying Wushuang was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes flickered, and he said in a very sure tone: "Is this the existence of gravity?"

"That's right!" Fu Su pondered, "All the water between the heaven and the earth flows downhill, and the fruits hanging on the branches will fall down when they are ripe, because of the existence of this gravitational force."
