Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 375 Books and Biography
"Write a book and set up a biography, and the name will go down in history!"

Princess Pingyang spoke calmly, with a confident look on her face.

Xue Lang didn't expect that before, Princess Pingyang understood this, but he lost confidence even more, and asked hesitantly: "But, the past dynasties didn't pay much attention to mathematics, right? Compared with Confucianism, mathematics It's just a trivial matter, um...write a book on mathematics, even if it's a biography, will it be famous in history?"

Xue Lang couldn't believe it.

Princess Pingyang chuckled, she didn't know what was going on in her heart, she reached out to touch his face, and said: "Other math books may not attract much attention, but what I want you to write is for enlightenment. of."

Xue Lang's eyes lit up: "Write enlightenment books?"

Princess Pingyang nodded and said: "The Arabic numerals you use are easy to write and calculate. This is the biggest advantage. It is the best for enlightenment. There have been several books on advanced mathematics in the past dynasties. Except for the students of mathematics, few people study it. However, there are almost no ones who can be used as enlightenment. You Yang wrote a book, which can just fill this gap. Moreover, I was able to write in the early Li Guoben. A book that can be passed on for thousands of years, wouldn't it be a great thing for a sage in terms of martial arts?"

Princess Pingyang looked at Xue Lang with a smile, with deep meaning in her eyes.Now, Xue Lang also turned around!How should I say it?This is the gap in political literacy, vision, and structure, and non-IQ can make up for it!Ah, there is such a wife... a little proud, a little proud, what's wrong?

In this world, no matter what dynasty or generation, are there any books that everyone must read?
Enlightenment books!

For example, in the Tang Dynasty, children had to read "Thousand Characters" for enlightenment.If Xue Lang can write a book on mathematics for enlightenment, one can popularize Arabic numerals, and the two will be written books and biographies, and their names will go down in history!

This is the first benefit!The second benefit, for the saint, this is also a merit.Of course, as the founding emperor of the country, the sage has already made great achievements, but when he first established the country, there was such a book. For the sage, it represented his martial arts and his wisdom and martial arts.

Xue Lang couldn't help but imagine that in the era when later generations will have to learn Chinese, mathematics, English, history and geography, when it comes to mathematics achievements, his name will definitely be among them. Thinking about it, I feel excited!Anyway, this matter, no matter how you think about it, is a great good thing!There are no disadvantages!

So, Xue Lang clapped his palms together: "It's done!"

Seeing that he had figured it out, Princess Pingyang smiled and said: "That's it, you can start when you go back! But before that, the name of this number must be changed, it can no longer be called Arabic numerals."

Xue Lang was a little embarrassed: "Will this be too shameless?"

Princess Pingyang laughed, and winked at Xue Lang after laughing: "It's just that I dislike the awkward name, and change it to the Central Plains name, just translate it!"

Xue Lang understands that translation is also re-creation!Silently gave a thumbs up and said firmly: "What you said makes sense!"

Princess Pingyang laughed again, and suggested: "How about changing it to Xue's number?"

"No! Definitely not!"

This is determined not to lose face!The name can be changed, but the name is firmly embarrassing to put his surname on it, and Xue Lang disagrees with everything.

Princess Pingyang seemed a little regretful, pondered, and seemed to want to persuade Xue Lang.Xue Lang had an idea, and hurriedly said: "The writing and calculation of this number is much easier than Chinese characters, why not call it simple number, simple Jane."

Princess Pingyang pondered for a while, then nodded: "Yes! It's called Jianshu."

Only then did Xue Lang pat his chest reassuringly, Princess Pingyang gave him a sharp look, and said, "It's like I'm forcing you into prostitution."

Oh, my palace is out!
Xue Lang gave a wry smile, and said seriously: "I know that this is your good intentions, and I hope this will make me more famous. I know your good intentions. But, I am indeed not a creator, and neither am I. I learned it from other places, I'm sorry to keep it for myself, I can't pass my own test, I'm pedantic, and I failed Jianling your heart!"

Princess Pingyang stared at Xue Lang for a while, saw that Xue Lang smiled with guilt, sighed, and said: "I know you are such a person, and I know you will definitely not agree, but I still can't help thinking about it. Try it, Xue Lang, you are fine, do you know how happy I am with your so-called pedantic?"

Xue Lang's eyes lit up when he was praised, and he smiled so hard that he couldn't see his eyes: "Really? Is it not disgusting?"

Princess Pingyang looked at him with a smile, stretched out her hand to pat the back of his hand, and said: "When I was young, my heart was too cruel. My mother once taught me to be careful in doing things brightly, and to walk in a bright and dignified way. A gentleman fears virtue, and a villain fears evil." Prestige; a villain acts only for himself, while a gentleman benefits others and himself. If you want to succeed, you need a gentleman. Therefore, in everything, you should seek from the straight, not from the crooked. A Niang said that there are as many smart people in the world as crossing the river The crucian carp always thinks of taking shortcuts and taking shortcuts in everything, and it is difficult to become a big weapon in the end."

Xue Lang nodded. Although he had no chance to meet Empress Taimu, he could only hear from Princess Pingyang's words that she was a wise and far-sighted woman.

In this era when the rule of man is greater than the rule of law, the one who is superior is naturally the best with good conduct. This is a gentleman.Such a person has a bottom line in his actions, and when he acts, even if he is trying to gain fame, he will be a little scrupulous.Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, no matter how good the emperor's policies are, they must be implemented by good officials.

Princess Pingyang said: "However, I know my own family affairs. Under A Niang's teaching, although I learned to follow the trend and follow the way of conspiracy, but my heart is not bright, I still can't follow A Niang's teaching. But, if Xiaoyang can do it, I will be infinitely happy."

Is it because of the unity of husband and wife?
For Xue Lang, this is simply the most beautiful love story in the world!Just like the young pioneers who joined the team and took the oath, they promised piously and cautiously: "I will try my best to meet the requirements of my mother-in-law, Jianling, remember to supervise me!"

After finishing speaking, I thought about it, and said embarrassedly: "Actually, I can't be truly bright-hearted. I just have principles and bottom lines. I can write down what I have learned, but let me count it all as my own invention and creation." Yes, to be the founder is really embarrassing! Probably similar to 'a gentleman loves money and gets it in the way'!"

Princess Pingyang laughed so hard that tears flowed down her cheeks. Looking at Xue Lang's eyes, Xue Lang's heart ached. She couldn't help stretching out her arms to hug him, and said in a low voice, "I said I’ve been with you all the time. If you can’t do it, I’ll do it! I’ll carry all the pressure and burdens you have with you. If one person feels heavy, two people may relieve you. I’m stupid , can only think of this way at present.”

"Ok!"

With tears still in her eyes, Princess Pingyang raised her head from his arms, a beautiful smile appeared on her face with tears hanging on her face: "Lang Jun said that there is a way to choose and reject. The word choice is easy to say, but in the world How many people can really do it? That's great! I'm so happy, so happy!"

Xue Lang nodded and said with a smile, "Me too!"

Xue Lang knew that Princess Pingyang might have a great sense of guilt towards Empress Taimu, and this sense of guilt has always weighed on her. However, since the son wanted to support her but her relative was no longer there, this guilt became the biggest regret in her heart.Xue Lang didn't know how to comfort her, and he couldn't think of what to do. The only thing he could do was to be with her, always be with her.The burden on the shoulders and the pressure on the heart can be lighter when two people are together than when they are alone.
