I'm not a genius in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 370
The three textbooks were passed around among the big bosses, and the atmosphere in the imperial study gradually became silent, and Li Shimin's complexion was even more complicated.After a long time, His Majesty Li Er raised his eyes from the book and tapped on the cases lightly.

"Come here, I invite Kong Yingda, who is forbidden to drink in the Imperial Academy, Wang Shigu, the mathematics professor of the Imperial Academy, and Yuan Tiangang, the master and apprentice of the Taishi, to come and see us."

The three textbooks are completely different from the traditional enlightenment textbooks. More importantly, some of the contents and symbols in them are unheard of by myself and others, but they are self-contained. It is a theory that has never been seen before. .

The rise of new learning has been a major event worthy of great attention in all dynasties, especially when this kind of new learning is still related to education, it cannot be overemphasized.

Li Si burned books and buried Confucianism, Dong Zhongshu only respected Confucianism, the religious war in the West is a battle of ideas and a battle for survival.In academics, especially mainstream academic orthodoxy, it has never been about drinking and chatting, but with cold and cruel bloody storms.

"A few days ago, Kong Jijiu visited the old minister to invite him. He said that he had obtained a new set of phonetic notation from the Marquis of Wang County. He wanted to invite the old minister to compile a Chinese dictionary together. The great cause, the old minister is busy with official duties, so he didn't dare to agree rashly, isn't his so-called method of phonetic notation just this kind of symbol?"

Wei Zheng looked at the textbook in his hand and said thoughtfully.Although they don't know the Chinese pinyin, it doesn't affect their inference. After all, in the textbook, there are pinyin on each word, and they can draw a conclusion after inferring back and forth.

"Some time ago, Kong Jijiu also invited Weichen. It seems that this is the most likely."

Fang Xuanling twitched her beard and nodded in agreement.His Majesty Li Er nodded. He had heard about this matter before. After all, the matter between Kong Yingda and Mr. Yan was quite a commotion. Almost all the well-educated Confucians in the government and the opposition had received similar invitations.However, some time ago, the court had been busy with the funeral of the Supreme Emperor, so there was no time to respond.In the past few days, I heard that they have already invited many people.

"These mathematics—although I can't understand those symbols and calculations, I have carefully calculated a few of them just now, and the results are correct. What puzzles me is that such abstruse mathematics topics are really suitable for a group of people just now. An enlightened young child?"

His Majesty Li Er frowned. In his opinion, such mathematics textbooks are enough for mathematics, but Wang Zi'an actually used them to teach a group of children?

"I also thought so at first, so before I came back, I went to the classroom to read the homework of the group of students..."

Hearing Li Shimin's question, Li Ke couldn't help but look a little weird, hesitated for a moment, and replied honestly.

"Oh—how's the situation?"

Li Er became interested in an instant, and the rest of the big bosses couldn't help but look at them. The ancients learned and excelled, and they were mostly scholars. Although they are not good at mathematics, at least I still have the qualities of Wang Zi'an, knowing the difficulty of the textbook in the hands of His Majesty Li Er at this time, I really want to know the situation of the children under Wang Zi'an at this time.

"Although there is only one class with dozens of children, there are still age groups. Some are just learning addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, while others have already mastered equations..."

As soon as Li Ke said this, the eyes of the big bosses in the Yushufang instantly widened.A group of mud kids having fun in the mud, after more than two months of learning, they have mastered the equation? !
Ancient mathematics already had a way of understanding equations. It is clearly pointed out in "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" that "groups of things are always miscellaneous, and each has a number. If it doesn’t work, it’s an equation.”

(If I translate it again, will it be said that I have too many words? Haha, I still don’t translate it. In short, there are already linear equations in ancient times.)
But the problem is, this is the record in Nine Chapters of Arithmetic, it is a subject of arithmetic in Guozijian Middle School, how many rural children can master it in two months?

"How is it possible? Your Highness the King of Shu, are you joking?"

As soon as Li Ke said this, even the always serious old man Wei Zheng couldn't help it.Li Ke shook his head with a wry smile, and looked at Li Shimin again.

"It's like turning a stone into gold. I don't understand Zi'an's method at all in terms of educating children, but this is the reason why my mother and concubine want to make my brother worship Zi'an as a teacher..."

The big guys, especially Wei Zheng felt sorry for him. He once taught that little bastard Li Yin a lesson.Not to mention his short temper, even Mr. Kong Yingda, who has always been the most gentlemanly man, was so angry that he jumped three feet high.

It’s fine if you say you can’t learn, everyone turn a blind eye and close one eye, you fucking bully your classmates, contradict the teacher, and disrupt the classroom.
It's better to throw this kind of stuff to Zian.

He suddenly felt that Li Ke's proposal was great.

Otherwise, if Li Er throws the task of teaching Li Yin on his own head, wouldn't he suffer a great crime?

Hearing this, Li Shimin nodded thoughtfully, and was about to speak when the news came from outside that Kong Yingda, Wang Shigu, Yuan Tiangang, and Li Chunfeng were asking to see him.

"Come on, let's take a look at this—"

Li Shimin signaled to send some textbooks of Gaolaozhuang Primary School to these big guys. Kong Yingda had seen Wang Zian's Chinese textbooks before. Forced Wang Shigu.Wang Shigu is a professor of mathematics, and he has a very deep research on mathematics, but what's the matter with you throwing me a Chinese textbook?

Li Chunfeng was leading the class in Gaolaozhuang. He had already flipped through the textbooks countless times, and when he glanced at the book cover, he knew what was going on.Yuan Tiangang was the first to get the moon by being close to the water. With an apprentice like Li Chunfeng, how could he have never read these textbooks, so the two of them handed the textbooks to Wang Shigu who was standing in the middle.

Wang Shigu: "..."

Do you think my officer is easy to bully?
Li Shimin and other big bosses: "..."

Are you so arrogant?

I don't even take a look at the books given by the emperor Laozi!

Wang Shigu was also very helpless, and his nose was sweating while flipping through the textbooks.He is good at mathematics, but other knowledge is not low. Ancient mathematicians were all part-timers, and he was similar. Naturally, he saw the unusualness of this textbook.To put it mildly, it’s called breaking the old traditions and reforming the new, and establishing new learning. To put it bluntly, it’s called rebelling against the classics and forgetting the ancestors.

what should I do?
He was very flustered, and suddenly, his eyes fixed on the paper, and a light flashed in his mind.
