Jiufujin is beautiful and charming

Chapter 35 Him, Aixinjue Luo Xuanye, watching the sky from a well?
Brother Jiu sent good wine to the door, so naturally Dong E Qishi was full of joy.

Weng and his son-in-law enjoyed this meal again.

When Brother Jiu came out of Dong E's Seventy's Dutong Mansion, with a faint smile on his face, he turned his head to look at Dexi, the original drunkenness seemed to dissipate in an instant.

"Does Fujin have any rare items, did you ask?"

Delivering wine to the door, Brother Jiu is naturally a drunkard who doesn't care about wine.

It's a pity that Dong E Qishi, the father-in-law, is too hospitable, so he dragged Brother Jiu to talk endlessly, so that Brother Jiu couldn't even find a chance to meet his own Fujin.

"Back to the master, Fujin said that there is a continent in the far east, where there is a tree that can cry, and that the tears of this tree, that is, the sap, are very useful."

"The far east? The country of Wa?"

Brother Jiu frowned slightly, why hadn't he heard of this crying tree?Tree, still cry?What is this weird?

"Back to the master, what Fujin means is probably not the country of Wa. If it is the country of Wa, Fujin won't be able to find it."

"Oh, yes, Fujin said, this is what a missionary from the West said."

Dexi slapped his legs violently, thinking of what Yun Yi said at the beginning.

"Missionaries from the West!"

"Let's go, let me go to Qin Tianjian for a walk!"

There are many Western missionaries in Qin Tianjian, and they are all well-educated and knowledgeable people.

Brother Jiu was thinking, it shouldn't be difficult to know this tree that can cry.As for finding such a tree, it is even less of a problem.After all, how could the Qing Dynasty not be able to do what Westerners could do?
It's a pity that the reality gave Brother Jiu a solid slap.

None of the Western missionaries in Qin Tianjian had heard of this weeping tree.Of course, they knew about this continent in the far east, and they even gave a description to Brother Jiu.

"go back!"

After undergoing a realistic beating in Qin Tianjian, Brother Jiu was a little bit uninterested.

The words of these Western missionaries gave Brother Jiu an unprecedented thought shock.

As early as the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the arrival of the Western missionary Matteo Ricci made Chinese people understand that the earth is a sphere.But it's just that I know that I still don't know much about things outside the country.

After the founding of the Qing Dynasty and until the present Kangxi Dynasty, Chinese people knew very little about overseas affairs.

The idea of ​​a big country being a state is still rooted in the minds of Chinese people.

As the elder brother of the prince, Brother Jiu, this kind of thinking is especially serious.

But today, after listening to the various overseas places described by these Western missionaries, Brother Jiu's thoughts have encountered an unprecedented shock.

He even got a rough map of the world.

Of course, this so-called world map is so simple and outrageous, if Yun Yi saw it, he would probably vomit blood from laughing.

Brother Jiu, who turned back to the palace, was not idle, but went to see Kangxi immediately.

"My son kowtowed to Huang Ama!"

After seeing Kangxi, Brother Nine respectfully and politely came forward to meet him.

"Get up and talk!"

Kangxi was reviewing the memorial, and heard Liang Jiugong's report saying that Brother Jiu asked to see him, which made Kangxi very curious.He knows what elder brother Jiu is busy with recently.

Even Concubine Yi got the ugly and distinctive sachet, Kangxi knew it all.

Seeing that his son suddenly stopped talking about his children's affair, but came to see him, Kangxi was quite puzzled, and naturally he wanted to see him.

"Huang Ama, look at this!"

Brother Jiu took out the world map hand-painted by Western missionaries from his arms, and placed it in front of Kangxi.

Kangxi looked down, couldn't help but smiled, and said, "I know this!"

"Huang Ama, the world is so big?"

"Our Great Qing has only such a small amount!"

Brother Nine looked at Kangxi in astonishment, "Didn't you say that the Western countries are located in the area of ​​Malawi? But on this map, they are not like this at all!"

"This, I do know!"

Kangxi smiled slightly, "During the Wanli period of the former Ming Dynasty, Matteo Ricci, a Western missionary, came to court and presented the "Pictures of the World". , if you are interested, you can take a look!"

"My son is interested!"

Brother Jiu responded impatiently.

When Kangxi saw Brother Jiu's eagerness, the smile on his face became even wider.

"Yinzhen, can you tell me, what is the purpose of this Kunyu Ten Thousand Kingdoms Map?"

Kangxi looked at Brother Jiu with a smile, and was really curious about Brother Jiu's abnormality.

"Huanghuang Ama, I heard people say that in the far east, there is a tree that can cry. At first, I thought that this eastern land refers to the country of Wa. But I asked the missionary of Qin Tianjian Only then did my son know that my son was a bit of a spectator in the past."

"By the way, Huang Ama, those missionaries all said that we live on one big ball. Is that true?"

Brother Jiu answered Kangxi's question, and then threw a question to Kangxi.

Kangxi was silent for a moment, and said, "I don't know how to answer this question for you!"

"When I ascended the throne, there were Tang Ruowang and Nan Huairen in the court. They also admired the theory of the roundness of the earth. At that time, Yang Guangxian, the supervisor of Qintianjian, strongly opposed it, saying that if the earth was round, wouldn't there be a head?" On your feet?"

"At that time, Oboi was in power, he recognized Yang Guangxian's words, and many people died!"

"what!"

Hearing Kangxi talk about this past, Brother Jiu couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Huang Ama, what do you think?"

"I think Western learning is quite useful. As for whether the land under our feet is square or round, it doesn't seem to have a big impact."

Kangxi spoke lightly, obviously not very interested in this question.

"Huang Ama, I want to send some people to visit this new continent!"

Brother Jiu thought about it, and felt that what Kangxi said was also reasonable, no matter how round his land was, that was the case anyway.However, this new continent is different.

"Why?"

Kangxi sat up slightly, and looked at Brother Nine, "Judging from the Kunyu Universal Map, this new continent is tens of thousands of miles away from my Qing Dynasty. Is there any point in your labor and effort to go there?"

"Huang Ama, this son-in-law thinks so!"

Brother Jiu took a deep breath and slowly expressed his thoughts.

"Westerners are here, and their footprints are still all over the world. But we are here in the Qing Dynasty, and we only have this understanding of the world!"

"Huang Ama, don't you think we seem to be watching the sky from a well?"

Brother Jiu's question made Kangxi stunned for a while.

He looked at the rough so-called world map in front of him, and at the circle drawn by Brother Jiu's hand, he felt a little cold for no reason.

Sitting well and watching the sky!

He, Aixinjue Luo Xuanye, is watching the sky from a well?
