I'm so cheap, you don't want to hit me, do you?

The earth is round, this is completely nonsense, maybe Wang Xuan was bewitched by someone, someone wanted to use this idiot Wang Xuan to frame the Wang family.

There was an undercurrent in Xianyang City. Wang Ben destroyed the six kingdoms, and he made countless enemies. It is not impossible for someone to make trouble behind his back.

Moreover, Ying Zheng also intentionally left a way out for Wang Xuan, as long as Wang Xuan said he was bewitched by someone, even if that person had run away and could not be found, Ying Zheng had a reason not to blame him or punish him.

Among the crowd, the corner of Yun Zhongjun Xu Fu's mouth twitched.

He also knew something about Wang Ben's son, Wang Xuan.

What Wang Xuan did in Fuping was a prodigal son.

I didn't expect to go to His Majesty's birthday today and talk nonsense. Isn't this a blackmail for the Wang family?

Wang Ben also looked at his son, and kept winking at him.

Wang Xuan was not stupid, so he naturally understood the meaning of Ying Zheng's words.

However, after some careful consideration, he decided to stick to the truth.

He said arrogantly: "Your Majesty, no one ordered it. The earth is round. The world drawn on this globe is 200 million feet. Your Majesty can find someone to verify it."

After the voice fell, the whole hall was already in an uproar.

"Extremely ridiculous, 200 million feet, the land of Kyushu is not that big."

"As we all know, the south of Lingnan is full of mountains, and the east of Liaodong is full of vast seas. The theory of a round earth is purely a lie to confuse people."

"How far is 200 million feet, who can trek so far?"

Many people couldn't stand it anymore and reprimanded loudly.

They thought that Wang Xuan was talking nonsense.

200 million feet, how can there be such a vast land.

"The cricket cricket does not know the age."

Wang Xuan said lightly.

It's fine that these pedantic guys can't accept new things for a while, you should investigate it before you speak, such a direct denial, in Wang Xuan's view, is simply stupid.

It's just that when these words are spoken, many people are full of anger and blood.

Little Zhuzi dared to insult them by uttering wild words.

On the high platform, Ying Zheng's expression was not good-looking, Wang Xuan's words not only scolded the courtiers, but also scolded him too.

Already sullen.

Fusu, who was sitting below, knew his father's temper very well.

Without waiting for Ying Zheng to speak, he opened his mouth and said, "Father, my son thinks that regardless of whether what Wang Xuan said is right or wrong, he should verify it."

"Jianzheng is in charge of the Qin Tianjian. He is familiar with the geography of Kyushu's mountains and rivers, and has experience in going to the ocean. Why don't you invite him to come and see for himself whether the painting on the globe is true or not."

Ying Zheng was originally angry and was going to punish Emperor Xuan directly, but when he heard his son's words, he immediately thought about it, and felt that what Fu Su said made sense.

Whether right or wrong, always be convincing.

Although there is a saying in the world that the sky is round and the earth is round, it has never been confirmed, and Wang Xuan is the son of Tong Wuhou Wang Ben, and he has just made meritorious service.

Now his grandfather Wang Jian is dealing with the wolf clan in the north, if the treatment is unfair, it will inevitably chill the loyal hearts of this family.

So Ying Zheng nodded.

"Come here, go ask the prisoner to come."

After saying these words, Wang Xuan let out a long sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that Ying Zheng would clean himself up without saying a word.

It's just that Wang Ben, Zhang Han and others are not optimistic.

They don't believe in the theory of a round earth at all.

Chapter 282 Stunning

Qin Tianjian is a department set up by Daqin to observe the sky, calculate the solar terms, and formulate the calendar.

The current supervisor of Qin Tianjian is named Bai Yang, and he is an elder of the Tianzong lineage of Taoism.

Taoism is divided into two schools, heaven and man, because they pursue different ideas, and they are constantly fighting with each other.

Tianzong forgot to conform to the general trend, so he got close to Daqin, and Xiaoyaozi, the patriarch of Renzong, was in charge of the famous Taoist utensil Xueji, but his philosophy was completely opposite to Tianzong's, and he walked with the anti-Qin forces.

As the elder of Tianzong, this Bai Yang has advanced cultivation, and he knows astronomy above and geography below, so he is a erudite person.

When he was King Zhuangxiang of Qin, he was summoned by King Zhuangxiang and asked him to enter the court as an official.

But at that time, Bai Yang wanted to go on a long sea trip, so he rejected King Zhuang Xiang's solicitation.

King Zhuang Xiang is broad-minded, but he doesn't care about it.

It's just that someone sends a message to Bai Yang, and Qin Guo will open the door for him at any time.

Of course, Bai Yang was also attacked by many forces at that time. For example, members of the Yin Yang family publicly expressed their dissatisfaction with Bai Yang.

There are so many of us who want to get into an official position and can't get into it. It's better for you to refuse directly. What's wrong, doesn't it seem that we are all villains chasing fame and fortune, and you are the only one who is noble?

Later, King Zhuangxiang of Qin died and Yingzheng ascended the throne.

Bai Yang, who happened to be on a trip, returned to Daqin, so Ying Zheng invited him again.

Bai Yang also agreed, and from then on he served as the supervisor of Daqin, formulating the calendar and observing the changes of solar terms.

In these years, Bai Yang never left his house in Qintian Prison, but he predicted the occurrence of several major events, and gained more and more attention from Ying Zheng.

Bai Yang can be said to be the only person in the world who has traveled all over Kyushu, and has traveled far and wide, so it is naturally best for him to distinguish the authenticity of the map drawn on the Emperor Xuan Globe.

A young eunuch was ordered to come to Qin Tianjian to invite Bai Yang.

Bai Yang likes to be quiet and doesn't like to move, so he didn't even show up for Ying Zheng's birthday.

But since he is a courtier, of course he must obey Ying Zheng's orders.

So not long after, Bai Yang in a white robe appeared in the hall.

Bai Yang is now nearly 70 years old, in this era, such an age is definitely considered a long life.

Along the way, Bai Yang had already heard the whole story from the little eunuch. As a Taoist descendant, Yin-Yang gossip was deduced on the basis of all directions, and now someone said that the earth is round, which made him a little unhappy.

I feel a little disgusted with the name Wang Xuan.

When he came to the main hall and saluted Ying Zheng, he looked at the huge globe standing there.

At the same time, after obtaining Yingzheng's consent, more than a dozen young people walked in from the outside.

They carried a few boxes, and these were Bai Yang's disciples.

And what is contained in the box is the map drawn by Bai Yang's travels around the world.

Since Wang Xuan uttered wild words, claiming that the map of mountains, rivers and communities drawn on the bronze ball, one only needs to see if it can be matched with the map drawn in his hand to know whether he is bragging.

These maps were drawn by Bai Yang's whole life. Bai Yang thought that there is no more detailed map than this in the world today.

"Your Majesty, I'm about to start now."

Bai Yang saluted Ying Zheng, then gave Wang Xuan a cold look.

With a wave of their hands, several disciples opened the boxes one by one, and took out all the sheepskin scrolls inside.

Each piece has a number on it, and it is arranged from the beginning to the end according to the number.

There are always hundreds of sheepskin scrolls in the five boxes, which are spread on the ground to fill up the empty space in the center of the hall.

"Let's start with the land of Xianyang for comparison."

Bai Yang took out the parchment and went to the globe.

"May I ask where is Xianyang on this picture?"

Bai Yang asked.

Wang Xuan pointed to one of the positions.

In comparison, although Huang Xuan's globe is already very large, it is not as detailed as the parchment in Bai Yang's hands.

After all, Wang Xuan also drew it from memory, there is only a place name.

When Bai Yang saw the location Wang Xuan was pointing at, he still had a sneer on his face at first, there was only a dot drawn on it, and the word Xianyang was written on it, but it was not detailed.

It's just that when he compared the maps of several counties around Xianyang, his face gradually became serious.

Although there are some slight errors, after comparison, it is found that the geographic location drawn by Wang Xuan on the globe is more than [-]% similar to the map drawn by himself.

One must know that Bai Yang draws with his own memory, it is impossible to be [-]% accurate, there must be errors.

In comparison, the map on Huang Xuan's globe is more accurate.

Several disciples of Bai Yang beside him also showed surprise.

Bai Yang hurriedly asked his disciples to bring over all the other maps of Kyushu and compare them one by one, and there was almost no difference.

"Quickly bring the overseas maps I drew."

Bai Yang's tone became a little hasty.

Although he spent his whole life traveling around Kyushu and exploring overseas, his manpower was limited after all.

After receiving the map from his disciple, Bai Yang's pupils suddenly shrank after such a comparison.

Still ninety percent similar.

According to the route he used to go to sea in his memory, some of the islands he had encountered emerged one by one.

And the distance between these islands is clearly marked.

This is something that Bai Yang's hand-drawn map cannot do.

"This is the farthest place I have ever traveled. At that time, huge waves suddenly rose in the sea. I originally planned to go on to another island according to the local people. Unfortunately, I had no choice but to return. The location of the island is clearly marked.

The more he looked down, the more Bai Yang frowned.

The pattern drawn on the globe was not drawn to fool people, but Bai Yang felt that it was more accurate than his own hand-drawn map.

The pattern on it reminded Bai Yang of the scenes he experienced when he was traveling back then.
