Chapter 102

In the Council Hall of the Imperial College.

Kong Yingda's face was calm and silent. There were three chairs on both sides. There were five Guozi doctors sitting in the Imperial College. The third chair on the left was empty. It was obviously Shen Hongcai's position of the former Guozi doctor.

"Now discuss the restoration of Shen Hongcai!" Kong Yingda struggled to speak after a long time.

As soon as this topic came out, four doctors of law and other disciplines bowed their heads and said nothing. Only Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, said with a red face: "worship Lord, why should Shen Hongcai be restored to his post? Adults know that Shen Hongcai has arbitrarily changed the content of his professor and even adopted the new Mohist mathematics. If you don't punish him, how do others think of my Imperial College and how do they think of my Confucianism."

Liu Yinian's words can be said to stand on the commanding heights of Confucianism. This time, Liu Yinian is the most active in dismissing Shen Hongcai.

In the Imperial College, in addition to Kong Yingda, Liu Yinian is the oldest. He is even expected to take over the post of national son sacrifice after Kong Yingda abdicates.

Unexpectedly, his majesty suddenly attached importance to mathematics, which led to the sharp improvement of Shen Hongcai's status and even a faint posture of surpassing Liu Yinian.

When Liu Yinian heard that Shen Hongcai used Tianzhu arithmetic, he was overjoyed. He directly complained to Kong Yingda and urged him to expel Shen Hongcai from his son prison.

Even secretly instructed Wang Ling and others to speak ill of Shen Hongcai everywhere, in a vain attempt to stink Shen Hongcai's reputation and let Shen Hongcai have no chance to turn over.

I didn't think that Mohist held a famous debate, which directly changed Kong Yingda's attention.

"If Shen Hongcai is expelled, who will teach the arithmetic of the Imperial College?" Kong Yingda said unhappily.

"There are a lot of famous mathematicians in Chang'an city. The descendants of Liu Hui and the descendants of the ancestral family, with our position as the Imperial College, these people are not trying to come to the Imperial College." Liu Yinian said discontentedly.

"Then invite them! See if they want to come!" Kong Yingda said angrily.

Liu Yinian was stunned and didn't understand what was going on?

"I'm afraid Dr. Liu doesn't know yet. Several people who originally intended to serve as a doctor of mathematics have turned down the invitation of the Toastmasters. Now, none of the students who want to have qualifications to enter the Imperial College in Chang'an city are willing to teach in the Imperial College." the doctor of law kindly reminded.

"Why?"

Liu Yinian didn't understand. He immediately seemed to think of something. Suddenly, he was angry and said, "is it Mohist who is making trouble under?"

The doctor of law shook his head bitterly and said, "brother Liu, haven't you seen it? Now no one can study Taoism in mathematics. These students."

"It's just a group of little boys...!" Liu Yinian suddenly thought of the lightning mental arithmetic performance competition of class C students before the debate, that terrible calculation method and shocking performance.

"Got caught!"

Liu Yinian's face changed suddenly. He finally knew what was wrong. The real intention of the mojiazi was not to defeat Class C with a famous debate. Its real intention was to perform arithmetic before the debate. It was a strong expression of the fact that class C's level of arithmetic could not be taught by the old-fashioned arithmetic.

Even if they invite a new doctor of mathematics, they will also face the problem of Shen Hongcai. They still use the original method. Students are more powerful than teachers. If they adopt new mathematics, they will end up in the same way as Shen Hongcai. This is the concern of everyone in Chang'an city. Coming to teach at the Imperial College is not good, but smashes their signboard.

Liu Yinian slowly raised his head and saw that everyone was happy. Fortunately, such a thing did not fall in their discipline, otherwise Shen Hongcai's lesson would be his end.

Kong Yingda saw clearly that this was the conspiracy of Mozi and a kind of forced palace from bottom to top. However, he had to admit that the development of mathematics was beyond control.

Since the emergence of mojiazi, he first aroused His Majesty's interest in mathematics with a problem of disaster victims, then threw out Tianzhu figures to inspire Zu Mingjun to discover parabola, and finally developed extraordinary lightning mental calculation and terrible computing power, which directly deterred all mathematicians who coveted the position of doctor of mathematics.

Now Kong Yingda really understands Shen Hongcai's struggle at that time. Now, apart from Shen Hongcai, he no longer recognizes that he is competent for Dr. Guozi,

In silence, Shen Hongcai's reinstatement was passed.

When Shen Hongcai appeared at the door of bingshe again, all the students in bingshe cheered.

"How are you, master?" all the supervisors shouted respectfully. Everyone is respectful of this master who is bent on pursuing knowledge.

"Thank you?" Shen Hongcai was filled with emotion. He thought this would be the end of his career in the Imperial College. Unexpectedly, these students turned the tide and saved him.

"Merton, thanks to you this time?" Shen Hongcai said solemnly with a face of vicissitudes in a pavilion of the Imperial College.

"The master is serious! What didn't Merton do? It's everyone's credit!" Merton said modestly.

Shen Hongcai smiled, turned off the topic and said, "I've seen lightning mental arithmetic. Although it can save a lot of time, it doesn't seem to be able to promote it on a large scale."

Shen Hongcai expressed his concern. He found that lightning mental arithmetic is not suitable for promotion. If Guozi monitors that he has been cheated, I'm afraid the consequences will be more serious.

"The master is wise, but for Guozi students, lightning mental arithmetic is not a problem. At least it is enough to implement it in Guozi University." Merton's plan is very simple. Even if lightning mental arithmetic can't be popularized among ordinary people, as long as it is popular within Guozi University, no one can shake Shen Hongcai's position.

"It's really broad and profound to learn mathematics. I really watched the sky before!" Shen Hongcai said with emotion. After he was suspended these days, he devoted himself to recalculating the famous works of the sages with Tianzhu numbers. As a result, he found that the previous problems are now solved.

"What the master said is very true. Students believe that all the knowledge in a hundred schools is just the words of one family. Only arithmetic has existed forever since the birth of mankind. People's daily use is inseparable from him, and national finance is inseparable from him. Arithmetic has already penetrated all aspects of mankind. Every progress of mankind is strongly promoted by arithmetic. However, such an important arithmetic has not been achieved In their rightful place, many private schools even teach only four books and five classics without mentioning mathematics, resulting in a group of deformed talents.

"Of course, this is related to the environment, and a large part of the reason is that mathematics is too obscure and difficult to understand. Now Tianzhu figures have greatly simplified the calculation method, which is the opportunity for the great development of mathematics. Merton begged the master to compile a simple and easy to learn, from shallow to deep mathematics teaching book, so that mathematics can be carried forward."

Morton's words shook Shen Hongcai's mind. This is a change in mathematics today. If this textbook can be spread to all academies and private schools in the Tang Dynasty, mathematics can really flourish together.

"Well, you can't break or stand. Since the previous arithmetic is no longer suitable for promotion, I risked the world's condemnation and compiled a new arithmetic book to promote it. Since the new arithmetic uses Tianzhu numbers, I decided to call it mathematics in order to distinguish it from the previous arithmetic." Shen Hongcai said excitedly.

Merton was stunned. He didn't expect that he inadvertently let mathematics be born on the land of China hundreds of years in advance.
