Seeing Kong huisuo's carriage disappear at the end of the turn, Merton and Li Tai take back their eyes.
"Where will my brother-in-law go again?" Li Tai saw that Merton was ready to leave, but he came up again.
"Back to Mo mansion!" Merton said naturally. He is now a good man in the Tang Dynasty. He will go back to accompany pregnant Changle whenever he has free time.
Li Tai said with a smile, "that's a good feeling. I haven't seen sister Changle for a long time. I just went to visit her today."
"Your Highness King Wei, please!"
Li Tai's reason was so aboveboard that he couldn't find a reason to refute, so he had to bow his hand and invite him.
Along the way, Li Tai's eyes looked at Merton from time to time, and he wanted to stop talking several times.
"Your Highness the king of Wei has something to say. Naturally, my little brother knows everything!" Merton said helplessly.
Li Tai sighed: "I think I'm familiar with books all over the world. My knowledge is no less than that of the world's great Confucianism. Today, I'm convinced. You gave a pulse of Tianzhu numbers to make the calculation much easier. Now you give the Confucian foreign Pinyin characters as an opportunity. Coupled with Kong huisuo's wisdom, it must be a long time before the method of homonymy will be created, and Confucianism must be even better A step, your gentle word is enough to make a hundred schools rise, which makes me sigh as a stop. "
It has to be said that Merton's performance just now really shocked Li Tai. It seems that there are endless means in Merton's hands, which can make an insignificant hundred families prosper.
Merton stalled and said, "the study of foreign lands is right there. Mo was just the first to learn about it. Mo was just a porter and should not be praised by his Highness the king of Wei."
"Although everyone knows this, under the leadership of brother Mo, many students in the world are interested in foreign studies. However, most of them return empty handed. Brother Mo is the only one who has been able to find gold in the waves from the seemingly backward and vulgar foreign unique studies. I really admire him." Li Tai couldn't help sighing.
"Mo is just the first person to eat crabs?" Merton said calmly, not proud of his achievements.
"The first person to eat crabs, what's the explanation? Why has Wang never heard of it? Besides, no one has eaten crabs." Li Tai said strangely, and was instantly aroused by a strong thirst for knowledge.
Merton laughed and said, "this is a metaphor, but it comes from Mozi's Secret works."
"Oh!" Li Tai was very interested in this mysterious book of Mohism. Unfortunately, Merton never showed it to anyone.
Merton Lang said, "it is said that in the state of Chu in the spring and Autumn period, there was a ferocious beetle with double claws and eight feet in rivers and lakes. It not only digs holes to make rice fields short of water, but also hurts people with claws, so it is called" human trap. "
Li Tai suddenly thought that this human insect must be the crab.
"Later, when the state of Chu controlled the water supply, it sent a strong man PLO to supervise the work. The intrusion of human insects seriously hindered the project. PLO came up with a way to dig a ditch around the city and fill the ditch with boiling water. (the popular version is like this! It's a little exaggerated) When the beetles came, they fell into the ditch and burned to death. The scalded beetles were red and gave off an attractive delicious smell. PLO curiously broke off the shell, and the smell was stronger. He dared to bite. Unexpectedly, the taste was fresh and delicious than anything. So the insect pests feared by people became a household food, and everyone scrambled to eat it, so they caught people The plague of insects is solved.
In order to appreciate the PLO, who dared to be the first in the world, later generations added the word "insect" under the word "solution", calling the human insect "crab", which means that PLO conquered the human insect and was the first crab eater in the world. "
"It turns out that crab characters come from this way. This is the essence of hieroglyphics!" Li Tai suddenly said. At the moment, he was very interested in the Chinese character hieroglyphics proposed by Merton.
Merton nodded and said, "the Mohist Saint sighed with emotion when he heard it: the crab is terrible, ugly and ferocious. The first person in the world to eat crab is a real warrior!"
Li Tai nodded deeply. The first person to eat crab is very admirable. Who dares to eat it if he is not a warrior?
Just after Li Tai thought the story was over, he didn't expect Merton to continue: "the first crab eater really needed a lot of courage, but he also harvested delicious food that ordinary people can't taste. As the first one to dabble in foreign unique knowledge, the Mohist school, just like the first crab eater, although he paid a high price, he also gained a lot."
When Li Tai heard the speech, he couldn't help feeling it. He solemnly said, "the Mohist school really deserves it."
"Risk and opportunity are equal, just like those Hu merchants who come thousands of miles to buy silk. Even if they are full of bones in the desert, they can't stop them. The difference between Mohism and them is that what they want is wealth, and what Mohism wants is knowledge." Merton said.
With the rise of Tianzhu numbers, Confucianism has gained Pinyin characters, not to mention Mohism. Today, I have the courage to ask my brother-in-law to give me some advice on my geography. I wonder if there can be a unique foreign school to learn from. "Li Tai said sincerely.
"Geographical pulse? Does King Wei want to be the first person to eat crabs?"
"Of course!" Li Tai nodded and admitted without hesitation.
"So..." before Merton answered, he suddenly felt that the carriage stopped. He immediately knew that the Mohist house had arrived. At that moment, the words changed, "there have been Mohist children returning to the Mohist house to report. Compared with Changle, he has already learned that his Highness the king of Wei is coming. It's better not to keep Changle waiting."
"Well, I haven't seen sister Changle for a long time." Li taiqiang held back his anxiety and said patiently.
As soon as he entered the Mo mansion, he saw that the pregnant Princess Changle had been waiting outside the hall. Seeing that Li Tai and Merton came together, he couldn't help smiling and said, "third brother, how can I come to see my sister today?"
When Li Tai saw Changle, he couldn't help smiling and saying, "Your Majesty chose the Royal representative to see the discussion of hundreds of families. The prince's brother's foot injury is not more than being cultivated. It just involves the third brother's local chronicles. The father and the emperor chose the third brother to come. It's not easy to go out of the palace and come to see you."
Among the children of empress Chang sun, although Li Tai and Li Chengqian have begun to compete, they are very close to Princess Changle. Seeing Li Tai come to visit, Princess Changle is naturally in a great mood.
"The third brother doesn't have to worry. My sister goes to the maternity and children's Hospital for prenatal examination on time, but President Zhang has got the true story of doctor sun. The fetus in my sister's abdomen is very healthy." Changle said happily.
Before that, everyone envied that Princess Changle was born noble and was the legitimate Princess of the Tang Dynasty. She was loved by thousands of people. Now Princess Changle is even more enviable because she married a good husband. In order to make her wife give birth smoothly, she set up a hospital herself. This is what she loves.
Li Tai gave Merton a satisfied look. For his kindness to Princess Changle, he didn't care about calling his brother-in-law.
"I believe my brother-in-law is not only a good husband, but also a good father. In today's debate, my brother-in-law publicly proposed to set up a kindergarten for his unborn nephew in advance to let him spend his childhood happily?" Li Tailang said. In order to get Merton's advice, he picked up good words to help Merton.
"Kindergarten?" Princess Changle couldn't help looking at Merton tenderly when she heard Li taixiang's idea of kindergarten.
"This is just an idea. I'm afraid our children can't go to school until it has been implemented in Mojia village for three years," Merton said.
"My brother-in-law is Hua Ben. Wang naturally trusts me, and brother Mo never misses anything he wants to do, and he has made many tricks. Just now, brother Wang wanted my brother-in-law to give me some advice on the local chronicles?" Li Tai said again.
When Merton heard Li Tai mention it again, he was helpless and knew that he could not avoid it this time.
"In fact, the opportunity of geography is not outside the territory, but in the Tang Dynasty and around us." Merton solemnly said.
"Right next to me." Li Tai couldn't help but look around subconsciously.
Merton was neither funny nor funny. What he said was beside him. Naturally, it was an exaggeration.
"I wonder how his royal highness Wei measured geography on weekdays?" Merton asked.
"It's natural to send people to investigate and measure in person," Li Taili said of course.
"That is to say, except those who measure in person can see xiongshan mountains and rivers, but others can't see them?" Merton shook his head.
"This..." Li Tai vaguely grasped something, but he always felt a layer of fog blocking it.
"But one of our hundreds can make people who have never seen the mountains feel like they are on the scene," Merton said again.
"What my husband said is a poet. Some famous works often make people feel like they are on the scene and have endless aftertaste." Changle said in his heart.
Merton shook his head and said, "although some famous works are unforgettable, such works are very few. How can they cover the geography of the world?"
"Painter!" suddenly Li Tai came out with a flash of inspiration.
