Ming Zuo

Chapter 48 The Return of the Soul
Zhou You and Huang Zongxi really have too much in common.

After both of them are loyal, now they have to take on the heavy responsibility of the family.Get together and talk endlessly.

Zuo Menggeng returned to the other side and said to Hou Fangyu and Zhang Lingxi, "If you want to learn to calculate, it is actually better to use Tianzhu numbers."

He wrote 1234567890 on paper and taught it to two children.Of course, Xu Ruolin and Zuo Xianmei also learned from it.

Some things are good or not, you just need to try it casually.

The dizzying math problems that Hou Fangyu and Zhang Lingxi had been reading before were now changed to the Tianzhu numbers taught by Zuo Menggeng, with the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division symbols, which suddenly became simple and transparent.

The two children were overjoyed, and after calculating a few questions in a row, they completely fell in love with this calculation method.

Xu Ruolin tried silently a few times, looking at Zuo Menggeng like a fairy.

"Where did you learn these things?"

Following Xu Guangqi, Xu Ruolin did not know how many Western missionaries she had met.

There are also many people who are good at mathematics.

But no one can make mathematical problems so simple and clear like Zuo Menggeng.

This is not just a change in method, it has great significance for the development of mathematics.

The expression of mathematics in Europe today is also very different from that in later generations.

Zuo Menggeng brought out the mature academic system of later generations in this way, and the impact was unparalleled.

"When I was in Liaodong, I couldn't go to the battlefield, and I had nothing to do every day, so I thought about these things."

Zuo Menggeng's reason was quickly found. As for whether Xu Ruolin believed it or not, it didn't matter.

Anyway, Xu Ruolin couldn't find traces of this academic system in this world, it could only be Zuo Menggeng's research results.

"You are obviously in the Latin alphabet, why do you say it is English?"

Zuo Menggeng likes to talk to Xu Ruolin very much, because this girl has broken away from the shackles of the Chinese people in this era in many places, and she has a certain sense of progress.

"All the languages ​​in Europa have their origins in Latin. English also evolved on the basis of Latin, so it looks the same, but the pronunciation is different."

But when it comes to the Latin alphabet, Zuo Menggeng flashed a light in his mind and felt that another thing was more meaningful.

"When I was in Liaodong, I thought about the difficulty of learning to read and write, so I pondered a set of pinyin methods that borrowed the Latin alphabet. No one has verified whether it is successful or not. Why don't you help me?"

Xu Ruolin looked at him in a daze, her head full of mucus.It seems that he doesn't know Zuo Menggeng anymore.

For thousands of years, culture and education have always been the top priority in China.

In order to educate, many sages have exhausted their efforts and exhausted their efforts, hoping to make edification easier.

Cangjie Chapter, Yuan Li Chapter, Fan Jiang Chapter, Jijiu Chapter, Thousand-Character Text, Hundred Family Names, Three-Character Classic, there are many materials, and each one is a masterpiece that has left a name in the history.

The young man in front of him is very timid.

Although Zuo Menggeng has given Xu Ruolin a lot of magical performances, Xu Ruolin doesn't think Zuo Menggeng can do anything in enlightenment.

Regardless of the fact that enlightenment is for children to learn rationality, everyone knows that the more basic things are, the more difficult it is.

So many great Confucians can't make progress in this field, you are a young man, why?
But when Zuo Menggeng explained the principle of pinyin, not only Xu Ruolin, but everyone present was stunned.

Huang Zongxi kept rehearsing the usage of pinyin on paper, and the more he used it, the more frightened he became.

"When children are learning, the most difficult thing is the connection between words. With this spelling method, the speed at which children memorize words is undoubtedly several times faster."

The people present, except Zhang Haogu, are not family-educated.The benefits of pinyin are very profound.

Zhou You sighed: "With this method alone, my wise brother can be remembered in history and admired by the world."

Zuo Menggeng did not have much joy.

"The world is in turmoil, and the people are struggling. It is hard to predict the future of this great river and mountain. No matter how good the knowledge is, without the basis for promotion, it is nothing but a dream."

Everyone agrees, but in the face of the turbulent situation, where is the solution?
................................................

This time around, I came here to invite you.

Regarding Zhou Chaorui's past, the court finally chased after the watch to console Zhongliang.

Paper Horse Lane, Zhou House.

The prosperity of the past has long been gone, the walls and tiles of the gate are dilapidated and dusty, and the cobweb-tangled gate is affixed with a hideous seal.

Today's Zhou Mansion is crowded with people outside, and the surrounding water cannot flow.

There are incense tables, red candles, three sacrifices, and nine sacrificial offerings at the entrance to comfort the spirits of heroes and martyrs in the sky.

Hou Xun, Liu Zongzhou, Qian Qianyi, Cao Wenheng, Zhang Zhenxiu, Qu Shisi, Zhang Jimeng, Wu Daochang and other officials came to watch this moment of remorse.

Zuo Menggeng, Liu Yiyuan, Huang Zongxi and other friends accompanied him around, walked out of the crowd and came to the incense case.

An official from the Ministry of Personnel walked out, holding the imperial decree, and stood in front of the incense table.

"Fengtian carries the emperor, the edict said..."

The content is complicated and complicated, with four and six parallels, showing the royal bearing.

The actual content is nothing more than that.

First, he stated the achievements of Zhou Chaorui in the past, and then pushed the sins to the eunuchs.It is the emperor's credit that the loyal martyrs can see the sun again.

Tens of thousands of people were silent, listening to the decree.

As for how much of it was heard, it is unknown.

What Zuo Menggeng noticed was that there were so many people around.

It seems that the acting in the film and television drama is purely a lie.

The most affordable content in the imperial decree is to posthumously honor Zhou Chaorui as the minister of Dali Temple.

The people around were talking a lot, and there were many envious people.

But the officials all frowned, obviously unswerving.

Zuo Menggeng didn't understand and asked Huang Zongxi quietly.

"The emperor is stingy, and he didn't even give him a posthumous title."

Zuo Menggeng understood.

Zhou Chaorui made such a big sacrifice, and the world looks up to him. It stands to reason that when the injustice is rectified, he needs to be rewarded and given generously.

However, Chongzhen only bestowed a Dali Temple Minister posthumously, but did not have the most important posthumous title.

Thinking that Huang Zunsu only gave a posthumous gift to a servant, the new emperor's thoughts of the emperor, even in this kind of thing, did not let go.

The parties traveled around but did not have so many ideas.

Although the court's posthumous gifts were not abundant, at least the Zhou family was able to see the light of day again.

He was very satisfied that the incense of his parents and relatives could be supplied in a fair and above manner.

In other words, there was no expectation for this court, so he was calm.

After reading the first will, I received it from the tour.

Immediately, the officials of the Ministry of Personnel took out a second imperial edict.

Compared with the first one, the content of the second imperial decree is very simple.

A few rough sentences, only one content, is awarded to Zhouyou.

Because of the auspiciousness of the Zhou Dynasty, traveling around can shade officials.

There is no specific official position, whether to serve in the capital or to serve locally, you can choose by yourself when traveling around.

This kind of graceful official position will not have any important positions, and the court is still very generous.It doesn't even have a real job, maybe it's just a name.

Once it is a matter of benefit without cost, the emperor is very generous.

After the two decrees were issued, eight warriors came out carrying a huge plaque, stepped forward and hung it on the gate of the Zhou Mansion, and then tore off the seal.

The red silk was opened, and four gilded characters were written: Gongqing's Mansion.

There are four small characters at the bottom.

Loyal and righteous family.

Zhou Chaorui posthumously presented the Dali Temple Minister, so he could be called the Minister.

All that was supposed to be done, the officials of the Ministry of Personnel knew that it would be an eyesore to stay here, so they hurriedly hid aside and gave the home court to the original owner.

Four years later, it feels like an eternity.

The familiar door has been stepped on every day, and the detailed instructions of the relatives always sounded from behind.

The former residence is still there, the people are very small, and it is the years that can never go back!

Looking at the open door, Zhou You's mind was agitated, and he walked slowly under the watchful eyes of everyone.

After a few steps, his feet were already weak, and he suddenly fell to his knees.In the direction of the gate, kowtow, kowtow again, and kowtow nine times in a row.

The sound was stunned, like a cuckoo weeping blood, which caused tears to be filled with tears.

When he raised his head again, his eyes were already filled with blood and tears, and his screams were uncontrollable.

"Father...Mother...Big Brother...Sister! I...I'm back!"

The snow in the sky is like a glutinous element, and the heaven and the earth are silent and hope for Zhongliang!
The glorious years of the past come to mind, and thousands of people cry loudly.

There is a steel scale in the hearts of the common people. They will always remember who has fought for the world and who has fought for the common people.

Hou Xun's heart was agitated, he took a step and shouted.

"Duke Zhou, Hunxi is back!"

Countless people bowed to pay homage, and their voices shook the sky and the earth.

"Duke Zhou, Hunxi is back!"
