At the beginning, Qin Shi Huang traveled to my home

Chapter 988: The Unkind Shen Kuo

"Senior Shen Kuo, do you have some conflicts with Senior Su Shi?" Li Wu asked. Shen Kuo was confused by the question of the little immortal. He and Su Shi?

Shen Kuo shook his head and said, "Little Immortal, there is no conflict between us and we have a pretty good relationship." He didn't understand why the little immortal said that. His relationship with Su Shi could be said to be pretty good.

We have similar interests and sometimes drink together.

Su Shi in front of the sky curtain was also a little confused. He felt that he had no conflicts with Shen Kuo, and they even had a very good relationship. They were still writing a book together, which has not been completed yet. They discussed things from time to time, so their relationship was good.

Su Zhe pulled Su Shi's sleeve and motioned him to look at the barrage, where people from later dynasties had already spoken out.

After reading this, Su Shi felt like the sky had fallen. Wow, Shen Kuo actually treated him like that, even though he considered him a good friend.

After seeing this, others didn't think it was strange. In official circles, many things are beyond one's control.

Even good friends can become enemies because of their different positions. There are many such things.

So for many officials, this kind of thing is too common. They are accustomed to it and it happens to them quite a lot.

"I wonder why you ask this, little immortal?" Shen Kuo asked in confusion, but he could more or less guess it, because of the relationship between Su Shi and Wang Anshi. Su Shi opposed Wang Anshi's reform, and he, Shen Kuo, stood on Wang Anshi's side.

"I think I guessed it," Shen Kuo gave a wry smile. Xu Xiake looked at Shen Kuo and consoled him, "Senior Shen Kuo, are you okay?"

Shen Kuo shook his head and said, "Nothing, nothing." He was just sighing. There was nothing unacceptable. In fact, he should have thought of it earlier.

"I'll get to that later, so I'll continue," Li Wu didn't know what to say. Sometimes it's just like this. People have different standpoints and obviously have no grudges against each other, but they still have to fight to the death.

"Senior Shen Kuo, you were the first to prove that the Earth's magnetic field and the geographic North and South Poles do not completely coincide, and that magnetic declination exists. This was more than 400 years before Columbia discovered the magnetic declination phenomenon when he crossed the Atlantic.

Moreover, Mr. Shen Kuo, you were the first person in the history of Chinese mathematics to use chord-arrow to calculate the approximate value of arc length.

Made important contributions to the development of Chinese plane geometry.

In addition, Mr. Shen Kuo, you were the first person to name petroleum.

Oil, Senior Shen Kuo, you don’t even know how powerful your discovery of this thing is.

Let’s put it this way: the cars we drive now are made of gasoline refined from petroleum.”

"Little Immortal, you mean that petroleum can be refined into gasoline," Shen Kuo rolled his eyes. If they could refine it, could they trade cars with the little immortal?

Then you won’t be afraid that the big guy will eat your food, right?

The eyes of the others also lit up.

Li Wu nodded and said, "Yes, but you don't have the technology yet. Don't be too anxious, old ancestors. You have to take it step by step. You can't become a big fat man in one go."

The three of them nodded repeatedly, "Little Immortal, you are right, you are right." They were too excited. They never thought that oil could have such a function.

Moreover, there are so many cars in later generations, and they are everywhere. How much oil will they consume?

The ancestors in front of the sky were also a little disappointed, but what the little immortal said was right, it should be developed slowly and not too hastily.

Things are getting better now. We have to take it slow, step by step.

……

"When you, Shen Kuo, were inspecting water conservancy in Liangzhe, you met Su Shi, who was then demoted to the position of Tongpan (Prefectural Magistrate) of Hangzhou.

After you met Mr. Su Shi, you hit it off immediately and discovered that you had the same interests and hobbies, so you decided to study traditional Chinese medicine.

Later, Mr. Shen Kuo and Mr. Su Shi jointly compiled "Su Shen Liang Fang", which recorded the method of artificially extracting sex hormone crystals for the first time, which is of great significance in the history of science.

So, your relationship with Senior Su Shi is indeed quite good," Li Wu also nodded in the affirmative, meaning that they have a very good relationship now and are good friends, but it will not be the same later.

Shen Kuo nodded. That’s exactly what happened.

"But," Shen Kuo pursed his lips when he heard the little immortal say "but" again. Very good, he already had a bad premonition.

"At that time, Senior Shen Kuo asked Senior Su Shi for his recent poems on the pretext of something, and Senior Su Shi gave him a handwritten copy.

Senior Su Shi never expected that you would stab him in the back." Li Wu glanced at Shen Kuo with resentment. Shen Kuo touched his nose awkwardly. Um, ahem, how should I put it? He didn't know how to explain this matter.

"After returning to the capital, Senior Shen Kuo annotated each of your poems and essays, accusing Su Shi of slander and slander. This was presented to Emperor Shenzong of Song, and became the core evidence that later ignited the Wutai Poetry Case."

Li Wu looked at Shen Kuo without any reaction, his face not blushing and his heart not beating fast.

Li Wu didn't say anything else, but Su Shi in front of the sky curtain gritted his teeth. This Shen Kuo, Shen Kuo, made him so angry.

"In 1074 AD, you, Shen Kuo, served as the Inspector General of the Western Route of Hebei Province. After taking office, you proposed the idea that 'the bow has six virtues.'

It is recommended to produce a large number of Shenbi bows to resist the invasion of northern peoples.

Senior Shen Kuo, you also revised the 'Nine Armies Tactics', dividing the nine armies into nine camps, each forming its own formation, which was flexible and changeable during battle and was named the 'Border State Formation'.

In the diplomacy with the Liao Kingdom, the Liao Kingdom asked the Song Dynasty to redivide the border, and the two sides were deadlocked on this issue.

Mr. Shen Kuo, after your field investigation, you found that the Liao people were not familiar with the geography of the Song Dynasty.

If the borders were redrawn, the territory of the Song Dynasty would increase instead of decrease.

So, Mr. Shen Kuo submitted a memorial to the court and agreed to the conditions of the Liao Kingdom, which caused a big mistake for the Liao Kingdom.

"Senior Shen Kuo, your geography is so impressive that the Liao people are left speechless and have made a huge joke," Li Wu laughed heartily.

Shen Kuo also laughed. He could imagine how angry the Liao people must have been at that time.

He wanted to take advantage of the Song Dynasty, but he failed to do so and instead his land became smaller. He really deserved it.

The Song people in front of the sky curtain also made fun of the Liao in the barrage. The Liao people were so angry that they jumped up and down. These cunning Song people were really too much.

However, this time, they didn't know whether they could put Song under their feet. Song was too strong now, and he had the protection of the little immortal. There were too many people from Song who were on the list and went to the afterlife, and there were only a few people from Liao who went there. How could they compare?

The little immortals all stood on the side of the Song people. In fact, many people in the Liao Kingdom had already been shaken. Many people had the same idea. They would support whoever could give them enough food and clothing, and they didn't care who was who.

The other dynasties were watching the quarrel between Liao and Song, and they were all watching the show. If they had melon seeds, they would have started cracking them.

"In 1076 AD, Senior Wang Anshi was dismissed from his position as Prime Minister!"
