Chapter 644: Eunuchs also need respect.
Ye Kun nodded: "Tomorrow we will hold a court meeting to receive the Loulan envoy and the Kushan Empire's envoys."
In fact, we all know without meeting that the envoys from the Kushan Empire are still here to protest.
Because Qin Erwu and Song Poliu fought for territory on the Indian Peninsula and took over a dozen tribes, they were nominally vassal states of the Kushan Empire.
As the battle line advances, they will soon come into direct combat with the Kushan Empire.
The Kushan Empire could not defeat Ye Kun, nor did it dare to fight, so it could only continue to protest or make economic concessions.
This is the tragedy of a weak country.
What else can they do besides protest?
After the nine-department meeting, Ye Kun had to go to the university town to solve problems for the big guys in the School of Mathematics.
The School of Mathematics has been officially established, and more than half of the country's top mathematics experts have arrived, totaling more than seventy people.
The funny thing is, there were more than a dozen Romans, two from the Parthian Empire, and two from India...
However, these people have already surrendered to China, obtained the status of Chinese citizens, married Chinese beauties, established families, and have mixed-race children.
On the podium, Ye Kun asked:
"Have you solved the three problems I left a few days ago? One is whether an infinite loop of 0.99 equals one, one is the mathematical proof that one plus one equals two, and one is the actuarial calculation of pi."
About ten mathematicians in the audience raised their hands.
Ye Kun nodded and asked everyone to go on stage and speak one by one.
Two Roman mathematicians worked together to accurately calculate the value of pi, and with the help of the high-precision measuring ruler invented by Ye Kun, they pushed pi to nine decimal places.
Ye Kun took a look and found it was absolutely correct.
The others handed in their assignments separately.
However, the argumentation process is not rigorous enough.
Ye Kun affirmed everyone's thinking, and then used the "error elimination method" to prove that 0.99 infinite loop equals 1. Then he used analogy and induction to prove that one plus one equals two.
All the mathematicians in the audience applauded together, and their emotions were aroused.
Ye Kun also explained some knowledge of advanced mathematics to everyone, and then gave some research directions, encouraging everyone to continue exploring, collect the results, and compile them into mathematical works.
There were also three very smart young mathematicians. Ye Kun asked them to follow him, taught them personally, and gave them guidance whenever he had time.
He Tiantian smiled and said, "It turns out that one plus one equals two. This can really be proven. The emperor is very knowledgeable, and no one in the history can compare to him!"
"Tiantian, you've also learned how to flatter."
Ye Kun smiled and said, "Twenty years from now, we will have a large number of college students who can reach the average level of today's mathematics department. The mathematics department at that time will be even more powerful."
Jin Feng said, "Your Majesty, I have been following you these days, and I feel more and more that I don't have enough knowledge. Can I continue to follow you and continue to learn?"
Ye Kun shook his head: "Astronomy and meteorology work all need you to preside over, you can't follow me around. But I allow you to second mathematicians and physicists from the School of Mathematics to participate in astronomical research and calculations. When you are in Zhuo County, you can also come to the School of Mathematics at any time to communicate and discuss with everyone."
During this period, Ye Kun also taught Jin Feng a lot of things, and Jin Feng also needed time to digest them.
Jin Feng nodded, and suddenly had an idea: "By the way, Your Majesty, can we calculate how heavy the earth is?"
Ye Kun was stunned, then smiled and said:
"Of course you can. You can do some calculations when you have nothing to do and treat it as a research topic. The School of Mathematics and the School of Physics can also participate. This is because many subjects are related."
High school students in later generations all know that the mass of the Earth is 600 trillion tons, but the ancients did not know.
To calculate the mass of the Earth, we must use the law of universal gravitation.
But there is also a simplest way, which is to estimate the density based on the volume of the earth and get the calculation result.
Ye Kun has explained the law of universal gravitation in detail, and Jin Feng can now use it skillfully.
Huang Ye followed Ye Kun and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, if Lord Jin randomly calculated a number, would you know it?"
"I know the mass of the Earth, the Moon, and even the Sun. You can calculate it and I will know whether it is accurate."
"You haven't weighed it, so how do you know?" Jasmine became even more curious.
Ye Kun smiled and said, "Eunuch Huang, you are very smart, but it's a pity that you didn't go to college. If you went to college, you would understand this truth. There is something called the law of universal gravitation, which can be calculated."
Jin Feng smiled evilly and said, "You are a eunuch, so you can't understand the feelings of a man in the wedding night. Since you have never been to college, you naturally don't understand these advanced math problems."
Huang Ye blushed and lowered his head.
Ye Kun glanced at Jin Feng and whispered, "Eunuchs should also be respected. Lord Jin, you have to apologize to Eunuch Huang."
Calling someone a eunuch to his face and saying that he can't understand a man's feelings during his wedding night, isn't that a slap in the face?
The psychological shadow area of Eunuch Huang at this time was probably infinitely large, and the solar system could not contain it.
Jin Feng was reminded and suddenly came to his senses. He quickly straightened his clothes and bowed to Eunuch Huang to apologize: "Eunuch, I spoke without restraint. I really deserve to die."
Huang Ye also quickly returned the greeting: "Master Jin, thank you for your courtesy. It's alright."
Jin Feng lowered his head and stepped back, hiding behind Ye Kun.
Ye Kun smiled: "Huang Ye, let's go back to the palace."
When he returned to the palace, he met Jiang Yourong who had sent someone to invite him.
Ye Kun rushed to Fengyi Palace and said with a smile: "My queen, is there anything you want to tell me?"
"How dare I give orders to the Emperor? This is Princess Mingzhu's dowry. We have prepared it. Please take a look at the list to see if it is in order."
"Your Highness has always done things properly."
Ye Kun looked at the list and nodded, "Let's do it according to this. After Princess Mingzhu's wedding, I will also go to Chang'an and Yizhou for inspection. By the way, your Majesty, let's go together."
Jiang Yourong sighed: "But my father died just last year... Is this appropriate?"
Ye Kun smiled and said, "I asked He Kangju, and he said that the queen can go on tour. When you were in Chengdu, you also had many friends among the people. Xiaofang, the daughter of the tofu maker, and the sister-in-law of the bamboo weaving shop often visited you. When you return to Chengdu this time, you should also visit them."
Jiang Yourong smiled and said, "But if we all leave, who will take care of the palace?"
"Yuejuan said that she will stay to manage the specific affairs of the palace and look after the little princes and princesses. This time, only you and Baochan will go with me."
"That's fine, I'll go out and take a look too. Chang'an City is very famous, but I haven't been there yet." Jiang Yourong raised his eyebrows and smiled, then said:
"In addition to Princess Mingzhu, there are several other princes and princesses who have reached adulthood. Your Majesty, is it time to arrange marriages for them?"
Ye Kun thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, wait a little longer. I'll make arrangements after I finish my tour."
The emperor's daughter will never have trouble finding a husband.
The emperor's son will never have trouble finding a wife.
Except for Crown Prince Ye Feng and Princess Mingzhu, the rest of the princes and princesses were all under sixteen years old.
You can wait a little longer.
Jiang Yourong was thoughtful and said with a smile: "But Huang Jingzu is also your son. He is already 18 years old, but his marriage is still not settled."
Huang Jingzu is Yu Lian's son, but Ye Kun treats him as his own.
Ye Kun thought for a moment and said, "I wonder if Huang Jingzu has a crush on someone? If so, I can be the matchmaker."
