Daming: Is There Imperial Examination Fraud At The Beginning? I Cry As A Candidate During The Test

Chapter 49 World Map

Inside the main hall.

Ye Xuan stood on the podium and asked the emperor's grandchildren who were as round as little dumplings below.

"Which of you can answer my question?"

"Sir, I can answer."

"Sir, I can do it too!"

The group of little guys stood up and rushed to answer.

From their point of view, this issue is much easier than endorsement.

Ye Xuan's eyes fell on Zhu Xiongying, who was about six or seven years old, with baby fat on his face, wearing festive clothes, and a little chubby all over.

"It's up to you to answer."

Ye Xuan picked up the ruler on the table and ordered Zhu Xiongying's dumplings.

Zhu Xiongying bowed his hands towards Ye Xuan and then answered.

“Students believe that our Ming Dynasty has a vast territory and already occupies nine-tenths of the world.

The small countries around our Ming Dynasty are only about the size of a palm and are not as big as our Ming Dynasty. "

He obviously looks like a dumpling and has a childish voice, but he pretends to look like an old scholar. He shakes his head when he speaks, which is very cute and interesting.

Ye Xuan nodded.

"Sit down."

"Anyone else want to answer?"

His eyes fell on the other little dumplings.

Zhu Yunwen and other small groups raised their hands one after another.

Ye Xuan ordered Zhu Yunwen.

Zhu Yunwen said:

"The student's opinion is the same as that of Brother Xiongying."

"Dad once told me that our Ming Dynasty is the most powerful country in the world."

"Those small foreign countries all need to pay tribute to our Ming Dynasty."

"And the territories of those small foreign countries are extremely small, and they cannot compare with our Ming Dynasty."

Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows and looked around at all the dumplings on the seats.

"Does any of you have any other comments?"

However, this group of emperors and grandchildren all agreed with the views of Zhu Xiongying and others.

It is believed that the Ming Dynasty has a vast territory.

In their view, the Ming Dynasty occupies most of the entire world, and other small countries only occupy such a small part.

Zhu Gaochi noticed Ye Xuan's dissatisfaction and couldn't help but stood up and asked:

"Sir, is there something wrong with what we said?"

The faces of the little dumplings all showed confusion.

They were right.

Although other teachers have not taught them, they have heard a little bit about their fathers talking about the Ming Dynasty, so they think they are right.

In their eyes, Ming Dynasty is the most powerful and powerful country in the world, occupying nine-tenths of the world's area.

The other countries are all small and foreign countries.

Around the Ming Dynasty.

Like the stars holding the moon.

Ye Xuan shook his head and said:

"Although the Ming Dynasty has a vast territory, your views are all wrong."

"Incorrect?!"

The young and surprised voices of this group of little dumplings kept coming and going.

"How could we be wrong."

"Father and the others all said so."

"Our Ming Dynasty has the largest territory in the world, and we also have the largest number of people in the world."

"I can tell you clearly that the territory of Ming Dynasty is not even one-tenth of the world. The vastness of the world is beyond your imagination."

Ye Xuan said.

Zhu Xiongying and other Xiaotuanzi were shocked by Ye Xuan's words.

The territory of Ming Dynasty is not even one tenth of the world?

this--

How can it be!

This is completely different from what other adults tell them.

Those former teachers also said that their Ming Dynasty was the most powerful.

The other small countries are just small countries.

They need their Ming Dynasty to pay tribute and surrender.

It is simply not as good as their Ming Dynasty.

So they believed that Ming Dynasty was the most powerful country with the most vast territory in the world.

Who would have thought.

Ye Xuan said that the Ming Dynasty did not even have one-tenth of the world's territory.

This group of little dumplings were dissatisfied.

"Although you are a gentleman, you can't talk nonsense."

Zhu Xiongying retorted.

The other little dumplings also started chirping.

"Yes, yes, sir, you are so empty-handed and have no evidence. How can we in the Ming Dynasty have such a small talk like yours?

My father, my teacher, and others all said that our Ming Dynasty had a vast territory. "

"Our Ming Dynasty is the biggest!"

"It's the strongest!!"

“Other small foreign countries are just mediocre!!”

............

Zhu Xiongying and his group of little dumplings were like chirping birds waiting to be fed. The whole school was filled with the sonic attacks of these little dumplings.

Ye Xuan's face was expressionless and he tapped the table with a ruler.

Make a noise.

Bang bang bang! !

"Quiet!!"

The group of little dumplings stared at the ruler, and the shadow caused by the ruler suddenly emerged.

They suddenly became quiet.

Ye Xuan's ears instantly relax.

Thought:

The sonic attack of these little bastards is truly amazing.

"Sir, you said that the world is vast and our Ming Dynasty only occupies one-tenth of it. Do you know what the world really looks like?"

Zhu Yunwen stood up with his hands clasped, his plump and white face full of intelligence and cleverness.

"Of course I know, and this is the first lesson I want to teach you."

"Now, I will draw what the world looks like."

Ye Xuan hung a huge piece of Dabai paper that had been prepared on the wall, dipped a brush in dark ink, and drew it.

The outline of the world is outlined bit by bit by Ye Xuan.

Zhu Xiongying and other Xiaotuanzi looked at the irregular outline of the small group on the white paper with confused faces.

"What's this?"

“Like Shaobing!”

"You are so big in Shaobing, sir, you said you were drawing a map of the world."

"The map of the world... so abstract..."

"Is every small lump a small country?"

"So many countries!"

Zhu Xiongying and other Xiaotuanzi watched Ye Xuan outline the world and put words on it.

"Pacific Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean..."

"America, Asia?"

Zhu Xiongying and other Xiaotuanzi looked at the things marked by Ye Xuan, and their faces became even more confused.

Wait until Ye Xuan stops.

This group of little dumplings couldn’t wait to ask questions.

"Sir, sir!"

"What does this Pacific Ocean, Yindu Ocean, etc. mean?"

"America, Asia, what are they!"

"Where is our Ming Dynasty?"

"Why didn't Sir mark our Ming Dynasty?"

Ye Xuan drew a rough map of this era, not very detailed. He stretched out his hand to quiet the chattering little group, and then pointed to the simple map hanging on the wall to introduce it.

"This is our Ming Dynasty."

He used a brush to write the word "Da Ming" on the location of "Da Ming".

The little dumplings were instantly shocked.

"Is this our Ming Dynasty?"

"But why so small?"

"This world has four oceans and five continents. The four oceans refer to the Pacific Ocean, the Inverted Ocean, the Arctic Ocean, and the Atlantic Ocean. These are sea areas, and the five continents refer to the five major plates of the world, namely Asia, America, Oceania, Africa."

"The plate our Daming is on is the Asian plate."

"This is the Asian plate."

"And this is our Ming Dynasty."

Ye Xuan explained.

Point out the four oceans and five continents on the map.

The little dumplings opened their mouths wide, their clear and stupid eyes full of shock.

The world is so big?

The Ming Dynasty is just the tip of the iceberg! ?

This completely subverted their understanding.
