Abandoned daughter takes charge of the family, so rich that even the best people can't envy
Chapter 171 Competition
As soon as the Nine Causes of the Great Dao was revealed, Cui Qiu, the head of the Cui family and current director of the Imperial Observatory, knew it.
The Dao Jiu Yin Jue was extremely important for calculating astronomy and the calendar. If Song Jinxiu hadn't written out the multiplication table without reservation in the first lesson, he would have been unable to sit still.
Cui Zixuan's brother, Cui Yougui, was a student at the Imperial College. He would tell Cui Qiu every word of Song Jinxiu's class.
Cui Qiu also heard that Cui Zixuan was inferior to others in mathematics, but he didn't take it seriously.
The current emperor is not a mediocre person, and anyone who can be specially appointed as the chief doctor of mathematics by the emperor is naturally no pushover.
But she was a doctor of mathematics, yet she dared to challenge Kan Tianshi Yinyu, which forced him to take her seriously.
You have to know that the art of Kan Tian is a family tradition and not everyone can learn it.
Yin Yang Household, there is no branch of the Song family?
It is said that the Song family came from a poor, remote farming family. This is strange, as since the previous emperor, there has been a rule that ordinary people are not allowed to learn the art of yin and yang.
"Someone, go check this girl's background. Is there anything we don't know?"
"Yes."
"To avoid suspicion, ask the young lady not to come to the observatory for the next two days. I will go to the observatory myself and record the data for her reference."
"Yes"
Cui Zixuan is the best of this generation. He carefully selected her and spent a huge price to let her enter the Xuantian Sect.
He has always hoped that another saint would appear in his family to restore the glory of their Cui family of the Imperial Observatory.
There are balloons in the space, but unfortunately there is no hydrogen.
In order to make the balloon fly higher, it is necessary to fill it with hydrogen.
How is hydrogen separated? Is it produced by electrolysis of water?
But even if she had the hydrogen balloon, she couldn't accomplish anything without the weather monitoring equipment in her space.
How to do it?
Treasure-hunting mouse Junjun asked curiously, "What are you looking for?"
Song Jinxiu expressed her thoughts in a disjointed manner.
"Tsk! You're so stupid. Why use a balloon? Your spiritual sense is so powerful, can't you just project it outwards?"
Song Jinxiu was stunned. "Spiritual consciousness can be projected outwards? How?"
Treasure Hunter Junjun suddenly fell silent. He had forgotten that his master was only at the second level of Qi Refining.
"You can only release it after reaching the third level of Qi Refining."
"It's the same as saying it or not saying it."
However, Junjun's words reminded her that if she used her spiritual sense on the golden pupil, she should be able to see farther, but what if she added an astronomical telescope?
Song Jinxiu spent an afternoon building an astronomical telescope in space.
The lens is made of several magnifying glasses. I tried it on the roof at night and was very satisfied.
Just a few scattered drops of rain fell, and the sky cleared up. The starry sky was beautiful, with twinkling stars and rolling white clouds.
As she watched, Song Jinxiu frowned and became serious.
Through the halo of starlight, she saw the whirlwind.
Song Jinxiu opened her golden pupils and observed carefully. The vortex was not strong and was gathering.
But the problem is that the temperature has dropped in the past few days. If the cyclone encounters the "accomplice" of cold air, it will trigger more precipitation and the cyclone will be more powerful.
Eventually, strong winds formed...
Three days later, it was the beginning of winter, and the rain and northerly winds caused a further drop in temperature. The weather became even colder.
The interaction between strong winds and cold air causes strong winds to degenerate into temperate cyclones. In this process, greater energy will be generated and typhoons will be formed.
Song Jinxiu observed for a whole night and determined that the whirlwind was continuing to grow stronger and that there would be strong winds within three days.
It's still windy and rainy.
The next day was the competition with Cui Zixuan.
"Brother, our mother and the others may already be on their way. There may be a strong wind reaching the capital in three days, with the main force likely to be in the northwest.
Send someone to meet them. If they can arrive within two days, they can hurry up. If not, they can stay in Wuyi West for two days and come back slowly after the storm passes."
"Okay, I'll take Jinyou and the others there myself."
Song Jinxiu also ordered people to store charcoal, food, cotton clothes and quilts.
After the wind and rain, we will enter the cold period of early winter.
After arranging everything, she slowly ate breakfast and took Su Chuan and Yingchun to the observatory.
At this time, there were already crowds of people in front of the observation platform.
Cui Zixuan was wearing a white cloak and standing in front of a large round plate.
She glanced at Song Jinxiu, who had arrived late, and said softly, "I thought you didn't dare to come?"
Song Jinxiu walked up the stairs step by step and said with a smile, "It's not even 9 o'clock yet, are you here so early?"
"Hahaha"
Cui Zixuan giggled sweetly, "Dr. Song is truly an amateur. The best time to observe the sky and predict the weather is sunrise. You're looking at the sky now. Don't you want your eyes anymore?"
"Hmph, pretending to know when she doesn't. Why is Sister Cui kindly reminding her? It would be better if she were blind!" Li Wan screamed from the audience.
Cui Zixuan smiled generously, "Miss Song doesn't understand, I always have to remind you."
"That's right, Dr. Song, you don't know anything and yet you dare to compete with Miss Cui? Are you kidding me? You made me come here so early in the morning."
"That's right, Dr. Song. You're a good math student, but not everyone can master the art of Kantian. I think you should just admit defeat and avoid damaging your eyes."
Cui Zixuan narrowed her eyes and said, "If you admit defeat now, besides honoring the bet, don't you also have to apologize to everyone who came here so early?"
Li Wan shouted, "How can you just apologize? You have to bow and kowtow. I didn't even have breakfast before I came here."
Song Jinxiu glanced at Li Wan and asked, "Why are you everywhere?"
She didn't bother to pay attention to her. She looked at Cui Zixuan and asked, "So you've already observed the clouds? And you know what the weather will be like in the next three days?"
"Of course, Miss Song, you're late. Observing the stars at night and the clouds at sunrise is the most basic common sense in Kantian. Don't you know it?"
Cui Zixuan smiled confidently and looked at Song Jinxiu as if she was looking at a clown.
"Hey, little girl, just admit defeat and stop embarrassing yourself and wasting your time."
"Exactly. We're still waiting to have dinner with Junior Sister. I've never seen anyone compete with others in the art of Kantian like this. Are you deliberately making us starve while waiting for you?"
Junior Sister? Could these be the disciples from Xuantian Sect?
Song Jinxiu looked over and found her senior brother Xuan Zhenzi hiding behind the crowd with his face covered.
She couldn't help but feel a pang of anxiety: What did Senior Brother mean? Did he embarrass her?
She let out a breath and said, "Who said I'm going to give up?"
"If you don't admit defeat, then let's go to Kantian." Cui Zixuan sneered in her heart and pointed at the disc.
At this time, the sun was hanging low in the sky. If she went to Kantian now, her eyes would hurt for a few days even if she didn't go blind.
Song Jinxiu looked at the disc and asked, "How do I use this?"
"Pfft,"
"Ha ha ha ha"
"Oh, oh, I'm dying of laughter, Dr. Song, you really don't know anything?"
"It turned out to be a joke. Ouch, I have to go back to eat."
Song Jinxiu frowned and said coldly, "I understand. This is a sundial. What can you see with this sundial? There should be an astronomical instrument or armillary sphere on it, right?"
Everyone was stunned and looked at Cui Zixuan.
Cui Zixuan's face darkened.
There was indeed a armillary sphere on it, and after she looked at it, she ordered someone to put it away.
