After a while, a middle-aged man with a firm face quickly walked in and then saluted Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Long live Yuan Xing, the Imperial Heaven Supervisor, to pay homage to my emperor, long live, long live!"

"There is no need to be too polite to call you here. I want to ask if you ever knew Huntian said?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked immediately.

When Yuan Jian heard the three words "Huntian Say", his brows frowned slightly, and then he said: "Your Majesty, Huntian Say was first born in the Warring States Period and was carried forward by Zhang Heng of the Han Dynasty. They believed that Huntian was like a chicken, the celestial body was round as a bullet, and the ground was like a yellow in the chicken, but I think this statement is completely nonsense. The earth is clearly like a chessboard, the sky is like a pot lid, and the sun, moon and stars are walking on it!"

Li Jie next to him was amused and laughed when he heard Yuan Jianzheng's words. Unexpectedly, this Yuan Jianzheng was actually a supporter of Gai Tian's words. It was really a bit troublesome now.

Although the Huntian theory appeared very early and was recognized by many people, such as Zhang Heng, the Gaitian theory did not disappear, but the two theories were endlessly arguing, each with a group of supporters. The Yuan Jianzheng in front of him obviously supported the latter more.

"The earth is like a chessboard? I seem to have heard of this, but can you recognize this thing?" Zhu Yuanzhang said, pointing to the globe on the table and asked again.

Yuan Jianzheng immediately took a few steps forward, looked at the globe carefully, and then his face changed: "Your Majesty, this is a fake object made by Huntian Theory. The real earth is definitely not a spherical shape, otherwise how should the person under the ball stand?"

Li Jie also looked at Zhu Biao next to him when he heard this. This Yuan Jianzheng was almost exactly the same as the question he asked just now.

"Li Jie, come and answer him!" Zhu Yuanzhang smiled when he heard this, and then he let Li Jie go forward and said.

Li Jie had no choice but to walk forward and pick up the globe, and then repeat the explanation just now.

However, what people unexpectedly expected was that Yuan Jianzheng sneered after hearing this: "Absurd! People are not dust, so how can they be generalized? Moreover, Huntian's statement has long been falsified and is not trustworthy at all. Now you present this fake thing to Your Majesty, which is simply a disaster for many people!"

Originally, it would be fine if Yuan Jianzheng was stubborn, but he actually put a hat on himself for no reason, which made Li Jie furious and immediately sneered: "I think you are the evil words and the misfortune of the crowd, and Gai Tian's saying is absurd words. If the earth is like a chessboard, wouldn't people fall down when they reach the edge of the earth?"

"I am arrogant. As the Imperial Heaven Supervision Supervisor, I have been studying astronomy and geography for decades. How could you question it at a young age?" Yuan Jianzheng immediately sneered again. He did not dare to be so arrogant in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, but now it involves academic disputes, and this has even shaken the foundation of their Imperial Heaven Supervision, so of course he cannot give in.

"Ambition is not about being old. Some people have gone the wrong path from the beginning. Even if they have studied hard for decades, they may only go all the way!" Li Jie also retorted without hesitation.

"Okay, okay! What a sharp-tongued mouth. Then I'll ask you, you said the earth is like a ball, can there be a way to prove it?" Yuan Jianzheng suddenly calmed down and immediately asked a very fatal question. If Li Jie could not prove that the earth is like a ball, then he could participate in the other party's crime of deceiving the king.

Looking at the argument between Li Jie and Yuan Jianzheng, Zhu Yuanzhang was half-squinted and seemed to be unwilling to intervene. Zhu Biao looked worried, especially when he heard that Yuan Jianzheng asked Li Jie to prove that the earth was like a ball, he was even more shocked because he knew that this question could not be proved at all, and Li Jie could not answer it.

Thinking of this, Zhu Biao was also preparing to make a statement to help Li Jie. After all, he was from his own Zhan Shi Mansion and brought him to meet his father, so of course he could not let Li Jie suffer a loss.

However, before Zhu Biao could speak, Li Jie stepped forward and stared at Yuan Jianzheng and said, "Isn't it just proof that the earth is like a ball? What if I can prove it?"

"Li Jie, don't talk nonsense!" Zhu Biao was shocked when he heard this, and even felt that Li Jie was too impulsive, so he took the initiative to jump into the trap set by Yuan Jianzheng.

"Hahahahaha~, the young man didn't know that the sky was high and he actually spoke wildly. Do you know that he had committed the crime of deceiving the king?" Yuan Jianzheng laughed when he heard Li Jie's words. He didn't believe that Li Jie could prove that the earth was like a ball, but he just thought that Li Jie was too young and was bragging and lying for the sake of face.

"Your Highness is worried, and I dare to say this, so I am sure of my own!" Li Jie knew that Zhu Biao was doing his own good, so he smiled gratefully to him.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had not spoken, finally stood up and smiled, "Very good. Since neither of you two accept each other, why not just make a bet?"

"I am willing!" Li Jie and Yuan Jianzheng agreed almost at the same time.

"Since it's a bet, of course I have to make a lottery. I'm here to be a middle-aged man. You all tell me, what if I lose?" Zhu Yuanzhang said again with a smile. He liked gambling very much when he was young, but unfortunately he became the emperor later. No one dared to bet with him anymore. Today, he can be a middle-aged man and live a bit of gambling addiction.

"If I lose, I am willing to give up the position of Supervisor of the Imperial Heavenly Supervision to the other party!" Yuan Jianzheng said first. He didn't believe that Li Jie would win at all, so he simply used his official position as a bet. Of course, if Li Jie wins, he would not have the shame to be the supervisor again.

"I'm not fooling around, I have the final say in everything I choose. How can I use it as a bet!" However, Lao Zhu said coldly when he heard this. He was very sensitive to power, and he was able to seize military, political and personnel power, and no one could be involved.

"I am wrong, please forgive me!" Yuan Jianzheng also woke up and was so scared that he was sweating in a cold sweat. He immediately knelt down and apologized. He was too impulsive just now.

"Okay, I think you are the first offender, so I won't care!" Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and then said again, "Since you two are in an academic dispute, as the saying goes, those who are good at it are the first, so just do this. Whoever loses, please take the other party as his teacher!"

"Your Majesty..." Yuan Jianzheng felt aggrieved when he heard this, because with his age and qualifications, even if Li Jie lost and became his disciple, it would not be embarrassing. But if he became Li Jie as his disciple, he would be embarrassing.

However, as soon as Yuan Jianzheng spoke, he saw Lao Zhu's stern eyes, which made him swallow the following words immediately.

In contrast, Li Jie looked calm. It was not that he felt that he had taken advantage of it, but that he believed that he would not lose.

"Okay, Li Jie, how do you prove that the earth is like a ball?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked Li Jie again.
