Domineering Daming

He was still thinking, this is a microcosm, an inevitable thing.

Although he has tried his best to brush the ball in the textbooks, once it comes to "seeking truth from facts" and students start to think seriously, they will inevitably question the deified "sages". "The saying is even more "nonsense."

When students question Confucianism, they are actually questioning the "sage".

Saints have been deified for nearly 2000 years, who dares to question them?Even the emperor Zhu Xu must be cautious when it comes to this matter. If one is not good, he will become the public enemy of the whole world, and the most trusted people will oppose him!

"It's just that all reforms are physical, and ideological innovations can't wait..."

Zhu Xu whispered in his heart, the scene just now is definitely not an exception. This kind of thing in other colleges, even those graduates, will inevitably encounter "resistance" when facing the old forces and old ideas. "Resistance" will intensify, and sooner or later a greater confrontation and storm will form.

"How can we make the perfect connection between 'natural science' and 'Confucianism', a slow transition..."

Zhu Xu's face was calm and his eyes were cold.

Confucianism lies in confinement, confining people's thoughts in a cage.Zhu Xu needs to break this cage, but he can't be too violent. New ideas haven't even sprouted, and they can't "crack" the Confucian classics naturally.

"Ideology is the product of economic development and needs. The economy of Ming Dynasty is not enough. Even if it develops like this, it may take 200 years. I can't wait..."

Zhu Xu was thinking in his heart, thinking must be used to guide development, but how to come up with this thinking?

"Go and find out what that student's name is." Zhu Xu said suddenly with his eyes brightened.

Just as Cao Huachun was about to respond, Cao Bianjiao suddenly took a few steps, picked up a notebook where the young people were before, and walked over to hand it to Zhu Xu.

Zhu Xu took it and turned it up casually.

After just a few glances, his expression couldn't help but move.

"With the power of the world, send it to the people of the world!"

"The ruler of the world cannot be ruled by himself. If he is ruled by himself, the punishments will be complicated, and if the people are ruled, the punishments will be dealt with!"

"The ancient rulers did not hide their wealth. If the people benefit from it, the source of wealth will flow and benefit the officials; if the official monopolizes its benefits, the source of wealth will be blocked and will be detrimental to the people!"

"Those who are good for the country hide it from the people, and those who are good for the country hide it among the people!"

Zhu Xu narrowed his eyes, his face moved.

The idea of ​​this young man is "very dangerous"!

The former is against imperial dictatorship, and the latter is about "benefit", which supports "a gentleman's words of benefit", and hopes that the wealth of the world will be hidden in the people... plus he questioned Confucius and Mencius just now, fortunately this book has not been spread, otherwise He will definitely be sent directly to the Yamen, and the death penalty is not an exaggeration!

"Bianjiao, you go, find out who this person is for me, take care of him, I want to see him."

Zhu Xu put the book in his arms, even Cao Huachun was not going to let him read it.

"Yes." Cao Bianjiao agreed and sent two people over.

Cao Huachun knew Zhu Xu's thoughts the most. He had hints of it before and sent Qian Qianyi to the south to preside over the imperial examination in Yingtianfu. Now he even met this young man... fearing that something might happen!

Cao Huachun was worried, stepped forward and said in a low voice, "My lord, Mr. Bi Ge and others have noticed the conflict among the students of the academy before, so they are already preparing to revise the syllabus."

Chapter 658 Gu Yanwu

What Cao Huachun said was already very euphemistic. In fact, the adults in the court had already complained about these syllabus.But these were compiled by the emperor himself in the second year of Chongzhen. Now that the cabinet is restored, the adults are all cautious, but they still can't help but want to make adjustments. One can imagine how much impact this set of syllabus has on the current "study style".

Zhu Xu smiled and said nothing. He naturally knew these things, and deliberately pretended not to know, which was to show his attitude - he opposed the revision of the syllabus!

He has played the sidelines as much as possible, but he doesn't want to retreat instead of advancing.

All the students of Yangzhou Academy went to military training, Zhu Xu walked around, then left, and turned to Jiangdu County to study.

Everyone walked slowly on the road, enjoying the beauty of Yangzhou by the way.

Cao Huachun was worried about Zhu Xu's recklessness, so he changed the topic and said, "Your Majesty, there are many places with excellent scenery in Yangzhou, and everyone who comes and goes will go there. Otherwise, let's go to see the scenery, and your travel notes can also add a lot of money. .”

Zhu Xu is in a hurry now, and if he has time to see the scenery, he probably guessed what Cao Huachun was thinking, and said with a smile: "Well, I have time to see it, by the way, what is the situation of Jiangdu County School, they will not go to military training too right?"

Cao Huachun bowed slightly, and said: "The servants have already checked, they have classes today, and there is no military training."

After a short pause, he said, "Jiangdu County School was established two years ago. It has a main college and three branch colleges, with more than 2000 students..."

Zhu Xu paused, turned to look at him, and asked strangely, "Why are there so many people in the county school?"

Cao Huachun looked around, and said: "Back to the emperor, Yangzhou or the whole country of Ming Dynasty don't seem to care much about county schools, and they are desperately trying to squeeze in government schools and provincial schools. Now most of the government schools and provincial schools are directly recruiting. , not from the county school. Moreover, the county school is free, divided into age groups, ranging from eight to 15 years old, so the number of people is relatively large..."

Zhu Xu's heart moved slightly, and he understood.

In order to take care of the current Shilin, coupled with the short time, there are not enough academies. Except for poor people, those with a little wealth and knowledge are desperately squeezed into the government schools. The government schools can directly participate in the provincial examination, and the provincial schools can directly participate in the conference. try!At the same time, provincial schools and prefectural schools have limited places, and various reasons have caused the expansion of county schools.

It is a deformity that can only be digested slowly by time.

Cao Bianjiao's people came back soon, Cao Bianjiao asked clearly, and reported in a low voice: "Young master, I found out, the man is called Gu Yanwu, whose name is Zhongqing, from Suzhou Prefecture, he seems to have been hit hard, and now he wants to go to Yingtian Military Academy .”

"So it was him..."

Zhu Xu laughed. This is a great Confucian in the future. He has an extremely unique ideological side. Although he is a master of Confucianism, he has made breakthroughs in many places. Just looking at his current notes, we can see that there has been a preliminary breakthrough in feudalism. Germination, more than ten years later will touch the world!

Cao Huachun knew that Zhu Xu had many intelligence channels, so he didn't say anything.

Zhu Xu walked slowly with his hands behind his back, thinking in his heart.

The thinking of Gu Yanwu and the others must be in great conflict with the reality at this time. They are still ordinary students and don't have that much power to speak. If they can't keep a low profile and keep a low profile, today's affairs must be indispensable.

"How can we make them feel at ease and complete their new thought breakthrough as soon as possible?"

Zhu Xu was thoughtful, and suddenly said, "Is Qian Qianyi here?"

Cao Huachun was startled inwardly, and still said: "Go back to the emperor, we have already arrived, and we are preparing for this year's imperial examination in the past Gongyuan."

"The servant of the Ministry of Rites..."

Zhu Xu narrowed his eyes, smiled, and said: "Try that Gu Yanwu to be Qian Qianyi's assistant. After returning to Beijing, let him be the deputy editor of the Ministry of Rites newspaper. Every issue must be shown to me."

Cao Huachun felt a little relieved when he heard the words, and said, "Observe the order."

Zhu Xu and his group soon came to Jiangdu County School. The courtyard was obviously not as good as the prefectural school, but Lang Lang's reading could be heard from a distance.

Zhu Xu listened attentively, and it should be a short version of "The Great Learning", and walked in with a smile.

The guard did not stop him, and allowed Zhu Xu and his group to walk in.

Walking through a small bamboo forest, you can see a huge field.

Archery, horseback riding, long-distance running, weapons, etc., are less like a county school and more like a small military base.

A group of people are running, a group of people are archery, and a group of people are learning horses. They are all in their teens and full of youthful vigor.
