At this time, Li Shanchang, who was the chief minister of the cabinet, was suddenly worried.

"My lord, so many scholars have poured into the capital in such a concentrated time, and it's not easy to control the soldiers and horses of the five cities. I'm afraid that some troubles will happen."

As the chief assistant, he is to reconcile yin and yang, and assist the emperor in governing political affairs, so he must prevent problems before they happen, and kill all possible problems in advance.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care much about it at all, and just said lightly.

"There is no need to control this. They all received letters from their acquaintances. In order to meet Tao'er, they came to the capital to study and improve. This is a good thing, and we don't have to stop it."

Li Shanchang smiled wryly, he knew what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking, and what he wanted was such an effect.

Students all over the world admire Zhu Tao's name, so Zhu Tao's reputation has naturally spread throughout the world. At this time, he proposed to control people who enter Beijing, which is a bit like pouring cold water on His Majesty.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang directly ordered Huang Guan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, to come in, and then told him directly.

"We have an idea now, that is, in the next imperial examination, we don't need to use Zhu Xi's knowledge as the examination questions, but directly replace it with Zhu Tao's knowledge."

Although Huang Guan also read the books of Cheng Zhu Neo Confucianism and became an official in the world, he did not have any objections to Zhu Yuanzhang's statement.

After watching that debate, he already understood that Zhu Tao has far surpassed Zhu Xi, who is called a saint, in learning.

As far as Zhu Yuanzhang is concerned, the reason why Zhu Xi was recognized as a saint at the beginning was simply because Zhu Xi was also surnamed Zhu.

Thinking about it now, Zhu Tao's surname is naturally Zhu, and Tao'er is our son, so of course he is closer to me in terms of relationship, and he is also better than Zhu Xi in knowledge, so it is normal to change him.

Although there is no disagreement, Huang Guan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, is the person who presides over the imperial examinations every day, he said to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, there will be a problem with doing this, that is, Zhu Xi's learning has already formed a cultural context since the founding of our dynasty. Scholars also use it as an authentic way to study learning and prepare for imperial examinations. The cold window may be abandoned, some people who are past middle age, how can they have time to study Zhu Tao's knowledge system?"

This problem does exist. Some scholars have spent half their lives studying Zhu Xi, but now that the system of imperial examinations has suddenly changed, their studies over the years will be in vain.

In other words, Zhu Yuanzhang's frivolous words will directly affect the future court structure.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to pay attention to those things, what kind of system and context, Tao'er's knowledge is good knowledge, as long as it is good knowledge, it can be used or not.

So, with one sentence, he directly sent Huang Guan back.

"Didn't you scholars keep saying that the people can let them know what they want? If that's the case, let them follow the imperial court's will, and there's no need to explain so much."

Speaking of this, Huang Guan couldn't say anything more, so he had to follow the order.

At this time, Old Tang had just sent away another wave of visiting scholars.

He found Zhu Tao and asked with some puzzlement.

"Master, what's going on here? There are so many people visiting here in the past few days, and some people are crying and shouting that they must worship you as their teacher. At least a hundred people will come here every day. I can't handle it. "

Zhu Tao thought for a while, and immediately understood that it must have been caused by the debate with Mr. Kong.

"It's probably my father who did it again. He spread the debate that day everywhere, causing the whole capital to stir up an uproar. Maybe it has spread to other places. These people are either here to learn from teachers, or they want to come to debate to find The venue is really unbearably disturbing, Old Tang, from now on we will thank guests behind closed doors."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was another knock on the door. Old Tang opened the door, and saw a father and son standing in the doorway, their bodies covered with dust.

That child was only twelve or thirteen years old, and he didn't come to learn a teacher at this age, he probably came to study in a private school.

Old Tang has been complaining in his heart, because he has been too annoying these days.

"You two, please go back. My young master is now closing the door to thank guests. Anyone who comes to debate or study will disappear. Please don't embarrass me with this errand."

At this time, Xie Jin glanced at Old Tang, and he knew clearly that it seemed that there were too many people coming to apprentice these days, which annoyed him.

So, he said something very humbly.

"Just ask the old man to help me out again, and say that my father and son came from a long distance in Ji'an Mansion to meet Mr. Zhu Tao admiringly. My name is Xie Jin. If Mr. Zhu is bored, I will only see you once. Don't say anything, just turn around and leave."

Although Xie Jin is an extremely proud person, he has completely admired Zhu Tao, so even if he came here in a hurry, he can only see one side, which is enough to comfort him for the rest of his life.

In fact, there were not a few people who came from far away places, and they were exhausted, so this was not a reason to bother Zhu Tao.

But this young man named Xie Jin was just a child, so he was so humble and polite, Old Tang still decided to speak for him again.

Then Old Tang entered the house and said to Zhu Tao.

"Young master, a father and son came outside, and they said they wanted to see you and left. After all, they came from Ji'an far away. Is it possible to satisfy their request? After all, the child named Xie Jin is only twelve or thirteen years old. Knowing etiquette in this way can be regarded as a talent that can be created."

Zhu Tao didn't listen carefully to what Old Tang said earlier, and even wanted to refute a few words.

But when he heard the name Xie Jin, he was taken aback for an instant.

This name is too familiar. Xie Jin is none other than the editor-in-chief of "Yongle Dadian", a collection of classic books from later generations. Even if it is only this one achievement, it is enough to be called immortal.

Zhu Tao was thinking that Xie Jin was still a child at this time, if he could give some pointers, he would not have the disaster of being frozen to death in the snow in the future.

Now that he has found his door, and he admires Yongle Dadian very much, as for the future editor-in-chief, he should take care of him if he can.

So he said to Old Tang.

"Let them come in. The sage said that people have three joys. Parents are still with brothers for no reason. The first joy is to look up to the sky and not to be ashamed of others. The second joy is to get the world's talents and educate them. The three joys are the solution. Jin Nai is an outstanding talent in the world, and I am about to give him some advice."

Old Tang was immediately stunned. He was just trying to make love to the two long-distance father and son, and never thought that Zhu Tao would agree.

What's more, just hearing the name Xie Jin, the young master calls him an outstanding talent in the world, isn't it weird!

However, there are too many things about Zhu Tao that I can't figure out, and the young master's order, I just need to execute it.
