Chongzhen Undergraduates

Although the meaning sounds the same, the expression is completely different.What Shi Kefa and Qian Qianyi wanted to express was that the imperial court had made a mistake in the questions, and they should reveal what the examinees had studied.

What Huang Zongxi wanted to say was that since the emperor wanted to test these things, he should teach the students first, at least let the students know what they were going to test.

Zhu Youjian's eyes lit up immediately after listening, Huang Zongxi had already started to have new thoughts in his heart.It seems that the thinking of this group of people is changing, which is why Huang Zongxi later became known as the "Father of Chinese Thought Enlightenment".

Zhu Youjian then glanced at Fang Yizhi, Chen Zilong, Gu Yanwu and others. He found that these people in their 30s seemed to be in deep thought. It was obvious that Huang Zongxi's words had touched them just now.

If you live in later generations and look at the history of the late Ming Dynasty, you will find that the first batch of people with advanced enlightenment thoughts appeared at the end of the Ming Dynasty. If it hadn’t been for the entry of the Qing Dynasty to interrupt the spread of these people’s ideas and suppress the nation The awakening of the world will not be a different scene.

Many traversers are always entangled in the Donglin forces in the Tianqi Dynasty and the early Chongzhen period, thinking that Donglin is like a cancer that cannot be cut off, and all Donglin people should be the same.

In fact, by the end of the Ming Dynasty, some people in Donglin had changed, and they no longer stuck to the old school of thinking.These people are the best of the young.

What the Seven Gentlemen of Donglin want to do is not necessarily what some young people in Fushe really want to do. For example, Chen Zilong is more willing to devote himself to farming and formulating strategies, while Huang Zongxi prefers to design top-level structures.

"Song Aiqing, tell me, how can the imperial court acquire talents who can make cannon steel?"

"I am not talented, I have failed the emperor's expectations, and I have not yet produced the steel that the emperor wants. I am ashamed!"

Song Yingxing didn't have anything to say. Given his status among the technical talents of Ming Dynasty, he couldn't make it out, so who else could?Any old craftsman?

"My dear friends, do you know why my Ming army dare not fight Houjin? You must all think of war horses. But I, Daming, have no horses. Could it be that we can't rely on war horses to win? Or do you all want to regain lost ground?

No, I think.Because the capital city was lost in my hands.In order to regain the lost ground, I need to find a way to create a sharp weapon that can deal with the latter golden cavalry.What I need is more talents like Song Aiqing. I want to find such talents from among my students. Am I wrong? "

"Your Majesty, those are just strange tricks, you can't rely on them to govern the country." Qian Qianyi quickly retorted.

"Okay! Qian Aiqing means that those things are useless, right?"

Qian Qianyi didn't dare to refute that the Ming Dynasty was no longer as good as the Firearms Age. Back then it was the imitation red cannons that prevented Hou Jin from entering the pass. Everyone knew that cannons were very important.

"Since you feel that governing the country is useless, then governing the army is always useful, right?" Changing his thinking, Zhu Youjian's mouth was really parched.

"Da Ming now needs to govern the army. Without cannons, how can we fight the enemy?"

"Running the army should be a matter for soldiers, and the emperor should select talents from military examinations." Qian Qianyi said again.

Zhu Youjian was pissed off by him, this is the normal behavior of Donglin people.Anyway, it's others who are at fault. I, Donglin, only want power. I'm in charge of managing you. You should serve me well. It's all your fault if something goes wrong.

"What I mean is that the imperial court should select talents who govern the country, not craftsmen." Qian Qianyi said with a straight neck.

At this moment, Zhu Youjian had to understand that Qian Qianyi had already chosen a team, whether he was the old Donglin, or insisted on Donglin's previous style.

To be honest, Zhu Youjian's perception of Qian Qianyi is not bad, and he even has illusions, thinking that he will change.Now it seems that it is impossible to change the thinking and worldview of a 60-year-old man.

The situation forced Qian Qianyi to jump out by himself.

"Since I want both the talent of governing the country and the talent of craftsman, I might as well have both." Zhu Youjian didn't intend to change the entire Ming Dynasty's education system with this exam.

For every change, there will be some attempts, groping forward in the temptation.Cutting-edge social changes have done too much harm to society itself.

"I think Ming Dynasty needs all the outstanding students in all subjects. Therefore, I decided to admit all the top [-] students in each subject. What do you think?"

Zhu Youjian's words were astonishing, but the emperor had the final say on how many people would be admitted in an imperial examination.

It's not that Zhu Youjian has no way to solve the problem, he just wants to see who can be forced to stand in line.

Chapter 233: Political Left and Right

After understanding the internal changes in Donglin, Zhu Youjian almost had the bottom line in his heart.

If Donglin is full of ideas of the older generation like Qian Qianyi, I am afraid that Zhu Youjian may really fall into the whirlpool of Nanjing and be unable to turn over.

In fact, there will be problems between the left and the right in every group, and this is simply the standard answer in later generations.

"There is no party in the party, and the emperor's thinking; there is no faction in the party, and there are all kinds of strange things." If you want to disintegrate your opponents, unite the left and attack the right, this is a necessary political method.

This should be the case for the Faction East Forest, and it should be the same for the Faction Molecules.

Each of the six subjects takes the top [-], so it is actually equivalent to Zhu Youjian splitting one-third of the right and two-thirds of the left.

Why are there so many people on the left?He thought Mingfa and policy questions were also what Zhu Youjian needed.When reviewing the policy theory, Zhu Youjian deliberately favored candidates with other styles, unless there were stereotyped policy theory writing that was particularly brilliant, Zhu Youjian would take it differently.In fact, stereotyped writing itself is very good as a style, but it is a pity that many students of Ming Dynasty only focus on stereotyped writing itself and ignore the content to be explained.

The policy theory itself makes it difficult for candidates who are too focused on stereotyped essays to perform. Therefore, even if the policy theory is written in stereotyped essays, as long as the student writes well, he must be a talent.

And as long as he is a young talent, Zhu Youjian doesn't have to worry too much about whether he is left or right, because he is a ship that is easy to turn around.Only those who are too obsessed with scriptures and stereotyped Jinshi finally face the problem of narrow roads. Most of these people can only go to the right in the end.

Zhu Youjian believes that after this big test, some students will change their study direction from the previous pure classics to other fields, because there are more places and more roads to get scholars, why should everyone squeeze the single-plank bridge?

If there is only one road ahead, everyone has no choice but to squeeze; if there are suddenly a few more roads ahead, someone will always try to take another road.

Zhu Youjian's idea is to separate the roads of scientific research, start from the scriptures themselves, divide them into several parts, and give scholars more roads.The previous selection of officials is one kind, and the teachers who are about to be recruited are also one kind, and the expansion of the selection itself is even more so.Will multiple methods succeed in diverting the scholars?

Liu Zongzhou felt that he was very successful this time. He successfully led the Fushe to complete a feat and forced the emperor to make changes.

More importantly, this time his students became the leaders, and all of them successfully entered the official position.Although he never showed up during this process, both Zhang Cai and Qian Qianyi made it clear that they would move closer to him.His old friend Wang Duo also praised him sincerely.

"Students congratulate the teacher with peaches and plums all over the world!" Huang Zongxi looked at the rosy Liu Zongzhou, knowing that the teacher was in a good mood, and wanted to take this opportunity to say a few good words to ease the relationship between teachers and students.

"Hmph! You still have the face to come to see me? You missed such a good opportunity for nothing, you are really my good student?" Huang Zongxi didn't know that his status in Liu Zongzhou's heart was even lower.

In Liu Zongzhou's view, the opportunity to challenge Zhu Youjian is so good. As long as he insists on standing in the same camp as Qian Qianyi, Zhu Youjian may give up the gradual reform of the imperial examination, but he, a student, actually sang the opposite tune.

This is absolutely intolerable to him, Liu Zongzhou intends to kick Huang Zongxi out and sever the teacher-student relationship.

Huang Zongxi walked away from that small courtyard disheartened, he could only wander around aimlessly, the city of Nanjing is huge, but he felt as if he had no place for himself.

"You three girls who look exactly alike, serve me wine quickly." Huang Zongxi came to the tavern again, pointing at the person in front of him and shouting.

Those who can see one person as two are drunk; those who see one person as three are probably going to pass out.Xiao Er looked at the wine jars on the table, turned around and left. For guests who are so drunk, it doesn't matter whether they have wine or not, anyway, he will soon fall asleep.

"Pfft!"

Sure enough, Huang Zongxi rolled directly under the table just a few steps away from the waiter. He didn't even know how to hold the table legs, so he could only lie on his back on the ground and spit out filth.

"Shopkeeper, do you see this?" the waiter asked and glanced at the shopkeeper.

"Did you give me money?"

"It has already been given."

"Then throw it directly at..."

Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, a very good-looking young woman walked into the store.She glanced at Huang Zongxi who was on the ground, and then glared at the shopkeeper, who abruptly swallowed what he hadn't finished speaking.

Squatting down and grabbing Huang Zongxi's left arm, Fang Yi easily placed him on her shoulder.The shop waiter hurriedly stepped aside to make way for the two of them. A woman can easily carry away a big man. Such a woman can't be provoked by most people.

In the uterus, Fang Yi gently put down Huang Zongxi, and even found a warm towel to wipe his face.
