Chapter 1210 Representative of Scholars in the World
In fact, far more than some scholars are paying attention, but the number of scholars is the largest, and they are also the most violent group, so they are a bit conspicuous.

The reason for this situation is also because the group of scholars has just passed the Tongsheng, and there will be two tests for Juren and Jinshi in the future, and they are all stuck in the test of Juren.Generally speaking, if a Juren can pass the exam, the difference from a scholar is not even the slightest bit.However, it is also difficult to test candidates, and they are stuck here, day and night.

If there are fewer children aged four and fifty, then there are more scholars aged four and fifty.Not to mention such a high age, let’s just talk about those scholars who are over 50. Their energy has been almost exhausted by the Four Books and Five Classics. It is conceivable how difficult it is to suddenly ask them to learn scientific and technical knowledge to take the exam .

More importantly, the former Four Books and Five Classics are somewhat similar to the liberal arts of later generations, and the key is to memorize them; while scientific and technical knowledge is similar to the science of later generations, the key is to understand first, and the different learning methods make it difficult for these old scholars.In this case, it will naturally be fried one by one.

Of course, they are not the only ones who want to oppose the promotion of scientific and technological knowledge.

That night, Wang Cheng'en, the admiral of Dongchang, came to report to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, the servants of the servants discovered that many officials had changed. Some of them spoke inappropriately, and some even wrote memorials by hand. The servants copied a copy here. Please read the memorial, Your Majesty!"

The memorials of the officials in the capital can all be copied by the Dongchang fan. Obviously, this is definitely not the owner's consent.It can be seen from this that the East Factory has a relatively good control over the officials of the capital.Emperor Chongzhen thought so, nodded, reached out to take the memorial and read it.

Not surprisingly, this memorial is against the promotion of scientific and technological knowledge, especially emphasizing that the ancient sages ruled the world with half of the Analects of Confucius. Throughout the ages, there has never been anything that required scientific and technological knowledge to govern the world.Anyway, I wrote a lot of similar words.

Emperor Chongzhen scanned it roughly, then threw it on the desk, and said to Wang Cheng'en: "Seeing Yan Shenggong arrive in the capital, he thought there were some people who took the lead in opposing, and finally all these monsters jumped out one by one. It's okay, let's They'll be waiting tomorrow morning!"

Wang Chengen also understood what he said. Now the main ministers in the court, such as the first assistant Wen Tiren, the cabinet ministers, and the six ministers, have not opposed the promotion of scientific and technological knowledge that the emperor values.Those who have opinions in their hearts bury their dissatisfaction in their hearts.

Now Yan Shenggong, the spiritual leader of the scholars, personally came to the capital to oppose this matter, at least those people think so, which gave them courage.Moreover, it can be said that Yan Shenggong swaggered all the way to the capital, and there were so many scholars who opposed scientific and technological knowledge behind him. As for this, the court did not express any dissatisfaction, and the emperor did not express any dissatisfaction. From this, it can be seen that Yan Shenggong still has a considerable weight. Heavy.That being the case, with Youyan Shenggong taking the lead, they naturally had the courage to jump out and oppose.

As for those who have already become officials, they also jumped out to oppose it.After counting the list of changes, Wang Chengen also knew it well.

Most of these officials are older.In the new assessment measures of the Ministry of Officials, especially those involving scientific and technological knowledge, they are all relatively low, which affects their official career prospects.If these people put their heart and soul into scientific and technological knowledge, they are not too willing, and they always want to be as good as before!In the final analysis, they are just a group of old-fashioned people.

After listening to Emperor Chongzhen's words, Wang Chengen knew that the emperor had a good idea, so he stepped back with confidence.

However, there are still a lot of people who are not at ease.After all, that was Yan Shenggong, the representative of scholars in the world.Before going to bed, Empress Zhou was accompanying her to the bed, lying in Emperor Chongzhen's arms, and asked a little worriedly: "I heard that His Majesty is going to summon that Duke Yansheng tomorrow morning?"

The previous emperors prohibited the harem from intervening in politics, but for Emperor Chongzhen, there was no absolute, and it was nothing to say occasionally.Otherwise, he wouldn't let the Queen sort out the monitoring records in the chat group.At this time, when he heard Queen Zhou's question, he didn't take it seriously, he touched her back and said, "Well, that's right!"

Upon hearing this, Empress Zhou raised her head, looked at Emperor Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty, why are you summoning us alone in the early court?"

"Hehe, are you worried that he will oppose the scientific and technological knowledge I promote?" Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but patted her smooth back with a smile and asked.

The prince's masters are the backbone of scientific and technological knowledge.Judging from the situation obtained by the prince these days, it seems that the prince is very interested in scientific and technological knowledge, and several times excitedly mentioned it to Queen Zhou, saying that the experiments done by the masters are amazing, but the principle behind it is so simple , It's amazing!

Queen Zhou was also satisfied with this.Your Majesty just mastered the knowledge of science and technology, and as a result, Ming became more and more powerful.It can be seen from this that the emperor's mastery of scientific and technological knowledge is of great help to the strength of Ming Dynasty.

Although Queen Zhou didn't understand the logic, she deduced it from what she saw with her eyes. Therefore, with this conclusion, the prince was happy to have a good rest in scientific and technological knowledge.

However, now Yan Shenggong is in Beijing.It is impossible for her not to know such a sensational matter even in the deep palace.As a result, she was worried.After all, Yan Shenggong is different from ordinary people. He is a descendant of Confucius and the spiritual leader of scholars in the world. He has great appeal and influence on scholars in the world.

It is also obvious that the Confucianism represented by the Confucian family is completely different from the scientific and technological knowledge promoted by the emperor.Lord Yansheng came to the capital to face the saint, he must have seen the promotion of scientific and technological knowledge in the Ming Dynasty, which made him feel uneasy, so he came to persuade him.Otherwise, it is impossible to cause such a sensation.

In this way, if the emperor can't bear the pressure and takes the first place, he will probably change the prince's master and affect the prince's side. This is what Queen Zhou doesn't want to see. Therefore, she is a little worried. It was brought up in front of Emperor Chongzhen.

Emperor Chongzhen could understand her thoughts after a little thought.Therefore, without waiting for Queen Zhou to speak, he smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, science and technology knowledge is beneficial to the country and the people. No matter what happens, I will vigorously promote it. In fact, it is my father who came to Beijing. It's required. He can cooperate best, even if he can't cooperate, that's okay. A Yan Shenggong is just me, how can he be my opponent!"

Speaking of this, he hugged Empress Zhou vigorously and said: "The only opponent I can value is God! And this scientific and technological knowledge is the most powerful weapon to understand God, master God, and let God be used by others. I also want Through these, we can achieve the goal of the stars and seas. If you talk too much, you don’t understand anyway, just watch it!”

Empress Zhou was really confused. Does this have something to do with God?Also, what is the sea of ​​stars?Why do you feel that His Majesty's words are a bit unpredictable!But she can still understand the last sentence, it just reassures her that His Majesty will be there for everything.

Thinking of this, Empress Zhou pressed tightly against Emperor Chongzhen's chest, listened to his strong heartbeat, and responded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I know it!"

Compared with people in the deep palace like Queen Zhou, there are still people in the outer court who can see through.For example, Shoufu Wen Tiren.

Naturally, everyone in the Wen family knew about such a sensational event outside.They were also a little worried about this, no, the housekeeper brought this up a little worriedly.After all, scientific and technological knowledge began to be promoted when Wen Tiren was the chief assistant.If the final result is that Confucianism's counterattack is counterproductive, Wen Tiren must also be jointly and severally liable, and it is impossible to serve as the chief assistant.

Looking at the bright moon in the night sky, Wen Tiren said indifferently: "Today's son Shengming, his prestige is as high as that of Taizu Chengzu, and even slightly surpassed it. With the current Yan Shenggong, it is impossible to shake the emperor. As long as the emperor insists, everything will be fine." It's not a problem!"

Having said that, he turned his head and glanced at his butler, seeing that there seemed to be worry on his face, he continued: "Your Majesty invented cement, steam engines, and the hugely influential steamships and hot air balloons, etc. , all subvert people's imagination, behind these things, can be explained by scientific and technological knowledge. These piles have already had a major and far-reaching impact on Ming Dynasty, and they are the most powerful impact on Confucianism."

"If there is no such thing, it is just that the emperor took out scientific and technological knowledge out of thin air to promote, and Yan Shenggong called the scholars all over the world to oppose it, there is a possibility of success! But..." Wen Tiren said here, with a hint of contempt on his face , looked up at Mingyue again, and at the same time said lightly: "The general trend has come, even if Yan Shenggong fully opposes it, it will only be a small wave. In the end, what should happen or what will happen!"

After hearing this, the housekeeper thought for a while, finally felt relieved, and said happily: "The master is right, so the villain can rest assured!"

Of course, people like Wen Tiren who can see clearly are still in the minority. Otherwise, Duke Yansheng's entry into Beijing would not have caused such a big commotion.

In the early morning of the next day, many scholars gathered at the gate of the post station, waiting for Yan Shenggong to come out.

They scholars, early, the street is still under curfew, late, Yan Shenggong has already entered the Forbidden City.Speaking of which, they also received the favor of Emperor Chongzhen.If Emperor Chongzhen hadn't adjusted the time of the early court, and the officials who participated in the early court would have to leave before dawn, these scholars might not be able to wait here.

Suddenly there was commotion at the door, and the door of the post station was wide open, and Yizhang filed out from the door.Just by looking at it, one can tell that it is Yan Shenggong who is about to go to the court.Immediately, the scholars waiting outside rushed over, shouting one by one, trying to communicate with the people in the sedan chair.

"Yan Shenggong, the students have been waiting here for a long time!"

"Students are doing their best for Yan Shenggong!"

"..."

Those who didn't know saw it, and all of them became impassioned, thinking that Lord Yan Sheng was going to die.I don't know if these excited scholars remembered the ancient saying of "sacrificing one's life for righteousness" and did something when the besieged city was built.

Although the entrance was very lively, the voices became louder and more excited, but Yan Shenggong never showed up.These scholars did not dare to stop, delaying Yan Shenggong's going to court.

Looking at the back of Yan Shenggong's carriage, someone suddenly shouted: "Everyone, let's go, let's go to Fengtianmen together."

"Let's go, Yan Shenggong is in the Forbidden City to advocate for the saints, and we will cheer for Yan Shenggong at Fengtianmen!"

"Yes, let all the civil and military officials see what the teachings of the sages are! It's time, disciples of Confucius and Mencius, it's time to stand up!"

"..."

Under the excitement of the crowd, these scholars held their heads high and strode towards Fengtianmen, as if they had the momentum of seeing death as home.Ordinary people will be frightened or moved by them after watching it?

When they arrived at Fengtianmen, civil and military officials also gathered here, and then listened to the sound of bells and drums and entered the Forbidden City to participate in the early court.Large groups of scholars flocked to Fengtian Gate, which naturally attracted the attention of all civil and military officials.

Some scholars among them seem to be quite radical, and even want to flock here. If there were not Jin Yiwei on duty, they would have rushed over.Even so, they still greet each other from time to time.

"Yan Shenggong asks for orders for the Holy Learning, my lords, don't forget that you are a disciple of Confucius!"

"Yes, Mr. Yansheng faces the saint, so I'll leave it up to you, my lords!"

"..."

In the ranks of civil and military officials, many people watched this scene, and all of them became energetic.Touching the memorial in the sleeve, thinking in my heart, the way is not alone!They are also people with discerning eyes. Looking at each other, it is even more exciting to find that there are more people like themselves.

Seeing Mr. Yansheng getting off the sedan chair and walking to the front of the civil and military officials, they all greeted each other enthusiastically.

"Yan Shenggong, Kong Debin, the censor of the Shandong Province of the Procuratorate, is being polite!"

"Wailang Ma Deli, member of the student household department, has met Yan Shenggong!"

"..."

Yan Shenggong walked by, not only them, but also other people greeted him, including the six ministers, cabinet ministers, etc., but Yan Shenggong remained expressionless, and he just walked to his position without answering the greetings from anyone. Standing there, and still not saying a word.

Seeing him like this, Kong Debin and the others felt more confident. They all thought, Yan Shenggong is desperate, and he will definitely refute fallacies and heresies in front of the Holy One, and try his best to keep Confucianism and Taoism alive!Otherwise, why is it so serious!It seems that there will be a war of words and guns in the morning today, and it will be famous for future generations!
One thing that made them a little unhappy was that as the sky brightened, there were more people in Fengtianmen Square.At this time, there was a quarrel over there. It seemed that scholars and craftsmen who supported scientific and technological knowledge were arguing with those scholars who came here at the beginning.

But before they had time to tell which side had the greater advantage, the bells and drums sounded, and all the officials, civil and military, entered the Forbidden City, and the morning dynasty began immediately!
