Chongzhen chat group

Chapter 1213

To be honest, Yan Shenggong's answer was a bit beyond Emperor Chongzhen's expectations.

Originally, he just instructed Wang Chengen to ask Yan Shenggong to express his support for the promotion of science and technology when he went to see Yan Shenggong.However, Yan Shenggong raised scientific and technological knowledge to the same status as Confucianism for thousands of years from the opening remarks of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and even said that it is even worse than that.There is even a strong demand for the reform of the existing imperial examinations and the addition of scientific and technological knowledge.

At some point, Emperor Chongzhen even doubted whether this Duke Yansheng had also traveled from a later age, so he understood the importance of scientific and technological knowledge, so he made such a reasonable statement.

However, when he came back to his senses, he immediately realized that this was actually a cunning and cunning guy.The reason is very simple. This old guy is definitely not willing to replace Yan Shenggong. Under this premise, he should have seen the influence of science and technology along the way.

Although along the way, so many scholars like scholars followed him to Beijing, but from a certain point of view, if there is no wave of scientific and technological knowledge, can so many scholars follow him to Beijing after eating enough?

Moreover, above the imperial court, in the most important position of the seven ministries, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, is Xu Guangqi, who is the most determined in promoting science and technology.If the officials of the world want to have a smooth and smooth official road, they must follow the ideas of the officials of the Ministry of Officials.There is also the most authoritative Minister of Rites in Ming Dynasty, who is a student of Xu Guangqi and a well-known Sun Yuanhua who firmly supports science and technology.And the prince's master, too.

The crown prince is the successor of the emperor, the next round of the Ming emperor, and the crown prince’s masters are selected as officials who support scientific and technological knowledge. Advocate.

But in this early court, none of the officials above the fourth rank came out to persuade the emperor to suddenly use the court staff as an excuse.Although the emperor made a good excuse, it proves that none of the high-ranking officials in the court is a die-hard loyalist of the Kong family.

In this way, Yan Shenggong immediately emphasized that Confucianism and scientific and technological knowledge should be equally important, so that Confucianism can maintain its proper status, and it will not appear in the situation of dominating scientific and technological knowledge and putting Confucianism together as in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.Calculated in this way, his Yan Shenggong has contributed to Confucianism and Taoism, and to the Confucian family.

Emperor Chongzhen thought so much, but at Shoufu Wen Tiren's place, he simply commented in three words: "Know current affairs!"

However, many people were a little stunned when they heard Yan Shenggong's words. They couldn't think of it at all, especially those officials who had their butts beaten.For them, shouldn't Yan Shenggong uphold Confucianism?How can you say such shameless words, how can you go to see Confucius when you die in the future?Thanks to myself, I have prepared a memorial, waiting to protect Confucianism together!Could it be that his imperial staff was in vain?

Emperor Chongzhen on the throne, regardless of other people, looked at Yan Shenggong and said with a smile: "When I visited Yingtian Mansion in the south last year, I remember that I said in a restaurant that the study of Confucius and Mencius lies in thought. "Science and technology knowledge lies in skill, and the two do not conflict, but complement each other. Now Kong Qing's words coincide with mine. I am very relieved, so, what you said, I agree!"

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand to signal again: "Kong Qing is flat!"

When Yan Shenggong heard it, he quickly thanked him and stood up.At this time, for some reason, he felt at ease.The emperor said in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty that the study of Confucius and Mencius lies in thought, while the knowledge of science and technology lies in skills, and the two do not conflict.That is to say, the Confucian Mansion's status is not worry-free!

As for the courtiers below, for the military officers among them, the content of the imperial examination, whether science and technology knowledge is added, has nothing to do with them, so they are not touched much, just watching the excitement.At most, some foresighted people can consider the changes they may bring about after scientific and technological knowledge is valued.

But for the civil servants, they were all surprised when they heard the match between Yan Shenggong and Emperor Chongzhen.Even some people who already had a hunch were surprised when this matter came to a conclusion in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

This matter has never happened in the previous dynasties.Adding science and technology knowledge to the content of the imperial examination will bring the most direct and profound changes to Ming Dynasty and future scholars!The imperial examination system, starting from the Sui and Tang Dynasties, has started a new major change!

The emergence of the imperial examination system allowed scholars to "take an ultimatum to advance themselves" without having to be specially recommended by ministers or prefects and counties. For Tian Shelang, Mu Deng Tian Zi Tang "became possible.

Of course, this so-called poor family student is not really a poor family, poor people.At that time, it cost a lot of money to study.These poor students, compared to the aristocratic families, have a lower-middle standard of living, but they can afford to study.

During the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial examination system experienced another major change, that is, the emergence of stereotyped essays.Suggested by many ministers, the eight-legged essay with strict format requirements was finally formed on the basis of the previous generations.

The purpose of this stereotyped essay is to facilitate the marking of papers, and to minimize the artificial judgment of the pros and cons of the essay during the exam at that time.The requirements of this situation, even in later generations, actually exist.For example, the papers of later generations, and some official documents, all have specific requirements, but they are not as strict as the stereotyped essays.

The emergence of stereotyped essays also profoundly changed the imperial examination relationship of scholars in Ming Dynasty.

Now, at the suggestion of Yan Shenggong, Emperor Chongzhen has made a final decision, and the imperial examination will include an examination of scientific and technological knowledge.In this way, the imperial examination system has come to a time of major reform. There is no doubt about this.

While the civil servants were thinking about this great change, Emperor Chongzhen was already talking.I heard him say to the courtiers seriously: "Although the imperial examination has been set to include scientific and technological knowledge, considering the current situation, I have decided that starting this year, only the county and government examinations will add scientific and technological knowledge. Others The level of scientific examinations will remain unchanged for the time being. Wait for the children's examination after next year, add the examination of scientific and technological knowledge, the rural examination after the next year, add the examination of scientific and technological knowledge, and so on. This is it!"

The imperial examinations, starting with the rural examinations, are only held every three years.That is to say, for those at the scholar level, there is still a lot of buffer time for the Juren examination and subsequent examinations.The reason why Emperor Chongzhen did this was not because he was afraid that scholars would rebel.Isn't there a saying that a scholar can't rebel for three years.

He took into account that the promotion of science and technology knowledge was not mandatory before, except for learning in children's schools.Under such a background, it is a bit unreasonable to directly add scientific and technical knowledge to the examination content.Therefore, only those students in children's schools are forced to test scientific and technical knowledge in the county and government examinations.

After this court meeting, everything has come to a conclusion.In this way, in official institutions such as county schools and Guozijian, it is necessary to formally start learning scientific and technological knowledge.Taking the exam after three years is also a chance to learn.

This principle, these courtiers basically understand.Therefore, after Emperor Chongzhen finished speaking, he realized that the emperor was not radical, so he bowed down to echo him under the leadership of his chief assistant, Wen Tiren.

With Yan Shenggong's platform, it has given scholars all over the world a chance to buffer. I believe that there will be no major obstacles to the officialization of scientific and technological knowledge.Emperor Chongzhen was in a good mood thinking this way, so he smiled at Yan Shenggong and said, "Kong Qing's act of distinguishing right from wrong today will definitely be praised by future generations. If you don't believe me, just wait and see!"

"Your Majesty's words offend this humble minister." Upon hearing this, Yan Shenggong quickly echoed respectfully: "This humble minister is only telling the truth, telling the truth!"

Listening to the sympathetic conversation between the two monarchs and ministers, those civil servants with blooming buttocks scolded each other in their hearts.If he had known such an ending earlier, it would be better to wait until Yan Shenggong finished speaking before taking any action.That way, once he heard Yan Shenggong's words, he wouldn't rush out again.It was all caused by Kong Debin and Ma Deli, this account must be charged to the two of them!

Today, I am ashamed!

But at this time, Kong Debin and Ma Deli were also complaining in their hearts, and they were also spanked.Because of Yan Shenggong's betrayal, and because of the court staff of a large number of them, the debate between good and evil that was originally thought to be fierce has become a one-sided situation.In other words, those who want to oppose the promotion of scientific and technological knowledge cannot even make waves.

Look at those colleagues who were also beaten, look at the hateful eyes they stared at me, whether it is Kong Debin or Ma Deli, they all know that they have offended their colleagues, there are still nearly two hundred of them, it's over, it's over, in the future How are you doing?
In the harem, Empress Zhou was already worried when she got up in the morning and sent Emperor Chongzhen to court.Even if Emperor Chongzhen comforted her again before leaving, it could not reassure her.The position of the crown prince was finally determined, and now there are major events that affect the crown prince. She really wants to know what will happen to the situation in the early court?
Queen Zhou was still a very well-behaved person. Although she was very concerned, she didn't send anyone to inquire about the news. She just waited anxiously.Waiting until, one after another, screams suddenly came from outside the palace.

"Your Majesty, this is His Majesty's court staff, and there are probably quite a few officials who have been punished." The experienced servant just heard it and said.

When Queen Zhou heard this, she became even more nervous.Listening to the emperor's intentions, he was so confident, why in the blink of an eye, all of them became court officials.Looking at it this way, isn't it that things are very tense?
Seeing that she was so worried, a female official who was close to her stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, why don't you go to the front to inquire about the situation?"

"Impossible!" Queen Zhou immediately shook her head and said, "You must not inquire without His Majesty's order!"

So, I have been waiting in this torment.

Finally, with the sound of "the emperor is coming", Queen Zhou rushed up to meet her.

"Your Majesty, what's the situation? Has Duke Yan objected? Your Majesty won't attract Duke Yan, right? You didn't beat Duke Yan's staff, did you?"

Listening to the series of questions from Empress Zhou, Emperor Chongzhen thought about what would happen if he really ordered to beat Shenggong's imperial staff?I'm afraid a bunch of people will persuade you, right?It is estimated that those scholars waiting outside the Meridian Gate will also be violent!

Thinking about it was funny, Emperor Chongzhen shook his head and said with a smile: "I have already said what the queen is worried about. It's okay. Duke Yansheng came to see me in the capital to propose that I reform the imperial examinations. technical knowledge!"

"What?" Empress Zhou was taken aback, and quickly confirmed, "Your Majesty said that it was Yan Shenggong's suggestion to reform the imperial examination..."

Emperor Chongzhen looked at the surprised Empress Zhou with a smile, and said with a smile: "Whoever says no, tell the empress the truth. My science and technology knowledge is self-contained, surpassing many academic schools in ancient times. From now on, I will not only be the Emperor of Ming Dynasty , is also a school of masters!"

At this moment, I heard a "ding" in my mind, and the system's voice sounded: "The science and technology school created by the host has become the content of the imperial examination, and it plays a vital role in the powerful existence of Ming Dynasty. Sincerely respect the knowledge of the host, regardless of the distance, you can get achievement points!"

After the system's voice prompt, I saw that the achievement value in the lower left corner of the chat group rose crazily.

The appearance of this situation stunned Emperor Chongzhen. He did not expect that the system still had this kind of operation. It seems that he was really not raised by his stepmother!

But thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem very surprising.As the system said, after scientific and technological knowledge becomes a part of the Ming Dynasty's imperial examination, it will inevitably spread the scientific and technological knowledge of the Ming Dynasty at the fastest speed and to the greatest extent.In this way, Daming’s development in science and technology, with the technology of Daming’s population, has its own leader, and still uses the knowledge of later generations to guide and promote it as an emperor. Don’t say that it surpasses the achievements of the Renaissance in the West. This is completely fine. Advance human scientific civilization by hundreds of years abruptly.

With this as a basis, the goal of Da Ming becoming an empire on which the sun never sets and conquering the stars and the sea is no longer an illusory dream!This chat group system was invented by Huang Han. For such a major achievement, there must be rewards!

The achievement value finally increased slowly when it reached around 500 million achievement points. Emperor Chongzhen knew that this was the contribution of those affected by the promotion of scientific and technological knowledge in the early stage.In this way, I don't need to earn achievement points, it is enough to buy out the 2000 million achievement points for taking pictures.

In other words, I can establish a national population data system next!
　I'm dizzy today, I don't have any status at all, it should affect tomorrow's update, maybe it won't be updated on time at 7 o'clock, sorry.
