Alliance of the Heavens and Ming Dynasty

Chapter 258 Cultural Exchange
The students of the Zhengde Dynasty were sent to various dynasties to study and practice, and they produced a lot of moths.

Confucian scholars who are serious about the eight classics are fine, they are the most able to adapt to the environment of each dynasty, and even highly respect the customs and customs of each dynasty.

After all, the preferential treatment given to scholars by various dynasties is not comparable to that of the Zhengde Dynasty.

In the territories of various dynasties, as long as he passed the examination of a scholar, he would basically be able to live a life without worry. Not only did he not have to pay taxes, but many people would take the initiative to give him money.

However, in the Zhengde Dynasty, there was no preferential treatment. At most, when they entered school, they could be exempted from school depending on the family situation. If you want to avoid paying taxes, it is simply a dream.

Those who don’t pay taxes are already finished, either farming in Liaodong, or going to see King Yama.

In the eyes of many Confucian scholars in the Zhengde Dynasty, each dynasty is simply a paradise, and it is so kind to them Confucian scholars!
There is no harm without comparison!
Scholars are often the most greedy. They want money when they get power, and they want more when they get money. However, the scholars who have experienced the "beating" of the Zhengde dynasty have learned to restrain their greed, because the dynasties really give more.

Many Confucian scholars in the Zhengde Dynasty, after seeing the various preferential treatment of literati in various dynasties, suddenly had the idea of ​​never returning to the Zhengde Dynasty.

Heaven is right in front of them, why should they go back to the mortal world of Zhengde Dynasty, and stand side by side with those stinky mounds.

Those who are righteous are mostly dog ​​slaughterers, and those who are heartless are mostly scholars!
A trip to study and practice fully demonstrated the true meaning of this sentence.

For more than ten years, Zhu Houzhao broke the backbone of Confucian scholars, but failed to erase the self-righteous nobility in their bones.

There are two sides to everything in the world. Six out of ten Confucian scholars who go out to study and practice will never return, but no matter what, there are still a few who are clear-headed and not confused by the superficial "prosperity" of various dynasties.

Like Zhou Hao, who is quite chivalrous while singing across swords; like Su Mu, who loves to read "Song of Righteous Qi"; like Hong Wentao, who does things with a strict eye.
This trip to study and practice is like a magic mirror, weed out all the scholars with impure minds, and the rest are the elite among the elite, who will become the pillars of the country in the future.

Among the scholars who never come back even after going, there are a few who are well-educated, but they are not loyal enough, so what is the use of it.

The Confucian scholars made a lot of jokes this time, but the students from other schools flexed their muscles and caused quite a storm in various dynasties.

Physicians, Legalists, Public Losers, Mohists, Taoists, Military Strategists, Robbers, Yin-Yang Schools, Gemologists.
The Zhengde Dynasty is specious, and it only wears a hundred schools of thought, which can be said to shine in all dynasties, wantonly propagandizing how the Zhengde Dynasty favored elites from all walks of life, making the three religions and nine streams of each dynasty full of enthusiasm for the Zhengde Dynasty Yearning.

In all dynasties, the policy of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce was followed. No matter how outstanding the three religions and nine streams were, the status and treatment were not very high. However, the emergence of the Zhengde Dynasty just gave those capable and skilled people a chance.

In a short period of time, a large number of skilled craftsmen, capable people and strangers frantically poured into the Zhengde Dynasty.

Although there are many people who are just pretending to be fake, but there are still a lot of people with real skills.

As a result, Zhu Houzhao reaped another wave of talents.

The disciples of the Hundred Schools of Sun Moon Academy brought a large number of talents from all walks of life to Zhengde Dynasty, but they also caused a lot of trouble.

It's like Chen Ahsan, who likes to steal tombs from the robber family, didn't dare to mess around in Zhengde Dynasty, but went outside like a wild horse, messing around unscrupulously.

Near Luoyang in the Xuande Dynasty, he dug thirteen large graves in one day, and his behavior was extremely rampant. In the end, Jin Yiwei caught him and sent him back to the Zhengde Dynasty, and ordered him to be banned from entering the Xuande Dynasty for life.

Zhu Houzhao was also extremely annoyed by this, and the embarrassment was thrown abroad.

It's just that he was busy with his affairs, and he forgot about it the next day, so he failed to punish Chen Ah San severely and let him escape by luck.

The students of the Zhengde Dynasty traveled to study and practice in various dynasties, and they became prosperous. Not to be outdone, all dynasties encouraged domestic literati to go out and experience more.

When the literati from various dynasties came to the Zhengde Dynasty and saw the customs, culture and political trends of the Zhengde Dynasty, they were all shocked and even unbelievable.

Fanwang: Apart from bearing the title of Fanwang, there is nothing else. The country does not pay to support the Fanwang, and the emperor also supports the Fanwang to separate his family and rely on himself.

Businessman: It is time to pay taxes and taxes, and if you don’t pay taxes, you will ransack your home.

Scholars: No privileges, no preferential treatment, only the disciples of a hundred schools of thought keep squeezing the living space of the Confucian school.

Official: If you can, do it. If you can’t, go to Liaodong to farm and have children.

Everything about the Zhengde Dynasty gave scholars of all dynasties a refreshing feeling, and the three views that had been cultivated for many years were shattered by the impact.

In particular, the Zhengde dynasty's policy on literati sons was even more unacceptable to them.

No privileges, no preferential treatment, how can it show the nobility of scholars, how can noble scholars stand side by side with ordinary mud legs and stinky mounds.

"A tyrant, a tyrant who has never existed in the ages, if he treats scholars like this, isn't he afraid of suffering the disaster of subjugation of the country?"

Some scholars couldn't accept what they saw, and cursed in the street.

"Brother Wang, don't talk nonsense!"

Immediately, someone covered the scholar's mouth, fearing that he would continue to speak rudely and contradict Tianwei.

This is the Zhengde dynasty, not their dynasty, and talking nonsense can easily lead to disaster.

Moreover, the emperor of the Zhengde Dynasty had a bad temper. If they were punished and thrown to Liaodong to farm, they would be Muggles. Their thin skin and tender flesh could not withstand the harsh environment of Liaodong.

There are not a few scholars who scold Zhu Houzhao like this, and are dissatisfied with Zhu Houzhao's policy of suppressing Confucianism. With their thinking and IQ, they can't understand why Zhu Houzhao is doing.

Students from the Zhengde Dynasty went to other dynasties to study and practice, and students from other dynasties came to Zhengde Dynasty to study and learn. This is a great ideological and cultural exchange, which will surely collide with incomparably brilliant brilliance.

In a short period of time, you may not see any substantial benefits, but in the long run, it will be of great benefit to the sixteen dynasties of the Ming Dynasty.

The collision of ideas and ideas can create miracles.

Zhu Houzhao single-handedly promoted the cultural exchanges of the Sixteen Dynasties, not only looking at the immediate interests, but his bigger plans are yet to come.

Learn from each other's strengths and make up for your weaknesses, get rid of the bad and get the essence.

Always the best expression of a country's progress.

If because his own Zhengde dynasty possesses technical power and advantages that other dynasties do not have at present, he despises all dynasties and feels that each dynasties have no advantages, then Zhu Houzhao's tolerance is a bit narrow.

When a person starts to despise others, he is already stepping into the abyss step by step.

It is not easy for Zhu Houzhao to get to where he is today, so every time he takes a step, he will review whether he has gone the wrong way.

In this time of great controversy, he dared not be careless, contemptuous of all dynasties, and Yelang's arrogance never appeared in his heart.

The more tense the situation, the calmer he is.

"Your Majesty, I heard that some students who went out to study and practice don't plan to come back again. Should I take a certain action strategy?"

Yang Shen, the president of the Hundred Schools Association, asked, nominally asking how to deal with those students who refused to come back, but actually testing Zhu Houzhao's attitude towards Confucianism.

　The cultural exchange of Ming and Sixteen Dynasties was inspired by the European Renaissance!But it is not exactly the same as the Renaissance, it will not involve the spirit of humanism, it is just a reference, don't confuse it!
