At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Chapter 517 The Rise of Confucianism
Xu Pu had no choice but to say that he had to think about it, and then slipped away.

Cao Nai and Yang Shan also got up to leave, and Zhang Yi personally sent them out of the public room, and then went straight to the imperial study with Sun Changhai's memorial.

He no longer cares about whether people die or not. Xu Pu is right, they are just a bunch of rotten Confucians, and keeping these people will only have a negative effect on the development of Ming Dynasty.

Times have changed, now it is the Academy of Sciences, and it will always be like this in the future. As for those Confucian scholars who stick to traditional classics...

Count it, destroy it, don't care!
Unexpectedly, after reading the memorial, Zhu Qizhen did not show anger or killing intent, but threw it aside lightly.

"Your Majesty, I think..."

Zhu Qizhen waved his hand and said, "The Ministry of Rites is starting to arrange one...what's the matter?"

"Oh, it's Kaneyoshi Kanbaiichi of the Wa Kingdom."

"Whatever he does, arrange for him to see him!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Zhang Yi saluted, then hesitated, and said, "About Yuanwai Lang Sun Changhai's memorabilia..."

Zhu Qizhen asked again: "I heard that everyone from Donglin Academy is here?"

"They're all here, roughly a thousand people."

"Ok!"

Zhu Qizhen pondered for a moment, and then said: "The great Confucian who lectured, named Sun Changhe, is a relative of Sun Changhai, right?"

"Exactly, the two are brothers of the same clan."

"You go and inform the Hanlin Academy to organize a lecture, and I will go and listen to it in person when the time comes."

Zhang Yi was very puzzled, the emperor didn't like the Hanlin Academy, and he didn't like listening to them talk about the Four Books and Five Classics, what happened today?
Could it be that seeing more and more students joining Donglin Academy, are you ready to compromise?

"Remember to call that Sun Changhe as well. Isn't this person coming to the capital to promote Confucianism? I will give him this opportunity."

Zhang Yi was completely dumbfounded. If the emperor ordered to kill all these people without further ado, it would be easier to accept.

But now this attitude should not be...

You know, the emperor just experienced a coup not long ago, hated the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River to the bone, killed a lot of people, blood flowed like a river, why did he suddenly change his temper?

"Why, what's the problem?"

"This, this... the minister will do it now!"

Zhang Yi saluted and resigned, thinking in his heart, what do you like, I won't guess, I'm tired!

The next day, news suddenly came out from the Imperial Academy that a banquet would be held three days later to teach the scriptures, and it was specifically stated that the emperor would be there in person.

As soon as this news came out, Confucian scholars in the entire capital were rushing to tell each other, tears filled their eyes with excitement.

In recent years, the emperor has been more and more inclined to the Academy of Sciences, and has long since disregarded the Imperial Academy. Now the students of traditional Confucianism have no use for them, and they panic every day.

Such a life is not easy, because being idle means not being taken seriously, and to put it more bluntly, it means losing the opportunity to become a center of power.

Han Chuang studied hard for more than ten years, why?
Isn't it just for that privilege?

If the privileges are gone, the sky will collapse, the rituals will collapse and music will be destroyed, and the country will be destroyed!

In order to safeguard one's own interests and regain the lost privileges, one can only express one's feelings by remembering the ancients, what is not as good as it used to be, and imagine the great rule of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors at every turn, and so on.

Some people will say some exaggerated things in private, of course, you can't say bad things about the emperor, it can only be a traitor...

However, I can't say too much about this, because... it's a taboo!

Today's news made everyone see the dawn of victory again.

It goes without saying that the Hanlin Academy is actively preparing, the Jiangsu Guild Hall where Sun Changhe stayed is already full of people.

This person is known as a great Confucian in the south of the Yangtze River. Although he was just a juren, it is said that he stopped taking the imperial examination very early, but devoted himself to the study of the Four Books and Five Classics. His spirit has been admired by countless people.

This time the emperor asked Sun Changhe to participate in the lecture by name. For the students of Donglin Academy, it seems that they have survived the last darkness before dawn, and the next will be infinite light!

Many officials in the capital even visited the door in person, and their flattery was beyond words.

Wang Jing, a scholar studying in the Imperial Academy, was ordered to send an invitation card, saying: "Mr. There is no benevolence, righteousness, propriety or wisdom above the hall, and it is an honor for us to invite you to come to the lecture tomorrow."

Sun Changhe didn't answer in a hurry, but smiled, looking unpredictable.

Definitely going to have to go, but...

What is our identity?
You send out an invitation, and I immediately agree, doesn't it seem like a drop in price?
"The old man has long since neglected to care about worldly affairs, and now he has devoted himself to studying classics, history and classics. This time, he came to Beijing to discuss Confucianism with his classmates and friends back then. That's all, and he has no other thoughts."

"gentlemen!"

Xia Shaopeng, Cen Guangyao, Wei Hao and other disciples knelt on the ground with tears in their eyes.

"The world's rites and music are broken, if you don't leave the mountain, what will happen to the common people?"

After hearing this, Sun Changhe sighed, and said: "The old man has no fame, so it is inconvenient to ask about the affairs of the court. Now I am invited by Shengen, it is really a dilemma, alas..."

Wang Jing hurriedly said: "I also hope that Mr. Don't refuse!"

After Sun Changhe sighed again, he said to his disciples: "I ruled the world with benevolence and filial piety, but now my morals have fallen, and my heart is not ancient, which is not a sign of prosperity! If I can take this opportunity to speak to the emperor, I am worthy of a saint." Wang Hanlin, please rest assured, the old man will definitely go tomorrow!"

"Students are waiting for you sir!"

Wang Jing's mission was completed, so he naturally left happily.

The students of Donglin Academy were also overjoyed. If the master can show his face in front of the emperor, Confucianism will rise again.

After struggling for so long, I finally made it through!
"Mr. thinks of the common people, and the students admire him."

"Mr. Dayi!"

"All right!"

Sun Changhe waved his hand and said, "There shouldn't be too many people going to give lectures tomorrow, how about this, Xia Shaopeng, Cen Guangyao, Wei Hao, the three of you have followed this old man for the longest time, and when the time comes, you will follow me by my side. Followed in."

The three of Xia Shaopeng hurriedly kowtowed their heads to thank them, and they will have a face-to-face meeting tomorrow!

Such an honor, ordinary people dare not even think about it.

The three of them were already thinking in their hearts, if they had a chance to perform well tomorrow and be favored by the emperor, wouldn't the glory and wealth of this life come to them!
The others only have envy in their eyes. In terms of seniority, Xia Shaopeng and the other three are indeed the most senior. They have followed Mr. Donglin Academy since the day it was established.

However, as long as traditional Confucianism can make a comeback, there is hope for all.
