I'm a big dick

Chapter 121 Untitled
In addition to regular education, it is also necessary to assign a few good teachers to this silly boy who is not deeply involved in the matter, so as not to be fooled and limped.

Zhu Youxiao squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then opened his mouth and told Liu Ruoyu: "Gu Xiancheng sent a letter to save Li Sancai. Sincerely, he cut off his title as a punishment. Work for the people."

You can care about state affairs, and you can talk about government affairs, but it is too much to use your prestige to intervene in the court and defend the corrupt Li Sancai.

As the spiritual leader of the Donglin Party, suffering a blow to his reputation is more effective than dismissing ten or dozens of Donglin Party officials.

What's more, Gu Xiancheng opposes and criticizes the study of the mind, which runs counter to Zhu Youxiao's advocacy of the study of the mind, and it is reasonable to take the opportunity to suppress it.

According to the usual practice, the marking of the palace examination can be completed in one day.

The examiner will read the papers overnight that night. Usually, he will first pick out the top ten papers in the general examination and submit them to the cabinet.

If there is no accident, the top three of the first class are often produced in these ten test papers, and the other seven will also occupy the top few of the second class.

That is to say, the tributes who compete for the top three in the palace examination are basically the top ten in the examination.Those who will try to rank lower, the possibility of a counterattack is very small.

Because although the No. [-] pick was appointed by the emperor, it was selected from the ten test papers submitted by the cabinet.

Therefore, no matter how good your writing is in the palace examination, the cabinet will not submit it, and the emperor will not be able to see it.

But this time the palace examination is different, it was published in the "Da Ming Forum" in advance, the emperor will personally approve the test papers and determine the rankings.The announcement of the yellow list will also be postponed for three days.

Regardless of whether the emperor would be so laborious and diligent, the tribute scholars would rather believe in what they have than in nothing.Especially for those who ranked lower in the test, they hoped to perform exceptionally well and be spotted by the emperor at a glance.

Since the "Da Ming Tribune" newspaper was published, some people have noticed that the articles it publishes are different.

There are symbols like tadpoles, small circles, or spaces, which are equivalent to breaking the sentence of the article.

In ancient times, the primary course of Kaimeng learning was sentence reading, that is, how to break sentences when reading articles.Can't even do this, can you understand the content of a densely packed article?
And this basic learning alone will take more than a year, is it worth it?

Innovations in newspapers will naturally attract criticism, but this is determined by the royal family, and everyone has to hold their noses even if they slander.

Later, rumors gradually spread that the emperor only read the memorials with broken sentences, and the rest were recited and then reviewed by people.

If there is something good at the top, it must be done at the bottom.Since the emperor has this habit, there will naturally be people who cater to him.

The first to make changes are some ministers. It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to use punctuation marks. If you leave space to punctuate sentences, it will also make the emperor feel comfortable. Please appreciate it more?

Of course, there are also some old stubborn people who think that this is the inheritance of thousands of years. If I don’t change it, I won’t flatter you, and I won’t flatter you.

For Zhu Youxiao, you are happy to change, but anyway, I think you are old-fashioned and unusable.

But for the tributes in the palace examination, how to get the favor of Long Live is the top priority.It doesn't matter what is flattering or not.

What's more, the emperor has made it so obvious that he intends to promote the advantages and eliminate the disadvantages, and reform and enterprising.Now it's just a slight change in the writing of the article. How can you be more interested in this trivial matter?
In addition to the changes in the sentence reading of the articles, the emperor's advocacy of "heart learning" was also revealed in newspapers.

This is a very important directional signal. Just like Jiajing worshiped Taoism and cultivated immortals, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were all masters of Qing Ci.

If not, you have to study hard, otherwise, how can you have a chance to be promoted to the Holy Family?

But carefully reading the articles in the newspaper is not all "heart learning".

To the conscience, the unity of knowledge and action, this is of course the right thing to do.

However, the emperor also emphasized that learning should be applied, and that it should be practical, which seems to criticize the unrealistic style of talking in some current schools of "mind learning".

Wang Yangming probably didn't expect that his descendants would be divided into several factions.Some have even developed to the point of "refraining from reading books", that is, rejecting all social knowledge and social practice.

As a philosophy, there is no absolute distinction between good and bad theories.But what kind of sitting meditation and epiphany are you doing, as if you want to become a fairy or a saint.

In fact, almost everyone is not very clear what the young emperor believes in, it seems to be practical knowledge, and it seems to be learning from others' strengths.

Let Zhu Youxiao say that he only believes in science.For the people at that time, science was too ethereal and difficult to understand and accept.

Manufacturing utensils requires science, management requires science, finance requires science, war requires science, and even farming and land cannot be separated from science.

Now, Zhu Youxiao is scientifically reviewing the test papers of the tribute scholars.Classify first, group those who wrote the same policy theory topic together, and then evaluate and compare to distinguish the superior.

No way, the writers of the tributes are all very good.But in terms of knowledge, he was far inferior to the young emperor, and the test papers he answered certainly did not satisfy him.

It can be seen that there are high and low levels of knowledge, and Zhu Youxiao wants to choose the best among them, rather than demanding the ancients to achieve his own vision.

Although unsatisfactory, Henan Liu Lishun is concerned about the country and the people, and knows the sufferings of the people. He is still a student of Teacher Yuan, and he can be the first;

Zhu Youxiao finally made up his mind and took Liu Lishun, who was only ranked 270th and third in the examination, to the top three.

Cixi Feng Yuanbiao has some unique insights into the ban on opening the sea, probably because his hometown is located on the coast of the East China Sea, right?
Lu Xiangsheng, um, well-behaved, would it be better if he answered Wu Jinshi's test questions?
This Zodiac Zhou is very bookish, but he has a lot of energy, and he is even more stubborn.Well, there are also places where it can be used.

Wen Zhenmeng, the descendant of the national hero Wen Tianxiang...Wen Anzhi is also a national hero in history....
The young emperor read the test papers one by one. From the eager anticipation at the beginning to the indifferent mood later, Zhu Youxiao put down his demands and became a little more tolerant.

First go to the local area to practice, even if you can be honest and hard-working, and implement the new policies introduced by the court, you can be regarded as a useful minister.

"Your Majesty." Wang Tiqian entered the hall and reported, "Shen Yourong, the general of Dengzheng, has entered Beijing by order..."

Zhu Youxiao pondered for a while, and said, "Xuan Shen is welcome to enter the palace."

Shen Yourong rushed to the capital according to the order, and reported for an audience according to the rules, but he didn't expect that the emperor would call him for an audience as soon as he arrived at the post.

On the way here, he was at a loss, not knowing what the emperor's sudden call was, and the call was made as soon as he arrived in the capital, which made Shen Yourong think wildly.

The emperor is so impatient, what is the urgent matter, is it a blessing or a curse?

With speculation and apprehension in mind, Shen Yourong entered the palace and came outside Qianqing Palace.

Soon, the inner palace came out of the hall, leading Shen Yourong into the hall.
