Chapter 174: social revolution

Qian Qianyi took office and started work soon.

He first published an article "Encouraging Learning" in the People's Daily. This persuasion is not to persuade everyone to learn the Four Books and Five Classics, but to persuade more scholars to learn physical chemistry, geography and arithmetic.

In his article, he elaborated on the importance and role of these miscellaneous studies, and persuaded the majority of scholars not to be prejudiced against miscellaneous studies, but to dabble in them.

Qian Qianyi's reputation is very big, and his signed articles will naturally be rushed to read.

This is the function of influence, a bit like the common knowledge of later generations.

Most ordinary people can hardly understand some of the complex phenomena in this world, and have no ability to investigate and study the truth. They can only choose to trust some celebrities who seem to be culturally knowledgeable.

And these public knowledge can entrain some private goods during the popularization of science, and promote one's own thoughts, commonly known as bringing goods.

Qian Qianyi used to be an official book of the Ministry of Etiquette and is a well-known person in this era. Many scholars choose to believe his words without thinking.

Some scholars who do not agree with Qian Qianyi's views will also be afraid of Qian Qianyi's reputation, so they dare not easily question it.

The Book of Etiquette, equivalent to a leader, is very prestigious.

By the Xuanwu Lake, a group of scholars about twenty years old were on an outing, and there were two or three young women in their teens as their companions.

These women are the daughters of several big families in the city. According to etiquette and rules, women who have not been out of the cabinet are not allowed to go out and show their faces.

However, this rule is the same as the rule of later generations to dress decently in public. This is the rule, but even if there is a person wearing only underwear, everyone will laugh at best and will not be true.

Women's training stipulates that unmarried women are not allowed to go to the streets during non-holiday periods. But if anyone really took to the street, everyone would curse shamelessly at most and would not interfere.

This kind of restraint is limited, and naturally it cannot restrain some of the more rebellious girls.

In the past, the scholars on outings mostly talked about poetry and novel stories related to literature.

But now, these scholars have one more topic, that is, the various current affairs and government decrees in the people's newspapers.

"I wonder if you have read the latest issue of the Minbao. There is Mr. Muzhai's article "Encouraging Learning". Unexpectedly, Mr. Muzhai also advocated us to learn those strange literature and miscellaneous studies. Times are changing drastically."

It was Li Gongzi who provoked the topic, and now it has become his habit to read people's newspapers.

"I also read it, alas, I don’t know what Mr. Mu Zhai thinks, why he suddenly admires those strange literature and miscellaneous studies so much. You know, the four books and five classics are the right way to imperial examination, and to persuade everyone to learn the four books and five classics Yeah."

The other prince sighed. He obviously couldn't accept such a rapid social change at once.

"I don't think the imperial examination is expected. Who knows when the imperial examination will be restarted."

Young Master Xu said with emotion.

"What does Brother Xu mean? Now that the South has been settled, there is no reason not to open the imperial examination. I think this autumn exam will definitely be held."

Wang Gongzi speculated.

Mr. Xu sneered and shook his head when he heard the words, and asked, "Where is the event, Shaoxing? In Shaoxing, even the official salary is almost impossible to send out. How can there be money to run the imperial examination. As for Nanjing, I think Wu Guogong is on the Imperial Examination Quite prejudiced, I just want to run a university, and I will definitely not spend money to run imperial examinations."

Obviously, Mr. Xu had to be more informed about the news and knew a lot about the DPRK.

Because his father, who is currently an official in Shaoxing, knows some inside information.

"Without the imperial examination, how does the imperial court choose officials? Don't they need to choose officials to govern the place?"

Gongzi Li did not believe what Xu Gongzi said. The imperial examinations lasted for thousands of years. It is understandable that the occasional suspension of the war for a year or two is understandable, but it is impossible to keep it open. This is the main way for the court to obtain talents.

"Brother Li, don't you know that as long as people in the university have good grades, they can be directly appointed officials. Now a large number of talents come to Nanjing to join Wu Guogong, even Lord Ruan and Lord Qian are here. Plus Selecting some people in the university hall, Wu Guogong now has no shortage of manpower, and there is no need to conduct imperial examinations."

Mr. Xu smiled, as if mocking the innocence of other people.

This.......

The words of Master Xu left everyone speechless, because the current situation seemed to be the case. But if it continues like this, then they will be very bad. Those four books and five classics that have been studied hard for years, aren't they all for nothing?

"Aren't you stupid, can you just apply for college entrance if you want to be an official?"

It was Tong Youwei's daughter, Tong Xiangyu, who was very disdainful of the entanglement of those scholars.

What she said is more heartbreaking to some people, because some of them did go to the exam, but unfortunately they didn't. And one

Some people have an ostrich mentality and are unwilling to change.

Others have faith in the imperial examinations and do not look down on the university.

In short, there are various reasons.

They don't want to change and want to be officials, so they can only hope that the imperial examinations will be reopened. For the situation that they can be directly appointed as officials in the university hall, they are naturally gnashing their teeth. That is robbing them of their future.

"In the university hall, the orthodox four books and five classics are not valued at all. It is said that in the classics class, one in ten people do not have one, and the teacher does not care about it. When it comes to physical chemistry, there are no empty seats.

This kind of teaching content is simply a blasphemy against orthodoxy, and I am determined not to go to the university hall. I just waited for the reopening of the imperial examination, and then lifted it in one go. "

The Prince looked very angry, and the reason was very simple. He secretly bought the textbooks of elementary physics and chemistry. The knowledge described above seemed to him to be outrageous and unreasonable.

Therefore, he is resolutely unwilling to learn this kind of sidetracking.

"I think those miscellaneous studies are very interesting, more useful than the Four Books and Five Classics. It is said that those perfume glasses are made based on those miscellaneous knowledge."

Tong Xiangyu did not agree with Wang Gongzi's point of view.

If another scholar said this, the prince might be going back. But it was Tong Xiangyu who retorted him, and he had to hold back and sighed in his heart.

He dislikes this kind of social change.

"Xiangyu is right. Let's go to the university hall. Anyway, I will definitely not miss the next enrollment assessment, otherwise the old man in my family will beat me up.

In the words of the old man in my family, as long as you succeed in your studies in the university hall, you can directly become a sixth-grade and fifth-grade official, which is much better than the imperial examination. "

Xu Gongzi said.

"Brother Xu, you are in the limelight, and there is no arrogance at all. When are we scholars, when will we be reduced to learning those miscellaneous studies to obtain official positions."

The prince despised it.

It's a pity that it is difficult for him to shake Young Master Xu's determination.

"I really envy you that you can go to the university hall. Unlike us, you can only buy a book and study it quietly. After reading two chapters, you are still at a loss. The knowledge in this book is too profound."

Tong Xiangyu said with emotion.
