Zhu Xu and the others quickly finished eating, rested for a while, and calmly walked out of the inn and headed towards Yang. The state capital school goes.

The Royal Military Academy is currently expanded, and there are only military academies in a few places, and the Royal Military Academy is different, with tentacles and all over the Ming Dynasty.

Provincial capitals and counties, the imperial court are strictly required to have a college, the largest is often habitually called provincial school, government school, county school.

What Zhu Xu and the others are going to go to is Yang. State Governor Learning, Jan. State College.

"Childe,"

Cao Huachun followed behind Zhu Xu and introduced: "Yang. The state academy is Jiang. One of the largest schools in Suzhou, the number of students enrolled is also quite a lot, according to Jiang. According to the report from the Soviet Province, there were about 700 people, and one-third of them were civilian students. ”

Zhu Xu raised his eyebrows and said, "I remember that the requirements at that time were not less than half, right?" ”

Cao Huachun said: "Yang. State, Sue. The state and Yingtian's situation is more complicated and involves a lot of people, and after the officials have considered it, they acquiesce in this situation. ”

Zhu Xu nodded thoughtfully, this is also helpless, these places are too prosperous, and all aspects involved, the officials also have to consider the following emotions, such as salt merchants, their children are considered commoners, or 'gentry'? There are also many other large and small wealthy households, which invisibly affect this ratio.

Zhu Xu and others soon came to a large courtyard, and the plaque was handwritten with four big characters 'Yang. 'State Academy', the handwriting is rigorous, the structure is powerful, and the outside is square and the inside is round.

"Zhou Yingqiu's handwriting?" Zhu Xu put his hands behind his back and said with a smile.

The officials of the Ming Dynasty, no matter how big or small, were all born in the imperial examination, whether it was articles or calligraphy, they were outstanding, and they all liked to leave ink treasures everywhere. Many people prefer 'fame' to official positions.

Cao Huachun also smiled, because the emperor's handwriting was a little out of his hands, and few people would ask the emperor to inscribe anything, so the court officials deliberately did not leave their names, and it was relatively rare to see them here.

"Let's go, go in and have a look."

Zhu Xu dangled the folding fan in his hand and walked in with a swagger.

There was no obstruction, and there were not many people in front of the courtyard gate, and Zhu Xu and the others walked straight inside.

"Is it a vacation today?" Zhu Xu walked for a while and said suspiciously. The academy was very quiet, and I didn't see anyone coming and going.

Cao Huachun was also strange, and said, "No, I inquired before, and the vacation was two days later." ”

As soon as Cao Huachun's voice fell, Cao Bianjiao suddenly said, "Childe, look here." ”

Zhu Xu was stunned, and looked at Cao Bianjiao's hand, there was a notice, and when he got closer, he couldn't help laughing, and said, "Unfortunately, all the students were taken to military training today." ”

Cao Huachun's expression changed slightly, and he was just about to ask for guilt, when there was a shout not far away.

"Say, what does it mean that a person is not a saint or a sage?"

"Say it or not!"

"Tell me!"

Zhu Xu and the others turned their heads to look, only to see that in a corner not far from the bulletin board, a young man was blocked by several young people in fancy clothes, punching and kicking while asking fiercely.

Zhu Xu put his hands behind his back, did not move, and watched quietly.

The young man who was beaten had a blue nose and swollen face, and his whole body was covered with footprints, and he was huddled in the corner, not saying a word.

"If you don't say it, I'll call you today, and I'll call you until you can't go to class tomorrow!" The young man in the lead kicked hard and said angrily.

The face of the young man who was shrinking in the corner changed slightly, and he suddenly broke free from a few people, stood up, his eyes were red, and he said fiercely: "Who can be guilty if you are not a sage?" Where in the world are there sages! Confucius and Mencius were all deliberately picked up by later generations, aren't they human? Don't have a daddy? Since you are not a sage, why not make mistakes! ”

As soon as the three of them heard this, the leader was immediately furious, kicked him violently, kicked the young man who spoke to the ground, and gritted his teeth and said with hatred: "A saint is a saint, how can you talk nonsense at will!" ”

"Boss, take him away and hand him over to the dean for disposal!"

"Yes, if you don't respect Confucius and Meng, slander the saint, he is an evil and should be severely punished!"

The young man who was kicked on the ground, with cold sweat on his head, gritted his teeth and said, "It's you who are stubborn, only read those so-called 'classics', don't you know that you have to bow down to this matter', even if the dean punishes me today, I will never give in!" ”

The three of them were full of hatred, and the leader looked hideous, and said: "You little apprentices dare to be so rebellious, you must be severely punished, I will definitely not let you go today, I will arrest me, send it to his professor first, see what he says!" ”

"Let's go!"

"Get up, let me go!"

The three of them dragged the beaten young man up and walked towards the back of the academy.

Zhu Xu watched the young man being dragged away, with his hands behind his back, his expression unmoving, but his eyes were far and deep.

Cao Huachun and Cao Bianjiao are very puzzled, the emperor has always been uneven, why didn't he speak today?

After waiting for a while, Cao Huachun took a step closer and said in a low voice, "Childe ......"

Zhu Xu waved his hand and did not speak.

He was still thinking that this was a microcosm, something inevitable.

Although he has tried his best in the textbook, once it comes to 'seeking truth from facts', students will inevitably question the deified 'sages' when they start to think seriously, and the 'physics' course will involve 'ghosts and gods' is even more 'nonsense'.

When students question Confucianism, they are actually questioning the 'sage'.

The saint has been deified for nearly two thousand years, and who dares to question it? Even if it is Zhu Xu, the emperor, he must be cautious when it comes to this part, if one is not good, he will become the public enemy of the whole world, and the closest people will oppose him!

It's just that all reforms are physical, and ideological reforms can't wait......

Zhu Xu whispered in his heart, the scene just now is definitely not an exception, this kind of thing in other colleges, even those graduating students, when facing the old forces and old ideas, it is inevitable that they will encounter 'resistance', this 'resistance' will become more and more intense, and sooner or later a greater confrontation and storm will be formed.

'How can we make the 'natural science' and 'Confucianism' perfectly docked, and slowly over-......'?

Zhu Xu's face was calm and his eyes were cold.

Confucianism lies in imprisoning, enclosing the human mind in a cage. Zhu Xu needs to break this cage, but he can't be too intense, new ideas haven't even sprouted, and he can't 'crack' the Confucian classics naturally, which will only cause confusion in his thoughts and push the Ming Dynasty to the brink of danger.

"Thought is the product of economic development and needs, the economy of the Ming Dynasty is not enough, even if it develops like this, it may take two hundred years, I can't wait......

Zhu Xu thought in his heart, he must use thought to guide development, but how can this thought come about?

"Go find out what that student's name is." Zhu Xu's eyes lit up and he said suddenly.

Cao Huachun was just about to respond, Cao Bianjiao suddenly walked a few steps, picked up a notebook where the young people were before, walked over and handed it to Zhu Xu.

Zhu Xu took it and flipped it up.

Just after a few glances, my expression couldn't help but move.

"With the power of the world, send the people of the world"

'The king of man cannot rule the world alone. The punishment is complicated when the rule is alone, and the punishment is the same for the rule of the people'

'The ancients did not shy away from wealth, and if the people benefited from it, the wealth would be beneficial to the officials; If the government monopolizes its profits, the financial resources will be congested and the people will be harmed'

'Those who are good for the country will hide it from the people, and those who are good for the country will hide it from the people'

Zhu Xu squinted, his face moved.

This young man's thoughts, 'It's dangerous'!

The front is against the dictatorship of imperial power, and the latter talks about 'profit', supports 'gentleman's words and benefits', and hopes that the wealth of the world will be hidden from the people...... In addition, he questioned Confucius and Mencius just now, fortunately, this book did not get out, otherwise he would definitely be sent directly to the yamen, and it would not be too much to sentence him to death!

"Change Jiao, you go, find out who this person is for me, take care of it, I want to see him."

Zhu Xu took the book into his arms, even Cao Huachun was not ready to let him read it.

"Yes." Cao Bianjiao agreed and sent two people over.

Cao Huachun knew Zhu Xu's mind the most, there were signs before, and he also asked Qian Qianyi to go south to preside over the imperial examination of Yingtianfu, and now he met this young man...... I'm afraid something will happen!

Cao Huachun was worried, and took a step forward and said in a low voice: "Childe, Bi Ge Lao and the others have noticed the conflict between the students of the academy before, and they are already preparing to revise the syllabus. ”
