The fiasco at the banquet was tantamount to a heavy slap in the face of the scholars, and Zhengde's last few words directly knocked out a few front teeth of the scholars, making them unable to fill the façade if they wanted to.

This time is different from the past, the first few times Xie Hong lost face, the ministers can be inferred that Xie Hong is insidious and cunning, and the dogs are powerful, and the gentlemen have never been wary, so they are on the way. But this time, these excuses are not easy to say again, after all, they were in front of everyone, and they were dumbfounded by Xie Hong.

In the end, the score of 1 to 0 made them even more ashamed, a person who does not read, can get the title of Hanlin purely by luck; And the other party's question, they can only be at a loss, and all the ministers feel embarrassed.

It's not that no one wants to argue that Xie Hong's problems are all evil and insignificant, but with Zhengde's words as a footnote, who can say this kind of thing? Regardless of whether he disdains or doesn't understand, just say that a person who doesn't read the books of sages can use all kinds of small ways to ask all the Hanlin, no, it should be said that it is the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty...... Can such a trail, a trail of such a profound degree, still be called a trail?

Hallymin was closed that day. A feast? Don't mention it again, the emperor just needs to ask: Has Aiqing learned the principle of leverage? Everyone had no choice but to hide their faces and leave.

It is impossible to bow down to Xie Hong's annihilation to learn Qiyin skills, and all the great talents can't afford to lose that person. can't answer the emperor's question, when the sutra feast is held, the Hanlin people have to be students, but they don't learn and don't have skills, well, now I have to say that Xie Hong, who doesn't learn skills, is a lecturer, which makes everyone who has been studying hard for decades under the cold window feel embarrassed!

What's more, the Hanlin Academy is now leaderless, and Zhang Yuanzhen, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, fainted on the spot after Zhengde finished speaking, and he didn't know what to do. Subsequently, although the imperial physician was summoned in time for diagnosis and treatment, several imperial physicians who checked the condition and said that they were unable to return to heaven.

Master Zhang is more than ten years older than Xie Qian, he is already in his seventies, and he has been ill for a long time, if it weren't for the fact that this time was very important, so that he could see the glorious prospect of leaving a name in history, the old man would not be able to fight this spirit.

Now, the illusion of longing has been shattered, and the Hanlin Academy not only failed to reach the peak under his leadership, but fell from the original clouds.

In the past, when encountering Zhang Yuanzhen's situation, the officials must have been sparse, accusing the emperor of not being sympathetic to the old minister. But in today's situation, they are also dumbfounded, who let them be there at that time? Who let the emperor's sigh trap them inside?

At this time, it is not to say that it is to advise the king, but more like a defeated dog barking. This sentence was not said by the officials themselves, but began to circulate in the market after the feast.

Although the secret surname of the palace is poor, under normal circumstances, this kind of thing will not be spread today, the courtiers have collectively lost face, and of course they and their subordinates will not spread it outside, and there is Wang Yue in the palace, under strict constraints, who dares to rap?

But who made their opponent Xie Hong, Xie Hong is so upright, no matter what he does, he likes to be above board, he slapped so many people, of course he can't just be happy himself, publicize it, and let everyone be cool together, which is the right reason.

Now that he has a serious pen, Xie Hong doesn't have to do it himself if he wants to spread any rumors, as long as he explains, there will naturally be Ma Ang Zhang Luo, and the third father-in-law will start writing. Moreover, the third father-in-law was still present at the time, and he had a personal feeling, and what he wrote was even more vivid, which made people feel immersive after listening to it.

After this court debate, in the minds of the people, the sacred aura of the Hanlin Academy and even the scholars began to fade, and under the guidance of Houdefang, it was better to only read the scriptures and history, or to touch the bypass, which caused widespread debate in the capital.

Reading the history of the scriptures can be in the imperial examination, and then the cabinet worships the prime minister, the scenery is infinite, this is a deeply rooted concept in the hearts of the people, with fame, or people who have great hope of getting fame will naturally not waver.

But after all, there are only a few people who can get fame, if you can't get fame, then there is no use for hard work, and it is useless to be a scholar, and this is not a slander, but a common proverb formed after seeing too much.

Nowadays, there are special people in Houdefang who explain the topics raised by Xie Hong in the court debate, and every time he explains a topic, he will explain it once, that is: The reason why Master Xie has amazing skills is because he has mastered a science called Gewu; The reason why he was able to conceive sports such as billiards and baseball is because he understands anthropology and psychology.

At the beginning, there were still few people who believed, and the craftsmanship was not passed on, and many craftsmen were like this, and ordinary people did not understand the craft, but they understood the truth. But as those topics were explained one by one, some people gradually enlightened, pulleys, levers, gears, these things are indeed being used by Jumbo Zhai in various fields.

Although the construction of Zhenbao Zhai is confidential, it is all for the safety of personnel, not for the sake of confidential technology. In addition to the core technology, Xie Hong is not stingy with other technologies, so as long as people who are interested in observing will confirm what they heard in Houdefang with the products or projects of Zhenbao Zhai, they will quickly come to a conclusion.

Lord Xie didn't deceive people, if he mastered the knowledge called Gewu, even if he couldn't compare to Lord Xie's talent, the skills he could learn would be enough to make him stand out.

As more and more people understand this truth, Jumbo Zhai finally has a move, that is, to build a school!

Schools were not a new thing in the Ming Dynasty, with the high level of Guozijian, the low ones having village schools and private schools, and the elegant ones having all kinds of academies, all of which were places to teach students, and the knowledge taught was similar, all of which were based on Confucianism.

It is not that there are other things that are taught, such as law and arithmetic, and there are also places to teach, but there are few people who are willing to learn, and there are not many places to teach, but they are only opened in the official schools of various state capitals.

This idea was thought of by Xie Hong on the night of the incense on the red sleeves, but the reason goes back much further.

After the Ordnance Division began to operate, Xie Hong discovered that most of the craftsmen's craftsmanship was very exquisite, but few of them could explain the doorway, let alone form a theory. It's nothing just that you can't sum up the experience, but if you don't summarize and summarize, there will be no innovation.

In addition to smelting technology and gunpowder technology in the Ordnance Division, there are Dong Ping and Zeng Zheng respectively, and there is no need for Xie Hong to participate, and other technologies, from design to development and implementation, all have to be grasped by Xie Hong.

He is just a craftsman, not an all-knowing and all-powerful immortal, and most of the techniques of later generations are only superficial, and he has no way to promote technological progress on his own.

Therefore, Xie Hong had the idea of spreading some basic knowledge, and when he explained physics to the two girls that night, he finally confirmed his idea.

Zhengde's last sentence at the end of the feast was even more powerful, Zhengde's original intention was of course to set up an obstacle for the courtiers, so that as long as they couldn't break through Xie Hong, there would be no way to mention the matter of the feast, but when he said this, Xie Hong saw the opportunity to run a school.

Of course, Xie Hong knew that the scholars and doctors would not listen to his lectures, but with such a sentence as Zhengde, and the courtiers did not oppose it on the spot, then he could naturally climb up the pole and set up a school to give lectures. If the courtiers objected, he could also use this excuse to gag the other party's mouth.

In addition to promoting the knowledge of natural sciences, Xie Hong also wanted to grasp the cultural cultivation of the more than 3,000 children of Xuanfu. Knowledge can bring people's concept of right and wrong, although those teenagers are fanatical in their support for righteousness and morality, and they also sincerely admire themselves, but people will change, and a momentary passion alone cannot guarantee that it will last forever, and they must be allowed to have corresponding concepts.

Xie Hong doesn't plan to teach a group of talented people to come, but he just wants them to be literate and understand what it means to be loyal to the monarch and patriotism and defend their homeland, so that they can consolidate their loyalty and not be tempted by outsiders, traitors or something, which can be regarded as a rainy day.

Xie Hong's decision aroused great repercussions in the capital.

Scholars naturally still want to scold, a person who only shows off his talent and fame, dares to give lectures, it is really shameless. Although the courtiers have just planted a big heel and are not easy to get ahead, there are also a lot of folk scholars, these people have written articles and poems, and they are extremely ridiculous.

Compared with the uniform reaction of the scholars, the feelings of the people are much more complicated.

When Xie Hong promoted billiards, people flocked to it, but most of them reported the luck of luck, after all, being able to get close to the Son of Heaven by a game, that is, one or two people a year, in addition to ability, also requires luck. Fortunately, playing billiards is not too expensive, and it is full of fun, so everyone is not stingy to join in the fun.

When baseball comes out, there will be more people who are tempted, because there are so many places! The emperor has formed his own team, although it does not appear in every game, but at the home of Koshien, the emperor has really played a few games, and his pitching skills are called a great one, and the batting rate is even better.

It's just that baseball only recruits teenagers, but it makes many people have no way to serve, although everyone understands, there is no sigh in their hearts.

Today's school, although there is no aura such as the protégé of the Son of Heaven, it is not a game, and it is not fun to think about it.

Unlike the previous two, if you can really learn the way of Gewu in school, even if you can't do it like Xie Hong, you have a smart skill, and it's also good to go to the Ordnance Division to become a senior technician.

Zhenbao Zhai undertook a lot of outside projects, and the craftsmen inside also began to gradually contact with the outside world, about their treatment, living conditions, etc., it is no secret, many people know, and it is precisely because of knowing that it is more exciting.

An ordinary craftsman has a salary of five taels of silver a month, and if the workload is large, there are overtime pay and red envelopes!

Senior craftsmen, ranging from ten taels to dozens of taels a month, and other benefits are also rising.

But this is nothing, these two craftsmen are just craftsmen, and they don't have any understanding of the way of things, if they are proficient in the way of things, they are called engineers! Compared with the first two, the treatment is simply worlds apart, that is, the ministers of the court and the ministers of the court, there is no comparison, that is called a generous!

Benefit! This is the most fundamental thing, ordinary people may not understand any righteousness, and most of them are chaotic when they pass by, but once it is related to their own future and interests, they will become shrewd.

The way of Gewu defeated Hanlin, that just makes people talk about it more, and they will forget it after a while, but now, the way of Gewu can bring rich returns to people, how can this make people not moved?

Learn the theory of things well and travel all over the world; A skill is good, sell it to the emperor's house!

In the end, a slogan from Houdefang completely ignited people's enthusiasm.

The Ivy Academy, that is, the school undertaken by Jumbo Zhai, has become another desirable place in the capital after the Royal Park and Koshien, and countless people are looking forward to the day when the academy will open.
