Chapter 809: The Beginning of the Renaissance
"Son of Heaven Academy!"
In the imperial study, Xiao Ming personally wrote the plaque, and he implemented it after returning from Qingzhou University. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Just as he did before, he is now also trying to inspire students to be passionate about science.
Putting away the pen, Xiao Ming said to Qian Dafu: "You send this plaque to Qingzhou University, and call Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing over, it's time to get rid of the old evils." ”
Qian Dafu vaguely guessed what Xiao Ming was going to do, the science and technology of the Great Chongqing Kingdom is now only staying in Qingzhou, and the outside of the Great Chongqing Kingdom is still controlled by feudal ignorance, if this ignorance is not completely eliminated, the speed of popularization of science in the Great Chongqing Kingdom will be restricted.
Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing devoted themselves to studying astronomy at Qingzhou University, and now they have completely torn apart the veil of mystery in the starry sky.
Qian Dafu left, and half an hour later, he took Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing to the imperial study.
Seeing the two, Xiao Ming said directly: "How are you preparing?" ”
Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing have been looking forward to this day, and the two said in unison: "We are ready, and we can popularize astronomy at any time." ”
Xiao Ming's expression was strange, and he said, "I will secretly send people to protect you from being beaten to death." ”
Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing looked calm when they heard this, and he said: "The grass people are preaching the truth, how can they be afraid of life and death. ”
"Okay." Xiao Ming praised, "I will hand over the renaissance of the Great Yu Kingdom to you, but you don't have to worry, I will always support you." ”
Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing bowed down and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
After saying this, Yan Zhengyi handed over a book to Xiao Ming, and he said: "Your Majesty, this is what the two of us have learned after studying astronomy, just publish the content in Qingzhou Daily." ”
Xiao Ming took the book, the cover of the book was written with the words "Theory of Celestial Bodies", he opened the book, and it recorded in detail the data on the movement of celestial bodies observed by the two and the opinions of the two.
If this "Treatise on Celestial Bodies" were published in the newspapers, the two of them would become the targets of Confucianism.
And what Xiao Ming needs is this effect, his purpose is to build the two of them into truth fighters, so as to completely tear apart the system of Confucianism.
At that time, the two of them charged in front, and he supported them in the back, and the renaissance of the Great Yu Kingdom was no longer a problem.
"I'll give it to the newspaper." Xiao Ming put the book away.
"Your Majesty." The two of them bowed, turned and walked out of the imperial study.
Seeing the two leave, Xiao Ming looked contemplative, in fact, the Renaissance movement is not just an astronomical exposure of ignorance.
In fact, it was a subversion of the existing cultural system by a new cultural system, such as the fourteenth century in Europe, when Europe was dominated by Catholic culture.
Socio-cultural is centered on Catholic theology.
Later, with the development of the productive forces, the new bourgeoisie was dissatisfied with the control of the church over the spiritual world, so a group of people subverted the church culture by reviving the ancient Greek and Roman culture.
This subversion culminated in the sixteenth century, when a separate cultural system was formed, the core of which was humanism.
Its core emphasizes that it is human-centered rather than God-centered, affirms the value and dignity of human beings, advocates the purpose of life is to pursue happiness in real life, advocates individuality, opposes ignorant and superstitious theological ideas, and believes that human beings are the creators and masters of real life.
Xiao Ming also needs Confucianism to step down from the altar and become secular.
However, now that he is using Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing as weapons to destroy the old cultural system of the Great Chongqing Kingdom, a new cultural system is needed to replace the old one.
The reason why he took so long for the two to prepare for the Renaissance was that he had been struggling with the issue of this new cultural system.
In contrast to the humanism of the West, which focuses on freedom, equality, and self-worth, his country has been replaced by a party culture after the destruction of the old cultural system, which is strictly the ruling party's governing philosophy.
Under the party culture, the traditional cultural system still exists, and the combination of the two is the characteristic of his time.
Walking out of the imperial study, Xiao Ming looked at the sunset that was gradually sinking in the west.
After Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing's actions, he also took the opportunity to establish the cultural system or core values of the Great Chongqing Kingdom.
After thinking about it for a while, he believes that the traditional culture of Dayu is enough to support the cultural system of the society, but some drawbacks need to be completely eliminated.
His ultimate goal was to purify Confucianism like the Western Reformation, to culturally recognize science, oppose ignorance, and advocate the idea of equality for all.
In this way, the cultural system of the Great Chongqing Kingdom will be rebuilt, and every generation of kings in history has done so.
After he flipped through the materials, he found that in history, Confucianism has experienced the Simeng school, the Song and Ming schools, the Xinxue, the Qi school, the modern literature school, the Ram School, the Wei Theology, the ancient literature school and exegesis, and in general, the Confucian culture of each dynasty is different, which shows that the Confucian culture has been developing and changing.
Confucianism sometimes makes corresponding changes in order to welcome the king, in other words, Confucianism is still very aware of current affairs.
Every time there is a change of dynasty, the Kong family will always vote for a new master in time, and Xiao Ming has been waiting for the Kong family to send someone over, but there is still no news.
Although he knew that the Kong family had been observing the situation, it was time to make a choice, if he didn't know the current affairs, he could only do it.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ming sneered twice, and he called Qian Dafu to send Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing's celestial theory to the newspaper office, so that the newspaper could publish it tomorrow.
He didn't believe that the Confucian family could still sit still, and since he was the emperor, he had to reformulate the rules for the Great Yu Kingdom.
After taking over the celestial theory, Qian Dafu immediately went to the newspaper office.
At this time, Fan Zeng hadn't gone back yet, and Fan Zeng was stunned for a while after seeing the celestial theory sent by Qian Dafu.
After a long silence, he said: "This is really unheard of, and if it is published, it will inevitably cause an uproar." ”
"You just have to follow the emperor's orders, and the emperor will naturally bear the burden if something happens." Qian Dafu frowned, he knew that this Fan Zeng was an old Confucian student, and some ideas were deep-rooted, so he couldn't help but aggravate his tone.
Fan Zeng's forehead was sweating slightly, he nodded and said, "Yes, Xiaguan will let people go to print." ”
Nodding with satisfaction, Qian Dafu turned around and left, he had supported Xiao Ming from beginning to end, it was with Xiao Ming that he saw the Great Chongqing Kingdom becoming strong, although this celestial theory is a bit shocking, but if it can't cause waves, how can it make the Great Chongqing Kingdom have earth-shaking changes?
