Chapter 745: The Dispute between the North and the South
The reason why Li Qingzheng was able to eliminate the resistance to the introduction of the new disciplines of the lecture hall in the Jingshi Guozijian was that in addition to his high prestige in the scholar class, he also had the strong support of Emperor Xuande in this matter.
In Emperor Xuande's view, the officials from the Wutang are not only better at governing the local area than the officials from the Wenju, but also easier to control, so he wants to break the monopoly of the civil official group above the court on the government affairs of the Ming Dynasty, so he wants to gradually introduce the officials of the Wutang, so that the two sides can form a balance in the court.
In this way, Emperor Xuande once again violated the ancestral system, changed the situation of the Ming Dynasty academic monopoly on science since Hongwu and Yongle, and opened the curtain of a hundred schools of thought.
Emperor Xuande had such a change, in the final analysis, because he was influenced by Li Yuntian, which opened up his thinking and made his thinking undergo a heavy change.
In order to avoid intensifying the contradictions, Li Qingzheng only introduced the new discipline of Jiangwutang in the Jingshi Guozijian, including the Nanjing Guozijian, and the official schools in various places in the Ming Dynasty taught the same science as before.
Therefore, Nanjing Guozijian was not affected by the new discipline of Jiangwutang, and Li Yuntian never imagined that a competition between the two sides would be so bad, and it would even implicate Jiangwutang.
According to Li Yuntian's later understanding, Nanjing Guozijian and Jingshi Guozijian have formed a Liangzi since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and after Emperor Taizu captured Beijing City, which was still the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, he retained the Guozijian built by the Yuan Dynasty Dade in the city of Beijing in ten years.
Ming Taizu finally settled on Jinling, and Nanjing Guozijian became the Jingshi Guozijian of the Ming Dynasty, while the Guozijian of Beijing City could only rank second.
Due to the long history and strong cultural heritage of Nanjing Guozijian, and the number of people named on the gold list of Nanjing Guozijian in the imperial examinations of the Ming Dynasty far exceeded that of Beijing Guozijian, the prisoners of Nanjing Guozijian have always despised the prisoners of Beijing Guozijian, and the young and vigorous prisoners on both sides have not been less quarrelsome in public.
Originally, the prisoners of Nanjing Guozijian thought that they must be the ones who won the competition between the north and the south, so they came to the capital in high spirits.
It is a pity that the process of the competition was unexpected by the students of Nanjing Guozijian, and for the sake of fairness, they adopted the method of competition to ask each other's questions, which made them lose in the basic law, calligraphy and arithmetic of Guozijian, and they did not fight back at all.
Especially in arithmetic, they had never heard of the questions given by the students of the Jingshi Guozijian, and the inmates of the Jingshi Guozijian who thought they were difficult to solve were actually able to calculate the answers in an instant.
The inmates of Nanjing Guozijian are naturally the best at science, so they want to win the prisoners of Jingshi Guozijian in the matter of science.
However, even if the science of Jingshi Guozijian is not as good as that of Nanjing Guozijian, then it will not be any worse, and the science questions raised by Nanjing Guozijian are answered one by one, which makes the supervisors of Nanjing Guozijian establish a certain advantage in the problem of science, but unfortunately the advantage is not big.
However, to the surprise of the inmates of the Nanjing Guozijian, the students of the Guozijian in the capital actually combined science with governance, and involved agriculture, criminal law, and engineering in the fields of science, which made the inmates of the Nanjing Guozijian stunned and speechless, and did not know how to answer at all, after all, their strength lies in learning and governance.
As a result, an embarrassing situation arose, and the prisoners of the Nanjing Guozijian were unable to answer the questions of the prisoners of the Guozijian in the capital that integrated the science of governance, and their morale was greatly damaged.
Of course, an arrogant Nanjing Guozi Prison Supervisor naturally could not accept the defeat of the Jingcheng Guozi Prison Supervisor, so he pointed the finger at the science problem raised by the Beijing Guozi Prison Supervisor, saying that their problem was mixed with other miscellaneous studies, which was beyond the scope of science and was a blasphemy against science.
The prisoners of the Jingshi Guozijian are naturally not to be outdone, they have been pressed by the prisoners of the Nanjing Guozijian for so many years, and now they have finally ushered in a complete victory with their eyebrows raised, how can they let the prisoners of the Nanjing Guozijian mess around, so they argue with reason, saying that the prisoners of the Nanjing Guozijian have only learned the surface of science, and the real role of science is to help the world and the people, not to talk about it quickly.
The inmates of Nanjing Guozijian ridiculed the inmates of Jingshi Guozijian for picking up the teeth of the martial arts, and actually learning to talk about the reckless things of the martial arts, which is simply a sweep.
The prisoners of the Jingshi Guozijian were suddenly unhappy, and immediately ridiculed each other, the people of the Nanjing Guozijian couldn't even understand the new discipline of Wutang, they were reckless.
Both sides are strong-blooded, young and vigorous, so they quickly turned from quarrels to scolding and pushing, and the situation on the scene became hot.
This time, it can be said that the city gate fire affected the pond fish, and it was well involved in the dispute between the Jingshi Guozijian and the Nanjing Guozijian, and the good "Nanbeiyong controversy" had to be suspended, and the teachers on both sides tried their best to appease the excited prisoners.
Li Qingzheng felt that it was not a way to go on like this, and it was obvious that the grievances and entanglements between the Jingshi Guozi Supervisor and the Nanjing Guozi Supervisor were not so easy to resolve, so he thought of Li Yuntian and wanted Li Yuntian to mediate the contradictions between the two sides.
When Li Qingzheng came to visit, although Li Yuntian was busy with official business, he still agreed, after all, this involved the martial arts hall, and he should come forward to clarify something.
Therefore, Li Yuntian invited the inmates of Jingshi Guozijian and Nanjing Guozijian to visit the six colleges of Jiangwutang, and the strong academic atmosphere and novel new disciplines of the six colleges shocked those inmates of Nanjing Guozijian, and it was the first time that they came into contact with subjects other than the traditional Guozijian teaching.
In particular, the six colleges in the six colleges are full of magical realities in the eyes of the students of Nanjing Guozi, such as the Newtonian pendulum ball that verifies the law of conservation of momentum, the pulley block that can become extremely powerful using the principles of science, and the various changes achieved through chemical reactions, which opened his eyes, and he never imagined that there would be such a wonderful thing in history.
Compared with the inmates of Nanjing Guozijian, the inmates of Jingshi Guozijian appear to be calm and unhurried, since Li Qingzheng introduced the new discipline of Jiangwutang to Jingshi Guozijian, the six colleges of Jiangwutang are open to the inmates of Jingshi Guozijian, and the inmates are welcome to come to listen to the lectures.
Therefore, the supervisors of the Jingshi Guozijian have become accustomed to the six academies of the Wutang, and they are not like those inmates of the Nanjing Guozijian, and after arriving at the six colleges, it is like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, which is full of novelty about everything.
Towards the end of the visit, the inmates of the Jingshi Guozijian and the Nanjing Guozijian were invited to a courtyard with a large instrument with a stove, connecting rod and gear.
Naturally, the inmates of the Nanjing Guozijian didn't know what was going on in this strange-looking large instrument room in front of them, but some of the inmates of the Jingshi Guozijian immediately recognized its origin, and their expressions were quite excited.
"Zhenguo Gong has arrived!" Just as the prisoners were chatting with interest in front of the large apparatus, a loud voice came from the gate of the courtyard.
Hearing this, the prisoners looked at the gate of the courtyard with great interest, not to mention the prisoners of the Nanjing Guozi Prison, even the prisoners of the Jingshi Guozi Prison were very difficult to see Li Yuntian.
Today, Li Yuntian, who is both civil and military, has already become an idol in the minds of students all over the world, and students, including prison students, want to expand their territory and make a career like Li Yuntian, and now they are naturally happy and excited to see Li Yuntian.
Soon, under the gaze of the prisoners who stretched out their heads to look at the gate of the courtyard, Li Yuntian walked into the courtyard with a smile on his face, followed not by guards but by officials wearing martial arts uniforms, these officials were all students of the Jingshi Guozijian and the Nanjing Guozijian.
Although Nanjing Guozijian has no entanglement with Jiangwutang because it is too far away from Beijing, there are also prisoners from Nanjing Guozijian in Jiangwutang, the most famous of which is Zhang Heng, a talented son of Nanjing Guozijian who wanted to humiliate Li Yuntian.
Zhang Heng was the first batch of supervisors in Nanjing Guozijian to be admitted to the martial arts hall, and Li Yuntian went to Nanzhili to recruit for the new-style martial arts, and as a result, Zhang Heng and other seven Nanjing Guozijian supervisors were admitted to the top ten candidates in Nanzhili.
However, Zhang Heng's seven people did not want to enter the martial arts hall when they took the new martial arts examination, but because Li Yuntian admitted Jinshi according to the proportion of the north and south when he built the Taihe Palace, which made the northern scholars benefit a lot, while the southern scholars were hit hard, so Zhang Heng's seven newborn calves were not afraid of tigers, and they were ready to take advantage of the opportunity of Li Yuntian to personally come to Nanzhili to recruit for the examination, humiliating Li Yuntian and venting his anger to the southern scholars.
Zhang Heng's approach to the seven people was very simple, first they were admitted to the new-style martial arts held in Nanzhili with excellent results, and then they asked Li Yuntian in public to refuse to go to Beijing to lecture on martial arts.
However, Li Yuntian is the kind of person who is easy to fool, and with a tough attitude, he forced Zhang Heng and the seven to go to Beijing City to enter the lecture hall to study, Zhang Heng's ideal is to be admitted to the Jinshi Guangzong and to show their ancestors, and they don't want to join the army at all, so they plan to be eliminated in the lecture hall.
The result was beyond everyone's expectations, when Nanjing Guozijian came to Beijing to pick up Zhang Heng and the seven people back as planned, Zhang Heng and the seven people, who were moved by the new discipline of the martial arts hall, chose to stay.
Li Yuntian knew very well that the more young and frivolous and talented inmates like Zhang Heng Qiren were, the easier it was to accept new things, so when Zhang Hengqi stood out in Nanzhili's new martial arts, he was already destined to become a member of the martial arts hall.
"Gentlemen, can any of you sue my father, what is this?" Under the intently watched eyes of the inmates at the scene, Li Yuntian walked up to the large instrument, stretched out his hand and patted a large gear on the instrument, and then asked everyone present with a smile.
"Grandpa Guo, if the student guessed correctly, this is a clutch." After the prisoners glanced at each other, a Chinese-faced prisoner of the Jingshi Guozi Prison stepped forward and said loudly after arching his hand at Li Yuntian.
"It's really an actuator, do you know how it works?" Hearing this, Li Yuntian smiled and looked at the prisoner with a Chinese face.
"The students only know that it uses instruments such as pistons, connecting rods and gears to convert the potential energy of steam into kinetic energy." The Guozi-faced prisoner groaned for a moment, and then spoke.
"That's right, that's how it works." Li Yuntian nodded with a smile, and then said to the inmates at the scene, "I believe everyone has had such an experience, when boiling water, the boiling water vapor will lift the lid of the kettle, this phenomenon seems very common, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that there is a lot of mystery inside, if the power of the water vapor to lift the lid of the pot is used in other aspects, then there will be a new world." ”
As he spoke, Li Yuntian waved his hand to a burly instructor in the martial arts hall who was standing next to the large instrument, and the burly instructor lit the charcoal fire in the stove.
Li Yuntian stood there silently waiting for the water in the tank above the stove to boil, and he would show a wonderful phenomenon to the inmates on the scene, and then touch their minds.
