The next day, Zhu Youjian wrote a memorial to ask the imperial court to promote the pinyin literacy and pronunciation method used by the imperial court throughout the country.
After Yang Tingyun began to compile Chinese pinyin in accordance with Zhu Youxiao's order, Pinyin began to implement this method in grassroots organizations that the emperor could directly control.
Now students in Huangzhuang Social Studies, Weixue, Zongxue, Gongxue, and Royal Academy are able to use pinyin to read and speak the same phonetic language.
However, in the Imperial College, private academies and private schools, pinyin has not yet been promoted among students aiming to achieve career goals.
They still rely on teachers to teach them how to read and write.
These people still make up the majority.
After all, although the emperor has many palaces, many personal soldiers and guards, and the largest clan, it is naturally only a small part compared to the entire world.
Therefore, in order to be more conducive to the promotion of civilian education, to open up people's wisdom, and to completely change the Chinese civilization that has entered the period of decline, instead of waiting to completely lag behind the West, and then waiting to be beaten by Western aggressive forces before awakening, Zhu Youxiao is now in After cultivating a group of scholars who accepted the new education, they began to promote pinyin across the country, taking the education reform a step further.
The former emperor Zhu Youxiao only promoted it on a small scale within the area under his direct control.
Now he wants to promote it nationwide.
Although the promotion of pinyin only changed the empire's enlightenment education, it was still a beginning.
And this was not enough. Immediately afterwards, Zhu Youxiao hinted that Zhu Youjian sent this memorial to ask the court to promote pinyin and at the same time promote the new sentence reading method that had been carried out in the inner court.
Zhu Youxiao all approved it, and the Imperial Academy and the Hanlin Academy jointly formed a compilation group for the pinyin of characters and the pronunciation of sentences and sentences. They also launched the president and vice president to compile corresponding teaching materials to promote pinyin and sentence pronunciation.
However, even when Zhu Youxiao started to reform enlightenment education, there was still resistance.
Because there are many smart people in this world.
"I looked at the method of reading this Pinyin sentence in detail, and finally understood why the literacy rate of the children of hired workers in Tianjin is so high, and why some young workers have actually read some articles. Now that I think about it, they must have been influenced by this Pinyin sentence reading. The benefits of the Dharma will make it easier for these ignorant people to master knowledge and become smarter. If this continues, this knowledge will no longer be the exclusive property of our scholar-officials. Even our entire scholar-officials will be a mixed bag of good and bad, good and bad, and even more will appear indiscriminately. If this continues, our dignity as a scholar-bureaucrat will be damaged!"
Li Kangxian, a bachelor of Dongge and the minister of the academic department, put forward his own opinions on this to Wen Tiren, who was also promoted to a bachelor.
Wen Tiren said: "However, this is conducive to opening up the people's wisdom, facilitating communication, and even making it easier to govern, so as to make the country long-term and stable. For example, in the past, when state and county officials conveyed government orders, they had to first let Xu, who was familiar with the local pronunciation and customs and literate in Chinese characters, Officials go to convey it to the people, and this method of reading Pinyin sentences can make it easier for the people to directly grasp the method of recognizing characters. In this way, the state and county officials can directly post a notice to let the people know the government's affairs. Wouldn't it avoid the need for officials to just Can we rely on subordinate officials to convey government orders to the people?"
Then, Wen Tiren added: "In my humble opinion, His Highness the King's proposal is not enough. Official articles often tend to use inscriptions and contrasts, which makes the meaning of the article obscure and difficult for ordinary people to understand even the words they are afraid of knowing. But This is not the original intention of the imperial court, nor should it be the original intention of the writer. Therefore, we should not only promote pinyin and sentence reading, but also change the literary style of the world, and promote vernacular writing throughout the world to make writing easy to understand and facilitate communication."
"Absurd! Mr. Wen Ge said this, I forgive Li for not agreeing! The pinyin and sentence reading are already destroying the rule that reading is a top-notch thing. Why should we promote the vernacular? Isn't this self-degradation and damaging to officialdom? ! Besides, the people can follow it but cannot understand it. This is the saying of the sage! How can you change the style of writing in order to let people know it? This is undoubtedly to make the program upside down and the rituals and music to collapse!"
Li Kang stood up excitedly and replied angrily.
Although Wen Tiren loved cultivating party members and was scolded as a traitor in history, he was actually relatively clean as an official and was not a member of the Donglin Party. Therefore, up to now, he is still standing in the court, and through this time, a large number of peace-promoting ministers have been The opportunity to be relegated has entered the center of power of the empire.
The reason why Wen Tiren is an honest official is naturally because he has greater power ambitions and wants to do things.
However, historically he followed Chongzhen, so he had no chance to do anything.
But in this life, after Wen Tiren watched the experiences of the first two chief assistants, Fang Congzhe and Yuan Keli, he had already determined that the current emperor was a wise ruler who did not trust others and did not trust others, and dared to do things and take responsibility. Therefore, he also Current educational reforms show different attitudes.
Once he cares more about power and achievements that benefit the country, he will voluntarily give up the interests of his own class of scholar-bureaucrats.
Just like Zhang Conghui took the initiative to seek refuge with Emperor Jiajing and betrayed the entire civil servant group in order to gain power.
Wen Tiren therefore smiled and replied: "The people can make it, follow it, not make it, know it. This is the meaning of the sage! Mr. Ge obviously misunderstood the meaning of the sage because he had not implemented the method of sentence reading before. It can be seen that the method of sentence reading The importance of promotion, otherwise, more and more people will misunderstand the meaning of the saint, and it will also be easy for evil villains to misinterpret the meaning of the saint."
"That's nonsense! I'm ashamed to be with you!"
Li Kangxian walked away because of this.
Wen Tiren still shouted calmly: "Even if Mr. Ge is ashamed to be in the company of servants, Mr. Ge is also the minister of the academic department. Please carry out the holy orders with all your heart, so that the pinyin sentence reading can be promoted throughout the world as soon as possible!"
…
"His Royal Highness King Xin, many courtiers are quite dissatisfied with your petition to promote the pinyin and sentence reading methods. They say that you have forgotten your ancestors and used Western letters with my Chinese characters. Your purpose is to be humble. I would like to ask, Is that what they said is correct?”
In history, Zhu Yihai, a clan member who was later named King of Lu, and a group of clan members asked Zhu Youjian about this.
Zhu Youjian replied with a smile: "Brother Huang said, they are trying to make excuses. Our great ancestors were born in common people and were not the creators of writing. How can we use pinyin and sentence reading to count the classics and forget our ancestors? As for being willing to be humble, our Zhu family is originally How can you be willing to be humble if you come from a common people's family? Besides, our late emperor and your fathers and ancestors all married the daughters of common people. According to what they say, then our late emperor and fathers are also willing to be humble?"
"I see, then they are too abominable!"
Zhu Yihai couldn't help but get angry.
"that is!"
Other clan members also replied.
Zhu Youjian continued: "Anyway, our clan has to support this. There is no other reason. Doing this will make more and more scholars in the world, and scholars must respect our Zhu family and become superior people, so , when there are more scholars, there will be more and more scholars who want to rely on our Zhu family. In this way, some of them will make more concessions in order to further gain more favor from our Zhu family royal family, and they will become more If you despise yourself, if this continues, more scholars will respect our Zhu family in the future, and our Zhu family royal family will become more stable."
"His Royal Highness Xin Wang is right. Once there are too many scholars, the scholars will lose their value. The method of reading Pinyin sentences must be quickly promoted!"
Zhu Yousong also echoed.
