The ideological debate between Su Jing and Song Lian did not last long.
After all, this kind of thing cannot be changed in a few words.
That is to say, the emperor of Ming Dynasty was Zhu Yuanzhang, so Su Jing dared to say so much or the reason.
A scholar like Song Lian is basically unable to resist.
"Okay, Master Song, try again."
Su Jing adjusted the power of the lens again and handed the lens to Song Lian.
As soon as Song Lian put the lens in front of his eyes, a look of surprise appeared on his face: "I can see! Uncle Ren Yuan, I can really see clearly!"
Su Jing breathed a sigh of relief. After adjusting for a long time, she finally settled the lens matter.
"Okay, then Master Song, please wait for a moment while I polish the other lens and add the frame to the glasses."
Su Jing said lightly.
Song Lian immediately said: "Uncle Ren Yuan, take your time, I am not in a hurry."
He was still immersed in the shock of seeing the glasses. Even though he had heard Liu Bowen talk about it, Zhu Biao also explained the principle in detail.
But no matter how much you listen to it, what can be more shocking than your own personal experience?
Su Jing did not reply to Song Lian's words and had already started polishing the second lens seriously.
This kind of thing that requires concentration cannot be distracted.
"Master Song, students think that reading is to understand the truth, and understanding the truth is not the only way to understand the truth. Master Su said that everything in the world has a reason, and the meaning of science is to discover and summarize, and apply these principles to our lives. In life.”
Zhu Biao said to Song Lian.
He had been listening to the debate between Su Jing and Song Lian about their studies, and naturally he had his own opinions, but because Su Jing and Song Lian were both his teachers, he had never intervened.
Now that he had the chance to speak, he naturally expressed his views immediately.
Song Lian turned to look at the prince Zhu Biao and replied: "Maybe Ren Yuanbo is right, but for me, science is invisible after all. The words of sages and the theories of sages are the most reasonable."
Song Lian did not refute Zhu Biao's words, but he still expressed his attitude.
Zhu Biao was helpless, he couldn't understand.
It was obvious to him that Su Jing had explained science and reading quite clearly. Why couldn't Song Lian accept it?
Are these things so difficult to accept?
Song Lian is not an uncivilized commoner. He is a highly educated bachelor. He shouldn't be!
"Niu Yi, there is no need to say so much. There is something you may not have heard. Let me tell you now."
Su Jing's words sounded: "All things invented before I was born are taken for granted; all things invented between the ages of 15 and 35 are destined to change the world; all inventions after I am 35 years old are destined to change the world. It’s anti-human.”
Zhu Biao was stunned for a moment, and then began to chew on what Su Jing said.
Interesting!
Although it sounds very simple, if you think about it carefully, it contains considerable philosophy.
Song Lian was also thinking seriously about Su Jing's words. Even though he was a Confucian scholar with a very high level of literature, Song Lian was also not low in philosophical attainments.
Song Lian had in-depth research on the thoughts of Buddhism and Taoism.
Therefore, as soon as Su Jing finished speaking this sentence, he immediately understood its meaning.
People of different ages have different acceptance levels of change.
In other words, human nature is a process of gradual solidification. The older you are, the acceptance of new things will greatly decrease.
"Thank you, Master Su, for clearing up the confusion. The student understands."
Zhu Biao cupped his hands towards Su Jing, with a look of relief on his face.
Su Jing's words made him understand why Song Lian couldn't understand him.
Song Lian looked at Su Jing and said, "Uncle Renyuan, do you think it's time for me to be unable to accept new things?"
Su Jing smiled and said: "Master Song, when you ask this question, you actually have the answer."
Whether Song Lian can accept new things and new ideas is really obvious.
When Su Jing said this, Song Lian immediately fell silent.
He may be stubborn, but he is not a stupid, paranoid person, nor is he someone who doesn't know how to think.
Ever since Zhu Yuanzhang brought him to Niu Mansion, before he even met Su Jing, Song Lian had already begun to feel conflicted in his heart after just learning about vocational education from Zhu Yuanzhang.
Everything has already been preconceived.
As long as it goes against the traditional ideas he accepts, it is incorrect and cannot be accepted.
When he was young and just started studying, he had an attitude of acceptance and acceptance of any new ideas and things.
Song Lian has already realized the changes.
"What Uncle Ren Yuan said made me enlightened, but I am stuck in my own ways."
Song Lian looked at Su Jing and thanked her seriously.
Su Jing smiled and said: "Master Song, there is a saying that it is difficult to know but easy to do. The truth I have learned is just a superficial theory, but it is very difficult to really do it. Master Song does not have to give birth to a child. What other thoughts do you have? After all, most people are like this. Even if I am a few decades from now, I may not be any better than you, Mr. Song."
Everyone knows the truth, but who can do it?
Su Jing didn't think that she was a saint, and many things in this world happened like this.
However, after hearing this, Song Lian looked at Su Jing with even more reverence.
"I want to apologize to Mr. Su. It was because I looked down on Mr. Su and thought that Mr. Su was just a young man with some whims. Now it seems that I am just a frog in the well."
Song Lian made another serious bow to Su Jing.
Underestimating a young person is a mistake that many people make.
Even though Su Jing has gained a lot of fame, it is inevitable that you will have some superficial impressions when you meet her for the first time.
Song Lian realized that he was still too contemptuous of Su Jing, which was really a big mistake.
This can be seen from the fact that he always calls Su Jing Ren Yuanbo. This is the count given to Su Jing by Zhu Yuanzhang. It is also Song Lian who believes that Su Jing only achieved her current status because of Zhu Yuanzhang's love.
But now, he has thrown away this idea, so his name for Su Jing has become Mr. Su.
Su Jing didn't answer and said directly to Zhu Biao on the side: "Niu Yi, find a piece of wood. It doesn't need to be too big. I'll use it to make a frame for the mirror."
"Yes, Master Su."
Zhu Biao nodded, then turned around and went to look for the board.
"Mr. Song, I'll get the glasses ready soon. That's enough gossip. Let's get down to business."
Su Jing looked at Song Lian with a smile.
He felt that chatting with Song Lian was quite boring. Song Lian was too reserved, so he made the conversation casual and seemed disrespectful.
Let’s talk formally, it’s too tiring.
It's easiest to be direct and tell things.
"Okay, Mr. Su, let's talk about how to establish and implement this imperial examination education system."
Song Lian nodded and immediately entered into working mode.
In the following days, Song Lian traveled between Hanlin Academy and Niu Mansion every day.
That's right, Song Lian, the editor of "Yuan History", still has to preside over it, and he also has to participate in how to improve the imperial examination here.
This is the characteristic of Lao Zhu's employment of people. As long as they can't be used, they will be used to death.
Even at Song Lian's age, he still did not receive any preferential treatment from Zhu Yuanzhang.
Song Lian's recent behavior has also been noticed by officials above the court.
Especially Yang Xian.
Since that day when he asked about Su Jing and was reprimanded by Zhu Yuanzhang, Yang Xian became more and more concerned about Su Jing.
Outside the Hanlin Academy.
Yang Xian came slowly and greeted several Hanlin bachelors one by one.
After all, he is an official of the Zhongshu Provincial Department. Yang Xian is quite familiar to most officials.
"Song Chengzhi, are you bothering me?"
As soon as Yang Xian saw Song Lian, he immediately said with a smile.
In terms of official rank, Yang Xian was higher than Song Lian at the moment, but with Yang Xian's attitude, it seemed at first glance that he was the lower official.
This is Yang Xian. Even though he has an extremely strong desire in his heart at this moment, he can still make no trace of it in his performance.
In a sense, Yang Xian and Hu Weiyong are very similar people.
"Master Yang, why are you here? Does your Majesty have any orders?"
Song Lian asked Yang Xian.
Basically all officials know that Yang Xian is deeply trusted by Zhu Yuanzhang. Although it is not comparable to the favor received by Su Jing, it is much higher than others.
"No, no, Song Chengzhi, I just came here to see you, and it has nothing to do with His Majesty."
Yang Xian said immediately.
Yang Xian still wouldn't do it under the banner of Zhu Yuanzhang.
Song Lian asked in confusion: "Then why did Mr. Yang come to me?"
An important minister like Yang Xian would not come to Hanlin Academy to hang out.
Yang Xian paused, looked around and asked, "Song Chengzhi, have you been seeing Uncle Ren Yuan often recently?"
Although Zhu Yuanzhang asked Yang Xian not to inquire about Su Jing, Yang Xianyang was very capable of subverting the truth and never gave up asking about Su Jing.
However, there are very few things that can be found out.
Originally he didn't plan to ask Song Lian, but when he thought of Zhu Yuanzhang's reprimand that day, Yang Xian thought that Su Jing was his biggest obstacle at the moment.
That's right, Yang Xian has given up targeting Li Shanchang since Li Shanchang became ill.
In other words, the main target has been temporarily shifted to Su Jing.
"I wonder why Mr. Yang is asking about this?"
Song Lian did not answer, but asked instead.
Even though Song Lian looks like an old scholar, he has been able to teach Zhu Biao under Lao Zhu for many years. It is impossible for him to have no political IQ at all.
Su Jing is now Zhu Yuanzhang's most trusted person, and Song Lian will not reveal any information if nothing happens.
After all, Zhu Yuanzhang did not take the initiative to reveal the identity of the Emperor of Heaven when he took him to see Su Jing.
Song Lian was clear about this matter, not to mention that Song Lian was still wearing glasses made by Su Jing.
Yang Xian had already expected Song Lian's doubts.
He immediately said: "Song Chengzhi, it's like this. You also know that almost more than a month has passed since Uncle Renyuan was knighted, and he still hasn't seen anyone. His Majesty's order to knight him is still... It has to be promulgated by the Ministry of Education, and the process still has to go through.”
Yang Xian was well prepared and moved Zhongshu Province directly.
The so-called Zhongshu Province, based on Su Jing's previous life, is probably the GW Academy, which is responsible for drafting and issuing the emperor's edicts.
In other words, in theory, Zhu Yuanzhang's various edicts must be issued from the Central Publishing House before they can be considered officially effective.
Of course, this is a theory. In fact, what Lao Zhu said directly is much more effective than Zhongshu Sheng.
Yang Xian just made an excuse here.
The Zhongshu Province would naturally promulgate the knighthood order announced by Zhu Yuanzhang in the early dynasty, but this was an imperial edict for knighthood, and the person to whom it was issued was Su Jing.
Su Jing was kept hidden by Zhu Yuanzhang. Not to mention the officials of Zhongshu Province, only a few civil and military officials saw Su Jing.
The edict of knighthood awarded to Su Jing has been backlogged in Zhongshu Province.
This reason is very politically correct.
Even if Lao Zhu found out later, Yang Xian could easily explain it.
"I see, but Mr. Yang should not come to me about this matter, but should go to His Majesty."
Unfortunately, Song Lian's answer was not what Yang Xian wanted at all.
He didn't mention Su Jing at all and sent Yang Xian directly to find Lao Zhu.
Just kidding, Song Lian has now completely understood Su Jing's position in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, and Yang Xian's clichés are of no use to him at all.
Yang Xian's face was slightly tinged, but he still maintained a smile and said: "Since it is not convenient for Song Chengzhi to say it, I will not force it. Your Majesty is also very concerned about your work, Mr. Song. If Mr. Song continues to work hard, I will not disturb you. .”
After saying that, without waiting for Song Lian's reply, Yang Xian turned around and left.
Song Lian looked at Yang Xian's leaving figure, and his mind moved slightly. Yang Xian asked about Su Jing, and it felt strange.
At this moment, Yang Xian, who was leaving the Hanlin Academy, his face completely darkened.
These days, he made many inquiries and found out that Su Jing first went to Baoyuan Bureau for a period of time, and then went to the Agricultural College.
As for what he did, who he met, and what instructions he received from Zhu Yuanzhang, he has no idea.
This feeling made Yang Xian uncomfortable.
Because he was so trusted by Zhu Yuanzhang back then, no one else knew what he did except him and Zhu Yuanzhang.
Therefore, at this moment, Yang Xian believed that Su Jing was a huge threat to his continued climb.
How should I inquire about Su Jing?
This matter became a big problem in Yang Xian's mind.
As for Su Jing at this moment, based on her memory of compulsory education in her previous life, she began to continuously contribute to the reform of the imperial examination system.
The imperial examination must be revised, but Su Jing felt that it was not an easy task from beginning to end as to how to achieve her goals.
Even though Lao Zhu, who has been fooled by the education system of his previous life, is almost lame, times are different, development is different, concepts and thoughts are different, and copying it will definitely not work.
It’s difficult!
Although Song Lian, an old scholar, presided over the reform of the imperial examination, it was still difficult to change his ideology. Many things just went back to the old way.
At this moment, in Fengxian Hall, Lao Zhu was already a little upset by the backlog of memorials.
What Wang Guangyang did has not improved at all.
