I! Jar merchant, Qin Shihuang prescribes the elixir of longevity at the beginning

The title, content, and format of the eight strands of writing are too restrictive.

The candidates just perfunctory according to the literal meaning of the question, thus stifling the author's creativity.

As a result, the content of the Bagu text is empty, focusing on form, and becoming a play on words.

In order to obtain meritorious names, the readers specialized in studying and analyzing the eight-strand text, but the restrictions of the eight-strand text were too strict, and the topics were limited to scriptures, which restrained the readers' thoughts, and Cheng Zhu Yili's learning gradually became rigid under the guidance of the imperial examination system.

Gu Yanwuyan: "The harm of the eight shares is equivalent to burning books, and the corruption of talents is even greater than the suburbs of Xianyang, but there are more than 460 people." "

Readers" "turned a deaf ear to things outside the window and read only the books of the sages", devoted

their whole lives to studying the writing of the eight strands of literature,

and lacked understanding of the actual political and social situation.

Some readers also lacked an understanding of human affairs and world affairs, and once they became officials, they lacked sufficient knowledge to deal with civil affairs, so they had to appoint staff masters and lower-level officials to make decisions, which made the rule of officials increasingly corrupt and politics difficult to get on track.

"It's not that exaggerated, is it?"

"Why not?"

Li Xiaohan said lightly.

If Zhu Yuanzhang's concept is not changed, it is estimated that he will go further and further down the wrong road.

According to the method of taking the eight strands, the chance of wanting to give birth to talents will become lower and lower, and the life of the Daming Empire will become more and more short.

I finally got an 'invitation letter from ten thousand worlds'.

And met a fairly good monarch, Li Xiaohan didn't want to see him push the Daming Empire into the abyss.

So.

It must be corrected in time!

"It's just a scientific research system, so it shouldn't affect the interests of the country, right?"

It's clear.

It's just Zhu Yuanzhang, who was born with mud legs.

I didn't see the drawbacks of 'Eight Shares at all', and even felt that this decision was not bad.

"Let's be honest with you." Li Xiaohan's golden eyes looked at the Daming Emperor in front of him and said, "Baguwen can only select officials who obey the imperial power, which has a good effect on strengthening the monarch's power.

"Isn't that bad? All the officials under my command will obey my orders, and my Daming will be more stable.

"Of course it's not good, after a long time, the eight strands of the scholar will imprison the thinking of the students, and seriously corrupt the study style, so that the students in the world will completely lose their creativity, and it will be impossible to select talented officials."

Only at the behest of the emperor.

But without any talent, what is the difference between this and a bunch of doglegs.

It is no wonder that the last Jiangshan of Daming will fall to that extent, and the 'eight-stock extraction' plan set by Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang is a very important factor.

"This world is very big."

"Not only the Daming Empire, but also the surrounding countries, there are countless countries in the Far West."

"If you don't work hard to develop national strength, after two or three hundred years, they launched the first industrial revolution, and various forces began to advance by leaps and bounds, constantly catching up with the Daming Empire."

"The power of Western countries is constantly increasing, and the power of the Daming Empire is constantly weakening."

"One trade-off."

"The Daming Empire even has only been beaten."

"Science

and technology is the primary productive force."

And the party that is backward in science and technology is only beaten.

This.

Whether it is modern or ancient, it is very obvious.

It's like the gap between ancient bronze weapons and steel weapons; Or the gap between modern rifles and tanks.

In the past dynasties, the speed of scientific and technological development of Chinese civilization was far better than that of Western countries.

But.

Since the Ming and Qing dynasties.

The power of Western countries has begun to grow, but they are still standing still, and even showing signs of regression, which has led to the future situation of oppression.

If the Ming Empire could not quickly enter the first industrial revolution.

The future will definitely fall into a backward and beaten situation!

“．」 The West is just a barbarian, what dares to invade my Daming?

"Don't underestimate any opponent, they are not opponents of the Daming Empire now, but they are still improving." Li Xiaohan said in a deep voice, "If you wipe out the driving force for the development of the Daming Empire in order to consolidate the imperial power, it is also a matter of time before it is surpassed.

"This..." Zhu

Yuanzhang was stunned.

Right now, there are only two options before him.

Either in order to consolidate their own rule, and then use the 'eight strands to take the shi' to erase the talents created by the Daming students.

Either in order to maintain the leading position of the Daming Empire, encourage Daming students to be creative, allow their free speech and development, and abandon their own 'eight strands'.

These two thoughts.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, it was constantly circling.

It was related to the future of the Daming Empire, and he had to be cautious.

After a long time.

Zhu Yuanzhang exhaled slowly, as if he had made some kind of decision, and his eyes were full of firmness.

"Although I, Zhu Yuanzhang, want to consolidate Jiangshan, I will never allow barbarians to ride on our heads to act as a blessing!"

"Since the immortals feel that the eight-strand is not conducive to the development of the country, then I will change it!"

"Yet."
