Chapter 489 Apocalypse opens a new chapter

"The next thing we need to focus on is power generation. Since magnetic energy generates electricity, why don't you think of ways to generate electricity and keep the electricity at a high voltage? If you want to lay wires and telegrams in the future, you need a higher voltage, and it is not enough to rely on batteries."

Zhu Youjian poured a basin of cold water on the excited Yuan Keli and others' heads.

Yuan Keli waited nodded.

Influenced by the emperor, these regent ministers also taught themselves some of the fashionable natural science theoretical knowledge.

Know the concepts of voltage, electromagnetics, etc.

Of course, they didn't know what to do, and they had to stand behind Zhu Youxiao and others.

From Xu Guangqi to Bi Maokang to Song Yingxing, Li Zhizao, Li Tianwen and other scholars of the Ming Dynasty who liked natural sciences, have built a relatively systematic theoretical framework for natural sciences through various experimental research and hypothesis arguments.

Many of them are even theories that have not appeared in other countries in the world.

However, the Ming Dynasty had not yet established a science and technology university with a focus on natural science research and education.

Even though the Ming Academy of Sciences now has a relatively complete natural science theories, it has a theoretical framework in mathematics, physics, chemistry and even biology.

It is just because the current education in the Ming Dynasty was mainly Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism education. Most of the people who read books were to master the eight-legged essays and get the most famous.

Not to mention studying natural sciences, even if you are not very enthusiastic about your own research on your own Neo-Confucianism.

Therefore, the talent in the natural sciences of the Ming Dynasty was still insufficient.

It still depends entirely on some scholars and officials who are interested in this area to support the natural science research of the entire empire.

This led to the fact that the Ming Dynasty now lacked enough talents to study natural sciences, so naturally there was no way to talk about talents engaged in natural science education.

However, Zhu Youjiao has begun to take advantage of the current education system in the Ming Dynasty, which will lead to a nationwide natural science education.

There is naturally resistance.

But Zhu Youxiao believed that this was the general trend and no one could stop it.

An empire that has begun industrialization needs to abandon education that respects Confucianism alone.

Instead of waiting to be abandoned by Confucianism.

Because history has proved that from the beginning of the Confucian scholar-officials starting to engage in industry, new education will be irreversibly needed.

"The emperor has a profound intention, and is intended to replace the current Confucius family education, so that our Confucianism cannot be respected solely, and that our scholars and officials will die from then on, and that the common people will be uncontrollable from now on. Now the implementation of pinyin and sentence pronunciation is the beginning."

Li Biao, Minister of Rites, also started to discuss with Li Kang, Minister of the School because of Zhu Youxiao's actions in education.

Li Kangxian said: "It is difficult to violate the sage order, but it is not so easy to promote it. For example, today we literati and genius are responsible for teaching and educating people, and those who are active in studying are also our gentry children. Our superiors have policies and countermeasures. Although Your Majesty's order has been issued, it does not mean that the inferior private schools, society, and academies will follow it. At that time, the literary and imperial examinations will be conducted, which will hold the pain of the gentry all over the world. If you want to achieve fame, you need to practice martial arts and practice riding and shooting. This really means turning the country of etiquette into a country of good martial arts."

"Yes, those who are warlike will die! A warrior is a weapon! But if I insist on doing this today, I can do nothing!"

Li Biao sighed.

"Although I can't help but impose the corresponding national policies to favor the king and father. The school has issued the junior college to promote the pinyin and sentence pronunciation, but I will not forcefully interfere with what the people below do. I just need to wait a hundred years later, and the throne will change, and these improper government orders will be in name only."

Li Kang continued.

"How is the method of pinyin and sentence reading implemented?"

Zhu Youxiao asked Liu Hongxun, the Minister of Political Affairs Hall in charge of the academic department.

Liu Hongxun replied: "The results are not very significant at present. Although the enlightenment textbooks in this area have been compiled and issued by various governors and ministers and academic yamen, according to my personal investigation, even some academies in the capital still use the previous method of enlightenment, and do not teach the methods of reading sentences and pinyin for children."

"This is the result of the lack of active implementation by officials in charge of academic affairs. Of course, the scholars below did not actively implement it. They used to make decisions for the people at all times, but when they really wanted to open up the wisdom of the people and carry out education that would make the people more likely to gain wisdom without only learning for the elite, they were so squeamish. It seems that relying on the reform of the scholar-officials alone is not enough, and they can only do some repairs."

Zhu Youxiao said a few words and pondered.

Then, Zhu Youxiao said: "Look for an excuse to get rid of Li Kangxian's position as the Minister of the School, and let His Highness Zhu Youjian, the left deputy censor, serve as the Minister of the School, serve as the Minister of the School. Such things that the gentry did not want to do must be done by the children of the royal family."

"yes!"

Yuan Keli, Bi Ziyan, and Liu Hongxun immediately replied.

So, King Xin Zhu Youjian was promoted to the Minister of the School.

This is also the fact that the Ming Dynasty has once again broken the rules, and the royal family can actually become the Shangshu.

Even Yuan Keli, Bi Ziyan, and Liu Hongxun, the three civil officials with the highest status in the empire, couldn't help but discuss it privately.

"The royal family participated in politics, military officials were in charge of civil affairs, and the phenomenon that some civil officials were in charge of military affairs since Tumu Fort, the court would become more and more lively in the future."

Bi Ziyan couldn't help but laugh and said.

"It's not just lively. No one except the emperor, because there are more than one pair of eyes staring at you. However, what I am worried about is that if the princes also participate in politics in the future, they will probably be bound to kill each other with brothers."

Yuan Keli said this at this time.

After saying that, Yuan Keli became dizzy and seemed to be about to fall backwards.

Seeing this, Liu Hongxun hurriedly supported him: "Yuanfu, are you okay?"

Yuan Keli smiled and waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'm old and my health is not as good as before."

"It's time to find an imperial physician."

"It's useless to see."

Yuan Keli suddenly fell down the stairs as he said this.

Liu Hongxun couldn't help but shout: "Yuan Fu!"

Bi Ziyan also shouted: "Yuan Fu!"

So much so that Zhu Youxiao, who was still in the hall, heard it and couldn't help but run out in the sound and asked the guards outside the hall: "What happened?"

"Yuan Fu fell on the steps."

The guard replied.

Zhu Youxiao was shocked when he heard this. He remembered that Yuan Keli had probably not been there at this time in history, but he did not expect it to be so sudden.

For a moment, Zhu Youxiao ran towards Yuan Keli and shouted: "Aiqing Yuan!"

Yuan Keli seemed to have been awakened now, and he couldn't help but open his eyes, staggeringly, and was about to stand up, and walk towards Zhu Youxiao: "Your Majesty, I..."

Although they are kings and ministers, they have naturally developed a lot of friendship for this empire after working for so many years under the same roof.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao ran towards Yuan Keli with a worried look on his face, and down the steps in a panic.

Wang Chengen wanted to help him but he pushed him away.

Yuan Keli also had tears in his eyes. After gritting his teeth and taking a few steps, he felt dizzy, his feet became weak, and he turned to the steps.

Bi Ziyan and Liu Hongxun were also older, so naturally they couldn't hold on.

Zhu Youxiao had to step faster, and at the same time, scenes of the past between the monarch and the ministers appeared in his mind.

However, when Zhu Youxiao came to Yuan Keli and was about to help him up, he found that he had lost his body temperature, his eyes were closed, and his chest did not rise or fall any more.

Zhu Youxiao was stunned.

Another prime minister has left.
