Zhu Youxiao's generous hospitality to Shen Tingyun naturally spread out of the palace very quickly.
This matter itself cannot be concealed, and Zhu Youxiao did not want to hide it.
Officials in the court all realized one thing, that is, Shen Tingyun was trusted by His Majesty.
At the same time, some people also knew that this was something that Shen Tingyun took out to satisfy His Majesty, so countless people began to inquire about what this thing was.
This matter itself is very sensitive, and now with a situation like this, it has naturally been pushed to the forefront.
Although not everyone is qualified to get this information, a lot of it has been leaked.
The aspect that caused the most controversy was the teaching of literature.
The point that the opponents attacked was actually something that Zhu Youxiao had thought of a long time ago, which was that Shen Tingyun's academy was not mainly focused on teaching Confucianism.
In Shen Tingyun's conception, the academy taught many subjects, even including law, which meant that there were elements of Legalism in it.
Although it is no longer appropriate to talk about the Hundred Schools of Thought nowadays, as they no longer exist in this world, we can still use them to label people.
So countless people pushed Shen Tingyun hard. You know, this big hat can crush people to death. At the same time, it can also unite the scholars to deal with Shen Tingyun, share the same hatred and enemy, and even in the future, all those who are with Shen Tingyun can be labeled with this hat.
Some people are also planning to label the students in the academy with this label.
In a word, whether in official circles or in academia, people like Shen Tingyun must be excluded from the mainstream circle, leaving them with no ground for survival.
Zhu Youxiao didn't care about the actions of his opponents because someone would deal with them.
Zhu Youxiao himself was not good at this, but Xu Guangqi and others were better at it.
Sure enough, Xu Guangqi and others soon began to fight back. Countless people began to submit questions and started a debate in the academic community on "What is Confucianism?"
Some people even started to ask, "What kind of Confucianism is the Confucianism that people today need to learn?"
Someone shouted, "There are so many works in the world, all written by people in different dynasties. But we are in the Ming Dynasty, we need to learn selectively, and it is impossible to learn everything from everyone, because there are good and bad in them. Take the essence and discard the dross!"
After receiving this news, Zhu Youxiao probably understood what Xu Guangqi and others were going to do.
This clearly shows that Xu Guangqi and his colleagues wanted to write their own textbooks, and it should have been produced by several of them working together.
Zhu Youxiao did not mention this matter himself, but Xu Guangqi and others still thought of it.
However, Zhu Youxiao was still very concerned about the compilation of textbooks, because he could not allow Xu Guangqi and others to instill their own ideas into the academy.
Neither Li Zhi's thoughts nor Xu Guangqi's Catholic thoughts are acceptable.
The Ming Dynasty needs to have its own ideas, which should be brand new and summarized on a certain basis.
However, Zhu Youxiao also knew that it was not the time for him to intervene in this matter yet, so he let them argue with each other first. In the end, nothing would come of it anyway.
By the time things get to me, it will still be in time for me to take action.
While Zhu Youxiao was sitting at the table, chewing candied fruit and thinking about these questions, Chen Hong gently came to Zhu Youxiao's side, bowed and said softly: "Your Majesty, the Empress is here."
Queen?
This surprised Zhu Youxiao. He didn't expect Empress Zhang to come here.
However, Zhu Youxiao could probably understand the little girl's thoughts. They had just gotten married and were in love with each other.
Speaking of which, I haven't been to Empress Zhang's place for two days. I'm afraid the little girl must be feeling lonely.
"Let the queen in." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile in his eyes.
Soon Empress Zhang came in from outside.
You can see that she is a little excited and seems a little nervous.
Upon seeing Zhu Youxiao, Empress Zhang quickly leaned forward and said softly, "Your Majesty."
Zhu Youxiao walked down from the dragon throne with a smile, and went straight to Empress Zhang's side. He gently took Empress Zhang's delicate little hand and said in a gentle tone, "Baozhu, why are you here?"
When Empress Zhang heard Zhu Youxiao calling her nickname, two pink blushes suddenly appeared on her cheeks.
Empress Zhang glanced at her Majesty shyly, biting her lip and saying, "Let me see... let me see Your Majesty. Your Majesty has been busy these past two days, and I'm a little worried about you."
Zhu Youxiao looked at Empress Zhang's shy expression, smiled, then took her hand and walked out of the hall.
He looked up at the clear sky outside, then turned to Empress Zhang and said, "The weather is nice today. Since Baozhu is here, please accompany me for a walk."
Empress Zhang naturally had no objection to Zhu Youxiao's proposal.
Originally, she shouldn't have come, after all, doing so would have seemed a bit overbearing. But now that everyone had just entered the palace, the vying for favor and consolidating their positions had already begun, and as the empress, Empress Zhang naturally had more concerns.
Zhu Youxiao knew about Empress Zhang's worries and concerns, so he chose to take Empress Zhang out for a walk so that everyone could see her.
At this time, Chen Hong came over and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, I will go to the Hundred Craftsmen's Court and tell them that Your Majesty will not be coming over today."
As he spoke, Chen Hong looked at Empress Zhang with some apology.
