After the reward was over, Duke Xingguo was still kept by Emperor Chongzhen and had a meal in the palace.

As for other officials, they naturally do whatever they should do. They can't even think about it. Only Duke Xingguo has this qualification.

However, their current focus is that after experiencing the last Duke Xingguo attended the emperor's family dinner, they have become a little used to it. They have not paid attention to it anymore, but have paid attention to the rewards about this time.

"Is the contribution of the Shanhaiguan Navy ranked third?"

"Yes, it's just a navy. I haven't gone to fight with Jianlu. I actually ranked third when I was placing credit!"

"You can't say that. The infantry can accidentally intercept Jianlu's retreat, and the cavalry can raid Ningyuan without supplies. This is because of the navy. Without the navy, this battle will definitely not be like this!"

"You said this, it seems to make some sense, but I always feel that the credit is actually big or small, and the court has arranged it to the big one. Didn't you see it? After hearing the navy guerrilla, he obviously didn't expect it."

"Is the court's trend changing? After the Pidao victory, did you mean that you would set up a Martial Arts Hall for the Navy? This kind of thing has never happened before!"

"It's very likely, but what happened to Zheng Zhilong? He hasn't come to the capital yet!"

"Who knows!"

“…”

Only a small number of officials were discussing the topic of the navy. What more officials were discussing was the rewards of Duke Xingguo, which was really special.

During the previous court discussion, based on the power of Duke Xingguo, there were examples from previous ones. No one dared to object in front of Duke Xingguo, but behind the scenes, there were quite a few people talking.

"You said, what did Duke Xingguo think? No one can do it in his dreams, but Duke Xingguo refused directly!"

"Yes, I missed my Ming Dynasty. Not to mention hereditary titles, even ordinary titles are very rare. I really don't know what the Duke thought!"

"Actually, I have to tell you that although the Duke of the Kingdom has been leading troops to fight in the past few years, the Duke of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the

"Yes, look at the Ming Dynasty Academy run by the Duke of China, which is so large! Have you ever seen it? It's so big! There are also teaching buildings, experimental buildings, library pavilions, sports fields, etc., many names are the first time I heard of. Now half of it has been built, and I almost got lost in it!"

"You said this, it's true. Although hereditary titles are indeed very rare, in the world, who has the ability to learn from the Imperial College? Wang Yangming Gong didn't have this ability back then! Going further, he can only be considered a Saint Zhu! However, Saint Zhu was recognized by Taizu's family!"

"You make sense. Originally, the hereditary title only influenced the Duke Xingguo family, but now, the newly-student enrolled in the Imperial College has affected millions of scholars in the future. If you count it like this, it really may not be who will lose or who will make a profit!"

"Also, do you see if this trend is there? I feel that the next step may be that there will be a new study in the scientific examination. Do you believe it?"

"How can this be done?"

"What's wrong? Think about it, with the current power of the Duke, his age and the emperor's age? Have you ever thought about it before when you are newly admitted to the Imperial College? I can tell you that there may be a day when the new student needs to take the exam!"

"That won't work. Do you want all scholars in the world to learn new things? How is this possible!"

"Yes, Xinxue just listens to bragging, saying that you can see a thousand miles of eyes and ears, and what else can you travel thousands of miles a day? That thing has been realized?"

"Does a microscope count?"

"Uh...not count, anyway, I think the new school is being hyped too much now. They are all a group of flatterers, or fearing the power of Duke Xingguo, and they are all playing with the new school!"

"I also feel that, but it's normal to think about it. Ordinary knowledge, dare to compete with Confucius and Mencius's studies, and dare to challenge the Four Books and Five Classics? If you don't blow your new learning out of the sky, will the emperor agree to the new learning be admitted to the Imperial College, and can the people in the world learn new learning?"

“…”

The hereditary Duke is the most attractive for military generals; and the newly-study and enrolled in the Imperial College, this is the most shocking for civil officials. After these civil and military officials dispersed the yamen, they also spread this matter.

For a moment, the people in the capital, including scholars, were discussing this matter.

Their views are similar to what these officials discussed.

Especially those scholars are very concerned about the matter of new students entering the Imperial College. If Duke Xingguo is not in person, he will have less scruples when he speaks, and thus the doubts about new students are also spread in private.

The discovery of the microscope of the microscope was indeed shocking.

However, now only a few people, no more than single digits, have microscopes that can see the microscope. If you have the opportunity to see the microscope through a microscope, it is estimated that there will be no more than a hundred people.

This number of people is actually negligible compared to the entire group of readers.

Those scholars who have never seen the microscopic world with their own eyes always think that those articles that have published the microscopic world are too exaggerated. After all, exaggeration is the norm for literati to write articles.

The topics that have been spreading about new learning are very attractive, which means that if you study hard, you can fly above and dive below. It is no problem to travel a thousand miles a day, you can see a thousand miles a day, and you can see a thousand miles apart, and you can hear the wind.

These topics seem to be magical, which is hard to believe.

However, those who have learned the new study are very clear about this and can do this with whatever they say. In this regard, before, based on the power of Duke Xingguo, they might have agreed to it a few times and be curious, and that's it.

But now that they have new students to enter the Imperial College, their attitude towards new students is different.

After all, it is the first step to enter the Imperial College for a new school, and it may be even more afraid of scholars when they need to take the scientific exam in the future.

Originally, the content of the exam was just the Four Books and Five Classics, and I had to study hard for many years. But I had to take other knowledge that sounded strange, and wouldn't it be better to live?

As of now, these scholars account for the majority. Only a very small number of people passed the interview at the Ming Dynasty Jingshi Academy. When they first started studying in the academy, these people were happy to see it.

Therefore, as soon as the news of new students entering the Imperial College spread, many scholars, the most important ones were those who had not yet learned new studies and had not yet come into contact with new studies, attacked new studies privately.

They cannot refute new learning in the field of new learning, after all, they don’t even know anything about new learning. However, this does not prevent them from attacking new learning, saying that new learning is bragging, and they can’t do anything they have said. Who can’t do this? Anyway, there are all kinds of Balabara!

Zhang Mingwei doesn’t know about these things yet, because he is talking to Emperor Chongzhen in the palace!

"Sir, this war seems to be very simple." Emperor Chongzhen said to Zhang Mingwei with a smile, "I have been paying attention to it before, just to let the relevant civil and military officials explain the situation clearly, and then let them discuss how to fight and form a conclusion. Then, I won like this! Mr., is that?"

Zhang Mingwei laughed and said, he looked around first, and only Wang Chengen was with them, and the other palace maids and eunuchs were far away.

So he said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, in later generations, they have military academies to cultivate talents in all aspects of war. Then each army has a staff department, which is a professional staff team. People who are good at various fields are listed and the head coach refers to various possible situations on the battlefield, and help the head coach formulate combat plans. Compared with today, the success or failure of the war is no longer limited to the wisdom of the head coach."

After a pause, he added: "But this was the case with all the troops at that time. After a war, some people still won the battle and some people defeated the battle. If this system is used in the present and others do not have it, our Ming Dynasty has it, it should indeed increase the winning rate!"

Emperor Chongzhen was just a joke, but unexpectedly it really caused an accident. After hearing this, he immediately said happily: "Then I will issue an order to do this?"

"Yes!" Zhang Mingwei said without any objection when he heard this, "but it is best to pilot it first. This kind of school that cultivates military talents will also be opened first, and then promote it if you have experience in the future."

Speaking of this, he remembered something and asked, "How is the preparation of the Navy Martial Arts Hall?"

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he smiled and said, "That Zheng Zhilong said he was in good health and could not set off for the time being. I asked my partner to send Dongchang to investigate secretly to see if he was in good health!"

It is indeed not easy to make the Zheng family give up what they are today. However, it is better to be gentle as the Zheng family. Otherwise, it would take many years to rebuild the Ming Navy!

Thinking of this, he said this to Emperor Chongzhen.

Emperor Chongzhen agreed with Zhang Mingwei's consideration and said to him: "Then the matters of the Zheng family will be left to the teacher."

Wang Chengen heard this, echoed, and then asked without a trace: "The Duke of the State has to consider the war against the enemy. It's so busy."

When Zhang Mingwei heard this, he smiled and said, "No soldier has left the pass, so let Jianlu go to trouble first. Next, let the Korean War in Dongjiang Town be ready. We are not in a hurry, just waste Jianlu slowly!"

Emperor Chongzhen nodded when he heard this and was about to speak, he had already arrived at his destination. Empress Zhou, accompanied by Zhu Meiyu, had already come over.

So, let’s not talk about it for now, the family dinner begins.
Chapter completed!
