"I heard that you are going to the Liliang Poetry Club this time?" After sitting down, Zhu Youde also asked.
"Exactly, Brother Feng has great literary talent. He will definitely be able to show off his talent in the poetry meeting this time." The student who just spoke, named Situ Mingrong, said eagerly this time.
After hearing this, Feng Yuyue waved his hand: "Brother Situ, there is no need to explain where the talent is..."
Although he said these words, there seemed to be some worry in his eyes.
Seemingly seeing the worry in his eyes, Zhu Youde said, "Brother Feng looks sad, I don't know why?"
Situ Mingrong grabbed the conversation again and sighed: "Although Brother Feng has great literary talent, now the four major academies are going together. Our Mingde College has always been suppressed, and there is no one to backstage. In the previous poetry meeting
, there’s not much time to show off your talent.”
Although Situ Mingrong kept talking, Zhu Youde also found him a bit interesting.
Naturally, Zhu Youde knew something about what he was talking about.
There are so many people selected from the four major academies, but it is impossible for so many people to write poems together in the poetry meeting.
Generally speaking, in poetry societies, there will be a recommender.
Most of these recommenders are powerful ministers in the court.
Most of the ministers of the DPRK and Central Government came from the other three colleges, so they would naturally suppress this civilian college.
"That's not necessary. I'm too worried. I heard that a talented woman took action this time. I wonder, brother, do you have confidence?" Zhu Youde smiled but said nothing and asked.
Feng Yuyue thought for a while and then said: "Although Murong Meili is a woman, I have read his poems before. He is indeed a hero among women. Now that these four years have passed, I still don't know."
"Furthermore, in this poetry meeting, which should be said to be a literary meeting, there are still some other topics. I may be a little behind in the poetry, but I still have some confidence in the strategy."
This policy theory is really a theory of national policy.
From what Feng Yuyue said just now, we can see that he is a very low-key and humble person.
Now that you have confidence in policy theory, it shows that you really have literary talent.
"Why is Brother Feng so confident about this policy?" Zhu Youde was a little curious and asked.
When Situ Mingrong heard this, he spoke quite proudly: "Of course I am confident. Among our colleges, policy theory should be the best among the four major academies."
"Why?"
"The dean of our academy is the former Taifu, and he also teaches us personally." Tu Mingrong continued.
Zhu Youde still has some memories of his former Taifu.
This Tutor seems to be very upright, fair and honest.
At the beginning, he often put forward some opinions to Zhu Youde, but Zhu Youde basically had the same attitude towards those suggestions and ignored them.
As time went by, the Taifu became very disappointed with the court, and he simply resigned from his official position.
Then he entered this academy and became the dean of Mingde Academy.
But for him, serving as such a small dean seems to make him happier.
Now that I think about it carefully, the former Tutor was truly a rare talent.
It's a pity that the predecessor was too blind and forcibly made a court look like this.
In addition to the imperial examination, there is another way for the imperial court to select scholars, which is to select scholars from this academy. As long as you enter this academy, it is basically equivalent to having half a foot in the officialdom.
But just like what happened before, most of the people who entered the officialdom were from the other three major academies, and very few people from Mingde College were recommended.
Generally speaking, the only reason is that these people are all civilians.
When the ancestors of Daliang established this academy, it was actually more to appease the noble children.
Because there was no hereditary system for official positions, it initially aroused resistance from many nobles.
The ancestors finally established these academies. The three major academies are for nobles and the third academies are for common people.
But even if there is only one, it is still not taken seriously.
This is a vicious cycle in itself. The less people there are in the court, the harder it will be for the academy to develop. The harder it is for the academy to develop, the less people there will be in the court.
It is not that there were no children from the academy who entered the court and became officials.
However, after many officials entered the imperial court, their mentality gradually began to change a lot.
Those officials who have not gained momentum have always been suppressed.
Those officials who were lucky enough to be reused gradually turned from those who wanted to slay dragons into evil dragons.
This kind of story itself is not uncommon, and it is extremely common in the court.
After all, no one can resist the temptation of power.
When an interest group offers you an olive branch, most people will choose to accept it.
If you refuse the olive branch of such an interest group, then the interest group will think that you are not in line with others, and will even continue to suppress you.
While Zhu Youde was chatting with them, he was also learning about some folk affairs.
I have to say that these are all scholars, so the bookishness in their words is quite strong.
Several times, the emperor was discussed.
Their attitudes towards today's Holy Master are basically the same.
They are all unanimous disparages.
But Zhu Youde was not angry at their belittling.
Instead, he was laughing and complaining with them about some of the things his predecessor had done.
It's not because of Zhu Youde that he was tortured.
After all, it was his predecessor who was sprayed, not himself.
When Luo Xian heard what Zhu Youde said, she covered her mouth and kept laughing.
We are of the same age, so after talking for a while, we started to get acquainted with each other.
An hour passed by in a blink of an eye. Zhu Youde looked at the sky outside and knew that it was already late.
He came here just for business, so naturally he couldn't stay here for too long.
After settling the bill, he also said goodbye in a hurry.
But today he went out and played a little bit, and his mood improved a lot.
Of course, he didn't forget about the business and went to the pawn shop.
After investigation by Meihua secret guards, Zhu Youde found a pawn shop where Zheng Ling'er usually stayed.
At this time, Zheng Ling'er was not in the pawn shop. Zhu Youde could only write a letter and ask the handyman to give it to her when Zheng Ling'er came back.
Zhu Youde soon returned to the palace, and the sky had also dimmed.
However, Zhu Youde did not return to the palace and drafted some edicts.
Now regarding the academy matter, Zhu Youde is still prepared to implement it step by step.
Although Zhu Youde wanted to completely change the current situation of the academy in one fell swoop.
But he also knew that this was almost impossible.
Things like academies touch the interests of too many people.
If we were to reform on our own, we would definitely encounter great obstacles.
All kinds of obstacles are the obstacles of an interest group, not the obstacles of a single person.
