Speaking of which, there are ready-made examples of the Cuju competition system. The political hall should not be able to think of what it means...
Looking at these confused husbands, Zhao Xi had no choice but to continue explaining.
"First of all, it is indeed a good thing to acknowledge that the court debate caused Bianliang to be keen on debating scriptures."
"However, how to do both things well is the responsibility of the imperial court. The imperial court should standardize the debate on scriptures in Bianliang. To put it bluntly, the imperial court must have the final say on the debate on scriptures!"
"Since private scholars have already started debating scriptures, the court should now organize it in an official name to standardize the whole debating and avoid tarnishing the classics."
“Designate a venue for Bible debate, set standards for participants, and invite everyone from the Bible debate, whether private or official, to serve as judges to determine the outcome of each Bible debate.”
"At the same time, the outcome of each debate can be used as a reference score for the final court debate...~For specific operations, please refer to the Cuju competition system."
They are all elites, but their thinking is solidified and they are reluctant to associate politeness with the barbaric Cuju. Zhao Xi only needs to pierce this layer of paper and believe that the husband of the political hall can organize this grand event.
As for whether there will be unfair victory or defeat due to closeness... How can I put it aside, regardless of the respect that literati of this era have for classics, there is no good way to prevent it.
Zhao Xi also left a window... which is the reference score for the final court debate. The outcome of the court debate and how to determine the final scientific examination are still decided by yourself.
Let them play for a while, then play with them yourself.
This meeting was almost equivalent to the official issuing an edict, and it was an edict that no one could refute.
There is no way, from the beginning, I was knocked unconscious by the label of insulting elegance and trampling on classics. These literati really dare not bear this reputation.
Even if there is a confidentiality law as a guarantee, no one will compete on this matter. After all, the official decision is also conducive to the spread of Wenhua.
Here it comes again, here comes another rumor that has swept the country.
According to the Cuju competition system, the imperial court established a venue for the debate in Bianliang, and strictly regulated the number of debates and the number of participants.
The merchants of the imperial dynasty should be the most sensitive group. As soon as the news came out from the imperial court, merchants like Fan Lou began to use Fan Lou as a place for scripture debate.
"Fan Lou gives students 500 SGD and judges 200 SGD for each Bible debate, so that Fan Lou can have a Bible debate every day..."
"Qin Niang has contacted Lao Liu's family and is planning to take over a space for debate in Juxiang Tower, and also provide salaries for debaters and judges...~"
Why did the government give up such a good opportunity to make a fortune like this?
Not only Fanlou and Juxianglou, but also famous restaurants in Bianliang, including Goulan, are doing this.
You can let Mrs. Qin take care of everything, so why let them all take advantage?
It should be mentioned that Juxianglou was run by Zhao Xi and Zhao Qin in the form of a teahouse in later generations.
There are no messy things in Juxiang Building. It just provides people with tea and snacks. Occasionally, scholars will talk about scriptures there. It is the most suitable place for this debate.
Even though Juxianglou is dull, it is really popular. Even if relatives and friends come to Bianliang, not inviting people to Juxianglou is looking down on the literary talent of their relatives and friends.
The most admired thing about Juxiang Tower is that as soon as you enter the hall, there is a wall where scholars wrote poems and left their names.
Going too far again.
When culture meets economy, economy can promote cultural development.
Zhao Xi originally made a casual move, but he didn't expect it to have such a result.
From now on, even if there is no court defense, the scholars of the imperial court will not abandon this method.
Everyone, whether it is classics and righteousness, or celebrities in poetry and literature, all have to eat, right? This will be a huge industry, a cultural industry, and the resulting content and benefits will be immeasurable.
"Seriously!"
Zhao Xi heard what Wang Zhong was saying...this kid!
"Back at the official residence, the Political Affairs Hall determined four locations for the debate, and stipulated that the debate would begin every day after leaving office..."
"Xue Zi was handing a note to the Political Affairs Hall, suggesting that the imperial court and merchants who organized scripture debates should sell admission tickets to make profits. However, Xianggong Sima and Xianggong Ouyang refuted it, saying that Wenhua should not be tainted with the smell of copper..."
This is probably why Zhengshitang didn't tell him.
Xue Xiang was also considered a Qiandi person. When he came up with such an idea, the Political Affairs Hall immediately suppressed him.
Pity……
I really can't say anything about this matter, it can be regarded as being suppressed by the hat I threw out. I hope the court will understand in the end.
"The Zhengshitang invited some veteran officials, such as Zeng Gong, and Hanlin bachelors with no obvious traces of academic schools to judge..."
Because of the Bible debate, the Imperial City Secretary almost reported it every day, and this was only information after filtering.
Not to mention the amount of scattered information.
In this way, a debate similar to Cuju was launched vigorously in Bianliang.
Zhao Xi also thought about going to the scene to see it himself, but he also knew that this was unrealistic.
The reason is...~ The cultural level of the Imperial City Division is really not flattering. Sometimes the reports brought back are the reports from the Bible debate. They are just lively, without any skills, and even the sentences are wrong.
The Imperial City Department's investigation is very important. After Zhao Xi ascended the throne, he became more aware of the importance of this institution. But if he really became a scholar, who would deign to become a royal domestic slave?
Just thinking about it, I knew it was impossible. Just like Zhao Xi wanted to see the Bible debate scene.
Being an emperor is actually very hard, and the scope of activities is too limited, mainly in a place as large as the inner garden.
If you can get out, you must either mobilize troops or avoid courtiers...otherwise you will definitely be criticized.
The courtiers will definitely not miss such a grand event like the debate on scriptures. If they really go there, they will be scolded.
Forget it, let you play for now. You will know in the end that you are being played...
It was indeed a grand event. During the breaks in conducting official business, all the departments in the court always discussed the content of the debate. Even in the public hall, debates were included from time to time.
The Imperial City Secretary's report in this regard was much clearer. Compared with debating scriptures, they focused more on the daily life of court ministers.
Zhao Xi was a little unsure whether this was a good thing or not. According to the values of this era, even if you are not working, you must understand the meaning of the scriptures. But in Zhao Xi's opinion, this is not doing your job properly.
Forget it, forget it again, after all, there hasn't been any delay in official duties, it's just a report from the Imperial City Department.
How should I put it, Zhao Xi is quite rational and clear-minded, and will not and does not want to be influenced by the Imperial City Secretary's preferences.
Just as he cannot be swayed by the fact that the entire country is keen on debating classics and meanings, he will not be swayed by the results of the current Bianliang debate on classics and his idea of reducing talents in an eclectic way.
The scriptures are those of ancient sages, and their interpretations are those of today's literati. However, the selection of talents is done by the imperial court, for the Zhao family dynasty.
In other words, you still have to have the final say on this matter. Whether it is the rules and content of court debates, or how to select talents for scientific examinations, you should have the final say.
