“What is science, you ask?”

"What Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism can explain, my science can explain."

"What Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism cannot explain, my science can also explain."

"Astronomy, geography, physics, chemistry, economic management, all aspects needed for the Ming Dynasty can be found in it."

"Based on the content of my previous lectures, I believe that Your Majesty understands that what Jiang said is true."

If it were anyone else, Zhu Di would not believe it.

But when Jiang Xinghuo said this, he still said it with "Your Majesty", and Zhu Di began to consider trusting him.

However, Zhu Di still had to continue to think about it before making a decision on using science to fight Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism.

After all, the content of "Eight Strategies for Reform" did not include this part. Zhu Di also subconsciously thought that if he supported a new theory, wouldn't it become another Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism?

If it is combined with the new handicraft class, it is probably not impossible to have the same effect as the combination of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism and the Jiangnan gentry class, which will also threaten the imperial rule.

Jiang Xinghuo could naturally guess Zhu Di's thoughts.

But Jiang Xinghuo was not in a hurry to convince Zhu Di.

The reason is also very simple. Promoting science to fight against the old Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism is actually inevitable after the reform enters a certain stage.

There is no need to elaborate on the truth here, you can understand it with a little thought.

Therefore, Jiang Xinghuo doesn't care whether Zhu Di is unwilling to agree to large-scale promotion of science out of considerations of consolidating imperial power.

When Zhu Di is shown the power of science and technology and helps Zhu Di solve some problems that Cheng Zhu Di cannot solve at all, Zhu Di will be "really fragrant".

Jiang Xinghuo just laid some groundwork and deepened the concept of "science" that was previously implanted in Zhu Di's mind.

Immediately, Zhu Di deliberately skipped this topic and asked.

"Then what will happen to the Donglin Party in the future predicted by Mr. Jiang?"

Upon hearing this question, Jiang Xinghuo slowly tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingers and recited a poem.

"Qianyi comes from a good mind, and his talent in mountain fighting is famous all over the world. After the country is defeated, he will face the North Palace again, and his official position will still be the old Donglin."

After reciting the poem, Jiang Xinghuo shook his head and sighed: "Unfortunately, the water is still too cold and the scalp is too itchy."

Water too cold?

Scalp too itchy?

Zhu Di was quite confused.

Thanks to Mr. "One Word" for joining the alliance. If you haven't joined the newly created alliance leader group, you can add it.
