Zhu Youxiao thought for a while and said: "I was negligent.
The graduate school really needs to open more subjects.
Do you think this is a good idea?
I will add an additional subject of literature and history and a drama course in the graduate school.
You stay in the graduate school first.
The college, please think carefully about how to set up the Department of Literature and History, and then give me a suggestion.
I will open the Department of Literature, History and Drama.
What do you think?"
Zhang Dai shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the student has no academic achievements, how can he know how the liberal arts and history department was established?
There are many princes in the court who have outstanding literary talent.
However, the student's grandfather once established a theater troupe at home, so the student knows a little bit about it."
Zhu Youxiao said: "It's not that you have outstanding literary talent to know how to establish the liberal arts and history department.
I just want you to see how the liberal arts and history department should be established as a person who loves literature and history.
What you provide is only one aspect of your opinion.
Sir, I will also inquire.
Since you also know drama, let’s give you some advice.”
Zhang Dai bowed and stepped back.
Another student in his thirties came forward and bowed: "Your Majesty, student Xu Hongzu thinks that we geography students should go out for internships and inspect the mountains and rivers topography in various parts of our country.
It will be useful both in economics and military aspects, so All the classmates specially recommended students to apply to His Majesty."
Zhu Youxiao suddenly remembered a person, the famous traveler, and asked: "What is your word?"
Xu Hongzu was very surprised, lowered his head and replied: "Student Biaozi Zhenzhi."
Zhu Youxiao thought, it turns out it's not Xu Xiake.
He said: "Your suggestion is very reasonable.
Geography should indeed be practiced more.
You can ask your department to apply to the dean and deputy mountain chief, make a plan yourself, and then show it to me."
Xu Hongzu didn't expect that he could get the emperor's approval so easily.
He bowed deeply with joy and said, "Thank you for your great kindness.
I will definitely make the internship useful to the court."
Zhu Youxiao shook his head and said: "The specific effect is secondary.
I hope that during your internship, you can record everything you see and hear on the road and write a travel diary to let everyone know how beautiful the Ming Dynasty's rivers and mountains are.
This That’s the most important thing.
As for the military, we have specialized surveying and mapping personnel, and you are probably not good at prospecting and mining.
Of course, it would be better if you can find things that they have not discovered.”
When Xu Hongzu was fifteen years old, he passed the boy's examination but failed.
He was born with a strange hobby and wanted to go out to explore the mysteries of famous mountains and rivers.
He also wanted to draw famous mountains and rivers in the world as a general aspiration, but because of his old mother, he could not bear to go.
Xu's mother was open-minded and reasonable, and actively encouraged Xu Hongzu to travel far away.
In the thirty-sixth year of Wanli, the 22-year-old Xu Hongzu finally officially traveled.
He traveled to Zhejiang and Fujian.
During the trip, he heard that the Capital University was recruiting talents in geography.
He felt that there were many inconveniences in traveling alone, so he came The capital was admitted to the geography class.
He originally thought that since it was a geography subject, he would naturally travel to various places for inspections, but instead he was learning some geography knowledge.
He was not calm anymore and wanted to drop out of school.
When he went to Si Ye, Si Ye heard what he wanted and asked him to come to the emperor to express his opinions.
He came to inquire with the last glimmer of hope, but he got this instead.

Good results.
Of course, Zhu Youxiao did not know that Xu Hongzu was the famous Xu Xiake in later generations.
Xiake was his nickname rather than his name.
The last one was a scholar in his forties.
He bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the student Ling Shuchu was originally a student in the mechanical sciences, but he does not understand mechanical manufacturing, so he requested to drop out of school."
Zhu Youxiao had vaguely heard of this name, but couldn't remember what this person did.
But since I have heard the name, I can’t let it go.
He smiled and said: "Since you don't understand mechanics, why did you apply for the instrument department in the first place?"
Ling Shuchu said with a look of shame on his face: "Your Majesty, the student was a supplementary student at the age of 18.
However, he failed to pass the exam many times and is still a deputy tribute.
Seeing that your Majesty opened a new subject to obtain scholars, he wanted to Change course because students once I had done printing and wanted to learn the art of printing, so I took the exam in the Instrument Department.
I didn’t realize that the Instrument Department was about making cannons or steam engines, but there was no printing technique.
The student was incompetent, so he had to apply to drop out.”
When Ling Huchu replied, Zhu Youxiao racked his brains and still couldn't remember what this person did, so he had to give up.
Hearing him say that he was good at printing books, he said: "Actually, printing books is indeed related to the Instrument Department.
In addition to making firecrackers and cannons, the Instrument Department can also manufacture all kinds of machinery.
Printing can also be powered by water or even steam engines.
Since you are interested in this, why not be responsible for the development of printing machinery?"
Ling Shuchu thought for a while and replied: "Actually, students want to compile books.
Of course they are also interested in developing printing presses, so let's develop printing machinery."
When he talked about compiling a book, Zhu Youxiao finally remembered that he was the author of "Surprise at the First Moment" and "Surprise at the Second Moment".
He immediately said: "Since you are not very proficient in mechanical matters, and I am planning to add two subjects of literature and history and drama in the graduate school, why don't you come to the literature and history department and let others study printing machinery."
Ling Shuchu naturally did not want it, so he asked: "Your Majesty, the student is willing to go to the liberal arts and history department."
Zhu Youxiao laughed and said: "Zhang Dai, who just studied geography, also wants to enter the liberal arts and history department.
I want him to think about how to build the liberal arts and history department.
Now this task is also given to you.
When the time comes, you can submit a copy to me.
Come with the proposal."
Ling Shuchu was very excited.
After thanking him, he left happily.
Zhu Youxiao called Bi Maokang, the dean of the graduate school, and said: "Today I met several graduate students who wanted to drop out of school because they felt that there was nothing suitable for them to study.
Therefore, I am going to open two new subjects in the graduate school.
A discipline of literature and history, a discipline of drama, what does Bi Qing think?"
Bi Maokang thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, it's just the liberal arts and history department.
What is the drama department for?
Is it specifically used to write dramas?
Why not add drama to the literature and history?
And novels can also be added."
Zhu Youxiao thought about it.
Aren't novels and dramas all literary genres?
It wouldn't be a bad idea to add them to the list.
Bi Maokang added: "Your Majesty, the six subjects of the institute do not cover all kinds of talents.
When applying for the exam that day, it was said that those with expertise in a certain area can apply, but after applying, it was limited to the six subjects, so naturally there will be Students feel that they cannot learn what they want to learn.
Now that His Majesty has added two new subjects, some people will feel that there is nothing they want to learn among the eight subjects.
Will it become nine subjects and ten subjects again?

Zhu Youxiao said: "Yes, I think so too.
Did Bi Qing teach me?"
