1, local and military Confucian education is unprecedentedly developed;
2. The central government established imperial academy as the highest institution of learning. Since the Tang Dynasty, the central official school has been a multi-disciplinary school, all of which are managed by imperial academy. On the other hand, Ming Taizu only established Guo Zi School, which was renamed imperial academy in the 15th year of Hongwu. As a result, imperial academy has changed from the administrative organization of the central official school since the Tang Dynasty to a purely national highest institution of learning. This change not only reduced the administrative level of the central official school, but also strengthened the control of higher education.
3. The government-run Confucian education system is unprecedented and complete, forming an unprecedented stable and rigorous government-run Confucian education system.
4. Established the basic pattern of government-run education with the imperial examination as the axis.
5. Established "Guo Jianzi" as an official system, and selected outstanding students from Prince Edward or Guo Zi to directly become officials. It is of great significance to improve the overall cultural quality of officials, further expand the ruling foundation of the Ming Dynasty, and enhance the cohesion of all social strata to the court.
