Abstract: After the middle of the Ming Dynasty, along with the rapid social changes, the ideological trend of practical studies guided by the reflection and criticism of the Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism of "putting books on the shelf and not reading, exploring and studying without foundation" profoundly, widely, and comprehensively, affected every aspect of literary life.Influenced by this, selecting ancient proses in the Tianqi and Chongzhen periods developed new characteristics in three aspects: the purpose of selecting, the preferences of selecting, and the path of evaluating.As far as the purpose of selection is concerned, there is a new trend that the ancient writers of Tianqi and Chongzhen take the enlightenment and the world as the purpose of selection, and are no longer confined to the stereotypes of selecting articles for articles and selecting articles for their emotions.A large number of articles reflecting the economy and people's livelihood, military affairs, and politics have been included in the anthology horizon of the anthology, thus expanding the selection types of ancient Chinese anthology.From the point of view of comments, the comments of Tianqi and Chongzhen ancient prose appear to be "especially today".The merit of the ancient prose of management and government and the application of the world can replace the layout of the text, words, and rhetoric, and become the value of the selection of home evaluation.
