I want to be a grandson

Chapter 356 Big Traitor!
None of them dared to make a sound, His Highness's words were too harsh!
The translation is, why didn't the people of the Kong family die in martyrdom!

Zhu Yunxi put his hands on the papers on the table, and said angrily: "In the past, Yan Shenggong, there is not a single man who is strong, not a single man who is brave, and there is not a single minister who is loyal!"

"If it is said that the inheritance is all from the Han dynasty, then that's fine. At least the rule of the Chinese nation has not been shaken. But when the Jin soldiers went south and the Mongols invaded the Central Plains, the dignified Confucian family actually acted as a minion!"

"Willingly working for the foreign hawks and dogs! How can you be called Yan Shenggong if you are so humble and have no integrity at all!"

Although Yan Shenggong has always been known as the leader of the ancient literary world, he does not have the strength and integrity of a literati.

Especially whenever the Central Plains faced alien invasion, Yanshenggong Mansion always chose to surrender at the first time.

In order to keep Yan Shenggong's title, he even bowed his knees!
Yanshenggong Mansion's vacillating attitude and behavior of counting both ends are also the most criticized by people in later generations.

The most hateful thing was during the handover of Ming and Qing Dynasties, when the Qing army marched south and Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself in Meishan.

Kong Yanzhi, the Duke of Yansheng at that time, immediately sent a letter of congratulations to Emperor Shunzhi, celebrating that the Tartars occupied the Central Plains and ruled the Han people!

You must know that the Ming Dynasty gave Yan Shenggong the highest treatment in history, and it also gave them the most honorable treatment!
But even so, the people of the Kong family still didn't have any gratitude. At that time, Emperor Chongzhen's body hadn't cooled down completely, and they turned against each other!

Moreover, the Nanming regime still has a relatively large influence. If the right time, place and people are in harmony, and the river is ruled, it is not impossible to become the second Southern Song Dynasty.

But the Kong family didn't show any kindness or loyalty, so they changed the family immediately!

And the most irritating thing is that after the order to shave the hair and make it easier to wear, Kong Yanzhi also euphemistically hoped that the sages could avoid the shaving.

In the end, he was reprimanded by Dorgon. In order to please the Qing Dynasty, Kong Yanzhi took the lead in shaving his hair and changing clothes, setting an example for the world!
What is the difference between this and traitors, lackeys, and second devils!
Since the Confucius family cooperated in this way, the Qing Dynasty did not disappoint them. In order to win over scholars from all over the world, they not only recognized all the privileges of Duke Yansheng in the Ming Dynasty,
He also made an exception to allow him to ride a horse in the Forbidden City and walk on the imperial road!
With such kindness, the Kong family will always be loyal, right?

Do not!
As an ordinary person, you can't imagine how shameless the Kong family is!
After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, when Yuan Shikai restored the monarchy, Kong Lingyi, the Duke of Yansheng, sent two "persuasion calls" in succession.

In the telegram, Yuan Shikai was asked to "ascend to the throne as soon as possible to comfort the popularity of the people".

Later, when Zhang Xun was restored, Kong Lingyi sent a telegram to say, "Respectfully accept the Ming Dynasty, the sun and the moon, the light, the perseverance, the perseverance, and the universal celebration."

After the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, the full-scale Anti-Japanese War broke out. Kong Decheng, the No. 70 seventh grandson of Confucius, even wrote a shameless poem "Jiangchuan, Zhusi and Siyuan flow together, and the situation is different from the same state"!
The meaning of this poem is to tell the people all over the country not to resist the Japanese. This is ethnic integration. The Japanese are not foreigners, so they are not considered an invasion!Surrender now!

Advocating that China and Japan "same language and same species" will win Japan's favor!

When Qufu fell, Kong Lingyu immediately hosted a banquet for the leaders of the Japanese invasion of China, Tian Xie, Kubo Tim, Okita, Ayukawa, Urushitani, Nara and others, in order to strengthen the "China-Japan friendship".

At that time, Confucianism, represented by the descendants of Confucius, not only played the role of assistants in the Japanese invasion of China,
Moreover, it also assumed the important role of "cultural policy adviser" for Japan's military aggression and political confusion against China,

Propagating that China should follow the "monarch, minister, minister, father, son" and "three principles and five constant principles" when facing Japan, respecting and worshiping Confucius has become an important means that Japan must carry out when it invades China.

Zhu Yunxi gritted his teeth in hatred for such traitors who worked for tigers, wishing to uproot them!

Zhu Yunxi turned to Yu Xin and asked, "The Kong family also has a rank in the imperial court. The Ministry of Household Affairs is responsible for distributing officials' salaries. You should be clear about this!"

Everyone looked at Yu Xin one after another, His Highness is going to let Yu Xin stand in line!
Because there is no Shangshu in the household department, Yu Xin, the servant, is also very powerful in speaking in court in the face of the household department, so he is also recruited to join the group!
Yu Xin suddenly felt a little thirsty, His Highness had already scolded the Kong family to such an extent that he simply wished that the Kong family would die!
How will His Highness avenge Bao Zhao next?
How to deal with the Kong family?

Judging from His Highness's attitude, the wrath of Thunder will definitely come down!It will definitely hurt the Kong family!
Glancing at the papers placed on the table, Yu Xin saluted and said: "Reporting to Your Highness, the imperial court canonized the only product of Yan Shenggong, ranking first among all civil and military officials."

"In the first year of Hongwu, His Majesty ordered that all the descendants of the Kong family be exempted from dispatch. In the seventh year of Hongwu, the Kong family was allowed to "repair their land, and pay taxes to those who are barren", so that they do not have to pay taxes..."

"And considering that the Kong family is a descendant of sages, they must bend the law to forgive those who violate the laws of the court."

There is no need to pay various taxes, and there is no need to participate in any labor!

Zhu Yunxi said displeasedly: "Is this the case for all the Yan Shenggongs in the past?"

Yu Xin took a breath, and replied: "In November of the first year of Hongwu, Kong Xi learned from Fengyan Shenggong, and advanced to the second rank of Yan Shenggong, and the official rank is Zishan Dafu.

Set up one person each for officials in charge of books, classics, music department, Zhiyin, Zuocha, and writing, and a professor department for Kong, Yan, and Meng, and a professor, Xuelu, and academic department. "

"Nishan and Zhusi two academies were also set up, each with one head, exempting the descendants of the Kong family and the descendants of Yan and Meng Dazong from corvée, and ordered Kong Xida, a member of his clan, oh, he is the grandson of Kongxicheng, who was hereditary in Qufu County magistrate, official rank Chengshilang."

"Until the 14th year of Hongwu, after Kong Xixue died of illness, his son Kong Na became the current Yansheng Gong, a first-class."

"Regarding the rank of Duke Yansheng, Duke Yansheng was ranked eighth in Song Renzong's time, and third in Yuan Dynasty. His Majesty treated the Confucius family kindly and promoted Duke Yan to rank one."

Zhu Yunxi said with a look of sudden realization: "Oh, the Kong family has not always been treated like this..."

He frowned slightly and said: "The current Yan Shenggong is all descended from Kong Sihui's lineage, but I heard the people below chew their tongues,
It is said that it is Kong Sihui, the fourth grandson of Confucius, the identity of this Yan Shenggong... is somewhat controversial, I don't know if it is true or not? "

As he spoke, his eyes drifted to Fu Youwen.

Everyone looked at Zhu Yunxi, Your Highness is not going to let the Kong family go easily!

In history, Yan Shenggong in the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, and even later, have been passed down in the line of Kong Sihui without interruption.

But his pedigree has always been controversial!
His origin is even more of a mystery!
Fu Youwen could tell that at the very beginning, His Highness pulled Qin Kui, the most difficult minister of the Ministry of Industry, to his side.

It's also fortunate that he pulled it early, if at this time, Qin Kui might not have the guts to "join the gang"!

After all, what His Highness expressed is very clear!

Yu Xin also expressed his opinion...

The most secret section of the Kong family, and also the hardest bone, is reserved for myself...

But as smart as Fu Youwen, he immediately knew how to stand in line!

Bowing and saluting, he said, "His Royal Highness, regarding Kong Sihui's background, according to the records of Kong's family tree, he is the eldest grandson of Kong Yuanxiao.

"However, there is no mention of his father Kong Huan, and there are basically zero records about Kong Huan.

The history of the Yuan Dynasty only records Kong Sihui, with the word Mingdao, and the 54 descendants of Confucius.The aptitude is heavy, but the nature is simple and silent. At that time, reading has already understood the righteousness. ...The family was poor, and he worked hard to support himself. Despite the extreme cold and heat, he never slackened in his studies, and competed for employment as a teacher for his disciples from far and near. "

Fu Youwen looked at Zhu Yunxi, then at the crowd,
Gathering up his courage, he said, "There are many rumors and rumors. Kong Sihui is not Kong Yuanxiao's eldest grandson at all. It's just that the Mongols replaced the Kong family's children with their own children and inherited Yan Shenggong."

Zhu Yunxi said: "Nonsense! How could he be a child of the Mongols! Doesn't that mean that the current Yan Shenggong is also a descendant of the Mongols!"

"Stop talking about such hearsay! If people listen to it and believe it to be true, then what should we do!"

Fu Youwen quickly said: "Yes, I made a slip of the tongue, Your Highness please punish me!"

"Speak freely today, and it's just rumors that Yan Shenggong is a descendant of the Mongren. If you report the truth, there is nothing to punish!"

"Thank you Your Highness..."

At this moment, Wang Zhong entered the hall and reported, "Your Highness, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment Yang Jing, and the imperial censor Cao Ming of the Right Capital are asking to see you."

"Xuan!"

Yang Jing and Cao Ming entered the hall, saluted and said, "Your highness, Yang Jing and Cao Ming, greet you!"

"You two are welcome.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Yang Jing asked: "His Royal Highness, just now the minister sent an order to send the minister to Shandong to investigate the case. The minister wants to have a look at the case."

Zhu Yunxi ordered Wang Zhong to bring them the pleading paper. After seeing the pleading paper, the two were also very shocked!

With such a thick stack, how many unjust cases must there be!
"Your Highness, this...all these are suing the Kong family?"

After briefly flipping through the pleadings, Yang Jing asked in disbelief.

Tie Xuan took the words and replied: "My lords, in order to protect these pleadings from entering Beijing, Mr. Bao Zhao, the head of our household department,
He was robbed and killed by bandits halfway, they burned down the post, killed soldiers, even Bao Zhao was wounded by arrows, his life and death are uncertain..."

Yang Jing understood that these must have been done by the Kong family!

Before he came back to his senses, Zhu Yunxi said: "My lords, so many people have sued the Kong family, this matter is no small matter. If these cases are true, then the Kong family..."

"However, it is still unknown whether the Kong family scrambled to do evil things, or someone framed them up and falsely accused them!

But after a saint, he shouldn't do these outrageous and inhuman things!You should and will not collude with bandits and bandits to rob and kill court officials! "

"The lonely king thought that the saint's reputation would not be damaged, and Yan Shenggong should not be burdened with infamy, so he bothered the two of you to go and investigate these cases, one by one, clearly and clearly. in vain!"

"Always return the Kong family's innocence!"
