People live in the Ming Dynasty, evil spirits are soaring into the sky

Chapter 190 The current Kong family has nothing to do with Sage Kong! The whole place was in an uproar! !
The reason why Chen Han was so angry was really because of the Kong family's kneeling.
Especially kneeling to the foreign race, which ruined the atmosphere.

The former literati were so high-spirited.

They always think about governing the country and bringing peace to the world, and studying is to benefit the people.

Although in the Song Dynasty, it was indeed very uncomfortable to emphasize culture over military affairs.

But I have to mention that among those literati, there are also many admirable big names.

Xin Qiji, Fan Zhongyan, Wang Anshi, Su Shi, Bao Zheng, Ouyang Xiu.

They lived in the Northern Song Dynasty. At that time, the Kong family had not yet knelt down to the Jurchens.

Therefore, the literati of that period were still high-spirited, and their ambitions were still to govern the country and bring peace to the country, to bring peace to the world with pens, and to set the course on horseback.

The same was true for the generals at that time.

Although they were suppressed by civil servants, they never gave up.

They rarely have the opportunity to make great achievements, but have they ever given up?

Because they all feel that loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness are the foundation of a person's life.

But since the Kong family knelt under the iron hoof of the Jin Dynasty, that is, the Jurchens.

Literati became more and more selfish.

Those clumsy literati seemed to have found the best endorsement at once.

They woke up immediately. Since even the Kong family, the representative of the world's literati, can kneel down, why can't I?

Just like the current social atmosphere.

It turns out that helping the elderly is a great traditional virtue.

But just because of such a blackmail incident, moral decline occurred for decades.

This is the influence of ethos.

The ethos has influenced countless literati.

From then on, they no longer regarded governing the country as their ideal, but became self-centered.

From then on, the world's literati could no longer match the elegance of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties.

Most of the poems written by the literati in the Southern Song Dynasty were sad about the autumn and sad about the spring. Most of them were about small countries and small families, and most of them were about singing about the wind and the moon.

It is indeed romantic and elegant.

But where is the atmosphere?

What is the fate of the country?

Their enthusiasm for caring about national affairs has been broken.

Turn to develop towards your inner self.

You can say this is the helplessness after the country's fall.

But after this kind of atmosphere was ruined, it really never improved again.

Then the Kong family knelt down on behalf of the Meng Yuan people.

Maybe I was a little hesitant about kneeling for the first time.

But the second time I knelt down it was much easier.

Especially within the Kong family, they would go to any length to flatter the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty.

Even a person like Kublai Khan who couldn't even recognize Chinese characters and couldn't speak Chinese could be named the great master of Confucianism by Confucians.

How has the character of a scholar been ruined?
Under the leadership of this trend, Confucian students have long given up on governing the country and ensuring peace.

It is very easy to betray the country's justice and national interests.

Today is the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.

But decades later, when the Ming Dynasty fell, the ridiculous scenes of those literati were so ironic and sad.

At that time, Qian Qianyi, the Minister of Rites, was known as the leader of the literary world.

That is to take the lead.

And what kind of leader did he lead?
The water he brought was too cold and his scalp itched.

The high-ranking officials in the capital knelt down at the city gate in the heavy rain to welcome the Jurchens' iron hoofs.
How similar is it to the scene where the Confucius family knelt at the gate of the Confucius Mansion to greet the Jin Dynasty Jurchen Wanyanbu?

Is it really a circle of five hundred years?
Even in Liaodong, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty had just risen.

A scholar named Fan Wencheng even took the initiative to surrender to Nurhaci.

You know, he is a descendant of Fan Zhongyan, a famous official in the Northern Song Dynasty.

When Fan Zhongyan fought tooth and nail to resist the invasion of Xixia Party members in Ningxia, had he forgotten the glory of his ancestors?
Yes! He forgot!

The literati at that time had forgotten the integrity they should have.

They only remember their future.

They only have one thought in their minds: I don’t have a job in the Ming Dynasty anyway, so why should I be loyal to the Ming Dynasty?

I can be loyal to a foreign race.

Anyway, I’m not the only literary person who kneels down to survive.

Everyone is thinking about their own future.

So he became a veteran of the four dynasties of Nurhaci, Huang Taiji, Dorgon and Shunzhi.

How smoothly he did it and how neatly he knelt.

No amount of backbone, integrity, or a man's dignity can compare to his own future.

How sad.

So much so that the literati during the Manchu and Qing Dynasties became slaves, not to mention their integrity.

The literati of the Ming Dynasty were just fighting for their own benefit.

By the end of the Ming Dynasty, those literati had betrayed their national interests.

Thinking of this, Chen Han once again shouted to the people below: "The third biggest sin of the Kong family is that they have been replaced since the Yuan Dynasty!"

When these words were spoken, everyone was already filled with anger, but upon hearing this, they were immediately shocked.

Even Kong Shangxian and others below were shocked after hearing Chen Han's words.

Where does this come from?

This is simply the most powerful arrow.

If this is confirmed, it will completely wipe out the current Kong family.

The scholar already respected Chen Han very much at this time, so he asked below: "Master Imperial Envoy, where do you come from?"

Chen Han replied: "Please listen to what I have to say slowly!"

In the fifth year of Wokuotai Khan of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, the Mongolian cavalry captured the capital of Jin and Bian. The Jin Dynasty granted the title of Yanshenggong Kong Yuancuo to the Yuan regime. Kong Yuancuo was still granted the title of Yanshenggong, but the title of Kongzhiquanzhi was changed to the order of Qufu. .

Beizong Kong Yuancuo had no children, so he was succeeded by Kong Zhen, the grandson of his younger brother Kong Yuanzui.

Kong Zhen attacked and granted the title of Holy Duke Yan in the first year of Xianzong of the Meng Yuan Dynasty.

Later, Kong Zhi, the son of Kong Zhiquan, the Holy Duke of Qufu who had been enfeoffed earlier in the Yuan Dynasty, led the Kong clan to write to the emperor, saying that Kong Zhen was not a descendant of the Kong clan, but was born from Kong Zhigu, the son of Kong Yuanqi, and that his biological mother had already passed away. She remarried to the Li family in Qikou, and Kong Zhen once took the surname of Li.

Kong Zhen was dismissed, and for more than thirty years after that, until the reunification of the Yuan Dynasty, there was no more Duke Yan!

I would like to ask, why did the Kong family say that he was not a direct lineage but a side branch after Kong Zhen had already held the title for several years.

The Kong family, which has always been rigorous, was so sloppy in this matter?

Furthermore, why had there been no Duke Yansheng for thirty years, and then suddenly when Kublai Khan was in power, he was granted the title of Duke Yansheng, not Kong Zhi?
Contact Yuan Haowen and Zhang Derang, the great Confucian Confucians, and it will be clear to flatter Kublai Khan to become the great master of Confucianism.

This is nothing more than a trick used by the ruler of the Yuan Dynasty to exchange the civet cat for the prince.

Because Kong Zhu, the real orthodox Nanzong of the Confucius family at that time, once summoned Kong Zhu to the capital. Kong Zhu humbly gave way to the eldest son of Qufu!
Is it really that simple to give up?

Logically speaking, his identity should be that of Duke Yan Sheng, because even a ghost can see clearly that the bloodline of the North Sect is chaotic, while the bloodline of the South Sect is pure.

Why let it?
That’s when Kong Zhu understood that Kublai Khan’s call to him was just intentional. Believe it or not, Kong Zhu just said at that time: It’s disrespectful to refuse a humble minister!

The swordsman next to him will chop off his head immediately, and then charge him with assassination. "

When Chen Han said this, everyone suddenly realized.

My goodness!
This is completely the most correct inference.

These facts are all placed in the history books.

And Chen Han was not talking nonsense.

Because later generations have reached some conclusions through genetic technology.

Modern DNA testing shows that among the more than 1200 DNA tests of the so-called descendants of Confucius, there are 3 male parents! !

The gene for the inner pore is c3, the outer pore is q1a1, c3 is the Mongolian gene, and q is the Middle Eastern gene.

c3 can only be traced back to the Yuan Dynasty, and q can only be traced back to the Tang Dynasty. However, neither c3 nor q1a1 are traditional Han genes, which means that they may not be from the Confucius family.
