Chang Yu stepped into the door, and at a glance, he would be lit up everywhere, and the pavilions and pavilions were lined up one after another, and he suddenly felt a lot of emotion in his heart, knowing that Confucius was just three grass houses.

But after hundreds of years of repeated expansion, especially in the Ming Dynasty reached its peak, that is, today's scale, nine into the courtyard, covering an area of seven hectares, nearly 500 houses.

It is said that this palace is magnificent, that palace is ox fork, in fact, in this era, in addition to the palace, the largest and highest specification is the Yansheng Mansion!

There are nine courtyards in the Confucian Mansion, and each gate is very particular.

For example, the screen door is only opened every time the emperor is fortunate or the edict is read, and the major sacrifices are opened, and for example, the lobby is a place to meet officials or read the holy decree, and the second and third halls are places to receive officials of the fourth rank and above.

Kong Yinzhi arranged to receive Zhu Yihai and Chang Yu in the lobby.

The tea is soaring, the atmosphere in the lobby still looks weird, Kong Yinzhi and Zhu Yihai greeted each other politely, Chang Yu looked extremely unsociable, his eyes swept around the lobby, and sometimes stared at Kong Yinzhi and a few people who were covered in hair.

"What are you the Zhixian Kong?" Chang Yu raised his hand and pointed at the thin middle-aged man.

"Xiaguan Kong Zhenkan"

The middle-aged man hurriedly got up and arched his hand, and the beads of sweat on his forehead dripped down in large pieces.

The people in Dongchang are not good at stubble, not to mention that this big eunuch has to pick bones in eggs in normal times, not to mention that there is a civil unrest at this time, how can he not be afraid.

"I have heard the name of Kong Zhi County for a long time when I was in the capital" Chang Yu seemed to be smiling, Kong Zhenkan was slightly excited: "Xiaguan, Xiaguan ......" I didn't know what to say for a while, but I was secretly happy in my heart.

But how did he know that Chang Yu was extremely disgusted with him, the person in front of him looked polite and polite like a well-educated person, but in fact he was a soft bone, in history Li Zicheng just went north to break the capital, at that time there was a thief in Shandong, this goods knelt directly on the side of the road to recognize the thief as the master, and dedicated ten tribute horses and one thousand taels of silver.

"You're very good, Ben Du remembers you" Chang Yu smiled slightly, Kong Zhenkan's expression could not hide his joy.

Chang Yu's eyes were fixed on Kong Yinzhi at this time, and his disgust in his heart was even worse.

Because as the Ming Dynasty, which was the most favored to Confucius, he really failed too much, and it can even be described as shameless.

Li Zicheng broke the capital and just called the emperor, this goods hurriedly enshrined the dragon seat of the Emperor Yongchang of Dashun in the Confucian Mansion, knelt down to accept the letter of Dashun Yinxin, and offered food and horses, ironically, Li Zicheng entered Beijing in March, and in February he also wrote to the court for the eldest son Kong Xingxie to ask for a second-grade crown dress, and at that time it was really when the thief army went north to burn his eyebrows, the court did not delay for a moment to send the crown clothes to the horse, but a month later people began to worship the Emperor Dashun.

What's even more ironic is that Emperor Dashun has not been able to supply for a few days, and the Tartars have entered the customs, so there is a first entry table.

"Yan Shenggong, you really have a good family!" Chang Yu hated it very much in his heart, but he said it lightly.

Kong Yinzhi couldn't hear the good or bad of this for a while, I don't know if he really praised him or insinuated that there was such a thing in the Confucian Mansion recently, but he just arched his hand and said: "I am ashamed of my old decay."

I was thinking in my heart, whether this eunuch was passing by or the emperor was specially dispatched, but this civil unrest was only a few days, and the reaction of the capital was too fast, and it was necessary to send such a big eunuch.

"You don't have to be ashamed, you just have to tell the Governor how to solve this matter?" Chang Yu sneered and looked at the table with his finger: "This matter can be big or small, at present, the war in the north has just subsided, and if there is a riot of the people when everything is in ruins, the court will be very passive, and the emperor will be very unhappy, how can the Confucian family, who has always been known for its benevolence, force the people to rebel?" ”

Damn, it's really a powerful character, Zhu Yihai watched the little eunuch's personality change since he arrived at the Confucian Mansion, and his eyes suddenly became murderous when he spoke, and he was very surprised in his heart.

Kong Yinzhi also panicked a little when he heard this: "This matter is not the unkindness of the Confucian Mansion, but it is actually someone who deliberately bewitched and used this as an excuse to gather a crowd to make trouble" said and glared at the bearded man standing at the door...... Li Muxian.

"What do you mean by this, isn't it wrong to say that the Confucian Mansion is called the Holy Mansion, sitting on 6,300 hectares of fertile land (1.08 million acres), but there have been saints' actions, this natural disaster is endless, the people are wandering and the people are not living, Confucius Mansion really wants to watch them starve to death?"

Li Muxian gritted his teeth and said, but Kong Yinzhi was shocked and angry, needless to say, the reason for his anger was needless to say, he was surprised that this reckless man spoke with a crepe.

"But that's not a reason for you to rebel!" Kong Yinzhi rebuked angrily.

"We haven't rebelled yet, we just want to beg for food and want to live, if we don't have a way to live, hum, it's the opposite" Li Muxian snorted coldly.

"Bold" Chang Yu angrily reprimanded: "You guy, just now outside the city, the governor couldn't bear you, you entered the city and were so arrogant, you rebelled when you opened your mouth and closed your mouth, do you really think that this governor can't kill you?" ”

Li Muxian looked up to the sky and laughed: "Although the rivers and lakes are chaotic, the morality is not endless, I Li Xiao Heavenly Hall nine-foot man asks for the life of the people, and takes saving the common people as his own responsibility, although he is still glorious in death, if you have the courage, you will kill me, so that the Lu Wangfu and the Confucian Mansion will lose their trust in the world, and the rumors are true!" In fact, the rumors are not false, Yan Shenggong, your Confucian Mansion has been cultivating for hundreds of years."

"Presumptuous!" Kong Yinzhi trembled angrily and lost his bearing, grabbed the teacup and threw it over, Li Muxian flashed his head sideways, and sneered.

"Come on, pull out and cut it for Bendu" Chang Yu shouted angrily, but he secretly laughed at this shameless thing, and gave himself the name of Xiaotian.

Zhu Yihai shouted! Hurriedly stopped Chang Yu, and said in a low voice: "Chang Gonggong is angry, don't let Lu Wangfu lose his trust, if you really kill him, I'm afraid that the situation will be difficult to calm down, and it will become more and more difficult to clean up."

Chang Yu accepted it when he saw it, and angrily reprimanded Li Muxian: "If you don't hide your mouth, the governor will tear your mouth first."

Li Muxian snorted coldly, his expression was empty, and Wu Zhong, who was outside the lobby door, lowered his head silently, he couldn't hold it back.

"Don't pay attention to this guy, Yan Shenggong continued to say how he plans to solve this matter" Chang Yu forced Kong Yinzhi to look: "This governor once heard that there were hundreds of chaotic people in the city who were surrounding the gate of the Confucian Mansion to make trouble, but now that they are gone, aren't they all arrested?" ”

"The day before yesterday, there were fake monks pretending to be gods and ghosts to gather hundreds of chaotic people...... Kong Yinzhi was interrupted by Chang Yu as soon as he spoke: "Yan Shenggong has ever seen ghosts and gods?" ”

Eh, Kong Yinzhi was stunned, the little eunuch's question was sudden and inexplicable, so he shook his head: "I haven't seen it."

"I haven't seen you, how do you know if he's true or not, Bendu asked you where those people went, I didn't ask you if you were a god or a fake ghost!" Chang Yu shouted angrily, and scared everyone in the hall with his palm.

Kong Yinzhi was afraid and angry, the dignified Yan Shenggong was polite when the emperor came, but this gelding dog blew his nose and glared at himself, but he also knew that the little ghost was difficult, not to mention that this little eunuch was a well-known killing god, so he held back his anger and said: "After the city is closed, it will be surrounded by soldiers, and it will be divided into some rice and grain, and it will disperse!" ”

Holding the grass, Zhu Yihai next to him was shocked, Yan Shenggong, who was unbeatable in the past, was obedient to this little eunuch's training, and his eyes were opened.

Chang Yu sneered: "Just drink to quench your thirst, they are just afraid that you will close the city and besiege it temporarily, if you open the city to try, you can close the city for ten days a day, can you close the city for a year and ten years, too, the city will not starve you to death for ten years, but what about the other people in the city?" ”

"Yes, this is not a long-term method, and it is not a way to always be locked up in the city, it must be solved, and the longer the delay at this time, the more detrimental it will be to the reputation of the Confucian Mansion," Zhu Yihai echoed Chang Yu and said.

"However, the Confucian Mansion is really embarrassed by the demands of the chaotic people, and I also ask the prince and the factory lord to show the way in this matter" Kong Yinzhi said with a wry smile.

"Before the governor entered the city, I listened to the three requests put forward by the chaotic people, nothing more than grain relief, reduction and exemption of field rent, exemption from taxes, the first two things are not difficult for you to do in the Confucian Mansion" Chang Yu knocked on the table: "There are some things we know, and no one finds fault on weekdays, but now we are forced to do this, and I can't hurt my muscles and bones if I spit out a little bit, otherwise I will always be scolded by people and I won't be able to sleep."

Kong Yinzhi was slightly embarrassed: "It's not difficult to open a warehouse for disaster relief, but this is a reduction or exemption of field rent, I'm afraid that they will have to make an inch in the future."

"When the national disaster is over, we will fall into the trap because we are rich and unkind, but if they get an inch in the future, they don't know what to do, who dares to come to Hu at that time and send troops to suppress it, there is a reason and they don't have the face to say anything" Chang Yu snorted coldly and glanced at Li Muxian angrily, and then said: "This matter is still okay for the prince, why can't the Confucian Mansion do it."

Yes! Kong Yinzhi was taken aback: "Yanzhou is also ...... to the palace."

Zhu Yihai shook his head: "The palace is still safe, but there are also rumors of the Confucian Mansion in Yanzhou, this king is the people, and has issued a notice to appropriately reduce or reduce the land rent, after all, the current national disaster is at the head, the court is thin, we can contribute as courtiers, and we will get better after these two years......"

Tut-tut, look at the consciousness of others, there is no harm if there is no comparison.

…… It's so embarrassing, Kong Yinzhi and Kong Zhenkan glanced at each other, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

"However, even if you agree to reduce or reduce the land rent, the tax is not something that the Confucian government can call the shots, and if they are not allowed, they will inevitably have to use the topic to play" Kong Xingxie on the side couldn't help but interject.

Chang Yu really wanted to go up and slap him, and the adults talked about what the children were talking about, but he just pouted: "The Confucian Mansion only needs to accept the first two, and the third one will be handed over to the governor."

"This matter is very big, can the factory supervisor allow me to discuss it with my clan before making a decision," Kong Yinzhi groaned slightly.

"Naturally, but the Governor reminds the Emperor that if they do not receive a reply by noon tomorrow, they will take radical action, and in order to calm the situation, the Governor advises the Confucian Government to accept these two conditions."

Before noon tomorrow, in such a hurry, Kong Yinzhi frowned, beckoned Kong Xingxie to whisper a few words, and Kong Xingxie left in a hurry.

"The third condition of the chaotic people, how is the factory governor going to deal with it?" After Kong Xingxie left, Kong Yinzhi asked, because as his son said, even if he agreed to these two conditions, if the third article was not met, they would still make trouble.
