Kong Yuqi raised his head suddenly: "You can't do this, our Kong family is the leader of the people in the world, and if you do this, you will offend all the scholars!" ”

"If those scholars are just like you, they only think about themselves, and if they offend, they will be offended, and they will dare to come to the door?" Although Cheng Xiaolian said this, the soldiers over there did not hesitate, and they had already started to take people according to the names on the roster.

Kong Yuqi also knew that heroes would not suffer immediate losses, and shouted loudly: "Fourth brother, fourth brother, you stand up and say something, even if you can't get along with your eldest brother, you can't watch others ruin the Kong family!" ”

Kong Yuyu didn't hide behind at this time, and walked out slowly: "When I left home, I couldn't get used to the practice of the Kong family, Kong said to be benevolent, Meng said to take righteousness, benevolence and righteousness didn't dare to do, I was only willing to guard these statues to do daydreaming, people give you a little face, you don't know what to say, you don't offend people, but the reputation of your ancestors has made you lose everything!" If all the literati in the world followed your example, what would become of the world? It is a shame for the world to have a leader in the literary world like you. ”

"Do you want to be the ancestors and the ancestors? If it was destroyed by the imperial court long ago, you look at this hundred miles of Konglin, look at the books and ancient scrolls in our family, all of which were left to us by our ancestors. ”

Kong Yuyu got off the horse suddenly, walked up to Kong Yuqi and grabbed him by the collar: "The ancestors left these things to teach future generations the truth of being a human being, not for you to worship them as treasures!" If everyone in the world understands benevolence and righteousness, the ancestors will laugh at Jiuquan even if they are forgotten, and putting those things away like you is simply a tyrannical thing! ”

The guards next to him had already rushed into the Confucian Mansion while speaking, and Kong Yuqi suddenly grabbed Kong Yuyu's sleeve: "I admit that I did something wrong before, if you let them let the family go, the Kong family can't be wiped out!" ”

Kong Yuyu said lightly: "The Kong family will not be exterminated, but it will no longer become your protective umbrella and a tool for collecting money, from now on, whether you write books and speak, or cultivate the land, the Confucian Mansion has nothing to do with you!" ”

Kong Yuqi gritted his teeth with hatred: "I know, it's you, you did all this, you are just for the position of the head of the Confucian Mansion, but let me tell you, without the support of those clan elders, you, the head of the family, will definitely not be able to sit still!" ”

Kong Yuyu laughed: "Don't worry, those clan elders will also be invited out of the Confucian Mansion with you, it is estimated that the ancestors are already tired of seeing your deeds, and they will hide their books instead of preaching and receiving karma, and they will be rare and valuable, under the nine springs, I will see how you explain to the ancestors!" ”

It took a whole day to arrest the people of the Confucian Mansion, and these people were sent to Henan overnight, and some stubborn old men said that they would not leave their homeland, and finally Cheng Xiaolian let them be buried with their homeland.

But if you wait for the people of Confucius to slow down, the literati in the world will have to turn the sky upside down.

At that moment, Cheng Xiaolian immediately announced that the Confucian Mansion would be renovated and the Confucian and Mencian Academy of the Ming Dynasty would be established, and all the classics in the palace would be printed by the state and sent to the world, so that everyone in the world could read the books of the sages and learn the way of the sages.

Before Cheng Xiaolian rushed back to Beijing, this matter had begun to ferment, and when Cheng Xiaolian's army had just arrived in Beijing, the city gate was already full of scholars: "We are willing to speak for the world, the affairs of the Confucian Mansion, the strange injustices of the ages, the thousand-year-old inheritance, almost ruined, I hope Your Majesty will restrain the horse from the precipice and return the Confucian Mansion to the Kong family, otherwise we will not be able to kneel for a long time!" ”

Cheng Xiaolian snorted coldly: "I have printed the classics of the Confucian Mansion and sent them to the world, everyone in the Confucian Mansion has been driven out of the border of the Ming Dynasty, and the Confucian Mansion has been transformed into the Daming Academy, it is too late for anything, if you are willing to kneel, kneel and kneel." ”

Saying that, he turned his horse's head and entered the city, he now understands why many emperors are choked by the scholars of the Tai Academy every time, these scholars have no merit at all except for hard bones and straight tempers, and if someone fanned the flames, they dared to stand in front of the emperor and question, many things were never investigated, and they did not study the good or bad things, just a few people moved their mouths, they dared to write a petition in a letter.

Cheng Xiaolian muttered and scolded: "A group of single-thin artillery creatures only know how to receive information, and they can't think independently!" ”

Yang Youcai laughed in the back: "The minister doesn't quite understand why His Majesty is so angry today. ”

"I thought I was one of them, and I wanted to wake them up."

Yang Youcai was stunned, of course he couldn't understand what Cheng Xiaolian was talking about in later generations, at that time he still felt that he was enthusiastic and full of a sense of justice, but he had never really done something, and now he turned his head and found that he only paid blood and vitality, how did he do things?

The matter of Confucius Mansion has also caused huge fluctuations in the land south of the Yangtze River, and many scholars originally had their hearts set on the Ming Dynasty, and when they heard about this matter, they immediately believed the words in the text of the pseudo-Ming Dynasty, and the emperor was afraid that the descendants of Myanmar would come to destroy my Ming Dynasty.

They didn't see that the Confucius and Mencian Academy was far more useful than the Confucian Mansion, and they couldn't see how many people would benefit from the printing of those classics in a distant place, and even no matter what accidents happened to the Confucian Mansion, these classics would not disappear in the long river of history.

They just saw the symbol of the people in the world, the Confucian family was made home, and the thousand-year-old inheritance of the Confucian Mansion was destroyed.

Immediately, many scholars found the Zhou Dynasty and expressed their willingness to support the Zhou Dynasty to pacify the pseudo-Ming, and even willing to donate their family wealth.

The monarchs and ministers of the Zhou Dynasty were naturally overjoyed, and they didn't expect that the court of the Ming Dynasty would also have a faint move one day, and if they didn't seize this opportunity, they were afraid that they would be sorry for God.

Even the people around Qufu felt that Cheng Xiaolian had destroyed Qufu's cultural movement and looked coldly at the Ming army.

And there was also a period of turmoil in the court of the Ming Dynasty, but Cheng Xiaolian's prestige was too high, and the high-level people were all raised by him, so there was no big mess.

Yang Youcai smiled: "Your Majesty has suffered such a big loss for the first time since he led the troops to the battle, which is also rare." ”

Cheng Xiaolian seemed to say to himself: "At first, I felt that some things would not be too late to be done until the world was pacified, but the time was too little, if the seeds could be sown early, the Ming Dynasty would be able to stand on top of the world one day earlier, they couldn't see that I had destroyed a Confucian mansion, but I scattered those classics to the world, I only felt that I had destroyed the world's literary fortune, and the world's literary fortune was still destroyed by me?" If it were a few years later, who would talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality, and at that time, I would not be able to save the world's literary fortune if I wanted to. ”
