Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 442 Undercurrents surging
However, they dare not confront the emperor's science head-on.

After much deliberation, Kong Yinzhi finally came up with a solution.

Isn't science completely different from Confucianism?Now those who study Confucianism hard for many years in a poor window and look forward to fame and fame must also worry about the impact of science on Confucianism.

That being the case, wouldn't it be enough to let them make trouble in private, and let the emperor know that the status of Confucianism is unshakable?

If it wasn't really impossible, they wouldn't even dare to do this indirect method.

After all, since the Northern Song Dynasty, the Kong family has been a respected family. Others may have to intrigue in the ups and downs of their careers. If they are not careful, they will be kicked out of the officialdom and even lose their lives; , Enjoy the glory and wealth!
That is to say, when the dynasty is changing, show up, and the last "Biaowen" is just.

That's all they need to do.

Of course, Kong Yinzhi at this time didn't know that if the original historical development was followed, when Jianlu first entered the Central Plains, he not only published the "First Entry Biaowen", but also fawned on Jianlu.

At that time, Zhu Ming, who could say that he was so kind to the Confucian family, was still there, and when Jiangnan was still resisting Jianlu everywhere, he expressed the Confucian family's willingness to return to Jianlu, saying, "All nations look forward to the new rule; Gan Gang Zhong Zheng, Jiu Zhonghong, the benevolence of the reform, leads the land to return, and the whole world celebrates it. Gongwei His Majesty the Emperor, inherits the heaven and the emperor, and uses virtue to appease the people, looking forward to the admiration of sages and learning, tending to stumble and fear the future; admiring the glory of the emperor Zhuo, the admiration is deep..."

If it's just this, Kong Yinzhi is similar to other leaders in the history of the Kong family.Afterwards, they also explained to the outside world that this was to preserve Confucianism, and they had to do so.

However, in the following year, Kong Yinzhi issued an order to shave his head again, and Kong Yinzhi led the tribe to shave his head first, and played the "Memorial on Shaving His Head" to Jianlu.

There is a saying in "The Book of Filial Piety Kaizong Mingyi Chapter": The body, hair and skin, are received by parents, and dare not damage them. This is the beginning of filial piety.This is the words in the Thirteen Confucian Classics, but Kong Yinzhi thought it was fart.

It is true that there were barbers in ancient times, and there was a need to repair hair.However, if you shave your hair like a money mouse and change your clothes, you will completely look like a barbarian. This is completely abandoning your ancestors, and it is tantamount to recognizing the barbarian as your father.

This kind of thing, as long as it is influenced by Confucianism, even if it is not read, it cannot be tolerated.Because of this, Jiangnan, who originally didn't resist Jianlu very much and thought it was just a change of dynasty, immediately set off a surging and vigorous anti-Qing movement.

However, as a descendant of Confucius, the representative of Confucian culture, Kong Yinzhi, the contemporary Yansheng Gong, immediately responded to the order of shaving hair and making obedience easier. I have to say that this is absolutely ironic, and we can no longer use the preservation of Confucian culture as an excuse up!
In later generations, when Japanese pirates invaded the land of China, the Kong family once again performed the "glorious" tradition of serving the thief as their father.

All in all, in fact, just one sentence: The Confucian family is not qualified to represent Confucianism at all!
What the Kong family cares about is only their own prosperity and wealth!

And only when their prosperity and wealth are threatened, they will take all kinds of actions with no lower limit.

On this plane, although there is no Jianlu to rule the Central Plains, there is a scientific way, which is interpreted by the Confucian family as a blow to the status of Confucianism, which will threaten their prosperity and wealth, so they are determined to do something. Let the way of science be promoted smoothly.

Of course, Emperor Chongzhen still didn't know about this matter.

The Kong family themselves did not dare to directly write a letter to communicate with Emperor Chongzhen, but sent people privately to encourage those scholars who were studying hard, especially those who were old and it was not easy to transform.A turmoil of scholars has begun to brew in the cold wind!

………………

At the same time, in the lobby of Duke Wei's Mansion in Nanjing, a large group of dignitaries from the Ming Dynasty were sitting, all of them with serious faces, talking about something angrily, and it was very lively.

Sitting on the main seat is Xu Hongji, the current Wei Guogong, who is not in good health and doesn't speak much, mostly other people are talking.

He glanced at the people in the hall, including Zhao Zhilong, Uncle Xincheng who had just been withdrawn from the garrison in Nanjing, his eldest son Xu Yunjue, Zhang Guobi, Duke of Baoguo, Zhang Gongri, Marquis of Longping, Li Zushu, Marquis of Linhuai, and Sun Weicheng, Marquis of Huaining , Tang Guozuo, Marquis of Lingbi, Liu Zuochang, Marquis of Anyuan, Xu Hongjue, Marquis of Yongchang, Deng Wenyu, Marquis of Dingyuan, Chang Yingjun, Uncle Xiangcheng, Zou Cunyi, Uncle Daxing, Liu Yunji, Uncle Ningjin, Yiyuan, Bofang Nanhe, Mengxiong, Uncle Dongning, An Chengbo Zhang Guocai, Luo Zhongbo Huang Jiuding, Cheng Anbo Guo Zuoyong and others.

At this time, Xu Hongji would never know that after his death, after his son inherited the throne of Wei Guogong, together with the nobles of the Ming Dynasty present, they all surrendered to the Jian captives who went south.

Of course, even if he didn't die, it's probably about the same.In itself, birds of a feather flock together and people are divided into groups!
As far as the moment is concerned, what they gathered together and discussed so livelyly was not to revitalize the military equipment, but for their own interests.

"That bastard Ma Shiying came to Nanjing, it's definitely a trick to sell dog meat, talking about suppressing thieves, I'm sorry!"

"That's right, in Fengyang Mansion, there are several other mansions, as long as he occupies the place, what are they doing!"

"If you don't take the initiative to attack with a strong army in your hands, you are supporting the bandits' self-respect. This Marquis wants to be impeached!"

"Impeachment is useful. Didn't you see that Sun Chuanting did the same thing? Don't you know what's behind it?"

"What the hell is that guy going to do? To take us to the knife, is it worthy of the first emperor?"

"That is, when our ancestors shed blood and sweat to earn this family business for us, was it easy?"

"Actually, let me tell you, when he copied his home and became the Duke of the State, he already showed signs of it! I don't believe that Duke Cheng would rebel if he was out of his mind?"

"That's right, in our Great Ming Dynasty, when did such a thing happen? It's purely an excuse!"

"We must come up with an idea about this matter, otherwise, Ma Shiying, a bastard, will enter Nanjing, and our life will be difficult!"

"If you have any idea, then just tell me, Ma Shiying brought an elite teacher here, what's the matter?"

"Isn't this just a discussion? If I want to make an idea, I've already said it!"

"Say it so loudly, I thought I had an idea!"

"What do you mean? I already knew it, because the land in the east of the city is not convinced, right? If you want to find fault, just say it!"

"Damn it, you think I'm afraid of you, you're a Marquis, isn't I? Come on..."

"..."

Xu Hongji listened to the people in the lobby, arguing like a vegetable market, and he still looked a little honorable.Most importantly, he couldn't hear any constructive suggestions from these loud people at all, and finally became impatient, and immediately slapped the table hard.

"Clap clap clap..."

The sound was very loud, even though there was a lot of noise in the lobby, the sound of slapping the table was very clear.

Therefore, everyone stopped talking, and looked at him after hearing the sound, and the lobby fell silent.

Seeing this situation, Xu Hongji had a stern expression on his face, and said with a serious look: "Everyone is gathered together to deal with the upcoming things together, not to quarrel. Whoever wants to quarrel, leave Xu's mansion and go alone Let's make a noise in the street!"

Wei Guogong is the most prominent among all the nobles. With the glory of Xu Da when the country was founded, and the love of the emperors for Wei Guogong, most of the honors in Nanjing are headed by Wei Guogong.

At this time, when he said this with anger, the others did not dare to expose their scars and curse each other, waiting for Wei Guogong to continue talking.

Among the nobles, it is naturally impossible to be united.This is the case in Nanjing, and it is the same in the capital.

For example, Cheng Guogong, who was ransacked by Emperor Chongzhen, had been fighting fiercely with other nobles around the time of Jiajing.

At this time, Xu Hongji felt a little headache when he saw that he was controlling the situation, so he asked: "Ma Shiying is at Fengyang Mansion, mainly to check out hidden households and measure land, including military settlements. Where are your families going?" How about these aspects, I don’t think it needs to be said.”

When he said this, he felt a little tired, so he rested and took a breath before speaking.

In the lobby, it suddenly became quiet.

These nobles present here, you look at me, I look at you, they all have serious faces.

Most of the nobles among them have been handed down since the founding of the country.Generation after generation, whether it is annexing grain fields, accepting donations, or hiding hidden households, they are the best in Nanjing.

In the past, this would not be a problem!

After all, on the Nanjing side, the Nanjing defense that holds the military power is all in charge of these nobles.And as the Xungui Group, it has won the trust of the emperors of all dynasties. Therefore, even the most unobtrusive civil officials, or the censors, will go around them, and they are rarely impeached.

But in this Chongzhen Dynasty, there was nothing before, it was always normal.However, since the 15th year of Chongzhen, the situation has changed suddenly.

Although it is said that there is no influence on the Nanjing side, the nobles on the capital side were forced to donate and their homes were ransacked.Today, when dealing with the Xungui Group, he is not soft at all!
The investigation of hidden households and the re-measurement of land in the north also affected the nobles of the capital.

Under the emperor's feet, those nobles cooperated obediently in the end, and no one caused trouble.

In this regard, it may be due to the example of Cheng Guogong, and there may also be reasons for the rampant factory guards. In short, the nobles of the capital are very useless!

Their nobles in Nanjing are not reconciled!
Compared with the capital, the nobles in Nanjing are richer, and the emperor is far away, which also makes them less awed by the sudden change of Emperor Chongzhen.

If Ma Shiying wanted to come to Nanjing to infringe upon their interests, it was absolutely impossible for him to submit obediently.Even if there is honor or enmity between each other, they all put aside for the time being and gathered in Duke Wei's mansion to discuss countermeasures.

At this moment, they were all looking forward to it, waiting for Wei Guogong to make up his mind.
