Chapter 1209 I just want to be quiet
When Yan Shenggong heard this, his face was full of embarrassment, and he looked at Wang Chengen with a little confidence, as if he wanted to say something, as if he wanted to argue again.

When Wang Chengen saw it, he immediately stood up with a flick of his sleeves. Although he was young, when he approached Yan Shenggong with a cold face, he was full of momentum, forcing Yan Shenggong to back several steps involuntarily.

"Under the whole world, there is the king's land, and within the four seas, there are all the king's ministers." Wang Chengen shouted coldly, "The Confucian mansion, how can Yan Shenggong be an exception? The Ming Dynasty treated the Confucian family well, and now they should also serve the country This is not to force you, but to give you another chance to the Kong family! In three days, if you don’t see Yan Shenggong set off for the capital in person, our family will definitely come to visit again! When the time comes, don’t blame our family for not being sympathetic Already!"

After finishing speaking, he strode out without looking at Yan Shenggong again.His subordinates followed suit, and after a while, only Yan Shenggong was left in the hall.

After the people from the East Factory left for a while, Yan Shenggong's subordinates turned back to the lobby.When they saw Yan Shenggong holding a piece of paper and standing there in a daze, they were all a little curious and asked questions one after another.

"Yan Shenggong, I don't know why the factory lord came here in person?"

"Could it be the same thing as last time?"

"Yan Shenggong, what is written on that paper?"

"..."

Yan Shenggong seemed very tired, waved his hand, and said a little weakly: "Go out, let me go out, let me be quiet."

Seeing him like this, several people wanted to leave immediately, but some seemed to be a little outraged and spoke again.

"Yan Shenggong, it must be that Dongchang is in trouble again?"

"Yan Shenggong, if you don't announce it to the world, you won't believe it. The scholars in the world don't make decisions for us!"

"..."

Hearing this kind of remarks, Yan Shenggong was shocked immediately, came back to his senses, and shouted sharply: "Go out, let me go out, I just want to be quiet? Is that okay?"

When he got so angry, these subordinate officials had to go out whether they voluntarily or not.Yan Shenggong doesn't say anything else, he just wants to be quiet, what else can you do?

After all these people went out, Yan Shenggong slumped on the chair and looked at the piece of paper in his hand.He also knew very well in his heart that once he went to the capital in person and reported to the court according to the content on this piece of paper, then it was likely that it would be implemented.In this way, half of the foundation that the Confucian Mansion has relied on for thousands of years will be dug away.Whether the Confucian Mansion can continue to maintain its prosperity and wealth in the future, there may be uncertainty!

However, if he didn't follow what was said on this piece of paper, the title of Lord Yansheng would definitely change hands.For myself and my descendants, not to mention enjoying the glory and wealth, even if they are stared at by Dongchang, they will not have a better life in the future!

One side is the foundation of the ancestors, and the other is personal glory and wealth, which makes Yan Shenggong extremely embarrassed!

The subordinate officials outside waited for a long time, and they all knew that Yan Shenggong must have encountered a very embarrassing thing, so they wanted to stay alone for so long!
Finally, at dusk, Lord Yansheng walked out of the hall by himself, seemingly very tired, and told his subordinates: "Get ready, I will go to Beijing to face the saint tomorrow!"

Now that he had made a decision, he didn't dare to keep the factory owner waiting, lest he offend the factory owner, so he decided to leave for the capital tomorrow.

Not long after, in an inconspicuous mansion, a servant quickly walked in and reported to Wang Chengen who was sitting there leisurely drinking tea: "Mr. Chang, Mr. Yansheng has announced that he will go to Beijing to face the saint tomorrow!"

When Wang Chengen heard this, the hand that had just picked up the teacup paused for a moment, then sneered and said, "For he knows current affairs!"

After finishing speaking, he drank it all in one gulp, put the teacup back on the table, sat up straight, and immediately ordered: "Spread the news, at least the scholars along the way will know that Lord Yansheng is going to Beijing to face the saint!"

After his subordinates took orders to leave, Wang Chengen stopped drinking tea and sat on a chair with his eyes closed to rest his mind. In fact, he entered the chat group and went to report the situation to Emperor Chongzhen.

Don't look at his confident look in front of his subordinates, he is still young after all, after reporting to Emperor Chongzhen, he reminded a little worriedly: "Your Majesty, what if he plays tricks then?"

When Emperor Chongzhen saw it, he didn't care. He just sneered and replied: "It's okay, it's normal for him to oppose scientific and technological knowledge, and I don't lack anyone who opposes it. But if he follows the proposal I explained If you come out, the world will be shocked!"

"Your Majesty is wise, this servant understands!" Wang Chengen felt relieved when he heard this.He was afraid that this Yan Shenggong would suddenly change his mind at the last moment. This kind of situation made him hard to guard against, in fact, he couldn't guard against it.Therefore, there is this worry that if the emperor blames him later, he will suffer from being dumb.

But now that the emperor has answered, even if Nayan Shenggong changes his mind in the end, he will not be blamed, so he is naturally relieved.

But Wang Chengen didn't know that there was another reason why Emperor Chongzhen didn't say it.The Kong family is used to enjoying good things in their daily lives. If you want him to feel that he will never have such a good life in the future, few people will be able to accept this change in life.If the Kong family had the backbone to do this, they wouldn't have enjoyed a thousand years of wealth.

In other words, although the Kong family is longer than any other dynasty, it is also under the power of the emperor, and the wealth that can only be obtained by submitting bravely!With the current high prestige of Emperor Chongzhen, it doesn't take too much trouble to suppress the Kong family.Not to mention, the popularity of scientific and technological knowledge has reached a certain level now, and it is not just for Yan Shenggong to speak out out of thin air.

Therefore, under the instruction of Emperor Chongzhen and the publicity of the factory guards, the news that Lord Yansheng was going to Beijing to face the saint spread among scholars as quickly as possible.

"Have you heard that Yan Shenggong came to the capital, there should be a book to play!"

"This must be for crooked talk, right? Yan Shenggong has come out, now let's see how the court will give an explanation!"

"I heard that Yan Shenggong promised the people of Fushe to support them and publish this memorial. Unexpectedly, now that Fushe has died down, Yan Shenggong has not given up!"

"Could Fushe not stop its efforts? Zhang Pu, the leader of Fushe, was exiled, and Hou Fangyu, one of the four sons, was confined at home. Fang Yizhi has now transferred to learn about science and technology. Who cares about this academic dispute? "

"..."

In addition to the voices of these people, there are also some people who remember the rumors from years ago.

"It doesn't mean that Yan Shenggong also agrees that scientific and technological knowledge is knowledge that benefits the country and the people. Why is he going to Beijing in a blink of an eye? What...why are you going to Beijing?"

"Clarify the rumors? Yes, it must be so, the way of Confucius and Mencius is the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty! How could Duke Yansheng give up this righteousness!"

"Yes, the previous stories must have been rumors. Now that Lord Yansheng knows about this, he must be angry and come to Beijing to ask for an explanation!"

"..."

A considerable number of scholars think so. Among them, many scholars, especially those who are older, are mostly scholars, and their enthusiasm is excited.In the towns that Yan Shenggong passed along the way, they all shouted that they wanted to go to Beijing with Yan Shenggong to discuss an explanation.

Scholars like them have given half of their lives to the Four Books and Five Classics. Originally, seeing the increasing popularity of scientific and technological knowledge, they were already a little bit suffocated.When I heard that the content of the imperial examination might have to be changed, I panicked completely.Now that Lord Yansheng came out to uphold justice, these people naturally jumped out to support him.

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty solved the border troubles in the north. Since last year, the imperial court ordered the streamlined troops in the various guards to carry out training to suppress bandits, and the whole world has become much more peaceful.In addition, the standard of living in the past two years has improved a lot unconsciously.After talking about it with their mouths, many old scholars really had to follow Yan Shenggong's car and come to Beijing at their own expense.

In this way, the news of Lord Yansheng's visit to Beijing to meet the saint spread more widely, and it became the biggest topic after the beginning of the eighth year of Chongzhen.It even overshadowed all kinds of news from various vassal states.

But one day, what was strange was that Yan Shenggong was on his way sooner or later, hiding in the car or in the post station, and did not show up at ordinary times.

For this situation, some people will wonder, but more people understand.Yan Shenggong just went to Beijing to ask for an explanation, not rebellion.I came out to meet everyone, and the crowd was excited. If something happened, it probably wasn't what Yan Shenggong wanted to see.

That's it, Yan Shenggong's car drove from Shandong to the capital, and there were more and more Suan Confucians following behind, good guy, when we arrived in Shuntian Prefecture, almost every better inn in every place would be full. The innkeepers and owners along the way were all looking forward to it, and the price went up before the people arrived.Wait for a herd of fat sheep to arrive and make a fortune.As a result, some Confucian scholars saw that they were about to arrive in the capital, but found that the money was not enough, so it was a bit tragic.

Of course, these are small details, and not many people will pay attention to these people who are not enough.

No matter how long Yan Shenggong walked, he finally arrived at the capital on this day.

The model of the world's scholars, the spiritual pillar, came to the capital. After hearing the news, Emperor Chongzhen sent Sun Yuanhua, the Minister of Rites, to meet him.In addition to the official ones from the imperial court, there were also scholars who were in the capital, or those who had rushed to the capital in advance, also rushed to the gate of the city to greet them.And those scholars who support scientific and technological knowledge, including those craftsmen, also have many good people rushing to watch the excitement.

All of a sudden, there was a sea of ​​people outside the gate of the capital city.And the restaurant near the city gate was full of seats.Of course, at this moment, all the topics of diners here are related to the matter of Yan Shenggong's entry to Beijing.

At such a time, Emperor Chongzhen did not give up the excitement, and went out of the palace in micro-clothes, acting as an audience in the private room of the restaurant.

Now he is quite low-key.But this is something that can't be helped, who made him show his face more in front of the people in the capital.Moreover, she has done a lot of things about going out of the palace in micro-services. A few times before, when she walked on the street, she was recognized by the common people.All of a sudden, the street was full of kneelers, which made him unable to do anything but go back to the palace.

For this reason, Emperor Chongzhen once said harsh words in private: "Wait for me to turn around and move the capital, and change to a new capital!"

As for whether this was a joke or not, even the servants and factory guards who heard it personally couldn't guess.

Now this time, Emperor Chongzhen stayed in the private room of the restaurant quite low-key, who didn't know, thought the emperor just wanted to join in the fun.But if you really want to think that way, it's really wronged him.If possible, he would rather play hide-and-seek with those concubines in the imperial garden than join in the fun.There is no other reason for coming out. The achievement value of buying out the photo is not enough. With so many opportunities, he has to come out to harvest a wave of achievement points to not lose money!

No, Emperor Chongzhen was just sitting in the private room of the restaurant, when he heard the system continuously beeping the reminder to obtain achievement points.He chose this location well, it was near the middle of the crowd welcoming Yan Shenggong.

Emperor Chongzhen had calculated in advance that when he harvested achievement points in the school field, the scope was not small.And the place where he is sitting now, in terms of radius, is actually as big as the school field.

No, when the two groups of people who support Confucianism and science get together, they will inevitably quarrel. They will say that science was created by the emperor, and those who support science will continue to contribute to their achievements.

When the achievement points were harvested in a "jingling" manner, Duke Yan Sheng also arrived.Sun Yuanhua, the Minister of Rites who was waiting, stepped forward to greet him immediately.It wasn't until this time that everyone saw Yan Shenggong appear on the stage.

However, Yan Shenggong looked a little haggard, while Sun Yuanhua looked energetic, there was a sharp contrast.Suddenly, someone reminded them, and it immediately spread to the crowd: Yan Shenggong represents Confucianism, while Sun Yuanhua is the middle figure of science. What is the mystery behind the meeting of these two people?
No matter what others think, in short, Sun Yuanhua, as Minister of the Ministry of Rites, welcomed Yan Shenggong in accordance with the etiquette system, and there was no cynicism, tit-for-tat confrontation, and bloody plots such as inside and outside the talk.

Of course, there are still similar rumors, but most of them are made up by those who watched from the sidelines.Under their suspicion, whether it is Yan Shenggong or the Minister of Rites, whether it is polite tone or eyes, they all hide a lot of secrets.Many people even went back and said that the battle between Confucianism, Taoism and science had already begun under this city gate.

One thing is actually true, if it weren't for the soldiers of Wucheng Bingmasi to maintain order, maybe the two big men didn't fight, and those scholars who were watching would fight first.

Emperor Chongzhen's harvest was worth it, and he returned to the palace a little distressed. This achievement value is much worse!It seems that it will be better to go out of Beijing in a few days!
Thinking of this, he made an order to summon Yan Shenggong early the next day without delay, as a token of respect.

Immediately, everyone's eyes were focused on tomorrow's morning. Many scholars didn't even plan to go to sleep, and planned to go to Fengtianmen Square early in the morning to wait for the news.

They were all very concerned, how would the emperor respond to Yan Shenggong's performance to the court?

　Fortunately, today is Friday, otherwise tomorrow's update would be a problem!
