88: Confucius: Duke of Yansheng!? I will kill you if I say so! Zhu Yuanzhang was confused: How should we face Mencius?

Confucius’ explanation really shocked everyone.

Who would have thought that Confucius would explain his words in this way?

If it were an ordinary person, if someone else explained it in this way, he would probably be despised by everyone in the world!

But this person was Confucius, and everyone dared not question it, only doubting it.

“Confucius actually explained this sentence in this way? Could it be that our reading of the Spring and Autumn Annals was in vain!?”

“How is it possible! We are not wrong, and Confucius is not wrong either. Confucius must have said this specifically for the Duke of Yansheng.”

“The Six Classics explain me, and the words of Confucius should be interpreted by future generations!……It is really inappropriate”

“It is understandable that Confucius was angry because of the misconduct of Duke Yansheng. Moreover, Confucius’ words were all capable and it is normal that they are different from the interpretations of later generations.”

“……”

The scholars of the Five Dynasties were shocked by Confucius, but the common people felt that this Wenquxing was very much in line with their wishes.

He did not speak in a flowery manner, but he was ruthless towards the fat pig-like traitor.

Moreover, through the conversation, they also knew that this Confucius was the ancestor of the fat pig.

Kong Yinzhi painted the portrait of Confucius with a rat-tail braid, and the common people saw it.

Again, the common people have sharp eyes. They may be easily fooled, but they can definitely distinguish between good and bad.

They saw Kong Yinzhi’s nonsense and arrogance.

Therefore, they naturally had a good impression of Confucius’s sacrifice of his own relatives for the sake of justice….

Kong Yinzhi was stunned, his fat face flushed red, like a pig.

But he didn’t have the energy to argue, because Confucius was holding a brilliant sword and slashing at him.

“Ancestor! I am your descendant! How can we kill each other?”

Kong Yinzhi ran and jumped, and in fear, he actually exposed his inner thoughts.

Hearing this, Confucius stopped. He then remembered that he was Wenquxing, who could use the power of heaven to perform magical powers.

“well……”Confucius sheathed his sword and sighed,”I have not been active for so long that my martial arts skills have become rusty. I can’t even defeat a shameless kid in one fell swoop.”……Your Majesty, please forgive me for my poor performance.”

Zhu Yuanzhang and others were very puzzled when they saw Confucius stop. Could it be that Confucius wanted to let Kong Yinzhi go?

There were scholars and people from various dynasties who had the same idea as them.

“The Sage Confucius first said that Kong Yinzhi was a disloyal, unfilial and unrighteous person, but now he told the Lord of Heaven that he was incompetent. Could it be that he wanted to let this person go?”

“I don’t think so. Confucius’s previous explanation of”If you hear the truth in the morning, you can die in the evening” has a profound meaning. If you stop now, I’m afraid there are other reasons.”

“Even the so-called saints cannot escape from being close to each other. It is indeed a great wonder.”

“……”

Tiancheng Dynasty.

Chen Xun looked at Yu Qian thoughtfully and said,”Tingyi, what do you think?”

“In my opinion……”Yu Qian shook his head and said,”Kong Yinzhi will definitely die, and even Confucius will cut off all ties with his descendants!”

“How could it be so?” Chen Xun raised his eyebrows, his tone quite surprised,”Why do you think so?”

“Confucius’ explanation of”If you hear the truth in the morning, you can die in the evening” is actually very meaningful.”

Yu Qian said slowly and calmly,”Confucius’ words are too brief. People in later generations often use his name to cheat, why don’t they use Mencius’ words?”

“Furthermore, the scholars are actually not much different now. Before Your Majesty promoted universal education, they distorted the words of Confucius and drove Mencius out of the Mencius.”

“Confucianism like this deserves to be swept into the garbage dump of history! Judging from the presence of Emperor Hongwu and Emperor Yongle beside your Majesty, Confucius’ words are probably paving the way for future reforms.”

“after all……The Confucian school in the world actually produced Confucius and Mencius. It is most convenient for them to solve the problem from the root.”

Yu Qian’s conjecture made Chen Xun’s heart surge.

As a person influenced by Zhu Gaoxun’s new ideas, Chen Xun believed that Zhu Gaoxun’s words that the times are changing and the people need more knowledge points to liberate their minds were very correct.

Why was Zhu Xi highly respected in the Song Dynasty? In fact, it was a reflection and summary of Confucianism after the wars of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

The final result was that the emperor was required to be a saint and the nobles to restrain their desires, which indirectly consolidated the feudal rule.

In the words of later generations, it was: the era of Confucianism 2.0 began.

In the Tiancheng Dynasty, Zhu Gaoxun directly brought out the study of the mind in order to popularize education, and in it.

Zhu Gaoxun also abolished the system of burying people alive with the dead, strictly prohibited women from binding their feet, and so on.

In short, in Chen Xun’s heart, Zhu Even if Gao Xun was not an immortal, he was still a saint in his mind.

Although Zhu Gao Xun always explained that the School of Mind was not created by him but obtained by chance, Chen Xun never believed it.

He thought that his Majesty was low-key. He could obviously become the most holy teacher in the eyes of scholars all over the world, but he was unwilling to show it.

That’s why

Chen Xun was so excited after hearing Yu Qian’s statement.

If Confucius himself were to take charge, wouldn’t the popularization of education be much faster?

Haven’t those Confucianists always clamored and used the righteousness of Confucius and Mencius to resist? Now, Confucius is here in person, let’s see how you resist!

When everyone was surprised, Zhu Gao Xun smiled and said,”It’s okay, Confucius, you haven’t experienced the world for a long time, and it’s normal to be unfamiliar for a while.”

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Gaoxun calmly, as if thinking about something.

He remembered what Zhu Gaoxun had said, let all the philosophers be deified. Could Mencius be included in these philosophers?

Zhu Yuanzhang actually didn’t dislike Mencius. What he disliked was the saying that the emperor is more important than the country.

After experiencing so much and opening his eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang realized that his small peasant mentality was too serious.

The strength of a dynasty does need to be shared by the people.

But………He was a little embarrassed. If he were the deified Mencius, what would he say when they met?

We stopped worshipping you for a few years, and then started it again. This matter should be treated as if it never happened…….No matter what, Zhu Yuanzhang felt embarrassed.

But he changed his mind and realized that these people were working for his own Gao Yi, and his confidence returned instantly. Zhu

Di always paid attention to his father’s mood and laughed in his heart.

The expression on the old man’s face showed what he was thinking…….The one who can make the old man lose face is Gao Xun!

“why are you laughing?”

“I don’t!”

“I saw it, you kid, just wait for me. After this incident, I will have to discuss the matter of Fengtian Jingnan with you.”

Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Di’s expression and immediately brought up the old story in a sinister way.

Zhu Di immediately shrank back and wanted to refute, but he didn’t dare to speak…….

Just as Confucius was preparing to make the next move, Zhu Yuanzhang and his son had quietly engaged in a confrontation.

The scholars watching the light curtain realized at this time that this Confucius was actually real!

This Kong Yinzhi was really shameless!

For a time, the scholars cursed and clamored, and criticized the portrait of Confucius with a rat tail braid that he had made.

“This Kong Yinzhi presumes to be the descendant of Confucius. He is arrogant and domineering at first, and does not acknowledge his ancestors at the back. He is a scoundrel and truly shameless!”

“How could the hair ornaments of the Jiannu Tartars appear on the body of the Great Sage? Doesn’t this person know what propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame are?”

“Do you know how to criticize now? Confucius just said that this person is disloyal, unfilial, and unrighteous! Even Confucius said so, how can this person be a good person?”

“……”

Hongwu Dynasty.

Ma Xiuying looked at Zhu Zhanyu in her arms and said softly,”Yu’er, you must be careful in the future. People like this who have no bottom line should never be employed!”

“Grandma, I understand!” Zhu Zhanyu clenched his fist and said,”Father always said that no matter whether the cat is black or white, a cat that can catch mice is a good cat.”

“But my grandson thinks that such shameless people are not worthy of being officials! They will only bring disaster to the people and make them suffer!”

“Hehehe……”

Hearing Zhu Zhanyu’s answer, Ma Xiuying smiled and said,”Yu’er is really amazing. At such a young age, he understands so many truths.”

“It’s all because of your good teaching.” Zhu Zhanyu looked at the screen and said,”Mother also often taught me, your grandson, that I should learn more, watch more and talk less, so that I can tell what kind of person he is.”

“It seems that your mother, Yu’er, also has a very good temper!” (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

“Yes, my grandmother! My mother always said that my father was good in everything except taking a concubine. This made her worried, for fear that the people would say that she was a jealous woman.”

“Be sensible, be sensible!” Ma Xiuying sighed and said,”Next time we meet your father, we will talk it out with him.”

“No need, Grandma.” Zhu Zhanyu shook his head and said,”Grandpa said so, he advised, but father didn’t listen.”

“You are a good father in every way…….”Ma Xiuying sighed,”It’s because I inherited the Zhu family’s tradition of cherishing affection.”

The grandma and grandson talked for a while and continued to look at the sky light curtain.[]

This was the time when Confucius used the power of heaven to cast a spell.

When Kong Yinzhi realized that he had let the cat out of the bag, he was so scared that he avoided looking at Confucius.

Confucius was too lazy to say anything and just pinched the magic formula with his hands to capture Kong Yinzhi in mid-air.

“Ancestor! Ancestor! Please forgive me, I really didn’t do anything bad, and those portraits are all fake!”

“Spare you? Then I will be deeply sinful!”

After all the twists and turns, Confucius was really furious. He laughed coldly and said,”You bastards, you have enjoyed wealth and honor for a thousand years in my name. It’s time to return it to the people of the world!”

“Why is it so!? Why is it so, my ancestor!”Kong Yinzhi was terrified,”Isn’t it the right thing to inherit the glory of the bloodline? You are the Confucius Saint admired by the scholars of the world, and even the most holy teacher. What’s the big deal if the younger generation gets a little bit of glory from you? Isn’t this for the purpose of better worshipping you?”

Kong Yinzhi’s shameless tricks made Confucius laugh directly,”You bastard, do you think I don’t know what you did?”

0Please give me flowers0

“When the Jin people came during the Song Dynasty, you guys kneeled down to them. When the Mobei people came during the Yuan Dynasty, you kneeled down to them.”

“During the Ming Dynasty, the so-called Duke Yansheng bullied more than 40 women and children from decent families during the Chenghua period, and even killed dozens of people in public!”

“Still pretentious, thinking you are one of the three great families of the Ming Dynasty? I don’t even have the nerve to do that!”

“Now it is the Chongzhen Dynasty, and the imperial court has not yet fallen! You, a jerk, first submitted to Li Zicheng, and then prepared a portrait in advance, ready to kneel before the Jiannu Tartars! Where is your integrity? Where is the integrity that I taught you?”

“Don’t even mention my descendants. You are useless except for oppressing the people of Qufu and causing trouble for the people.”

“……”

Confucius became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and he told almost everything that the Kong family had done…….Kong Yinzhi’s face turned pale.

He couldn’t understand why his ancestors knew all these things so clearly.

This made Kong Yinzhi tremble all over, and he dared not imagine what would happen next.

At this time, Kong Yinzhi didn’t know that the people of the world……No, the people of the Five Dynasties were watching him and Confucius.

Otherwise, he would be desperate and want to die. Compared with being accused by Confucius in person, letting the world know how Confucius rebuked and scolded the Yanshenggong Mansion is a big deal.

Without Kong Yinzhi’s knowledge, all dynasties had completely exploded.

Kong Yinzhi personally acknowledged Confucius’ identity, combined with Zhu Gaoxun’s methods and Confucius’ personal rebuke.

These words were like a nuclear bomb, exploding among the literati and the people of all dynasties.

The people in the literati are not unaware of what the Kong family has done, but everyone still needs the signboard of Confucius, so they turn a blind eye to what the Kong family has done, or even beautify it.

And now that Confucius has directly lifted the fig leaf, it is undoubtedly a revelation to all the people in the Kong Mansion.���You deserve public execution under the sun!

“The Kong family had actually done so many evil things! ? I had previously thought that this was a kind family and I had always respected them!”

“Don’t mention it. Some time ago, I went to Qufu. I spent fifty taels of silver to enter the Confucius Temple and worship Confucius!”

“Fifty taels!? Isn’t this a lion’s mouth? It’s too arrogant.”

“This is nothing. Some merchants without any official title would spend no less than 50,000 taels to pay tribute! This is just the threshold.”

“The Kong family has such ability? Could he even sell official positions?”

“He didn’t sell the position, he was not qualified……But he can use his influence to pave the way for the businessmen. Even so, many businessmen who want to find a way have to queue up.”

“This Kong family deserves to be killed! So many evil deeds are simply outrageous!”

“……”

Unlike the scholars who were more concerned about the moral character of Confucius’ descendants, the common people could not help but cheer after hearing Confucius talk about the many sins of the Kong family.

In the light curtain, when Kong Yinzhi was confused, Confucius came to him with a pause.

“Today, I will clean up the family!” Kong Qiu said coldly:”All the guilty people in the Kong family, one by one, must not be allowed to enter the reincarnation!”

“Ancestors……”

Clang!

Before Kong Yinzhi could finish his words, a flash of sword light passed by.

Everyone saw Kong Yinzhi being beheaded by a sword, blood splattering and spraying in front of Confucius.

Confucius did not dodge, letting the blood splatter, and first said to the direction of the light curtain:”I think you can all see me, I am here to make a statement today.”

“In any dynasty, there is no need to establish the Yanshenggong Mansion! The so-called descendants of the Kong family shall not use the name of this old man to commit crimes! Otherwise, don’t say I didn’t warn you!”

Confucius’s bloodiness really surprised everyone in the world.

The Kong family servants who were pinned down next to them, although unable to move, had fear on their faces, and some were frightened to pee.

After saying this, Confucius saluted to Zhu Gaoxun,”Your Majesty! I, Confucius, have finished my business. Please forgive me for borrowing your words.”

“Hahaha!” Zhu Gaoyi laughed loudly and said,”Zhongni, you are my right-hand man. You can’t refuse my future education in this dynasty.”

“”I, Confucius, will not fail your trust!” Confucius bowed again, and then said:”Your Majesty, please deal with the Yanshenggong Mansion!”

After Confucius said this, the Yanshenggongs of other dynasties all fell to the ground with their eyes black.

They understood that from today on, the high status of the Kong family no longer existed!

“Good! Then I will do it.” Zhu Gaoyi nodded and said,”Today, I will listen to what Confucius said and abolish the Yanshenggong Mansion!”

“Where is the judge of the underworld!?”

As Zhu Gaoxun’s decree landed, Zhang Fu appeared.

“I am here!”

Zhu Gaoxun looked at the gate of the Kong Family Mansion in front of him and said,”Capture them all, and then judge their crimes in front of the people and scholars of the Five Dynasties!”

“”I will obey your orders!”

Zhang Fu took the order and left, accompanied by the jailer. Those who had never seen this scene were stunned…….The matter was not over yet, because Zhu Gaoxun made another move. What he said next directly made several dynasties boil over! Explode eight!.
