Chapter 210: The Strength of the Kong Family
How could Kong Yanjin expect that things would be so serious?
When I came out of Qufu, I thought there were millions of scholars behind me. Even if the emperor wanted to move the Kong family, he had to think about it.
However, they didn't plan to think about it at all.
It's an old punch, and after the fight, you have to put a hat of a thief.
The Zhai family is over, what will happen next?
Yuan Bin squatted down and said coldly: "Do you think that the things that your Kong family does that are harmful to the world can be hidden from the world? Do you really think that the emperor dare not touch you?"
The Kong family has always been proud of being a saint, professing itself as noble and pure in blood. No matter which dynasty or generation, they have extremely respected their status. However, behind their bright and beautiful appearance, there have been many dirty things.
If you want to take serious action, the Kong family can't afford to investigate.
Kong Yanjin's heart trembled and said quickly, "I am the decent Yansheng Gong. I am busy with official duties on weekdays, so I have no intention of taking care of business matters. Zhai Zongxi sells private salt in the name of the Confucius Mansion and colludes with bandits. I really don't know about it! This is because I am negligent in discipline and have the responsibility of inattention. Please tell the emperor that after I go back, I will make sure to rectify the Confucius Mansion and ensure that... this will never happen again..."
Now in this situation, he never dares to be stubborn again.
Since the Jinyiwei came prepared, that is to say, the emperor is going to use a knife against the Kong family.
Although he has always been arrogant every day after he claims to be Confucius, he really wants him to touch the Dragon's Scale, and he doesn't have the courage to do so!
The Kong family’s consistent principle is to talk about character in prosperous times, because... character is given by the emperor. Only when others respect you, Yan Shenggong, can you be qualified to talk about character. If you hold a knife around your neck...don’t you have a damn character!
During the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongols occupied the Central Plains. At that time, the head of the Kong family changed his name to "Ta Shibuhua" and volunteered to serve as a professor of Mongolian philology.
If such shameless behavior is interpreted as preserving the bloodline of the saint, then the next step is to occupy the land of the people, rape women, and manage human lives. This is a real crime.
If the emperor really wanted to investigate the Kong family and shake out all the dirty things in the past, the consequences would be unimaginable...
Now, in order to protect yourself, I can only sell my son-in-law.
Abandon the horse and protect the car, and abandon the car and protect the coach.
It would be better to put all the blame on Zhai Zongxi and blame himself for being in prison than to lose his life or even the entire Kong family.
As long as the Kong family does not fall, they will definitely make a comeback by relying on the sought after by scholars all over the world in the future.
Yuan Bin stared at him tightly, only to find it ridiculous.
It's already this time, and I'm still thinking about good things.
"Ten years ago, you, the Lord Yan Sheng, were impeached. Do you still remember?"
Kong Yanjin was a little surprised and then said, "I really can't remember what happened ten years ago..."
"So, do you want me to remember it for you?"
Yuan Bin waved his hand and said, "Take our Yan Sheng Gong to the torture room and serve all kinds of torture instruments!"
Kong Yanjin looked pale and waved his hand quickly, "Remember roughly... remember some..."
In the fifth year of Zhengtong, Nanjing Kedao censors jointly impeached Kong Yanjin to bully men and women, but the matter was then left alone.
These censors were also very traitorous. Seeing that the impeachment failed, they changed the charge and continued to impeach. This time the charge was "the palace beyond the system."
Over-the-counterfeiting is a serious crime, but the emperor always turns a blind eye. There are so many royal family members and vassals in the world, and those who have no over-the-counterfeiting officials?
When you want to deal with you, it is a serious crime to exceed the system. If you don’t want to deal with it, it doesn’t matter.
However, since officials are impeached, they cannot ignore it and ask about it. Some people need to be sent to check it out. If there is really a limit, just make a warning.
So, the three Yangs of the cabinet discussed for a while and sent the governor of Shandong to verify.
This verification doesn't matter. It was unexpectedly found that many crimes of the Kong family were committed, one was to set up a private prison hall, two was to rape more than 40 women, and three was to kill people with sticks and four lives.
The incident was a hot topic at that time. It was not that what happened to the Confucius Mansion, but that all scholars were accusing the Shandong Governor, saying that he should not stare at the Confucius Mansion, with ulterior motives and humiliating sages. The general meaning was that he was the most saint and the ancestors, so what happened to him?
Even if you make a mistake, you shouldn't check it!
Why? It’s because they are Yan Shenggong and the supreme saint master.
If you check the Confucius Mansion, you will be against the Supreme Sage and the scholars all over the world!
Under the huge pressure of public opinion, the last thing was left unresolved again.
Now that Yuan Bin mentioned it again, Kong Yanjin felt a little sad. It seems that the emperor is prepared, and this time he really can't escape...
Yuan Bin smiled victoriously and said, "I am the one who treats you here. If you ask you, just explain what you want. Otherwise, someone will remove your bones and crush them bit by bit. At that time, you will definitely regret your ancestors continuing your Kong family."
Kong Yanjin was frightened by this momentum and had long lost his mind, leaving only trembling.
Yuan Bin said again: "Also, the Zhai family has confessed that many robbers in the Confucius Mansion are crowing and stealing. Don't think that the tenants who were beaten to death are already dead and cannot speak out. The people will not raise officials or investigate them, and don't think that there are people protecting you. They are just a group of useless scholars!"
Kong Yanjin wanted to refute, but he didn't dare, so he said, "This is inappropriate, why are scholars useless?"
Yuan Bin laughed and said, "A group of people who say something about fame and fortune are actually seeking officials everywhere and shameless people. To this day, do you still expect them to save you? Tell you the truth, the Jinyiwei who went to deliver your driving letters is still in Qufu. Guess what they are doing there?"
Kong Yanjin became more and more frightened, and his lips trembled: "What...what...what..."
Yuan Bin stared at Kong Yanjin and said, "Do you still need my explanation? Why can't your Kong family copy it? Let me tell you the truth. In less than a month, I will teach you that the Kong family will disappear!"
After hearing this, Kong Yanjin's eyes turned red. He couldn't help but rush towards Yuan Bin with his teeth and claws, shouting: "I'll fight with you!"
However, he has always been pampering and has no power to tie a chicken. It is ridiculous to rush up and fight to the death like this.
Bang!
A slap was slapped hard, Kong Yanjin slid under his feet, fell to the ground, blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, and a tooth was spit out.
However, compared to the severe physical pain, what he couldn't accept was the fear in his heart.
Is the Kong family really going to end?
No, two thousand years of accumulation, two thousand years of inheritance, the most sage and teacher of scholars all over the world, no, no...
