Chapter 201 Eradicate the Kong family!Break the uniqueness of Confucianism!The way of science can raise its head! Listening to these accusations, even Kong Ne himself did not expect that his Kong family had done so many evil things.
There were many he had never heard of.
Just like Chen Han said, as Yan Shenggong, she never paid attention to the affairs of ordinary people.
There was even a time when he thought how could these little bastards bother him.
But he never thought that Chen Han would find them all.
In his understanding, these little people certainly don't take it to heart.
But for the people of Yingtian Mansion who are also common people, this is really the same thing.
"I really didn't expect this Kong family to be so hateful!"
"Even the old, weak, women and children will not be spared!"
"It's really hateful! You simply don't regard us ordinary people as human beings!"
"No! They are a big family that has been around for thousands of years. What do we, ordinary people, mean to them?"
"Hmph! No wonder the Marquis wants to reason with them now, so he has to take care of this family!"
"Yes! Saint Kong was kind to scholars and common people, but his descendants are harming us, which is simply an embarrassment to their ancestors!"
"Eradicate them!"
"Yes! Eradicate them!"
"It would be a disaster to keep such a family alive!"
The scholars also felt resentful after hearing the cries of the common people.
This is simply lawless.
By this time, they all knew that the Kong family was doomed.
This caused public outrage.
Only then did they realize how powerful Chen Han was.
At first everyone felt that Chen Han was just messing around this time.
Facing a family with thousands of years of foundation, he actually thought of taking him down alone.
This is simply like a worm shaking a big tree.
But now I think about it, Chen Han not only made Kong Ne speechless, but now he also succeeded in making all the people despise the Kong family.
If this continues, they believe that it won't be long before all the people will know about the evil deeds of the Kong family.
If such a reputation spreads, the reputation of the Kong family will definitely be destroyed.
Now they are beginning to worry about their future.
Especially the scholars who came from various prefectures to Yingtian Mansion to take the exam felt even more uncertain about their future.
If the status of Confucianism is suppressed, why should I take the exam?
You might as well go back to farming.
Lan Yu and the other generals who were watching below were gloating about his misfortune.
They have long disliked these scholars.
Just because of their words, they made things difficult for these military generals.
But I didn't expect that they would be dealt with so badly by Chen Han today.
Even their leader, Kong Jia, was pushed to the ground and rubbed.
This scene made many generals look happy.
It's just that they didn't see how ugly Zhu Yuanzhang's face looked at this time in the stands.
As a person with a strong desire for power, Zhu Yuanzhang has always kept all power in his own hands.
He can remove even the position of Prime Minister, so how can he allow places in Qufu that are beyond the jurisdiction of the government.
Places beyond the jurisdiction of the government mean that one's rights are out of reach.
But it was actually the Kong family that snatched away their power in Qufu.
This Confucian family actually set up a private court in their own mansion?
What Zhu Yuanzhang knew was that there were some officials within the Confucius Mansion who wanted to help the Confucius Mansion manage internal files.
But these are civilian officials and cannot participate in local administration.
But now after listening to the complaints of these people from Qufu, he realized that there was actually a private court within the Confucius Mansion.
This court not only imitates the court of the imperial court, but also has complete instruments of torture.
Good guy, what is this Kong family doing? Do they think that Qufu, or even the whole of Shandong, belongs to their family? Even as the people below spoke more and more, he also heard that in Qufu, in addition to his Dagao and Ming Dynasty laws, there was actually the so-called Confucian method.
This Confucian law is the law formulated by the Confucian family themselves.
Once any local people violated their laws, they would be taken to the Kong family and tried in private.
This is absolutely not tolerated by Zhu Yuanzhang.
Sure enough, Kong Ne himself felt frightened after hearing what the people said.
There are some things that the emperor must not hear.
In particular, in order to maintain their authority, the Kong family made the surrounding areas of Qufu and even the entire Shandong area aware of the power of the Kong family.
They use their own Confucian methods to punish those who oppose their own family.
This set is indeed useful.
Even if the local officials knew about their family's mistakes, they tried their best to cover it up in order to protect the saint's face.
It's just that Kong Ne didn't expect that under Chen Han's operation, people around Qufu could actually escape from his family's control and run to the capital.
He now finally knew why Chen Han sent Jin Yiwei to sneak to Qufu, because when ordinary officials arrived in Qufu, even upright officials could do nothing under the intimidation of their own families, let alone go against their own families.
Many officials in Shandong were even members of the Confucius family.
They are each other's horns, and they have long made the Shandong area monolithic.
But today is really the end.
After the emperor knew what they had done, he would not let them off lightly.
……
above the stands.
Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth as he listened to the cries of the people below.
Only today did he know that the Qufu Kong family was not only hateful, but also turned the entire Qufu into their own territory.
Within this territory, they can do whatever they want.
"Good! Very good! It's really good! We have always felt that no matter how bad the Kong family is, they still appreciate the kindness of the court, but now it seems that is not the case at all. If it weren't for Chen Han, how could we know that the family of Saint Kong was so evil? .
good!It’s really good! "
What kind of emperor is Zhu Yuanzhang? He is an emperor whose heads are rolling with just one sentence.
If so many civil servants can be killed, why can't the entire Kong family be uprooted?
Looking at the expression on his father's face, Zhu Biao knew that the Kong family could no longer keep him.
But as Chen Han said, there is really no need to protect this family.
Such a family simply deserves to will not live if you do your own evil! ……
On the podium.
Chen Han had been keeping Kong Ne under his custody and listening to the complaints of the people.
When the people had finished speaking, Chen Han asked Kong Ne loudly, "Yanshenggong, did you hear this? This is what your Kong family did.
This is the virtue of your Kong family!
You guys are really awesome, really awesome! The laws of the imperial court are nothing but empty words in your eyes.
You set up private courts to control the life and death of local people.
The children of ordinary people have become the targets of your wanton violence.
You guys are really awesome! "
Kong Ne's face was pale.
After forcefully breaking free from Chen Han's hand, he knelt down on the podium and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, whose face was ashen in the stands.
"Your Majesty! This was all done by Chen Han. We can't believe it. This is their one-sided statement. We can't believe it! Moreover, even if the Kong family is at fault, these crimes are not worthy of death! "
Zhu Yuanzhang watched from the stands and said coldly: "If you can't believe what they say, I have plenty of time to send people to Shandong to investigate!
Do you dare to bet with me?If the person I find still says this, I will chop you into pieces. If it is different from what they say now, I will let you go. How dare you? "
hiss! !
When the bet was brought out, Kongne was stunned.
Bang! !
Konneri knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen is wrong! Wei Chen is wrong! The humble minister would rather give away millions of Kong family's property just to atone for his sins to the people of Qufu!
Your Majesty, please visit the Kong family once! ! "
After Chen Han heard what Kong Ne said, he laughed loudly: "A crime does not lead to death! What a crime that does not lead to death! Do you think these are the only crimes of your Kong family?"
Kong Na asked loudly: "Chen Han, do you really want to kill the saint's bloodline?
How can millions of Confucian scholars let you go? You have to think clearly. Don't you leave no way out for yourself? "
Hahaha……
Chen Han laughed. He looked at the scholars and officials below and asked loudly: "My colleagues and the scholars below, do you really think that the Confucianism of Saint Kong can only be passed down through blood? Let me ask you, are we who are not of the blood of Saint Confucius really not inheriting Confucian thoughts in every bit of our lives?
If you think about it carefully, what is the core of Confucianism?It is benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom, trust, forgiveness, loyalty, filial piety and brotherhood. In our daily life, which day is not used all the time in the north? Take His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty as an example.
Your Majesty often says that he is a commoner in Huaiyou. This is not forgetting his roots, and it is the best way to repay his parents. This is great filial piety; Together with the founders of the Republic of China, we resisted the violent Yuan Dynasty and continued the rule of the Han Dynasty. We supported the building in the general area, turned the tide before it fell, and saved the people from fire and water. This is great benevolence, great righteousness, great loyalty, and great wisdom. "
Zhu Yuanzhang was very moved when he heard Chen Han's words.
I thought about my parents again. The tragic situation back then was indeed like what Chen Han said. If I was unfilial, how could I go begging on the street and ask kind people to give me a piece of land to bury my parents.
As for the fellow villagers who gave him land to bury his parents, when Zhu Yuanzhang became successful and famous, he also granted that family a title.
Because Zhu Yuanzhang never forgot to be grateful.
Then Chen Han said loudly again, "During the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Bei's benevolence in leading the people across the river, Guan Erye's loyalty in riding a thousand miles alone, and Zhuge Kongming's dedication and sacrifice to death, none of them are down-to-earth practices of Confucian benevolence, justice and etiquette. Zhixin? It is precisely because we Han people have never forgotten the teachings of Saint Confucius that we can have the idea of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism engraved in our bones.
It was precisely because of the support of these thoughts that there was a naval battle at Songya Mountain, where hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians threw themselves into the sea and died for their country; Only then did Wen Tianxiang have the loyalty to die rather than surrender to the barbarians! On the contrary, it is your Kong family who surrendered to the Sui Dynasty during the Sui Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty after the Tang Dynasty, the Jurchen Empire after the Jurchen Empire, and the Meng Yuan Dynasty after the Meng Yuan Dynasty came. I have never thought of repaying you, this is unfaithful and unjust The Confucius family in Qufu relied on their family background to abuse the people and violated the benevolence taught by the sage Confucius. This is unkind and unfilial.
Those who are unfaithful, unjust, benevolent and unfilial like you are truly unworthy to be descendants of Saint Confucius.
It is simply the greatest tragedy that Saint Kong has a bloodline like yours.
People with lofty ideals all over the world have already imprinted the teachings of Saint Confucius into their minds.
They serve the country with loyalty, benevolence, courtesy, and humility. They are the true inheritors of the spirit of Saint Confucius.
On the contrary, you, the Kong family, are completely unqualified to be the successor of Saint Kong.
Shouldn't the Kong family be eradicated like this? Do we still want to keep the reputation of continuing to harm Saint Kong? Saint Kong was so glorious and great, the only stain is that there are a group of descendants like you.
I think even if Saint Kong is alive, he still hopes to eradicate such embarrassing descendants like you. This is the greatest respect for Saint Kong. "
Ordinary people think so too.
They will understand if they think about it.
If I were Sage Kong, I would definitely not want to have such descendants. It would be too embarrassing.
Chen Han looked at the people below and shouted, "Common people, do you think it is true or not?"
The common people all turned into monstrous anger: "Yes!"
This sentence gathered the resentment in the hearts of hundreds of thousands of people.
"Eradicate them!"
"They don't deserve to be called the descendants of Saint Kong!"
"Yes! Eradicate them!"
This is their greatest recognition of what Chen Han said.
Chen Han opened his hands and said to the emperor, the officials, and the scholars, "All of us have inherited the thoughts of Saint Kong in our bones.
His glory has never been dimmed,
Each of us is the best inheritor of Saint Confucius. On the contrary, it is the Kong family. As long as they exist, they will be the greatest insult to Saint Kong.
Every one of you is objecting to my approach to technology, but I want to tell you,
I am engaged in science and technology, but I have never thought about opposing Confucianism, being loyal to the emperor and loving the people, serving the country and guarding the family, being diligent and frugal, benevolent and humble, This in itself is the greatest and most beautiful quality of us Han people. These things are given to us by Confucianism.
And what am I against? What I object to is that you scholars cannot agree on anything but reading.
Have you ever thought that Confucius advocated teaching without distinction.
He wants to be inclusive.
He proposed that among three people, there must be a teacher. He wanted to tell every scholar not to boast or be arrogant.
Everyone has different talents.
Common people are good at farming, and businessmen are good at doing business, so why should they only know how to read? Saint Kong had brought this church into full play more than 1000 years ago. On the contrary, we, more than 1000 years later,
Still living with the attitude of Confucianism being the first,
This is a blasphemy to the spirit of Saint Confucius.
Even Sage Kong himself did not dare to say that his knowledge was the greatest and he did not dare to stop learning.
On the contrary, you all think that the Four Books and Five Classics contain everything, and are unwilling to include anything new.
May I ask if you are worthy of the teachings of Sage Confucius? You keep saying that Confucius is the most holy teacher, But he only used the old man as a sign.
Forgetting the real teachings of the old man is nothing more than profit, and it is nothing more than using the Tao of Confucius and Mencius as your moat to crowd out other knowledge.
Now I want to break this habit in front of His Majesty.
Confucianism must be eradicated, and the uniqueness of Confucianism must be broken.
The way of science must absorb each other's ideas from Confucianism, and we must never engage in scholar-only theory.
In the future, officials will definitely not be selected only from the imperial examination. "
