It is quite an honorable thing to be named by the emperor to stay in the work, but at this time, Kong Daofu can only smile bitterly, the emperor's expression is obviously not good-looking, this playful look makes him a little embarrassed, as if he has opened people's hearts and put the darkest part in the sun.

"Does Kong Daofu know why I left you alone?"

The body trembled slightly, and Kong Dao bowed and said: "Because the minister insists on moving the capital......

Zhao Zhen put away his playful expression and shook his head seriously: "That's not right! ”

Seeing the official's serious expression, Kong Daofu said worriedly: "Because the minister has repeatedly insisted? ”

Zhao Zhen smiled: "Knowing that you can't do it is really a gentleman's style, what's wrong?!" “

Kong Daofu really didn't know anything, so he could only say helplessly: "The official family is stupid, and he really can't think of anything wrong." ”

Zhao Zhen sighed in disappointment: "Because of your stupidity, you know that you are being used and still be so persistent, this is even more stupid!" ”

Zhao Zhen's words pierced Daofu's chest like a sharp arrow, revealing the little selfish thing in his heart to the world.

trembling and kneeling: "The minister is ashamed of the expectations of the official, but what the minister said is true, although there are villains who take advantage of the minister, but the minister does not regret it!" The matter of moving the capital is the opinion of Taizu, and the danger of Xijing is indeed like the gateway of the Central Plains! ”

Zhao Zhen suddenly found that he also had a time when he looked at the wrong person, this old man's stubbornness did not come from those money, but really wanted to let the Great Song Dynasty move the capital.

"And what are the chests of gold in your mansion for?"

At this time, Kong Daofu became upright: "Qi Guan family, there are more than 3,000 taels of gold in those boxes, which is equivalent to about 300,000 yuan of Emperor Song Tongbao, and the minister plans to use it in the academy!" ”

His words made Zhao Zhen interested: "Oh? The academies of the Great Song Dynasty have been everywhere, from Mongolia to universities, from children to young people, there are books to read, and there are teachers to pass on, how can you still prepare to build academies? ”

Kong Daofu sighed slightly: "Your Majesty is the first to rule the country, ordinary people can naturally afford to go to school, but the poor people don't dare to go to school even if they don't need money...... There are also some children who can read, but books, pen and ink, paper inkstones, all kinds of money ......"

This old man, Zhao Zhen doesn't know what to say about him, it's right to insist on his own point of view, accepting other people's money is used to settle those children who can't afford to go to school, even if it is used by others.

Zhao Zhen suddenly raised his voice: "Kong Daofu! Kong Daofu! I don't know whether to praise you or scold you, you are not suitable to be a courtier, only suitable to preach and teach in the academy to solve doubts! ”

The old man showed a relieved expression: "The official family thinks that the old minister is suitable, and the old minister will go wherever he goes." ”

This is to be a teacher, this is to teach and educate people, the old man has not been promoted much in his life, even now he is still a small Longtu Pavilion to be systematized, not even a university scholar, Zhao Zhen really doesn't know how his official is doing.

"Are you willing to exchange the future of the descendants of the Kong family and even the entire family as a bargain? I let the eldest descendant of the Kong family get the hereditary title of replacement, but from the day you get the title, your Kong family will withdraw from the court forever, and future generations will not be allowed to enter the court! ”

Hereditary titles! Never get in!

One is incomparably glorious and incomparable in the world, and the other is that the future is bleak and will never be able to turn over, these two conditions make Kong Daofu extremely entangled, and the official's proposal is like a fruit thrown by the devil, salivating and asking for human life......

Seeing Kong Daofu standing there fighting between heaven and man, Zhao Zhen didn't care, and no one knew how to choose at this time.

Sancai stepped forward to refill the tea, Zhao Zhen picked up a cup and pointed at Kong Daofu: "Give tea to Kong Shi, don't worry, this matter is related to the century-old foundation of your Kong family, but you have to think clearly, otherwise your forty-five generations of grandchildren will become unfilial sons." ”

The more he said this, the more difficult it was for Kong Daofu to choose, and Zhao Zhen continued to tempt: "If you agree, I will crown your eldest son of the Kong family as the Holy Duke of Yan, and the hereditary repudiation will be with the country!" ”

Another sledgehammer smashed down, Kong Daofu's cheeks trembled slightly, Yan Shenggong, what a name this is, the duke is not an ordinary title, second only to the prince! is even higher than the marquis, plus the name of Yansheng, this ...... This...... This is a reward that has never been seen before or since!

But Kong Daofu knew that once he got this reward, it would be equivalent to turning the Kong family into a relative of the Great Song Dynasty, a relative in name only! Thinking about what happened to his relatives, Kong Daofu hesitated a little.

"Does the official family mean that none of the descendants of my Kong family can enter the office?"

Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "That's right, you can't enter the office, but the treatment is rewarded according to the title, since it is the Yan Shenggong, then it must be paid every month according to the treatment of the duke, I know that your Kong family doesn't care about these things, but have you ever thought that you can guarantee that the descendants of the Kong family in the future will be outstanding people?" There will never be a day of decline? ”

Seeing that Kong Daofu was slightly loose, Zhao Zhen put down the teacup in his hand and said: "You are really disappointed by me, although I don't let the children of the Confucian family enter the ranks, but I didn't say that your Confucian family can be idle like this, teaching and educating people is the duty of the Confucian saints. I will not deprive you of your identity as a teacher of the Confucian family, and it would not be better for the Holy Duke of Yan to continue to be responsible for worshiping the Confucian Holy Master, and to teach and educate people? ”

Kong Daofu suddenly realized that this was a great opportunity given by the official family to the Confucian family in Qufu!

Confucius was posthumously named King Wenxuan by Tang Xuanzong Li Longji from the middle of the Tang Dynasty, and his eldest son was the Duke of Wenxuan. Until the Great Song Dynasty, there was no longer any title, and now Confucius is still the king of Wenxuan, and the eldest son is still holding the title of Duke Wenxuan.

If he is posthumously named Yan Shenggong and passed down from generation to generation, the entire Kong family will endure for a long time, even if it is left for eternity!

What if you don't? The descendants of the Confucian family should not have been involved in the government politics, they have worked hard in the court for most of their lives without changing their original intentions, and the results they got are not what they are now, helpless, powerless, and ungained!

Thinking of this, Kong Daofu suddenly knelt on the ground, and bowed down with his hands raised high: "The heart of the official family is pitiful, the heart of benevolence and righteousness is as high as the sky, Kong Daofu bows to thank the emperor!" ”

The old man finally gave in, Zhao Zhen smiled and helped him up and said: "The Kong Qing family doesn't have to be like this, although the first lord of Yansheng Gong is a false title, but your Kong family wants to become the master of my Great Song Dynasty!" Under the rule of the Great Song Dynasty, how about all the mountain chiefs of the academies from the virtuous people of your Confucian family? ”

Zhao Zhen's words reached Kong Daofu's heart, education has always been the Confucian family's best ability, and teaching and educating people is also the Confucian family's favorite profession.

"The official family knows people and makes good use of the old ministers, and they are impressed!"

Kong Daofu has already reflected, it turns out that all the plans of the official family are to use the knowledge and prestige of the Confucian family to support the academies and education of the Great Song Dynasty, but they don't want the Confucian family to become the most powerful person in the Great Song Dynasty.

Looking at his sudden realization, Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "Do you understand my hard work?" As the folk slang goes, the higher you climb, the worse you fall, if you Confucian students are all over the world and the court, will I still talk to you so casually? ”

Kong Daofu was suddenly shocked, although the official family in front of him was still smiling, but the killing intent revealed in his words made him cold, and he said tremblingly: "The old minister thanks the official family for its success." ”

Zhao Zhen waved his hand and said, "Go back and wait for the royal canonization!" The mansion of your Qufu Kong family is about to become the Yansheng Mansion, and the imperial court will send skilled craftsmen to build it. ”

Kong Daofu bowed and retreated, until he completely walked out of the Zichen Hall of the duet, and a gust of wind blew, and he realized that his back was already soaked this time......
