"If you arrest me, those elders will reward you with a few words at most and reward you with some silver, but if you release my own official, I will give you 300,000 taels of silver, as well as the fields in the south of the Yangtze River." Gong Dingyu used a huge amount of silver to bewitch, hoping to escape, as for whether these people still had the life to take his silver afterwards, it was not in his consideration, if he went to Jiangnan, I would wait for Confucianism to rebel a lot.

"Humph! Dog traitor, do you think we are all traitors like you? Chen Zhi sneered.

It is undeniable that the huge sum of 300,000 taels of silver is indeed amazing, if you can really get it, it is inevitable to have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime, there is no doubt that such a temptation is very moving, but it is a pity that Gong Dingyu made a mistake in his wishful thinking, Chen Zhi could not be so bewitched at all, let alone 300,000 taels, it is one million taels, three million taels, Chen Zhi dared to say that he would not blink his eyes.

Not to mention that the whole city has been blocked, let's just say that the person who came today is not Chen Zhi's own person, and the instructor is still behind, does he dare to think about it.

Gong Dingyu saw that 300,000 taels of silver, this little policeman was not tempted, and in fright, in order to survive, he immediately offered a higher price.

"Five hundred thousand taels! No, a million taels! ”

Millions of huge silver, many young little policemen gasped, they were shocked, and some even couldn't control themselves, and there was a slight greed in their hearts, and their faces were revealed.

Feeling those deep breaths, Chen Zhi frowned, and shouted: "Dog traitor, betraying the country for glory is damned, no amount of money you can buy your dog's life, don't say that I won't let you go, even if I let you go, just a dog like you, betray this master today, betray that master tomorrow, don't die today, you will die tomorrow, you can't escape, accept fate!" Today the whole city is blocked, the trains are suspended, where do you run. ”

Chen Zhi's words are not only for Gong Dingxiao, but also for those policemen who can't help but be greedy in the face of millions of huge silver, this is a warning, but also a deterrent, so that all the little policemen can be clear-minded!

Gong Dingyu sneered and said: "What we and other Confucian scholars do, how can you Qiu Ba understand, this is called a good bird choosing a tree to perch, and this is called being propagated for my famous Chinese religion." ”

Chen Zhi looked at his target today, he had to speed up, the Council of Elders seemed to have other tasks, and he was followed by a person dressed in black and from the committee.

In the end, Gong Dingyu is also an official of the imperial capital, and he can come to arrest him with a sign, which means that the elders have approved the order, so after the family members were killed, everyone else was already trembling in place and did not dare to resist, but only a woman suddenly appeared.

"Master, surrender quickly, the water surrounded by the four corners is impassable, and we can't run away."

Gong Dingyu's face was hideous: "Run, why do you want to run, I am a talented man in the court, but I was used as a vase, even those officials were used, they don't know how many times they ridiculed the official behind their backs, why, how many years have I read poetry and books, in order to be an official and enjoy the glory and wealth, but look at this imperial capital, this is no longer the imperial capital of our scholars, how many scholars can't get along in the imperial capital, they can only go back to their hometowns, and they can't even borrow for the night. Confucianism is the pillar of the country, I don't know the Four Books and Five Classics, how to write articles, to foreign foreign adults, to measure the national strength of China, to form a friendship with the country, can not blindly brute force, belligerent will die, so if you want not to die in the country, you can't be warlike, you must learn to send the time, disband the army, in order to let the countries understand the sincerity of our country, hey, you look at the present, how smoky this country is, even this kind of black skin, dare to hit my door, can't punish the doctor understand, we are scholars, if there is an emperor, Then the emperor must only govern the world with our scholars, we have nothing to do with murder, nothing to do with dereliction of duty, even if the army is defeated, it can also be blamed on the generals, that is called the country of respecting Confucianism, and recently, what has become of Confucianism! ”

"Master, why bother, once a son of heaven and a courtier, our family is a person from the previous dynasty, can't you trust it is not a very serious thing, lord."

Gong Dingyu stood there, looking at the Jurchen woman who was pregnant with her only offspring, not knowing what to say.

Gong Dingyu's surrender was inevitable, but when the others blocked the gate and the house raiding team began to sort items, a man in black appeared, but he wandered around his study for a while, and when he was not long, he came out with a scroll of letters and said, "This is it." ”

About this volume, later generations included in the selection of materials for the life of Confucius and the second sin, in the excerpts of Ming Confucianism.

The content is, of course, the last struggle of the Confucian scholars of the Ming Dynasty, who found that due to the great geographical discoveries and scientific progress, these Confucian scholars could no longer appear as distributors of wealth.

Just as China wants to become rich and powerful every time, if the price of this prosperity is the marginalization of these Confucian students, they will desperately resist.

These internal letters are a stark and open explanation of how these vested interest groups are plotting a counterattack, which also provides a political basis for future political, cultural and economic activities to exterminate Confucianism.

As a certain fat man said, this people know what is right and wrong, as long as the people killed are higher than their status and worth, they will secretly rejoice in their hearts, today the emperor killed so-and-so, the people of Hangzhou cheered, if Ming'er killed another so-and-so, the people of Hangzhou still cheered.

It is understandable that ordinary people do not understand these things, and these things themselves are extremely complex, even if they are people in the circle, they are not specialized in research, and they cannot do a completely careful study.

A large-scale execution can be terrifying, and of course, according to the original intention, it is actually better to follow the kind of secret execution that is more Sven than Sven in later generations.

Killing a corrupt official or a foreign spy at a time will make a Confucian scholar cry like a dead father, killing ten at a time, they will curse in the most vicious language, even if you objectively protect him, kill a hundred at a time, they will start howling all over the streets Why can't these corrupt officials and foreign spies of universal value be better.

But if you kill a thousand at a time, the faces of these Confucian scholars will immediately change.

Because killing one person is a precision killing, and it will not affect you, killing ten belongs to a gang, killing a hundred belongs to the cleaning, but killing a thousand, people will never mind killing you more.

These public executions of only 100 people were executed, but they found all the Confucian scholars who could be found in the imperial capital, which was originally for them, saying that it was too much to kill chickens and monkeys, but the hostility was definitely appropriate.

"Back then, the government said that it was difficult, the funds must be used to develop science and engineering, build an atomic bomb, and the university should be inclined to science and engineering, changing the situation that 90% of the students were liberal arts students, and those liberal arts students were also repetitive disciplines with a very low level of blood, which was useless, but what about the faces of those people? These people are already China's tumors, cancer cells, and if you look at how gentle they are, they are actually annihilating China's hope little by little. ”

"So it's best to let these cancer cells get out of the way on their own."

"Gong Dingyu, Feng Quan, Chen Mingxia and other hundreds of people, traitors to seek glory, are national scum, and have committed many crimes, in the name of the Council of Elders and the people, it is now decided to carry out capital punishment in front of the people of the world, and what they have done must be explained to the people of the world!"

The gallows was quickly erected.

When people have identity attributes, honor is easier to reflect, such as chivalry, military honor, literati festivals, etc., the Spring and Autumn aristocracy has a sense of honor, that is, they have to nod their face, if they don't know what to do, they will ruin their reputation, and their influence will be reduced.

With the emergence of the imperial examination system, the gate valve system was broken, the officialdom gradually became a pan-commoner, the scholar class gradually collapsed, and at the same time, the officials gradually lacked the sense of honor of the scholars.

To put it simply, through the imperial examination, a commoner becomes an official or a general, his status is different, from the oppressed one to the pressure one, but when he falls, the descendants may not be able to go up, and they will return to the original bottom, which is not happy, and must seek benefits. The imperial examination system provides a channel for class circulation, and who wants to go down? The corrupt stratum has gradually grown into a corrupt clique, and the more the system is hollowed out, the more it has intensified.

This is also a problem for all those whose souls are worn as Emperor Chongzhen.

No matter how great the advantage you give, as long as you dare to engage in any kind of thing of the Royal Academy of Sciences aimed at elevating the status of the scholars, the fate of the Royal Academy will be slaughtered, and you will be killed by drinking cold water and drowning in a boat, and there is no other choice.

And if you want to rely on the Confucian class, then any orders you give will be interpreted differently and turned into an excuse for the Confucian students to plunder the people's wealth.

This issue belongs to all the rulers of China, as well as to the Presbyterian Church.

The Imperial Capital Daily vigorously publicized that the people had a lot of discussions about the trial of traitors, and most of them scolded and relieved their anger.

Death row.

Three sumptuous portions of food were delivered to Gong Dingyu, Feng Quan, and Chen Mingxia.

At this moment, the three of them were wearing prison clothes and covering their faces, very embarrassed.

For a few days, I was first poured with drugs, dazed, and then not allowed to sleep, and I had to read out the prepared manuscript before I was allowed to sleep.

Seeing these three such sumptuous food, half a fried chicken, a sea fish, and wine, the three of them seemed to have predicted their fate, Gong Dingyu did not hesitate to grab the fried chicken and take the lead in eating, Feng Quan and Chen Mingxia then did not show weakness, and also began to eat, the three of them cried while eating, regretting not being at the beginning, there is no doubt that this must be their last meal.

Death also has to be a full ghost, this is the only thought of the three of them at the moment.

Soon the three of them ate most of the food, and even each of them poured a pot of wine, and their stomachs slowly became full.

A few men in black watched all this, although the reactionaries have done a lot of all kinds of things that have not been offline, but we can't be so shameless, at least we have to make people full of dead ghosts.

"Eat, eat all the food, and drink more wine, or you won't have the strength to hold on until the end of the execution!"

One of the jailers suddenly looked at the three of them with a smile and said, although he was smiling, but as long as he looked closely, he could see the strong hatred in his expression, and the tone just now was full of penetrating meaning, so that the three of them couldn't help but be frightened when they heard it.

"Hey, hey!" This jailer hated Feng Quan, Chen Mingxia, and Gong Dingyu more than the others, because he had an elder brother who was killed by these civil officials who were fighting against the Jurchens.

Under the open education and review of the Presbyterian Church, these people were horrified to find that if these civil officials did not engage in all kinds of internal struggles and concentrate on exterminating the Eight Banners, then the Eight Banners would have been destroyed ten years earlier.

"Are we going to be beheaded soon?" Gong Dingyu heard some strangeness from the words of the man in black just now, and asked with some uncertainty, his eyes were full of fear, maybe beheading was already their best end.

"Decapitation? Think beautifully! How can you atone for your sins with the last 3,600 knives, and how you can die on the front line and rest in peace for hundreds of thousands of brothers, including Lao Tzu's eldest brother! ”

Three thousand six hundred dollars? This is a punishment of a thousand cuts!

"Nope! You can't do that! Gong Dingyu shouted in horror, he was afraid of death, but he was even more afraid of the pain of a thousand cuts, this was the most painful punishment, how could he not be afraid, his body trembled involuntarily.

"If you can't punish the doctor, the doctor is not guilty of breaking the law!"

Not only Gong Dingyu, but Feng Quan and Chen Mingxia also screamed in horror, and their faces were like ashes!

Suddenly, Chen Mingxia's mouth moved, and he was about to bite his tongue and commit suicide, no matter what, he didn't want to suffer a thousand knives before he died.

"I want to die! It's not that easy! The man in black had already guarded against this hand, and instantly pinched Chen Mingxia's mouth to prevent him from biting his tongue, and finally removed his chin, making it impossible for this dog traitor to bite his tongue.

Gong Dingyu and Feng Quan were the same, they also wanted to bite their tongues and commit suicide, but they were stopped!

As soon as the hour came, the three were put into a prison cart and transported to the judgment seat along with other traitors and Tartar spies.

"Kill the dog traitor!"

"Kill the dog traitor!"

Everyone hates traitors, since they know that more than 100 traitor tartars are going to be judged today, the people have prepared rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves and other things early, and some people even moved the stinky dung, although the stench of the dung permeated most of the street, but the people's hatred for the traitors made them ignore the stench of dung.

Of course, whether there are well-trained Wumao Party in it to lead the rhythm is a matter of opinion.

Of course, the threat of the man in black was just such a scare, he already knew the truth of the matter, the human rights attribute of the Presbyterian Church, once again shining in this barbaric 17th century, they actually demanded a bloodless death penalty, that is, hanging.
