Kong Yinzhi was really like falling into an ice cave, and cold sweat kept pouring out like a prostrated patient.

Completely stupefied!

He's a smart guy!

If you are not a smart person, how can you write an eloquent essay about the prosperity of the Eight Desolations and Songs?

Li Zicheng's army has not yet reached Qufu, he was the first to take the lead in putting out the tablet of the Son of Heaven of Dashun for thousands of years, and he did not hesitate to shout out the prosperity of the Eight Desolations and Xiange, and when the shaving order came out of Jiangyin to defend the Chinese clothes and crowns, he was the first to ask for a shaved head.

These are really smart people!

In the bloody war years of the Ming Dynasty, his various actions all proved his IQ......

Of course, what about the festival is another topic.

As soon as Yang Xin's words came out, he immediately understood that the Kong family was facing a real life and death crisis, although there was still a big gap between the Kong family and the Pope Yang Xin said, but a large part of it could already correspond. The Confucian family had de facto fiefdoms, and there were Confucian temples throughout the Ming Dynasty that worshipped their ancestors, and their ancestors' followers controlled the country, and although the Confucian family was not eligible for coronation, the monarchs of previous dynasties would seek their recognition of their right to rule. It can be said that the Kong family is a low-profile version, although the gap is not small, but the Kong family is the only family with the qualifications to become the Pope, it doesn't matter if they want to or not, the important thing is whether they have such qualifications.

It is enough to have this qualification.

For the emperor, having this qualification has the possibility of finally allowing his descendants to be controlled.

Similarly, with this qualification and possibility, it is necessary for an emperor to strike first, and then no matter what Wanli does, the doom of the Kong family will begin.

"This, this is quite novel!"

He said wiping a cold sweat.

"Your Majesty also thinks it's quite novel, of course, I don't mean anything else to tell this story, it's just to entertain it, it's like listening to a drama, although this drama is true, and Your Majesty also wants to know more about Taixi's affairs, and has sent people to Macau to find those red-haired people."

Yang Xin raised his glass and said.

Kong Yinzhi wiped a cold sweat again.

Then he trembled and held the wine glass, and absentmindedly clinked glasses with Yang Xin, but his hands trembled so much that the wine glass fell down at once.

"Ah, I was too careless with Brother Huan, is there any crankiness in my heart?"

Yang Xin said with a smile.

Kong Yinzhi suddenly pushed away the beautiful maid, stood up suddenly, and then fell at Yang Xin's feet, slamming his head on the floor......

"Ask Yang Yishi to save me Kong's full door! My Kong family has never thought about anything more than a part, just relying on the legacy of my ancestors to be a rich man, the Kong family is loyal to the Ming Dynasty and His Majesty, and I have never thought of anything else, everything in the Kong family is given by His Majesty, how dare I be disloyal to Your Majesty! ”

He wailed.

"But others don't think so!"

Yang Xin didn't help him either, bullying Kong Yinzhi was a very pleasant thing for him.

"Your Majesty does believe in the Confucian family, and believes that Yan Shenggong will not have any wrong thoughts, but you are not Confucian disciples in this world, and in fact, Confucian disciples have been trying to fight against the imperial power. Before, just because Jinyiwei didn't give way to them, the scholars in the capital dared to cry the Temple of Literature to demonstrate to His Majesty, your Confucian family really didn't want to empty the imperial power, but the Confucian disciples had already set aside the imperial power in fact.

So will they stop there?

They won't.

They will continue to confront the imperial power, and gradually suppress the imperial power, and finally let Confucianism override the royal power, then they will need a banner, a symbol of Confucianism.

So who else but you guys are a good fit?

Yellow robe! ”

He said with a sneer.

Kong Yinzhi, who was lying on the ground, quickly took out a large handful of silver tickets and stuffed them into his arms.

"Yang Yishi, please show me the way!"

He said resolutely.

"Minglu? Not for nothing! ”

Yang Xin said as he counted the silver tickets.

"Liaodong is in danger, the imperial court's finances are tight, this Yan Shenggong is the head of the civil ministers, naturally he shouldn't sit idly by like this, you must know that even those vassal kings are donating money to the imperial court."

He went on to say.

The vassal king did make a donation.

"How about the Kong family's donation, 100,000 taels?"

Kong Yinzhi said.

Kong Shangxian is too old, in fact, he doesn't take care of things much, the Kong family is presided over by him, 100,000 taels is not a big number, their family has more than 200,000 acres of tax-free sacrificial fields, but in fact, there are a lot of hidden fields in this year, and he may not be able to know how much land the Kong family has, anyway, Qufu Zhixian is his family, and no one can check. In addition, the commercial tax in this Qufu city actually belongs to his family, and he has to pay taxes to his family to do business, and it has been hundreds of years, and they don't count how much wealth they have accumulated in the end, not to mention that there is also a lot of money, and there are continuous rewards every year.

Even the reconstruction of the Confucian Mansion after the last burning was paid by the imperial court.

One hundred thousand taels is really not worth mentioning.

"It should be about the same, too much, as if your Kong family is rich and rivals the country."

Yang Xin said very considerately.

"Plus three years of money!"

Kong Yinzhi said immediately.

Yang Xin nodded.

This number Wanli is also satisfied, Wanli let him come to the purest purpose is to make money, this Ming Emperor is actually the most love of silver, said Wanli is greedy for money is not wrong, he is greedy for money, because the silver of the inner treasury can allow him to get rid of the control of civil officials to the greatest extent, and the control of civil officials is through the financial power of the household department.

100,000 taels is really a lot, and he will only save 7 million for his children and grandchildren when he dies.

However, at this time, the Ming Emperor was really poor, at least Wanli was definitely not the richest person in the Ming Dynasty at present, although Zheng Zhilong had not risen at this time, but Chen Zilong said that the assets of Yangzhou salt merchants were 30 million, and the annual profit was 9 million, which was at this time, that is to say, the silver accumulated by the Ming Emperor for half a century was not as good as the profits of the group of salt merchants in a year.

Just because of this, the tax supervisors and mine supervisors have made the people's resentment boiling.

"Also, we pay equal attention to civil and military affairs, this is the right reason, there are Confucian temples everywhere in the world, but there is no martial temple, no wonder people say that this Confucianism is powerful."

He went on to say.

"Yan Shenggong, please re-establish the martial temple!"

Kong Yinzhi said without hesitation.

"But who will be erected?"

Yang Xin said.

"Guan Yue co-worship?"

Kong Yinzhi said.

Of course he knows what happened in the capital, the founding of the Ming Dynasty has abolished the martial temple, that is to say, Jiang Ziya can no longer be established, Zhu Yuanzhang is abolished, and the descendants of later generations can of course not be established again, and Wanli previously sealed Guan Yu and Yue Fei as saints, and of course they want to establish martial saints. What's more, the construction of the Yue Temple has begun, the capital is already the second temple of Guanyue, and the Guanyue temple is enshrined in various places, and it happens that most places have one of the two, and now it is nothing more than adding a statue, and then there are Wusheng temples in all parts of the Ming Dynasty.

This project is very easy to operate.

"Also, if the Wu Temple is erected, someone will have to worship in the future, and it is best for Yan Shenggong to take the lead, and Yan Shenggong will call on all the scholars and civil officials in the world to worship the Wu Temple!"

Yang Xin said.

"What do you mean, Brother Yang?"

Kong Yinzhi asked.

"Of course, Yan Shenggong entered Beijing to worship the two saints of Guan Yue, and Yan Shenggong worshipped, so the Confucian students in the world naturally must also worship, and it is best for Yan Shenggong to play a system again, for example, officials from all over the country, especially scholars, must take the students to worship the martial temple once a year.

Only in this way can it be reflected that the Ming Dynasty attaches equal importance to both civil and military affairs rather than Confucianism.

It can also block the mouths of the people.

If there are some books from other schools of thought in the collection of Confucius, you might as well take them out and print them.

The status of the Confucian family will not be shaken, and we all understand why they respect Confucianism alone, but the problem now is that those Confucian scholars are a little pampered and arrogant, and feel that it is not His Majesty's respect for Confucianism that gives them their status, but that they should be in this position, so we need to make them sober up and let them understand that Confucianism is not the only one in the world. This matter can only be truly effective if the Confucian family does it, as long as you can work hard to make those Confucian scholars understand that both the Confucian family and Confucianism must be honest under the royal family, then Your Majesty will be relieved. ”

Yang Xin said.

The Confucian family must have had these collections.

Their family is also currently the second largest library after the Yongle Canon.

"Yinzhi understands!"

Kong Yinzhi said very simply.

"Uh, it's really refreshing for Brother Huan!"

Yang Xin said unexpectedly.

"Yang Yishi, my Confucian family has stood for a thousand years, relying on a loyal word, as long as it is loyal to His Majesty, the Confucian family has no words."

Kong Yinzhi said righteously.

What he said was the same as those scumbags who change girlfriends every month, swearing that I have loved each one, their family has stood for thousands of years, isn't it who will kneel to whom? In this sense, they do rely on a word of loyalty, but they show their loyalty to whoever comes, and no matter who they are, as long as they call, they will show their loyalty.

"It's just that Yan Sheng Gong is old and frail......"

He then stopped talking.

"The Yue Temple has not yet been built, and then take a boat into Beijing when the canal opens!"

Yang Xin said.

He doesn't care about this, it must be the Yan Sheng Gong Sacrifice Yue Temple, even if this Yan Sheng Gong is already seventy-nine years old, he must travel thousands of miles to Beijing.

Kong Yinzhi has nothing to say.

He didn't care that his uncle died halfway, anyway, his uncle died and he happened to attack the lord.

Immediately after that, he said goodbye and left, and as soon as he left, Xu Xianchun entered the door.

Yang Xin immediately unfolded a dozen silver tickets to him.

"Brother Yang, how can you be worthy of Your Majesty, Your Majesty asked us to see if Yan Shenggong has any different intentions, how can you do this by a courtier, how can Xu Mou, as a brocade guard, tolerate you."

Xu Xian said in pure words.

With that, he turned and pushed the door open, and walked away with a furious look.

The two beautiful maids looked at each other and silently cleaned up the mess on the table, one of them commanded the little maid who came in to clean up these and leave directly, and then the servant brought in the bath water, and sprinkled the petals, although it was dry, while the other little maid walked gently and gently to Yang Xin's side......

"This kind of person is really ignorant!"

Yang Xin said disdainfully.

Xiao Meiwen must be very sensible, she smiled softly, and then began to untie Yang Yishi's wide clothes......
