"Yan Shenggong? I really thought that I would give him face, and I was anxious, so the three thousand soldiers and horses simply destroyed Que Li, killed the people of the Kong family, and respected the Confucian saint again, and the loss could be made up for in decades. Li Jing said coldly.

His words are not a joke, in the early days of the Qing Dynasty, those literati were reluctant to participate in the imperial examinations held in the Qing Dynasty, but what happened later, but in more than ten years, they forgot about the Jiading Massacre and Yangzhou for ten days, and participated in the imperial examinations of the Qing Dynasty with a dead face, and became a loyal and filial son of the Qing Dynasty? Li Jing believes that as long as these people are benefited, who cares about the life or death of the Kong family in Queli.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Que Li is really going to be divided into two parts." Zhao Ding said.

"It's a good thing to be divided into two parts, otherwise, how could I let Zhao Jin go to Jiangnan, and as soon as I sent it here, I was killed by Zhao Gou. No matter what method is used, Zhao Jin will be killed in the end, didn't he Kong Duanyou say that he was loyal to Zhao Song? Jing Kangdi's son can't help but protect it! If he doesn't protect it, even if he goes to Jiangnan, no one will pay attention to him, but if he does, hehe, I'm afraid Zhao Gou's side will not be easy to deal with. Li Jing said disdainfully.

"Your Majesty's move, I'm afraid it will kill the Kong family." Zhao Ding shook his head. The Kong family prides itself on being the orthodox Zhao and Song dynasties, when Zhao Gou ascended the throne, Kong Duanyou also went to watch the ceremony in person, in fact, he had long forgotten Emperor Jing Kang, and now Emperor Jingkang's son has appeared, whether the Kong family is guaranteed or not, once Zhao Jin is killed, the world is in an uproar, but if he does not kill, Zhao Gou will have to sit on wax.

"Prepare for the sacrifice the day after tomorrow, Kong Duanyou will not come, you will go up yourself, and you will preside over the sacrifice. I don't believe it, without him the Confucian family, I can't sacrifice to the Confucian saint. Li Jing's face was gloomy.

"Obey." Zhao Ding said with a smile: "The minister thinks that no matter whether Kong Duanyou will come or not, the Kong family will definitely come." It is better to let whoever comes from the Confucian family preside over the sacrificial ceremony, according to the rules of the Confucian family, only Yan Shenggong can preside over the sacrificial ceremony. ”

"You mean, whoever comes, will be canonized as the Holy Father? And then let them fight in the nest? Li Jing understood the meaning of Zhao Ding's words, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, he nodded, pointed at Zhao Ding and said: "I still thought that Zhao Qing was a sincere gentleman, but now it seems that Zhao Qing is also holding back the bad in his heart." Zhao Ding's face stiffened, his lips twitched, but he didn't dare to say anything. Gao Zhan behind Li Jing couldn't help laughing, and the three of them laughed out loud in the end.

When Kong Duancao returned to Queli, he was summoned into the meeting hall by Kong Duanyou and Kong Chuan, the heads and brains of the Kong family were all here, and even the disciples of the saints such as Yan and Meng also appeared here, obviously discussing the matter of moving south.

"The Son of Hongwu has a very tough attitude, although my Confucian family has made many contributions in Shilin, but in the eyes of Emperor Hongwu, no one should have excess land, land must be distributed to those who do not have land, and the imperial court will give monetary subsidies." Kong Duancao sighed.

"The land and property are things left by the ancestors, how can they be sold to the imperial court?" Kong Duanmu shouted loudly. In the eyes of these people, land is ancestral property, and only incompetent people will sell ancestral property, which is a great event for the Kong family.

"Yes, don't even think about it, when the Tang Dynasty was not established, these lands were given by our Kong family, which were given by the previous dynasties, and also purchased by our Kong family, which was a serious income, why should Li Jing take it back?" Kong Chuan's face was gloomy, the Kong family can contribute money, can give people, but absolutely not land, especially this patriarch is still him Kong Chuan, selling land in his hands, where will he have the face to see the ancestors in the future.

"It seems that Emperor Hongwu is preparing to force us to leave the ancestral land of the Central Plains, isn't he afraid that those scholars will not work for him in the future?"

"He's ready for this, knowing that we might leave Queli, and still taking such a way, it's really amazing! Emperor Hongwu had a tough personality and would not compromise, such a person would either submit to him or become an enemy of him, and there was no third way. Kong Duanyou's face was gloomy as water, and he said coldly: "This is what he forced us, order someone to pack up!" Prepare to leave Queli. ”

"But if we go, what about the fields in this quake?" Kong Chuan said with some concern.

"No, we are leaving, these lands are still our Kong family, if Li Jing waits for us to leave, he will confiscate these lands, then he will lose his trust, and no one will defect to him in the future and serve him." Besides, we didn't all move away, didn't Duan Cao stay here to guard the temple forest? Kong Duanyou smiled: "Could it be that Li Jing really dares to risk the accusations of the people of the world and seize our land without the permission of my Kong clan?" ”

"Yes, Li Jing claims to be a Ming Jun, even if he takes back the land, he will buy it with money, even if he doesn't buy it, he will find the other party to violate the law and discipline, and then kill him, and punish him without teaching, how can he convince the people of the world, don't you know now that we are going to Jiangnan? We don't want to use other names, but to go to Jiangnan to teach, after my Kong family is a saint, many outstanding talents in the clan, go to Jiangnan to teach, spread the concept of saints, do Li Jing still dare to do something to us? Kong Chuan laughed.

As long as he is a descendant of Confucius and a saint, and does not do anything illegal and undisciplined, can Li Jingyan harm himself? With the protection of his golden body, no matter how arrogant Li Jing is, it is useless.

"The day after tomorrow, shouldn't you send someone to watch it, lest the world say that there is no one in my Kong family's eyes." Kong Duancao secretly complained in his heart, these guys have a reason to leave, they can stay in Jiangnan and not come back, but what about him? He also has to live in Qufu to guard the temple forest, and Li Jing has enough reasons and opportunities to deal with himself and others.

"Go, you always have to go. you and Kong Fan! Kong Chuan glanced at Kong Duancao, saw the embarrassment in his heart, thought about it and said: "It's just that you have to remember, the matter of presiding over the sacrifice is not something that the Holy Father of Yan can't do, although you are a member of the Kong family, you are not qualified to preside over the sacrificial ceremony, it is better to watch the excitement on the side!" ”

"Yes." Kong Duancao breathed a sigh of relief, if there was no one in the Kong family at that time, then it would be a big joke? In the end, Li Jing is also the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Kong Duancao thinks that there is no need for the Kong family to be so stiff, after all, Li Jing has actually agreed to the entire Kong family going south. It's just that he doesn't know Li Jing's calculations, and if he knew, he would rather offend Li Jing than dare to get out of the palace at this time.

Not to mention that the Kong clan was preparing to leave Queli and go south, and in Qufu, the fact that Emperor Hongwu of the Tang Dynasty was preparing to sacrifice the Confucian saint outside Qufu City also spread throughout Qufu in an instant, and even farther, and many scholars came to watch the ceremony.
