Chapter 656: The Secret of the Analects

Li Tai's negative teaching materials are very effective, so that Kong Ne let go of his ideological baggage, isn't he just a daughter? What is there that cannot be recognized? Why can't it be above board? Could it be that Confucianism is bigger than the recognition of father and daughter?

He has dedicated his life to Confucianism, and in the end he doesn't even have the right to be a father?

So when Kong Ne realized this qiē, he gladly accepted Hu Ye's persuasion and took Meiqi to recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors, although Meiqi is still in the Qinglou, but she is his daughter, which is something that no one can change.

Even the emperor can recognize the child born to a Qinglou girl as a princess, why can't he recognize his daughter?

The next day, everyone was ready to cross the Yellow River and embark on the journey home.

Originally, with Kong Ne's current body, it was not suitable for long-distance travel at all, but this goods were eager to return home, so he couldn't care so much, found a soft carriage, and took Hu Ye, Meiqi and Lao Qian on the road.

Maybe it's because I've been homesick for too long, and Kong Ne will poke his head out from time to time along the way, looking at the scenery all the way back, like a little doll.

"Boy, I see how you are so preoccupied, what? Can enlighten the old man, but can't figure it out himself? Kong Ne turned his head and suddenly asked Hu Ye.

Hu Ye smiled bitterly, he really had nowhere to talk about these things, except for Xiaoqiang, no one understood. Seeing Kong Ne, an old man who hadn't gone home for six years, was excited to go home, why didn't Hu Ye miss another home.

"Forget it, if you don't say it, forget it, after you arrive in Qufu, rest at my house for two days, and talk about it after my funeral." Kong Ne said casually.

"What does Yan Shenggong mean by this, you are refreshed now, why do you come to say this?" Hu Ye asked suddenly.

"You know it's because of that incident that I haven't been breathing, and now it's figured out. There is no shackle in my heart, and I can go away with peace of mind, this time I go home, not so much to let Meiqi recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors, but rather to say that I recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors. ”

Kong Ne's mood is also ever-changing, just now he was a lively little doll, but now he has immediately become a deep old man, thinking about his future again.

Hearing Kong Ne say this, Meiqi's heart also sank, and she has been with Kong Ne for the past few years. He naturally knew what Kong Ne was thinking, and he also knew Kong Ne's body very well.

The group was speechless again, and walked on the road for three days and three nights, and then came to Qufu City, after all, Kong Ne's body was important, and the speed didn't matter.

The Yansheng Mansion is still like that, very magnificent, but Kong Ne has long stopped caring about this.

Kong Gongduo and Kong Jianjian were both in the house, and they saw that their father, who hadn't been home for six years, had finally returned. Naturally, it was overjoyed.

"Okay, okay, don't make a big fuss, what you should do and what you should do."

Conne waved his hand, overwhelming his two sons.

Wait until Kong Ne takes Maggie into the house. Kong Gongduo came to Hu Ye's side and asked in a low voice, "Boy, who is that woman?" ”

"Dare to ask Master Kong Gongduo how old is this year?" Hu Ye asked.

"Forty and five. I don't know what you mean? Kong Gongduo asked curiously, he asked the woman, what does it have to do with his age?

"Then she's your sister. Your own sister. Hu Ye said casually, and walked in with the old money, this is not the first time that the Yan Shenggong Mansion has come, Hu Ye is naturally not a stranger.

"My own sister? Big brother, did you know that we also have a sister? ”

Kong Gongduo asked Kong Jianjian curiously, but Kong Jianjian only shook his head in denial.

Their doubts were soon solved, for as immediately after Conne's return to the Yansheng Mansion, a family meeting was held.

There were a lot of people attending the meeting, because the Kong family is also a big family, Kong Ne also has brothers, and his brothers also have children and grandchildren.

Hu Ye was naturally not invited, after all, this was a family meeting, and Kong Gongduo and Kong Jianjian had no opinion on this. But what does a woman do in a family meeting?

"Alright, be quiet."

Conne finally spoke, and the crowd fell silent.

"I'm calling the family meeting today, mainly for one thing." Kong Ne stood up, although he had not returned for six years, the majesty of being the head of the family was still there, and everyone listened calmly.

"It doesn't seem to be difficult anymore."

When Hu Ye heard that it was suddenly so quiet inside, he knew that Kong Ne's matter was done, and Meiqi would be able to recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors, although she couldn't enter the ancestral hall of the Kong family, but she could have a Kong surname.

Hearing this, Hu Ye began to wander around the mansion, I have to say that this Yan Shenggong Mansion is worthy of being a thousand-year-old family, a mansion is many times larger than his own nameless mansion, Hu Ye walked around for several hours before he walked around.

And after he came down, the family meeting of the Kong family was just over, Hu Ye originally thought that the meeting would be very smooth, but it didn't seem to be smooth, when Kong Ne came out, his face was still a little unhappy, and Meiqi was comforting by his side.

"Yan Shenggong, aren't you in any trouble?" Hu Ye walked up and asked.

"My father wanted to write my sister into the family tree, but everyone objected, saying that the Kong family was a thousand-year-old family and a model for the people of the world, and it was absolutely not allowed to have the slightest stain. said that my father was already a stain on the Kong family, and he was not allowed to tarnish the family tree of the Kong family again. They also voted to remove my father from the position of head of the family, if it weren't for my eldest brother who was suppressed as the Holy Prince, I am afraid that the consequences would be unimaginable. Kong Gongduo sighed, at first, he also thought it would be very smooth, but he didn't expect his uncles and uncles to be so opposed.

"None of this matters, the important thing is that I returned home, which is enough, what about the genealogy, the genealogy of the Kong family has recorded so many people, but who remembers who lives on the genealogy, thousands of years later, it has not turned to dust."

Meiqi sighed, in fact, Kong Ne put down her burden and asked her to call her father, it was already a great success, and whether she could enter the family tree or not was really nothing to her.

"Hey, I've served it all my life, but in the end I can't get its tolerance." Conne sighed, and then dragged his rickety back away.

Hu Ye knew what Kong Ne was talking about, he was talking about Confucianism, as a descendant of Confucius, he was educated in Confucianism since he was a child, and he began to promote Confucianism since he was a child. Unexpectedly, in the end, he was also bound by Confucianism, and he couldn't even write his daughter into the family tree.

That night, the Yansheng Mansion was quiet, as if they were all thinking about what happened during the day today. How can he have a relationship with a woman in the Qinglou? What's even worse is that why did she give birth to a daughter? Want to be included in your family tree? Isn't this to ruin the glorious image of Confucius back then?

Hu Ye came to the old place with a thing, that is, the place where he first saw Kong Ne, the ancestral hall of the Kong family.

As Hu Ye expected, Kong Ne was sitting in the same place, and Hu Ye saw him for the first time, and this goods were there to worship his ancestors.

Hu Ye didn't bother him, but came to the small room next to him, waiting for Kong Ne to finish confessing to his ancestors.

Hu Ye didn't wait too long, Kong Ne dragged his tired body to the hut.

"Boy, are you right or wrong about what my ancestors insisted on?" Kong Ne frowned and asked loudly.

"Didn't Yan Shenggong say before, there is a right and a wrong in everything, and there is no way to tell the right from the wrong." Hu Ye said casually, he really didn't dare to judge Confucianism, there is a good saying, it is reasonable to save zài, since this thing has been stored for more than a thousand years, and it will continue for hundreds of years, there must be a reason for it.

But the drawbacks are also obvious, and as a synonym for Confucianism, Kong Ne suffers from it.

"Hey, right or wrong, maybe it will have to be left to future generations."

Kong sat down with difficulty, and after the twists and turns of this matter, his face turned pale again, and it also consumed too much of his energy.

"Boy, the matter has come to this, presumably the Kong family can't tolerate Meiqi, even if it is protected by my two sons, I'm afraid it won't help, the name of Yan Shenggong, the Kong family will not be contaminated. I just want you to promise me that after I die, I will give Maggie a good place to go. Conne said weakly.

"What is Yan Shenggong's words, even if you don't say it, I will take care of her, not to mention ......" Hu Ye wanted to continue, but was stopped by Kong Ne.

"I know what you want to say, in fact, you also know that what you said is just a lie, I have a hunch, my limit is in these two days, you can accompany me on this last journey." Conne waved his hand.

Seeing that Kong Ne didn't even have the desire to survive, Hu Ye knew that he was really disillusioned, and originally thought that if he broke free from the last trace of shackles, he would be able to make Meiqi recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, but he didn't expect to be defeated by Confucianism in the end.

"By the way, back then, Yan Shenggong gave me a unique copy of the Analects and asked me to delve into its mysteries. How can the kid be stupid, he hasn't been able to understand the mystery for six years, this time on his back, he brought it by the way and returned it to Yan Shenggong, after all, this is a relic of Sage Kong, and the kid deserves it. Hu Ye said and took out the only copy of "The Analects", in fact, when Kong Ne handed this thing to him, he knew that he couldn't understand anything.

"Hey, the three caves of the cunning rabbit, the hundred tombs of the Qin Emperor, what does the Analects understand. The old man has been enlightened for most of his life, but he has not been able to understand the secret, but now he seems to have discovered it. The so-called secret is the repentance of Confucius Sage for his writings. Perhaps he knew back then that this work would have an impact on the world, so he left this secret for future generations to understand. But how can everyone who worships him as a saint doubt its correctness? When I was dying, I realized that this so-called secret was actually to recognize the mistake in it, but it had been deeply rooted in my heart, and if I wanted to refute it again, I was already powerless, and I could only go to see my ancestors with this regret. What if you understand it thoroughly? What if you can't understand it? Kong Ne closed his eyes and waved his hand at Kaguya, signaling that Hu Ye could leave. (To be continued......)
