Chapter 408: Count your sins in front of Kong Sheng

Bang bang bang.

The thick gate of the Confucian Mansion was knocked heavily by the pro-soldiers.

These days, the servants of the Confucian Mansion are very lively. The main family spoke, and the door was closed, allowing the wind and rain outside, and it had nothing to do with the Confucian Mansion.

It is precisely because of this that the servants who used to guard the door had a rare opportunity to be idle to do some things with the ladies in the house.

Today, however, because the head of the family, Yan Shenggong Kongne, was going south to Beijing to meet His Majesty the Emperor, the palace had made preparations early.

After sending the head of the house away, the porter was not happy to scare away everywhere, so he shrank in the hut behind the gate.

When there was a knock on the door of the house, several porters jumped in their hearts and immediately stood up from the bed and couch.

Outside the Confucian Mansion, the knocking of officers and soldiers on the door became louder and more urgent.

"Who?"

"If you come to visit, please hand over the post, my master will see it, and I will arrange a meeting in the future."

Behind the door, the porter's response came out.

That's the rule.

The officers and soldiers outside the gate of the mansion stopped, and one person stepped forward, and said in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness the Emperor of the Prison State is coming, and he wants to come to the door to pay homage to the statue of the Holy Confucius." ”

"How can anyone worship my ancestor?" Behind the door panel, there was the teasing sound of the porter, but soon there was a sound of neck twitching and gasping: "Yes...... Be...... Is it His Royal Highness? ”

"The middle door of the Confucian Mansion is fully open! Greetings to His Royal Highness! ”

The soldiers raised their eyebrows and shouted in a deep voice.

Behind the door, there was the sound of footsteps, but the sound was getting farther and farther away, thinking that it was the porter who went to inform the people of the Kong family.

Creak.

Ahead, the gate of the Confucian Mansion was also slowly opened, and several porters cautiously probed their brains outward, looking at the people outside.

When Jin Yiwei's flying fish suit appeared in the eyes of the entrance room, they finally chose to believe.

"The little ones meet His Royal Highness."

The porter of the Confucian Mansion opened all the doors, and then came out and knelt aside.

Surrounded by everyone, Zhu Yunxi turned to look sideways at the open door of the Confucian Mansion.

Behind the door, the master's house has not yet appeared, but everywhere in sight, the servants and maids are kneeling on the ground, waiting for His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun to enter the house.

"In a thousand-year-old family, the rules are bigger than in the palace."

Zhu Yunxi said a few words casually.

Zhu Gaochi echoed beside him: "The Confucian Mansion has a huge collection of books, and the Confucian sage studied Zhou etiquette in his early years, and he paid the most attention to this etiquette and education. Let's wait and go inside, maybe we'll see a lot of shops we've never seen before. ”

"Your Highness, Kong Gongjian, the son of the Holy Duke of Yan, is here with someone."

Zhang Zhiyuan whispered on the side.

Everyone looked up one after another, only to see that the Confucian Mansion could be regarded as a nest move.

Led by several Confucian clan elders, Kong Gongjian walked out with an anxious face.

Who knew that his father had just left home to go to Beijing, and he had just finished resolving the rebellion in Henan Province, and it was supposed that the imperial grandson, who was supposed to continue his western tour, would suddenly arrive outside his house.

This made Kong Gongjian, who had just closed his eyes not long and just wanted to rest for a while, as if there was a fire burning in his heart.

It's so sinful.

"The courtiers and clansmen greet His Royal Highness, the Imperial Mansion has not prepared, and has not done a sprinkling and washing, please forgive Your Highness."

Far away, Kong Gongjian shouted outside the mansion.

His voice was loud, as if to make it clear to all.

Zhu Yunxi stood outside the Confucian Mansion, motionless like a mountain.

And he is also recognizable at a glance.

After a while, Kong Gongjian, the elders of the Confucian family, and the clansmen finally walked out of the mansion.

Zhu Yunxi leaned sideways slightly, his eyes squinting.

Kong Gongjian walked to the front and hugged the elders of the Kong family, but his eyes were still surprised.

Zhu Shangbing had stood in the back before, and when he saw that the people of the Kong family had come out, he immediately shouted: "Beat up Your Majesty's Son of Heaven Order, don't forget the rules, and turn around and punish you." ”

The officers and soldiers of the brocade guards, who already had the duty of guarding the honor guard, immediately showed the honor guards of the imperial grandson.

Then Zhu Shangbing nodded contentedly, and his eyes scattered to the people in the Confucian Mansion.

And Kong Gongjian, who was originally only going to make a cross-handed salute, his face was already a little ugly at this moment.

He and the elders of the Kong family raised their eyes to look at the imperial grandson who was on the side, but they didn't see any movement, but they seemed to be a little tired because of the long journey.

After the honor guard of Tianziling was carried out, everyone in the Kong family could only reluctantly accept this fact.

"Courtier, meet His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson, and welcome His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson into the mansion."

"The students meet His Royal Highness."

"The villain greets His Royal Highness."

For a time, the entire Confucian Mansion was full of high butts and low heads.

Kong Gongjian and Yan Shenggong are all courtiers. The members of the Kong family, regardless of their age, call themselves students. Those sons of the Confucian family can only be described as villains.

In the distance, Tang Keke looked at this scene and said softly: "Look now, they are all the same people, and they don't see any difference." ”

"Where can there be different people, not all of them have two eyes and one mouth." Zhang Zhiyuan crossed his arms, greeted His Royal Highness the Taisun by himself, and sent him to the Confucian Mansion.

As for His Royal Highness Taisun in the Confucian Mansion, it was naturally an errand for the Jinyi guards.

Everyone in the Confucian family knelt down and saluted, Zhang Zhiyuan and Tang Keke gossiped, and Zhang Hui, the former brocade guard of the Confucian Mansion, was already cold-eyed, and led people around the Kong family on the ground to both sides of the mansion gate.

"Enter!"

Zhang Hui was just a short and powerful word, and the brocade guards had already poured into the Confucian Mansion like a tide.

Jin Yiwei entered the house, and the movement was naturally insignificant, and there was a burst of noisy movement in the Confucian Mansion in an instant.

Only then did Zhu Yunxi remember to wake up from his false sleep, and blinked at the people of the Confucian Mansion: "Why do you all have such a big gift, please hurry up." Sure enough, it is worthy of my family of pilgrims, Yansheng Gongfu. ”

Zhu Yunxi turned around and straightened his face as he spoke, and walked in front of Kong Gongjian, he just stretched out his hand vaguely, and Yutian Ben, who was waiting on the side, stepped forward immediately.

Yutian glanced at Kong Gongjian, who was the closest and oldest elder of the Kong family. He stepped forward and took the man's arms with both hands.

Although Yutian is an inner eunuch, his body and bones are very well polished. When I first saw that I was casual, I couldn't hold up this old thing of the Kong family, and the other party didn't know the rules and stood up along with him.

Yutian sneered in his heart, and the toes of his right foot rubbed silently on the ground, his arms first pressed down, and then he held a breath in his chest.

In front of everyone's eyes, Yutian immediately held up the patriarch of the Kong family. Let this clan elder kneel down easily, but it is difficult to get up in an instant.

Kong Gongjian and the people in the clan saw that they were already deflated one after another today, and they did not have the strength to compare the moment, so they got up.

"His Royal Highness Emperor Xie."

Zhu Yunxi snorted, and then lifted his footsteps and walked in from the middle gate of the Confucian Mansion.

He didn't speak, and Zhu Gaochi, who was beside him, had to act as a communicator, and from time to time he talked to Kong Gongjian about boring but enduring topics.

The whole Confucian Mansion covers an area of hundreds of acres, there are more than 400 halls and buildings, built in Hongwu ten years, nine into the courtyard, three road layout.

Entering from the middle gate of the Confucian Mansion, Zhu Yunxi did not go to the three halls and six halls in front of the middle of the Confucian Mansion, but paused for a moment and looked at the northwest side.

"After thinking about it, it's the first time I've come to Qufu to worship Confucius, should I go to the Confucian Temple?"

Kong Gongjian, who had already turned sideways to greet Zhu Yunxi, changed his face again.

When I entered the house, I wanted to go to the Confucian Temple.

Kong Gongjian bowed his head and smiled: "His Royal Highness is the body of a daughter, and he is ordered by the emperor to give it the same power as His Majesty." His Royal Highness's first visit to the Mansion has made it full of brilliance, and the ministers have not followed it. ”

Zhu Yunxi looked sideways at Kong Gongjian, who finished speaking, and looked up at Kong Gongjian with a smile on his face.

He shook his robe, and said softly and casually: "The Confucian Mansion lives in Qufu, and I thought that I was cultivating and reading the heirloom and didn't care about the world, but I didn't know that the Confucian Mansion also knew a lot of things in the world. ”

The imperial grandson was dissatisfied with the Kong family.

When Zhu Yunxi said this, Kong Gongjian's heart had already risen to his throat. Especially now that the Confucian Mansion is surrounded by tens of thousands of officials and soldiers, this has to make Kong Gongjian exert twelve points of energy to think and deal with it.

His father's words when he left still echoed in Kong Gongjian's mind, and all the gains and losses were no bigger than the eternal inheritance of the Kong family.

Kong Gongjian clasped his hands: "The ministers are Li Shu first, and then the ministers of the Ming Dynasty. His Majesty gave grace to build a mansion, set up three halls and six halls in front of the government, and allowed officials to enter the palace to discuss state affairs. ”

Kong Gongjian couldn't help explaining, and everyone also went to the Confucian Temple in the west of the Confucian Mansion.

Zhu Yunxi suddenly stretched out his hand.

"Is it going this way?"

Kong Gongjian and the people of the Confucian Mansion who followed him and bowed their heads carefully to accompany and prepare to serve, were stunned.

This imperial grandson's words jumped and was completely unexpected.

Kong Gongjian was helpless, looked at the west door of his house, and nodded respectfully: "Go back to Your Highness, you can enter the Confucian Temple after passing through this gate, but it has been ...... recently."

He was about to say something about the recent Confucian Temple because of Zhang Zhiyuan's gang of misdeeds, and it was full of dust and looked quite messy.

Zhu Yunxi snatched the words: "When I was alone in the palace, I often corresponded with the sages and sages, and today I can worship all the saints, and I can make a wish." ”

Immediately, Zhu Yunxi had already stepped out of the west gate of the Confucian Mansion and went outside to the Confucian Temple.

It was probably at this time that in order to facilitate the people in the Confucian Mansion to go to the Confucian Temple, a small door was opened on the east wall of the Confucian Temple.

Push the door in, it is the main hall of the Confucian Temple.

At this time, the Dacheng Hall was not later, but it was also exquisitely built. Five open rooms, the top is paved with glazed tiles, and the glazed components are made.

A group of people went to the front of the Dacheng Hall with their own thoughts.

The servants of the Kong family were already in a hurry, opening all the five rooms of the Dacheng Palace.

In an instant, the tablet portrait of the holy master Confucius and the Confucian philosophers were enshrined and displayed in the eyes of everyone.

When the emperor and grandson wanted to worship Confucius, although it was temporary, he was temporary. But the Confucian Mansion still did its best, or rather, the children of the Confucian Mansion did their best.

It only took the effort of the tea pillar incense to roughly prepare a complete set of processes.

Zhu Yunxi was very serious, his attitude and appearance were extremely pious, and he followed the etiquette guidance to complete the whole process.

When he raised his head, the portrait of Confucius wearing Confucian clothes, big ears, thick nose, big teeth, and bowing sideways with no hands was clearly reflected in front of him.

He let out a long sigh, and there was something unusual in it.

Then, Zhu Yunxi snorted again.

When Zhu Yunxi turned around, Kong Gongjian and the people in Kong Mansion bowed their heads and retreated.

Zhu Yunxi glanced at Kong Gongjian vigorously, and took a few steps forward to the threshold, and the gang had already withdrawn outside the Dacheng Hall one after another.

Zhu Gaochi glanced around and hit Zhu Shangbing's foot with his toes.

Zhu Shangbing turned his head, his face showing doubt.

Zhu Gaochi blinked and motioned for Xiao Han to go outside and get ready for the town.

But where can Zhu Shangbing understand this, he squeezed his eyebrows for a while.

And this time.

Zhu Yunxi's face was already full of iron, his face was extremely dark, and he said in a cold tone: "Don't you feel ashamed to stand in front of Kong Sheng?" ”

Kong Gongjian, who has had countless ideas, finally reacted.

The emperor's grandson is here to find fault.

I'm afraid that the Kong family is really going to suffer this time!

The Confucian people behind him were also completely stunned.

Kong Gongjian gradually calmed down after experiencing the initial trance, and he led the people of the Kong family to kneel silently in front of the Dacheng Palace.

There was no confusion or anger on his face.

Kong Gongjian just calmly clasped his hands and looked at Zhu Yunxi calmly: "The ministers are deeply favored by the emperor, and the place where the mansion lies on the couch is also built by His Majesty." The Confucian family is incompetent, and the first Duke of Yansheng is already the first civil official in the court, but he has no good strategy for governing the country to dedicate to the court.

However, the ministers and others did not dare to forget the teachings of the sages and cultivate and read the heirlooms. Under the ancestral apricot forest, there is still the sound of reading. In the school, the children are literate and literate, and the Confucian family never forgets to raise the younger generations, help the neighbors, and prosper.

We dare not forget the words of our ancestors, and we have never forgotten the great wishes of our ancestors. The ministers don't know why His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun worships the ancestor Kong Sheng today, why does he have such a question, which really makes the ministers embarrassed. ”

Zhu Yunxi chuckled lightly, the expression on his face was also a little restrained, and he just asked calmly: "What the Confucian Mansion has done over the years, can it really be hidden from everyone?" Or are you hiding it from yourself? ”

Kong Gongjian spread his hands, leaned over and kowtowed, and slapped the ground.

The people of the Kong family behind him spoke one after another: "I don't know what crime I have committed, so that His Highness is so suspicious. ”

Kong Gongjian shouted: "Please Your Highness Mingjian, more than 1,000 members of the Confucian family, loyal to the Ming Dynasty, remember the kindness of the court day and night, and be loyal to the king, if there is a traitor to provoke, please also ask His Highness to distinguish with his eyes, and also let everyone in the world take a look, what a traitor, it is ......."

"That's enough."

Zhu Yunxi was a little tired, because he was rushing around for days, because he was tired of these flies and dogs, he whispered and waved to the outside of Dacheng Palace.

Then, Zhu Yunxi looked at Kong Gongjian, who was interrupted by himself.

This almost indisputable and only next Yan Shenggong actually tried to use the entire world of scholars as an excuse and explanation.

Zhu Yunxi sneered, but didn't make any more moves.

In his eyes, Kong Gongjian is not Yan Shenggong, just an ordinary person, and a person who does not live long.

And with his beckoning, from outside the main gate of the Confucian Temple, a series of footsteps came.

The footsteps passed through the Dacheng Gate and the apricot altar, and reached the outside of the Dacheng Palace.

It was a team of brocade-clothed guards, but it was led by Tian Mai.

These Jinyi guards arrived in groups of four, carrying a mouthful of wooden boxes, and arrived in front of Kong Gongjian and others.

Zhu Yunxi picked a box, walked out of the hall, landed on it, and then tilted his head to look at the statue of Kong in the hall, and raised his voice and said: "Come on, close the door of the hall, don't dirty the eyes of the saint." ”

The officers and soldiers immediately stepped forward and tightly closed the doors of the five-bay Dacheng Hall one by one.

At this time, Zhu Yunxi kicked the front box away.

"Kong Zhaowen, do you want to see what is in these boxes?"

Zhu Yunxi stared at Kong Gongjian sarcastically, and asked teasingly.

Since the officers and soldiers came in with that mouthful of boxes, Kong Gongjian had already buried his head in the ground, and a strong premonition had arisen in his heart, and the Kong family was afraid that he would suffer this time.

Hearing the question at this moment, Kong Gongjian raised his head silently, and he could only get to the box where there was an account book, so he replied: "It's a book." ”

Zhu Yunxi chuckled: "Do you know what was written?" ”

Kong Gongjian's legs kneeling on the ground twitched twice, and he leaned over and lowered his head again: "I don't know." ”

"They say that they are all Confucian families, a family of saints who have been inherited for thousands of years, and everything they have done over the years has even ......" Zhu Yunxi's voice sounded outside the Dacheng Hall containing the Confucian saints, and there was also the sound of paper turning during the period: "Oh! There are even those unsightly things that the Kong family did in the former Yuan Dynasty! ”

At the end, Zhu Yunxi's voice suddenly became angry, and the account book in his hand was slapped heavily on the wooden box.

"It's only been twenty-eight years since the Ming Dynasty, and the Kong family has more than doubled the amount of land, you guys are really ruthless!"

Outside the Dacheng Palace, the Jinyi Guards had already entered a large number of people, and there was silence in all directions, and the people in the corner who originally wanted to go out to ventilate and report the news had also been put down by the two Jinyi Guards.

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Shangbing, leaning on the shade in front of the hall, put their hands in their pockets, staring at these Kong family members with their eyes open.

From the time they left Luoyang City and came to Shandong Province, the end of the Kong family was already doomed.

Zhu Yunxi picked up another account book and took a deep breath: "Today's day is not bad, it's better to be alone in front of Kong Sheng, good, carefully count, count what sins you have done!" ”

"In the past twenty years, the Yanzhou Mansion of the Ming Dynasty has become half of the land of your Confucian family. Where did the taxes of the imperial court come from! The border army threw their heads and spilled blood outside the Great Wall, how many people went out of Yanzhou, can they know when they come back, their own land has become your Kong family! ”

"I don't remember the birth of a child, there is a beautiful daughter in the countryside, so I was trained in the house before Luohong, thinking that it was ...... Think it's elegant? ”

"This is what you people who claim to be the descendants of saints have done!"

Zhu Yunxi only flipped through the records of the Kong family's crimes verified by the secret guard after a few times, and he couldn't stand it anymore.

He angrily photographed the account book, stood up, and paced back and forth in front of the temple.

The boxes of five or six mouths all record the words and deeds and deeds of the Confucian Mansion over the years, which is really hard to write!

Kong Gongjian finally panicked.

The Kong family behind him was also afraid.

Everyone was wriggling on the ground like maggots.

"Please spare your life!"

"Your Highness forgives your sins, we are waiting for you to know your sins, and please let Your Highness let me wait......"

Zhu Yunxi didn't intend to let go of these people, he kicked the box in front of him to the ground, and the scattered account books blocked Kong Gongjian, who was about to climb in front of him.

And he said coldly: "Come to people, read one by one, read it to the people of Confucius." ”
