Chapter 35: The Uproar

Previous Chapter

A ray of morning sun rose from the east, and the red morning glow dyed the whole of Qufu gold.

In the propaganda of the Confucian family in the past, this is the holy light of Confucianism, as long as you read at this moment, you will inevitably improve a lot.

No one knows if this is true, but after a long rumor, many people who came to the pilgrimage really believed it.

So at this moment, many readers will come here to bathe in the morning sun and start reading.

However, at this moment, the sound of the books of the past is gone, replaced by pointing and pointing outside the city of Qufu.

On Qufu City, three men were stripped naked and hung there, and the wind could still float with the wind.

These three people are the Qufu County Commander, the contemporary patriarch of the Confucian family, and the contemporary Yan Shenggong.

Next to them there was also a large poster with the crimes of the three men.

"This is slander, this is a rumor, this is a planting!"

A scholar in white walked up to the poster and screamed, trying to tear it off, but the poster was too high to be removed without the help of tools.

"Yes, it's a sham!" Another scholar in Tsing Yi also roared urgently, feeling that the crime above was committed by him.

"Look, there is evidence on it, it seems to be the victim's handwritten blood letter!" A man dressed as an ordinary person pointed to the blackened handwriting next to him and said, "This should be true!" ”

"No, this is the nonsense of the people, and the dirty water splashed by the thieves!" The white-clothed scholar argued.

The poster reads that Yan Shenggong and the patriarch of the Kong family, as well as the Qufu County Order, have been murdering for money since the first year of Hongwu, corrupting the law, committing adultery in the countryside, and treason and condemning the people......

No matter which of these crimes is put on ordinary people, it is not enough to even skin and cramp Zhu Yuanzhang with his personality.

But these charges cannot be placed on the people of the Confucian clan, let alone on Yan Shenggong, because Yan Shenggong is a representative of Confucianism and a descendant of Confucius, and he is sacred.

Therefore, the scholars present must protect Yan Shenggong, even if they open their eyes and tell nonsense.

"Dirty water? Someone will use their innocence to splash dirty water? "Some people questioned.

The poster was posted with a complaint written by the woman herself, and even a fingerprint was pressed.

"Hmph, there are no wonders in the world, why doesn't anyone do this?" The scholar in Tsing Yi snorted coldly.

"Besides, how can you say that a woman is committing adultery? This is obviously a scholar's elegant business, how can you vulgar people understand? The white-clothed scholar conformed to the Tao, "Since ancient times, women's status was despicable, and they were originally men's playthings, and women should not have the crime of adultery. ”

"Boom ......"

The onlookers looked at the scholar in front of them in astonishment.

Reading in their hearts is a sacred thing, a thing that can change their fate, a matter of reasoning and distinguishing between right and wrong.

But the words of the white-clothed scholar in front of him made everyone present very uncomfortable, and they even had an urge to kill him.

"The queen and the queen mother are also women, and they are also despicable?" Someone in the crowd asked sadly.

"This ......" The white-clothed scholar was stunned, because if it is, this is a great rebellion, if it is not, then the crime of Yan Shenggong in front of him cannot be washed away.

"They are naturally not despicable, and the despicable women mentioned below refer to those women who serve the Yan Sheng Gong, and they should feel honored to be favored by the Yan Sheng Gong!" The scholar in Tsing Yi reacted and stood up to defend, "I heard that the law of the former dynasty said that there are women in the township who want to get married, and they need to dedicate the first night to the officials who manage them......

Someone interrupted, "So what? ”

"So Yan Sheng Gong is naturally innocent, these gold and silver treasures are originally Yan Sheng Gong's, there is no need to rob, corruption, as for treason and betrayal, it does not exist, Confucianism is only loyal to the country...... "Tsing Yi scholar said triumphantly.

"The country? Our Daming is not a country? Someone retorted.

The scholar in Tsing Yi said: "No, Confucianism is loyal to the Han ......"

"Then the former Yuan is a Mongolian, why should they be loyal to the former Yuan?"

Tsing Yi scholar: "Mongolia is in the Central Plains, naturally it is also my Chinese family!" ”

"What about Western Xia? They did not enter the Central Plains, so why should Confucianism be loyal to them? ”

Tsing Yi scholar: "That's assimilation, Confucianism wants them to belong to my Han civilization!" ”

“……”

"So no matter what, the Kong family is innocent!" Someone laughed in the crowd, "It turns out that Sage Kong is like this!" He taught his subjects to be loyal to the king, but he himself said that he was loyal to the country; He taught others to be loyal to the country, but he himself said that he was loyal to the culture...... Well, it was an eye-opener today......"

"Who are you? How can you insult Sage Kong! You're damned! The white-clothed scholar drank vigorously, trying to find the person who spoke in the crowd, but he searched several times but did not find this person.

"You're a villain! will only hide in the shadows and stir up trouble! The white-clothed scholar gritted his teeth and scolded, he wants to beat this person into the land of ten thousand tribulations, otherwise not only the Kong family will be finished, but the Kong saint will also be finished.

"A villain is a villain, compared to a saint, I really just want to be a villain!" In the crowd, the voice came out again, but in a different direction.

The scholar in white froze in place, with his ingenuity, how could he have imagined that this was a premeditated plan, the purpose of which was to destroy the status of Confucianism in the hearts of the public.

"It's over......"

The white-clothed scholar stopped speaking, looked up at the dazzling sunlight, and looked down at the sarcastic and mocking people around him.

The demonic nasty voice in the crowd rose again: "There are thousands of Zhongsu in the book, there is a golden house in the book, there are many horses in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book.

But these four sentences actually have a premise and a follow-up, and as a result, you scholars only know that if you read more, you will have gold, beauty, carriage, and food......

However, after reading the book, I suddenly found that there was no gold or beauty, and the only thing I could have was power......

So......

But the focus of Zhao Heng's "Persuasion Poems" is gold and beauty, and his focus is on 'men want to achieve their life'.

Rich families don't need to buy fertile land, there are thousands of bells in the book.

There is no need to raise a hall to live in peace, and there is a golden house in the book.

Don't hate to go out with no one, there are many horses in the book.

Don't hate unscrupulous matchmakers when marrying a wife, there is Yan Ruyu in the book.

The boy wants to fulfill his life's aspirations, and the six classics are read in front of the window. ”

"Where are your aspirations as scholars? If you win the imperial examination, will you keep your ambition as your heart? Some of you have chosen to resist to the death by foreign enemies, even at the cost of destroying your home to relieve your difficulties; Others use what they have learned to turn against their own people.

Now that the Ming Dynasty has been decided, some people have entered the court as officials and displayed their ambitions; There are people at home to help neighbors and cultivate talents for the Ming Dynasty; Some people do not hesitate to work in the fields and plant a grain for Daming; Someone went into business and paid taxes for the Ming Dynasty...... And some people are eating, drinking, and having fun everywhere, and even go so far as to break the law and rob people's ......"

"Oh, sure enough, the ancients were right, for he said that the difference between men is greater than the difference between men and dogs......"

"Confucianism, Confucianism...... Now that Confucianism has become Confucianism, if Confucius had knowledge, he would probably cry! A good education saint has become a sect leader, I really don't know who is insulting Mrs. Kong......"

The mockery stopped, and a long sword flew out of the air.

"Qiang"

The rope broke, and the three hanging men fell to the ground.

Some people want to help, but more people are thinking about the mocking and unpleasant voice.
