Chapter 230: The New Deal is Imminent

As soon as this remark came out, the whole house was shocked.

Xue Xuan stood up and asked, "What did you say?" ”

Not only him, but everyone was stunned.

In the jury, Zhu Qizhen was also shocked.

The letters that were found in the Tatar Ministry at the beginning showed that there was something wrong with the Yan Sheng Gong.

However, he only thought that the Kong family was greedy for life and afraid of death, and he couldn't take care of it at that time, so he put it aside.

Sending Bei Lin to invite Quzhou Kong's family, I didn't have much hope, but I didn't expect to reveal a big secret.

Yan Shenggong was given the title by Emperor Taizu, how could it be a Mongol......

Kong Yanjin was even more angry, almost jumping to his feet, and scolded: "You shaft, what is your intention to frame me like this? ”

After finishing speaking, he immediately came to the front of the hall and cried: "This person harbors evil intentions, slanders loyalty, lest the world will not be chaotic, and ask Lord Xue to judge!" ”

Xue Xuan frowned and asked: "Kong Mingbo, you have to think clearly, if you can't produce evidence, you will be framing the prince of the dynasty, and this official will have to convict you of reversing!" ”

Kong Mingbo took a deep breath, then nodded to Belin.

Belin motioned, pulling out a stack of letters.

"Lord Xue, please see, this is a letter that the emperor led his troops to attack Mobei, and when the Northern Yuan Khan fled in a hurry, he didn't have time to take it away."

Xue Xuan took the letter, opened it and glanced at it, and suddenly looked shocked.

Immediately after, he opened the others, and the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became, and he looked at Kong Yanjin incredulously.

Kong Yanjin's face was full of astonishment, not knowing what was happening.

Xue Xuan's forehead was drenched in sweat, and the matter was serious!

Judging from these letters alone, could it be that the Yan Shenggong, who he has been trying to protect, really has an inexplicable relationship with the Mongols?

Otherwise, why don't you refuse the Mongols' demands one by one, but leave room for each word?

How is that good......

Kong Yanjin couldn't hold it back for a long time, and stepped forward and asked, "Lord Xue, I don't know ......."

"The official wants to ask you!"

Xue Xuan calmly handed over the letters: "How should these letters be explained?" ”

When Kong Yanjin saw the contents of the letter, his expression had changed greatly, and he hurriedly said, "These, these...... It may be the ancestral ......"

As he spoke, he was sweating profusely, and his hand holding the letter trembled a little.

"Ancestor...... I, I don't know ......"

"If you want to say that you don't know why the last few Yan Sheng Gong had fornicated letters with the Mongols, then well, three of them are your own letters, how can you explain it?"

Kong Yanjin gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know about these letters at all, someone must have forged them!" ”

Xue Xuan was not stupid, and said angrily: "You mean, someone forged your handwriting to write a letter, and then hid it in Yingchang City, Mobei, thousands of miles away?" ”

"It must be...... Yes, it must be Jinyi Wei, they first beat them into tricks, and when they saw that the three law divisions had reversed their confessions, they tried to find a way to frame them, Lord Xue, don't be deceived by them! ”

If it is admitted that there is correspondence with the Mongols, then the image of Yan Shenggong will definitely collapse, and it will be difficult to make a comeback!

Xue Xuan had just witnessed the whole process of the fall of his two colleagues, and his heart was in turmoil at this time, perhaps, the justice he had been defending was wrong?

Now that I think about it, what Jin Yiwei did was not despicable, and even above board.

The reason why Shilin Group is so vulnerable is because it has rotted to the bones.

Xue Xuan looked at Kong Mingbo and asked, "These letters alone can't prove the identity of Yan Shenggong, what evidence do you have, take it out together!" ”

He had already figured it out, and he tried his best to pull the shelf, but it turned out that he was being used by others and almost became an accomplice!

From now on, only look at the evidence, not the emotion.

No matter what kind of Yan Shenggong you are, even if Saint Kong crawls out of the coffin, as long as you can come up with evidence, I dare to judge!

Kong Mingbo took out another small cloth bag he carried with him and presented it.

"These are genealogies, miscellaneous records, logs, etc. left by the ancestors of the Kong family, please take a look!"

Xue Xuan took it, he has been reading since he was a child, and he has been dealing with books all his life, these books look very old at a glance, at least some years, first of all, the possibility of forgery can be ruled out.

Kong Mingbo stepped forward and opened the family tree.

"In the pre-Yuan period, the Mongols canonized Kong Zhiquan as the Yan Shenggong, which is the ancestor of the Yan Shenggong lineage in Qufu today."

Kong Yanjin's expression was grim, and he said: "Zhiquan Duke is the son of Yuan Yonggong and the nephew of Yuan Cuo Gong, what's wrong with inheriting the title of Duke Yansheng?" ”

"If it's really a full duke, it's okay, but it's ......"

Speaking of this, Kong Mingbo sighed and continued: "This Kong Zhiquan is a Mongolian fake! ”

"You ......" Kong Yanjin's face turned blue and white for a while, but he forced himself to calm down and said, "It's just ridiculous!" ”

Kong Mingbo ignored him and continued: "It is clearly written in this record, in the fourth year of Song Shaoxi, Kong Yuan gave birth to a son, Kong Zhiquan, who died early at the age of six. Since he died early, who is the one who attacked the knight? ”

"No...... No way! ”

Kong Yanjin's face began to turn red, and he roared: "You are a demon to confuse the public, and you have evil intentions!" ”

Xue Xuan looked carefully, this was a yellowed paper essay journal, which really recorded that Kong Zhiquan died early at the age of six.

Yes, since he died at the age of six, who is the one who is the heir?

If it was really the Mongols who stole the beams and changed the pillars, maybe it would explain what those letters were about.

Kong Yanjin was already angry, and said: "Lord Xue, you can't believe his rumors, my Kong family has been loyal and good for generations, how can there be such a bizarre thing." Kong Mingbo fabricated evidence, with ill intentions, and asked Lord Xue to take down this person and torture him severely! ”

Xue Xuan suddenly lost his mind, and couldn't help but look at the jury.

Zhu Qizhen still didn't speak, but his expression was also a little incredible.

It seems that the emperor has just learned the news.

Xue Xuan thought for a while, and then ordered: "Come on, take it!" ”

The left and right messengers stepped forward, picked up the chains and walked towards Kong Mingbo.

Zhu Qizhen's face changed, but he still endured and didn't speak.

Belin hurriedly said, "Lord Xue, what is Mr. Kong's crime? ”

Kong Yanjin finally breathed a sigh of relief and said coldly: "Isn't it enough to frame Zhongliang?" ”

Xue Xuan suddenly said: "Who are you arresting, I will let you take down Kong Yanjin, the Holy Father of Yan!" ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was surprised.

The messenger let go of Kong Mingbo, and as instructed, turned to get Kong Yanjin.

Kong Yanjin was shocked: "Lord Xue, you ...... Mistaken, right? ”

Xue Xuan's expression was cold, and he said slowly: "Yan Shenggong, I'm sorry, the current evidence is very unfavorable to you, and before the Three Law Divisions find out what happened, we can only temporarily detain you!" ”

"Lord Xue, this person is clearly deliberately framed, you can't trust him!"

"Enough!"

Xue Xuan shook the wood in shock: "This is the Three Law Division, how does this official interrogate, I don't need you to point fingers!" Come on, escort people down to await trial, and leave the court! ”

The sensational triage of the three divisions came to an end, Zhu Qizhen got up and went back to the palace, and the others left one after another.

However, the onlookers seem to be unsatisfied, what is the result, give me a good word!

Xue Xuan is now completely dead, he doesn't want to shield anyone anymore, he just wants to find out the truth.

So, he brought Kong Mingbo back to Dali Temple, and convened relevant people from the Criminal Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to discuss the situation together.

In addition, he also sent someone to Beizhen Fusi to ask Jinyiwei to assist in handling the eucalyptus.

This time, it was a sincere request for Jinyiwei's assistance, and the hostility and prejudice in the past had disappeared cleanly.

Jin Yiwei specially sent Zhu Ji to assist the three law divisions.

According to the clues provided by Kong Mingbo, the letters found by Ying Changcheng, plus some clues found from the Confucian Mansion, the three corroborate each other, and it seems that it is already very clear.

Next, the Kong family was interrogated one by one.

Since the problem lies in Qufu, someone in the Confucian family must know the truth.

Finally, Kong Chengqing was the first to confess.

He was already unable to escape death, and now he was about to be tortured, so he was the first to open his mouth and confess everything he knew.

With Kong Chengqing's testimony and interrogating Kong Yanjin, finally, the truth of the matter surfaced.

In that year, Kong Zhu categorically refused to be canonized, and the Mongols let a Mongolian change his name to Kong Zhiquan in order to make the world a lake, and inherited the title of Duke Yansheng in the name of Kong's descendants.

Under the protection of the Yuan court, the Holy Duke of Qufuyan multiplied like this, and continued to spread its branches and leaves.

After Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, he did not know the secret behind it, and in the seventeenth year of Hongwu, he canonized Kong Ne as the first generation of Yan Shenggong of the Ming Dynasty.

When the Mongols withdrew to Mobei, they still thought that one day they would be able to re-enter the Central Plains and recover the Great Yuan, so they naturally thought of the Yan Shenggong in Qufu.

In the second year of Jianwen, Kong Ne passed away, and his son Kong Gongjian succeeded him as Yan Shenggong.

In the eighth year of Yongle, Kong Gongjian passed away, and Kong Yanjin became the third generation of Yan Shenggong of the Ming Dynasty.

During these three generations of Yan Shenggong, the Mongols exchanged letters many times.

However, since the Mongols have retreated to Mobei, it is so difficult to re-enter the Central Plains!

Therefore, the attitude of the three generations of Yan Shenggong towards the Northern Yuan is that if they leave, I don't agree, I don't refuse, I just deal with it first.

If it weren't for the fact that the Mongols still held the secret of the Holy Duke of Qufuyan, I am afraid that they would have completely severed relations with the Northern Yuan Dynasty a long time ago.

In the fourteenth year of orthodoxy, he also waved his army south, and the Kong family secretly provided a large amount of grain and grass.

If that time, the Mongols broke through the Jingshi, I am afraid that the Yan Sheng Church would take the lead in descending the table.

However, the situation of the battle suddenly reversed, and the emperor himself led the army to fight a bloody way, and the battle was defeated first.

This is not all, in the next year, the emperor once again drove the expedition in person, destroying all the way, and it only took less than half a year for the Northern Yuan Dynasty to be completely destroyed.

Kong Yanjin, who was far away in Qufu, was both excited and worried when he heard the news.

What is exciting is that no outsiders will know the secrets of the Kong family from now on, and they and their descendants can be the Holy Father of Yan with peace of mind and enjoy the grace of the country.

The fear was that in case the Mongols sold themselves......

As time went by, the emperor returned to the dynasty and did not mention the matter, so he was relieved.

Who would have thought that people did get some clues at that time, but they didn't think about it so much, so they didn't delve into it for the time being.

To this day, I can no longer hide it, so I have to confess everything.

Xue Xuan reported the results of the triage of the three divisions to the cabinet for approval, and then the celebrant sealed it, and then announced it to the world.

Qufu Yan is in the same vein as the Holy Father, bullying the king, collaborating with the enemy, financing the enemy, plotting rebellion, committing adultery, plundering, and murder......

Punishment for several crimes, the nine clans will be punished!

The entire Qufu Kong clan was completely eradicated, not only that, but the three Yan Shenggongs who had been canonized since the Hongwu period were all removed!

The title of Yan Shenggong was succeeded by the Kong clan of Quzhou.

Kong Mingbo became the first Yan Shenggong of the Ming Dynasty, and returned to Qufu with the family scroll and the wooden statue of the Confucian saint to worship the saint's incense.

However, only the title was retained, and the title was removed.

From then on, Yan Sheng Gong only represented honor and no longer had any real power.

This result is quite acceptable for people all over the world.

Because the person who deceived the king and did all the bad things was Kong Yanjin, and the name of Yan Shenggong was inherited by the orthodox descendants of Kong.

These three words are the totem of the reader, as long as the totem does not fall, there is still hope.

During this period, the busiest is Jinyiwei.

The smuggling of eucalyptus in Jiangnan implicated tens of thousands of people, and it has just stopped, and now it is going to confiscate the Qufu Kong family.

Only the Confucian Mansion was copied in the front, but over the years, the Confucian family has flourished in Qufu, and there are at least tens of thousands of Confucian children.

These people can't kill them all, first check the lives of those in their hands, kill them directly, and exile the others to Mobei.

Anyway, it is Mongolian blood, and it is also appropriate to go to Mobei.

This is not counting, in the Beijing Division, the thorough investigation of Yu Shiyue, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, Yang Shan of the Zuodu Yushi and others, and it will cost a lot of manpower, and all the staff of the Beizhen Fusi are dispatched, and they are busy.

This eucalyptus was in an uproar, but Zhu Qizhen didn't bother to pay attention to it.

The trial has also been tried, the verdict has been judged, and the next thing is handed over to Jinyiwei, and he has to take someone to study the steam engine!

This thing has been successfully tested, and the next step is how to transform it, and get a locomotive out first.

A large base was built at the Xishan test site, and craftsmen from all walks of life gathered together to refine and improve various parts and components according to the sketches provided by Zhu Qizhen.

There are many aspects involved in the manufacture of trains, and the steam engine is the most important component, but the others are also indispensable.

For example, in order to find hard and wear-resistant steel, there is a special steel smelting workshop in the base, and different steel is forged every day for testing.

As the commander-in-chief, Zhu Qizhen is only responsible for providing ideas most of the time, and as for the details, they are all completed by the craftsmen themselves.

However, he was not satisfied with the progress, and even though he had gathered all the skilled craftsmen within a radius of hundreds of miles, it was still difficult and the progress was slow.

It seems that the current productivity is far from meeting the demand, and the reform of the New Deal is imminent.

It's time for a new imperial examination system!

PS: Again, this story is pure fiction!

Regarding the Holy Duke of Qufuyan, although when the Qing army entered the customs, he took the lead in surrendering the table, but there is no problem with the bloodline!

This book is for the plot, you can just watch it lively, if you are offended, don't blame it~
