Chapter 270: Use The Analects Of Confucius To Kill Saint, And Use The State To Punish Kong! [Please
In fact, if possible, Yan Changqing did not want to give the suggestion of appointing another Kong Sigong.
But if another Kong Sigong is not established, even if the Confucius family, a leader of Confucian scholars and literary circles, is eliminated now, new Confucian literary leaders of the Meng family, Yan family, Zeng family, etc. will still be born in the future.
At that time, Confucianism will still continue to expand and grow under the leadership of the new Confucian and literary leader families, and continue to seek more benefits and power.
Rather than letting them elect a new family of leaders of the Confucian and literary world, it is better to arrange a new, default leader of the Confucian and literary world for them now~.
Having Kong Sigong recognized by the imperial court as a moral model for the world and the orthodox inheritor of Confucius Sheng's thoughts is equivalent to a new leader in the world of Confucianism and literature.
But there are five Confucius in every selection. When the ideas and opinions of the five Confucius conflict, who should Confucian students and literary students listen to?!
Even if the five Kong Sigongs can reach a consensus, what will happen five years later?!!
Kong Sigong is selected every five years, and there are five Kong Sigong at one time, which is equivalent to one Kong Sigong per year.
If all these Kong Sigongs lived a hundred years, then there would be nearly a hundred Kong Sigongs coexisting in the world at the largest number.
When it comes to their own interests and the interests of their respective families, can so many Kong Sigong really continue to agree with each other and advance and retreat together for the collective interests of Confucianism?!!
Similarly, after dozens or hundreds of years, there will be dozens or hundreds of families in the world who are "the orthodox inheritors of Confucius and Saint".
By then, not all people will be descendants of the orthodox inheritors of Confucius and Saints, but at least the descendants of the orthodox inheritors of Confucius and Saints will be almost in ruins.
When the descendants of the orthodox inheritors of Confucius and Saints are almost equal to the bad streets, then the identity of the descendants of the orthodox inheritors of Confucius and Saints will naturally become worthless.
Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Yan Changqing's mouth.
Although he gave Confucian students and literary students all over the world a sweet bait visible to the naked eye.
But inside this sweet bait, there is hidden medicine that is enough to make it difficult for the world of scholars and literary circles to unify, and to make the family of orthodox inheritors of Confucius and Sheng no longer as noble as they are today, and completely fall into the mortal world!
But even if it is poison, all the civil servants, Confucian students and scholars present will not be able to help but swallow it.
Because this poison is so sweet!
After thinking for a moment, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Song Lian below and asked:
"What do you think of Mr. Jing Lian's suggestion of setting up another Kong Sigong?"
Zhu Yuanzhang only asked the civil and military officials what they thought of the second suggestion of the three suggestions he had just mentioned.
Because he would definitely adopt the first and third suggestions, whether the civil and military officials agreed with them or not, so it didn't matter whether he asked or not.
Song Lian, who had already finished thinking, heard Zhu Yuanzhang's question and said respectfully:
"This proposal is conducive to promoting the common people of the world to practice the ideological and moral principles of Confucius, courtesy, thrift, benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust, loyalty, filial piety, honesty, shame and courage. This is an act of moral education for the world, so I have no objection to this proposal."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, then looked at the civil and military officials and asked:
"Do you have any other ideas about this discussion?"
All the civil and military officials, noble marquises and marquises below all bowed their hands and saluted and replied respectfully:
"I all agree with this proposal and have no objections!"
What the civil servants said was true. After all, this proposal was obviously beneficial to them.
Maybe they will also have the opportunity to be honored as Kong Sigong in the future, who is a model of morality in the world and the orthodox inheritor of Confucius' thoughts.
Such a good thing, they have no reason to disagree.
Of course, in addition to this, they have some objections to the non-required prerequisite for competition "regardless of whether they have an official position, whether they have a title, whether they are literate or not, and regardless of their background and occupation."
Because if there are no "higher" prerequisites, then their competitive pressure will be too great.
It is equivalent to competing with 60 million people in the world for the five places of Kong Sigong that are held every five years.
For their own sake, they naturally hope to raise the prerequisites for the election.
But these are all small things, and we can slowly plan the tacit prerequisites for the Taigao competition in the future.
It is rare that Zhu Yuanzhang has the idea of agreeing to this proposal at the moment. Of course, he must take advantage of the moment to finalize and implement it quickly.
As for the military commanders and nobles, they also had big ideas. After all, they deposed Yan Shenggong and established Kong Sigong. In their opinion, there was basically no loss to the civil servants.
They even hoped to see that after deposing Yan Shenggong, they would no longer establish Kong Sigong.
However, the generals and nobles were not fools. They could naturally see that Zhu Yuanzhang was only asking for their opinions symbolically, and did not really want them to express different opinions, so they all agreed.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes finally fell on the Confucian students, literary students, and more than 100,000 people from all directions outside the high platform, and he said gently and down to earth:
"Do you all agree with the proposals that Mr. Yan just mentioned?!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was responded to by more than 100 Wanying Tianfu people and a group of Confucian students and literary students who responded in unison:
"agree!"
"Long live your Majesty!!"
"Long live your Majesty!!!"
The cheers of approval were as long-lasting as the endless waves.
After all, a group of Confucian students, literary students, and more than 100,000 Yingtian Mansion people are not fools.
The original title of Duke Yansheng was only inherited and controlled by the Kong family, and outsiders like them had no chance.
Although it is still difficult for them to obtain the title of Kong Sigong, no matter how difficult it is, they finally have a slight chance.
For them, having this slightest chance is enough to satisfy them.
Seeing the scene of more than 100,000 people in Yingtian Mansion shouting long live in approval, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but show a look of satisfaction on his face, and said happily:
"Then let's leave these few things behind. Later, we will finalize the specific regulations and then prepare a decree to announce it to the world!"
As Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, the three suggestions just mentioned by Yan Changqing were equivalent to being completely confirmed.
Kong Kebiao, who was on the high platform opposite Zhu Yuanzhang, was trembling all over. He pointed at Yan Changqing with trembling fingers, looked at Yan Changqing with extremely resentful and vicious eyes, and said with difficulty:
"You are so cruel!"
Yan Changqing shook his head and said calmly:
"How can it be that the Kong family treats the people of Qufu so harshly? The blood debt owed by the Kong family to the people of Qufu has not yet been repaid!!!"
Yan Changqing turned his head and looked at the Confucian students, literary students, and more than ten Wanying Tianfu people in all directions and said loudly:
"The so-called virtue of a gentleman will be beheaded in five lifetimes!"
"Even if His Majesty is the Son of Heaven, according to the provisions of the Ming Dynasty Royal Clan System, if the royal family members have not made great contributions to the court, even the children of the royal family members will become ordinary people after generation."
"The Emperor's Lake is like this, how can it be surpassed by the Saint's Lake?!"
"No matter how much Confucius left his legacy, it has lasted for fifty-five generations and should be exhausted!!!"
"Even though the legacy of Confucius has not been exhausted, the disciples of the Confucius family violated national laws and owed heavy blood debts to thousands of people in Qufu. They should be punished!!!"
.....................
Having said this, Yan Changqing looked solemn, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, bowed his hands and said:
"No matter how great the Saint's Land is, it cannot be greater than the laws and regulations of the country, and it cannot cover up the blood and tears of the people of Qufu under the Saint's Land!!!"
"Your Majesty, please use The Analects of Confucius to kill the unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and unjust Saint Zize of the Kong family in Qufu, Shandong!!!"
"Use the laws of the country to punish the illegal sons of the Kong family who oppressed the people in the fish and meat village!!!"
"Justice to the people of Qufu, justice to all people in the world!!!"
After Yan Changqing finished speaking, more than 100,000 people from Yingtian Mansion around him all spoke in response:
"Your Majesty, please kill Saint's Zee!!!"
"Condemn the children of the Kong family!!!"
“Return justice to the people of Qufu!!!”
The voices of more than 100,000 people in Tianfu poured out like a tide and lasted for a long time.
Seeing that more than 100,000 people responded to the public sentiments of Tianfu, Zhu Yuanzhang also looked solemn and majestic. His eyes fell on Mao Xiang and said solemnly:
"Bring the Analects of Confucius and the sword!!"
Within a moment, Mao Xiang had already hurriedly fetched a brand-new "The Analects of Confucius" and a three-foot long sword, and handed them to Zhu Yuanzhang's hands respectfully.
....O
Zhu Yuanzhang wrapped the long sword with "The Analects of Confucius", his eyes fell on Kong Xixue and Kong Kebiao, who were slowly waking up at this moment, and he made a false slash towards them, and said coldly at the same time:
"In the name of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, I kill the Saint of the Kong family in Qufu, Shandong, and abolish the name of the Saint of the Kong family Yan!!!"
"In the future, the Ming Dynasty will not give any additional preferential treatment to the children of the Kong family!!!"
"Children of the Kong family are not allowed to claim to be descendants of the bloodline of Kong Sheng!!!"
"Order King Zhu Fan of the Jin Dynasty to go to Qufu, Shandong Province with the Sword of the Analects of Confucius to go to Qufu, Shandong Province to conduct a thorough investigation of the Confucius family, together with the Imperial Procuratorate, the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and the Three Law Departments. No one can be missed!"
"All children of the Kong family who commit crimes will be dealt with strictly and severely in accordance with the law!"
"Other disciples of the Kong family who have not committed any crime will be sent to various places and become ordinary people who are loyal, filial, benevolent and righteous!"
On the high platform, Kong Xixue, who had just woken up, looked up to the sky and spat out a mouthful of blood again when he saw this scene. He fell straight back and lost his breath.
Kong Kebiao felt waves of dizziness and lay directly on Kong Xixue's body, his eyes lost focus and his expression was dull.
The ten disciples of the Kong family who were tied to the high platform collapsed and struggled wildly.
When dozens of Qufu people suffered, seeing this scene, they finally couldn't bear it anymore and all of them burst into tears.
Dynasty after generation, dynasty after dynasty.
No matter how many dynasties have changed in the past, for the people of Qufu, the sky above their heads has never changed.
For thousands of years, the Kong family has been like a dark cloud hanging over the hearts of the people of Qufu, keeping them from seeing the light of day.
Now, now, the dark clouds hanging over their heads have finally been pierced, and they finally see the light of the sun and moon belonging to the Ming Dynasty!
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Mr. Yan!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Mr. Yan!"
The people of Qufu kept kowtowing to express their gratitude. This was the only way they could think of to express their gratitude.
