Song Li frowned, and his mind kept churning. He was about to enter Beijing from Nankong, and the government and the public were in an uproar. Everyone was no longer shocked.
Everyone knows what kind of virtue we have today.
It would have been easier if he was just an emperor, but there was an unscrupulous Xu Jingchang next to him.
No one can bear it if the king and his ministers get into trouble together.
As long as Nan Kong comes to Beijing, he will definitely make a big fuss.
It's unimaginable what things can be done.
The only way is to let Nan Kong retreat when he sees the difficulties. As long as they don't interfere, no one can do anything about it... Just like when Xu Jingchang was determined to be a salted fish, even Yao Guangxiao was helpless.
As long as I'm useless, no one can take advantage of me.
But Kong Yi was tempted again.
When Song Li heard that the topic had returned to the Nishan Hongru Society, his head suddenly got big.
The emergence of the Nishan Hongru Society just catered to the mentality of the people and filled everyone's curiosity about history and reality.
"Sir, Nanzong has always been loyal and loyal. He carried treasures to the south and gave up his title... two acts of righteousness. He is worthy of being a descendant of a saint and a model of Confucianism. In the heart of every scholar, there is a steelyard, knowing that Nanzong's conduct is ancient and different.
Ordinary..."
But the problem lies with the emperor, the supreme ruler of the Ming Dynasty. He is unhappy when the civil servants form cliques for selfish purposes. He needs to talk to Nishan Hongruhui and beat the courtiers.
Song Li thought he was shaken and went further: "Now Duke Yansheng is young and unable to take charge of the affairs. Nankong brought the treasure to Beijing and presented it to the emperor. Naturally, they would misunderstand him. They would think that Nankong wanted to please the emperor and replace him.
This will inevitably lead to disputes between the two Kong clans, which is really not a blessing for the world. Mr. Sir is of honest character and does not care about fame and fortune. He must have been deceived by a traitor and was deceived!"
This is like when cleaning the large intestine, part of the original flavor is retained...
This is a contradiction, and no one can avoid it.
This fictitious thing is really frustrating.
These courtiers will sooner or later be given the title of Nishan Hongruhui...
When it is discovered that the Hongwu case was Emperor Taizu's helpless move to eradicate the Nishan Hongru Society, things will be complete.
Time seemed to be silent, Kong Yi didn't speak, and Song Li bent over, just in a stalemate.
And it’s not just ordinary, they have lost their integrity!
They bowed their knees to the barbarians, served the Jin people, and worshiped the Mongols... As a descendant of the Master, he forgot his loyalty and filial piety and lost his integrity.
One sentence made Song Li blush again.
Soon Zhu Dazhuang came with a smile. Since he lost dozens of pounds of fat, Zhu Gaochi can walk faster, walking like a dragon and walking like a tiger, looking majestic and majestic.
And in the court, there are people like Chen Ying, who are jumping up and down, hoping to please His Majesty the Emperor by investigating and forming cliques for personal gain, as a shortcut to the south...
"Please tell me."
Of course, if that's all it is, it's just a rumor and has nothing to do with it.
What a great overall situation!
"I feel a little sorry for coming here this time." Zhu Gaochi said: "Originally, my father rewarded you with a royal brush, but after thinking about it carefully, it was wrong. I was afraid that it would trap you in injustice... That's why I asked Gu to come over and ask for the royal brush.
, I hope Duke Kong will forgive me."
But when it comes to the Nishan Hongru Society, the situation is different.
Kong Yi turned around and ran to the back room, leaving only a bleak figure behind...it was very rude and desolate.
Although this matter is nonsense, it perfectly explains a problem, that is, why literati in the past dynasties like to form parties for personal gain. Why do so many literati get together to influence the government and the world?
Why do these literati speak in unison and coordinate with each other...
But at this moment, news suddenly came that Prince Zhu Gaochi had arrived.
"Uncle Da Zong, have you heard about the Nishan Hongru Society?"
In fact, it is not difficult to solve this matter... As long as the courtiers can submit a memorial and require the officials and gentry to pay for the service together, handle everything impartially, and put themselves on the same level as the people, and no longer stand above them, it will be solved easily.
When Song Li was about to be unable to hold on anymore, Kong Yi suddenly sighed and said dejectedly: "I understand, please don't worry, Uncle Zong."
Even if you speak out, you will face the tragic end of being ruined and ruined. There are absolutely no exceptions.
The two forces were entangled together, attacking from inside and outside, and put the civil servants on the fire.
This made Song Li extremely painful, "You are a descendant of a saint, the hope of the world!"
Now that the Northern Song Dynasty has developed, some people are exploring the connotation from Qingli's New Deal and Wang Anshi's Reform. They are analyzing the ideas, propositions, governance concepts, and ideological changes of the Nishan Hongru Society.
Kong Yi opened his mouth but said nothing.
At first, many people thought it was nothing special. It was just about an outsider who recruited disciples, assisted Mingjun, and founded a holy dynasty... There are a lot of such stories in story novels.
In this way, the Battle of Jingnan was justified and beyond reproach.
Kong Yi added: "In that case, why doesn't the court arrest people and why doesn't it stop the rumors?"
It was obvious that I had made the right choice, and that I had spent more than three hundred years of perseverance.
Don’t you feel guilty for doing this?
After all, Song Li was also a scholar and held a high position as the Minister of Rites. When he said this, he was already stuffing the original large intestine into his mouth.
For something like this, you can tell it's true or false at a glance, and no one will care.
For example, Patriarch Wang Ao accepted Sun Bin as his apprentice, and Old Mother Lishan accepted Empress Wuyan, Fan Lihua, Liu Jinding, Mu Guiying... almost all the female generals in the novel are her disciples.
.
That imperial pen is nothing, what they want is affirmation, recognition and respect.
Song Li had a sullen face and said angrily: "These are all rumors spread by someone behind the scenes with ulterior motives and are false. Don't worry about it."
Song Li was disturbed by the sudden questioning, "This matter is very complicated. The Yamen has already investigated it, arrested hundreds of people, and put them all in jail. The government and the public are very concerned about it, and we are doing our best..."
There is not much time left for everyone. If there is another Yuan Dynasty, it is necessary to analyze the founding ministers of the Ming Dynasty.
Can you still eat it?
What's more terrifying is yet to come. If the Northern Sect's identity is abolished and the Southern Sect takes over the position of Yan Shenggong, there will still be problems, that is, the Southern Sect merges with the Northern Sect, and a situation similar to the Zhu family occurs in the saint's family.
He even wanted to get up and retreat in shame.
Song Li's voice was low, but Kong Yi's eyes widened in an instant, and flames of anger spewed out from his pupils... He quickly suppressed the anger again, and said in a low voice: "Did Uncle Zong talk about Yubi?"
First of all, this is a Confucian organization, not a mythical figure like Patriarch Wang Ao or Our Lady of Mount Li... Secondly, this rhetoric has become very complete with the tinkering of many enthusiastic people.
Therefore, if you play the Nanzong card, the consequences will be simply devastating.
After saying that, Song Li stood up and bowed deeply to Kong Yi.
OK!
We focus on the overall situation.
Song Li was startled, then nodded and said: "Yes. Sir, this first family of loyalty and filial piety can only be the Kong family, it is not unique to the Southern Sect!"
Who is the direct descendant of the Master?
And there is another layer: the Southern Sect is respected by others and has received this honor, which in turn reminds people that the Northern Sect is in disgrace!
Song Li was going to continue talking, but Kong Yi suddenly whispered: "Uncle Da Zong, do you mean to do it again and again and then a third time?"
"Please also ask Nan Zong to consider the overall situation and put Confucianism first!"
Kong Yi struggled to give instructions to his family, and everyone in Nankong who came with him was shocked?
Why?
Why hand it back?
We deserve this!
"Don't ask too many questions, just be honest and obedient!"
Song Li was stunned, it was broken, it was completely broken!
After Song Li explained the truth, he thought that the Confucius Council had suddenly woken up. However, this descendant of the Confucius family, who was almost like an old farmer, lowered his head and said nothing for a long time: "What Uncle Zong said is absolutely true, but there is something that ordinary people don't understand.
I hope Grand Uncle Zong can clear up his doubts."
It has historical data support, character backgrounds, stories of the two Han Dynasties, the split of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the rejuvenation of the Sui and Tang Dynasties...all included.
There is no problem that Duke Yansheng rewarded the lineage of Confucius...Zhu Di's imperial pen was given to Nanzong, and this is only natural.
Kong Yi was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said quietly: "Uncle Zong, this royal pen is given to our ancestors to carry treasures to the south, and it is a reward for the loyalty of our lineage for more than three hundred years after Jingkang. Now the Ming Dynasty has restored China.
, expel the barbarians. The ancestors can keep the clouds clear and see the moonlight. On the day of family sacrifices, you can use the royal pen to comfort the ancestors... Uncle Zong, do you have to take this back? Our Southern Sect can't even have this dignity?"
To sum up this mess, the core thing is that the civil servants and gentry group took too much. The emperor was not happy with it, and the people at the bottom below were not happy either.
It's a pity that no one would do this kind of thing no matter what.
"The pure will be pure by themselves, and the dirty will be dirty by themselves. The court will definitely investigate thoroughly. It is our duty to protect the reputation of the saint. It is naturally a good thing for sir to offer the Three Treasures. But I also want to ask sir for help to hand over another thing.
…Or maybe it’s stated that this is for the Kong family.”
Try your best, but it has no effect, but it gets worse!
Kong Yi was not Xu Jingchang, and he would not speak harshly, but he also disagreed in his heart.
The more you explain, the more people will believe it.
Everyone in Nankong was stunned and hurried to greet him.
But the matter was too serious, and there was no way to let it go like this... With no choice, Song Li could only bite the bullet, and with the most shameless attitude, he said something that made him blush.
"Tomorrow, Mr. Mian, take the imperial pen and return it to Your Majesty!"
When I saw everyone in Nankong, I was the first to say hello.
But he just couldn't get it, not only for himself, but also for Nan Kong's ancestors... In order to prevent the Confucian family from splitting, the Confucian family to lose face, and the scholar-bureaucrats to lose their moral high ground, they were wronged and asked to put the overall situation first!
No need to ask, it’s Xu Jingchang again, this bastard, his skills are really amazing!
Since the Confucius Mansion was divided into two sects, the north and the south, although they tried their best to maintain them, they were still two sects... and they made different choices during the Jingkang crisis.
There must be a force behind it.
Why are the honest people the ones who suffer?
But when the Northern Sect held the reputation of Duke Yansheng, and the Southern Sect had the reputation of being the first family of loyalty and filial piety, this happened.
In fact, the more we arrest people and the more severe the punishment, the more widely it spreads.
You asked me to care about the reputation of the Confucius family, but how come you disciples of Confucius and Mencius can't uphold the reputation of the saints? You can't do it, and you teach me a lesson in return. Does this make sense in theory?
Kong Yi said: "Uncle Zong, the common people came to the capital this time to offer the Three Treasures, just to clarify the weird rumors about Suihou Pearl and Virtue Sword. Moreover, Confucianism is based on loyalty and filial piety. It controls the country, the country, the world, and changes the dynasty...
This kind of thing is something that the Confucian family would never do under any circumstances. The theory of the Nishan Hongru Society is really unbelievable and contains evil intentions."
Zhu Di actually took it back!
Kong Yi was shocked, but relieved. Finally, he didn't have to embarrass himself. Your Majesty is truly a benevolent king.
"The common people thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, His Royal Highness!"
Zhu Gaochi stretched out his hand to help Kong Yi, and said with a smile: "Everyone knows that Mr. Kong is very righteous... No one can preside over the Martyrs' Shrine in Peiping except you, so don't refuse this matter."
