After five years of teaching support, Daming became an empire on which the sun never sets.

Chapter 313
"Report to father." Liu Lian said, "Yan Shenggong, Zhu Yuandian, and Cheng Leshan were arrested by the emperor, and they were imprisoned in a prison car, and they are parading the streets in Yingtian Mansion."

"What!? The emperor actually imprisoned the three sages, Yan Shenggong and Cheng Zhu, in the prison cart!? And paraded through the streets!" Liu Bowen immediately stayed where he was when he heard the words, and the pen in his hand slipped involuntarily.

"All the sages have been paraded in the streets, and the thousand-year-old Confucian culture of my Han family has been desecrated."

"Father, it's not just that." Liu Lian said eagerly, "The emperor wants to put them in the sky prison, and let the civil servants draft a hundred heinous crimes committed by Kong, Cheng, and Zhu, all of which should be punished by the nine clans."

"It is a thousand-year cancer of the Han family to say that they have harmed the people for thousands of years."

Millennium cancer?Liu Bowen was dumbfounded.

"Furthermore, the emperor will execute Cheng and Zhu's families, Zhu Yuandian and Cheng Leshan will be executed, and Yan Shenggong will be driven to the West." Liu Lian continued, "In addition, their ancestors will be cast into white iron kneeling statues. , Kneel down for thousands of years!"

"I also want to burn all the books of Cheng Zhu Neo-Confucianism. This is imitating Qin Shihuang's 'burning books'!"

"It's over, it's over!" Liu Bowen's voice was old and weak, and he felt dizzy for a while, and almost fainted. Liu Lian hurried over to help him, "The emperor is too cruel."

"Since the beginning of the Renaissance, my father has long guessed that the emperor will suppress Confucianism." Liu Bowen said, "But I didn't expect this day to come so fast and so violently!"

"The emperor's means are like a thunderbolt from the blue sky resounding through the sky, like a sharp sword piercing the sky!"

Rumble!
Suddenly the sky changed outside, and the depressing thunder rolled in midair like a wheel.

It indicates that a huge storm is coming, and Tianlei will use its spirit of righteousness, nine heavens to respond to Yuan, and the sound of thunder to sweep away the millennium haze, evil spirits and ghosts in Kyushu, China, and all the ghosts in the world.

"No, this is not a suppression, but a thorough sweep!" Liu Bowen said, looking at the weather outside, and said, "The culture of China is really going to change!"

"Your Majesty, there will be a strong reaction from scholars all over the world, and the whole country will condemn it."

"The Ming Dynasty is about to face the impact of monstrous waves."

"The emperor took this step too fast and too fast, and I don't know if Daming can withstand the stormy impact of the world's scholars. If he can't bear it, the world will be in chaos."

"Father, Confucianism is the root of the world's scholars." Liu Lian said, "The world's scholars will never agree with the emperor to do this. If our roots are cut off, we are like headless flies, like duckweed without roots. "

"I have made a collective decision with hundreds of scholars in Yingtian Mansion to go to the palace to petition together. I implore the emperor to release the three sages, restore the reputation of Confucianism, and respect Confucianism again."

"Now these scholars are waiting outside. They want father, Gao Qi, Song Lian, you three great scholars to take the lead."

"No!" Liu Bowen almost roared, "I can't show my head as a father."

"I can't go because of my father, and neither can you!"

"Father!" Liu Lian yelled, "My son and all the scholars in the world have read Confucian sage books since elementary school. And today the emperor will destroy Cheng Zhu's nine clans, expel Yan Shenggong to the West, and burn books!"

"The Confucian beliefs that I established since I was a child have been severely desecrated."

"The five elements of Confucianism of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith collapse, and Mount Tai will collapse." Liu Lian burst into tears after speaking, "The Confucian sages have taught us scholars to sacrifice our lives for righteousness and sacrifice our lives for benevolence."

"Now, it's time for us scholars to sacrifice our lives for righteousness, and sacrifice our lives for righteousness."

"Boy, since the Renaissance started, you should read more books about the Renaissance." Liu Bowen said, "It is inevitable that the emperor will do this today! Since the day he supported the Renaissance, it is inevitable that Confucianism will be suppressed." occur."

"It's just that this day came too fast, and the emperor's methods are too fierce."

"The emperor has already started burning books, so it will..."

"Father, do you mean cheating Confucianism?" Liu Lian's face changed color.

"With the emperor's killing and decisiveness, do you think he dare not?" Liu Bowen said.

"The matter this time is indeed too big. It is indeed the biggest event in more than 1000 years. It has changed the color of the world and made the sun and the moon dark." Liu Bowen said, "I am currently in a state of confusion as a father. Any way."

"However, we must stick to one thing."

"At any time, don't go against the emperor."

"Who is the emperor?"

"Even if a thousand or ten thousand people are beheaded, he is still the master with no waves."

"No, I must go." However, Liu Lian was very stubborn, "Even if I was killed by the emperor, I would still petition the three sages. Even if I died, I would still be a scholar with integrity and leave a name in history." .”

"Confused!" Liu Bowen yelled, "Wang Lei, the scholar who opposed the emperor's expedition to Goryeo, is he famous in history?"

"Now the whole country is calling him short-sighted, and he deserves to be punished by the nine clans."

"Wang Lei was raped and beheaded by all the families, and he ended up with a bad reputation for a long time. You want our Liu family to do the same!"

"Father, can't it be like this?" Liu Lian said, "The emperor's expedition to Korea was a great talent..."

"Did you see the great talent of the emperor at the beginning? Didn't you think that the emperor's conquest of Goryeo was militaristic and did not respect Confucius' 'cautious war'? You gradually changed your mind later." Liu Bowen said coldly, "Expedition The Koryo incident is like this, so why is there no such possibility this time!?"

"Father, you support the emperor..." Liu Lian trembled.

"Wei father didn't say anything." Liu Bowen said, "Go out and tell those students that Wei father is sick, very sick."

"Father, you are a role model for scholars in eastern Zhejiang and a model for scholars in the world. You are also one of the three famous Confucian scholars in the early Ming Dynasty. Such an evasive style may be hard to escape from the public, and scholars all over the world will not believe that your father is sick. ..." Liu Lian said.

When Liu Bowen heard this, he felt the pressure was as great as a mountain.

He is one of the leaders of scholars in the world, and his reputation resounds throughout Ming Dynasty.

He is the first choice for the emperor to suppress Confucianism, and he is the one who leads everyone to stand up for Confucianism.

So at this moment, Ying Tianfu's scholars have blocked the door of the house, forcing him to take the lead.

If he doesn't take the lead in the charge, he can't justify it.This clumsy trick of pretending to be sick can't even fool a three-year-old child.He chooses to escape at this moment, if the scholar side wins, it will definitely be infamous forever.

"This is to put my father on fire! I can't even escape." Liu Bowen lamented, "Could it be that my Liu family must be punished? We people can never be the emperor's opponents."

What if I choose to stand on the side of the emperor?Suddenly, a bold idea came to his mind.

Standing on the side of the emperor is contrary to the beliefs he has cultivated since he was a child.He is over 50 this year and has read sage books for 50 years.It was really difficult for him to oppose Confucianism with the emperor for a while.
