Call of Heroes: A History Only I Know

Chapter 195 Unsolvable problem?Su Che's solution! (seeking subscription)

Long before the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Yan Sheng Gong Kong Xixue believed that the Mongolian Khan was the orthodox emperor, so against the background of the peasant uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the Kong family firmly stood by the Yuan Dynasty.

Even in order to protect the country and country of the Yuan Dynasty, the Kong family led the tribe in Shandong to organize group training, intending to "defend the family and the country"!
Such allegiance to the Yuan Dynasty is of course for its own benefit.

Due to the differentiated treatment system implemented by the Yuan Dynasty, the Kong family was powerful under the Mongolian rule.

Yan Shenggong was greatly respected by the Great Khan of the Yuan Dynasty and was a member of the ruling class of the Yuan Dynasty. Naturally, he looked down on Zhu Yuanzhang, who was born in poverty.

On the fourth day of March in the first year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, the father and son of the Kong family were captured by the Northern Expeditionary Army of General Xu Da, and they could no longer serve their father on the grassland.

After being captured, Duke Yan Sheng saw that the Yuan Dynasty was over, fled to Mobei, and came to the capital of the Ming Dynasty when he had no hope of returning. He had an audience with Ming Taizu and voted for the Ming Dynasty.

Because of his special status, he was not punished, and he was still conferred the title of Duke Yansheng as usual, but the territory has shrunk a lot, only a county of Qufu, which is completely incomparable with the previous monstrous power.

now.

Inside the Confucian mansion, all kinds of decorations are extremely luxurious.

Yan Shenggong sat on the high hall, the old god was there, looked at the few Confucian scholars who came in a hurry, and just smiled slightly: "Everyone, please sit down!"

Several great Confucian scholars came to this holy place to meet the descendants of the sage Confucius, and they didn't dare to do anything wrong. They saluted one by one before taking their seats.

After being seated, there was no exchange of greetings, and several great scholars quickly explained their intentions.

"Today's world despises the knowledge of sages, and even tries to re-establish the dispute among hundreds of schools of thought. This is something we absolutely don't want to see."

"It's a small thing to open a college, but it's absolutely unacceptable to provoke a dispute among hundreds of schools. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty is simply playing with fire and setting himself on fire!"

"Today's world is full of waste, and it is the time when we Confucian literati are governing the country and the country is safe, but the emperor despises our Confucianism so much, Yan Shenggong, you can't stand up this time."

"Yes, Lord Yansheng, the foundation of the saint has been shaken, do you want to see such a thing happen?"

"The literati in the world are all one. Even the emperor of the Ming Dynasty has to give in. If you stand up and say something, things will definitely turn around."

"Yan Shenggong, what do you think?"

Hearing the words of several great Confucians, Yan Shenggong Kong Xixue took it very seriously. With a gloomy face, he said slowly: "You are right, what the school should teach is the knowledge of saints, those heretical, low-level and low-level stuff, It is difficult to enter the elegant hall, but to open a school to teach, this is an insult to us, an insult to the scholars of the world, and an insult to the saint!"

"Even if you don't come, I already have this intention! Now that you are here, you can simply express your attitude: I am willing to be an example for the literati in the world, to advise the emperor, let him withdraw his order, and give the literati all over the world a face!"

Listening to Yan Shenggong Kong Xixue's words, several great scholars suddenly felt relieved, and hurriedly cupped their hands in praise: "Yan Shenggong is modest and righteous, we are willing to obey Yan Shenggong's arrangement!!"

"Okay." Yan Shenggong Kong Xixue said quickly: "Although our Kong family is still a descendant of a saint, our power has long been inferior to before, and the emperor of Ming Dynasty never put me in his eyes. Even if I stood up to persuade, It probably won't work either."

"The only way now is to unite the world's great scholars and all literati to persuade the emperor together!"

"The knowledge of a sage must never be allowed to be so defiled!"

Following Yanshenggong Kong Xixue's stand-up, and under his righteous and strict shout, scholars all over the world united to protest, hoping that the Ming emperor would take back his order!

The power of these people gathering together is something that no one can ignore, even the Emperor of Ninth Five!
Zhu Yuanzhang punished corruption, and he could kill blood like rivers without damaging the state.

However, compared with the scholars in the whole world, these corrupt officials are still much less, and they are not at the same level at all.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang cannot kill all the scholars in the world!
In that case, even Daming would have to be overthrown! !
In Yingtian Mansion, in the imperial palace, when Su Che saw this memorial, he couldn't help but sneer: "So you can't wait to make a move?"

The prince Zhu Biao on the side naturally knew the news, he couldn't help frowning, and he was restless.

Before that, Zhu Biao never expected that scholars in the whole world would unite together!
This is a very scary thing!

Once it is not handled properly, the whole country will be in turmoil.

With the emperor's character, it is absolutely impossible to retreat!
But if you don't retreat, how should you deal with it?

This thing is hard to deal with!
This is the first time that literati in these worlds have united together.

Their strength is very terrifying.

The attitude of the officials in the court is also very subtle.

After all, these officials were once scholars, and their roots are the same.

"Biao'er, have you seen that?" Su Che said with a sneer, "We just want to build some colleges that are useful to the country, and these literati are united to express their views. What do we want to do?"

"Especially this Yan Shenggong, who wants to become a model for scholars in the world, and force me to take back my life?"

"Who are they against?"

Zhu Biao's face was very ugly and he said: "They are against the father!"

"No." Su Che shook his head, and said seriously: "They are against the whole world..."

"These so-called literati are full of sage articles, for the country and the people, but in fact they are extremely dirty. For their own benefit, they do not allow other cultures to rise."

"Everything is inferior, only their sage knowledge is the highest, and they can only deceive ignorant people with such nonsense."

"We want the world to prosper and the people to live better, so no matter whether it is the knowledge of a saint or not, as long as it is useful, we must use it."

"Let the people farm better, grow better crops, produce more spiritual rice, let the private economy circulate better, let the apricot forests fill the world, let the court cultivate more people with both civil and military skills, and lessen the weak Song Dynasty. that way."

"What's wrong with this? Let them stand up and stop it like this? The words of those saints are actually all threats to us!"

Even Zhu Biao was aware of the nature of these literati at this moment, he was silent and didn't know what to say.

Su Che smiled coldly: "We need to let them know who is in charge of this world!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Biao's heart turned cold, and he hurriedly asked: "Father, what are you going to do?"

I just heard Su Che say slowly: "Down with the Confucius shop, save Confucius!"

As soon as he said this, there was a sudden thunder outside the house, dark clouds covered, and in the blink of an eye, bean-sized raindrops fell down.

Zhu Biao's eyes widened in disbelief, and he quickly said: "Father, are you planning to kill the Kong family? You can't do this... He is the root of the literati in the world. If you touch them, the consequences will be disastrous!"

As early as the period of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang passed by Ludi from Huainan, stopped for a short time, worshiped Confucius, and named Kong Teng, the ninth grandson of Confucius, as the "King of Sacrifice".

This is the first time a descendant of Confucius has been sealed.

Because the early Western Han Dynasty advocated Lao Tzu's "government by doing nothing" and respected "Huang Lao's learning".

Therefore, the Confucian school was not regarded as orthodox. The descendants of the Kong family did not have much privilege at that time, and "serving the king" was not a big official position.

Until the first year of Yuanguang, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Dong Zhongshu, a doctor of lectures in Taixue, proposed to "introduce Confucianism and suppress hundreds of schools".

That is what later generations said, "Depose a hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone".

This confirmed the orthodox status of Confucianism.

After that, Confucius' status rose steadily, and he was even crowned king in the Tang Dynasty, and the descendants of Confucius followed suit.

Since then, successive dynasties have sealed the descendants of Confucius to varying degrees.

The descendants of successive dynasties have been named as:
Chongsheng Hou (Western Han Dynasty).

Zong Shenghou (Cao Wei).

Feng Shenghou (Western Jin Dynasty).

Gong Shenghou (Northern Qi Dynasty).

Zou Guogong (Northern Zhou Dynasty).

Shao Shenghou (Sui Dynasty).

Wen Xuangong (Tang Dynasty).

Yan Shenggong (Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing).

Inherited from countless dynasties, the power of Confucian Mansion has long been like a pair of invisible hands, covering the whole world.

Even if the court wants to move the descendants of such saints, they can't move!
It's really going to be a big problem!

Don't you see, the sky is full of thunder just after saying these words?
Su Che is naturally aware of Zhu Biao's worries, but he also has his own way to deal with this matter!
Su Che said slowly: "It's impossible to kill the Kong family directly, but you can support another Kong family. Since the Kong family of the northern sect is not a good person, then support the Kong family of the southern sect!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Biao's eyes widened suddenly—is there such an operation?
Nanzong!

Let Nanzong and Beizong fight!
Zhu Biao couldn't help exclaiming: "Father, your method is so simple!"

This method is too inappropriate, it is extremely bad!

Of course, it is hard for Zhu Biao to say this, and he dare not say it.

The division between the southern and northern sects within the Kong family began with the political turmoil at the turn of the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty.

In the first year of Jingkang of Emperor Qinzong of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Jin regime established by the northern Jurchen aristocrats divided their troops and went south to encircle Bianjing, the capital of Song Dynasty.

In the following year, Bianjing fell, Emperors Hui and Qin were taken into captivity, and the Northern Song Dynasty perished.

This is also the shame of Jingkang in history.

Yue Fei once mentioned in "Man Jianghong · Raging the Crown": "The shame of Jingkang has not yet been snowed. When will the hatred of the courtiers be eliminated."

In that year, the two emperors and empresses were humiliated and died, and even the history books did not dare to describe it positively.

On the other hand, Kang Wang Zhaogou, the ninth prince of Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty, was located in Yingtianfu in May of the same year with the support of his old ministers. He was called Emperor Gaozong of Song Dynasty and changed his name to "Jianyan".

In the autumn of the second year of Jianyan, Emperor Gaozong of Song Dynasty moved to Yangzhou, and held a suburban sacrifice in November.

In this year, the 48th generation grandson of Confucius, Kong Duanyou, the Duke of Xifengyan, and his family member Kong Chuan accompanied them to participate in the sacrificial ceremony.

At this time, the Jin soldiers marched to Shandong, Henan, and Shaanxi in three routes.

In the second year, the Jin soldiers continued to invade the south and occupied all parts of Huaibei in the Central Plains. Emperor Gaozong of Song Dynasty hurriedly crossed the river and fled south to Lin'an Mansion in Zhejiang.

Kong Duanyou and Kong Chuan led the direct descendants of Confucius, and drove southward with the regular wooden statues of Confucius and Qi Guan's wife carved by Zigong.

Since then, the Confucius family has been divided into the Southern Sect and the Northern Sect.

There is a Yan Shenggong in the Jin Kingdom in the north.

In the south of the Song Dynasty, there was a Yan Shenggong.

Two Yan Shenggongs appeared in the world.

In the Yuan Dynasty, Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan Dynasty, wiped out the Southern Song Dynasty and unified the world. He believed that there should only be one Yanshenggong in the southern and northern sects of the Confucian family.

So he started to solve the problem of Kong's southern and northern sects.

Kublai Khan believed that the Confucian mansion of Nanzong was orthodox and the Dazong.

Therefore, Kublai Khan summoned the eldest son of the Kong family, Kong Duanyou, the descendant of the Southern Zongyan Shenggong Kong Zhu, to the capital of the capital, and asked him to return to Qufu to worship Confucius.

However, at this time, the pattern of Nankong emerged.

When Nan Kong went south, he didn't want to serve the Jin people. Now that the Yuan people ruled the world, he also didn't want to serve these Mongols.

Even if the price is to lose the title, and the family will not be able to recover from then on, it is not hesitating!

and so.

Kong Zhu said that "the descendants of Qufu have made great contributions to their ancestors in protecting the tombs of their ancestors", and stated that his six generations of ancestors had been tombed in Quzhou, built a family temple, lived in Quzhou for many years, and had his mother in the hall. At the same time, he said that the Kong family of the northern sect of Qufu was the king!
With such integrity, even Kublai Khan couldn't help feeling: he is a descendant of a true saint!

To some extent, it was Beikong who bowed his knees to the barbarians, first surrendered to the Kingdom of Jin, and then surrendered to Mongolia.

Later, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, Kong Yanzhi, the Duke Yansheng of the Confucian Mansion at that time, immediately presented the "First Entry Form", which flattered the Manchu monarchy, and showed his loyalty with sincerity and fear, and took the lead in shaving his hair and wearing strange clothes.

This also made the famous Shixiu Jiangbiao Yan Shenggong.

Shixiu's lowering of the table has become a traditional art of Beikong.

But all of this is what Bei Kong did, and has nothing to do with Nan Kong.

Nan Kong even established rules for future generations, forbidding future generations to compete with Bei Kong for the title of Duke Yan, and not allowing descendants of saints to kill each other for their own interests.

When Beikong inherited the title of Shenggong Yanyan for generations, enjoyed endless glory and wealth, and his fame reached the top...

On the other hand, after the Kong family of Nanzong lost its title, it gradually declined.

The family temple is unable to be repaired, the taxation of the sacrificed land is reintroduced, and it is difficult for the clansmen to enter the official career, so they can only sink and float in the academy and Confucianism promotions and other academic officials.

But even if he is poor, he is so poor that he has a backbone!
The Qi Festival of Nankong is rare in ancient and modern times!

How shameless is Beikong?

According to Su Che's knowledge.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China in modern times, as the orthodox Southern Confucianism, the ancestral wooden Kai statue of Confucius was exhibited outside.

But when this wooden Kai statue was exhibited in Shandong, it was taken away by the Confucian family in Qufu, and a replica was made for Nan Kong!
Quzhou Nankong requested the return of the heirloom Confucius wooden Kai statue, hoping that the wooden Kai statue could return to Quzhou.

The Qufu Confucian family believed that the Mukai statues, which had been living abroad for many years since Jingkang, should stay in Qufu!
Even in modern times... Beikong is still on the front line of shame.

In terms of the Dazong and Xiaozong, Nankong is the Dazong orthodox.

In terms of integrity, Nankong has no loss of integrity and is worthy of Huaxia.

In terms of culture, the Northern Kongfu emphasizes focusing on the basics and suppressing the poor, and scholars, farmers, and businessmen, and those who excel in learning can become officials, while the Southern Confucius emphasizes that business should be beneficial to industry, and the management of classics and history should be applied.

Since Nan Kong is unwilling to fight Bei Kong?Initiate a fight to snatch Duke Yansheng's title?

Well, if you don't fight, don't fight, if you don't grab, don't grab!

Su Che directly issued an order to abolish Duke Yan Sheng's title and deprive them of their political rights, and then asked Jin Yiwei to find evidence of Bei Kong's crime and settle the score slowly.

At the same time, Su Che canonized the Confucian family of the Nanzong as "Wenxuan Gong" and established them as the roots of scholars in the world. The reason is also very straightforward.

The Nanzong is originally the Dazong, and it is even a direct descendant, and there is also a wooden Kai statue of Confucius.

As for the Confucian family of the Beizong, Shixiu surrendered the table, how could there be any integrity, how could it be called Confucian orthodoxy?

As soon as this decree came out, all scholars in the world were shocked!
