Chapter 408: Counting sins in front of Kong Sheng(2/2)

Zhu Yunxi suddenly stretched out his hand.

"Going this way?"

Kong Gongjian and everyone in the Kong family who followed him, bowed their heads and carefully prepared to wait, were stunned.

The emperor's grandson's leap of words was completely unexpected.

Kong Gongjian had no choice but to look at the west door of his house and nodded respectfully: "Go back to Your Highness, you can enter the Confucius Temple through this door, but recently..."

He was about to say something about the recent chaos in the Confucius Temple due to Zhang Zhiyuan and his gang, which made it full of dust and looked quite messy.

Zhu Yunxi, however, jumped in and said, "When I was alone in the palace, I often exchanged articles with saints. Today I can worship all the saints, which is enough for my wish."

Immediately, Zhu Yunxi had already stepped out of the west gate of the Confucius Mansion and headed outside to the Confucius Temple.

It was probably during this season that a small door was opened on the east wall of the Confucius Temple to make it easier for people in the Confucius family to go to the Confucius Temple.

Pushing the door open, you will find Dacheng Hall, the main hall of Confucius Temple.

At this time, Dacheng Hall is not a later one, but it is also exquisitely built. It has five rooms, with glazed tiles on the top and glazed components.

A group of Wuyangyang people arrived in front of Dacheng Hall with their own thoughts.

The servants of the Kong family were already in a hurry and opened all the five rooms of Dacheng Hall.

In an instant, the tablets and portraits of the most holy teacher Kong Sage, as well as Confucian philosophers and sages were enshrined inside and displayed in the eyes of everyone.

At that time, the emperor's grandson wanted to pay homage to the saint Confucius. Although he came temporarily and had an impromptu intention, the Confucius family still tried their best, or in other words, the children of the Confucius family tried their best.

With just a tea stick incense, a complete set of procedures was basically prepared.

Zhu Yunxi was very serious, his attitude and appearance were extremely pious, and he followed the etiquette guidance and completed the entire process.

When he raised his head, the portrait of Confucius, wearing Confucian clothes, with big ears, thick nose, big teeth, sideways and bowed hands, was clearly reflected in front of his eyes.

He let out a long sigh, and his sigh contained a lot of unusual things.

Then, Zhu Yunxi snorted again.

When Zhu Yunxi turned around, Kong Gongjian and the people in the Kong family bowed their heads and stepped back.

Zhu Yunxi glanced at Kong Gongjian indifferently and took a few steps forward to reach the threshold. The group of people had already exited outside the Dacheng Hall.

Zhu Gaochi glanced around and bumped Zhu Shangbing's foot with his toe.

Zhu Shangbing turned his head, with confusion on his face.

Zhu Gaochi winked and motioned for Xiaohan to go outside and prepare for the situation.

But how could Zhu Shangbing understand this? He winked for a while.

And this time.

Zhu Yunxi's face was already livid, his face was extremely deep, and he said in a cold tone: "You stand in front of Confucius, don't you feel ashamed?"

Kong Gongjian, who had already had countless ideas, finally came to his senses.

The emperor's grandson is here to cause trouble.

I'm afraid the Kong family is really going to suffer this time!

The people from the Kong family behind him were also completely stunned.

After Kong Gongjian experienced the initial daze, he gradually calmed down. He led the Kong family members to kneel down silently in front of Dacheng Hall.

There was no confusion or anger on his face.

Kong Gongjian just folded his hands calmly and looked at Zhu Yunxi calmly: "I have been deeply favored by the emperor, and the place where I sleep is also built by your majesty. The Kong family is incompetent, and Duke Yansheng is already in the court.

The civil servants are the first, but they have no good ideas for governing the country to contribute to the court.

However, the ministers and others dare not forget the teachings of the sages and cultivate and educate the family. Under the apricot grove of our ancestors, there is still the sound of reading. In the school, the children can read and write. The Confucius family never forgets to nurture the younger generations, help neighbors, and open up schools.

Literary fortune is prosperous.

We dare not forget the words of our ancestors, and we have never forgotten our ancestors' great wishes. I don't know why His Highness the Emperor Taisun paid tribute to our ancestor Kong Sheng today. Why would you ask this question? This really makes me feel embarrassed."

Zhu Yunxi chuckled twice, and the expression on his face became a little calmer. He just asked calmly: "Can the Kong family really hide what they have done over the years from everyone? Or are you hiding it from yourself?"

Kong Gongjian spread out his hands, leaned over, kowtowed, and slapped the ground.

The Kong family members behind him spoke one after another: "I don't know what crime we have committed to make His Highness so suspicious."

Kong Gongjian then shouted: "I would like to ask your highness for a clear warning. There are more than a thousand people in the Kong family. They are loyal to the Ming Dynasty. They remember the kindness of the court day and night and are diligent in the king's loyal affairs. If there is any treacherous and fawning instigation, please have your highness's discernment and tell all the scholars in the world to take a look."

, what a treacherous person he is, actually..."

"enough."

Zhu Yunxi was a little tired, because he had been rushing around for days, and because he was tired of these flies and dogs playing tricks on each other, he said something in a low voice and waved towards the outside of Dacheng Hall.

Then, Zhu Yunxi looked at Kong Gongjian who was interrupted by him.

This almost undisputed and only next Duke Yansheng actually tried to use all the scholars in the world as excuses and explanations.

Zhu Yunxi sneered, but made no further moves.

In his eyes, Kong Gongjian was not Yan Shenggong, but just an ordinary person, and a person with a short life expectancy.

And following his wave, a series of footsteps could be heard from outside the main entrance of the Confucius Temple.

The footsteps passed through the Dacheng Gate, the Apricot Altar, and all the way to the outside of the Dacheng Hall.

It was a group of Jin Yiwei officers and soldiers, but it was led by Tian Mai.

The arriving Jinyiwei officers and soldiers arrived in groups of four, carrying a mouthful of wooden boxes, in front of Kong Gongjian and others.

Zhu Yunxi picked a box, walked out of the hall, and landed on it. Then he tilted his head and looked at the statue of Kong Sheng in the hall, and raised his voice and said: "Come, close the door of the hall, don't dirty the saint's eyes."

."

The officers and soldiers immediately stepped forward and tightly closed the doors of the five-bay Dacheng Hall.

At this time, Zhu Yunxi kicked away the front box.

"Kong Zhaowen, do you want to see what's in these boxes?"

Zhu Yunxi stared at Kong Gongjian sarcastically and asked teasingly.

Ever since the officers and soldiers came in with the boxes, Kong Gongjian had already buried his head on the ground, with a strong premonition growing in his heart that the Kong family might be in trouble this time.

When he heard the question, Kong Gongjian silently raised his head. He could only see that there were many account books in the box, so he replied: "They are books."

Zhu Yunxi chuckled: "Do you know what you wrote?"

Kong Gongjian's legs on the ground twitched twice. He once again leaned over and lowered his head: "I don't know."

"They say that they are all from the Confucius family, a family of saints that has been passed down for thousands of years. Everything they have done in these years, even..." Zhu Yunxi's voice sounded outside the Dacheng Hall where the Confucius saint was installed, and there was the sound of paper being turned during the period: "

Oh! There are even those shameful things done by the Kong family in the Yuan Dynasty here!"

After receiving the last message, Zhu Yunxi's voice suddenly became angry, and the account book in his hand was slapped heavily on the wooden box.

"The Ming Dynasty has only been twenty-eight years, and the Kong family has more than doubled their land. You guys are really cruel!"

Outside the Dacheng Hall, many Jin Yiwei have arrived, and everything is silent. The person in the corner who originally wanted to sneak out to report the news has been knocked down by two Jin Yiwei.

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Shangbing were leaning in the shade in front of the palace, with their hands in their pockets, staring at the Kong family members indifferently.

From the moment they left Luoyang City and came to Shandong Road, the fate of the Kong family was already doomed.

Zhu Yunxi picked up another account book and took a deep breath: "It's a good day today. How about doing the same thing in front of Kong Sheng, carefully, and counting the sins you have committed!"

"

"In twenty years, half of Yanzhou Prefecture in the Ming Dynasty belonged to your Kong family. Where did the taxes from the imperial court come from? The border troops shed their blood outside the Great Wall. How many people were there?

Those who went out to Yanzhou, will they know when they come back that all their land belongs to your Kong family?"

"The family did not remember the birth of a child. There was a beautiful girl in the countryside, so she and Luo Hongqian were brought to the mansion for training. She thought... she thought she was elegant?"

"This is what you people who claim to be the descendants of saints have done!"

Zhu Yunxi just flipped through the records about the crimes committed by the Kong family that were verified by the secret guards, and he couldn't stand it anymore.

He angrily took down the account book, stood up, and paced back and forth in front of the hall.

There are five or six boxes, all of which record the words and deeds of the Confucius family over the years. What they have done is really too numerous to describe!

Kong Gongjian finally panicked.

The Kong family members behind him were also afraid.

Everyone was squirming on the ground like maggots.

"Your Highness, please spare your life!"

"Your Highness, please forgive me. We know that we are guilty. Please, Your Highness, please let me go..."

Zhu Yunxi had no intention of letting these people go. He kicked a box in front of him to the ground. The scattered account books blocked Kong Gongjian who was about to crawl in front of him.

And he said in a cold voice: "Come here, read it one by one for the people in the Confucius Mansion."
