Chapter 239
The believers carrying large logs came, and dozens of people carrying large logs hit the gate of Yansheng Gong Mansion. The rebel archers also arrived, and they opened their bows and shot arrows at the servants of Yansheng Gong Mansion on the walls and on the roof.
A scream rang out from the wall, and the servants of Yan Shenggong Mansion who were caught in the arrow screamed one by one and rolled down from the wall.
The gate was blocked by sandbags and stones. No matter how many rebels hit the gate and smashed the wood on the gate, they still could not invade the mansion.
"Breaking the wall open!" A scream suddenly sounded from the rebels.
The guy who called out was the unscrupulous and unscrupulous Gu Shixin. He walked over with two clay pots, and there was a fuse inserted in the clay pot. He walked to a person who looked like a little leader, put the clay pot on the ground and said, "Brother, let the brothers dig a hole in the corner of the wall, bury the clay pot, ignite the fuse and explode."
The little leader asked someone to do it according to the words of Gu Shixin, buried the clay pot underground, ignited the fuse, and quickly pushed it away.
"Boom" Two balls of fire splashed underground in the wall, and the sound of explosions like the sky collapsed and the earth cracked. Bricks and soil fragments flew into the sky. A large section of the wall collapsed in the explosion and turned into ruins.
"Kill!" The sound of killing sounds sounded. Shen Zhi, Zhang Jianbai and other White Lotus Sect leaders rushed into the gap with excited disciples. In front of them was the mountains of gold and silver in the Yansheng Gong Mansion. Many people who attacked Yansheng Gong Mansion actually ran away secretly with the mentality of stealing one. They never thought that Xu Hongru could really succeed and could still be named a minister? Even if Xu Hongru really became a great man, it would not be their turn to do things like Duke and Duke.
Kong Yinzhi's face was ashes, looking desperately at the thief pouring in from the explosion gap, as if he had seen his Kong family's family business for more than 500 years had been looted, and the entire Kong family fell into a sea of fire...
"Hurry up, top it up! Kill one thief and reward a thousand taels of silver!" Kong Yinzhi yelled hysterically.
A leader of the Kong family who wanted money and life roared and rushed forward, but was cut in half by Shen Zhi. The upper half of the body, which was cut in half, fell to the ground. Before he died, he rolled on the ground in pain.
Seeing this, the rest of the servants dared not go up there, so they turned around and ran away.
"Where are the soldiers and civilians outside the palace?" Kong Yinzhi pulled the county magistrate and asked at the beginning.
"They all fled to the residential areas on both sides." The county magistrate replied.
Qufu Yanshenggong Mansion is on the central axis of the city. There are Confucius Temple, Garden and Yanshenggong Mansion on the central axis, and there are private houses on both sides. The soldiers and civilians retreated back to both sides of Qufu City, and their own homes are their own homes. It is not their business if the demon thieves robbed the Yanshenggong Mansion. They just need to block the streets and alleys and prevent the thieves from robbing their homes. As for the Yanshenggong Mansion being robbed and burned up, it is nothing to them.
It is better to rob it all and burn it all. When the fire is extinguished, go to the ruins to search. Maybe you can find the property that has not been stolen by the demon thief.
The Confucius Temple, the Confucius Family Garden and the Yansheng Gong Mansion together are very large, accounting for one-third of the entire Qufu County. The road leading to the houses on both sides was blocked by soldiers and civilians who were still fighting with beasts. The bandits were too lazy to attack the residential areas on both sides, but directly looted the Yansheng Gong Mansion in the middle. Nonsense, if you put a piece of fat in the middle and don’t eat it, why go to the bones that are hard to chew on the side?
Kong Yinzhi turned around and ran away desperately. He fled all the way to Kuiwen Pavilion with several servants.
The remaining slaves fled into Kuiwen Pavilion, which was the library of the Kong Mansion. They could be placed on it and shoot outside with muskets and crossbows.
The bandits attacked several times, but were repelled by the Kong family slaves who were shooting from a high place. There were corpses in a row on the empty ground around Kuiwen Pavilion.
Chen Zhi attacked three times but failed, so the bandits came with a cannon that had been removed from the top of the city.
"Boom" a shell pierced the door, the doors and windows shattered, and a big hole appeared in the wall.
More sect bandits came with the tiger squat cannons that were removed from the city. The sound of cannons rumbling, and Kuiwen Pavilion was beaten to pieces, and the slaves guarding inside were seriously injured.
Helplessly, Kong Yinzhi continued to run back and escape into Dacheng Gate. Dacheng Gate was the last gate of the Confucian Temple. As long as the bandits attacked the bandits, even their underwear would be stripped away by someone. They could only watch the bandits rushed in and burned, killed and robbed.
Unfortunately, Dacheng Sect could not be defended, and there was no way. There were too many sect bandits staring with blood-red eyes outside. They rushed in, and the remaining servants could not resist it at all.
In desperation, Yan Shenggong Kong Yinzhi had no choice but to use his life-saving trick: kneel on the ground, kowtowed and shouted: "Welcome to the Heavenly Army of the Holy Sect! I, Kong Yinzhi, are willing to surrender! I, the Holy Sect Master, are the emperor!"
"Do you want to worship me as the emperor?" Xu Hongru laughed, "There is no basis for nothing! Do you dare to write a form of persuasion?"
"This..." Yan Shenggong was speechless.
"If you don't write it? That means you have no sincerity! I will kill your family!" Xu Hongru snorted coldly.
"Okay! I'll write, I'll write!" Yan Shenggong kowtowed repeatedly and begged for mercy.
Gao Shixin, who was hiding in the dark, saw all this in his eyes. He pulled Ling'er beside him: "Ling'er, let's go, Yan Shenggong is finished! Xu Hongru is doomed to fail. Yan Shenggong surrenders to the thief. This crime is quite serious! Even if he can survive, the court will not let him go! His property is not enough to be saved. The thieves outside are like hungry wolves with red eyes, and they promise to steal all his family."
"Where are we going?" Ling'er asked.
"You should escape in the chaos and go back to your south. After I finish my work, I have to go back to the Jinyiwei." Gao Shixin said.
"Then do we still have a chance to meet again?" Ling'er asked in a loss.
Gao Shixin suddenly hugged Ling'er in his arms, hugged her tightly, and kissed her gently on her forehead: "There will be a chance, you can come to the capital to find me at any time."
It seems that the Southern Sect of the White Lotus Sect has not caused trouble since Xu Hongru's demise. It was not until the Qing Dynasty unified the world that it joined forces with heaven and earth to start the anti-Qing and restoration activities. Gao Shixin believed that as long as Ling'er returned to the south, it would be safe. Since the Southern Sect of the White Lotus Sect has not caused trouble for the next period of time, the saint would not be in danger of being caught by the court.
Ling'er nodded: "If I have the chance, I will go to the capital." After that, she gently pushed Gao Shixin away, turned around and walked away, took a few steps, looked back, and then took two little maids dressed in men, mixed into a group of bandits, and scrambled out of the city, and walked south without looking back.
The trick he used at the critical moment was indeed effective. Xu Hongru had no intention of killing him, and he enthroned Yansheng Gong Kong Yinzhi in the name of a fake emperor and was still his Yansheng Gong.
However, Yansheng Gong’s Mansion needed to lose money and eliminate disasters. Given that the Kong family organized the servants and the people and Zhuang to resist stubbornly, causing significant losses to the Holy Church, this certainly needed compensation. Kong Yin’s vegetation was forced to bleed heavily. After some bargaining, Yansheng Gong first shamelessly wrote a "Commitment to Advocate" to Xu Hongru, praising the merits of Zhongfu Emperor Zhong. Later, he was forced to take out one million taels of silver, 200,000 taels of gold and 200,000 stones of food to calm the anger of the Holy Church. He was exchanged for the duke's seal and pseudo-imperial edict awarded by Xu Hongru to save his life.
However, many holy lands have been robbed in Yanshenggong Mansion, and many gold, silver and treasures, treasures, and treasures, and treasures, and treasures, and the simple peasant class has established deep revolutionary friendships with a large number of maids who are slaves, and revolutionary feelings beyond friendship have occurred.
Although the White Lotus Sect did not confiscate the land of Yanshenggong Mansion and distributed the land to farmers, nor did it confiscate the real estate under the name of Yanshenggong Mansion, but it didn't matter. Gao Shixin's younger brothers Cai Jiuyi and Wu Liuqi had already mixed up with the bandits and witnessed Yanshenggong bowing to Xu Hongru and surrendering to the bandits. In this way, certification was obtained. Later, Gao Shixin looked for another opportunity to find out the seal and documents of the fake Yanshenggong who was enthroned to Kong Yinzhi for the emperor, which was physical evidence.
People, evidence and physical evidence are there, what will happen if you wait for Yan Shenggong? You can figure out what it is like when you think about it with your toes.
The bandits who captured Qufu did not stay in Qufu for much. This place was too close to Yanzhou Prefecture City, and the various armies of the court were also rushing towards Qufu. Xu Hongru decisively ordered the withdrawal of his troops, left Qufu, and advanced towards Juye.
