Chapter 180 Taishan Thief

Old Man Hong has been in Qufu for several generations and is also a local aristocratic family. He has passed the imperial examination and served as an official. The Kong family dared not do anything to him casually. Over the years, Old Man Hong has known too many secrets of the Kong family.

Facing Ye Hua, the old man poured his heart out and said everything he knew.

Since he was a child, he even heard from the above generations that the Kong family bullied others and rampantly in the countryside, doing all kinds of evil. At that time, Kong Mo was originally a slave of the Kong family. However, he was bullied, so he colluded with bandits and destroyed the entire Kong family.

There were quite a few who followed Kong Mo into the Kong Mansion, many of them were local villagers. They could not stand the exploitation of the Kong family by sucking bones and marrow, and took advantage of the demise of the Tang Dynasty and the Liang and Jin strife to destroy the Kong family.

Kong Mo also returned the land that the Kong family occupied by the people to the original owner, and took out the Kong family's money and grain to help the poor villagers, and was supported by many people.

Therefore, Kong Mo was elected as the heir of the Confucius Mansion, and he was watching to prevent the court from settled the accounts after the autumn.

Old Man Hong told Ye Hua that he didn't know at all whether Kong Renyu was Kong Guangsi's son.

However, after Kong Mo took over the Kong Mansion for more than ten years, he changed his face. His actions were almost the same as the original Kong family, which made people angry and resentful. At this time, the Zhang family suddenly stood up and said that they had protected the orphans of the Kong Mansion, and had access to the imperial court to execute Kong Mo.

Kong Renyu successfully took over the Kong Mansion. At that time, there was no one in the Kong family. Kong Renyu was young and basically the power of the Kong Mansion was in the hands of the Zhang family.

They learned their lessons, and at first they were honest and obedient, and the people also accepted it.

But gradually, his hideous face was revealed.

If others don’t say it, the Zhang family alone put in a lot of effort to help Kong Renyu. How could they not have any plans?

Since more than ten years ago, Kong Renyu has been playing a black and white face with the Zhang family.

Kong Renyu worked diligently, was content with poverty and was willing to be the descendant of his saints. And the Zhang family secretly annexed land, occupied various industries, operated shops, and raised thugs.

In short, do everything evil!

When someone wants to deal with the Zhang family, Kong Renyu will use the status of the Kong family to help them escape danger and then take revenge.

There have been thousands of people killed by the Zhang family over the years, and even the yamen are hard to escape. People say in private that they would rather offend the King of Hell than offend the Zhang family!

Arrogant and domineering, to such a point!

It's lawless!

Ye Hua listened silently, and he suddenly interrupted Old Man Hong and asked, "According to what Old Man Hong said, this Kong Renyu may not be the true descendant of Confucius?"

Old Man Hong smiled, "Marty, Confucius has been around for more than a thousand years! From the Spring and Autumn Period to the time when Emperor Wu of Han respected Confucianism, it has been passed down for more than ten generations. During this period, there were Chu and Han fighting. Later, there were Southern and Northern Dynasties. According to my thoughts, Confucius probably had cut off his inheritance long ago! Kong Renyu was probably fake, but the previous ones might not be real!"

Ye Hua took a deep breath, thinking.

No matter when, there are always things that make you happy to be a father. The Kong family has been passed down for dozens of generations, and it is easier to encounter the situation of replacing the pillars. And how many were killed during the Southern and Northern Dynasties? Can Confucius' direct descendants really survive?

I'm afraid it may not be!

The Kong family can continue to be endless, but in fact, someone wants them to do this and set up the Kong family as a sign. Even if the Kong family dies, as long as they want, they can find one of them, give him the surname Kong, wash and dress up, and apply rouge and powder, and become Yan Shenggong, which is no difficulty.

Therefore, to solve the problem of the Kong family, it cannot be solved by eliminating a few people. Of course, no one who commits the murderous crime cannot be let go.

The key is the court!

Ye Hua has pointed out the key point to Guo Wei.

A capable emperor can control Confucianism, and conversely, an unscrupulous emperor will also be controlled by Confucianism. No one can always be a puppet, and he may become a puppet at any time.

Therefore, for the sake of long-term plans, we should never rashly worship Confucius.

There is no need to regard Confucian myths, treat any random words as golden rules, or even formulate national policies based on certain words, which is even more ridiculous.

Ye Hua’s opinion to Guo Wei was to be the master of Confucianism and not be eaten by Confucianism in turn.

If you want to tame Confucianism and use it for the country, you must first cut off the inheritance of the Kong family. Without the lineage of saints, the court can let go and re-explain Confucian classics.

It is unrealistic to absorb all the good ideas of ancient sages and wise men. Although it is unrealistic to revive the Legalists, Taoists, and Mohists, and form a situation where a hundred schools of thought contend, it is possible to introduce the concepts of various schools and revise Confucianism.

Ye Hua also had the idea of ​​compiling textbooks.

It seems the timing is right!

Thinking of this, Ye Hua smiled. Old Man Hong suddenly felt chilling when he faced his face. How could the boy, who was obviously very sunny, make people feel so cold? He shivered!

"Old Hong, since you said that Kong Renyu might be fake, then just destroy the inheritance of the Kong family and eliminate the roots!"

"ah!"

Old Man Hong exclaimed, "Campoke Hou, can this be done? Where is the court and the Shilin?" Even after fighting with the Kong family for so many years, Old Man Hong could not believe that he could eradicate the Kong family!

"I think Your Majesty will make a decision in the court affairs. As for the Shilin, there may be a rebound, but it can only be called at most. So what can I do?" Ye Hua sneered: "I just cut off the inheritance of the Kong family, and I am not kicking the Saint Kong out of the pile of sages. Can't this be done?"

Old Man Hong grinned.

He has not been in the court for a long time, and he does not know His Majesty’s thoughts or Ye Hua’s strength.

But since he said it, Old Man Hong would rather believe that he could do it.

It’s time for the Kong family to pay the price!

"Mr. Marquis, I don't know anything else, but I heard that the Zhang family has a lot of people!"

Ye Hua smiled, "Old Hong thought they dared to be tough? Just a thug can be compared with the officers and soldiers of the court?"

Old Man Hong changed his color. He looked around and then said mysteriously: "Champion, don't underestimate the Zhang family. Kong Mo wanted to get rid of them, but the people sent by Kong Mo were all killed by the thieves! They are so awesome!"

"Thief, where did the thief come from?"

"It's the bandits of Mount Tai!" Old Man Hong said in horror: "Shan Tai has been many bandits since ancient times. Since Huang Chao committed rebellion, more and more bandits on Mount Tai have gathered in the mountains and forests, burned, killed, and looted, and did everything evil. I heard that the Zhang family has a close relationship with the bandits of Mount Tai, and the Marquis must be on guard against the rush to jump over the wall!"

"Taishan bandit?"

Ye Hua smiled, "Old Hong, have you heard of the Cavalry Guard?"

Cavalry guard!

Champion Hou’s army, the ace of Dazhou!

Coming from the war, showing its first glory!

The Iron Cavalry is invincible! If you live impatiently, come on!

Ye Hua was full of confidence and fearless. According to the information provided by Old Man Hong, he began a thorough investigation. After all, the paper could not contain the fire. Kong Renyu could pretend to be a garlic and act, and the Zhang family was powerful. He watched it briefly, but no one dared to offend them.

However, when Ye Hua made great efforts and began to investigate thoroughly, many people took the initiative to send complaints, including suing the Kong family and Zhang family, bullying people and occupying land, accounting for more than 80% of them, and the remaining ones were also robbing women, setting up private courts, hurting lives, hoarding goods, bullying and dominating the market, etc., which were all in one go.

There is no need to confirm everything. As long as one tenth of it is, you can cut off Kong Renyu's head and destroy the entire Zhang family!

Both families are smart-eared and wise. Seeing that the disaster is coming, can you not find a way?

But what else can I do?

Kong Renyu could see that Ye Hua was determined to investigate to the end, while Wang Pu was just an old fox. On the surface, he comforted the Kong family, but in fact he was unwilling to do anything.

There is no news in the court so far, and I don’t know if the Zhengshi Hall can order it… I was thinking that someone came to deliver a letter, but the Zhengshi Hall did order it, but the Zhengshi Hall was ordered to continue investigating the case!

Kong Renyu was stunned. Why can't even the imperial court be counted on?

Isn't this a fatal death?

Is it possible to achieve success and have no chance to resist?

Ye Hua is a kid who is smart and ruthless, trusted by the emperor, and has military power. If you want to say what weaknesses he has? He is greedy for money? It seems that when it comes to making money, few are more powerful than Ye Hua!

He likes beauty, but he is not yet a child! I haven't heard of anyone he likes!

What are the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, playing, playing, playing, playing, playing, playing, singing... I searched for a while, but I couldn't find a good way to deal with Ye Hua.

This kid is simply a freak.

He has great power, good brains, and he still has no oil and salt.

The Kong family has never encountered such a difficult enemy.

Just when everyone had no idea, Kong Renyu's uncle Zhang Yan suddenly spoke quietly, "Since you can't buy it, then kill it, it's not that I haven't done it!"

Kong Renyu was crying, my uncle, you think Ye Hua is a county magistrate, and you can kill him if you want to!

He is the prince's life-saving benefactor, the celebrity in front of the emperor, and the champion of the three armies! If you kill him, not to mention whether you can succeed, the consequences alone will be enough to make countless people's heads fall!

How come someone as smart as my uncle can come up with a stupid solution?

Seeing that Kong Renyu was filled with complaints, Zhang Yan smiled, "I may not necessarily kill people, as long as Ye Hua can be transferred away, that's it!"
