Chapter 409 The Kong Family's Reaction
"In Nanjing City, those great scholars sent me letters. It is clear that the dictionary covers tens of thousands of characters in the world, is easy to read, and can benefit millions of Confucian students. It is a contemporary holy book!"
Kong Kejian said slowly with a calm face.
"What do they mean?"
Another elder in a gorgeous costume stood up, his face full of anger.
"Is this to force me to wait and admit the name of that little saint?"
The old man who could sit here was not only the ruler of the various branches of the Kong family. Even if he was released, he was also a famous scholar with surnames and a guest of the seats of the heads of various prefectures.
If he added his descendants of Confucius, a casual constructive speech would make any state chief think for a while.
However, there are now a group of great scholars from the Hanlin Academy who want to recognize the name of a little Taoist priest and saint who has not yet been crowned!
Moreover, he is also a saint of literature!
Even this little Taoist priest has cheated their Kong family?
Think about it, these old men of age are very angry.
But now their Kong family seems to have already angered the dragon throne, and that person is disgusted!
Could it be that person's instructing this time?
Thinking of this, the old men hurriedly looked at Kong Kejian above.
"Class leader, will there be someone behind this incident secretly instruct you?"
"That?"
Hearing this, Kong Kejian's expression was even more gloomy.
"Hmph, although we have received the news, the officials strictly prohibited from discussing this matter outside the palace. But we don't believe that if it were not for his support, these news would have spread throughout Nanjing City and reached our hands at such a fast speed?"
"Since that's the case? The patriarch, what should we do? We are descendants of Saint Confucius, and we must not let the saints be shamed..."
After hearing this, the old men looked tighter and they became much more cautious in their words.
However, the glory that has always been firm in their hearts still prevents them from surrendering easily.
"Since you want to safeguard the glory of your ancestors, I don't know what to do?"
Kong Kejian looked around speechlessly, especially the most fierce branch elders who had just jumped.
It is obvious that the person who was behind the scenes and was so diligent in this matter that he wanted to twist his thighs with his little arm?
Ants move mountains?
Last time, Shixing and I suffered such a big loss in Nanjing.
Fortunately, I saw that the opportunity was wrong and surrendered to that person as soon as possible. Only then could I get back intact only after I compensated for some losses.
Unexpectedly, you still want to jump this time?
"this?"
Seeing Kong Kejian's expression, the elders below couldn't help but look at each other, looked at each other, and found something was wrong in the other's eyes.
Today, something is wrong with the patriarch.
In the past, whenever the person in Nanjing was mentioned, the patriarch had the biggest voice and the most active one!
Why, are you so lazy today? You even feel a little reluctant?
"This matter is naturally decided by the patriarch!"
All the elders are all the elites.
Feeling something wrong with the atmosphere, I quickly smiled embarrassedly and bowed to humility.
After all, now their Kong family is in Shandong, especially Qufu, like a local emperor. As long as there is no disaster, they only need to enjoy themselves every day.
As for the glory of our ancestors, it is just a matter of face.
The clan leader has the greatest influence.
As long as it does not affect their interests, the clan leader can come forward.
The Kong family could naturally feel their thoughts.
Therefore, I can only curse in my heart: a group of old foxes!
However, this matter still needs to be followed by a process!
"My Kong family must be descendants of Confucius. If a saint appears, even the emperor needs to agree with me. Therefore, everyone in the world is looking at my Kong family, and my Kong family needs to make a sound!" Kong Kejian said.
"The patriarch is wise!"
The elders bowed together.
snort!
Seeing this, a ball of nameless fire ignited directly in Kong Kejian's heart.
However, in the end, rationality overwhelms impulsiveness.
He let out a heavy breath and said, "But, the world has been in chaos for a long time, and the people have just recovered their vitality. At this moment, a saint can appear is a great blessing for the people.
However, it is also a major event to establish a saint, and we must be very cautious. Although the dictionary was praised as a saint by all officials, it has not yet reviewed the people of the world. Therefore, as long as everyone in the world agrees with the matter of establishing a saint, my Kong family should not object to it!”
"The patriarch is wise!"
After hearing this, the elders of the Kong family understood instantly.
Immediately, he stood up and looked at Kong Kejian, who was sitting in the upper hand, with admiration on his face.
Sure enough, the patriarch is the wisest.
This solution will neither lose face nor provoke that person!
Then, Kong Kejian returned to the study.
He picked up the paper and pen and wrote two pages of large paper.
The content is full of lyricality, and people will feel the true feelings when viewed.
Seal it with fire paint, stamp it with a seal, and hand it over to the guards of the home, and sent it to Nanjing City overnight.
At the same time, a number of family Taoist temples with great influence were received from friends in the Kong family, Longhu Mountain, and Wudang Mountain in Quzhou.
And the reactions of each family are similar.
Only Wudang Mountain is rejected!
...
Two days later.
In the imperial study of the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the stack of letters in his hand, but his face was full of annoyance.
"Why is the old Mr. Kong from the Kong family so cunning now? He is also a descendant of the Saint Kong. Now that this happened, he even refuted it without refuting it.
What else do you say, let all the people in the world choose, and everything is to be the only one who is the leader of ours. The descendants of the Kong family are so weak, which really disappoints us!"
After saying that, he was still a little confused and kept cursing.
However, Zhu Biao, who was standing aside to serve, could see the brilliance of his father's eyes.
The corners of my mouth twitched slightly.
Then, Zhu Yuanzhang opened some letters with big red seals, looking one by one.
Every time I see one, I have to look depressed and curse for a long time.
"Why do so many people know about this? Don't we strictly prohibit those officials from talking about this outside the palace?"
"Also, why do these people all agree so positively that Zi'an is the little saint?"
"Is it so easy to be a saint? Is it so easy to become a saint?"
"besides……"
In Nanjing, the craze for the little saints about the little real person in Wudang began to gradually fade away.
However, as soon as Zhu Zi'an went out, he could feel strange and enthusiastic gazes.
Even half of them are a group of graceful and elegant women from noble families.
