Zhu Youxiao directly ordered several eunuchs around him: "Take him down and shut up."

"Your Majesty!" Kong Yinzhi wanted to say something, but at this chaotic moment, he had already left the teachings of his ancestors and the teachings of his fathers behind him, and his mind was blank.

Soon, Kong Yinzhi was taken out.

Zhu Youxiao sighed, gently picked up the tea and took a sip, looked at Chen Hong who brought the tea and said, "You said, why is this person not satisfied? He gave them so much, and he still had to fight and rob them. Don't they understand? Only what I gave can they take; if I don't give it, they will take it, and I will not only chop off their hands, but also chop off their heads!"

After hearing this, Chen Hong hurriedly said, "Since ancient times, people were not satisfied with their hearts, and the emperor did not need to be as knowledgeable as them. God will accept such greedy people. Besides, Yan Shenggong is a descendant of Confucius. I think he will definitely be very ashamed and angry after today."

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Chen Hong and said, "Shame and angry? How much shame and anger?"

"I think I'll commit suicide because of the crime." Chen Hong thought for a while and said in a gentle tone: "After all, after doing something so sorry to the emperor and doing something so sorry to the Ming Dynasty, if you have a little conscience, you should be ashamed to face the emperor without shame."

Zhu Youxiao sighed, shook his head helplessly, and finally said with a wry smile: "I hope he has such a conscience."

As he said that, Zhu Youxiao put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Okay, don't mention him anymore. Go and meet Xu Guangqi and others."

At this time, Xu Guangqi and others were already waiting outside.

When Zhu Youxiao came over, the expressions on Xu Guangqi and others were a little nervous.

In fact, they had heard of some things just now. It could be felt from the atmosphere in the palace that the situation here was not very good. They also knew about what Yan Shenggong came.

His Majesty summoned Yan Shenggong just now, and the atmosphere is so bad now, which shows that the summoning just now was not very smooth.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Xu Guangqi and others and said slowly: "Don't give me a gift. All my dear friends sit down."

After Xu Guangqi and others sat down, Zhu Youxiao sighed and called Chen Hong to tea.

After Chen Hong brought the tea, Zhu Youxiao said: "Today I have something to discuss with you."

When Xu Guangqi and others heard this, they hurriedly sat upright and waited for his Majesty to talk about the matter.

After glanced at Xu Guangqi and others, Zhu Youxiao said directly: "We have some days in Jining. What is going on in Jining and what is going on in Shandong? I think you all know what is going on in your heart."

"The disaster relief food sent by the court has not left much in Shandong. I believe you all know what happened here in Shandong. The Lu Palace and Qufu are on the surface, benevolence, righteousness and morality, but in fact they occupy land, force good people to become prostitutes, embezzle and sell disaster relief food, and collude with the White Lotus Sect to rebel, cause disaster to the side."

When Xu Guangqi and others heard what Zhu Youxiao said, his heart trembled.

They also knew that His Majesty was really angry this time.

What did Yan Shenggong say? He actually made His Majesty angry like this?

You must know that it is Yansheng Gong’s Mansion. Everyone knows that they cannot collude with the White Lotus Sect to rebel. Of course, other things must exist.

The Kong family's reputation has never been very good, and it was once cleaned up in Wanli. The head of the Kong family of that generation always came to Beijing in the name of worshiping the emperor, using the imperial post stations and using the imperial court. Every time he bought a lot of goods, fed and lived for free at the imperial post stations, and then went to the capital to sell goods, so as to make a fortune.

At that time, Zhang Juzheng could not bear it anymore and severely punished the Kong family and imposed strict restrictions on his visit to Beijing to worship. From that time on, the Kong family's reputation was not very good.

They all knew the situation in Shandong. They were all ministers from Shandong, but they didn’t have the courage of Zhang Juzheng. Even Zhang Juzheng only restricted and punished the Kong family and did not dare to do anything.

But now, what Your Majesty said doesn’t seem to be restricting and punishing it. This is the rhythm of a big fight!

So Xu Guangqi and others were a little surprised, and at the same time they were quickly thinking about what to do.

The calmest one is the British Duke Zhang Weixian.

Zhang Weixian felt that this matter had nothing to do with him. What does the affairs of the Kong family have to do with his Zhang family?

He did not care if he died. He was the Duke of England and could not get too close to them. Of course, he could not express his attitude to oppose such offending things.

As for Xu Guangqi, he himself disdained the Kong family, who is now a Catholic believer. Recently, Xu Guangqi thought what Zhu Youxiao said made sense, but he was not interested in the Kong family anyway.

Huang Kezhang now believes in Xunzi, and he plays both etiquette and law. He will not offend His Majesty for this matter. As for offending the Kong family for His Majesty, it seems that he can't do it.

I have been practicing ethics and laws recently and have offended many people. If I do this, I am afraid that more people will offend me. What should I do at that time? Wouldn't I be unable to survive?

So Huang Kezhang made up his mind, not expressing his opinion, and said nothing. Just talking about the New Year, your Majesty, you are right.

Recently, Huang Kezhang studied it, especially the Grand Secretary of the cabinet of all dynasties in the Ming Dynasty. He discovered something interesting, that is, the senior who was called the Three Pavilions of Paper and the Six Pastorals of Clay Sculptures. It seems that it is not as simple as the legendary, and it is worth learning from it. Judging from the current situation, if he learns from them, he may be able to go a long way, otherwise the road will be narrower and things will become difficult to handle.

Zhu Youxiao didn't care what the three people were thinking about, but continued: "Justice Yanshenggong just came and talked about the situation in Shandong. Yanshenggong said that he was willing to give all his property to me and let me help the people in Shandong. What do you think of the dear friends?"

All three people present were human spirits. When they heard this, they instantly understood why His Majesty was so angry.

Is this a bit exaggerated to give all the property to Your Majesty?

Where did you, Yan Shenggong, place Your Majesty? Will Your Majesty ask for your property? What did you regard Your Majesty as?

What's more, this time, it's obvious that your family did something wrong, but they dare to threaten His Majesty like this. Can His Majesty let you threaten?

If it is the easy-to-talk Your Majesty, it might be fine. But Your Majesty is young and energetic. Since he ascended the throne, no one has dared to be so threatening.

Where are the people kneeling in front of the Meridian Gate now?

A mere Qufu Kong family dared to do this trick. Is your Majesty's knife no longer sharp?

Isn’t your Kong family today the status of today because of a good ancestor?

When you are fine, naturally everyone will carry you and worship you as a tablet. But you must have the awareness of making tablets, and now you dare to do such things?

This tablet seems to be unconscious.

When Xu Guangqi and the other two looked at each other, they all hesitated.

But all three of them knew that if you didn’t say anything about this, you would not be able to overcome it with Your Majesty.

So Zhang Weixian spoke first, he stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I think this matter is inappropriate."

"Is that so? Let's hear it?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhang Weixian and said.

"Report to Your Majesty, although all this world is the king's land; the shores of the land are the king's ministers. However, the property of this minister is the property of the minister. If he is offered casually, it is likely that he will force his family wealth. At that time, local ministers will do whatever they want, which will damage His Majesty's reputation."

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Zhang Weixian, nodded and said, "The British Duke makes sense, sit down."

When the British Duke sat down, Xu Guangqi also stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I think this matter is inappropriate. The Confucius family in Qufu is a descendant of Confucius, which is of great importance. Acquiring his family's wealth may cause criticism and the gain is not worth the loss."

"Ge Lao Xu is right, sit down." Zhu Youxiao said to Xu Guangqi with a smile.

When Xu Guangqi sat down, Zhu Youxiao looked at Huang Kezhang.

Huang Kezhang naturally had to stand up, so he also stood up and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I think this is inappropriate. The reasons have been mentioned by both adults before, so I will not repeat them."

"What I want to say is the mistake made by the Kong family." Huang Kezhang said with a serious expression: "I think it should be investigated strictly. No matter who involves the Kong family, it must be severely punished, otherwise it will not be enough to calm the public's anger or calm the people's hearts. Even the Yansheng Gong Mansion should not be delayed and ignored."

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Huang Kexiang, nodded gently, and said with a smile: "Sit down."

The three of them seemed to have said something, but in fact they were not saying it. The three of them were not giving advice to Zhu Youxiao, but just showing their own position.

Zhu Youxiao understood their position, and to put it bluntly, he did not interfere or object.

Even Huang Kezhang said that if His Majesty wants to deal with the Kong family, he is willing to put in some effort.

But under such circumstances, Zhu Youxiao could not have let Huang Kezhang work hard, otherwise what would he do to raise so many people?

"I am a little tired today, so my dear friends should go back too." Zhu Youxiao looked at Xu Guangqi and the other two, waved his hand and said.

"That me and I will leave." Xu Guangqi and others quickly stood up and bowed.

When they left the door, Xu Guangqi and the other two were all relieved.

Xu Guangqi glanced at Zhang Weixian and the others and said calmly: "Sir, don't spread the news today, right?"

Zhang Weixian and Huang Kezhang looked at each other.

Although Xu Guangqi was not very polite, both of them understood what it meant, so they nodded at the same time.

Since the two of them were asked to express their opinions, Xu Guangqi did not hide anything anymore. He smiled and said, "This time the matter is very big, and Your Majesty may not be able to hold back this tone. Both of them are old ministers in the court. I guess I don't need to say what to do, right?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Xu, we naturally know how to do it." Zhang Weixian smiled harmlessly, but a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and said, "This Ming Dynasty surname Zhu. If someone wants to change his surname, he should also ask the knife in our hands. When our ancestors could conquer the world with Emperor Taizu, we could naturally protect His Majesty and the Ming Dynasty's world!"
