Chapter 1617 The Kong Family Is Over

There was no sound in the court, and all the ministers of civil and military affairs stared at Kong Yinzhi with extreme panic in their hearts. Isn't this too scary? Just as Kong Yinzhi made an oath, it was fulfilled immediately. The five thunders struck him and chopped him into charcoal on the spot. Could it be that even the heavens can't stand him?

What did I swear before? Is there something I missed, no, I must think about it when I go back, and fulfill all the vows I made, otherwise what will happen in the future? I don't want to end up with Kong Yinzhi.

No, there is an upturned dragon's head on the roof of this hall. The dragon's mouth sticks out a twisted metal tongue, which stretches toward the sky. The root of the tongue is connected to a thin iron wire, which goes straight to the ground. If lightning hits the house, current will flow from the dragon's tongue. Walk along the eyes to the ground to avoid thunder and lightning from destroying the hall; in this case, even if lightning falls, it will not be able to strike the people in the hall, right? What the hell is going on here? Those who understand science, such as Xu Guangqi and Sun Yuanhua, couldn't help looking at the roof.

I'm sorry, I didn't hold back for a while, if you made a special oath, it might be over, but you are so dead that you said five thunders, Shen Long couldn't hold back when he thought that Kong Yinzhi first voted for Li Zicheng and then for Jiannu He cashed in on the spot, and summoned five bolts of lightning to chop Kong Yinzhi apart. "Your Majesty, the thief Kong deceived the king, and even the heavens couldn't see it. He sent down thunder to punish him. I beg your majesty to investigate all the illegal things of the Confucius family, so that the heavens will not punish them again!" Zhang Mo was the first to wake up , suppressing the ecstasy in his heart and said, if this incident gets out today, it will be enough to make his name go down in history.

See, just after I impeached Kong Yinzhi, the heavens sent down thunder to punish him. This shows that even the heavens agreed with my impeachment, which will definitely usher in great prestige for me.

"Your Majesty, I have committed a crime. I did not see through the true face of Kong Yinzhi, and was blinded by him! Please allow me to atone for my crimes. I am willing to go to Qufu to personally investigate the various crimes committed by the Kong family. "The ministers who previously supported Kong Yinzhi immediately made a 180-degree turn and directly criticized Kong Yinzhi. It won't work if you don't change your mind! Kong Yinzhi was struck by lightning on the spot, how can you ask me to speak for him? If I don't change my words, I will be implicated myself! Many ministers looked at Kong Yinzhi with hatred, how dare you swear that you have done so many bad things? Isn't this courting death? It doesn't matter if you seek death yourself, don't implicate me!

"Your Majesty, please leave the court as soon as possible. Kong Yinzhi has angered the heavens. It may be inappropriate to stay in the hall!" Some people also thought of safety issues. Now there is a big hole on the top of the hall. What should I do if something falls and hits someone?

"It's nothing, I am the Lord of Destiny, the thunder from the sky is because of Kong Yinzhi, it has nothing to do with me and you." Shen Long said calmly, don't worry, as long as no one continues to swear foolishly, there will be no thunder Yes, he ordered, "A few people come to see if Kong Yinzhi is dead?"

The civil servants watched Kong Yinzhi hesitate to step forward, fearing that there would be another thunderstorm, but Lu Wenzhao was more courageous, went to the front and turned Kong Yinzhi who was lying on the ground, only to see that Kong Yinzhi was struck by lightning The whole body was black, but he still had a few breaths, so he did not die on the spot, so he reported the truth.

"Oh? What's going on here? Since God sent down punishment, why didn't Kong Yinzhi be hacked to death? Instead, he was spared?" Shen Long asked intentionally. "Your Majesty, this may be reserved for His Majesty's holy judgment! After all, Kong Yinzhi is His Majesty's subject, and His Majesty is acting on behalf of Heaven to shepherd and guard the people. Naturally, His Majesty should personally deal with a subject who made a mistake. God can only warn, not replace His Majesty. Execute." Immediately someone thought of Yan Song's allusion back then.

During the Jiajing period, the Taoist priest Lan Daoxing used a shaman to invite immortals to expose Yan Song as a traitor in the name of God. Emperor Jiajing asked him, "Since God knows that he is a traitor, why didn't he punish him?"

Lan Daoxing thought for a while and answered, "I think I will leave it to His Majesty to deal with it." The words of these ministers now have the same meaning as what Lan Daoxing did back then.

Kong Yinzhi, who was struck by lightning, was in pain all over his body.

But he didn't dare to show the slightest expression. He could only force his eyes to pretend to be dizzy. Besides, he didn't know what to do. It's all right, the Kong family seems to be completely over.

"So that's it!" Shen Long nodded, as if he agreed with this statement, "It seems that Zhang Aiqing's impeachment is true, so why don't you send someone to Shandong to investigate? Is that Aiqing willing to take on this important task?"

"Your Majesty, I am willing to go!" Zhang Mo stood up without hesitation, and he wanted to take credit for this achievement.

"Your Majesty, the minister is also willing to go!" If in the past, that civil servant was willing to go to Cha Kong's house? The Kong family is the face of scholars all over the world. If you check him yourself, scholars all over the world don't know how to scold you? But it's different now, Kong Yinzhi was struck by lightning in the main hall just now, and it was destiny to go to Chakong's house in Shandong by himself, and no one could tell if he came.

What's more, I just spoke for Kong Yinzhi. If I don't want to make it up, I won't be able to mess around in the court in the future.

"That being the case, let Zhang Aiqing and Lu Aiqing go together!" Shen Long nodded to Zhang Mo, and an official who spoke hardest to Kong Yinzhi just now, appointed them as imperial envoys, and went to Shandong to investigate and deal with the Kong family. From Jinyiwei and Dongchang, capable personnel were mobilized to help them in the future.

Kong Yinzhi was taken to the prison for strict supervision. After the news spread, the whole world was in an uproar. After Zhang Mo and others arrived in Shandong, countless people came to their door to complain and complained about the many crimes of the Kong family.

They must have dared not before, because the Kong family has occupied Qufu for nearly two thousand years. No matter which family is the emperor, the wealth of the Kong family is indispensable. They are already desperate to bring down the Kong family.

But it's different now, Kong Yinzhi swore that the incident of being struck by lightning had spread to Shandong, and they felt that even the heavens couldn't understand the Kong family anymore, so they produced all kinds of evidence to sue the Kong family. Zhang Mo and that Master Lu did not dare to be negligent, and they were interrogated severely for each crime. The local officials no longer dared to look after the Kong family. With their cooperation, the true face of the Kong family was gradually revealed to the world.

Annexation of land, harsh treatment of tenants, oppression of the common people, monopoly of lawsuits, hoarding, and some messy things in the family were all made public, and the reputation of the Kong family was completely ruined. The existence that scholars all admired turned into contempt. The object of the Kong family is over.
