And, in order to prevent any accidents from happening!
Zhu Hongyu also ordered Zhou Tianxu, the commander of the Royal Guards, to personally lead a team to Shandong!
Zhou Tianxu looked in the direction of the gate of Kong's Mansion and quietly watched the killings taking place in Kong's Mansion, without much change on his face.
He held a pocket watch in his hand to mark the time for this operation.
Almost half an hour later, a Jin Yiwei Baihu dressed in black and blood-stained strode out of the gate of Confucius Mansion, strode up to Zhou Tianxu, cupped his fists and saluted.
"I'm reporting to the commander, everyone in the Kong family who dared to resist was killed, and the rest were taken to the front yard to await their fate!"
When Zhou Tianxu heard this, his eyes widened and he said.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Where is the commander? Call me leader!"
Hearing this, the 100-year-old man slapped himself lightly and spoke.
"My lord, I know I was wrong!"
Zhou Tianxu then nodded with satisfaction.
"well done!"
After saying that, he lifted his legs and walked towards Kong's mansion.
The guards behind him quickly followed.
At this time, everything in Kong's mansion was bloody and blood was flowing.
Corpses were piled on top of each other haphazardly, and blood gathered into a stream.
The smell of blood is tangy!
Broken limbs and colorful internal organs were scattered everywhere.
Important figures of the Kong family were sorted out from the pile of corpses one by one, their heads were chopped off and then pickled on site.
Because the heads of these important figures were to be brought back to Nanjing for restoration.
Over in Nanjing, Zhu Hongyu is still preparing to vent his anger on Comrade Lao Zhu!
Looking at the scene of corpses strewn all around, Zhou Tianxu took out a silk scarf from his arms, covered his mouth and nose, and said.
"How's it going with Kong Lin?"
Konglin is the ancestral tomb of the Kong family.
Starting from Confucius, almost all the leaders of the Confucius family and the powerful clan elders are buried there.
The Jin Yiwei Baihu beside him said.
"Report to the leader, over there and order someone to do it!"
"Kong Yanzhi's grave has been found, and preparations have been made to dig the grave and open the coffin, and crush his body into ashes."
That's right, the Kong Yanzhi here is the guy who wrote a letter to the young emperor Shunzhi about the prosperous age of Bahuang Xiange.
That is, the guy who knelt down to Li Zicheng, knelt down to the Manchus, and shaved off Dorgon's hair.
Before Zhou Tianxu left, Zhu Hongyu gave him an order to dig out Kong Yanzhi, crush his bones and scatter his ashes.
Zhou Tianxu nodded slightly with satisfaction, and then continued.
“Well done!”
While they were talking, they walked to the courtyard of Confucius' mansion.
At this time, in the courtyard of the Confucius Mansion, the members of the Kong family were being led to kneel together, with the men on one side and the women and children on the other.
Zhou Tianxu strode up to the Kong family members, glanced at them briefly, and then asked.
"Is everyone here? Is there anything wrong?"
His deputy stood up and said.
"Reporting to the leader, we have already conducted an inventory. There are too many collateral members of the Kong family, so we cannot count them. However, there are quite a few direct male members of the Kong family."
In ancient times, when nine tribes were killed or three tribes were killed, the most important target was actually the male members of the family.
If Jin Yiwei wants to take action against the Kong family, the men of the Confucius family are naturally the top priority!
Especially the male direct lineage, none of them can be let go.
Zhou Tianxu nodded slightly when he heard this.
"Go ahead and kill everyone in the Kong family, leaving no one behind!"
After saying that, he turned around and left, as if he couldn't bear to see the next scene.
Just as he was about to leave, the crowd thought that the elder of the Kong family had broken free from the oppression, rushed out of the crowd, and roared.
"Who are you, how dare you take action against my Kong family?"
"I, the descendant of the Kong family and even the Holy Master, am the Duke Yansheng canonized by the imperial court. If you attack my Kong family, aren't you afraid of being punished by the nine clans?!"
When Zhou Tianxu heard this, he stopped for a moment before leaving, turned around and said.
"Haha, Duke Yansheng canonized by the imperial court?"
"Which court? Ming or Qing?!"
The irony in his words was very obvious, and it was almost the same as saying plainly that all of you, the Kong family, are slaves with three surnames.
When the Kong family elder heard this, his expression froze, but then he came to his senses.
Staring at Zhou Tianxu with extremely disbelieving eyes, he opened his mouth and said like a madman.
"You...you are from the Ming Dynasty!"
"You are sent from Nanjing!"
The Kong family elder judged the identities of Zhou Tianxu and others just from Zhou Tianxu's words.
Of course, the uniform embroidered spring knives worn by Zhou Tianxu and others are also one of the important testimonies.
Zhou Tianxu saw that his and others' identities were exposed, but he didn't panic. He just grinned and turned around and said.
"Oh, is it so?"
"Then what?"
The elder of the Kong family was immediately stunned by the question.
Yes, what then?
How could these people attack the Kong family so openly and openly, how could it be possible that they did not get the instructions from the Ming Emperor!
In this world, apart from the emperor, does anyone dare to take action against the Kong family?
In just an instant, the Kong family elder's heart was filled with fear that was so intense that it couldn't be resolved!
The group of men in black in front of me are not bandits at all, they are people from the Ming Dynasty!
They were originally here under the emperor's orders, who could do anything to them?!
Zhou Tianxu sneered and took off his robe.
The black outer robe fell to the floor, revealing the black flying fish suit underneath.
The flying fish pattern on his chest shows his identity.
The thousands and hundreds of households beside Zhou Tianxu also took off their outer robes, revealing their flying fish suits.
Although the small flags, general flags, and Tiqi at the lower level do not have flying fish uniforms, they have also taken off their outer robes, revealing the imperial uniforms they are wearing.
The flying fish uniforms and the embroidered spring knives in their hands all indicate their identities.
Zhou Tianxu sneered, waved his hand and ordered.
"Do it!"
After that, he left without looking back.
The minds of the elders of the Kong family were filled with fear, and their voices were filled with resentment as they uttered their last words before their death.
"Damn it, how dare you do this to my Kong family!"
"I, the Kong family, are descendants of saints. Aren't we afraid of criticism from scholars and condemnation from the world when we did this in the Ming Dynasty?"
"Aren't you afraid that the children in Nanjing will lose their stability by treating my Kong family like this?"
"Foolish king! Tyrant! The dog emperor is so cruel and cruel, Xia Jie and Shang Zhou are nothing more than that!"
"How is the child Zhu Hongyu's behavior different from that of Qin Shihuang and Sui Yang Emperor?!"
"That dog emperor treated my Kong family like this today, he will definitely receive retribution in the future."
Of course, some people want to vent before they die and curse unbridledly, while others don't want to die and want to struggle on their deathbed.
"No! Don't kill me!"
"I am willing to give all my property and land, don't kill me."
"I, the Kong family, know that we were wrong and will never dare to betray the Ming Dynasty again. Don't kill us!"
