Qufu, a county under the jurisdiction of Jining Prefecture, is the hometown of Confucius. It is the birthplace of the Yellow Emperor, the former capital of Shennong, the homeland of Shang and Yin, the capital of Zhou, Han and Lu, and an important birthplace of oriental culture.
During each of Kangxi's southern tours, he always went to Qufu (Dufu) to visit the Confucius Temple.
This time is no exception.
After Yuzhou arrived in Jining, a huge group of people, accompanied by Yan Shenggong Kong Yuqi, went straight to the Confucius Mansion.
In the twelfth year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Gao made Kong Teng, the eighth grandson of Confucius, the enshrined king. From then on, the eldest grandson of Confucius had a hereditary title.
In the following thousand years, the title of the descendants of Confucius changed many times, and in the second year of Zhihe in the Northern Song Dynasty, the title was changed to Yan Shenggong.
Except for the short-term title of Feng Shenggong, later generations have continued to use the title of Yan Shenggong.
The current Yanshenggong Kong Yuqi, whose courtesy name is Zhongzai, is the 66th generation descendant of Confucius.
Yuzhu rode a big horse, and Lao Shiba rode a small horse, accompanying Kangxi's imperial chariot.
"Since the time when the emperor was emperor, the world has been at peace, hundreds of millions of people live in peace, borders have expanded thousands of miles, and culture and education have flourished. This is a prosperous age that has never been seen in the past." Kong Yuqi, the Duke of Yansheng, who was riding on a horse, said a long list of praises to the saints in one breath.
Flattery.
Ouch, Yuzhu’s teeth are almost sore.
However, in his later years, Kangxi liked to hear such flattering words.
I saw Kangxi stroking his beard and saying with a smile: "I just rely on the blessings of my ancestors, but there are still many shortcomings."
Yuzhu was secretly amused, but when he heard it, it was a lie.
However, whoever dares to tell the truth at this time is the biggest fool in the world.
Kong Yuqi, the Duke of Yansheng, was born in the 14th year of Shunzhi, and Kangxi was born in the 11th year of Shunzhi. They were similar in age, but they had something in common.
Kong Yuqi was also clever and always talked about topics about longevity and health preservation, which greatly interested Kangxi.
As the two of them chatted, their conversation turned to women.
"I don't know, brother Zhong Zaixian, how many girls are there in Ye Yu?" Kangxi asked, and the people around him all turned their heads, not daring to listen any more.
Kong Yu was stunned for a moment, but fortunately he reacted very quickly and immediately said with a smile: "Back to the emperor, I am old and can only salivate at the beauty!"
Kangxi smiled proudly and said: "I can still control three women at night." After saying that, he subconsciously glanced at Lao Shiba.
Hehe, this son is the best evidence to prove Kangxi's ability.
Lao Shiba was still young and didn't know what Ye Yu meant, so he asked Yu Zhu in a low voice.
Yuzhu suppressed his laughter and whispered: "We will know the outcome when the Eighteenth Master gets married."
When he said this, Lao Shiba understood it instantly.
Lao Shiba curled his lips and said dissatisfied: "Cousin Dazhu, please don't lie to me. Before my wedding, Khan Amma will give me a palace maid."
Yuzhu said with a smile: "The palace maid is definitely not as interesting as your direct descendant Fujin." These words had an evil smell.
Just playing with the kids!
Now Yuzhu suddenly understood, and he finally fully understood the close relationship between Wang Zhenzhi and Ming Yingzong, Liu Jinzhi and Ming Wuzong, and Wei Eunuch and Zhu Youxiao.
The so-called big companion is a playmate who stays with you for a long time!
Apart from not being a eunuch, the big pillar children's shoes are actually very different from what Wei Zhongxian does.
If you think about it carefully, could the old eunuch who had played with him since childhood not understand the temper of the little emperor?
Whether it is Wang Zhen, Liu Jin, or Eunuch Wei, they are all older eunuchs.
Their common characteristic is that they are extremely understanding of human nature and fully understand the little emperor's emotions.
Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?
The little emperor had been served by them for a long time, so naturally he had deep affection and trust.
After the restoration of Nangong, Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty once said personally: Mr. Wang did not misunderstand my intentions.
After encountering the Tumubao Incident, he was captured by the Mongols, and imprisoned in Nangong by his younger brother for eight years. Not only did Ming Yingzong not hate Wang Zhen, but he missed him quite a bit.
This shows how much trust Ming Yingzong had in Wang Zhen?
Originally, in Yuzhu's life, there was no such thing as being an old man.
However, God sent Lao Shiba to his side, so Yuzhu could not miss this great opportunity.
History has changed, and Yuzhu will definitely try his best to prevent Lao Shiba from dying early.
After arriving at the boundary, Yuzhu and Lao Shiba followed Kangxi's large team and first went to pay homage to the Temple of Confucius.
Qufu Confucius Temple, also known as the "Queli Holy Temple".
Since the Western Han Dynasty, emperors of all dynasties have continued to add posthumous titles to Confucius, and the scale of the Confucius Temple has also become larger and larger, becoming the largest Confucius Temple in the country.
There are 464 halls, altar pavilions and gates in the temple. The Confucius Temple is surrounded by red walls and has turrets at the four corners. It is built in the style of the Forbidden City in Beijing. Together with the adjacent Confucius Mansion and the Confucius Forest in the north of the city, it is collectively known as "Confucius Temple"
Three holes".
Strictly speaking, Yuzhu can be regarded as a disciple of the most holy master.
It's just that Yuzhu studied Confucianism and eight-part essay just to pass the Jinshi examination.
To be honest, after winning the first prize, Yuzhu threw the eight-part essay into the back of his mind and never touched it again.
However, Yuzhu forgot that he was the first Manchurian champion in the history of the Qing Dynasty.
When Kangxi needed someone to impress him, how could he forget this great auspiciousness?
The emergence of the number one scholar in Manchuria is a good omen for the rise of culture and education.
Therefore, Yuzhu was called to Kangxi's side and accompanied the old emperor to drag the text.
Objectively speaking, Yuzhu's literary skills are extremely profound because of his hard work.
However, Yuzhu belongs to the pragmatic approach of being a essayist in a small town. He has only studied the art of eight-legged writing and has not studied the heretical ways of reciting poems and writing lyrics.
This is like a super-academic young man from a small town competing against students from a magical city for test scores, and he wins in a crushing manner.
However, ballroom dancing, how to eat Western food elegantly, making model airplanes, knowing more about investing than Li Jiacheng, and speaking English, these are the contents of quality education that a small town academic would definitely give up on!
The poems written by Yuzhu are dry and have no other merits except barely rhyming!
However, in terms of writing poetry and lyrics, Kangxi was only half-skilled, and Yanshenggong was even worse than Yuzhu.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In this way, the eldest brother is the half-hearted brother Mo Xiao!
To put it bluntly, people in high positions have no time to fight for power, so who would study poetry?
This is just like for some academicians or famous professors, being a principal or dean is their main job, and doing scientific research is just a side job.
How can these people, who spend their days giving speeches, soliciting funds, and building connections, devote themselves to scientific research?
Three poor parallel-imported writers get together and flatter each other, which is quite a pleasure!
After paying homage to Kong Sheng, Kangxi moved to Yan Shenggong's mansion.
Yuzhu used the excuse that Lao Ba could not stay any longer, so he took the children and fled, escaping from the unbearable sea of suffering.
The brothers present all watched eagerly as Yuzhu and Lao Shiba left.
Old Fifteen, looking at Old Eighteen's back, felt very unhappy in his heart.
He and Lao Shiba were both biological sons of the close concubine Wang. However, Kangxi disliked Lao Shiba very much.
The reason for this was well known to Lao Shiwu. The main reason was that he accidentally revealed his ambition to become a powerful man, and Kangxi heard it with his own ears.
From then on, Kangxi never looked at Lao Shiwu again.
On this southern tour, Lao Fifteen was able to come along, thanks to the help of his biological mother and concubine who put in good words.
Speaking of which, the relationship between Lao Shiwu and Prince Yinreng is actually very close.
Why?
Lao Fifteen's direct descendant, the Guarjia family of Fujin, was a third-class uncle of the Han Army's Zhengbai Banner and the concubine's second daughter of General Shi Wenbing of Fuzhou.
Coincidentally, the current crown princess is also named Guarjia, and she is Shi Wenbing's eldest daughter.
Hehe, the prince and Lao Shiwu have a close relationship as brothers and brothers-in-law.
When a normal person becomes a prince, he will definitely treat Lao Shiwu well and put him to good use.
The current prince Yinreng is exceptionally different.
It is said that Lao Fifteen took his direct descendant Fujin to visit the Crown Princess, and Yin Reng happened to be present.
As a result, Yinreng just pretended to be a prince and made Lao Shiwu and Xiao Guarjia kneel on the ground to reply. They knelt for half an hour.
Since then, Lao Shifeng has been avoiding the prince from a distance.
Even the little Guarjia clan no longer went to Yuqing Palace to visit her sister, even if she went to the palace to pay homage to the Empress Dowager.
Looking at this from Yuzhu's point of view, hehe, this is simply committing suicide!
Prince Yinreng started out with a really good set of cards, but in the end, he ended up being deposed twice and imprisoned to death. His character really determines his fate.
Seeing Yuzhu and Lao Shiba running away, Lao Shiliu was more courageous, and he ran away without even saying hello.
"Brother Sixteen, aren't you afraid that Ama Khan will scold you?" Lao Shiba is actually very smart. He guessed the truth as soon as he saw Lao Shiliu's sneaky look.
Old Sixteen touched his nose and said somewhat embarrassedly: "With you here, I won't be afraid of being scolded."
Yuzhu couldn't help but smile. He had very little contact with Lao Shiliu, and at most they were just acquaintances.
Among the many princes and elder brothers, those who have enmity with Yuzhu are: the second, eighth, ninth, tenth and fourteenth.
The prince's elder brothers who have a close relationship with Yuzhu are also those who are not destined to be high-ranking, for example, Lao Wu and Lao Qi, the two disabled elders.
There are also Lao Twelve, a guy with no power but ambition, and Xia Wang Lao Shisan.
As for the fourth child, hey, Yuzhu doesn't intend to get too close to him at all.
When I need you, my mouth is as sweet as honey. When I want to take revenge on you, I will be as vicious as I want.
The most typical examples are Longkoduo and Nian Gengyao.
Yuzhu had seen the relevant decree with his own eyes.
In the edict, the fourth child publicly called Uncle Longkodo and said to Nian Gengyao: I no longer know how to love you.
As a result, after Longkodo was imprisoned, he was asked to cover his mouth and nose with wet paper and died.
According to unofficial records, Nian Gengyao couldn't figure out whether to live or die, and he refused to die after struggling with it. Li Wei personally led people to strangle him to death, and then hung him up from the rafters.
It was also because of Old Sixteen's bad luck that Kangxi suddenly thought of him. When Wei Zhu asked, Master Sixteen followed Master Eighteen away.
Wei Zhu was not Liang Jiugong, so he did not dare to lure Yu Zhu.
However, Kangxi was so smart that he immediately called Yuzhu and scolded him.
Finally, Yuzhu and Lao Liu were punished and went to brush horses together.
This is simply an unreasonable disaster, and there is no explanation yet!
