"Let go, I can walk on my own!"
"How can the Great Qin Empire have the face to worship Mount Tai with such a tyrannical act!”
Soon, more than 20 people were escorted over by Eight Men.
When they saw the corpses on the ground, many people directly vomited.
"Ugh ~"
"Violent people, how dare you tarnish the Ran residence like this, you all ~~ vomit ~"
Only two people ran to Kong Zhe at once.
"Zhe 'er, how are you?!"
"Old Weng!"
An old woman who was old but still dignified pounced on Kong Zhe, crying bitterly.
A young man's hands trembled as he touched the wounds on Kong Zhe's body. He then looked at Ying Yuren angrily.
"I don't know how my father offended you.”
"But my father is already old, how could Young Master bear to do such a vicious thing?”
"If Young Master has any grudges, you can do anything to me.”
Ying Yuren looked at the young man.
"May I know how I should address you?"
The young man stood up and cupped his hands.
"Kong Fu, the eighth grandson of Confucius!"
Ying Yuren's pupils constricted.
" Kong?!"
This name wasn't eye-catching in history.
However, to Great Qin, it was extremely important.
Kong Fu was a civil official that Chen Sheng highly valued, and he was even honored as the Grand Preceptor by Chen Sheng.
It was because of Kong Fu's strategy that Chen Sheng was able to occupy half of Great Qin in just half a year.
If Chen Sheng had ignited the flames of anti-Qin Feng.
That Kong Po was the person who made this smoke burn even more fiercely and spread it all over the world!
Ying Yuren never expected that the Kong Clan would support four future rebels.
And this was only what Ying Yuren discovered.
How many of them did not discover it?
As expected, the Kong Clan would be able to absolve themselves from the blame even if they died!
However, to the current Ying Yuren, a living Kong Fu was more valuable than a dead Kong Fu.
Looking deeply at Kong Fu, Ying Yuren forcefully suppressed his killing intent and spoke calmly.
"You can't replace me in this matter."
The loud cries woke Kong Zhe up.
Kong Zhe muttered as he opened his eyes weakly.
"Mother?"
"You?"
"You guys…"
Kong Zhe was shocked and looked at Ying Yuren.
"Ying Yuren, why did you call my mother and my son over?”
"This matter is between you and me, it has nothing to do with my family!”
Ying Yuren half-squatted down and said calmly.
"To Great Qin, there is no need for us to continue existing if we only think about rebelling.”
"If Kong Da Ru continues to be stubborn, I will kill everyone here.”
"After that, this young master will trample over Qufu and kill your entire family!”
"I want to know, between filial piety and Confucianism, which one will you choose?”
Ying Yuren's voice was calm.
However, with the corpses all over the ground, the killing intent in his words was almost tangible!
The Kong Clan disciples who were vomiting were so frightened that they couldn't vomit anymore. They all looked at Kong Zhe in panic.
Kong Zhe himself felt as if he had been struck by lightning as he roared in grief.
"Young Master Yuren, you are still a disciple of the scholarly faction and have received their grace.”
"Now, you want to kill the descendant of Confucius?”
"Are you worthy of Confucius?"
"When you reach the netherworld, how will you have the face to face Sage Kong?”
Ying Yuren frowned slightly.”
"Eight Husband."
Seeing this, Kong Zhe could not help but reveal a trace of hope.
Could it be that his words had finally evoked the shallow kindness in Ying Yuren's heart?
Ba Fu immediately cupped his hands.
"Your humble servant is here!"
Ying Yuren instructed seriously.
"Remember to remind this Young Master to make a trip to the Confucius Tomb after arriving in Qufu.”
"Dig out Confucius 'coffin!"
Eight Husband was stunned.
"Young Master, are you going to scatter Confucius 'ashes?”
Ying Yuren was speechless.
"Why are you bringing up Confucius 'ashes?"
"This Young Master is going to nail Confucius 'coffin to death.”
"In case Confucius 'corpse comes back to life!"
Even the system had appeared. It was reasonable for the powerful Confucius to fake a corpse, right?
Ying Yuren wasn't embarrassed to see Confucius.
The main reason was that Ying Yuren felt that he couldn't beat Confucius and was afraid that Confucius would win him over with virtue!
Kong Zhe, Ba Fu, and the others all heaved a sigh of relief.
"This general will obey!"
After dealing with a future threat, Ying Yuren was relieved and turned to look at Kong Zhe.
"Kong Da Ru, have you considered it?”
Kong Zhe's mother screamed.
"Zhe 'er, we can all die, but the scholarly faction cannot perish!”
"Don't be soft-hearted! Protect the scholarly faction!"
Kong Zhe gritted his teeth, his gums were already bleeding, and his heart was in a state of internal conflict.
Filial piety was one of the fundamental principles of Confucianism.
If Kong Zhe gave up filial piety, then he would be betraying Confucianism and was not worthy of being a descendant of Confucius.
However, if he chose filial piety, Kong Zhe would betray Confucianism and would be too ashamed to meet Confucius after his death.
One question forced Kong Zhe into a dilemma.
But Kong Zhe had no choice!
Ying Yuren said faintly.
"Is it difficult to choose?"
"Confucius said: The father hides for his son, and the son hides for his father.”
"Mencius also said that if Shun's father was found guilty, Shun should support the judge's decision, give up his position as the Son of Heaven, and secretly break his father out of prison.”
"I believe Kong DaRu knows these words better than I do.”
Kong Zhe shook his head bitterly.
"You win."
"I will do as you say and cheer for Great Qin.”
"I only beg Young Master to spare my Kong Clan!”
Ying Yuren's lips curled up slightly.
"That's good!"
This tough bone that would rather break than bend was finally bent by him!
Bafu, Guafu, and the other bodyguards subconsciously looked at each other, their faces filled with emotion.
So this was the scholarly faction's method of persuasion.
He had learned it!
