Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

Inside Qufu City.

Although this is a county town, it exists only for Confucius.

There are wealthy people in this city who are either named Kong or are stewards of the Kong family.

There is even a saying in Qufu that there are “Twelve Confucius Palaces”.

The direct descendants of the Kong family are talking about, and there are twelve royal-level mansions in the city.

When the city gate was blown open, there was indeed a panic in the city.

If the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty had ignored the high-walled mansions and rushed towards the Confucius residence at this time, they would have captured the Confucius family compound long ago.

however……

"We Shengqing" is a group of bandits from top to bottom.

The strength of the Qing army was only based on the premise that half of the proceeds from looting belonged to themselves.

Qufu City is the hometown of saints.

The Kong family occupies half of Shandong!

As for commerce, it covers everything from salt to silk, cotton, and ironware.

The salt of the Kong family covers most of Jiangbei.

The Kong family's iron almost monopolized the land of Qilu.

Even the Kong family was involved in burning glass...

……

It can be said that as long as it is a profitable business, the Kong family will have a hand in it!

When mountains of gold and silver gather in a county town, you can imagine the prosperity in the city!

The Qing army, which made a living by looting, surrendered and blew open the city gate. What they saw was such a scene.

There are carved beams and painted buildings along the way.

Everything he does is a deep house and compound!

One by one, they stood behind every door lintel they knocked open!

There is gold everywhere, silver everywhere, silk everywhere.

Even the thugs were wearing flowered cotton clothes.

There is not a single hemp shirt in the entire city of Qufu!

Open a cellar at random, and what you see are angry thieves weighing hundreds of kilograms!

The copper coins and the rotten hemp ropes in the warehouse were piled together like a mountain.

In fact, many copper coins have become rusty and have grown together.

The grain in the granary exudes a strong musty smell.

The old grain turned into powder because it was too large to be dried.

Even the hanging bacon and salted fish will not be eaten by rats!

In fact, in the main room of almost every house, the quilt is not filled with cotton - but with silk!

The Qing army, who were originally a bandit group, had not received disciplinary training after being captured. How could they remember their mission after seeing this scene?

At some point, the Qing army lost command.

The Qing troops, who were laughing strangely and howling crazily, in groups of ten and five, knocked down every house they saw along the way.

He casually drew a graffiti on the door with blood, and regarded the mansion that could not be moved as his own possession.

The Qing army returned to their true colors...

They hacked men to death, tied up women, and some even started tearing off women's clothes on the spot...

The chaotic Qing army advanced as slowly as a snail!

After the initial panic, Kong Yinzhi immediately began to organize his servants.

In the world of the Ming Dynasty, the Kong family was the supreme god who allowed them to do whatever they wanted.

These mansions in the city are either the private residences of the Confucius family or the private property of the Confucius family stewards.

These people are usually servants in the Confucius Mansion, but when they leave the Confucius Mansion, they are superior masters.

I have been working in the Confucius Mansion all the time, so I naturally know that Qufu City is nothing, and the Confucius Mansion is truly impregnable!

Most of the city became a hell on earth, and the Kong family members who had not been massacred by the Qing army began to gather in the Kong family compound.

They don't even care about the money in their own treasury...

For them, although it is wealth that has been "accumulated" for a lifetime, or even for generations.

however……

As long as my own life is saved, as long as the Kong family is safe...

What's the lost money?

Not to mention that sooner or later it will be possible to get it back again, but to say that Confucius suffered disasters and encountered rioters and looting - would the emperor dare not give him a reward to appease him?

I really thought that the Kong family was just a place to pay homage to Confucius!

You should know that the Confucius family is divided into 60 families, and each family compiles a separate household registration. Therefore, it is also called "Sixty Households".

Each of these sixty households performs their own duties, and there are many large and small stewards under them.

It can be said that the Kong family is an uncrowned "imperial court".

As more and more young people entered the Confucius Mansion, Kong Yinzhi's heart also returned to his stomach.

Muskets, swords, armor, strong bows, arrows, boxes and bundles were carried out and distributed to everyone.

There are even poisonous fire crows that are very rare in the army!

The walls of the Confucius courtyard are piled with young men.

It was not until late at night that the Qing troops scattered all over the city gathered in front of the Confucius Mansion at the urging of the generals.

"hiss!"

Everyone took a deep breath!

To be honest, although Qufu is strong and built entirely with blue bricks, it is even better than many other cities.

However, Qufu is not high!

The city base of Qufu is only two feet tall. Not counting the city gate tower, it is only two feet high.

What kind of city, placed at the border, is simply a dwarf.

However, the Confucius Mansion in the city was built in imitation of the Forbidden City.

Therefore, in later generations, Confucius Mansion was also known as the "Forbidden City of the Ming Dynasty".

The strength of the Confucius Mansion is even comparable to that of the Imperial Palace.

The splendid glazed and bright yellow double eaves reflect the flames in the brazier.

It’s jaw-dropping!

The tongues of fire spitting out from the top of the city, and the dense rain of bullets like a torrential rain, caused heavy casualties to the Qing army.

The Qing army, which lacked heavy artillery, fell one after another in front of the Confucius Mansion.

The corpse stained red in the snow, with bulging balls in its arms.

Obviously, these were all snatched from mansions in the city.

Seeing the heavy casualties among his people, Dongguo suddenly became anxious.

As the daughter of Dorgon, Dongguo naturally knows that in the Qing Dynasty, after a woman gets married, the only person she can rely on is her natal family.

Her natal family was so powerful that even the Qing Emperor had to give her face.

If the natal family is lost to everyone, even if it is the emperor's woman, she will be rewarded to her subordinates on the third day after giving birth!

Dongguo knew that he was kidnapped.

According to Ming Dynasty practice, until a prince is born, he is not even considered a "concubine" among the concubines!

Although she will soon become the imperial concubine of the Ming Dynasty...

but!

Not safe!

How could Zhu Youjian not understand her identity?

How could Zhu Youjian not know what she wanted to do?

Dongguo knows that if he is of no use value, he will be relegated to the sidelines in the next moment!

Didn't you see that she just came to take away Kong Yinzhi with her subordinates, and was promised the high position of imperial concubine?

In the deep palace, if you want to climb up, you need the support of your mother clan the most.

And she, Dongguo, was born in the Qing Dynasty...

Even if she is Dorgon's daughter, the Qing Dynasty will not help her. Without her help, the Qing Dynasty will not be able to survive for years!

Dongguo must find helper for himself.

These prisoners are the most beneficial backup in her hands!

Whether she can secure her position as the imperial concubine and whether she can take a step further depends on these reductions!

Every time someone dies, Dongguo feels his heart bleeding...
