Chapter 227: The Kong family submits a surrender letter...?!
Chapter 227: The Kong family submits a surrender letter...?!
After watching a few episodes of TV series, Li Ranran regained his spirits and started his plans for today.
Li Ranran was so busy the whole morning that she had no time to check her phone or slack off. It was only during the lunch break that she finally took out her phone to refresh the video.
[Did the descendants of Confucius, the "Yanshenggong", really write letters of surrender? 】
【Oh my god! I just found out now that since the Northern Song Dynasty, the Kong family has been conferred the title of "Yanshenggong". Almost every time there is a change of dynasty, the Kong family has been submitting a letter of surrender...
When the Northern Song Dynasty became the Southern Song Dynasty, the Kong family surrendered to the Jin Dynasty and still enjoyed the treatment of "Duke Yansheng".
After the fall of Jin and Southern Song, the Yuan Dynasty still accepted the surrender of "Duke Yansheng".
When Zhu Yuanzhang went north to attack the Yuan Dynasty and unified the world, the Kong family was still the "Duke of Yansheng". Even during the Ming Dynasty, the Kong family became even more arrogant and domineering.
Emperor Chongzhen was hanged on Coal Hill, the Qing army entered the pass, and the "Duke of Yansheng" again submitted a letter of surrender to Dorgon...
At that time, the Qing court issued an order to shave their hair. Many Han people would rather be beheaded and bleed than change their clothes... However, "Yanshenggong" praised the Qing Dynasty in his article as the destiny of heaven, "the mountains and rivers shine with the sun and the moon, and the country's prosperity is as long as the universe" and finally submitted a petition to the Qing court to support "shaving hair"...
Alas, I am really speechless.
certainly! ! !
These are not the most difficult to accept. When it comes to the "Yanshenggong" in the late Qing Dynasty, those operations are really called jumping left and right, sitting on the fence, sitting on the fence...
Shandong became a German colony, and many patriotic demonstrations broke out in China. What about the Kong family? Well, they immediately knelt to welcome the portrait of German Emperor Wilhelm II.
Let’s just say…there’s no FUCK to say.
Yuan Shikai wanted to be emperor, he wrote a letter of support...
He also supported Zhang Xun's Hundred Days Restoration...
During the pseudo-Wang Jingwei regime, he wrote a letter of congratulations...
At the end, the Japanese army was about to enter Shandong, and Chiang Kai-shek could not stand it anymore. Before the Kong family hosted a banquet for Taijun... Chiang Kai-shek immediately sent someone to take him to Wuhan... If he was a step later, they would really be trampling on the face of their ancestors...】
<"Shi Xiu's Surrender"
"Generational osteomalacia">
<First couplet: Yesterday they surrendered to the Mongols, now they surrender to the Qing Dynasty, what's the point of talking about it? Then I understood: Good advice will bring more happiness to the family.
Second couplet: Confucius said Cheng Ren, Mencius said Qi Yi, they have all been forgotten. Just remember: Those who understand current affairs are heroes.
Horizontal banner: Shixiu surrenders. >
<Is there something wrong with my memory? I seem to have seen something about the Kong family being discontinued before. Didn’t it happen once during Kong Rong’s time, during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, and also during Temujin’s time?>
<Anyway, it is Schrödinger's Kong family. There is also a rumor that "Kong Liu on the outside, Kong Zhang on the inside". One rumor says that the family was wiped out by Liu's family slaves and replaced by him. Another rumor says that Kong Renyu fled to Zhang's family to avoid being hunted down by Liu's family slaves, but was still killed by the pursuers. The person who was canonized later was actually a member of Zhang's family>
<Before the Song Dynasty, it was a noble family. In the Song Dynasty, it became, 'Dynasties come and go, but the Duke of Yansheng remains forever'. It's funny, too funny>
<I saw a sentence before that seems to fit them quite well: "Seventy-six generations of domestic slaves, twenty-five generations of traitors">
<The one we respect is Confucius, not "Yanshenggong">
<Originally a mascot, it has become increasingly unclear about its political stance, and has been showing signs of surrender every time a foreign race invades>
<Tsk, isn’t this a typical case of a great scholar arguing for me>
<Emmm, if Chiang Kai-shek hadn’t stopped us, we might have been able to see the “Duke Yansheng” wearing a kimono and welcoming Emperor Meiji [covering face]>
<In fact, the Duke of Yansheng in the Northern Song Dynasty was quite normal, including after the Jingkang Shame, when the Duke of Yansheng returned to the Song Dynasty with his heirlooms and prohibitions. The Southern Confucius still had a lot of integrity. But the Northern Confucius... was... soft>
<Hasn’t it been said in modern times that we should “overthrow the Confucius family business and save Confucius”! ! !>
<During the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, whenever there was a natural disaster or man-made disaster in Shandong, the Kong family would start to annex land>
<The Kong family was just a tool of the feudal rulers>
<I really wonder what Confucius would think if he saw its descendants look like this>
<It seems that there is no one in the Kong family who has made great achievements. I only remember Kong Rong who gave up his pear to others [laughing and crying]>
[Kong Rong in the fifth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty: !!! Why is the Kong family extinct here? ! After reading the rest, I would rather the Kong family really die out here than see them do such a despicable thing.]
[Song Chunxi Year 2, Kong Jie: No, not yet, we are different from those in the north…]
[Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng: Last time I learned about the changes in Confucianism, and today I saw what the descendants of the so-called saints are like... I am really surprised, you don’t have any]
[Emperor Wu of Han Liu Che: Hahahaha, there really is a great scholar debating for me]
[Emperor Gaozu of Han Liu Bang: What the hell is this? This has been passed down for a thousand years? And it’s still like this?]
[Tang Taizong Li Shimin: [Frowning] Shi Xiu surrendered, and only knows how to save his life. He has long forgotten the virtues and classics of his ancestors. It is really shameful! ! ! ]

Listening to the video full of marketing tone, Li Ranran confirmed the authenticity of the video while reading the comments.
She knew the joke about "the Kong family's generations of surrender". Of course, she originally thought it was just a joke. Unexpectedly, hey, it really wasn't a joke, but a fact.
However, this kind of video is just for fun, so don't worry about anything else. After watching this video, Li Ranran went to find other videos to watch.
However, the people from various dynasties who were watching this video through the light screen were already arguing loudly!
Especially the descendants of Confucius in various dynasties!
The Kong family before the Song Dynasty scolded the Kong family after the Song Dynasty. They think that you so-called "Yanshenggong" really bring shame to our ancestors. You are not worthy of being called Kong family at all. You are a disgrace to Confucius. You are irresponsible and spineless. Do you deserve the title of Yanshenggong? !
Dong Zhongshu felt sad about the development of Confucianism in later generations. What did Confucianism become that made people in later generations hate it so much that they wanted to "overthrow the Confucian school"?
At this time during the Chunxi period of the Song Dynasty, the Kong family in the south felt extremely aggrieved. Their family was the most authentic "Duke Yansheng", and they had fled to the south with the original King Kang Zhao Gou. They had always identified with the Song Dynasty, and had never done anything like those in the north who surrendered to both the Jin and Yuan dynasties!
Oh no, General Yue and General Han must succeed in the Northern Expedition. The hope of returning to Shandong and continuing to enjoy a good life depends on them!!!
After reading it, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed out loud, he was so angry that he laughed.
When he unified the world, the Kong family was unwilling to come and pay him respects. Why did they surrender so quickly when the foreign race invaded? They did not work, did not produce, and bullied men and women all day long.
Humph, I’ve been wanting to clean this up for a long time, well… now that this video is out, it can be considered an excuse.
The salary should not be so high. Duke Yansheng? I am afraid that this title is now stinking.
The emperors of the Qing Dynasty also seriously considered whether to revoke their title of "Yanshenggong"?
Anyway, who can be the emperor if he has no real power? Seeing the dissatisfaction of Shandong people towards Duke Yansheng in the comment section of the screen, Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong began to wonder why Duke Yansheng should be treated preferentially just because he is a descendant of Confucius?
What made them most upset was the group of people in the late Qing Dynasty who loved to surrender. They would surrender to anyone who came.
"Loyalty is not absolute, it is absolutely disloyal"
