Daming: Wanted to be a small landlord, but was forced to ascend the throne

Everyone looked up, isn't that Landlord Chen?

Landlord Chen is very famous in Qufu City, of course it used to be.

Landlord Chen's ancestor was also a Jinshi official. Although the position he held was not very high, and although that ancestor could read, he was still a happy-go-lucky character and did not make much achievements in his career.

However, the Chen family has an advantage, that is, they have a certain talent in economics and business.

Although their business is not too big, but the wind is going smoothly, after several generations, the family's farmland alone has hundreds of acres of land, and life is going smoothly.

It just changed when the Kong family moved here from the old city of Qufu.

The Kong family moved to the new city here, and there are still many ordinary people on the land here, such as big families like Chen Landlord.

If they want to occupy the fields, they will naturally use some shady means.

At first they wanted to buy Chen Landlord's land at a low price, but Chen Landlord was naturally unwilling.

His own fields are fertile, and the market price is very sought-after, but the Confucian family actually wanted to buy gold for the price of cabbage.

Now the mansion is even more chaotic, those servant boys in the mansion have all sneaked away, and some of them even stole things, and now only those who are nearby to serve are left behind.

……

Landlord Chen knew that Qufu was dominated by the Confucian family, and he also knew that the Confucian family was very powerful. His family advised him to sell it to the Kong family at a low price.

Mrs. Li scolded loudly.

"Auntie! Auntie!"

Before the applause was over, soldiers came in from outside.

It's just that something happened in the Confucian Mansion, and why Landlord Chen and the others found out about it so quickly in Linxian County is really surprising.

I heard that the emperor also specially summoned Kong Zhenhong, saying that he was the real disciple of the Kong family because he killed his relatives righteously. Unlike his father Kong Wenshao, Kong Zhenhong was the real candidate for Duke Yansheng.

Mrs. Li, Mrs. Yan Shenggong, was lying ill on the bed, coughing occasionally.

It's just that this situation happened to the Confucian Mansion now, and she knew that she had to stand up, so that the Confucian Mansion would have a chance to save it.

"Why don't you call a doctor quickly when you're sick? How did you become a mother? Take me in and have a look!"

After Kong Wenshao was arrested and paraded through the streets, the Confucian Mansion fell into chaos for a while.

After a few days, the bloody clothes of Chen Landlord's son were thrown at home, and Chen Landlord vomited blood on the spot.

Landlord Chen couldn't bear it and wanted to argue, but was beaten up and thrown out in the end.

After Qin Shao listened, he applauded directly.

But the Huang family relied on giving birth to a child by herself, and Kong Wenshao wanted to guard against the Li family, so she raised the child by herself. Huang's singer, and Kong Wenshao's perverted appearance, how could he raise a good child!
"Madam... Zhengan... Zhengan... is sick..."

Even the most powerful butler of the Confucian Mansion who was valued by Kong Wenshao rebelled. The people of Qufu City knew that it would be more difficult to overturn the case of the Confucian Mansion.

Li's personal servant girl persuaded.

Kong Zhenqian was Kong Wenshao's most valued son, born to his concubine Huang.

Qin Shao asked, a guard came back to report, so it shouldn't be something that cannot be made public.

Mrs. Li coughed again. After coughing for a while, she gasped and asked.

Kong Zhenhong said that as the descendants of the Kong family, the Kong family has enjoyed too many benefits. Because of too many, the descendants of the Kong family did not know how to work hard to make progress, indulge in extravagance, and waste time.

Mrs. Chen made some jewelry again, went to the county government to make some contacts, got a guide, and then took her husband, son and family to her natal family in Lincheng.

Besides, that Kong Wenshao didn't like his wife, Mrs. Li, and Mrs. Huang didn't pay much attention to Mrs. Li because she had a son to support her.

After Kong Wenshao's accident, Huang was even more frightened, the mansion was noisy, she was too frightened to come out, and she dared to show her face only after those people almost emptied the Kong mansion.

……

"Ma'am, the doctor said that you must take medicine, otherwise your physical illness will hardly recover..."

Looking at her son who was beaten blue and swollen, Huang cried in distress, and gave some of the jewelry she brought to the people at Yixiang Pavilion, and those people left in dismay.

It's just that he was still out of Qufu, and his only son was arrested by the county government, saying that he was harassing a woman from a good family, and even killed him.

The young master she was talking about was naturally Kong Zhenqian.

"His Majesty!"

"Madame... madam..."

Until Kong Zhenhong, the eldest son of the Confucian Mansion, reported the Confucian Mansion and Yan Shenggong, the emptying activity completely reached its climax.

Kong Wenshao didn't like Mrs. Li, didn't want her to grow up in this house, and kept Kong Zhenqian by his side all the time.

He kept cursing at Huang Shi and Kong Wenshao in his heart.

Hearing that it was sent back by people from Yixiang Pavilion, Mrs. Li felt bad.

And let the followers directly draw up the ritual volume and regulations, and make a comprehensive arrangement of etiquette and convenience for Kong Zhenhong to become the next Yan Shenggong.

After Kong Wenshao's accident, Mrs. Li collapsed all of a sudden, and the house was in chaos, and it was impossible to take care of it, let alone that Kong Zhenqian was not at home.

"what's up?"

Those who heard it, except for the emperor, those officials in the capital were stunned on the spot.

Lu Yu, a member of the Ministry of Rituals, is a man who sees the wind and turns the rudder. He immediately said that the emperor's decision was wise, and on behalf of the Ministry of Rites, he fully agreed with it.

Moreover, those fields of the Confucian Mansion, if they seized the private fields, returned them directly to the original owners, and returned the others to the imperial court for unified distribution by the imperial court.

His wife cried and persuaded Landlord Chen.

The Confucian mansion unexpectedly came up with a vicious method to snatch the woman into the mansion, not expecting the woman to be a staunch man, she jumped into the well and died, and this crime was placed on the landlord Chen's son.

Born as a singer of the Huang family, she was sent to the Confucian Mansion to be Kong Wenshao's concubine because of her beauty.

Mrs. Huang wanted to stop her, but the maid next to Mrs. Li pulled her away, and Mrs. Li walked directly to Kong Zhenqian's room.

Who knows, Landlord Chen couldn't bear the next thing at all. First, the crops in his field were damaged before they grew, and then his family's janitor was beaten.

"What... what is she here for?"

Huang said eagerly.

The servant girl said with some fear.

Li Shi said bitterly.

A little maid rushed in and shouted at a woman.

Landlord Chen is also considered a smart person, and he immediately understood that he wanted to prostitute for nothing!
This is really... really deceptive!

When those officials saw the emperor clapping their hands, they immediately followed suit.

"Help me...help me get up and go to the young master's yard!"

But after Kong Zhenhong said his request, many people expressed their disbelief:

"Madam, is this useful?"

Li Shi struggled to sit up and said.

"Ma'am, what do you think we should do? Now that the master is like this, and...there are still those officers and soldiers outside the door who don't come in, but they have been surrounding the Confucian mansion..."

Anyway, Kong Wenshao is already dead, if I can support Kong Zhenqian to the top...

As for the Confucian Mansion Garden being used as a public garden in Qufu City to develop Qufu's economy, it can also be used as a commercial street in Qufu.

No wonder everyone was afraid, the reason was that no matter what Kong Zhenhong said, he was still the Kong family, Kong Zhenhong came up instead of Kong Wenshao, the emperor and the capital sent officials away, no one could say for sure whether the Kong family would settle accounts after the fall.

The steward of the Kong family directly said that their master doesn't want to buy it now, but the meaning of that smile is unclear...

Although the Huang family is favored, they are concubines in this Ming Dynasty. What is a concubine? Although many concubines are favored, concubines are the private property of the family in name, and they can be bought and sold at will.

"Auntie, Auntie, Madam is here!"

The courtyard of Kong Zhenqian.

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Huang didn't get along very well, and she didn't like Kong Zhenqian very much.

"Okay! Okay! It's no loss to be the eldest son of the Confucian family, the future head of the Kong family, and he is dedicated to the world and the public!"

However, Mrs. Li is rich and not angry. Sometimes Mrs. Huang is really afraid of her.

The little maid shouted.

I heard that a reporter from the Jinghua tabloid in the capital also came and conducted a special interview with Kong Zhenhong.

On the way to the courtyard, she had already heard that Kong Zhenqian had been beaten up two days ago and brought over.

While the people of Qufu were surprised and even a little scared, Kong Zhenhong made a decision that shocked everyone.

Landlord Chen's wife was born in an official family, and she had some knowledge, knowing that they were not shedding their skins, so they couldn't hide at all.

In the early years, Kong Zhenhong's streaking for tofu Xishi was also a great feat of being able to save weak women and not hesitate to break up with the Confucian government.

As for the Confucian House as a place for students in Qufu City to study, it is enough to have a small yard!

The Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Punishment also sent officials to review and manage with full authority.

……

Landlord Chen took the lead. All of a sudden, Qufu City came to accuse the Confucian government of seizing land and bullying women and men.

Some people even sued the stewards and servants of the Confucian Mansion for bullying others, and everyone in the Confucian Mansion was in danger for a while.

Now that she is old and has no heirs, she is already disappointed in the Confucian Mansion, thinking that she will spend the rest of her life in Qingdeng Ancient Buddha.

Although Landlord Chen had a tough personality, his son had to soften in his hands.

On the second day, Young Master Chen, who was beaten with a bruised nose, a swollen face and a weak body, was carried back.

Landlord Chen is a serious person, he even thought of going out to sue.

The inside of the door was locked, and Mrs. Li couldn't open it.

"Young Master... Young Master has never been out of the house since the old master's accident. He used to like to go out and stay away from the house. Now we go to his yard to find him, but he doesn't open the door. I don't know what's wrong? I've told him several times. The second wife is sick, there is an accident at home, I asked him to come and have a look, but he didn't even open the door..."

As the new Lord Yansheng, he is willing to donate all the belongings of the Kong family.

When Huang's family gave birth to Kong Zhenqian, she wanted to keep Kong Zhenqian by her side.

Li Shi asked sharply.

The maid said nonchalantly.

Back then, Lao Yan Shenggong was dismissed for his crimes. After Kong Wenshao came to power, he did not stop punishing those who exposed him.

The emperor had already spoken like this, and who could object, all the officials immediately expressed their approval.

Only after Huang took a breather did she realize that her son Kong Zhengan was not in the mansion, and she dared not go out to look for it.

"What's your name? The young master is still resting inside..."

Even though Kong Wenshao didn't like to treat Li Shi coldly, he still didn't dare to do anything to his first wife Li Shi publicly!
After all, Daming still protects his first wife and regular wife, let alone the daughter of the Li family. Even if Li Dongyang, the former chief assistant, is no longer there, there are still some nails in the broken ship. If someone says something in the court, Kong Wenshao is also afraid!

He found two servants who were still in the mansion and knocked on the door directly, and the door opened!
On the bed, Kong Zhenqian covered her body with the quilt in panic and couldn't get out. When she heard them coming, she screamed loudly in fright.

Huang came over tremblingly and saluted.

Therefore, even if many concubines give birth to a child, they will give the child to the eldest lady to raise, so that the child can have a good status.

According to the customs of this era, even if the concubine's concubine's wife can't have a child, if the concubine's wife is willing, she can raise the child by her side as her own child, and the child will have the reputation of being a concubine.

"An idiot who can't be supported by mud! Think about it, the Huang family is also, after all, a concubine. Kong Wenshao is so overjoyed, he doesn't even know how much he weighs. What kind of good children can these two people raise."

That Kong Wenshao stayed with her only to have a baby, and after she became pregnant, that Kong Wenshao stopped talking to her.

Although the Confucian Mansion has lost all valuables, fortunately there are still officers and soldiers guarding outside, and ordinary people dare not rush in.

He went to the Kong family to beg, saying that he was willing to sell the land to the Kong family cheaply.

A day later, Kong Zhenqian really came back, but he was carried back.

"Husband... madam..."

"It's useless to drink it. My disease... My disease, don't you know? Master... Where's the master? Let him come and see me!"

Landlord Chen was terrified. He knew that this matter must have been written by the Kong family. His son was an honest man, and he and the woman were childhood sweethearts.

Fortunately, she gave birth to a son, and she also stood still in this Confucian mansion.

Li said directly.

Although Mrs. Li's complexion was sallow, ever since she knew Mrs. Huang was in Kong Zhenqian's yard, she became annoyed very quickly, and called Mrs. Huang as soon as she entered the yard.

Su Mu, the steward of the Confucian mansion, took the lead in exposing Kong Wenshao's evil deeds, and personally handed in various evidences of Kong Wenshao's occupation of the land and playing with the housekeeper, causing an uproar.

The matter about the inverted hole has been going on for seven or eight days and it is not over yet.

Asked Huang, Huang was also at a loss, saying that he had been locked outside for several days, but could not get in.

"Master! The Kong family came here for those fields. We can't afford to offend them. We might as well sell the fields to the Kong family and bring our son back soon!"

Under the service of the maid, Li slowly got up to drink the medicine, but the Chinese medicine was so thick that she couldn't drink it after two sips, so she waved her hand and asked the maid to take it.

"Madam! Madam! Get up and drink your medicine!"

The person who carried him said that he was from the Yixiang Pavilion (brothel), and that Kong Zhenqian did not pay for the Bawang meal there, but he asked for money to carry him back.

Everyone rumored that Huang was Kong Wenshao's favorite and beloved concubine, but only Huang knew that Kong Wenshao was just a silver spear and wax head, and he didn't use it too much at all, what he liked was the same gender as himself.

"Stupid woman~! Stupid woman!"

"Ms. Huang! Mrs. Huang! Come out!"

Li Shi struggled to get up.

"This is the only way!"

Many people began to regret that they were too reckless,

The woman looked haggard and couldn't help complaining.

The maid asked with some uncertainty.

He directly cleaned up all the gold and silver at home, and then went directly to the Confucian Mansion with the land deed.

"Mr. Huang, where is Zhenqian?"

Many people outside are against the Confucian family. I heard that the family steward was beaten when he went out, and was finally arrested in the county government. Thinking about it, the Huang family dared not leave the Confucian mansion.

Now that it's a private matter, Wang Yin and the others naturally wouldn't send such a person over.

"Mr. Li, please see me!"

"Which Mr. Li?"

Qin Shao was a little confused.

"The former wife of Yan Sheng Gong, Mrs. Li!"
