Li Yan replied: "This is Mr. Zhu Yinian, the eldest son of the late Duke Fu Guo, the envoy of Zuo Zangku, and the minister of general affairs."

Duke Fu Guo? Is it Zhu Bocai?

Then isn't Zhu Yinian the eldest brother of the future Zhu Lian and Empress Zhu? The cousin of the late Song Zhezong?

I don’t know how old Zhu Lian is now?

Jiang Chen took a deep look at Zhu Yinian's back and couldn't help but want to make friends with (his sister).

But at this time, Kong Duancao, who had drunk one less glass of wine than the others, suddenly said angrily:

“How can such a peerless wine be compared with something that smells like copper? It’s the right thing for everyone to drink together!

At such a young age, your heart and eyes are full of things that smell like copper. Wouldn’t it be that you will become a corrupt official who brings disaster to the country and the people in the future?”

What a hypocrite!

Jiang Chen looked at Kong Duancao with disgust and sneered: "If I remember correctly, Kong Siye just dismissed this wine and said that I was vain! Why are you going back on your word now and saying that this is a masterpiece?

Where’s the wine?”

"Humph! What I drink is wine and what I spend is money. It has nothing to do with you, a treacherous villain like you! Are you still afraid that I won't give you money?"

While Kong Duancao was talking, he took out a silver ingot and slapped it on the table.

You're not done yet, are you?

Jiang Chen's face immediately darkened.

Thinking that the two secret recipes were only exchanged for a humble official position of being a young prisoner, and that he had no choice but to provoke so many powerful enemies, and was being chased by the Kong family, the depression squeezing in his heart immediately burst out.

Staring at Kong Duancao, he said angrily: "Before, I lived in a thatched hut and was engaged in what your brother Kong Duanyou said was a despicable industry for a living. However, I refused to use the secret recipe for personal gain. Instead, I dedicated it to the official family to replenish the national treasury and benefit the country.

Why does such behavior make you a treacherous villain in the eyes of the Kong family?

Do you, the Kong family, think like the Huayang Wang family that this secret recipe should not be dedicated to the official family, but to you? How much do you hate the official family?"

"You...you are talking nonsense! I have never cared about your secret recipe!"

Kong Duancao's eyelids jumped in shock, he pointed at Jiang Chen's nose and cursed: "You shameless villain, don't slander the reputation of our Kong family!"

"Hmph! Does your Kong family's reputation still need to be slandered?"

Jiang Chen didn't bother to curl his lips. Since the other party was chasing after him, he wouldn't be polite. He looked around the crowd and said loudly:

"I have heard a saying: The Confucius family is built with iron, and the dynasty is built with flowing water!

Over the past thousands of years, have you ever heard of a member of the Confucius family generously going to the country in times of crisis?

Have you ever heard of a Confucian who made contributions to the country and the people?

Have you ever heard of a member of the Confucius family who would rather die than surrender in order to uphold integrity for the country?"

As he spoke, Jiang Chen suddenly shook the roof tiles and said:

"No! Not one!

The Kong family doesn't care whether it's the Han Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty, they don't care who becomes the emperor, and they don't care if the country is destroyed or the family is destroyed!

They would give splendid congratulations to whoever became the emperor, continue to run to be the Holy Duke of Yan, and still dominate Qizhou and become the local emperor!

How can such a family have any reputation if they don’t even have any moral integrity?”

hiss……

Everyone's expressions changed when they heard this, and their eyes on Kong Duancao became complicated instantly!

"how so?"

"Is this really what the Kong Family Holy Sect is like?"

"Impossible, this is impossible!"

"That treacherous sycophant is sophistry! He must be sophistry!"

"..."

Plop, plop——

A group of small yamen from Taiyuan University collapsed on the ground with their eyes blank, their faith collapsed!

Some things don't exist if you don't think about them. Once you think about them carefully, they are heart-piercing!

Kong Duancao felt this heartbreaking pain the most. He couldn't help but stare at Jiang Chen with red eyes and said angrily: "You shameless traitor, how dare you slander the reputation of our holy sect, the Kong family? You are simply not a human being.

son!"

"I am not trying to slander you! I just want to give you a piece of advice to the Kong family. The sage said: A loyal minister will not interfere with two masters!"

Jiang Chen replied in a sonorous voice.

"You...poof——"

Kong Duancao spat out a mouthful of blood and fell down.

At this moment, he deeply regretted it!

He never expected that Jiang Chen would have such a strong 'combat power'. Not only was he not hacked, but he also brought the Kong family down from the altar.

I felt so depressed that I could die.

When the group of imperial students Xiaoyanei who regarded Kong Duancao as a god saw this, they went completely crazy and rushed towards Jiang Chen while shouting.

"Jiang Chen, you treacherous sycophant, when did the saint say that a loyal minister will not serve two masters?"

"How dare you make up the words of a saint at random? We want you to apologize to Kong Siye immediately!"

"Yes! Apologize, otherwise our Confucian sect will be at odds with you!"

"..."

They shouted and rushed forward, picking up teapots, chairs and other objects.

Um?

Liu Yuancheng and Pan Shun frowned and immediately stood in front of Jiang Chen.

Tu Yong, the commander of the Xiang soldiers at Yuhou, also quickly called his soldiers to surround him.

When Kong Duancao saw this, he was afraid that the Confucian students would suffer a loss, so he quickly shouted loudly: "Stop! The sage said: A gentleman has no power, but he should convince others with virtue!"

this……

The passionate students did not dare to go against the sage's words, so they could only stop reluctantly.

He stared at Jiang Chen unwillingly and said, "Is it useful to talk about kindness to people like him?"

"Of course it's useless!"

Jiang Chen shook his head and said with a smile on his face: "You talk to me about benevolence and righteousness, I will not admit my mistake to Kong Siye unless you hit me!"

Well……

"You...what do you mean?"

"Do you really want us to hit you?"

The passionate students looked at Jiang Chen with astonished expressions, eager to try.

Everyone's jaws dropped in shock, and they looked at Jiang Chen in stunned silence.

Jiang Chen calmly took a sip of wine and then said:

"Zilu was a brave and fierce man with a violent personality. Confucius tried to persuade him with benevolence and righteousness, but Zilu sneered and gave Confucius a black nose and a swollen face.

Afterwards, Confucius found a large group of people to beat Zilu. While beating him, Confucius said: Don't be afraid. I am a gentleman. I always persuade others with virtue and never kill easily!

Now I ask you, are you willing to listen to my kind words?

If you dare to say you don't want to, then I will kill you!

So Zilu became Confucius' most obedient disciple!"

Well--

Click, bang!

The teapot, cups and bowls instantly shattered on the floor!

The enthusiastic students who rushed towards Jiang Chen were all turned to stone on the spot, messy in the wind!

Kong Duancao was so angry that he roared: "Traitor! I am so angry!"

Immediately, he tilted his head, kicked his legs, and fainted from anger!

Well……

Everyone was stunned!

Qin Hui's eyelids jumped in shock: This scourge of Taite's mother is bad! It's not easy to mess with!

Just as he was thinking this, Jiang Chen earnestly taught the Confucian students:

"Confucius said: Loyal words are unpleasant to the ear and beneficial to action; good medicine is bitter to the mouth and beneficial to disease!

Kong Siye didn't listen because my words didn't suit his ears. As a result, he acted poorly and became sick and vomited blood! You must take this as a warning, do you understand?"

"ah--"

The small government officials ran away from the Jiaofang Department like crazy!
Chapter completed!
