Chapter 28 The Southern Sect of Confucius
The Qing officials who had been bound and surrendered were taken into custody, and the army outside the city entered the city from Lixian Gate. Soon, the Ming army occupied the key points everywhere and sent troops to patrol the streets and alleys, and finally controlled the entire city.
The Zhejiang-Fu Governor's Office is located in the later generations of Shangshe Street. It will be the headquarters of Chen Wen. The Ming army of the brigade has already entered and drove the original staff, officials and subordinates of the Governor's Office into the prisoner's camp with the defenders, and then screen it later. After cleaning up, the staff of the army, the staff of the General Staff, and some auxiliary soldiers will advance to the time to arrange it, and Chen Wen's general flag is even erected here.
The city defense matters were arranged by the General Staff Department, and the troops drawn by each battalion were guarded separately. In terms of civil affairs, Chen Wen's military staff had also begun to count the inventory, and at the same time instructed the officials in various parts of the city to count the population and issue notices for the people.
Thinking back to the time when he captured Dongyang County last year, Chen Wen relied on the relatively mature civil service system of the Ming army in Dalanshan, he had to participate more or less in these matters. But now, the General Staff of the Military Affairs Department is responsible for arrangements, and the Civil Affairs Department has staff members to handle the matters, while he only needs to conduct random inspections, without any effort to deal with common affairs.
When entering Quzhou City, Chen Wen's first thing was to go to the Confucius Temple in the Southern Sect to worship Confucius's spiritual throne.
The Kong Family Temple was originally located in Qufu, Shandong, which was Confucius' hometown. Later, in the late Northern Song Dynasty, the Jin army went south. At that time, the Yansheng Gong Kong Duanyou, who was carrying the heirlooms, was said to have carved the "King Wooden Figures of Confucius and Mrs. Qi Guan" by Zigong, "The Tang Dynasty Wu Daozi's Sword Painting of Confucius' Swords" and "The Supreme Saint Wenxuan King Temple Sacrifice Red Seal" and some tribes moved south, and later lived in Quzhou, Zhejiang, which was the Southern School of the Kong Family.
During the first year of the Yuan Dynasty, Kublai Khan, the founder of the Yuan Dynasty, proposed to establish descendants of Confucius, who lived in Quzhou as the main rank, and wanted to call them back to Qufu to inherit the title of the title of the title of the title of the title of the title of the title of the title of the title of the title of the title of the title of the title of the title of the title of the name of the name of the name of the name of the title of the title of the title of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the Emperor Yan of Qufu, and the Southern rank was not until the Hongzhi period of the Ming Dynasty that the position of the doctor of the Five Classics of the Hanlin Academy was obtained until the Hongzhi period of the Ming Dynasty.
Chen Wen, the Northern Sect of the Kong Family, can’t touch it now, but since Quzhou has been recovered, the Confucius Temple in the Southern Sect still has to worship, and it is necessary to go and worship.
Worshiping the Confucius Temple is a compulsory course for every Quzhou guard. It can even be said that every official who passes through Quzhou will almost certainly do. Just like when Chen Wen went to pay homage to Zhang Guowei in Dongyang, worshiping the filial son temple in Yiwu, and when he visited the county, he would definitely go to the famous places and historical sites in each county. In this era when Confucianism was popular and even the Tartar emperors wanted to respect Confucius, worshiping Confucius was crucial.
When he arrived at the Confucius Family Temple, Chen Wen fell to Confucius' spiritual throne according to etiquette and kowtowed. The entire process was accompanied by Kong Zhenshu, the leader of the Southern School of the Kong Family.
Although Kong Zhenshu was the patriarch, he was not a hereditary doctor of the Five Classics of the Hanlin Academy. He was the brother of Kong Zhenyun, a former hereditary doctor of the Hanlin Academy. Kong Zhenyun had long passed away, and now the hereditary doctor of the Hanlin Academy appointed by the Ming court no longer exists. Instead, in February this year, the Qing Dynasty ordered Kong Yanzhen, the eldest grandson of Kong Zhenyun, to inherit it, and became the hereditary doctor of the Hanlin Academy of the Hanlin Academy in the Qing Dynasty.
Kong Yanzhen had just gone out of the city to surrender with the group of Qing officials. Chen Wen knew very well the intention of those sluts to ask Kong Yanzhen to tie him up. He did not make things difficult for them. Instead, he sent several officials in the lead to the governor's office with Kong Yanzhen, waiting for him to finish the matter before deciding their fate.
After worshiping Confucius' spiritual throne, Chen Wen walked around the Confucius Temple in the Southern School. He said that this was too hasty and was solemnly commemorated after the court issued an order to hereditate the doctor of the Five Classics of the Hanlin Academy. He then left. Along the way, Kong Zhenshu, the head of the Kong family, wanted to explain several times that Kong Yanzhen accepted the official position of the Qing Dynasty and went out to accompany him today. As a result, Chen Wen changed the topic and was so anxious that he was like an ant on a hot pan.
<>>Returning to the headquarters of the Governor's Office, Chen Wen first dealt with some things, listened to the reports of his staff and generals, and then sent people to invite the Qing officials who surrendered.
Due to the existence of Shentangyuan in the battle a month ago, many officers of the Qing army were captured by the Ming army. Only the semi-disabled Dubiao Battalion and the Fujian General Road General Soldier Battalion were escaped. Other senior officers were only Jiangxi Admiral Liu Guangbi and Wenzhou Deputy General Hu Laijin. Especially Hu Laijin, the other deputy generals who were on the left wing of the Qing army were arrested, and only he fled back to Wenzhou with his personal soldiers. The ability to escape on this battlefield was indeed extraordinary. If he had been born a few years earlier, he might be able to compete with Zu Dashou in this regard.
The rest of the city of Quzhou this time were all the generals. The most important figures in the generals were just guards. Chen Jin was still alive before, so they were naturally ordered. Once Chen Jin died, these headless flies who did not rule each other could only extinguish their resistance.
These officers were too low-level, holding a bunch of deputy generals, generals, and guerrilla Chen Wen was really not interested in wasting time with them. The people invited this time were all civil officials in Quzhou Prefecture City. For example, Jinqu Yanshi Feng Rujing, Jinqu Yanshi, Jinqu patrol road Li Jiqi, Quzhou prefect Han Yangchun, Xi'an prefect Cheng Jinzheng, and Kong Yanzhen, the hereditary Hanlin Academy doctor of the Five Classics who had just been in office for only eight months.
Chen Wen has no memory of these people, and even his aides do not know much about these people.
Feng Rujing was the magistrate of Yongping Prefecture during the Chongzhen period. Later, when the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, he was the first Yongping Prefecture of the Qing Dynasty, and later he was promoted. Until March this year, Chen Wen's first attack on Quzhou had not yet begun, so he was changed from the position of Henan Provincial Administration and the River Devil was in charge of the river. Now that Quzhou was recovered by the Ming army, he was simply an unlucky guy.
Coincidentally, Li Jiqi, a Jinqu branch tour route, which was on par with Feng Rujing, should have been changed to the Lingbei branch tour route in Jiangxi in August this year, and the successor was Zhang Yuanlin, the governor of Yangzhou. In August, although the two sides were on the verge of fighting, the Qing Dynasty did not change its generals because the war was about to begin. As a result, the lucky one Zhang Yuanlin escaped the disaster, and Li Jiqi became another unlucky person.
In the original history, Feng Rujing's family was almost an official for generations during the Qing Dynasty, and Li Jiqi even served as the Minister of Works and the Ministry of War three years later, and he had a prosperous official career. But now, they can only wait for Chen Wen's disposal here. Even if Chen Wen lets them go, he will never have such an opportunity again.
These Qing officials were summoned to come over. When they saw Chen Wen, they did not salute, but stood there. Chen Wen didn't intend to make things difficult for them, so he asked them to sit down on their own, saying that they would confiscate their income in Quzhou and then let their families send a fine before releasing them.
Chen Wen never had a clear punishment standard for the Qing officials. Among the Qing army generals captured by him, Li Rong, deputy general of the Thunder Camp, was executed by Wang Jiang, and Ma Jinbao, general general of Jinhua, was slapped by him. These are actually exceptions. One was used to avenge Wang Yi, and the other was to avenge the suffering people of the Jinhua Massacre.
The captured civil officials, such as the prefect who had not even climbed the wall in Jinhua Mansion, are still locked up in a prison. They eat and sleep and eat enough every day. They even write a few sour poems that express their self-discipline in prison and keep themselves clean. They sing with the prefects of Dongyang and Yiwu counties in the prison, which is really a waste of food.
Sometimes, Chen Wen even thought that if the magistrate of Longyou County was locked up with them and gave them a pair of mahjong cards, these four brothers would not be able to play mahjong well in a few years and could produce a few gambling gods and other figures.
These officials surrendered on their own, but Chen Wen had no interest in attracting them. The most inexpensive thing in the world is those who want to be officials. There is no need to waste too much time on these unknown people. Now, it is actually just a promise that they will not make things difficult for them and will not break their promises. So Chen Wen just reiterated the handling and ignored them, but instead led the topic to Kong Yanzhen.
Kong Yanzhen, whose name is Si Ke, was the eldest grandson of Kong Zhenyun, who had inherited the Five Classics Doctors of the Hanlin Academy during the Wanli period. His father Kong Shangqian died early. Later, when his grandfather Kong Zhenyun died, a large number of Qing Dynasty officials, including Li Jiqi and Han Yangchun, went to pay their respects.
At that time, Chen Wen was far from entering Quzhou Prefecture. After the Battle of Zhoushan, the Ming army in Zhejiang seemed to be weak and even in danger. Nanzong was in the occupied area of the Qing Dynasty, so Kong Yanzhen came out to the Qing court to seek the position of the Five Classics Doctor of the Hanlin Academy. In February this year, the Qing Dynasty granted official positions, including the help of Chen Jin, Li Jiqi, Cheng Jinzheng and others. Therefore, when the Qing officials in Quzhou were forced to surrender, they used this kindness to find the young man who was only seventeen years old and add another layer of insurance to their life safety.
How could Chen Wen not know these slight mentalities? He just didn't bother to pay attention to these villains. However, for this successor of the Southern Confucius School of the Southern Confucius School, Chen Wen understood his mentality of repaying kindness, but he also had to force the Southern Confucius School of the Southern Confucius School to re-take the team as soon as possible to win the hearts of Confucian scholars tomorrow.
"I heard from the patriarch of the noble that Si Ke was the eldest grandson of the previous hereditary doctor of the Five Classics of Hanlin Academy, but so?"
“That’s right.”
Upon hearing this, Kong Yanzhen stood up and performed rituals. In addition to the rat tail on his head and the awkwardness of the Qing Dynasty's official uniform on his body, he was obviously a habit that he had only received strict education since childhood.
However, Chen Wen did not intend to let him go. This question was just a foreshadowing. Seeing Li Jiqi and others suddenly turn pale, he got to the point.
