When Cao Cao sent people to arrest the Kong Rong family, someone tried to help his two youngest sons escape, but one of them said a famous saying: "Under the nest, Ann has finished laying eggs." Finally, Kong Rong's family was killed.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the situation was turbulent, social thoughts were gradually liberated, and Confucianism could not completely standardize people's code of conduct. As a saint, Kong Rong studied Confucianism since childhood, but due to the influence of the times and his integrity, his speech and behavior are often very natural. Kong Rong often travels in casual clothes, without official clothes or headscarves. In Kong Rong's mind, the so-called filial piety is also unworthy. He even said: "Father is for the statue of Kong Rong."
Son, when did you have any relatives? As far as its original intention is concerned, it is actually lust. What is a child to a mother? Is it also ridiculous? For example, things sent in bottles come out and leave. "This kind of strange remarks, who would have thought it was from his descendants of the Confucius sage? We contacted the Han dynasty rulers who advocated "ruling the world by filial piety" at that time. The nonsense of Wang Xiang lying on the ice and Guo Ju burying children kept appearing in the official history, and we had to admire Kong Rong's courage. Kong Rong was one of the righteous representatives of the gentry at that time. He was upright in Geng Jie and proud all his life. As soon as he entered the official career in his early years, he was sharp-edged and corrected corrupt officials. "Chen has nothing to say about sin. "When Dong Zhuo manipulated the imperial court to abolish government, he often ignored Zhuo's purpose, and as a result, the samurai corps commander moved to the left to discuss Lang. Later, in Xuchang, Kong Rong often commented or wrote articles, attacking some measures that mocked Cao Cao. When Qiu married Yuan Shu, Cao Cao took it out on the table and planned to kill him. When Kong Rong knew this, he hurried to see Cao Cao, who didn't wear royal robes, and persuaded him not to kill innocent people, so as not to lose the hearts of people all over the world. And claimed: "If you kill Yang Biao, I Kong Rong will take off my clothes and go home tomorrow, and I will never be an official again." (The History of the Three Kingdoms, Cui Yan, quoted from Continued Han) Because of Kong Rong's argument, he was saved from death. In the ninth year of Jian 'an, Cao Cao captured Yecheng, and his son Cao Pina and Yuan Shao's daughter-in-law Zhen Shi became his wife. When Kong Rong knew this, he wrote to Cao Cao and said, "The King of Wu attacked Zhou and gave da ji to the Duke of Zhou." Cao Cao didn't understand that this was a mockery of their father and son and asked what the classics were. Kong Rong replied, "Just take it for granted." At that time, years of war, coupled with famine and shortage of rations, Cao Cao ordered the prohibition of alcohol, and Kong Rong made a series of books against it. Cao Cao was jealous of Kong Rong's repeated obstruction of himself, because the situation in the north was still unstable at that time, and Kong Rong's reputation was too great, so there was nothing he could do. In the thirteenth year of Jian 'an, the situation in the north was stable. On the eve of the great cause of reunification, Cao Cao began to attack Kong Rong in order to eliminate internal interference. He instigated the Prime Minister's army to plan a drink offering, falsely accused Kong Rong of "bad planning" and once "let go" with Miheng. The charge is Kong Rong's statement about the relationship between parents and children. Thus, in August of the 13th year of Jian' an, Kong Rong was abandoned and his wife and children were killed at the same time.
