"I find it ridiculous too, but compared to the saints who are well-versed in the Book of Rites but don't understand etiquette, I'm still a little less ridiculous."

Having said that, Wei Wu once again glanced around the main hall, and then continued:

"And this main hall, wow, there are torture instruments in the main hall. This is the Saint's Palace! The Jinyiwei prison is no better than this!"

I don't know if he just doesn't care or if he's heard too much about torture instruments.

When Wei Wu said this, Kong Ne did not react at all, and everyone in the Kong family also behaved very calmly.

Only Kong Xizhang, who was sitting next to Kong Ne, looked at Wei Wu with contempt and then responded.

"It seems that Lord Changle is quite ignorant! Doesn't he know that our Kong family's family rules and regulations have always been strict?"

"These torture instruments are placed in the main hall to represent the strict family traditions of our Kong family and the good character of our children. Do you understand?"

Hearing Kong Xizhang's words, Wei Wu glanced at him sideways.

You're just talking, but you still have to mock me? Don't you know that I have a bad temper?

If I argue with you, you can only bear it. If you argue with me, don't blame me for having fun with you.

After complaining in his heart, Wei Wu looked at Kong Xizhang and asked indifferently.

"Who are you? Do you have the right to interrupt me when I'm talking to your master?"

"you!"

Hearing this, Kong Xizhang's eyes widened, he stood up and pointed at Wei Wu's nose and said:

"Kong Xizhang is the elder brother of the previous patriarch, and now the patriarch's uncle. Why can't I speak in the main hall of the Kong family?"

"Kong Xizhang? Oh~ the magistrate of Qufu County, right?"

Hearing Wei Wu's words, Kong Xizhang immediately raised his head, but at this moment Wei Wu spoke again.

"He's just a sixth-rank county magistrate. My official rank is the fifth-rank imperial guard. You have to use honorifics when speaking to me."

"In terms of status, I am the Marquis of the Ming Dynasty. For what you just said, I can charge you with treason and make you kneel down to speak to me!"

Crushed by Wei Wu with his official position and status, Kong Xizhang's face turned as black as charcoal.

But what Wei Wu said was all true, and he didn't even have the confidence to refute it.

Seeing Wei Wu using his status to pressure his uncle, Kong Ne snorted coldly and stood up to help his uncle.

"Is being a marquis very prestigious? Marquis of Changle, then should I, the Duke, also charge you with treason and make you kneel down to speak?"

Kong Ne originally wanted to use his identity to get back at his uncle, but after he finished speaking, Wei Wu just smiled faintly.

"Really? Then why don't you choose one for me right now? I also want to see who will kneel down between us."

Why was Wei Wu so confident? It was simple. He had the imperial edict given to him by Zhu Yuanzhang in his arms!

All Wei Wu had to do was take this thing out and say something, and Kong Ne would kneel down to receive his order.

Even though Kong Ne was the Duke of Yansheng, he had to kneel on the ground and listen to the emperor's orders.

As for the content of the imperial edict, Wei Wu only said, "Haha, of course it was made up on the spot!"

Kong Ne, who was originally full of confidence, suddenly felt uncertain when he saw Wei Wu's attitude.

Seeing that Kong Ne stopped talking, Wei Wu smiled coldly and raised his hand to point at a member of the Kong family in the main hall.

Without saying a word, Shen Lin understood what he meant and led his men forward to pull the man up.

Then, under the angry gazes of everyone in the Kong family, he moved the chair behind Wei Wu.

During this process, Kong Ne could only watch with a cold brow, until Wei Wu sat down, then he spoke with a gloomy face.

"Wei Wu, what on earth are you doing here at my Kong family? If you have nothing to do, then leave my Kong family!"

It can be seen that Kong Ne was really angry, and he didn't even call Wei Wu by his name without mentioning his title.

Wei Wu didn't care about this. He just chuckled and looked at him with a playful look on his face and said:

"No, are you crazy? Now that I'm here, will I leave so easily?"
