121, father and son

The emperor was shocked, and then he knew that his concubine and son were so afraid of the prince! He was very distressed, helped Concubine Guo up, took her into his arms, stroked her hair, and sighed: "Concubine Hugh should be afraid of the prince, with me here, he doesn't dare to do anything to you." You can rest assured, your mother and son are not wrong, why did you depose you from Beijing? I will summon Yang Tinghe tomorrow to discuss moving back to Nanjing. ”

Guo Guifei was overjoyed, moving the capital was such a big thing, the emperor was shaken because of their mother and son! This shows how important the status of their mother and son is in the emperor's heart! If it goes on like this, he will blow the wind in the emperor's ears a lot in the future, why worry about the status of the crown prince not being shaken? At that time, she will repay the prince's lesson!

That night, the emperor didn't even go to the new sister Hua Beauty, and hugged Guo Guifei and said love words for one night, which made the concubine burst into tears and laughed.

In the early morning of the second day, the emperor spoke: "Since I ascended the throne, I have often felt that the climate in Beijing is cold and unsuitable for human habitation. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid you Aiqing's body can't bear it. Moreover, the north and south provide hundreds of millions of labor, the army and the people are in difficulty, and the Quartet looks up to Nanjing, and Si is also my plain heart. Therefore, I often think about returning to the south, I don't know what your opinions are? ”

Yang Tinghe, the first assistant, is the head of the ministers, and the ministers often look at his eyes. At this time, his brows were deeply locked, and he thought for a while before stepping forward and replying: "The land of the national capital is the foundation of a country, and moving the capital is not child's play, how can the order be changed overnight?" ”

Zhang Fu also stepped forward and said: "The first emperor moved the capital, and once said: If you want to guard the country with the Son of Heaven, it is a righteous and fearless move not to be afraid of the cold climate in Beijing. Also because of Nanjing's prosperity and extravagance, the capital of Nanjing, fearing that future generations will lose their provident funds. Fascinated by the sound of dogs and horses. Beijing, on the other hand, belongs to the land of Yan Zhao, with many tragic songs and generous people, with the wind of gold and stone, hoping for future generations of monarchs and ministers, bloody men, and generous and calm people. It's not just for pleasure and comfort. “

Xia Yuanji also said: "The first emperor built Beijing, and successively counted 20 years, moved 10,000 households, opened canals, and built the Forbidden City, costing millions of people and more than 1,700,000 taels of silver. Now, if you move back to Nanjing, the former will be in ruins! And Nanjing palace has sunk and damaged, if it is rebuilt, I am afraid that it will take millions of silver, and now the silver of the treasury is ready for the funeral of the first emperor, Your Majesty, your enthronement ceremony, the queen, and the prince, there are only less than one million taels left, and there is no big expense to build your mountain mausoleum. ”

He said: After spending so much money, don't be sassy, and move back to the capital, but I'm afraid that the silver will not be able to support it in the first place.

The three important ministers all objected, and the emperor was very depressed. This meant that it was unlikely that his idea would be supported by his courtiers.

The emperor frowned, deeply displeased, thought about it, and retreated: "I am about to ascend the throne, I have to tell the ancestors, and I specially ordered the prince to go to Fengyang and Nanjing on my behalf to pay tribute to the ancestors' mausoleums, thinking that it was solemn." ”

After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for the prince to receive the order, and waved his sleeves and said: "Since there is nothing to do, let's retreat." When he turned his head, he saw a person, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said, "Li Shimian, you come with me." I have something to ask you. ”

This Li Shimian is a Hanlin attendant, why is the emperor so happy to see him? It turned out that when the first emperor wanted to move the capital, this Li Shimian had fiercely opposed, so the emperor saw him at this time and remembered that since he opposed the move of the capital to Beijing at that time, wouldn't he agree to move back to Nanjing at this time? Isn't that a great spokesperson?

The emperor took Li Shimian back to the imperial study, gave Li Shimian a seat, and asked: "I remember that when the emperor moved the capital, Qing had tried his best to oppose it, why did I want to move back to Nanjing today, but Qing didn't say a word?" ”

Li Shimian lowered his hand and said: "The minister opposed the relocation of the capital that day, because the relocation of the capital consumed the people's financial resources, and it was a move to work the people and hurt the money. There is no difference between Nanjing or Beijing. Today, if the emperor wants to move back to Nanjing, wouldn't it be another hectic situation? Moving back to Nanjing, the Nanjing palace needs to be rebuilt, and what is the use of these palaces in Beijing? Isn't it all wasted? The minister thought that it was better to be still than to move, and now that he had moved over and the dust had settled, there was no need to stir the dust again. Therefore, the minister seconded the proposal of the first assistant. ”

The emperor was so disappointed even if his face sank! This uninteresting thing!

The emperor hung up his face and said stupidly: "Beijing is cold in winter, the wind and sand attack people, I am quite unaccustomed, I have lived here for a long time, I am afraid that my health is not good." ”

What the Emperor means is that in this world, what could be more important than my Imperial Body? If I get a cold or something here, and you don't agree to move the capital, can you afford this responsibility?

How can this Li Shimian be a man full of bones, how strong the first emperor was, how should this Li Shimian refute it? At this time, he also didn't save face for the emperor, he lifted his official robe smoothly, knelt on the ground, first put on a dead posture, and then, seriously, said something rebellious: "The minister has not heard that His Majesty is sick with the dragon, but he has heard that the emperor is fortunate to be concubines and concubines at night, and often luckily several women overnight." is so strong and healthy, why not be afraid of the wind and sand? Now that the corpse of the first emperor is not cold, His Majesty will choose a girl, indulgence, where does filial piety exist? Since His Majesty said that the dragon body is not royal, why did he send the prince out of Beijing? Shi Mian asked the emperor to live in mourning and filial piety, and the distant concubines and princes should not leave the left and right. ”

When the emperor heard the first few words, he was already so angry that his face was blood-red, and he easily gasped for breath, Li Shimian's words had already been finished, the emperor grabbed the stone of the paperweight on the case with a trembling hand and smashed it towards Li Shimian, and shouted angrily: "Li Shimian insulted me!" Come! Pull me out! Kill with a gourd! ”

The next day, the stimulated emperor issued a strong decree, first reprimanding several ministers who had spoken out against moving the capital back to the south: "The Son of Heaven guards the country? What's the use of waiting for courtiers?! I don't want to serve the court, but I blame the monarch for defending the land! Insufficient treasury money? When the emperor was the emperor, the treasure ships went to the Western Ocean, and the cost was huge, so how could I not say that the treasury was insufficient! Why are you in a hurry to build the mountain mausoleum, don't you think that my year is not long?! I am long today, the matter of the mountains can be delayed, and the provincial bank will come out to do the relocation of the capital first! After the prince's mausoleum, he guarded the Nanjing palace and repaired it, and then returned after completion! ”

scolded Zhang Fu He Xia Yuanji for a bloody squirt, and more simply, let Zhu Zhanji send him to Nanjing to build a palace. Thinking that back then, his father threw him in Nanjing, and finally gave him the name of "prison country", he was good, he simply tore off his face naked, and directly asked the prince to repair the palace.
