Chapter 420: String Movement
(Second Update!) )
In addition to Changyin Gongzi and Shen Du, the first person in the court to learn that Emperor Chongde had plans to visit was Zhang Mingde, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.
Because Emperor Chongde summoned him and asked the emperor about the customization of the ceremonial guards such as the law driving and the halogen required for the emperor's patrol. The so-called hearing the string song and knowing the elegant meaning, Zhang Mingde immediately understood the mind of Emperor Chongde.
The emperor intends to go on patrol!
Immediately, he replied: "If you go back to the emperor, it will not take much time for the officials to prepare for the Fa driving, halogen, etc., about a month." ”
Among the requirements of the Ministry of Rites, the opening chapter about the emperor's patrol and luck is "Hunting at four o'clock, the former king is a regular canon, and there is a history of things." Since it is a regular canon and a history, then the Ministry of Rites should not formulate a charter, but only prepare it according to the previous rituals.
When flowering, naturally not too much.
Zhang Mingde felt a little strange: Why did the emperor suddenly want to go on patrol?
Emperor Chongde was not an emperor who liked to go out on patrol and be lucky. - This may have something to do with the fact that he was canonized as King Ping and moved to other places for three years. Some high-ranking officials could perceive that Emperor Chongde's sense of belonging to Jingzhao was stronger than that of previous emperors.
This kind of intensity, it doesn't matter if it's right or wrong, it's a matter of personal feelings. Yes, Zhang Mingde just felt strange.
Zhang Mingde only knew that Emperor Chongde wanted to patrol the fortification, but he didn't know where the emperor went. But this is not harmful to the Ministry of Rites, and the preparations that should be made can still be done in advance.
I didn't want to, but Emperor Chongde said: "I just asked, the Ministry of Rites doesn't need to prepare anything." These words are to make the Ministry of Rites inappropriate, and the implication is that he wants to patrol the fortunate matter, and he does not want the court officials to know.
Zhang Mingde respectfully received the order. I suppressed the intention of having the officials of the Ministry of Rites prepare the ceremony. As for himself, it is still possible to refer to some of the contents.
After Zhang Mingde left, Emperor Chongde continued to flip through the songs, but he couldn't see it very well. - He was still thinking about the trip to Jiangnan.
Touring Jiangnan was a plan he had last year, but all kinds of things in the DPRK and China continued, and it has been delayed until now. Two days earlier, the prince of Changyin entered the palace and tasted tea in the Taiye Pool. Mentioned the excellent spring/color of Gangnam. Let Emperor Chongde's mind move.
Changyin Gongzi has recovered from a long illness, and he is extremely yearning for the scenery of mountains and rivers, and in the fragrance of tea, he sighed and said: "When the minister is sick. I always want spring to come early. As everyone knows. Now I'm a little better. The best spring/light has gone, so it's better to go out for a walk. ”
His tone was gloomy and expectant. The fairy-like face can always make people feel a sense of approval, and Emperor Chongde is no exception.
Taking advantage of the good mountains and rivers of the country, it is indeed a pleasure to go out for a walk.
After Emperor Chongde ascended the throne, he also went on patrol two or three times, and the farthest was to Guannei Mansion, which was close to Jingzhao. He hadn't been to a place as far away as Jiangnan. Well, I haven't been there since I ascended the throne.
Hearing what the prince of Changyin said, Emperor Chongde was also a little stunned, and briefly said his plans to visit last year. It's not that I want to follow the advice of the young man, but I just leak a lot of real thoughts in my heart.
"Your Majesty, the mountains and rivers are very good, and it is worth visiting. Patrolling is also one of the ways to govern. The ministers thought that it was a good thing for the emperor to go out on patrol, to observe the customs and customs, to demonstrate in the four seas, and to spread the emperor's grace. Changyin Gongzi said, and the point was over.
He often tasted tea with Emperor Chongde, and he still knew Emperor Chongde's thoughts. He only talked about mountains and rivers and governance, and he never mentioned it, that is, it was enough to know that there was such an inducement.
Indeed, enough is enough.
The words of the prince of Changyin had already aroused the thoughts of Emperor Chongde. To be precise, the plan to patrol Jiangnan has always been in his heart, and now he is just being led out by the Changyin Prince.
He has such a plan, but it has not yet been finalized. After much thought, he summoned Zhang Mingde, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.
When asked about patrolling the luck, in fact, in Emperor Chongde's heart, he still prefers to patrol, but he still has concerns. His concern, very simply, is the problem of supervising the country.
If he goes out on patrol, Jingzhao is surrounded by hundreds of officials, and someone has to deal with the affairs of the nine mansions and sixteen guards. The center of the government is still in Jingzhao.
For several days, Emperor Chongde was thinking about this concern. In the end, it was the invitation of the Chinese scholar Du Pre that made him make up his mind.
In the early days of the Xuanzheng Palace, Du pre-lined up and said to Emperor Chongde: "Your Majesty, the current dynasty is peaceful, the prince has been established, and the ministers invite the emperor to go out of Jingzhao and patrol the nine mansions!" The ministers heard and sought to visit the customs, and Dahua was the first. Therefore, Emperor Shun patrols and hunts, looking at the mountains and rivers, and is all over the gods......"
Zhongshu Province made suggestions for the emperor and invited Emperor Chongde to visit the luck, which was one of the responsibilities of Du Pre, the Zhongshu squire. But as soon as his words fell, the officials in the palace were still stunned.
The reason why they were stunned was probably similar to Zhang Mingde: the emperor didn't like to go on patrol, why did Du Yu make such a suggestion? If the emperor goes on patrol, who will handle the political affairs of Jingzhao?
Many officials feel that now is not the time to go on patrol. The emperor is on patrol, of course, the prince is in charge of the country, but now the allocation of subordinate officials in the East Palace has not yet been completed, is it feasible for the prince to supervise the country?
The court officials were suspicious, and after Du was predetermined, no official stood up for a while, whether it was a postscript or an opposition.
After a long while, Cui Shao, the Taifu Temple, came out of the ranks, and p.s. Lu Qing asked: "Your Majesty, the minister agrees with Lord Lu's words." To be fortunate because of the deeds, to show off the might, may the emperor be fortunate, and the virtue will be exhausted......"
Cui Shao is a distant relative of Gu Zhan, and at this time, he spoke out to support Du Zhan's words, which made the officials can't help but glance at Gu Zhan a few times. Does Gu Zhan also mean to agree?
Gu Zhan stood with a calm expression, unable to see anything on his face. In his heart, he had nothing to do with it. Cui Shaohui agreed with Lu Qing's words, it must have been out of his own heart, and he didn't influence it much.
Hearing about the patrol, Zhu Xuanming, who was in the Xuanzheng Palace, couldn't help but light up his eyes: If his father goes on patrol, it will be the opportunity for him to exercise. Regardless of whether the father and emperor go on patrol for a month or two, during this time, he can get in touch with the government and deal with the affairs of the court in person.
Thinking of this, Zhu Xuanming felt that his blood was rushing, and his heart was slightly hot, and he was so excited!
At this time, Taichangqing Han Shiyuan came out to oppose it: "Your Majesty, patrol the nine mansions, mobilize the people, and the six palaces and civil and military officials accompany them, so that the provinces are shaken, and it is not a favorable move......"
Han Shiyuan was afraid that the emperor would be extravagant, and it would not be of much benefit to the people of the country.
In this regard, Lu Qing refuted on the spot, saying that the scale of the emperor's tour can be reduced, and the officials he brings will not need so many, so there will be no extravagance.
The DPRK and Chinese officials had their own opinions, and there was endless debate for a while. And Emperor Chongde, who was sitting high, gradually strengthened his plan in his heart.
Subsequently, Emperor Chongde issued an edict. This edict made Qin Yi, the Duke of Chengguo, break out in a cold sweat.
(Extra: Second Update!) I think the Emperor's Voyage is a very interesting topic. Adjust the status, two changes today. (To be continued......)
