Chapter 237: The Inner Market Will Stop
Wang Chaofu Nuonuo replied: "What Your Majesty said is true. β
Feeling the emperor's anger, he obediently put down the note given by the household department to Wang Zhenyun in the matter, picked up another one, cleared his throat, and read:
"The Ministry of Rites: The three major halls have been rebuilt so far, costing millions of silver, in vain. According to the ancestral system, the site of the Holy Mausoleum should have been selected and started a long time ago, and the ministers handed over the selection of the place several times, but the heavens ignored it......
Zhu Youxiao heard it, and the Ministry of Rites was still dissatisfied with Wei Zhongxian and the eunuchs taking away the cake of rebuilding the three major halls, and wanted to divide the benefits.
By the way, take the credit of the emperor's mausoleum to yourself as soon as possible.
You must know that starting to build this kind of thing, whether it is the three major halls presided over by Wei Zhongxian now, or his own mausoleum in the future, it is not something that can be promoted for a while.
Before the construction began, it was necessary to recruit a large number of laborers, and it was also necessary to wait for the brick and brick masons from all over the country to come to Beijing, and it was also a tug-of-war when choosing a site.
Even if everything is about to start construction, when it is built, it is inevitable that there will be all kinds of forks, and the court will need money and people everywhere.
When the state engages in big projects, the people who earn the least money are always the laborers who work at the bottom, and for the officials who preside, this kind of money and meritorious service is the best to get their hands on compared to other things.
"I am twenty years old, I am in the prime of life, and my successor is less than fifty years, so why do you need a moment of mausoleum service?"
"What's more, the three major halls are the faΓ§ade of this dynasty, which is related to the national body, and has been repaired for a year. What I mean is that I have to continue to cultivate. β
Speaking of this, Zhu Youxiao glanced down lightly and said softly: "The Ministry of Rites has always been unwell, so this matter is over, and there is no need to mention it again." β
The Emperor of the Apocalypse said a lot of things today, and now that it has been decided, it is difficult for the ministers to say anything more. At this time, Zhu Youxiao looked at Wang Chaofu and signaled that he could only choose one last one to read.
The latter hesitated for a moment and picked up this chapter by Han Yi, the first assistant of the cabinet:
"University scholar Han Yijuan:
Since Emperor Shenzong dropped out of the East Palace in 33 years, the palace has gradually withered, and the eldest son of the emperor is already one year old, and the crown prince is heavy, since he ordered the palace supervisor to clean the corridors of the East Palace, remove the old and replace the new. to be maintained.
The inner city is noisy, and the eldest son of the emperor has not spoken at the age of one, I am afraid that the first prince will be angry, and the inner city should be dismissed, so as to restore the purity of the inner city and maintain the royal system.
As for the special cultivation of the canon, the benefits of the inner market will be withdrawn, and Rong Chen will explain it in detail......"
After going back and forth for so long, it was finally time to get down to business, Zhu Youxiao held his head and did not interrupt, but sat there quietly and listened to Wang Chaofu's recitation.
Seeing that the emperor was so sad about this matter, Yu's ministers were very surprised, and Han Yi frowned even more, as if he was thoughtful.
"Mr. Han said, how old is my eldest son?"
"Back to the emperor, after the winter moon of the second year of the Apocalypse, it will be more than six months a year."
Zhu Youxiao was stunned, and suddenly lowered his head and said with a light smile: "These days are getting more and more unbearable, my eldest son is almost a year and a half years old..."
When it comes to the inner market, Zhu Youxiao feels incredible.
At this time, people are so reluctant to set up a market in the big house, which shows how heavy the conservative concept is, thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao raised his mouth deeply, put his head into the soft pillow, and said:
"The prince of the Ming Dynasty, when he is six or seven years old, except for the third, sixth, and ninth dynasties, he has to stay in the Wenhua Hall to lecture and read the rest of the days, and he has not had a day to spare."
"This kind of education is too boring and harsh. In order to avoid backfire, I thought of setting up an inner market, so that the princes could get a glimpse of the folk market without leaving the palace. β
"Tell me, am I wrong?"
Hearing this, the ministers "coaxed" to discuss, and after a while, it was Shoufu Han Yi who came out and said earnestly:
"Your Majesty was fun when he was young, the first emperor went early, and he didn't have time to receive the royal canon for several years, and the eldest son of the emperor of this dynasty is the future crown prince, the prince of the country."
"Your Majesty, don't play with it..."
Hearing this, Zhu Youxiao glanced at him lazily and chuckled:
"What does Mr. Han mean by this is that I have not received enough royal education and cannot control the world?"
"How dare the minister blame Your Majesty, the minister just hopes that the eldest son of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the future prince of the country can be virtuous and promising, and create a prosperous world."
"Well, that's a good idea." Zhu Youxiao was not angry, he just asked casually, raised his hand to signal him to get up, and said:
"But there is one thing you said wrong, if my descendants become emperors in the future, they can be virtuous, but they can't be virtuous, and you won't understand if you talk too much..."
As he spoke, Zhu Youxiao suddenly realized that he had said more, smiled softly, and sighed: "In this case, I will allow Zhuqing to play." β
"The celebrant will draw up the order!"
"The direct hall supervisor is responsible for the corridor of Ciqing Palace, the sprinkling and sweeping of each hall, removing the old and replacing the new, and after three days, the Dauchi market will be removed."
"Your Majesty Shengming ββ!"
Han Yi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and led his ministers to kneel down and shout.
Out of the main hall, the ministers were not very happy, Han Yi and Liu Zongzhou glanced at each other, and went down the stairs side by side, the latter walked a few steps, and suddenly said:
"I didn't expect it to be so smooth today."
Han Yi didn't know what to say, but he sighed and returned: "This time there was a big move, and the six ministers spoke together, making such a big move, but fortunately, it was not in vain. β
"Fortunately, fortunately!"
Liu Zongzhou didn't hear the meaning of Han Yi's words, laughed a few times, took the lead down the stone steps, arched his hand towards the first assistant behind him, and left by himself.
......
"Is the inner city really withdrawn?"
On the way, a palace lady couldn't believe it,
"This is still false, the six departments of the cabinet elder advised together, and Your Majesty can't stop it!"
"What's this called! Originally, the inner market was good, and what was lacking could be replaced, but now it is good, and the courtiers have been advised to withdraw..."
Several palace people walked together, commenting on the palace events that happened today.
"The inner market is very good, why do you want to withdraw?"
"To say that it is detrimental to the majesty of the royal family... Moreover, the land in the inner city is outside the Ciqing Palace, and the emperor's eldest son is one year old, and sooner or later he will move to the East Palace to study! β
"It's not that you don't know those ministers, it's not a day or two to go against His Majesty today, but the inner market is about to stop, and it will be set up next time, maybe when."
A palace lady walked faster and faster, and said:
"I think that when the market opens on the last three days, they all find idle utensils from the house, go to the inner market together, and exchange more charcoal with those husbands to keep it."
Listening to her words, Yu's palace ladies all quickened their pace.
"Yes, there are still three days left in the inner market, and if you want to change charcoal to burn in the future, it will no longer be so easy, the days are getting colder, and it is better to reserve more."
"Let's get through this year's winter moon first..."
Accompanied by the silver snow in the Forbidden City, the palace people walked together, fluttered their little feet, hurriedly returned to their respective huts, used bamboo baskets to carry idle utensils that they could not use on weekdays, and called some eunuchs who were also going to the inner city, and carried them to Ciqing Palace for them.
There, the inner city of the Apocalypse Dynasty will be deposed in the last three days.
