Wei Zhongxian spread his hands helplessly:

"Your Majesty is not strong enough to drink, so you are drunk."

After Zhu Youxiao said this, he staggered back into his seat, glanced at Wei Zhongxian, and snorted lightly:

"I'm just talking about it casually, Heavenly Xiangrui?"

"The gods in the sky, how can they take care of the living beings in the world, which of the three emperors and five emperors can live forever, even if it is the first emperor, it is not birth, old age, sickness and death."

"Since the beginning of the Imperial Pole, wars have been frequent, and the Tusi of the Southwest has rebelled, which immortal has sent heavenly soldiers to the earth?"

"Not yet, it's not up to Lao Tzu himself to carry a sword into battle and settle the chaos..."

Zhu Youxiao's nature is different from that in history, he is too self-serving, just because he is in the temple, for a long time, he has to restrain his edge.

At this time, with the help of alcohol, he spoke from the bottom of his heart.

When everyone heard the rumors, it was also the emperor's drunken nonsense, Gu Yi laughed, and began to toast again, after three rounds of drinking, the Maoqin Hall was feeling hearty, and suddenly heard the noise in the east.

Several eunuchs rushed to the front of the palace in a hurry and reported in a scream:

"Your Majesty, it's terrible, the three major halls are gone!"

When the words landed, the Maoqin Palace, which was still laughing and laughing, fell silent in an instant, and everyone's minds were chaotic, and only then did they remember the fire in the three major halls during the Wanli period.

Han Yi got up quickly, walked quickly to the outside of the hall, looked at the palace in the east, and saw that the sky was blood-red and the fire was blazing.

Before he could speak, Zhu Youxiao staggered to his feet and asked:

"But... Are there any casualties? ”

The little eunuch was frightened, and Nuo Nuo said:

"Back to Your Majesty, the three palace guards were crushed to death, and the rest have taken refuge elsewhere, but... After this experience, the three major halls are afraid that they will be completely destroyed. ”

"If it's destroyed, build it again!"

Zhu Youxiao sneered, raised his head and drank another glass of wine, and waved his dragon sleeves in a chic manner, in the eyes of everyone, just like Emperor Zhengde a hundred years ago.

He pointed to the sky-high fire in the distance and laughed loudly:

"Okay, what a fire!"

"Still not going back?"

Zhu Youxiao was furious, and the little eunuch was bald and self-supporting, and only then retreated with Wei Zhongxian's instructions.

Immediately, at the insistence of the emperor, the feast in the Maoqin Palace rose again, but at this moment, all the civil and military people were drunkards, and they didn't have a little bit of thought left.

Not long after, another little eunuch hurriedly came:

"Your Majesty, the fire in the three major halls is very strong, and the wind is also evil, blowing the flames to the East Palace, and even the Ciqing Palace has broken a few rooms."

Han Yi, the first assistant of the cabinet, sat quietly in the seat of the head of the civil officials, teasing the emperor's demeanor with cold eyes, trying to find the embarrassment in it.

After the little eunuch finished speaking, Zhu Youxiao didn't move, leaned less, and there was a faint snoring.

Everyone looked at each other, a fire broke out in the palace, and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty fell asleep heartlessly...

"Lord, Lord..."

Wei Zhongxian called softly.

Han Yi sat quietly in his seat, he didn't have Ye Xianggao's ability to draw inferences, but he looked down on this emperor even more in his heart.

Previously, although Zhu Youxiao was cynical or dissolute, it could only be said that he was a rebellious teenager who believed in me.

But now, Ye Xiang said that he would kill the whole Gao clan, and on a whim, he ordered the closure of Donglin Academy across the country and the arrest of countless students.

Han Yi clearly saw that this Emperor of the Apocalypse was becoming the ridiculous son of Wuzong step by step.

Thinking of this, he sneered in his heart.

It seems that Ye Xianggao really thought too highly of this emperor before, where did he have any imperial power, but he was just a bad and idle layman.

Accompanied by the music, a light rain fell outside the Maoqin Palace.

The corridor between the palace gates was washed by the new rain, and the water flowing with black debris poured into the underground ditches of the Forbidden City, and several groups of Praetorian soldiers carried small buckets to and fro, throwing out the embers of the fire.

After the night banquet of the Maoqin Palace was completed, the drunken Zhu walked from the school to the gate of Kunning Palace, and the old eunuch of the direct hall trembled and approached, and said:

"The slave and maid were derelict in their duties, and the holy driver was shocked, and the fire was extinguished, and only a few abandoned houses were damaged."

At this time, Zhu Youxiao was already unconscious, and he couldn't say a few words.

Wei Zhongxian's eyes rolled, he held the emperor with his hand, motioned for the old man to come over with his ear, and said in a low voice:

"The East Palace is the former residence of the first emperor, how can it be covered with dust, you must take care of it, everything is perfect, and don't make the emperor disobey the way of loyalty and filial piety."

The old eunuch shook his head and hurriedly agreed.

When the people in the palace retreated, Wei Zhongxian sent the emperor to the gate of Kunning Palace, and was about to leave, but he didn't know whether Zhu Youxiao intended or not, and muttered:

"Old thing, I will be aware of it."

Wei Zhongxian just turned around, and his body trembled when he heard this, but he didn't look back, and Quan Dang didn't hear it.

He shook his hand and motioned to the female official Xu to close the palace door and leave.

......

Due to the burning of the palace, Zhu Youxiao issued an edict the next day, and the inspection of the court, which was originally scheduled to resume in the second year of the Apocalypse, was delayed for another year.

The ministers of various ministries sighed when they heard the news, and they all said that it would be difficult for this apocalypse to have an early dynasty...

For Zhu Youxiao, whether he is in the early dynasty or not, does not affect the control of the entire empire at all, and the rest of the time is just right to do what he likes.

The three major halls have been burned down once in more than 20 years of Wanli, and have been abandoned for more than 20 years, with ruins and broken walls and overgrown weeds.

The imperial court has always had discussions about rebuilding the three major halls, but because of the huge cost and the opposition of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces, it has come to an end.

This time it burned again, it completely collapsed and could no longer be used, but it really couldn't be repaired.

On this day, the cabinet signed the room, and the ministers of various ministries and institutes were discussing the rebuilding of the three major halls here, and Zhu Youxiao was also present.

Just said a few words, but saw Wei Zhongxian come uninvited.

Except for the eunuchs, the rest of the people didn't have a good impression of Wei Zhongxian, so naturally they wouldn't give a good face, and Zhao Nanxing snorted coldly, don't look over.

"The old slave has seen the emperor—" As soon as Wei Zhongxianfu entered the door, he bowed to the first emperor and bowed greatly.

Zhu Youxiao laughed and said:

"In ten days, it will be the New Year's Day in the second year of the Apocalypse, and the envoys of the vassal countries will enter Beijing, and a big court ceremony will be held as usual.

Cabinet minister Gu Bingqian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty Shengming, the factory minister has the ability and means, this great court ceremony will definitely make the vassal countries more subservient to my Ming Dynasty." ”

"The slave and maid obey the order, this time the three major halls and the East Palace go to the water, in front of the vassal state, the slave and maid can't let the Ming Dynasty lose face."

Wei Zhongxian was happy in his heart and pretended to be humble.

"Okay, with the words of the factory minister, I will be relieved." After Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, he quietly looked at Wei Zhongxian, as if he was waiting for something.

The latter also cooperated, squinted his eyes, and pretended to be mysterious:

"Master, slave and maid still have a sentence, I don't know if to say it or not?"

"Speak! What should not be said, could it be that the factory ministers also learn from those Donglin Party members, and they have nothing to do with the script, so they are making a mistake? ”

The two of them sang and harmonized, which made Han Yi and the others angry, but they didn't dare to say anything, and for a while, the atmosphere was suddenly a little embarrassing.

"Non-yes, non--"

"In this life, the old slave doesn't know anything, he only knows how to share the emperor's worries and serve the emperor well. The recital is so profound, the old slave can't play it. ”

Wei Zhongxian shook his head and said:

"The old slave didn't want to add to the chaos, but the Zhengdan Festival was coming, and the three major halls of the Middle Pole, Jianji and Huangji of the Outer Dynasty suffered two fires, and it has been almost 30 years and has not been rebuilt."

"That scene, no matter who looks at it, they feel that the Ming Dynasty seems to be about to set, the twilight is gloomy, and the people's hearts are scattered."

"This is still a slave and maid, the Quartet Domain, local officials, scholars and people who have entered Beijing, how will they feel when they see it?"

"The old slave feels that the three major halls are the façade of the Ming Dynasty, and they are so bad that they can no longer be used, and they can no longer be dragged out without repair."

"What's more, if you want to restore the court, the three major halls must be repaired, what do you think?"
