……

Two days later, it was the third day of the third lunar month.

It is suitable for sacrifice, travel, and construction; Do not migrate, enter the house, or work as a stove.

Since ancient times, there has been a folk saying that "on the second day of February, the dragon raises its head; According to legend, this day is the birthday of the Yellow Emperor, and Taoism also regards this day as the birthday of the Emperor Zhenwu.

All in all, it is a good day, commonly known as the "Shangsi Festival", which is a festival for drinking and feasting by the water and visiting the suburbs in spring.

A few days ago, in the court, after many arguments and deliberations, the officials also set the day when Emperor Deqing began his southern tour on this day.

For the results of the deliberations of the officials, Emperor Deqing was quite in favor, but according to Zhao Junchen's conjecture, the reason why Emperor Deqing agreed with this day was not because this day was an auspicious day, but because of the idea of "fireworks in Yangzhou in March".

In fact, in order to speed up the road and reach the south of the Yangtze River before the end of March, Emperor Deqing also deliberately abandoned his horse and took a boat along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, passing through Tongzhou, Tianjin Wei, Cangzhou, Taierzhuang and other places, all the way to Xuzhou, Jiangsu, and then through Guò Huaiyin, Huai'an and other places, straight to Yangzhou!

Of course, according to Emperor Deqing. The reason why he abandoned his horse and boat on this southern tour was to save people's resources. Avoid disturbing the place, and inspect the plumbers along the way. Such a bright and selfless statement has deceived many people, and also added some legitimacy to Emperor Deqing's southern tour.

However, Zhao Junchen naturally did not believe Emperor Deqing's words, otherwise he would not be able to explain why Emperor Deqing suddenly reduced the speed of his trip after arriving in Yangzhou. And also in Hangzhou, Nanjing, Suzhou, Wuxi, Jiaxing and other places, each staying for five to seven days.

Obviously, the main purpose of Emperor Deqing's southern tour this time was just to enjoy the mountains and rivers.

However, including Zhao Junchen, all the ministers of the court and the central government who saw through Emperor Deqing's mind would not debunk this point, but just chanted "Your Majesty Xià Shengming" with other officials, as if Emperor Deqing was really a Shengming Emperor.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Follow the rules and procedures. Before the official southern tour, Emperor Deqing still needed to pay tribute to heaven and earth and ancestors, so early in the morning, Emperor Deqing took the civil and military officials to the Temple of Heaven.

this day. The sky is also beautiful, the sky is clear, the sun is shining, and the sky is cloudless!

Seeing this, Emperor Deqing was also quite excited. When worshipping the heavens, there was no perfunctory neglect. A thousand-word memorial text, Emperor Deqing read melodious, loud voice, and clear words.

When the festival is over. In front of the hundred officials, Emperor Deqing announced two lists, one was the list of officials who accompanied the southern tour, and the other was the list of officials who stayed in the center of the capital and assisted the government.

These two lists are the result of discussions between Emperor Deqing and his ministers, which seem simple, but in fact they are very knowledgeable! In recent days, the various factions in the DPRK and China have gone to great lengths to get these two lists, and they have been fighting openly and secretly for a long time.

After all, on the occasion of Emperor Deqing's southern tour, in addition to the auxiliary minister Huang Yourong, several other powerful ministers in the court were going to accompany him to the south, during this period, whether the crown prince Zhu Heyu and the elder Huang Yourong would take the opportunity to suppress the forces of other factions was something that no one could say! If the crown prince Zhu Heyu and the elder Huang Yourong really did this, then Zhou Shangjing, Zhao Junchen and others were far away in the south of the Yangtze River, but they were beyond the reach of the whip, and they would inevitably suffer dark losses.

Therefore, in order to maintain their influence in the center of the capital, and also to reduce the influence of their opponents in the center of the capital, the major factions in the DPRK and China have spent a lot of thought, and between the open and secret battles, each has its own gains and losses.

……

According to the list announced by Emperor Deqing, Zhu Heyu became the prince of the state and Huang Yourong became the auxiliary minister.

And the new cabinet elder Cheng Yuandao, the crown prince and young master Guo Tang, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, Lu Chunxiao and other princeling officials, also stayed in the capital to assist the prince Zhu and Yu to supervise the country - it can be said that during the southern tour of Emperor Deqing, in the center of the capital, the power of the prince Zhu and Yu will be the most complete - but under the secret hands and feet of Zhao Junchen, Bao Wenjie, the most experienced servant of the Ministry of Rites in the princelings, and Zhao Shancai, the most intelligent and clever new science list, are all going to accompany the southern tour!

In this way, the crown prince Zhu Heyu's next plan to reform the commercial tax of the Ming Dynasty is naturally a big risk!

However, although Zhao Junchen calculated the crown prince Zhu and Yu, he himself was also calculated!

According to Zhao Junchen's original plan, the second person of the Zhao Party, Zuo Lanshan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, will stay in the capital to preside over the overall situation during the southern tour, and replace Zhao Junchen to lead the Zhao Party. However, after several encounters, Zuo Lanshan finally joined the list of escorts for the Southern Tour!

In this way, although Zhao Junchen also left all the Zhao Party cadres in the capital, such as Zhan Shanchang, the head of the household department, Si Tonghuan, the general political envoy, Chen Dongxiang, the head of the Ministry of Works, Liu Chang'an, the head of the Ministry of Justice, and Qin Huaiyuan, the head of the Criminal Department, all of them in the capital, so as to maintain their influence in the center, but after all, the official rank of these people is a little lower, and they cannot preside over the overall situation like Zuo Lanshan, so Zhao Junchen's heart is also a little uneasy, and he has specially prepared a lot of back-ups for this.

However, although Zhao Junchen did not leave Zuolanshan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, in the center of the capital because of the secret work of several other ministers, under the deliberate obstruction of Zhao Junchen, several other ministers also failed to achieve their goals.

Among them, under the vigorous efforts of the first assistant Zhou Shangjing, Song Qiwen, the secretary of the ministry, and Li He, the scholar of the Baohe Palace, of course, stayed in the center of the capital and presided over the situation in place of Zhou Shangjing, but Zhou Shangjing planted the two nails in Zhao Junchen's territory - Ye Shanghong, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and Ma Sen, the waiter of the household department, but under the operation of Zhao Junchen, they all entered the list of accompanying the southern tour, so that during the southern tour, the two major yamen of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household will not be infiltrated by Zhou Shangjing.

In addition, Huang Yourong and Shen Changmao, the two elders, are now allied as one, under the same advance and retreat, they were originally the most dominant, during the southern tour, Huang Yourong was the auxiliary government in the capital, and Shen Changmao accompanied the southern tour, and the two of them were under the division of labor, not only to maintain their influence in the center of the capital, but also to maintain their influence around Emperor Deqing.

However, it is precisely because they have such an advantage that Zhao Junchen and Zhou Shangjing have joined forces very tacitly, and the core officials under the two of them, such as Young Master Zhang Cheng, Ministry of Rites Shangshu Lin Wei, University Scholar Huo Zhengyuan and other officials, have all been arranged into the list of accompanying the southern tour, so although Huang Yourong has become an auxiliary minister, because of the lack of support from his henchmen, he can't cover the sky in the center of the capital!

In the temple, that's it, when you are calculating others, others are also calculating you, and between the gains and losses, you always need to make a choice, and no one can get all the benefits.

It can be said that the two lists announced by Emperor Deqing were the result of the struggle and compromise between the major factions in the DPRK and China.

But now, the dust has settled, and all factions have accepted the final result, so when Emperor Deqing announced these two lists, no one among the hundred officials raised any objections, but just acquiesced to this outcome.

Emperor Deqing also understood this, so after announcing the two lists, he did not delay, but announced again that the southern tour had officially begun!

Then, under the escort of the officials in Beijing, Emperor Deqing led a group of accompanying officials to the mouth of the Tonghui River, and took a boat here to the first stop of the southern tour - Tongzhou!
