Chapter 924: The Son of Heaven Has a Dream

The news of Zheng Mo's alliance soon spread throughout the land of Dazheng, and the oath of the alliance was announced to the world, "In June of the first year of Changqing, Dazheng Tianzi told the subjects of the world that Zheng and Mo became brothers, and they obeyed the alliance in good faith and devoutly. The cities of the two dynasties are still guarded, and the moats are finished, and everything is as usual......"

No matter how flowery the article of the university scholar Du Xueqi is, it cannot hide the fact that "with the suitability of the climate, the expenses of the military and the brigade will be helped, and one million taels of property will be given every year", Liao Liao's several admonitions were drowned out in the cheers of "Long live the Shengming", and the courtiers who returned to their own study after the cheers could not help but muttered in their hearts, obviously having the upper hand but spending money to buy peace, if it sounds good, it is wealthy, and if it is not good, it is a loser.

Ordinary people can't understand the words on the oath, they only know that there is no war in the north, and the old emperor led his troops to fight two years ago, but many people died, and he could finally eat two days of peace. However, I heard that after the new emperor ascended the throne, he built a palace and chose beautiful women to enter the palace, even if he didn't fight, he was afraid that it would be difficult to live in peace. The old emperor likes to fight but is good to the common people, and the policy of "combining taxes into one" has reduced the tax revenue of each family by a few cents, and he can eat a few more days to eat, and his son will be the son of heaven, I hope that life can continue to be good.

Retreating from the Zichen Palace, Zhang Jin carefully helped Shi Chongwei to climb on his shoulder, and reminded seemingly unintentionally: "Long live, the poor concubine Niangniang sent someone to deliver the letter, Princess Qingyang has learned a new song and wants to sing it to Banzai." "Princess Qingyang is the daughter of Lianxi, after Shi Chongwei ascended the throne, she was promoted from the county lord to the princess, Qingyang is the eldest princess, and she is very favored in the palace.

In the harem, Lianxi is the most favored, Jianwu gave birth to the second emperor Shi Shouqi in the eighth year, and Shi Chongwei ascended the throne after Lianxi was named a concubine. Empress Xiong routinely advised the Son of Heaven to learn from Emperor Su to be diligent and thrifty, and Shi Chongwei respected her like a guest, and spent half of the month there in Lixi. However, since Shi Shouqi was born, Lianxi began to fight for various benefits for his son, and Shi Chongwei can be regarded as understanding the mood of his father when he treated his three brothers. There will definitely be more princes in the palace in the future, Shi Chongwei doesn't want to make a prince now, life should be happy immediately, and those headaches will wait for ten years.

"Get up and enjoy the garden", hearing the order of the Son of Heaven, Zhang Jin screamed. As a Bingli eunuch, Zhang Jin is the roundworm in Shi Chongwei's belly, and he understands his mind clearly, a few days ago, the draft made Lord Cheng carefully select a group of show girls to enter the palace, these show girls are offered by Jiangzhou and Huangzhou, and the Son of Heaven wants to go to Leyouyuan to listen to songs and dances.

Zhang Jin secretly despised in his heart, those officials who were full of benevolence and morality had no discipline at all, the Son of Heaven ordered the states to let the draft girls enter the palace before September, Fuzhou, Pingzhou, Bazhou, Duanzhou, these states have sent several batches of show girls into the palace, saying that they will let the Son of Heaven pick it up first, and then send it if they are not satisfied. Zhang Jin was a little red Cheng Mingdao, the draft made this messenger fat, those shameless officials desperately stuffed Cheng with silver, and asked him to send the show girl to Long Live in front of him, but the adult was still on the road, and he was very polite to himself when he was in the East Palace, and every time he sent the show girl into the palace, he did not lose his share of benefits, and the Son of Heaven was on the throne for only half a year, and the benefits he received were more than 50,000 taels, which was more than the accumulation of so many years in the East Palace.

In addition, Huang Xi, the secret guard governor, also gave himself three shops, a silk village, a restaurant and a teahouse, and his godson went to see it and told him that these three shops were all in a good location in Beijing, and they would be at least seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver. This Huang Gonggong is a ruthless character, seeing that the king of Chu lost power, he immediately took refuge in the Son of Heaven, and sent a large amount of silver to the inner treasury by checking corrupt officials, and the king of Chu did not affect him, but sat in the position of the secret guard superintendent. Back then, Gonggong Feng had the grace of knowing him, but this was a Huang Gonggong who started to show no mercy, and all the family property of Gonggong Feng in Beijing was confiscated into the inner treasury, and these three shops said that they borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, and they also confiscated the income of Gonggong Feng's corruption.

Such a ruthless character still has to beware of it, according to Huang Xi's vicious personality, Gonggong Feng is afraid that his life will not be long, and he will lose power one day, this Gonggong Huang will treat himself like Feng Zhong, and the position of the palm print eunuch left by Gonggong Feng must not be allowed to go. Three of the four eunuchs of the Su Emperor Dynasty were replaced, Zhang Jin replaced Liu Weiguo, who returned home to retire, the palace eunuch Lu Mingli did not change, and after Tang Wenzhong's death, the eunuch Gao Suiyi, who served beside the queen mother, took over as the secretary eunuch, and the palm seal eunuch left by Feng Zhong was temporarily held by Zhang Jin, and no new person has been appointed. Huang Xi sent the shop to himself, thinking that he was eyeing the position of the palm print eunuch. Zhang Jin sneered in his heart, he found an opportunity to remind the Son of Heaven that Huang Xi is a vicious dog, let him deal with the civil and military officials in the secret guard.

This time the palace is overhauled, the music garden is the focus of the repair, added several places to watch the song and dance of the song and dance pavilion, the lotus pavilion is built at the water's edge, the breeze blows from the Qingxin Lake with the fragrance of lotus incense, and the sound of silk and bamboo singing and dancing becomes ethereal a few points. Shi Chongwei reclined on the soft rattan couch, his eyes slightly closed, his fingers lightly clasped and patted on the couch, and the table in front of him was full of Huazhou melons and fruits.

The harem was repaired, Qianzhou Thorn Shi Ma Tengfei presented a batch of rattan utensils, this batch of rattan utensils was made very elegantly, the color was elegant, smooth and cool, light and dexterous, Shi Chongwei sent it to Yanshan Villa, the queen mother liked it very much, Shi Chongwei decreed that Qianzhou would be offered rattan as a tribute to the palace in the future.

The warm breeze was cool, Shi Chongwei was drowsy, Zhang Jin instructed Sizhu to sing and dance quietly, don't disturb the rest of the Son of Heaven, last night the Son of Heaven even had three palace maids, and he was a little tired.

When he seemed to be asleep, Shi Chongwei seemed to have come to the Meditation Pavilion, and Liu Weiguo said with a smile on the side of the pavilion: "Prince, long live Lord let you go." Shi Chongwei was a little suspicious, didn't Liu Weiguo go out of the palace, seeing the bright yellow figure in the pavilion, Shi Chongwei quickened his pace in the pavilion, bowed down and said: "Erchen has seen his father." ”

Shi Fangzhen's face was full of anger, and he said: "Wei'er, why did you conclude an alliance with the desert people, and the hard work of me and hundreds of thousands of soldiers was wasted. ”

Shi Chongwei replied with some cringe: "Father, the son does not really want to make peace with the Moren, but the treasury of the court is empty, and he is really unable to support the expenses of the camp in the north of the town. Erchen wants to temporarily calm the flames of war, rest with the people, and wait for the treasury to be full, and then ......"

"Don't be clever and deceive me, you have no money to pay for the army, but you have a lot of money to repair the harem. Don't say that it is the silver of the inner treasury, the Son of Heaven is selfless, and the inner treasury is also the treasury, not to mention that the longevity silver offered by the states is not to tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall, and stuff the silver of the treasury into the inner treasury. Shi Fangzhen rebuked angrily.

In a trance, Shi Chongwei realized that his father was no longer alive, and he was already the Son of Heaven, so he was bold and said: "Father, the harem is in disrepair, and the Shou'an Palace where the queen mother lives is leaking everywhere, how can the sons let the queen mother live in such a place." Father, even if you blame the child, the child will repair the harem. ”

Shi Fangzhen's face turned bright, and he nodded in satisfaction: "Wei'er has this filial piety, I am very pleased. ”

In the dream, Shi Fangzhen had already remembered that his father had passed away, could it be that his father's spirit came to see him in the sky. Shi Chongwei's eyes moistened, and he said: "Father, the son misses you very much, and the mother thinks that you can describe the withered tree, so the son let her go to Yanshan Villa to recuperate." Father, don't worry, after two years the court is stabilized and the treasury has silver, the sons will follow the example of their father to drive north and complete the great cause of their father's unfinished work, so as to comfort their father's spirit in the sky. ”

Shi Fangzhen's face was covered with a layer of veil, he couldn't see whether he was happy or angry, his body was like light smoke being fluttered, Shi Chongwei shouted: "Father, don't go, the child still has a lot to say to you." ”

The light smoke froze, and Shi Fangzhen said with a cold face: "I asked you to treat my brother well before I died, why didn't you listen to me." ”

"My father wronged my son, and in accordance with my father's will, my son named the second brother the king of Chu, and the third brother as the king of Luo.

Shi Fangzhen's face became hideous, and he scolded: "You **** still dare to deceive me, you sent Longwei secret guards to spy on the daily life and behavior of the two younger brothers, and secretly issued an order to Chuzhou and Bingzhou to assassinate the history, so that they can report Chongjie and Chongren's every move in detail every month, what are your intentions." You unfilial son, I will abolish you and let Chongren be the son of heaven. ”

In the dream, Shi Fangzhen's figure rushed towards Shi Chongwei like a demon, Shi Chongwei exclaimed, "Father doesn't want it", dancing and struggling. Zhang Jin's soft voice came from his ears: "Long live, wake up." Hooray, you've had nightmares. ”

Shi Chongwei sat up in shock, and the soft singing voice of the silk bamboo in his ears was charming, it turned out to be a dream. After taking a long breath, I realized that my clothes were already soaked with sweat and were very uncomfortable sticking to my body. Zhang Jin hurriedly called the palace maid to wait for the Son of Heaven to change out of his sweat clothes, and Shi Chongwei sat on the couch and his heart was still "pounding". I have the intention to call people to come to realize my dream, but I can't tell anyone about the situation in the dream, it seems that my father blames himself and wants to send someone to the imperial tomb to worship.

"Zhang Jin", Shi Chongwei said. Zhang Jin hurriedly bowed down to obey the order, seeing that the color of the Son of Heaven changed, he must have had some nightmare, and when he heard the Son of Heaven ordering him to go to the imperial tomb to worship, Zhang Jin knew in his heart that the Son of Heaven was dreaming of the first emperor.

Zhang Jin wiped his tears and said: "Long live the benevolence and filial piety of the first emperor, the spirit of the first emperor in the sky must be very gratified, and the subjects of the world will be moved by your benevolence, righteousness and filial piety." The slave reads less, but the slave also listened to a few words when he was studying, like the Son of Heaven who governs the country with filial piety is only comparable to Emperor Qi Wen and Emperor Wei Ming. ”

Emperor Wen of Qi and Emperor Ming of Wei are both famous Ming monarchs in the history books, and the dynasty they live in is a prosperous era, Zhang Jin's words scratched Shi Chongwei's itch, Shi Chongwei laughed heartily, and the unhappiness in the dream drifted away with the wind.

The singing voice is rising again, and the faction is leveling.
