Chengtianfu, originally Huguang Anluzhou, according to the "Shizong Record" record: Jiajing ten years of August Xin Chou, Huguang Guizhou Nanluokou inspection Xu Zhen asked in Anlu Prefecture to establish a Beijing division, under the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Rites thought that the construction of the Beijing Division in the ceremony was groundless, Taizu originated in Haozhou, changed the state to the government, compared to Anlu, the matter is the same, it is advisable to promote the government to the root of Long.

This means that Jiajing wants to build the place where he was born into a Beijing division of the same scale as the north and south Zhili, so that the Ming Dynasty will change from two capitals and thirteen provinces to three capitals and thirteen provinces, and the Ministry of Rites believes that there is no basis for doing so, and even the place where Taizu started was only changed to a state, and Anlu Prefecture should be the same.

Jiajing, how to say it, if you have to use one word to describe it, it is "willful", quite willful.

His willfulness is manifested not only in the handling of personal affairs, but also in the affairs of the state.

For example, for his father's posthumous appointment as emperor, his willfulness was brought into full play.

For this matter, he did not hesitate to turn his face with Yang Tinghe, the first assistant who welcomed him into the unification, which triggered the so-called "Great Rites Discussion" dispute, which made the government and the opposition not do their business, and argued every day for the so-called "Great Rites Discussion", which has been arguing for several years, and in the end, the ministers compromised, and he stopped.

This seems to be his personal matter, but in fact it laid the groundwork for his "willful" rule in the next few decades, and the victory of the "Great Rites Discussion" dispute also made him develop a very bad habit, which is to connive at and even provoke infighting among the ministers!

The way he defeated Yang Tinghe and other "former ministers of Wuzong" was to promote the "imperial party" led by Zhang Xuan and others and let them fight!

This method is naturally a pretty good means for him personally, because once the ministers fight, they will have no time to fight him.

However, it is not a good thing for Da Ming to do this, because everyone has personal desires, and ordinary people have such and such careful thoughts, not to mention those "treacherous and cunning" ministers.

Therefore, on the surface, he consolidated the imperial power by provoking infighting among the ministers, but in fact, he was used by those "treacherous and cunning" ministers as a gun in the hands of others.

Among the ministers of the Jiajing Dynasty, if you talk about "old treacherous and cunning", Yan Song should be the most, so in history, Yan Song has controlled the power of the court for more than 20 years!

He thought that he controlled Yan Song and controlled the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, but in fact, who controlled whom?

He is an emperor, and he can't get out of the military expenses of a million taels, and Yan Song, a courtier, has a family wealth of tens of millions of taels, who controls whom, it is obvious!

Of course, this is all a historical thing, at this time, because of Yang Cong's appearance, Yan Song's road to power does not seem to be very smooth, because he has not killed Xia Yan at this time and seized the position of the first assistant of the cabinet.

The reason why he hasn't made a move yet is mainly because he is afraid of Yang Cong, because he is afraid that he will clean up Xia Yan and he can't kill Yang Cong alone, or in other words, he is afraid that after Xia Yan is cleaned up, Jiajing will support Yang Cong to fight him.

This kind of thing is very possible, because Jiajing likes to provoke infighting among his ministers because of this problem, and Yang Cong's performance at this time also makes Jiajing quite appreciative, and even Jiajing obviously shows the intention of making Yang Cong come back.

For example, this time when he went out to visit Chengtianfu, Jiajing appointed Yang Cong to accompany him, and the other important ministers of the imperial court could only stand stupidly on both sides!

At this moment, on the southbound fire dragon car, Jiajing was holding a telescope in his hand, looking out of the window, and from time to time he was talking to Yang Cong, who was accompanying him, while Xia Yan, Yan Song, Zhang Bangqi and other important ministers of the court were lined up on both sides, with different expressions on their faces.

Xia Yan's face was mainly surprised, he really didn't expect that this iron pimple could still run on the road.

As for whether Yang Cong will come back, he didn't think too much about it, because at this time, the cabinet and the Ministry of Officials are under the control of his "Xia Yan Party", even if Yang Cong comes back, what can Yang Cong do, last time, Yang Cong was not disgraced by him and Yan Song, and he retired gloomily, and if he did it again, he believed that the result would be the same.

Yan Song couldn't see any expression on his face, but there was a hint of gloom in his eyes.

Yang Cong, this kid, is really powerful, even if he is not above the court, he can win Jiajing's favor in this way, if he is allowed to make a comeback, it will be a big trouble.

Zhang Bangqi and the others' faces were similar to Xia Yan's, mainly surprised, surprised by the speed of the fire dragon car, and even more surprised by Yang Cong's ability, how did people come up with this thing?

Yang Cong was talking to Jiajing on the surface, but in fact, his eyes were secretly looking at Xia Yan and Yan Song, why haven't these two guys fought yet, it's really strange.

He has been forbearance for a long time, it has been a few years, he has never asked about the government, and he knows all day long that he is "tossing" in the School of Physics, isn't it enough to do this?

He couldn't help but sneak a glance at Yan Song again, and there was inevitably a hint of thought in his eyes.

To say that the speed of this fire dragon chariot is really fast, at least, compared to the horse-drawn carriage, which is commonly used at this time, it is simply more than a star and a half faster, compared to the dragon chariot carried by dozens of people, not to mention.

If you take a carriage, it would be good to be able to get out of Shuntian Mansion in one day, and if you take a dragon chariot, it would be great to be able to walk twenty or thirty miles in a day, but only a little more than a day has passed at this time, and Kaifeng Mansion in front is already in sight.

You must know that Kaifeng Mansion is more than a thousand miles away from the capital!

Jiajing heard that the guards had come to report that he had already entered the Kaifeng realm, and he couldn't believe his ears.

They only set off in the morning of the first day, and it was only about midnight the next day, so they arrived at Kaifeng Mansion?

Last time, he went back to Chengtian to worship and rushed from the capital to Kaifeng Mansion for more than a month!

He asked in disbelief: "Qingfeng, is it really Kaifeng Mansion in front?" ”

When Yang Cong heard this, he hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, the front is indeed Kaifeng Mansion, but it is not Kaifeng Mansion, but the Xuanwu Guard Acropolis, because the Yellow River cannot build a bridge, so this Shuncheng Railway is divided into two sections, and when you get to the Xuanwu Guard Acropolis, you have to ask the emperor to get on and off the train, take a dragon boat instead, and cross the Yellow River." ”

Of course Jiajing knew about this trip, he was just surprised by the speed of this dragon car, but he didn't expect that this dragon car could really travel thousands of miles a day!

He was surprised, and suddenly blurted out: "The capital seems to be more than a thousand miles away from Fengyang Mansion, Qingfeng, can you build another railway from the capital to Fengyang, I haven't gone to Fengyang to worship my ancestors." ”

Nima, you are playing with mud when you build a railway, right?

The railway from Shuntianfu to Chengtianfu has tormented Yang Cong miserably, and he still has palpitations at this time, if he hadn't recruited Hu Zongxian, a capable person, within two years, the construction of more than 2,000 miles of railway would be an international joke.

This Jiajing is also yes, just for the convenience of his own travel, he ordered someone to build the railway, and it is thousands of miles at every turn, do you know how much it costs?

Of course, Yang Cong would not refute Jiajing in this kind of matter, money, he has, and moreover, the construction of the railway is not entirely for Jiajing alone.

He thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Since the emperor wants to go to worship his ancestors, there is naturally no problem, but Weichen feels that it would be a pity to just cultivate to Fengyang Mansion, or directly repair to Jinling City of Yingtianfu, what do you think?" ”

When Jiajing heard this, he couldn't help but nod and said, "Okay, I just want to go to Jinling City to have a look." ”
