Chapter 42: The Emperor's Eldest Grandson

Wang Jin's home is in the depths of a splendid palace.

Here, with the orchid wood as the tease, the apricot as the beams and pillars, the gold shop jade household, the carved sill jade, the heavy Xuan sill, the green lock Dan Zhang, can be said to be a collection of the world's treasures in one, magnificent, even if it is the Afang Palace of Qin Shi Huang, in front of such a palace to be ashamed.

"Your Highness...... Your Royal Highness ......" A yellow-clothed waiter came with a smile holding some melons and fruits, and said with a smile: "Taste it, this is just picked from Fuli Palace, but it's fresh......"

Fuli Palace is the best botanical garden and royal fruit and vegetable supply base today.

It was founded in the sixth year of the Yuan Dynasty, when the Wang Division conquered South Vietnam and unified the sea.

Shaofu planted lychees, longans, bananas and other South Vietnamese specialties in the Fuli Palace.

Pity...... These tropical crops from South Vietnam are not adapted to the water and soil in Guanzhong, and they cannot be cultivated at all......

On the contrary, other citrus, calamus and other plants grow well.

Subsequently, the Marquis of Bowang hollowed out the Western Regions, and planted grapes, sesame, cotton and other things in the Fuli Palace.

Up to now, Fuli Palace has become the most diverse, largest and most technologically powerful plant cultivation base on the earth.

It's just that what is produced here is only for the court.

Wang Jinping's favorite food is the vegetables and fruits in Fuli Palace.

But now, he didn't have any appetite, waved his hand, and asked, "Where are the teachers now?" ”

"Today, the crown prince was edicted to follow the construction of the Zhang Palace, and His Royal Highness's teachers followed...... I was very happy to hear that His Majesty had obtained a new book, so I invited the prince and all living beings to take a look......" The yellow-clothed chamberlain replied with a smile.

In this palace, who doesn't know that this highness is the most filial, and at the same time benevolent, and the most respectful of teachers.

His Royal Highness's three teachers have climbed from a cloth cloth to the position of a person who gives advice in just five years.

For those who give advice, although the rank ratio is low, it is only 300 stones.

However, the power is quite heavy, and he has the power to write books, and he can also discuss state affairs and participate in political affairs.

Wang Jin's mind is now in chaos.

Hearing this, he just nodded, and then said, "Prepare, I'll also go to Jianzhang Palace......"

He was going to ask his teachers in person.

Why hide it from yourself in militaristic matters?

Why don't they tell themselves about those things from decades ago?

And then there's ......

Wang Jin raised his head, his eyes suddenly becoming firm.

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open a peaceful ...... for all generations" Wang Jin muttered to himself: "This is the ambition that loneliness should have!" ”

He clenched his fists, and his face became excited.

Such an ambition is much grander than the great cause that his teachers once told him.

"Nuo ......" The chamberlain hurriedly took the order.

…………………………

Jianzhang Palace.

The highest achievement and crystallization of the architectural art of the Han Empire.

All those who come here are amazed by the grandeur and magnificence of this magnificent palace.

Back then, Xiao He was ordered to build the two palaces of Weiyang and Changle.

When Gaozu returned, he was furious and said: The world has been working hard for several years, and the success or failure is unknown.

Xiao He took off his hat and apologized, and said: "The world is undecided, so it can be because of the palace, and the Son of Heaven takes the four seas as his home, not magnificent, not powerful, and not so much for future generations!" ”

Only then did Gaozu turn his anger into joy, and the happy Liyang moved to Weiyang Palace.

In the following decades, it went through two generations of Emperor Hui and Wenjing.

The emperor of the Han family has always followed the ancestral system, does not repair the palace, and does not add a garden.

At the beginning, Emperor Taizong Xiaowen wanted to build a pavilion for himself to enjoy the shade, but he asked the Shaofu craftsman to ask, it actually cost 100 gold?

So Taizong sighed: "100 gold, the property of the ten families of the Chinese, I serve the palace of the first emperor, I am often ashamed, why is it Taiwan?" ”

As a result, the pavilion was not repaired.

During the reign of the first emperor, although it was not as frugal as Taizong, after all, Chang'an City was not added, and even the repair of Weiyang Palace was often delayed again and again.

Wenjing is two sons of heaven, saving on himself.

But to the world, especially the people, he is very generous.

The land tax was repeatedly reduced, and the forced labor was exempted, and the age of the first master was directly postponed from 20 years old to 23 years old.

However......

Now, at the beginning, the Weiyang Palace and Changle Palace, which made Gaozu angry, were as simple as the mansions of the rich people in the countryside in front of the Jianzhang Palace.

Standing downstairs in the north of Jianzhang Palace, Wang Jin stared at the magnificent phoenix que and sighed in his heart.

It's just that this Jianzhang Palace Beique, guess how much it cost? How many people have been requisitioned?

The answer was 50,000 gold in gold, 30,000 in money, and 8,000 people were recruited, and it took three years to complete the project.

It is equivalent to the pavilion that Emperor Taizong wanted to repair......

But what's the solution?

His grandfather loved such things, and he loved such beautiful palaces.

Back then, when Ji Huang was alive, he could still restrain himself and listen to Ji Huang's advice.

In the fifth year of Yuan Ding, after Ji Di died of illness in Huaiyang, he herded sheep.

In the first year of Taichu, the construction of Jianzhang Palace began.

Then the Mingguang Palace was built.

It is useless for anyone to persuade and no one dares to persuade them.

Even if it's yourself, and your own father......

The city gate of the Phoenix Gate slowly opened, and on the bronze gate as high as 25 zhang, two bronze finches opened and closed their wings vividly, making a crisp sound.

Inside the palace gate, gusts of wind chimes came into my ears.

When people listened to it, they thought they had come to a fairyland.

But Wang Jin didn't like it here, and if it wasn't necessary, he would never come.

Because, as long as he heard the wind chimes and saw the bronze finch on the phoenix, he couldn't help but think that just the phoenix and the wind chimes hanging in the palace were enough to make the people of the world feast.

It is equivalent to the one-year-old tax of the entire Guanzhong.

It is equal to one-third of the military expenditure of Li Guangli, the general of the Second Division.

"If I take power the next day, I will definitely issue an edict to my descendants: never add a palace again......" Wang Jin secretly swore in his heart.

Thinking so, he rode into this majestic palace in a carriage.

On both sides of the palace, one by one Wei stood with halberds and greeted one after another.

"His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson has entered the Hajj!" Above the tower, there were people who praised loudly.

Entering the Phoenix Gate is just entering the periphery of the palace of Jianzhang Palace.

This huge palace group, thirty miles around, there are twenty-six palaces alone, known as thousands of doors.

When he entered the palace gate, he was immediately greeted by a waiter.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty and your family are all in the Yutang ...... at this moment" A nobleman stepped forward to salute and said with a smile: "Your Highness, but you are going to go now?" ”

"Hmm......" Wang Jin nodded and waved his hand: "There is Lao Ma Lingjun to lead the way......"

"Don't dare, it's a ......blessing for the minister to die for His Highness," the nobleman said with a smile.

Wang Jin didn't dare to despise and neglect this person.

Because this person is one of today's close confidants.

Although Ma Tong has a shallow foundation, he has a good friend, named Han Shuo.

Han said that he had an elder brother named Han Yan......
