Chapter 477 The heart shows the sun and the moon to win Chang'an
Yuan Zhao didn't touch the money he won, although it was a huge fortune, but in his eyes, these things outside his body were as light as a feather. Compared with the innovative principles and grand goals of the business world, which he expounded, it is simply not worth mentioning.
He doesn't care, but someone does! In the following time, watching the truckloads of gold, silver, and jewelry that almost bankrupted their poor family being pulled away from the mansion, those ministers were like losing gamblers, their eyes red and their teeth gritted, and they longed to eat Yuan Zhao alive in their hearts. However, there was nothing to be done, because it was the Yulin Army who was ordered to act, and the destination of these goods was not Yuan Zhao's mansion, let alone the residence of the prince, but the state treasury.
Since Yuan Zhao contributed all the bets he deserved, the prince would not withhold a baht of money privately. Therefore, the victors plundered unceremoniously justifiably. After Zheng Zheng, the Taizhong doctor in charge of the treasury at that time, made a report to His Majesty the Emperor after completing the registration of 1510, he couldn't help but sigh, but this income was enough to support most of the budget expenditure of the Western Expeditionary Army.
And all these credits are recorded in the names of Changle Hou Yuanzhao and the crown prince. When it was spread to the world according to the emperor's instructions, all those who heard it, whether they were officials, merchants, or people, were amazed. There is a prince who is virtuous, and there are courtiers who do their best, and today's son can be said to have the wisdom to know people!
Of course, these are all later words, and Yuan Zhao at this moment did not know that the emperor would use some things to make a big fuss. In the spring rain of Chang'an, moist as a crisp, he returned home alone, and the Suzaku Street under his feet was still the same, but the story that happened here from now on may be different from before.
"Promote the development of agriculture and commerce at the same time to promote the development of all industries." This is a policy of governing the country that the Han Dynasty will pursue in Yuan Zhao's mind for a long time in the future.
After Gaozu, Emperor Hui, Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing IV, a hundred years of recuperation, especially the rapid development in the last ten years, the counties and cities of the world have been very prosperous.
This degree of prosperity can be seen from Chang'an. At this time, in Chang'an City, the capital of the Han Dynasty, there are nine square "cities", there are walls built around them, the city gate is opposite to each other, there are tunnels in the city, the center of the tunnel intersects like a cross, and the shops that display commodities are sandwiched on both sides, and the shops are all arranged in rows, in an orderly manner.
The varieties operated by various merchants are not only local specialties, but also high-grade silk fabrics, fur fabrics, exquisite lacquerware, etc., as well as goods such as clothing, food, housing and transportation, etc., which are dazzling, and the clothes and decorations on the stalls are even more beautiful than those used by princes and nobles.
Wait until the future...... Towering Kyushu, the center of the world! All countries are coming to the dynasty, Chang'an, China!
This emotionally stimulating goal must be accomplished in one's own hands. And it must be better than those heroic predecessors, and it must be done more thoroughly. Yuan Zhao felt the expectation and attention in the eyes of those ordinary people behind him, and although his steps were dignified, they were extremely firm.
The events of the court meeting that took place on this ordinary day in the spring have been recorded in the annals of history. Become an important sign, or an important start.
Of course, ordinary sentient beings will not realize what unexpected changes will occur in the fortune of the great man because a person begins to play chess in the game of the world. What they love to hear most is just the wonderful stories. For example, in the legend that gradually spread to the ears of people all over the world, the story of the young marquis is wonderful enough.
Yuan Zhao escaped unharmed, and his miraculous methods and great fame became more widely known. And his opponents ended up in disarray. Among them, the three leaders who instigated this incident were all carried out of the Hanyuan Palace. The Great Han Tingwei died, and Dazong was so angry that he fell ill, and the Imperial Doctor was said to have been starved .......
That's what word of mouth says, Yuan Zhao, who has decided to officially step into the court, fights wits and courage with powerful opponents in the case of fighting alone, not only to defend his good marriage with Princess Li'an, but also to make the "bad old man" Dazong Zhengda who is a hindrance from it half dead. Moreover, he successfully cleared the charge of framing him by the "mentally ill" Tingwei Du Zhou, and returned his innocence. As for the fact that the Great Han Tingwei died of illness on the spot, in the hearts of ordinary people, of course, it is not worthy of sympathy.
Tingwei's Mansion can be regarded as a bad luck this time. Soon after hearing the news of the death of their chief official, Captain Si Li's final army led a large number of capable subordinates into the Tingwei Mansion, and was ordered by the emperor to thoroughly investigate the collusion and misdeeds between the princes and the Marquis of Changle.
Several princes and princes who had been forced to sign and detain after severe torture suddenly learned of such a reversal in the arraignment hall and immediately retracted their confessions in court. After telling the real situation from beginning to end, several people howled and cried, took off their clothes one after another, and showed the scars on their bodies in front of the court, the flesh and blood were blurred, and it was unbearable to see.
Shi Zhang Muzhi, the head of the Tingwei Mansion who first planned to launch this matter, was already sweating like rain when he stood next to him, his body was like chaff, and he couldn't stand anymore, his face was like ashes, but he was still holding on. His last hope now is that his distant cousin Uncle Yu Shi Doctor Zhang Tang can come to save his life!
But unfortunately, he can't wait for that opportunity. Don't say that Zhang Tang has been too busy to take care of himself, how to live a hard life at home. Even if he has that heart, he doesn't have that strength, because it's Captain Si Li who is in charge of this matter!
After a few years had passed, and the Sili Lieutenant's Mansion had bared its fangs a few times, now everyone finally knew what this newly created official position was for.
Picket the adultery of hundreds of officials and impeach the princes for lawlessness! This is the enormous authority that Captain Sili holds in his hands. Obviously, as the highest law enforcement system of the imperial court, the disadvantages that have gradually formed over the years have made the emperor feel vigilant. In addition to deterring hundreds of officials, another very important role in the establishment of the Sili School Governor's Mansion is to restrain the Tingwei Mansion.
Captain Si Li's final army was heroic, and his eyes were as cold as knives. Eight years ago, the boy who invited Changying to go to the South China Sea to tie up the dragon has grown into a real pillar of the country.
He shot unceremoniously! And it's a thunderbolt that won't be merciful. This is the first time that the Tingwei Mansion has been targeted for so many years since its establishment. From Changshi to ordinary officials, all the relevant personnel of the Tingwei Mansion who participated in this matter, no matter what the relationship was behind them, were arrested in court first and imprisoned pending trial. For a while, people were panicked, and everyone was in danger.
Soon after, a large number of officials and envoys sent by the princes and kings began to submit letters to accuse the relevant personnel of the Imperial Court of many illegal deeds, and their actions were of various types, and there were many heinous ones. After the emperor handed over the inspection to the lieutenant of Sili, he learned that most of them were the truth, and he couldn't help but be furious and did not tolerate it.
In this turmoil, except for Du Zhou, the commander of the court, who had already died and escaped accountability, the rest of the people who were implicated amounted to several hundred, and they were respectively punished by different punishments such as beheading, punishment, distribution, and hard labor.
From top to bottom, the highest law enforcement agency in Dahan, it has been thoroughly vetted. As for who will enter the Imperial Governor's Mansion and become the head of the Jiuqing after this turmoil, His Majesty the Emperor has not yet decided on the candidate, and the government and the opposition will wait and see, and they are still waiting and seeing.
And the emperor in the depths of Weiyang Palace, although he can't hear the voices of discussion and speculation outside, he has a clear understanding of the wind direction of the government and the public. After waving his hand to let the spy of Xi Fengwei, who came to report the news, retreat, he put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at the large table of dishes in front of him with some regret, he was already too full to eat, and he really couldn't eat anymore.
"I never thought that I could eat such a variety of fresh vegetables in this solar term. And the taste is so different...... Hehe! Yuan Zhao, this guy, what skills have not been used? ”
"Your Majesty, you have a great appetite for these meals. The concubine saw it in her eyes, and her heart was relieved. The state affairs are heavy, and His Majesty's body is the most important thing. The prince, when he came back at that time, he had already taken the palace attendants to the Changle Marquis Mansion to study in detail. Soon, on the large vacant land on the side of Bowang Garden, you can also build a few greenhouses, and plant some of the vegetables and fruits that His Majesty likes to eat according to the method taught by Yuan Zhao. When the time comes, you can pick it at any time, and the concubines are willing to cook fresh dishes for Your Majesty, and they will be able to eat at any time. ”
This is Jianzhang Palace, only the emperor and the empress have a private banquet, except for the palace people who are waiting, there are no outsiders present. A small table is filled with a variety of colorful and delicate dishes, and the atmosphere is blended and full of laughter.
These fruits and vegetables for cooking are naturally from Yuanzhao Mansion. Since the last time at the court meeting, Yuan Zhao put out the greenhouse vegetables with a big bamboo basket in the palace, his house has suffered.
The reason is that after the emperor ordered him to try those things that looked very tempting, he immediately ordered the crown prince Liu Ju on the spot to lead a large number of palace guards to follow Yuan Zhao back to the mansion to pick a large number of them. How many are for me to get back!
So, in order to honor his father, the excited prince gathered a hundred people and several carriages to loot the backyard of the Marquis of Changle's mansion.
"So good! The queen can watch this matter herself, and take care of it. When the conditions are ripe, I can promote this planting technology to the counties and people of the world, so that all my people can also taste the rare taste in this world, which can be regarded as a merit. When the time comes, this credit will be credited to the queen! Ha ha! ”
Empress Wei left the table and bowed down: "Thank you, Your Majesty for your kindness!" Your Majesty eats and eats, and he also cares about the world and never forgets. Such benevolence is indeed the blessing of all subjects, and it is also the blessing of my Han Society! The concubine hereby congratulates her! ”
"Hahaha! The husband doesn't have to be like this. You and I are one, so why be humble. You've done a great job over the years. Mother the world, moisturize the common people, there is your responsibility in this! Do a little more, and your subjects will naturally remember your kindness ....... ”
The two of them talked harmoniously here, but they didn't mention it at all, this credit seems to be due to a certain young marquis, right? This seems to have been automatically ignored by them. Or rather, the emperor and empress have long been at ease with their own inventions! Originally, too, the eldest princess who had worked so hard to raise was about to deign to marry him, even if she took more things from him, it didn't seem to be a big deal?
"Your Majesty, now that the criticism of the outside world has been eliminated, then...... When should Su Xi's family affairs be set? ”
Empress Wei was full of anticipation, and finally asked the question she had been most concerned about for a long time.
