Chapter 943 moved the idea of moving south

On the first day of the new new year, the ministers have to worship the ancestors with the emperor, and this year is not excluded, the ministers got up early in the morning, and they were waiting outside the main hall, but they didn't expect Zhu Youzhen to come in a hurry, but he told the ministers that this year's ancestors, and did not go to the Taimiao, in order to express his sincerity to the ancestors, he wanted to go to the imperial mausoleum in Changping in person to worship.

The ministers were dumbfounded, but yesterday came the news that Li Zicheng was proclaimed emperor in Xi'an, knowing that the emperor was in a bad mood, no one dared to speak out against it.

Under Wang Chengen's reminder, the ministers remembered to prepare carriages and horses, and the imperial tomb was a hundred miles away from Beijing.

The generals all came by car, but most of the Wenchen took a sedan chair to the court, and they had to go back to change the carriage, Zhu Youjian had a straight face, and only gave them half an hour.

At the end of the day, Zhu Youzhen led the minister of civil and military affairs out of the Andingmen in the north of the city, along the wide official road, went to the imperial mausoleum, although there are carriages, but the number of people is too many, the official road is very crowded, the horses can not drive at all, until the afternoon, almost before the hour, only arrived at the foot of Tianshou Mountain.

Zhu Youzhen got out of the royal car, without any pause, and went straight to Changling.

The important ministers in the court are all old, and they are not as good as Zhu Youzhen in the prime of life, and they are full of complaints, but unfortunately, they can only use the smallest voice for a round, or even just a look, and no one dares to show it loudly.

They replenished food and water in the carriage, and after getting out of the carriage, although their backs hurt, they could only follow Zhu Youzhen's pace.

Changling is the first mausoleum, it is the mausoleum of the Yongle Emperor and the Empress Xu who are buried together, Tianshou Mountain becomes the imperial mausoleum area, it is from the Changling Tomb of the Yongle Emperor that begins, the twelve tombs surround the valley basin of the east, west and north of Tianshou Mountain.

Entering the big red gate, Zhu Youzhen's expression was gloomy, and even Wang Chengen, who was following him, did not dare to breathe, the first assistant Chen Yan followed closely behind, and the rest of the ministers and the six ministers did not dare to slack off, and the low-grade officials had just arrived at Tianshou Mountain at this time.

Entering the small red gate, facing the Qi'en Gate, Zhu Youzhen hesitated for a moment before passing through the small door on the left, and the civil and military officials could not walk with the emperor, they could only crowd through the small door on the right.

Before entering the Qi'en Palace, Zhu Youzhen put incense in the incense burner on the left side, bowed to the air three times, and his lips moved.

He first looked at Longshan on the left, and then at Hushan on the right, and silently muttered in his heart: The left green dragon, the right white tiger, plus the Yongle Emperor, bless the Ming Dynasty for eternity......

Zhu Youzhen himself doesn't believe that which dynasty can last forever, maybe the Ming Dynasty will eventually be replaced by a new dynasty, but such a thing can't happen to him anyway!

Yan'er has said that she is a good emperor who is diligent in political affairs......

Wang Chengen followed Zhu Youzhen's gaze, and also looked to both sides, and was unconsciously surprised, the Dragon Mountain on the left is really a winding dragon, and the Tiger Mountain on the right is alive and well A white tiger with slightly closed eyes is napping!

Wolong, Fuhu!

The feng shui of the imperial tomb is really good, will such a Ming Dynasty usher in the crisis of the Liukou?

Although he has a noble status in the palace, Wang Chengen came to the imperial tomb for the first time, and the tremor in his heart was even more than the message from Shaanxi yesterday.

The ministers put incense on the incense burner on the right side, but there were too many people, and only the high-ranking officials in front had the opportunity to put on the incense, and the officials who followed behind, because they wanted to catch up with Zhu Youzhen's pace, directly ignored the incense burner with their mouths open.

Wang Chengen supported Zhu Youzhen, walked through the eighteen steps, is the majestic Qi'en Palace, the red bottom wall, bright yellow glazed tiles, from the entrance of the main hall, you can see the golden silk nanmu column.

This kind of golden silk nanmu is a special product of Yungui, each nanmu is hugged by two people, the age of the tree is more than 1,000 years, such nanmu, a total of sixty, it is said that when the main hall was built, the Yongle Emperor was afraid of being "nailed", not allowed to use a nail, all rely on the natural connection between the tenon joints between the nanmu.

In the middle of the main hall, there is a bronze statue of Emperor Yongle, lifelike, spotless, or the mighty appearance before his death.

Zhu Youzhen shook off Wang Chengen's hand, lay in front of the bronze statue and kowtowed respectfully three times, and did not wait for the ministers behind, first got up, but stared at the bronze statue with a gloomy gaze: If it weren't for the rule that Emperor Yongle set up "the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies in the community", maybe the matter of moving the capital to Nanjing would be much easier than now!

Does the king have to die in the community?

His heart trembled uncontrollably, and in order to prevent the courtiers from seeing it, he took Wang Chengen's hand, bypassed the bronze statue of Emperor Yongle, and walked out of the back door.

Behind the Qi'en Palace, there are copper furnaces and stone furnaces as usual, but incense is not allowed here, Zhu Youzhen did not stay, but directly entered Fangcheng and Ming Tower.

This is a two-story structure, the square city on the ground floor is the stone city, and the big red tablet of the Yongle Emperor is enshrined in the Tianmen, and there are nine big characters from top to bottom: the tomb of Emperor Cheng Zuwen of the Ming Dynasty!

The Ming Building on the upper floor is a small building with red walls and yellow tiles, a typical single eaves rest on the top of the mountain, the eaves angle flies up and upturns, and there is a tendency to rise into the air.

Zhu Youzhen worshiped the Yongle Emperor's spiritual seat as usual, and there were words in his mouth, like a Taoist ghost hunting, delayed for a moment, turned to the spiritual position, climbed the stairs along the stairs, and finally ascended the Ming Tower after turning the corner from the second platform.

In the Baoding Mountain to the north of the Ming Tower, it is the coffin of the Yongle Emperor and the Empress Xu, it may be that the Yongle Emperor does not want others to disturb, between the foundation of the Ming Tower and the Baoding Mountain, there is a wide shallow ditch, and ordinary people can not step directly through it.

Zhu Youzhen stood on the Ming Tower, facing the neatly repaired Baoding Mountain, the coffin was in front of the side, and as far as the eye could see, a corner could be seen.

Zhu Youzhen's face was solemn, no one knew what he was thinking in his heart, he didn't use the ladder to climb Baoding Mountain, he didn't even kneel three times and bow nine times, but just paid attention to the coffin from a distance.

The steps on the Ming Tower were too small, and only a few important ministers were with Zhu Youzhen, and the ministers could only stand on the steps and continue to the Heavenly Gate.

Zhu Youzhen paused for a moment, and then returned along the steps with the support of Wang Chengen, and the officials followed far behind.

Out of the Hongmen, it was still early, Zhu Youzhen worshiped the Xianling and Jingling again, and set up camp at the foot of Longshan, the officials did not dare to return to the city without authorization, so they could only take Zhu Youzhen's camp tent as the center, camp far away, and surround Zhu Youzhen's big tent in the center.

After the worship of the Twelve Tombs, it was already the afternoon of the second day of the first month, and when I returned to Beijing, it was already the second half of the night, and the older officials had already fallen apart.

Zhu Youzhen returned to the Qianqing Palace, first asked Wang Chengen to pass Li Mingrui to meet him tomorrow, and then asked the palace maids to serve and soak in the hot bath, these two days to worship the imperial tomb, he was so tired that he didn't even wear clothes, and he fell asleep directly on the dragon bed, and even Zhang Yan didn't think about it.

I slept well all night, and I didn't even dream.

When he woke up the next day, it was already time, and the little eunuch Zhang Yin saw Zhu Youzhen get up, and hurriedly came over to report: "Your Majesty, Li Mingrui is waiting outside the palace!" ”

Zhu Youzhen nodded, his hard work in the past two days still needs Li Mingrui's cooperation, without Li Mingrui's cooperation, these two days have been in vain, and the current situation of Daming is really difficult to solve.

He asked Zhang Yin to bring Li Mingrui into the hall to serve tea, and after he finished serving the palace maid, he ate two more desserts before summoning Li Mingrui in the Dongnuan Pavilion.

"Weichen Li Mingrui knocks on the emperor!" Li Mingrui didn't know why Zhu Youzhen was summoned on the third day of the first lunar month, and he was uneasy.

"Li Aiqing, hurry up!" Although Zhu Youzhen did not leave the seat, he was kind and pleasant, and gave Li Mingrui a seat.

Li Mingrui was a little flattered, in recent years, there have always been various changes at home and abroad, Zhu Youzhen has always been in a bad mood, important ministers have been dismissed, and countless people have been killed, it is really rare to be so gentle as today.

Is it because of the new dollar?

However, the emperor is in a good mood today, and it shouldn't be a bad thing to summon himself, he bowed his hand to Zhu Youzhen, waiting for Zhu Youzhen to ask.

Zhu Youzhen's face actually had a faint smile, "Li Aiqing, the thief Li Zicheng is gradually getting bigger, at the end of last year, he actually proclaimed himself emperor in Xi'an and openly confronted the imperial court, what specific views does Li Aiqing have on the current situation?" ”

Li Mingrui was shocked, such a serious question, the emperor actually summoned him alone? He is neither a cabinet minister, nor a six-part scholar, but a small six-grade official, Zuo Zhongyun of Zhan Shifu!

He raised his head and glanced at Zhu Youzhen from the corner of his eye, and found that Zhu Youzhen's face not only had a smile, but also an inexplicable expectation.

Li Mingrui quickly thought about his words and deeds, and suddenly his heart moved, could it be ......

He didn't understand the emperor's intentions, so he tentatively said: "Back to the emperor, the previous governors were unfavorable to the thieves, causing the thieves to sit on the ......" said this, and deliberately paused for a while to observe Zhu Youzhen's reaction.

Zhu Youzhen waved his hand lightly and said with a smile: "Needless to say in the past, Li Aiqing still talks about what the imperial court is going to do now!" ”

Although Li Mingrui was still not sure, he was already seventy or eighty percent sure in his heart, so he gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, the Mandate of Heaven army is in full swing, and the imperial court can follow the old example of the Great Song Dynasty...... Move the capital to Nanjing, avoid its edge, and wait for the situation to change......"

"Move the capital to Nanjing?" Zhu You pretended to be pretending, as if he had suddenly discovered a new continent, he didn't have time to react for a while, thought for a long time, and said: "I also have this intention, but the court ministers don't obey, what can I do?" ”

Li Mingrui hurriedly said: "The Mandate of Heaven is secret, when the sacred heart is broken, don't worry about devouring the umbilicus," paused, and said: "Since the emperor's mind has been decided, make a decision as soon as possible, don't be mistaken by the courtiers!" ”

Zhu Youzhen hesitated, he gave up the Beijing Division and the Imperial Mausoleum like this, not to mention today's courtiers, he would definitely be scolded behind him, if the ministers mentioned it first at the court meeting, he pretended not to agree, the ministers repeatedly persuaded him to move, and he was forced to agree to move south, such a decision-making process would be perfect.

After all, this Li Mingrui is a six-grade petty official, and he is soft-spoken, his words are not enough to deter the court, Zhu Youzhen decided to touch the details of the ministers, "What Li Aiqing said, for the current situation, is a golden and jade good word, and the Qing can consider his words and go to the court in the future!" ”

Li Mingrui was overjoyed when he received Zhu Youzhen's affirmation, and hurriedly said: "The minister obeys the order, the minister will leave and go back, and consider the words!" ”

What does it mean to obey orders? Zhu Youzhen was unhappy in his heart, his face was also pulled down, and he said coldly: "Aiqing go back, you should consider the wording, don't let others know!" ”
