Within half a month of Wang Zheng's entry into Beijing, a group continued to issue various decrees.

For the officials who had defected to Dashun in the former Ming Dynasty, they were basically allowed to be reinstated, but only a very small number of people, including Zhang Jinyan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, were able to enter the staff office to serve.

In addition, Wang Zheng ordered the reconstruction of the tombs of Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou.

Originally, after Li broke into the city, he just wanted to win the hearts of the northern gentry, so he symbolically ordered the burial of Chongzhen and Queen Zhou, but Zhao Yigui, the former Ming official who was in charge of the construction, did not implement it quickly, and finally completed the construction with only more than 300 liang silver.

After finding out about this matter, Wang Zheng ordered the arrest and beheading of Zhao Yigui, the official of the Ministry of War, and Zhang Jinyan, the secretary of the Ministry of War.

After this incident, Wang Zheng moved the general office of the urban management bureau in Nanjing to the city of Beijing, and a large number of personnel of the three divisions of the urban management bureau and soldiers of the Qi army walked around the city, and arrested a total of 600 prisoners in three days.

Among them, including the officials of the former Ming Dynasty, some landlords and gentry, as well as a large number of Donglin scholars who incited people's hearts everywhere, for a while, the Beijing division was shaken, and no one was shocked at this time.

When the city of Beijing was becoming more stable, Wang Zheng ordered the agricultural advisers of the Staff Office and the staff and advisers of the Ministry of Agriculture to start a thorough and comprehensive land census and household registration in the inner city of Beijing.

On the other hand, Wang Zheng appointed Cao Huachun, the eunuch of the former Ming Si Li Supervisor, as the supervisor, and the eunuchs Che Yingkui and Wang Dehua, the eunuchs of the former Si Li Bingpen, and the eunuchs Wang Zhijun and Lu Weining assisted from the side.

On the one hand, Cao Huachun was both respectful and afraid, and on the other hand, he quickly began the reconstruction work, and after a simple field investigation, he concisely replied to Wang Zheng about the current situation of Chongzhen's mausoleum.

"The stele pavilion is four feet eight feet from north to south, and three zhang is repaired. Enjoy the hall, thirteen steps away from the door, step three, no platform, three halls, seven feet wide, two feet wide, two feet of repair, one incense case, five green glaze, all the utensils. A god card, two feet five inches high, stone blue ground, carved dragon edge, with gold clay, the title is 'Ming Qin Tianshou Dao Min Yi Dun Jian Hongwen Xiang Wu Ti Ren Zhi Xiao Zhuang Lie Chu Emperor'. ”

This kind of specification seems to be good, but compared with the mausoleums of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, it is already very shabby, Cao Huachun even cried when he said this, and kept begging Wang Zheng to renovate the mausoleum of Emperor Zhuanglie.

Obviously, Wang Zheng still attaches great importance to this matter, and even if he issued an order to allocate 12,000 taels of silver for the time being, and move Emperor Zhuanglie and Empress Zhou Zigong to enjoy the imperial mausoleum, if it is insufficient, the staff will properly make up for it.

The efficient system of the Qi army is working again, and the king of Qi decrees, and no one dares to delay it for no reason.

In the morning, Cao Huachun walked out of the Winter Warm Pavilion, and before three o'clock in the afternoon, the silver had been delivered in place, and after some amazement, Cao Huachun immediately took the eunuchs to hire workers, and began to dig the grave with shovels and hoes.

That's right, it's digging graves.

Li Zicheng actually built Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou on the tomb of Tian Guifei, how to say that Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou are also the last orthodox emperors of the Ming Dynasty, whether Wang Zheng or Li Zicheng, they all have a high opinion of this couple.

Buried in the tomb of the concubine, one does not conform to the rules and regulations of more than 200 years, and the other is that the specifications are too small, which is an insult to the emperor and queen of the Ming Dynasty.

dug up the coarse and buried sand, blew open the stone doors on the east and west sides, and finally pulled out the coffins of Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou, but at this time, someone in the distance suddenly shouted:

"King Qi to ——!"

This voice shocked Cao Huachun and the others, and they hurriedly knelt on the ground with a group of workers, and shouted:

"Greetings to King Qi Chitose~"

Wang Zheng came with a vote of civil and military, plus the guards of the forbidden army and the palace maids and eunuchs, at least a few hundred people, who came in a mighty manner, and suddenly blocked the originally small mausoleum of the concubine even more crowded.

But the crowding naturally can't squeeze Wang Zheng's head, so the people below can only bear it silently, and after glancing at the weathered coffin, Wang Zheng suddenly said:

"Come on, open the coffin!"

Cao Huachun didn't react at first, and hurriedly persuaded:

"Lord, Emperor Zhuanglie and Empress Zhou have been martyred for many days, and when the coffin is opened at this time, it is inevitable that it will stink, and it is also disrespectful to the emperor and queen, and the slave and maid look at ......it."

Hearing this, Wang Zheng narrowed his eyes and asked:

"Cao Huachun, what did you say?"

Before the sentence "uh......" was finished, Cao Huachun immediately felt a faint killing intent, and immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed like pounding garlic:

"The slave maid is saying that the king of Qi is wise, and the king of Qi is a thousand years old!"

Wang Zheng snorted coldly with satisfaction and shouted:

"Keep going!"

When the guards of the forbidden army pried open the coffins of Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou, a bad smell immediately came out of it, not only the eunuchs such as Cao Huachun and Wang Dehua covered their noses, but even the guards of the forbidden army on both sides frowned.

The ministers of the previous dynasty behaved the most unbearable, and some even vomited on the spot, Wang Zheng's face was as usual, and he did not have any uncomfortable reaction, holding the side of Emperor Chongzhen's coffin, slowly walked to the front, and carefully looked at the appearance of the king of the dead country.

Seeing the appearance of King Qi, Li Yan's face was shocked, Shi Bangyao, Mao Xiang and others looked sideways, and subconsciously put down the sleeves covering their noses, feeling disdainful for themselves.

"Alas, Your Majesty, if you had trusted me a little bit, we wouldn't have come to this point." Wang Zheng muttered in a faint voice that only he could hear:

"But you can rest assured that the rivers and mountains of our Han people will not be the turn of those barbarians outside the border."

One last glance at Emperor Chongzhen's remains, Wang Zheng endured the pungent rancid smell and came to the front of Empress Zhou's coffin, staring at this filial piety queen whose backbone did not belong to men.

However, Wang Zheng only glanced at it, then sighed deeply and looked away, and ordered the coffin to be resealed with good wood.

It may be that after too much time, Wang Zheng has not been able to achieve his wishes.

At that time, the bodies of Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou had begun to decompose on a large scale because Li Zicheng was not properly preserved, and all Wang Zheng saw were two human bones that looked like skeletons.

In the end, Wang Zheng ordered that the coffins of Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou be moved into the imperial mausoleum.

There are two imperial tombs in the Ming Dynasty, one was built by Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhang Xianzhong destroyed it after capturing Fengyang, and now there are basically only ruins left.

The second is located at the foot of Tianshou Mountain on the outskirts of Beijing, and this second was built by Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, and has buried twelve emperors.

Wang Zheng sent a thousand corps of the forbidden army to camp on the periphery of the imperial mausoleum of Tianshou Mountain, and there were sentinels who patrolled all day long, and there were also soldiers of the forbidden army on the city in turn.

After continuous investigation by Cao Huachun and the officials of the staff office, the coffins of Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou were moved into the imperial tomb ten days later.

Wang Zheng named the mausoleums of Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou as "Zhuang Ling", allocated 100,000 taels of silver for the second time, and ordered Fang Yizhi to take charge of the comprehensive repair of the Ming Emperor's mausoleum.

As a result, the "Zhuang Mausoleum" of Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou was also expanded.

After the craftsman built the platform on the topography of the current imperial mausoleum, it was decided to move the old stele pavilion to the platform, the back wall was slightly heightened, and the treasure top was added with the wall, and the original building of the palace was renovated into five rooms, and the palace gate was renovated into three rooms, so as to show the grace of the king of Enqi.

The mausoleum gate of Zhuangling was rebuilt into three gatehouses of the hard hilltop type, and the hall was built into a single-eaves hilltop type building with five rooms wide and three rooms deep, which was very majestic.

After the five offerings of stone carving, the single-sided wall type of the treasure city wall without horse road and the Yu wall was built, and the city platform and the Ming Tower of the heavy eaves rest on the top of the mountain have everything.

In response to the decree of the king of Qi, the craftsmen set up a stone tablet outside the gate of "Zhuangling" after the completion of the construction, which was engraved with the blood book of Emperor Chongzhen after hanging himself and martyrdom.

In this way, Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou can be regarded as having a good start and a good end.
