March of the 17th year of the Ming Dynasty. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

On the door of the west corner of the Beijing Division, an old man with a winged crown on his head, wearing a plain clothes, wearing a waist scarf, holding his hands behind his back, stood quietly, his deep eyes looked into the distance, his face was covered with the nicks left by the years, and the black and white hair fluttered gently with the breeze.

There were three people standing behind him, all of whom were older than the old man, one of whom was a little older, holding a plain cloak in his hand, and slowly came behind the old man, with deep respect in the action of draping the old man, but the look on his face was full of anxiety, worry and desire to speak.

The old man with his hands behind his back didn't notice the look of the person behind him, and he said slowly: "Stay and wait, because the mausoleum matter needs to be discussed." ”

The man behind him wanted to speak, but he didn't expect the old man to speak in advance, and the words in his mouth were stiffly choked back, his face became more and more anxious, but he had to listen patiently to the old man's words.

At this time, the other two behind the old man also came to the old man's body, they listened to the old man's words, and replied respectfully: "Yesterday, I knew that the funeral of Empress Zhuang Rui was not in accordance with the ceremony, and I wanted to correct it. ”

When the old man heard this, he turned around, and as soon as he turned around, the momentum of his position was dripping and exquisite, but the face was very different from the old body.

He slowly took out a scroll of Yuling drawings from his sleeve, pointed to one of them and sighed: "This is not a courtesy!" ”

This is a scroll of design drawings for the burial, and the place he pointed to is where the mausoleum of Empress Xiaozhuang Rui is located, but this should lead to the tomb of Emperor Yingzong, but for some reason it was seen strictly.

The middle-aged man continued: "Yesterday, I saw Peng Shi and Yao Kui in Chenghua Nian playing a chapter, the ministers of the first dynasty were loyal to the country, and the first emperor was also very helpless. ”

The two old men in front of him said to him: "It is like a holy message, but if it is cut off from the holy heart today, all the subjects of the world will be happy, and the annals of history will be glorious for all generations!" ”

When the middle-aged man heard this praise, he was not happy, but frowned and said: "Qin Tian's supervisor, the correct thing is afraid of feng shui, but wouldn't the joint burial not move feng shui?" The Empress Dowager of Daxing bowed and bowed, and her kindness was profound, how dare I forget? But Empress Dowager Qian is the only emperor and queen since my ancestors, if it is only from the beginning of the ruined world, I am afraid that it will be chaotic and undisciplined in the future! ”

Several people listened to the middle-aged man's words, but none of them dared to speak, and they didn't know what the middle-aged man was paying attention to.

The middle-aged man stared at the three people in front of him for a long time, and then continued: "I have decided that the tablet portrait of the Empress Dowager should be enshrined in the Fengci Temple, not in the Imperial Ancestor Gongyi Temple!" ”

When the three of them heard this, they hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, this matter may need to be discussed by the court!" ”

Just as a few people were about to continue, the old man with an anxious face couldn't help it, as if he had made a major decision, and sighed and said, "Your Majesty, Minister Liu Jian has something to say." ”

"Oh? What do you recommend? The old man asked with interest.

"This is not a mausoleum matter, I hope the emperor will not hurt his body when he hears it." Liu Jian looked at the dying Emperor Hongzhi in front of him, and plucked up the courage to say, "Prince, go south!" ”

"Evil obstacles...... Ahem...... Dressed in brocade, the guards quickly captured this evil beast back to the capital division! The excitement was covered with a sickly flush on his face. This paragraph of text may be a little awkward to read, and it also affects the interest in reading, this is a dialogue in "Ming Shilu - Emperor Hongzhi", so I put this paragraph at the beginning, in fact, there is a purpose.

The specific content of this text is that Emperor Hongzhi and the three major scholars of the cabinet discuss the issue of the joint burial of Emperor Yingzong's (Zhu Qizhen)'s original wife, Qian (Empress Qian), and Emperor Xianzong's (Zhu Jianshen)'s biological mother (Empress Zhou), that is, Emperor Hongzhi's grandmother. (Xianzong and Yingzong are all nicknames given after death, and the living can't be called that, so I call Zhu Youzhu Emperor Hongzhi, not Xiaozong.) ）

Isn't it a little dizzy?

This was an important ceremonial battle in the Ming Dynasty, and of course, compared with the great etiquette of Emperor Jiajing, this may not be very famous.

The beginning of the matter is that Queen Qian Xianbintian (died), but where should she be buried? It stands to reason that Empress Qian is the right match of Emperor Yingzong, and she should be buried with Emperor Yingzong, but Xianzong Zhu Jianshen's mother is unwilling, the old lady's son is the current emperor, and your Empress Dowager Qian has no son, why should you be buried with Yingzong?

So there is Zhu Jianshen, the son of the Empress Dowager Zhou, anyway, no matter what, Queen Qian and Yingzong are not allowed to be buried together, and the feng shui treasure is the old lady's!

To say that Yingzong is also a more miserable emperor, the Tumubao Change, was imprisoned for 1 year, this is not the end, and after coming back, he was imprisoned by his younger brother Daizong for 8 years.

During this period of the Tumubao Incident, Empress Qian looked forward to the return of Emperor Yingzong day and night, and even cried blindly, and her body was disabled.

Queen Qian is a good match, but she has no son, so after Zhu Jianshen ascended the throne, the mother and son started a tomb dispute with the ministers.

The ministers' original intention was to let the Empress Dowager Qian be buried next to Yingzong, but the Empress Dowager Zhou did not allow it, and after several twists and turns, the ministers put forward the idea of a joint burial.

This was the minister's last concession, but the Empress Dowager Zhou still did not agree, so Peng Shi and Yao Xie led more than 200 officials to kneel outside the Wenhua Gate to petition, and the cry shook the sky and resounded throughout the country, from morning to dusk, not waiting for the order to return.

Having said so much, it is to illustrate that the first purpose, since then, the Ming Dynasty has opened a unique fancy method of persuading the emperor, crying!

Judging from the later Wuzong Southern Tour and Jiajing's great ceremonial incident, the ministers still learned this trick perfectly.

Judging from the results of the ministers' move, it was very successful.

I'm sorry, the success is wrong, there was still a little failure during the period, that is, the Empress Dowager Zhou promised to agree, but she played a trick, when she asked the eunuch to build a cemetery, she didn't let Queen Qian's tomb communicate with Yingzong!

Just when our Hongzhi Emperor was giving his grandmother Zhou Daxing the Empress Dowager (after Bintian, there was no nickname, so he replaced it with Daxing, for example, Emperor Daxing is the meaning of the first emperor. When he went to the tomb, he found this, so he wanted to get it through, but Qin Tianjian said that it was against Feng Shui, so Emperor Hongzhi gave up on correcting it.

Well, the second purpose is to illustrate that since then, the Ming Dynasty has started the joint burial fever!

In fact, there is a third purpose......
