The ancients believed that after death, their souls were not extinguished and could still live in the underworld, so there was a saying that they built a tomb in a yin house. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

As the emperor of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, since the Qin and Han dynasties, there has been a practice of repairing the emperor's mausoleum for one year after the emperor's accession to the throne, and even the state has a special share of taxes for the emperor's use of repairing the mausoleum.

This is a symbol of the emperor, and so far, no minister has blamed the emperor for spending a lot of money on the emperor's mausoleum, and many emperors also like to use it as an excuse to accumulate wealth, so it is more difficult to be hindered by the ministers.

But what Wang Chengen, Zhu Youzhen and others did not expect was that Zhu Youxiao wanted to stop the construction of his imperial mausoleum, and he also wanted to use the silver elsewhere.

This is an unprecedented thing in the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, and a generation of emperors sympathized with the people to the extent that they would rather stop building the mausoleum and save money to help the people.

Even Zhu Youzhen was very surprised, he never expected that his imperial brother would make such a decision, and he was deeply educated by Confucianism, and he didn't think about stopping Zhu Youxiao's crazy moves.

Even the queen Zhang Yan, Zhou's and Yao Xuan's servants also knelt down, and they couldn't help crying one by one, and the old eunuch Wang Chengen didn't know whether he was pretending to be hypocritical or revealing his true feelings, and he couldn't stop whimpering.

Zhu Youxiao himself didn't think there was anything, he who mainly received materialist education in his previous life, didn't think about what happened after his death so clearly, and he didn't feel how important the mausoleum was.

It can be said that if Zhu Youxiao did not build the mausoleum, it would be tantamount to violating the rules of the ruling class of the dynasty enjoying special social powers.

And Zhu Youxiao's seemingly insignificant sacrifice also caused a great shock to others because of this.

"I have made up my mind, as long as the people of Qin can survive and don't rebel against my Zhu family, I, Zhu Youxiao, will be satisfied."

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help sneezing as he spoke, only to remember that he was sweating and didn't have time to change his clothes after they were soaked, and Queen Zhang Yan suddenly realized when she saw this, and she immediately ordered someone to prepare hot water and boil ginger soup when she was busy with the dereliction of duty of the concubine.

After Zhu Youxiao took a bath, he saw that Zhu Youzhen was still kneeling on the ground, so he said: "Get up, you are now a soldier of the Praetorian Guard, and it is a military regulation to leave the barracks without authorization, go to Tang Fusheng, the law enforcement officer of the Praetorian Guard, to receive the punishment, and after receiving the punishment, you can find Liu Ruoyu, the palm seal of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, to apply to leave the Praetorian Guard barracks, and then I will stay in Xiyuan honestly!" “

"Yes!"

Zhu Youzhen rarely did not disobey Zhu Youxiao's wishes, but simply obeyed Zhu Youxiao's order and left Kunning Palace.

And Zhu Youxiao also came to the Xinuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, but when he arrived at the Xinuan Pavilion, he saw Wei Guangwei, Gu Bingqian, and others, all kneeling on the ground, wiping tears from their eyes.

"What is this kind of, Aiqing, my Qianqing Palace is not also your ancestral hall, get up", Zhu Youxiao said and walked into the inner room and sat down, while Wei Guangwei and the others also stood up busily: "Your Majesty's love for the people is a benevolent and righteous act, but it should not be because of this not to build the emperor's mausoleum, so how will the people of the world have the face to see the monarch in the future!" ”

"Okay, your heart of Chicheng, I understand, I am still young, and it is not too late to talk about it after the construction of the emperor's tomb, according to Sun Chengzong's excerpt, the grain in Qin is still rising wildly, but I have ordered people to transfer grain from the Huguang area of Shudi into Shaanxi since last year, why is it still rising wildly, can the people in Dongchang find out the reason?"

Zhu Youxiao asked Wang Chengen as he spoke.

Wang Chengen hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, it is said that the local gentry hoarded or colluded with local officials to buy and sell, and naturally the weather is still cold and the drought is still continuing. “

"The factors caused by God cannot be changed immediately, but these man-made factors must be suppressed, tell Sun Chengzong, there is no need to tolerate the traitors, kill a few more officials to show the people, in addition, the Donglin party leader and traitor who are locked up in Dongchang don't have to wait until after the autumn after my execution period, and tomorrow I will be pulled to the vegetable market to be executed, I want to show those who are ready to move, whether I am so good at talking!"

When Zhu Youxiao said it so coldly, Wei Guangwei, a member of the cabinet university, couldn't help but be surprised, but he was also a little secretly happy in his heart, it seemed that His Majesty was still angry about the remnants of Donglin.

At this time, Li Mingrui stood up: "Your Majesty, Weichen has a suggestion, since Han Yi and others are executed, it is better to let Zhu Youzhen be the supervisor and beheader." “

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this, and immediately understood the deep meaning of Li Mingrui's action, which was nothing more than to make Zhu Youzhen the last executioner of the Donglin Party, so as to make the gentry in Jiangnan completely dead.

"Very good, my imperial brother is not honest as a prince, and he is afraid of hardship when he is a soldier, so it is better to let him do this, pass on his life, and restore Zhu Youxin's title to the king, but only the title is not accepted, and he serves as a supervisor and beheader!"

Zhu Youxiao said that he would leave the Xinuan Pavilion after speaking, and he still walked out of the Forbidden City in the afternoon, if his expectations were good, because of Chen Mingxia and the others being killed by the cane, the current Fu Guan was afraid that he was already in a hurry.

In a teahouse in the capital, Zhu Youxiao smashed his fist on the table angrily, and yelled at Fu Guan: "I said Mr. Fu, who asked your people to go to see His Royal Highness King Xin so soon!" Do you know, just because of this incident, I was put in the Praetorian Guard on duty as the general flag of an eyeliner disappeared, didn't I let you tell the person, you have to wait until the surname Tang is not there! ”

"How did I know, I just let them act on the camera, find the right opportunity to find a way to save His Royal Highness King Xin, and last night I happened to learn that Tang Fusheng did not return to the Guogong Mansion in the military camp, but who would have expected that the surname Tang did not leave, and directly killed my three students, and later learned that His Majesty still returned to Xiyuan, so I sent a letter to the Gao Gonggong of Xiyuan overnight, asking him to hint that His Highness had been found out about his escape from the Praetorian Guard barracks, so that His Highness could deal with it, but strangely, why did His Highness return to Xiyuan?"

Seeing that this son named Zhu Ning was so anxious and angry, Fu Guan didn't expect that it was because Zhu Youxiao, who pretended to be Zhu Ning, had secretly arranged everything that caused Chen Mingxia and others, who he had placed in the Praetorian Guard, to be executed quickly.

But this does not mean that he does not have the slightest doubt, especially why Zhu Youzhen did not take advantage of last night to escape from the capital and returned to Xiyuan.

"I asked His Highness to go back to Xiyuan, since the matter has been revealed, wherever he goes, he will be controlled by Zhu Youxiao, it is better to let him return to Xiyuan, so that Zhu Youxiao will think that His Highness has no disobedience and will not kill him."

Zhu Youxiao sat down directly as he spoke, and he drank a cup of tea in one sip, looking very depressed.

And Fu Guan arched his hand towards Zhu Ning: "Gongzi Gaojian, it's just puzzling why Tang Fusheng of the Praetorian Guard learned so quickly that our people were going to take His Highness out of the barracks, it's really weird." “

As he spoke, Fu Guan stared at Zhu Ning's eyes.

Zhu Ning didn't dodge either, and smiled naturally: "So, Mr. Fu suspects Zhu?" ”
