Chapter 3 To be a good emperor starts with frugality
Came out of the Cining Hall and went to the Ciming Hall to ask the Queen Mother to say goodbye, there is a lot of care and love, the heart is very warm, no matter where you go, you can't get rid of the sentence that only my mother is good in the world. Out of the Ciming Palace, I suddenly remembered this mantra in the future
"Your Majesty, where are you going, where are you going to the Middle Palace or the other two mothers" Xiaodouzi stepped forward and asked
"Go to the Imperial Study"
"Yes, the slave and maid obey the order, the emperor will stay here for a while, and the slave and maid will go and ask the royal servant" Xiaodouzi turned around and wanted to run away after speaking
"Come back, come back, you lead me there, such a bright morning, didn't I miss the sedan chair, let's go"
The first time I really went to observe the power center of the Northern Song Dynasty, this imperial city is actually not very big, mainly modeled after the palace model of Luoyang, built on the site of the five dynasties, the palace is only more than five miles around, the main hall in front of the palace is called Daqing Palace, located on the central axis in front of the left side of the palace, is the place where all kinds of big celebrations are held, the south of the Daqing Hall is the place where the ministers work, and the north of the Daqing Hall is the Zichen Palace, which is the place where I will go to the court in the future, and the west of the Daqing Hall is the place where I am going now. It is also the location of the Imperial Study
"The emperor is seeing that it is noon, will you go back to Ningfu Palace to eat in the imperial study" I was looking at the recent twists and turns, and I learned more about the current situation of the Great Song Dynasty, Xiaodouzi asked next to me
"Just eat here," I said, continuing to look at the song
"Yes, the slave and maid will go to pass the meal."
"Wait," I said, stopping Xiao Douzi, who was about to leave, "don't make too much, just three dishes and one soup."
"But, Your Majesty, this is not in accordance with the rules," Xiaodouzi said with a bitter face
"Who set the rules?"
"Of course, it's His Majesty Taizu of this dynasty," Xiaodouzi said very seriously
"Ao~ Taizu's rules, but his old man has been immortal for many years, Xiaodouzi, now I am the emperor on the throne, this rule has been changed from today, living officer, secretary, remember that there are many poor people in the world, and then up to the emperor's concubine, down to the civil and military officials, it is forbidden to waste food, if it is verified that there is excessive waste, you are not allowed to eat within three days, violators, court battles twenty"
"Obey the Order"
.................................................... Dividing Line.........................................................
"The Empress Dowager, you have to call the shots for us, the emperor just made an order without your consent, saying that there are only three dishes and one soup after the emperor's concubine, down to the civil and military officials, and the ministers don't care, but the emperor surrendered his identity and did so, which is too undignified, and without your approval, the emperor made a rash decree, the emperor has not yet been pro-government, and in the long run, the Great Song Dynasty will not be a country, the queen mother"
As soon as my words were recorded and passed down, Lu Gong, Wen Yanbo, Lu Dafang and Fan Chunren found the Empress Dowager and cried
"Ahem, cough, cough" The Empress Dowager kept coughing, I don't know if she was angry with me, the emperor, because of her illness
"Ladies and gentlemen, the mourning family already knows about this matter, and the mourning family will change this will back, and the mourning family will find the emperor to reprimand him in a while, cough, cough, cough, cough" The queen mother kept coughing
"The Empress Dowager, the emperor has been dissatisfied with our old ministers, and I don't know what the future will ................."
"Okay, since it's an old minister, you should know, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't look at what you shouldn't see, don't know what you shouldn't know, okay, go down, pass the will of the mourning family, withdraw the emperor's holy decree, retreat, the mourning family is tired"
"Yes, yes, the ministers are guilty, and the ministers are retired" Lu Gongzhu and the other four slowly withdrew from the Cining Palace
"Prime Minister, the emperor doesn't seem to be the same as before, why did he suddenly become a little resolute, not as weak as before" Fan Chunren asked Lu Gongshu, Wen Yanbo and Lu Dafang also asked the same question
"Yaofu (Fan Chunren) You are too worried, after all, the emperor is still a child, how much ability can you have when you are seventeen years old, don't worry, aren't we still the emperor's lecturer, just slowly influence him" Lu Gongzhu stroked his long beard and said slowly as he walked
"Maybe we're overthinking."
