Fortunately, there were no accidents along the way. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The holy drive passed through Linqing, through the section of the Huitong River all the way down to Zhangqiu Town, and then changed to a land route, through Dong'e, Pingyin, Feicheng, and came to Tai'an Prefecture, where Dongyue Taishan is located.

Like all the states of the Ming Dynasty, the supreme governor of Tai'an Prefecture is the Zhizhou.

Lin Feng, the governor of Wupin, had already learned the news that the Son of Heaven was coming to seal Zen, and he made the preparations to the extreme.

Not only Tai'an Prefecture, but also the entire Jinan Prefecture was mobilized, tens of thousands of people were recruited, and a temporary palace was built in Tai'an.

Although this palace is not as good as the leopard room, after all, it is much better than the ordinary governor and governor, and it is also in line with Zhu Houzhao's noble status.

The general patrol of the south and the north is not enough. This time, Zhu Houzhao is going to be specially sealed for Zen, and the details are very important.

The so-called sealing Zen is nothing more than building an altar with soil on the top of Mount Tai, and the Son of Heaven sacrifices heaven and earth to thank the wind and rain, and the country and the people are safe.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to show off merit.

What king doesn't want to be celebrated? But there are only nine emperors who really have the strength to do Mount Tai Feng Zen.

In the Ming generation, there was no king who carried out Mount Tai Feng Zen.

Zhu Houzhao was able to make the trip this time, and he really has to thank Xie Shen.

If it weren't for Xie Shen's implementation of so many new policies that completely changed the national fortunes of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houzhao would not have been qualified to come to Mount Tai anyway.

The sense of ritual of Mount Tai Feng Zen is very important, and it must be solemn and solemn, and no accidents are allowed.

Therefore, the preparations need to be done solidly, and after the arrival of the Son of Heaven, he did not immediately decide to climb the mountain and seal the Zen, but played around, and left enough time for his subordinates to prepare.

In addition to Xie Shen, the first assistant of the cabinet, and Gu Dingchen, the second assistant, there are also Tang Yin and Wang Shouren.

Since you want to seal Zen, you can't go too far, Junchen and his entourage still wander around Tai'an Prefecture to feel the customs of the land of Qilu as much as possible.

said that the wind was beautiful on this day, Zhu Houzhao temporarily took Xie Shen and others to take a stroll in the fields.

When he reached a grange, he was surrounded by a group of villagers carrying hoes.

The brocade guards drew their knives one after another, staring vigilantly at these reckless villagers who didn't know the height of the sky. The atmosphere is tense and large-scale conflict could erupt at any time.

Zhu Houzhao frowned, coughed and said, "Sir, you might as well ask, what's going on?" ”

He came to Mount Tai to seal Zen, but not to add to the blockage.

It hurts too much to be surrounded by your own subjects.

Xie Shen nodded, stepped forward and said, "Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, what are you doing here?" There must be a misunderstanding in this......"

"Misunderstanding fart! Dog officer, do you think that you have changed a group of people, and you don't know each other? ”

A sturdy man with a shirtless body and covered in tendons and flesh took a step forward and interrupted Xie Shen sharply.

"Little Pavilion Elder, do you want to go up to teach him a lesson."

Jin Yi Wei Qianhu Ji Wenyuan said attentively.

Xie Shen waved his hand and said, "Leave it to me." ”

After speaking, he took the initiative to step forward and said face to face with the sturdy man: "I'm afraid that this township party has recognized the wrong person, right?" We have just arrived in Tai'an, how can you possibly know us? ”

The sturdy man was stunned for a moment, and said in confusion: "Just arrived in Tai'an Prefecture? You're not from that dog's state? ”

Xie Shen spread his hands with a smile and said, "Of course not." ”

The sturdy man nodded and said, "The Sprinkle family's name is Wu An, and we are all from Wujiazhuang." I thought you were the dog officer's people, so I rushed out. There are many offenses, many offenses. ”

"Second master, what are you doing nonsense with them? The world is as black as a crow, and the officials of the Ming Dynasty are all the same, do you still expect them to help us call the shots? ”

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, his heart blossomed.

"Haha, you're really to the point. If there is any grievance, say it. Not yet ...... There's nothing I can't do. ”

Zhu Houzhao was young after all, and he was immediately interested when he heard that there was a grievance.

"Can you really call the shots for us?"

"It depends on whether you really have grievances."

Zhu Houzhao said lightly.

"Sir, sir, make the decision for us."

Wu An knelt down first, and then more than a hundred people knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao was very moved.

Although he is the Son of Heaven, countless courtiers above the Golden Palace push the golden mountain and bow to him, but it is all stylized. Today, it's a different story.

"Tell me about it."

"Master, you must not be a native of Tai'an, right? You don't know how shameless this Lord Zhizhou Lin Fenglin is. ”

Wu An gritted his teeth, eager to devour Lin Zhizhou alive.

"What's the shameless law?"

Zhu Houzhao's face gradually became solemn, and there was no trace of banter and laughter.

"Our Wujiazhuang has been burning bamboo charcoal for a living for generations, which has been the case since the Hongwu Dynasty, and it has been more than 100 years since today. We have never been short of paying taxes to the government and the court, so why should we seize our charcoal kilns. ”

Wu An clenched his fists tightly and roared hysterically: "Just because Emperor Lao Tzu wants to come to Mount Tai to seal Zen? Afraid that the smoke of the charcoal kiln will smoke the emperor Laozi? ”

Belch......

Zhu Houzhao was originally indignant when he heard it, but he was really embarrassed to be scolded with him later.

"Ahem, what does this have to do with today?"

"How it doesn't matter! If it weren't for the emperor Lao Tzu who wanted to come to Mount Tai to seal Zen, how could Gou Zhizhou seal the bamboo charcoal kiln. For them, sealing the kiln is a matter of one sentence. But for us in Wujiazhuang, it is not a way to live. We have been burning charcoal for generations, and we have no other skills to make a living. Isn't that pushing us to a dead end? ”

Zhu Houzhao had a black line on his face and was silent.

Although he didn't quite understand the relationship between burning bamboo charcoal and Taishan Feng Zen, he felt that Wu An's words were very reasonable.

"You said that Lin Zhizhou wants to seal your bamboo charcoal kiln, what is the reason?"

"Hey, there are two mouths under the official word, and the official wants to find a reason to seal the kiln."

Wu An was obviously very excited, and the green tendons on his face exploded.

"The dog official said that the bamboo charcoal fired in our kiln was of inferior quality, and it was like talking nonsense with his eyes open. The bamboo charcoal fired by our Wujiazhuang is not to mention in Tai'an, but it is one of the best in the entire Shandong Buzheng Division. Say that the bamboo charcoal we fired is of inferior quality...... The dog officer can figure it out! ”

Wu An felt that he and his people had been insulted, and cried loudly.

"How did you deal with this?"

"What else can be done? If he wants to seal the kiln, he will naturally work with him to the end. Our people in Wujiazhuang never cause trouble, but they are not afraid of it. No one wants to smear our faces for no reason. That dog official can't do it, and neither can the emperor Lao Tzu! ”

Wu An raised his eyebrows and said word by word.
