Section 044 Meichen White Crane
When Bai Minghe returned to the capital, when he solved the water supply in Bali 32 Village in Laishui County, he had already passed it back.
It was said that the white crane had a way to solve it, but now it is a real solution.
The Ministry of Industry reported to the point. Qingquan Mountain is built well, but it is too simple, some parts should be improved next winter, so that it can become a century-old project, especially the dam, which can be built higher and bigger, and several valves also need to be rebuilt, and you can control freely when the water is stopped.
At the moment, the white crane system zuò this, the valve can't be closed when it is opened.
If you want to stop the water, there is only one way, open the clay pipe at the top to deflate and let the siphon lose the water pressure.
However, these are not things that Bai Minghe is worried about, he came back this time and pulled back dozens of carts of matches, and it was time for him to start giving gifts to the homes of the Beijing officials.
Before doing the specific work, Bai Minghe wanted to enter the palace to ask for an order, which was the edict that Zhu Qiyu gave to hundreds of officials.
In the palace, Zhu Qiyu was about to have lunch, and when he heard that the white crane was coming, he gave the white crane a special gift to sit under the steps and give the royal banquet. What an honor.
During the meal, Zhu Qiyu said casually: "This spring, it is the first time I have personally cultivated, and I am very happy to hear about Governor Bai in Qingquan." Agriculture is the foundation of a country, and it is also the foundation of our Ming Dynasty. Da Cai went to inquire, your reservoir can add at least 50,000 stone of grain to Laishui County every year, which is a great achievement. ”
Bai Minghe hurriedly got up: "At first, the minister only wanted to solve some of his own troubles, but who thought that things would become more and more tricky. The minister was just lucky to do this thing, and seeing the villagers happy, the minister also felt very warm in his heart, after all, it was a good deed. The ministers did not dare to take credit, and thousands of fathers and elders in 32 villages in Bali worked hard for a month to have today's Qingquan Mountain! ”
Zhu Qiyu smiled and nodded, at least Bai Minghe didn't talk nonsense.
He sent someone to investigate this qiē, and the matter was just like what Bai Minghe said, it was escalated step by step Finally, Bai Minghe was a little crazy when he was young, so he let go of his courage to take this matter, no matter what, the result was a success.
"Bai Aiqing." Zhu Qiyu unexpectedly changed his name, and Bai Minghe's heart tightened.
I only heard Zhu Qiyu ask: "This is the first time I have personally cultivated, what does Bai Aiqing think!" ”
Bai Minghe was a little stunned, and Gonggong Cai explained quietly and quickly beside Bai Minghe very interestingly.
Bai Minghe understood, the change of the civil fort was autumn, and then something big happened, and now when this Daizong ascended the throne, it was already past spring ploughing. So this is the first time.
Gonggong Cai explained in detail some arrangements of the Ministry of Rites.
Zhu Qiyu just ate his lunch unhurriedly, glancing at Bai Minghe's reaction from time to time.
Bai Minghe finally understood, this emperor wanted to be brilliant.
To put it more bluntly, Bai Minghe just built a reservoir and asked thousands of people to set up an immortal card for him. Zhu Qiyu is the emperor, he wants more, what he wants now is the hearts of the people. After all, there is something wrong with him, the emperor, and the emperor is still under house arrest in the South Palace.
After thinking about it for a while, Shirakawa was about to speak.
"Bai Aiqing, if you have a good idea, tell me in the study." After that, he asked Gonggong Cai to give a few dishes to Bai Minghe.
This dish is really good, but the white crane eats it is not a taste.
Eating in front of the emperor is very stressful, and you should pay attention to this eating appearance, and you can't have a few chopsticks in a row if it's delicious.
After lunch, South Den.
"Hooray. Chancellor has an idea! "Shira-naka Crane has already thought about it on the way here." Start with the altar of mountains and rivers! ”
The mountain and river altar is the ancestral agricultural altar of later generations. Bai Minghe also learned from listening to Cai Gonggong that there is no Xiannongtan yet. The current mountain and river altar was built only 30 years ago. The white cranes of the Xiannongtan in later generations have also been there, and they have also listened to the tour guide explain the emperor's personal cultivation, which is very different from what Cai Gonggong said just now.
According to Shira's idea, it must have been improved later.
Especially at the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, this improvement was even greater and became more gorgeous.
"Tell me, I believe in you." Daizong Zhu Qiyu said again that I believe in you. Bai Minghe didn't know what he meant by this to trust, or whether he believed that he had a good idea.
"Long live, the minister thought that he would change the name of the mountain and river altar first. Then a large hall will be built, and a special office will be set up. This name, the minister thinks, is called Xiannongtan! ”
After Bai Minghe finished speaking, Zhu Qiyu did not answer immediately, and after thinking for a while, Zhu Qiyu smiled: "Go and pass it on to read." Give Bai Aiqing a few snacks. ”
"Long live thanks!" The white-named crane hurriedly saluted.
When Gonggong Cai went out to spread the word, he secretly gave Bai Minghe a thumbs up.
Soon, Cheng Jing arrived. After giving the salute, Zhu Qiyu asked Bai Minghe to say it again.
After listening to this, Cheng Jing said: "Long live the old slave thinks that Governor Bai is clever in this strategy. Xiannong is one of the gods of the Six Kingdoms, known as the Emperor Society in history, and was called Xiannong in the Han Dynasty. That is, Shennong the Great. Changing the mountain and river altar to the first agricultural altar, plus the main hall of sacrifice, and the special sacrificial office, this is telling the people that long live the importance of agriculture. ”
Zhu Qiyu nodded with satisfaction, and Cheng Jing also said yes, then it's really good.
"At least the main hall can be built after this year's long live ploughing, this meaning must be good to release it first. I just don't know, what better is Governor Bai? ”
"Bai Aiqing will talk about it again!" Zhu Qiyu's tone was already full of joy.
Bai Minghe got up: "Long live, in the regulations given by the Ministry of Rites." Only long live the plow, this is not enough. The minister thought that he should invite the famous and virtuous old man of Shuntianfu to come to the cattle, and then choose the very famous filial son to assist Banzai to help the plough on the side. This also reflects the love for the people, and will govern the country with benevolence and filial piety, and put the people's agricultural affairs in the first place. ”
"Good, good, good!" After all, Zhu Qiyu is only twenty-two years old, which sounds like he feels great.
Cheng Jing also echoed on the side: "Governor Bai said this, and the old slave also thought it was excellent. ”
"Go on!" Zhu Qiyu was really interested.
"Agriculture alone is not enough, Taizu has training, and talks about rejuvenating agriculture. The people have food to eat and clothes to wear, this is the prosperous age! Bai Minghe's words made Zhu Qiyu a little stunned.
He had heard of Xingnong, but he didn't remember talking about Xingnong.
Bai Minghe didn't pay attention to Daizong Zhu Qiyu's reaction, and just continued to speak.
"The queen is the mother of the country, pick some mulberry leaves and sprinkle them on the silkworm plate. By the way, I also give some filial daughters some chances, of course, this opportunity can also be given to some noble ladies. ”
Cheng Jing smiled slightly, he could tell that this was a bit utilitarian.
But it is also good to build yì, sometimes women can do big things, for example, some lords can communicate with the queen with those noble ladies, which can be regarded as a means of wooing.
The white crane only mentioned one important point.
Cheng Jing added enough details, such as how the clothes should be worn, and what criteria the person should choose. What kind of wood should be used for the plow, how big the field should be, how many times the emperor would have to go back and forth, and so on.
In the end, Cheng Jing's legato was written, and only Bai Minghe signed it.
"Governor Bai, this matter naturally can't be mentioned by Banzai on his own initiative, you can hand this over to the cabinet. It is then reported to the court in an official manner. Cheng Jing handed the notebook to Bai Minghe.
Bai Minghe asked very quietly: "Director Cheng, do you need me to copy this again?" ”
Cheng Jing smiled and shook his head.
Bai Minghe understood, took the recital with both hands, and after Zhu Qiyu agreed, he retreated and left the study.
Cheng Jing's word, these cabinet members must know, this shows that it has to be done. The recital written by Cheng Jing represents the meaning of the Ming Emperor. If anyone in the cabinet can't even understand this, this official will be in vain.
Shira-nae left the study and went to the cabinet office.
Zhu Qiyu said to Cheng Jing: "This white-named crane is a talent. ”
"I'm afraid that after tomorrow's court meeting, many people will scold him for being a courtier." Cheng Jing replied truthfully.
"Is that white crane a mechant?" Zhu Qiyu also asked rhetorically.
Cheng Jing shook his head: "If you go back to Long live, some people will only look at the surface. They just knew that it was the white-named crane's use to flatter Banzai. But I don't know that the Son of Heaven can make the people more stable when he wins the hearts of the people, so the villain is jealous, and the real courtiers are those who vote for the world's favor, but don't care about the world's ministers! ”
"If you become a reader, you will have an arm!"
"The old slave doesn't dare, the old slave only knows how to serve long live with all his heart and do his duty. Long live the white crane! ”
In the face of Cheng Jing's self-humility, Zhu Qiyu did not comment again, but just signaled that he could go down to rest, but in his heart he was looking forward to the face of the hundred officials of the court meeting tomorrow.
At the court meeting, Bai Minghe didn't even enter the palace gate, and he had already left the transcript in the cabinet yesterday.
After Chen Xun handed over the notebook, he asked a little eunuch to read it under the pretext that his throat was uncomfortable these days. When the little eunuch was reading, the corners of Chen Xun's eyes kept sweeping over several important ministers in the court.
Suddenly, a Ministry of Rites official jumped out.
"Long live, the white crane is a charming villain, long live must not listen to this person's construction?"
"Meichen?" Gao Gu walked out slowly and gave a salute to Daizong Zhu Qiyu: "Long live, the minister doesn't understand." The white name crane was built at three points to build a sacrificial hall for the Emperor Shennong, which was a request to bless the income of the fields. Long live the cultivation himself, and choose the son of the old man and the filial name. This is the work of educating the world, how can it be flattered. ”
"Long live the world, and it is our merit to educate the people......" The official of the Ministry of Rites was dumbfounded, and he frightened himself.
