On the twenty-seventh day of the first month of the third year of Daming Jingtai, the fleet of the white crane has entered Hangzhou Bend.

All the qualified generals in the seven provinces south of the Yangtze River have already arrived in Hangzhou City. The seven provinces in the south of the Yangtze River are: Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Hunan, Hubei, Anhui, Jiangsu, and Fujian.

In addition to the seven provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, the Guangdong Metropolitan Division, the Sichuan Provincial Division, the Shaanxi Provincial Division, and the Shandong Provincial Division all sent important officials to come.

Compared to these people, the Nanjing Military Department has no identity, all they can do is organize these sacrificial ceremonies, if they go on a business trip, they will really die. Even if Bai Minghe didn't kill people, the eunuchs in Dongchang would try their best to find trouble for them, you must know that for these people in Dongchang, Yue Fei was like their ancestor.

At this time, the Yuewang Temple was different from that of later generations.

Covering an area of 390 acres, this size is based on Yue Fei's age, thirty-nine years old. It is divided into three main halls on both sides of one square and ninety-nine small halls.

The bronze statue of Yue Fei on the main hall was immediately placed, and only the plaque was about to be hung.

On one side of the main hall on both sides is the ancient martyr's hall, which enshrines the patriotic generals of the past dynasties. Bai Minghe's only regret is that there is no Bai Qi in this, because the civil officials strongly oppose it, killing the god is killing the god, you Bai Minghe has something to build a military temple, and you will definitely put your family Bai Qi into it.

But the Yuewang Temple is not good, this is the Hero Temple.

On the other side, there are two very special portraits of the Ming martyrs in addition to the founding martyrs.

One was the old British Duke Zhang Fu, who tried to persuade the northern expedition to no avail, and died in the battle of Tumubao. Placing his portrait here, Bai Minghe won the favor of almost 90% of the generals in one fell swoop, and it made the little British Gong Zhang Mao a diehard loyalty to Bai Minghe.

The other is still alive, with no standing statue, only an immortal tablet.

Yu Qian, the current secretary of the military department of the Ming Dynasty, Yu Qian opposed this matter. But it's useless, the Ming Emperor stood up for two reasons in this matter. First, Yu Qian defended the Jingshi, which is a great credit. The second is that without Yu Qian, there would be no Zhu Qiyu's throne, so Emperor Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty allowed this immortal tablet.

And the statue is also made zuò, so Yu Qian kept it.

Yu Qianxin said that his life was worth it. After death, let alone a standing statue, it is also an honor for thousands of years to bury your bones in the Yuewang Temple.

In front of the main gate, stone sheep, stone horses, stone soldiers, and stone Zhongweng.

The plaque at the main entrance is the handwritten book of Emperor Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty, the Martyrs' Temple.

The small hall at the back is the small hall of the heroes and martyrs of the Yue family army, counting the countless heroes of the Yue family army.

On the twenty-eighth day, the white crane has come to the Yuewang Temple, of course, the white crane is called the Yuewang Temple, which was also called when it was originally built. However, the Ming Emperor's handwritten martyr's temple, the name here is not important, the important thing is that it is enshrined here that Yue Wangye.

Bai Minghe and his entourage, there are more than 20 second-grade officials alone, and more than 100 third-grade officials.

"According to legend, there is a thousand-year-old cypress next to the Fengbo Pavilion, and the tree died after King Yue died in the Fengbo Pavilion. But it is immortal for four hundred years, and these days I receive some incense every day. The color is the better. Sun Yuanzhen introduced on the side.

But the white crane said: "This tree is 120 million years old. ”

All of them stared at the white crane, and they didn't understand how the white crane could be so clear. 120 million years?

The white crane knew that the number he said was absolutely not wrong, this was scientifically based in later generations, and the white crane just felt it, and reached out and touched it lightly on the cypress tree: "Protect it, you must protect it!" Legend has it that this cypress tree is stuck to the blood of King Yue, as long as it is protected. Ten thousand years of immortality! ”

Later generations of white-named cranes have not seen this cypress tree with their own eyes, only related pictures.

In the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom era of the Qing Dynasty, the original tree was destroyed, which can be said to be a very big regret, so when Bai Minghe saw this cypress tree with his own eyes. It's going to make people destroy this cypress.

Needless to say, neither the army nor the people of Dongchang will let people destroy this tree.

Not to mention the tree that has lived for 120 million years, it is the one that sticks to the blood of King Yue, and whoever dares to touch this tree will definitely let Dongchang peel its skin.

On the twenty-ninth day of the first lunar month, the four-day festival begins. The four days are ritual sacrifices, cultural sacrifices, martial sacrifices, and common people's sacrifices.

The first day of the ritual is a grand one-day ritual according to the ancient rites. After the sacrificial text, there is a plaque, Yu Qian's hand, and I return the cursive script of the rivers and mountains. For these four words, Yu Qian tried to write a thousand times, and the last time was that Yu Qian was very tired, after dancing the sword in the courtyard, the person entered a state of mental trance, as if he had seen the iron-blooded years, and it was made with one stroke.

Then the white crane untied the Zhan Lu offering and placed it in front of the table, and the sword would be placed here for a month.

The ritual sacrifice is Takaya's forte, don't look at the fact that he has only been here for two days, but the sacrificial ceremony is very grand.

The next day, the white crane placed a hundred taels of gold in front of the door, whether it was poetry, lyrics, songs, or fu. Only if you take the first name, there will be a gold hundred taels of color, and there is only one content written, that is, King Yue.

On the third day, the martial arts festival is not just a competition. Bai Minghe let these 100,000 soldiers, with thousands of people as a team, first compare the formation, and then compare the match, the final victory and defeat is really killed, in order to compete for the first place, tens of thousands of people were lightly injured, and dozens of people were seriously injured, and no one wanted to lose in front of Yue Wang Temple.

On the last day, the ban was lifted. Nearly a million people used incense to turn Fangyuan Shili into a fog area.

For these four days, the white-named crane gave it to the sergeants and the people. 500,000 stone was consumed for grain, 50,000 stone for various kinds of meat, 100,000 yuan for copper coins, and 1,000 quintals of cloth.

This is not considered an incense candle, just incense, and half a boat is pulled.

For four consecutive days, the white crane stood alone on the side of the main hall, staring blankly at the statue of King Yue.

No one understands what the white crane is doing.

Bai Minghe was thinking, Yue Fei was fighting for protection, so in another era, would Yue Fei fly and fight for the expansion of the Great Song Dynasty? On this issue, Bai Minghe thought about it for four days.

It wasn't until the evening of the fourth day, when all the governors came here to offer incense sticks for the last time, Xu Chengzong asked Bai Minghe: "Bai Minghe, what have you realized in the past few days?" ”

"What era makes what kind of heroes. It is not the heroes who make the times, but the times that make the heroes. Thinking about the two of Han and Weihuo, they fought for the defense of their homes, but they also fought for the expansion of the territory of the Han Dynasty. Who can say they are not heroes? And King Yue, it was very difficult to protect his homeland in that era, and if he really had the opportunity, I believe that King Yue would also go north. It can be said that the reconquest of lost territory can also be said to be a battle to expand the territory of the Southern Song Dynasty. ”

This is also the first time that the white crane has seriously thought about life.

Hearing Bai Minghe say this, Yang Neng, the governor of Guangdong, said: "Actually, Wu Anjun is also a hero. There is nothing wrong with him killing God, but there is nothing wrong with him killing, and he may not be able to do it if he is the governor, you must know that killing prisoners will be scolded for thousands of years. This is not because you are a crane, but from the heart of the governor. A general who spares his life for Daqin, and even does not hesitate to honor and disgrace, how can he not be called a hero, Wu Anjun doesn't even want a reputation for Daqin, isn't he a hero? ”

Shiramei Crane smiled, and after laughing, he fainted.

Standing here stupidly for four days, even if I go back to rest at night, but I stand here every day and think like crazy, both physically and mentally consumed greatly, and I will faint as soon as my heart is relaxed.

Is it stupid?

At least in the eyes of the Ming people, this is a piety, here is the Yue Wang Temple, the Martyrs Temple, the Heroes Temple. If you can realize anything here, it is a gift from God. Instead of anyone laughing at Bai Minghe being stupid, many people will envy him.

The Yuewang Temple was built, and the grand sacrifice began to spread to the entire Ming Dynasty from the Shang Gang.

No one said anything back, whether it was officials, generals or ordinary people, they all applauded in unison, heroes will always be loved.

When Bai Minghe woke up, it was already two days later, and he had already returned to Nanjing, which was not close to Nanjing, and it would take a day and a half to walk by water.

After Bai Minghe woke up, the first person to appear next to him was Wang Cheng.

"My lord, there is a little trouble in the place where we live now. Nanjing City is the capital, and it is very prosperous here, so it is not easy to find a suitable house, and we need a lot of people. Therefore, Wei Guogong renovated the three originally closed gardens and let you live. In these three gardens, 200,000 soldiers and horses can be stationed, and even the barracks are ready-made. Wang Cheng has been waiting for Bai Minghe to wake up, just to tell Bai Minghe the news.

Bai Minghe rubbed his somewhat sour neck, and was already half awake.

"What were these three gardens originally?"

"They are the Xuanwu Lake Forbidden Garden, the Ancient Forest Garden, and the Zhongshan Courtyard. The Xuanwu Lake Forbidden Garden was originally a royal garden, and the reason given by Wei Guogong was that it was possible to train the navy here, so the seal was opened. The ancient forest garden is after 800 years, experienced many dynasties, and is a forbidden army garden. The capital of the Ming Dynasty moved north, and it was idle here, and the 200,000 military camps were here. The last place, Zhongshan Annex, is a forbidden area within a forbidden area. When Wang Cheng mentioned Zhongshan Villa, his tone changed.

Bai Minghe turned over and sat up: "Is it so?" ”

Bai Minghe remembered that he had been to the Ming Tomb in later generations, and it was in Zhongshan.

Wang Cheng took a few steps back, called two guards in, and opened a map in front of Bai Minghe.

Bai Minghe looked at the map, and said in his heart that Xu Chengzong was helping himself or harming himself, the circle drawn by the red line is the territory drawn for himself, the entire Xuanwu Lake, Zhongshan, and the triangle between the two places are called the ancient forest garden, not to mention, there are more than 3,000 hectares of Huangzhuang fields outside Nanjing.

"My lord, the cordon is three miles. That is to say, the actual place is larger than this map, and the place where the adults now live is called the White Horse Pavilion of Xuanwu Lake, and less than three miles to the south is where the Nanjing Imperial Palace is located. Less than four miles to the southwest is the six yamen, and ten miles to the west is the yamen of the governor of the five armies in Nanjing and the armory. ”

The place is a good place, but how much trouble will it be to live here?

Wang Cheng put away the map and took out another box: "My lord, there is one more trouble. Here is the military symbol, to control the Nanjing Wangjun Governor's Mansion and the military affairs of the seven provinces south of the Yangtze River. Originally, it was the book of the Nanjing Military Department, and it was kept by Xu Chengzong, the Duke of Wei, who guarded the town of Nanjing. There is another incident, the subordinates cut off the head of the eunuch guarding Nanjing this morning. (To be continued......)

PS: I'm so nervous, so scared. There are fewer and fewer people chasing orders, so I'm afraid.
