Tianjin produces salt, but also more saline-alkali land.

The mass grave is in the eastern suburbs of Tianjin, surrounded by cultivated land, only that one is seriously salinized.

Ancient Chinese peasants had already figured out ways to improve salinized soil. As far as the surrounding area of Tianjin is concerned, it is to level the land, plough the dry and dig ditches for drainage, which can not only allow the rain to wash away the saline-alkali components in the soil, but also effectively prevent the soil from re-alkalizing.

But the effect is very slow, and it often takes years, more than ten years, or even decades to become a good land.

The bones in the mass grave have all been landfilled, and it is impossible to tell which one belongs to the former emperor and his wife. Patches of saplings are transported and planted, built with guest soil, and ditches are left in the middle to drain water, and fresh water is usually transported by special personnel to irrigate.

It is said to be a cemetery, but it is actually enough to choke.

Keep watering, keep planting, and it will take at least twenty years for this saline land to become a forest.

The tomb is empty, not even a well-dressed mound, only the joint burial inscription and the tomb priest, showing the prominent identity of the tomb owner.

There is even a stone tablet next to it, and the front is: "The mausoleum of the first emperor, the empty tomb is not a thief." The north side is densely engraved with words, describing the drought in the first year of Chongzhen, the emperor fled with his family, the first emperor died in Tianjin, and the corpse was left in the mass grave and could not be identified.

On the other side not far away, there is a large tomb erected, and the tombstone is: The tomb of the mourners in the world.

On the back of the tombstone, it is recorded that during the Chongzhen period, natural disasters and man-made disasters continued, and many people died in chaos. This tomb and this monument are erected for the poor people who died in troubled times, and I hope that the world of Shenzhou will be too peaceful and stable from now on.

Since the bones of the first emperor and the first queen could not be found, there was naturally no need to defend them tightly.

If one day, the Datong Imperial Court is about to end, and I am not afraid that someone will come to dig up the dragon vein, let alone dig up the bones and whip the corpse to the sun.

Only some mausoleum guards are arranged, and it is enough to sprinkle and worship every day, and tourists can also come in to worship. Even outside the mausoleum, there is a roadside pavilion for visitors to rest and enjoy the coolness.

No monks, no Taoists.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites who accompanied the royal car on the northern tour went to the cemetery in advance to make arrangements. The gods of the first emperor and the first queen were invited from the Nanjing Taimiao Temple and placed in the main building of the cemetery, and the heaven, earth and local gods were invited to bless them.

In the end, Zhao Han wore the emperor's gown and brought the royal family and clan relatives to the scene.

The solemn and mournful music sounded, and Zhao Han, under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, carefully completed every step, and finally knelt down and kowtowed in front of the grave.

"Father, mother, daughter is not filial!"

Zhao Zhenlan cried the most, because she was already sensible because of the separation. And Zhao Zhenfang, who is still young, even forgot the appearance of his parents, and only vaguely remembered that his father liked to brush his beard.

Zhao Han kowtowed upright, and when he stood up, he was relaxed, as if he had finished a matter on his mind.

Back in Tianjin, Zhao Han said to his sister and sister: "After staying a little longer, I found the same clan in Liaodong and is rushing to Tianjin with my family tree. ”

In the next few days, Zhao Han was meeting with magistrates and elders.

Finally, a middle-aged man surnamed Zhao came from Liaodong on a ship.

After meeting, Zhao Zhenlan immediately recognized this person and shouted with some excitement: "You are the fifth brother of the main family?" ”

The middle-aged man's name was Zhao Fang, his eyes were red, and he said, "Meet the eldest princess!" ”

In fact, the two don't have any deep feelings, they just belong to the same clan and the same village.

The first emperor Zhao Shilang had a good reputation, and he also received the help of the main sect at the beginning. But it costs a lot to see a doctor for the old mother, and the family also needs to be supported, so the master gradually became impatient, and even beat Zhao Shilang, who borrowed money, out.

Zhao Fang wiped his tears and told what happened over the years:

"During the Chongzhen period, there were many droughts in successive years, and there were many people fleeing the famine in our village, but there was not much surplus food on the side of the Zhao family."

"That damn Tartar, I have been robbed several times in the customs, and our village has suffered time and time. My eldest brother and third brother's whole family were taken away by the Tartars because they couldn't take refuge, and they still don't know the whereabouts of life and death......"

"Tartar is gone, and Li Chuang is coming again. Li Chuang didn't loot on a large scale, and was a good emperor for a month or two. But Li Chuang suffered a defeat, the team behind the palace was chased and killed by the Tartars, and the discipline of those routed soldiers was corrupted, and our village was robbed. Li Chuang broke the soldiers and left, and the Tartar soldiers chased after him. ”

"Those are not Tartar soldiers, they are all Ming border troops who have voted for Tartars. They didn't have enough food for the army, so they forced the big families in the village to give them food, and if they couldn't get food, they would kill people......"

"In these few military disasters, most of the fathers and elders in the village have fled, and there are only a few left in the Zhao family. Then the Tartar was the emperor, and there was a shortage of people in the county, so I had passed the examination and was familiar with the local situation, so I went to apply for the job as the master of the Tartar county. Nazhi County is actually also a Han person, and he is more ruthless than the Ming official master. Especially when fighting with the Datong army, officials were sent to the countryside every day to urge food. ”

"All the peasants in our village have run away, and the tenants have run away if they can't pay the rent. At that time there was still a plague, and I did not know where to flee, and many of them died of disease on the way. ”

"Later, even the magistrate's money was no longer issued, and the officials themselves found ways to make a living. The magistrate of the county is more and more exploiting the people, even if he is a big family in the city, he can't bear to run for his family. At least seventy or eighty percent of the people in the city died of the plague, those who fled, and those who starved to death. The county seat has become an empty city in the blink of an eye. ”

"There is no one to plant the land in the village, and there is no food harvest from the drought every year anyway. The price of food in the city has skyrocketed, and I, the master of the county, really can't afford to buy food to fill my stomach, and I watched my young son starve to death......"

"Later, the Tartars were going to withdraw outside the Guan, and the magistrate followed. I dare not stay, to stay is to die, and the silver and food are long gone. I went to Zhixian County and took my family with me. There is a huge Zhao family, and there are only four people left who go to the gate with the Tartars. There was no goods to take away, and in addition to the house, furniture, and bedding, there was only a room of books. ”

"The books were all left, and the ancestors could not forget them, so they brought a complete set of genealogies to Liaodong...... When I went home to get my family tree, there were only 12 families left in the village, and half of them were too hungry to walk. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Fang howled and cried: "Woo woo...... What a good village, the ancestors have been around for hundreds of years, and if they say no, they will be gone. ”

No wonder Zhao Fang was so excited to see Zhao Zhenlan, with his kind of encounter, even when he saw his former enemies, he would have a feeling of meeting his old acquaintance in a foreign country.

Zhao Han was silent when he listened, this is what the people in the north experienced.

Zhao Fang is still the young master of the landlord's family, and he is also a scholar who was admitted to Xiucai. If you are an ordinary person, it will only be worse!

The Manchus had to leave Hebei at that time, because during the Chongzhen period, Hebei was a mess. After the Manchu Qing Dynasty came, they stook land around the capital, and the more peripheral states and counties were exploited, and the people's livelihood had withered. In this case, the double negative buffs of Drought and Plague are also stacked.

If the Manchus didn't leave, why did they stay in Hebei?

Zhao Han was silent, the two princesses, and the concubine, but they wiped tears from their eyes.

Real male and female tears.

Zhao Han asked, "Did you bring the Zhao family tree?" ”

Zhao Fang stopped crying, nodded and said, "Brought it." Our Zhao family, the distant ancestor is Boyi, the ancestor surnamed Zhao is the father, and the surname Ying from the pre-Qin dynasty is ......"

Zhao Han, who was silent just now, just wanted to roll his eyes at this time.

This Nima, the three emperors and the five emperors are here, thinking with their heels, they all know that the genealogy is purely made up.

Finally, Zhao Fang said something more reliable: "Our branch is from the Zhao family of Tianshui Hall." After Qin destroyed Zhao, the distant ancestors moved to Tianshui, Gansu, and Zhao Gong, who was the marquis of the Han Dynasty, was our ancestor. ”

Zhao Han asked, "It has nothing to do with Zhao Kuangyin of the Song family, right?" ”

Zhao Fang was stunned for a moment, and replied: "Your Majesty, everyone in the world surnamed Zhao recognizes Tianshui Hall as a sect. This Song Dynasty is also known as the 'Tianshui Dynasty'. ”

Zhao Han: "......"

Zhao Fang has experienced so many hardships, and he has long learned to observe words and feelings, and he has already seen that Zhao Han does not want to have anything to do with Zhao Kuangyin. He hurriedly said: "Subdivided, it's definitely not one." Zhao Kuangyin is the Zhao family of Zhuozhou, and our ancestors, the Tang and Song dynasties, have always lived in Shanxi. Later, the Song and Yuan dynasties were in turmoil, and only then did they migrate to Beizhili in the early Ming Dynasty. These are clearly written on the genealogy, and there is certainly no mistake. ”

Compiling a royal family tree is also a very important thing.

Before the Ming Dynasty, emperors liked to put gold on their faces. For example, Zhao Kuangyin said that he was from the Tianshui Zhao family, and he didn't know if it was true, or he was forced to move closer to the famous family.

Until Zhu Yuanzhang, the sentence "Yu Benhuai right cloth".

Lao Tzu was born as a grass people, and Lao Tzu has no noble ancestors. Why are you biting me?

Zhao Han said: "The Zhao family tree is left, and I will have someone copy it for you." ”

Zhao Fang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, even if you take it, the Zhao family is scattered, the genealogy can be provided to the royal family, which can make the Zhao family prosperous, and the ancestors must be pleased in the spirit of the sky." ”

Zhao Han thought for a while and said, "You stay in Tianjin, settle down in the fields for you, and guard the eastern suburbs cemetery for generations." Of course, only one person needs to be left in each generation to guard the tomb, and this person can receive money in the government. The rest of the children and grandchildren are free to choose their careers. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhao Fang said happily.

He didn't think that most of his relatives were scattered, and he was lucky to be able to guard the tomb of the emperor. can divide the land, can receive wages, and life is finally stable. He still has a wife and a son alive, so he just needs to live honestly.

Moreover, guarding the tomb of the former emperor, no one will dare to bully him.

Zhao Han called Li Xiangjun and asked her to draw up a holy decree and send it back to Nanjing for Li Banghua to receive. The general content is to clear up the relationship with the Song family, the royal family genealogy has been found, and he is not the descendant of Zhao Kuangyin's brothers.

Save the folk from making up stories in a mess, and it will be annoying to watch.

Zhao Fang suddenly said: "Your Majesty, does the ancestral tomb of our hometown need to be repaired?" ”

Zhao Han waved his hand: "It's okay to repair, you don't have to do it deliberately, and you can't all fence it off to build an ancestral mausoleum." Let the land be left to the people to cultivate. ”

Zhao Fang said: "Please allow the grass people to go back to their hometown every year to worship their ancestors and sweep the tombs." His Majesty's ancestral grave will also be taken care of by the grass people. ”

"That's right."

Zhao Han asked people to take another hundred taels of silver and asked Zhao Fang to settle his family in the eastern suburbs of Tianjin.

Zhao Zhenlan had a lot of words and wanted to catch up with this brother, and the two chatted until the evening. At dinner, Zhao Zhenlan's eyes were red, and she obviously cried again because of sadness.

Immediately, Zhao Zhenlan took her husband to return to her hometown to sweep the tomb and worship her ancestors on behalf of the emperor.
