Chapter 408: Mount Tai seals the Zen

The Mid-Autumn Festival is celebrated by the whole country.

With the successive victories of the Ming Dynasty in foreign wars, the current atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty has caught up with the Han and Tang Dynasties, and after changing the basic national policy of Taizu to ban the sea, overseas trade has made domestic commerce thriving.

The full range of promotion of treasure banknotes allowed the Ming to plunder a large amount of materials, gold and silver.

In addition, Zhu Jianji's forcible industrialization in China has greatly stimulated domestic demand, provided jobs, and promoted the development of the industry, and the people's lives have surpassed those of the rich Song Dynasty.

It is because every festival in the Ming Dynasty is a happy day.

However, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, Gyeonggi City has lost a bit of official morale, which is a celebration for ordinary people, because the high-ranking officials of Gyeonggi are not in the city.

They all went to Shandong.

According to the arrangement of Emperor Jingtai of the Ming Dynasty, the civil and military officials who were able to handle Gyeonggi, as well as the commanders of the local capital divisions and the left and right political envoys of the political envoys of various places, all rushed to Shandong.

Full flood.

When such a teacher is so enthusiastic to Shandong, there is only one place that can withstand such treatment.

Tarzan.

None of the Confucian Mansions are eligible.

What to do is also a grand event that the Central Plains Dynasty has not had for many years.

Tarzan seals Zen!

What is the practical significance of Mount Tai's sealing Zen?

The Han Dynasty Bangu "White Tiger Tongyi" said: "The king is ordered, and the surname is changed, and he will be promoted to Mount Tai." What? The righteousness of the teachings also. At the time of the first order, the restructuring should be heavenly, the world was peaceful, and things became sealed Zen, so as to tell the peace. ”

"The Five Classics of General Righteousness" says: "The mandate of heaven is the king, so that the people are born, sue for peace in the sky, and repay the merits of the gods." ”

Therefore, Mount Tai Feng Chan actually only has a pure political purpose, indicating that the emperor was ordered by the king to the sky, to tell the heavens peace, to express gratitude for the merit of protection, and the focus is to report how the emperor's political achievements are prominent.

"White Tiger Tongyi" said: "Therefore, those who are promoted to the seal will also increase their height; The foundation of the father of the lower Zen Liang is also broad and thick; Those who engrave the stone number will focus on their own merits to self-efficacy. Heaven to high respect, the earth to thick for the virtue, so increase the height of Mount Tai to report the sky, attached to the Liang father's Lu to repay the earth, tomorrow the earth's order, the success of the success, beneficial to the heaven and earth, if the high one is higher, the thick one is thicker. ”

And "White Tiger Tongyi" and "Rites and Justice" are also cloudy: "If you sacrifice to the sky, you will burn firewood, and the sky will be the sun; Sacrifice to the ground, the paralyzed, and the moon also. ”

Therefore, to be more ethereal, the various purposes and symbols of Mount Tai's Feng Zen all contain a deeper layer of consciousness: when communicating with heaven and man, coordinate the relationship between heaven, earth, god and man, so that they can achieve the harmony and unity of spiritual will and external behavior.

In fact, this is all forcibly attached to the meaning.

For the emperor, Taishan Fengzen has one purpose: Lao Tzu's political achievements are beautiful, and he needs a stage to tell the people of the world and let the history books record it.

However, since Song Zhenzong, the Central Plains Dynasty has no longer held Mount Tai Feng Zen.

Jingtai's twenty-year Feng Zen has another meaning.

Zen position.

Twenty years, under the dedication and selfless dedication of the Prince of Daming, our Emperor Jingtai has caught enough of his martial arts to leave a name in history, and it is time to be content.

In fact, since the turmoil in Shiheng, Zhu Qiyu has the idea of Zen.

However, the crown prince was young at that time.

At that time, Zhu Qiyu's Zen position was a bit like Song Huizong's meaning - my ability is limited, and I can't do this country, so leave the mess to the prince to clean up.

As a result, the prince will be able to operate like a tiger, as he gets older, as soon as various measures come out, Daming immediately embarked on a new path, and Zhu Qiyu saw the hope of leaving a name in history.

So I didn't want to Zen anymore.

And about this matter, the prince did not complain.

took great pains to give his father Bo a martial arts that was comparable to any Zhongxing king.

Of course, Zhu Qiyu is also worthy.

Over the years, Zhu Jianji has presided over various reform matters, and trivial matters related to people's livelihood and political affairs have all been handled by Zhu Qiyu alone, and he is visibly tired enough.

So in this regard, Zhu Jianji also takes it for granted.

The relationship between these two fathers and sons is more harmonious than any pair of sons of heaven and princes in history.

The prince threw a peach, and the son of heaven reported Li.

With the Ming Dynasty pacifying the Jurchens in one fell swoop and establishing the Northeast Chengxuan Political Envoy Department in the territory of the Jurchens, Zhu Qiyu, as the king of the dynasty, although his cultural and martial arts were not as good as Yongle and Taizu, but they were properly revived.

surpassed the second emperor Renxuan.

Well......

It's actually a bit controversial.

There is no doubt about surpassing Xuanzong, but whether it surpasses Renzong, strictly speaking, is not conclusive, because the Yongle prosperous era created by Taizong, Renzong, who was the crown prince at that time, made great contributions.

Without Renzong's auxiliary governance, where did Zhu Di get the capital for the five Northern Expeditions.

It can be said that Zhu Di exhausted his eldest son to death.

Far from it.

The Mid-Autumn Festival of Jingtai 20 years, the first time after the founding of the Ming Dynasty held a ceremony to seal the Zen, after that, it is the Son of Heaven Zen position, and it is very likely that after the Zen seal, it will be decreed to announce the Zen position of the world.

After that, everyone rushed back to Gyeonggi to hold the crown prince's enthronement ceremony.

And then it will be Shandong.

Because Zhu Qiyu told the Ministry of Rites that he would hold two Zen Sealing Ceremony this year - it is indeed a bit abnormal, there has been no Zen Sealing Ceremony for many years, but he will hold Taishan Zen Sealing Ceremony twice in the same year.

However......

From the head of the hundred officials to the folk scholars, no one thinks this move is unreasonable.

Jingtai Emperor Zen position, worthy of a Mount Tai seal Zen.

The crown prince's accession to the throne is more worthy of a Mount Tai consecration.

According to the will of Emperor Jingtai, the Ministry of Rites prepared these two Mount Tai Feng Zen, not only civil and military officials present, but also the elders of the three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, but also from all over the country rushed to Mount Tai to watch the ceremony.

Of course, the Zen Sealing Ceremony also has the things that these elders have to do.

Since it is to show off his merits, Zhu Qiyu, as a madman, is still a person who likes to show off in his heart, and he has long told the Ministry of Rites, not only the top elders of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, such as Heavenly Master, Yan Shenggong, Shaolin Temple, Tibet Living Buddha and other elders also came, but even the famous Confucianism and senior monks in the Ming Dynasty, as well as the Tusi elders in Tibet, western Sichuan, Yunnan, Guangxi and other places, have also come from thousands of miles away.

In a word: all you want is pomp.

And that's not all.

Korea, Japan, the Mongol tribes of Mobei, the Western Oceans, and the South Seas all sent envoys and kings.

Especially in Western countries, it is even more straightforward and simple.

First participate in the first Mount Tai Feng Zen.

Then came the second Taishan Zen sealing.

In the end, I spent the Spring Festival directly in Daming - even some kings still had the mind to live in Daming in the future, after all, after these kings came to Daming, they all went to Beijing first.

The imperial city of Beijing has been turned into a city that never sleeps by Zhu Jianji using a hydroelectric generator built by siphon distancing.

And that's not all.

Zhu Jianji has asked the Ministry of Industry to select a site to build a hydroelectric power station near Beijing.

The Ministry of Industry announced to the outside world that the entire city of Beijing will be like an imperial city.

It's a city that never sleeps.

This is simply a paradise on earth for the Western and Nanyang countries that are still lagging behind the Ming Dynasty.
