At that time, it was supposed to be a rainy day, but after Zhu Yijun gave an order, the dark clouds had gradually dispersed.

The blue sky appeared on the Purple Mountain.

Sunlight also appeared in bundles from the white clouds, sprinkled into the forest, and also sprinkled on Zhu Yijun's crown, and even sprinkled on the bronze back of the strong man who carried the monument.

That's right.

With Zhu Yijun's decree, as soon as the big monument prepared in advance was carried up by the strong men and began to stand in the filial piety tomb.

Zhu Yijun, Li Chengliang, Wang Xijue and other ministers all looked at this monument.

At that time, thousands of rays of light were also sprinkled on this big monument, revealing a radiant luster.

"This is undoubtedly the way to restore the old rites of the kings of the future!"

"If anyone makes the price of salt and rice rise again, will they not be qualified to come to the tomb of filial piety?"

Xu Hongji, the representative of the Nanjing nobles who came with him, couldn't help but sigh in a low voice to Li Zongcheng, the Marquis of Linhuai, at this time.

Li Zongcheng nodded and said: "It's not just that I don't dare to come to worship the filial piety tomb, but I'm afraid that I have to worry about whether I will be blamed by Taizu under Jiuquan in the future, after all, there is such a good Son of Heaven to demonstrate in front, even if it is copied, it should not be too bad." ”

Zhu Yijun also looked at a dry watch book that was burning with flames.

Now he is indeed deliberately writing down his merits in various ways.

Because it was interesting to him.

After all, he doesn't lack anything now, so he can only increase his sense of value in this way.

After Zhu Yijun finished worshipping the filial piety tomb, he left the southern capital and went to Suzhou.

Before Zhu Yijun came, the officials and gentry in Suzhou had begun to prepare all kinds of driving matters under the command of Suzhou officials, and restrained their children and domestic slaves, fearing that they would not even be able to save their lives in the end because they angered the Son of Heaven like the salt merchants in Yangzhou.

Therefore, after Zhu Yijun arrived in Suzhou, there was no accident, only saw the bustling Gusu City with many people, full of pavilions and pavilions, and it looked quite elegant and quiet in the continuous spring rain.

After Zhu Yijun met the Suzhou officials first, he directly helped Shen Shixing, who was listed first in Suzhou Township, and said with a smile: "Master Shen has made a lot of fortune after returning to his hometown. ”

"Thanks to Your Majesty's grace, this extremely prosperous world has been created, so the ministers can lie high in the countryside, and they will be greedy and indulgent."

Shen Shixing replied with a smile.

Zhu Yijun nodded after hearing this: "Who is Wang Shizhen, the leader of the literary world?" ”

At this time, Wang Shizhen, who had already been appointed from the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, stood up: "The minister has seen Your Majesty, and the false name imposed by Shilin colleagues is not worthy of the name after all, and it will provoke Your Majesty to make fun of it!" ”

"Presumably, Qing also has some achievements in the literary world, and Shilin is like this."

"Why should you be humble."

Zhu Yijun said a word, and walked towards the city, and frowned as he walked: "Why is the fragrance of fat powder so strong in the city?" ”

After speaking, Zhu Yijun looked up and saw that on many pavilions, there were women who pushed open the bright tile windows, and they wore heavy makeup one by one, either supporting their cheeks on the railing, or covering their faces and smiling, but they were indeed stunning.

Moreover, for a while, after Zhu Yijun came over, many silk handkerchiefs fell, and there were even belly pockets!

From a distance, it looks like rain.

"Is Suzhou going to charm me with beauty?"

Zhu Yijun couldn't help but ask with a smile at this time.

Shen Shixing was closest to Zhu Yijun, so he explained at this time:

"Your Majesty is angry!"

"Although the Fuyuan and the ministers have advised, don't confuse the king with lust, but at present, it seems that the advice is useless, since the prosperity of business and entertainment, although it has benefited many people, but it has also made people impetuous, everyone is only for the sake of wealth and nobility, and the courtesy, righteousness and shame are more and more light, especially after the prosperity of the textile industry, even women are no longer as virtuous as the beginning of the country, all seek beauty, and there are many women who have gradually become the sluts in the villagers."

"Among them, there are many sluts for those who are married, and many sluts for those who are not married."

"Now when His Majesty appears, those who behave like this are all unmarried sluts, they would rather be princely concubines than marry civilian wives, especially those who are beautiful, and hope to change their beauty to a good price and status, Rao is minister goes out of the city for an outing, there are many people who do not dislike the old man and come to flatter the minister, not to mention that His Majesty is a promising king in the prime of life?"

"These, the minister also mentioned for His Majesty in the secret music, Wu Di is the most important because of the development of industry and commerce, so the style is the heaviest, please understand Your Majesty."

After Shen Shixing said, Zhu Yijun nodded, then picked up a handkerchief that fell on his face, and handed it to Huang Xun: "Send a few eunuchs to pick up all the things thrown by these women, and then put them in the Suzhou Mansion, and let them go to the Suzhou Mansion by themselves, whether they lost it intentionally or unintentionally." ”

"Yes!"

Here, Zhu Yijun continued: "If you go directly to Shenfu, you don't have to go shopping on the street anymore. ”

Shen Shixing said yes here, and was busy letting his family go back to the ceremony, and the emperor wanted to come to stay at home in advance.

Zhu Yijun made an order to Shen Shixing before the southern tour, to come to the Shen Mansion to stay, and said that all expenses would be borne by the inner court, which was an opportunity for the Shen family to use the emperor's money to build a large number of buildings and purchase all kinds of treasures and earn the price difference.

The Shen family did take the matter of driving very seriously.

Therefore, after Zhu Yijun said this, the Shen Mansion became even busier for a while, and Sun Shen Shaofang, the governor of Shen Shi, called all the people in charge of the house to him again, and said: "The news just sent back, Your Majesty has no nostalgia for the beauties on the street, so notify it, let those who are ready to perform in the mansion remember to dress up elegantly, and don't dislike Your Majesty when the time comes." ”

"Yes!"

On Zhu Yijun's side, Shen Shixing continued to smile at Zhu Yijun in the imperial palace and said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, there are rumors in the countryside that there is a woman who was going to throw a stick after His Majesty came. ”

"yes, why throw the stick?"

Zhu Yijun asked.

Shen Shixing said: "Recently, the story of Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing is quite popular in Wudi, so I originally planned to throw a wooden stick when I opened the window, but later the prefect Yamen issued a special notice, and the throwing wooden stick was regarded as wanting to assassinate so that no one dared to throw a wooden stick, so when His Majesty came today, it was changed to a light and soft thing like a silk handkerchief." ”

Zhu Yijun laughed dumbly after hearing this.

The queen who was sitting behind the screen in the chariot couldn't help but smile when she heard this, and then shook her head after looking at the increasingly dense silk rain outside.

Syllable!

Just as the queen shook her head, there was a loud noise in front of her.

Not long after, Zhang Jingxiu stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, a woman jumped into the curtain from the upper floor. ”

"Did you smash someone?"

Zhu Yijun hurriedly asked.

Zhang Jingxiu replied: "No! ”

Zhu Yijun asked again: "How is the woman, is she worried about her life?" ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured, because the building is not high, it seems that it has only broken a bone."

Zhang Jingxiu continued to reply at this time.

Zhu Yijun nodded: "That's good, let the doctor lead someone to carry her down for treatment." ”

"The slave family has admired Your Majesty for a long time, and Your Majesty refused to stay, and turned directly to go elsewhere, so you can only be martyred, with the pain of total lovesickness! I hope Your Majesty will remember that there is a woman called Susu outside the gate of Suzhou who once said goodbye to you with tears! ”

At this time, a woman's cry came from outside.

This made Zhu Yijun can't help but hold his forehead: "Let Jinyiwei go upstairs and watch, in case there are any more martyrs!" ”

"Yes!"

Then, Zhu Yijun said to Shen Shixing: "As Master Shen said, the prosperity of business also has its drawbacks, especially Xinli also regards the pursuit of their own happiness as a courtesy, which does make many people behave differently from before, especially women, however, from my point of view, it is not accurate to say that they are sluts and sluts, it should be that more and more women of their own clan are beginning to pursue more rights and interests or begin to pursue greater vanity, and just like men, they are more and more direct to their own desires, and dare to express their desires." ”

"Your Majesty's holy candle shines, Nansi Nong Lu Gong (Nanjing Hubu Shangshu Lu Kun) specially wrote a "Boudoir Fan Tu Shuo" for this purpose, in order to promote female virtue, but also for this phenomenon and deliberately teach their own women, but the effect is very small, and the ministers and other eunuchs are also full of worries about this, I don't know whether it will be good or bad in the long run."

Shen Shixing said.

Li Chengliang said at this time: "Your Majesty, it's a pity that Yuanfu is not here, if you talk about this matter, Yuanfu is the most qualified to speak." ”

Zhu Yijun only smiled slightly, and then said: "In my opinion, this phenomenon of women becoming more and more flamboyant and perverse is only limited to the two hundred years of history of this dynasty, which is quite worrying, but since the history of China, it can be found that this situation is not a new thing. ”

"What Your Majesty said is extremely true, this is exactly where the ministers are worried, and it is just a matter of disrupting the family, for fear of disrupting the country in the future."

Shen Shixing saw that Zhu Yijun directly talked about the woman's chaos at this time, so he followed up with what he really wanted to say.

Princess Rongyi, who was hiding behind the imperial screen with the queen, couldn't help but get up after hearing this, but the queen grabbed her at this time and shook her head.

Princess Rongyi sat back, pursed her lips, and said in a low voice: "Is it because of this that women are not talented and virtuous, and they don't let us study?" ”

The queen smiled, and then persuaded her in a low voice: "Believe in your father!" Since he has no intention of fooling the people, he naturally does not intend to fool the women of the world. ”

Zhu Yijun was only the head of the chin at this time: "But as the saying goes, it is better to block than to sparse, if it is only to prevent women from interfering in politics, to turn women into fools, it will also be bad for the whole country, you must know that all the people in the world are born by mothers, more by mothers, if women are stupid and do not know what is smart, then Meng's mother is difficult to have the wisdom of three moves, and it is difficult for mother-in-law to have the wisdom of lettering, so that the sages of the clan must be less, so they can not abandon the roots, and let women be virtuous and knowledgeable in the way of education and dredging, so that they can understand that they can have desire, and they do not have to be destroyed, but they must be restrained!" ”

"Those who have a husband do not know humility because they are good at weaving and dyeing and other skills and support their families, and those who have no husband do not know the danger because they admire vanity and climb wealth; The premise of doing this is to teach them to be independent first.
