"Your Majesty, the astrological statement is too illusory, you can't believe it, you can't believe it, your Majesty please deal with it carefully, if Your Majesty is really worried, you can send a courtier down, if you make a big move, I am afraid it will hurt the royal face, and please think twice." Liu Jian admonished.

The three pavilion elders were urgently summoned, but unexpectedly, after the Son of Heaven opened his mouth to say what he was worried about, the three elder pavilion elders suddenly changed their faces, they were more worried than Zhu Houzhao, how many years have passed since Chenghua's deeds, this sign is not good.

If this news spreads, the government and the opposition will inevitably talk about it, and if it is used by people with bad intentions, it will be another ridiculous evidence of the Son of Heaven.

In addition, not long after the first emperor went to the mausoleum, Zhu Houzhao's foundation was not completely stable, so he couldn't make trouble.

The main reason is that the emperor's meaning couldn't be more obvious, to send people down to relocate the entire Nanjing Mansion, the people of the land of the Seven Cities, there is no shadow of the matter, I don't know if it is accurate, take precautions, it is understandable, and move directly? That's not a little bit of people, but hundreds of millions of people, you think that if you say that you are accommodating, you are in a hurry, and the people don't care what your son of heaven is, in case things make a big fuss, it will be full of smoke.

Xie Qian's temper is the most upright, he endured the matter of opening the sea, after all, the advantages of opening the sea outweigh the disadvantages, for the benefit of the ship going to sea, for the country and the people, the old minister still bears you, what the hell is the Royal Manufacturing Bureau? If it weren't for the emperor that you said that there was an explanation in the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, the old minister would not hesitate to make a direct statement.

Endure and endure, can't bear it, Your Majesty, do you really think that such an old minister as a minister for the people is an ornament? Do whatever you want?

"Your Majesty, can you remember the matter of the first emperor of Chenghua, the dynasty is declining day by day, the empty consumption is wasted, building the Dao Palace, refining the elixir, what is the result? Did Your Majesty forget? Then to the first emperor, diligent and thrifty governance, self-discipline, barely maintained, and another ten years, only a little savings Gong His Majesty squandered, opened the sea ban, benefited the country and the people, the old minister agreed, for the benefit of the ship, for the people to find the grain of twenty stones per mu, the old minister loyally wished His Majesty that his wish would come true, and the dynasty had no starving people since then, but. ”

Xie Qian paused, slowed down, took a deep breath, and his voice suddenly became sad, and he said a little disheartened.

"What do you want to do, Your Majesty? Now because of Qin Tianjian's words, Your Majesty actually wants to relocate the people of the Seven Cities of Nanjing, Your Majesty, you, you, if Your Majesty really wants to be like this, the old minister has no choice but to ask for the bones, hoping that Your Majesty will give permission. Xie Qian was really confused, knelt down and took off his hat, knelt straight, and said nothing.

Liu Jian didn't expect it, so he hurriedly persuaded him; "Gong Xie, no."

Li Dongyang was shocked, he didn't expect Xie Qian to be really confused, and even the beggar bones were spoken, and he also stepped forward to pull Xie Qian, hoping that he would not be confused; "Gong Xie, hurry up, what are you doing here."

Xie Qian struggled, looked straight at Zhu Houzhao, and waited for the emperor's holy ruling.

Zhu Houzhao said in a speechless heart, I just wanted to save people, and I didn't do anything angry and resentful, as for that?

He didn't know that the three pavilion elders were all born in Chenghua, and for what he said, there was an aversion to the things he planted, and metaphysics said, in their opinion, pure and vain, what kind of glow to guard the green dragon, there must be natural disasters, such Zhu Houzhao believes in metaphysics like the first emperor of Chenghua, and what hope does the Ming Dynasty have.

Zhu Houzhao sighed and said: "Master Xie, you are an old minister of the Three Dynasties, when your father was alive, you were deeply trusted, get up, this matter is over, I still need three masters to help govern the world, please hurry up." ”

Xie Qian was also a little embarrassed when he heard him say this, Zhu Houzhao's attitude of admitting his mistakes was very good, and he was saved.

"Your Majesty, is this true?" Xie Qian was still a little skeptical.

After shouting for so many days, he can be regarded as touching some of Zhu Houzhao's personalities, so he didn't dare to confirm it.

Zhu Houzhao showed a mouthful of white teeth and said with a smile; "Master Xie doesn't believe me?"

Xie Qian hurriedly confessed; "The old minister doesn't dare."

"The three masters have worked hard, I, I understand your worries, I am not Chenghua Ye, three masters, I am a little tired, let's stop here today, as for the matter of Qin Tianjian, it's just according to Master Liu's intentions, let's take precautions, after all, there are many records of the Luminous Disaster Star in ancient times, so don't be careful."

"My emperor Shengming, the ministers are retiring."

Zhu Houzhao wanted to question them, what if something happened? Are you responsible? In the end, I held back, after all, it didn't happen, and being too careful would only make things worse.

The three pavilion elders went out with the front foot, and with the back foot, Zhu Houzhao instructed Zhang Zhong to take the Iron Eagle Guard out of the imperial city, and commanded before leaving; "You must move the people to the state capital before the officials sent by the cabinet arrive, no matter what means you use, as long as you don't die, this is something you must pay attention to."

Zhang Zhong is a complete emperor, no matter what the emperor wants him to do, he will not frown, even if he kills the people of the seven cities, he will carry it out, this is the ultimate power left to him by the first emperor Hongzhi, and now it is just from dark to light, not mysterious.

Liu Jin didn't know why His Majesty believed so firmly that there would be a catastrophe, but he couldn't help but worry about His Majesty; "Your Majesty, do you know if the slave or maid has something to say?"

"Say." Zhu Houzhao glared at him.

"Your Majesty, please forgive the slave and maid for boldly saying that natural disasters are unpredictable, if natural disasters happen, the emperor's move will inevitably be the life of a Buddha in all families, the actions of the Holy Ming monarch, the government and the opposition, and no one dares to say that Your Majesty is not a word." Liu Jin paused and asked the emperor to think about it first.

Zhu Houzhao pondered for a while and motioned for him to continue.

Liu Jin nodded and continued: "But if the natural disaster does not happen, the emperor, have you thought about the price, this will inevitably attract the attack of the court and the opposition, Zhang Zhong is the person next to His Majesty, after the accident, the emperor will bear the brunt, the slave means, why don't the emperor find a courtier to do this, let him stop this matter, success is the emperor's work, he is second, if he does not succeed, he deserves it, the emperor has nothing to do." Liu Jin's dog-legged idea is really strange, but it seems to make a lot of sense. After Liu Jin finished speaking, he bowed down and retreated to the back, waiting for the emperor to figure it out for himself, if he said too much, he couldn't show the emperor's ability, and if he made the emperor unhappy, it would be worth the loss.

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but think, Liu Jin was right, this kind of work that offends people, let others do it, Zhang Zhong is really not qualified, if he is allowed to kill, it is okay to do this kind of thing, you have to know how to be flexible, Zhang Zhong is almost flexible.

"Do you have anyone you think would be a good fit?" Zhu Houzhao asked.

Liu Jin said flatteringly; "The emperor forgot, Jiao Fang Jiao Shangshu."

Zhu Houzhao found that this Liu Jin is really a talent, although he may not be used for major events, but these dirty things, he played with them, and he was very handy, although Jiao Fang was promoted to the criminal department of Shangshu, but this person knows how to be flexible the most, this road is not passable, and he found another way, and became the emperor with Liu Daxia, but the people on the face are six Shangshu, and they can't be inflammatory, so when they say it, few people believe that a six-part Shangshu will do things that anger and resentment in order to please His Majesty.

"Send an order to the cabinet, send Jiao Fang to go down in person, and on the grounds of inspecting the government affairs of Nanjing Prefecture, he will be given the position of procurator, temporarily lead the military affairs, and have the right to act cheaply." Zhu Houzhao explained with his hands behind his back.

"The slave obeys." Liu Jin immediately received the order.

Jiao Fang received the holy decree, and Liu Jin whispered to him alone; "Lord Shangshu, Your Majesty has high hopes for you, but you have to be careful, you are going, although it is an inspection, but the reason, your Excellency has to think about it yourself, Your Majesty does not have the heart to save the people from fire and water, but you can't let the hundred officials attack, the measure is up to Lord Jiao to grasp by himself, Lord Jiao can set off, Gonggong Zhang has already gone first, if you have any questions, you can ask him to solve your doubts, our family will leave, Lord Jiao does not need to send it."

"Gonggong Liu walks slowly, and returns to His Majesty for Jiao, the official knows what to do." Jiao Fang said with his hand.

Liu Jin glanced at him meaningfully, nodded, and said goodbye.

After Jiao Fang received the order, he hurriedly returned to the house, ready to salute, the honor guard did not have time to set off, Zhu Houzhao asked him to set off, it can be seen that the matter may be a little urgent, now he finally got the trust of the current emperor, it is considered an imperial party, and he naturally does not dare to be sloppy, and ordered: "This official will take the man and the car will be simple, and you will speed up the pace, and the people will not rest, so be sure to come and meet the official as soon as possible." ”

"The subordinate obeys."

Jiao Fang then hurried out of the city, really = without much delay, the next day, on the official road, caught up with the three thousand iron eagle guards led by Zhang Zhong, and after a few simple inquiries, he understood the cause and effect, and knew that this trip was for the Son of Heaven.

What name does he want to let the people go to the state city by themselves, this way, but he is worried, and the time given to him is running out, according to Qin Tianjian, the natural disaster is half a month later.

As if to corroborate Qin Tianjian's statement, near Nanjing, a county under the jurisdiction of Shuntianfu, Jiangning, there were many insect corpses, earthworms, ants, and centipedes on the road.

After another city, into the county Jurong, it is also such a scene, what is even more terrifying is that there are snakes jumping out in groups, the old cow does not drink water and tears in his eyes, and screams to the sky.

After arriving in Shangyuan County, Shuntianfu is not far away, the problem is more serious, the sky is shaking clouds, the people think it is a wonder, but they don't know that it is the harbinger before the arrival of the earth dragon, the chickens are not on the basket, the ducks are not leaving the fence, the livestock are manic, the river surface appears dead fish, and the clear river water becomes turbid overnight.

They watched all this with horror all the way, but those people didn't realize it, they did whatever they should do every day, and the magistrate didn't take it seriously, paralyzing carelessness, the more Jiao Fang saw this, the more he was in awe of the emperor, everything that happened thousands of miles away, just by Qin Tianjian's criticism, he knew where the natural disaster appeared, and the vision of the natural disaster here was obvious, it can be certain.

"Father-in-law Zhang, this is not far from Ying Tianfu, you and I will act separately, Your Majesty has foresight, if we come a few days late, Jiao Fang dare not imagine what will happen, now say that you have to do a good job of this matter, father-in-law is short of manpower, and needs the support of the state government, Jiao Fang will go to dispatch, however, father-in-law, please listen to Jiao Fang's words, you must not be strong, you can use the court as a reason for temporary requisition, wanton expulsion, if you do not comply, you will be arrested directly, don't make trouble, just don't make trouble, father-in-law can remember well, Jiao Fang said goodbye."

Along the way, Jiao Fang thought about it and didn't have any good way, this is not a northern border town, what do you need to play in the Jianbi Qingye, but it is almost the same as the Jianbi Qingye, if you want to invite people, no one will be left to move to the state city to settle, think about it, there is only this one way, on the grounds that the court needs to employ people, temporarily requisitioned to go to the state capital to settle down, there is really no way.

"Lord Jiao Fang will go by himself, our family will remember the adult's warning, Your Majesty has also explained, you must not hurt people's lives, I just hope that you and I will have a good life, and don't waste Your Majesty's grace to the people." Zhang Zhong said solemnly.

Jiao Fang nodded, bowed his hands and left, taking a few subordinates, and hurriedly headed towards the state capital.

After Zhang Zhong waited for him to leave, he immediately ordered.

"The generals will listen to the order, ten people and one army, all the people in the village here, requisition, a team of 100 people, go to the county government to requisition, as long as it is a person, regardless of men, women and children, all carry out this temporary requisition order, do not take it directly from the people, tie up and take away, you are all on the battlefield, people who crawled out of the pile of dead bodies, I don't need to say more, just one, don't kill people, this is a death order, all understand, carry it out."

"No." The soldiers responded solemnly.

This army appeared very suddenly, at first because of the sky, and too far away, did not see clearly, until the Iron Eagle Guard walked in, they found out, and thought that they were robbers from somewhere, and when they found that they were all black Ming army armor, they were relieved, and the village chief took the land security and others to greet them at the entrance of the village.

Before they could speak, a black-armored sergeant stepped forward and spoke aloud; "The state government ordered the temporary requisition of all people here, regardless of men, women and children, immediately pack their bags and set off for Yingtianfu.
