Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 2105, called Yuanmingyuan
Believe it or not, this palace is really not a place for retirement.

Whether it is said that it brings together the luck of the world, or whether it is said that there are too many dark court struggles in this palace, in short, this is not a place suitable for the elderly.

Moreover, Emperor Hongzhi has retired, and now that Zhu Houzhao is the emperor, the palace should be the place Zhu Houzhao used, and Emperor Hongzhi should find another place to live.

Although this seems very unreasonable, and he has just abdicated and is going to drive Emperor Hongzhi to live in another place, but this is the reality.

When you are the emperor, you can justifiably live in the palace, but when you are not the emperor, you can no longer live in the palace.

Since ancient times, there can only be one man in this palace, and that is the emperor!
"Liu Jin, do you have any good ideas and suggestions?"

Zhu Houzhao became interested, and built a big garden for his father. This thing can happen, but Liu Jin understands his own thoughts.

"Your Majesty, there are still many good places around the capital, and there are also many places with mountains and rivers and beautiful mountains and clear waters. Choose a place that is closer to the capital and convenient to travel, and build a large royal palace near the mountains and surrounded by water lakes. Come to the garden."

"The Supreme Emperor has always been very frugal. This Qianqing Palace was built by Your Majesty for the Supreme Emperor. Now that the Supreme Emperor needs to rest, it is natural to build a large garden."

Liu Jin thought for a while and continued.

"Yes, yes, my father was frugal all his life, now it's time to enjoy it."

Zhu Houzhao naturally nodded again and again, which also suits him.

As for money, Zhu Houzhao has plenty of money. The huge industry under his command can earn extremely huge and considerable wealth every year. After decades of accumulation, Zhu Houzhao can be said to be the richest in the entire Ming Dynasty.

"Bring me a map."

Then Zhu Houzhao gave an order, and Liu Jin also hurriedly ordered the little eunuch to take the place in the capital.

"The Xiangshan side is very good. It seems that the whole mountain is red in autumn, like a flaming mountain. It's very beautiful!"

Zhu Houzhao's finger landed on Xiangshan's place.

He used to be the Governor of Shuntian Mansion, and he has been to almost every place in the capital several times. He is very clear about the places that can be visited around the capital, and he knows where the scenery is good. .

"Xiangshan is indeed a good place. Relying on Xiangshan and the lake next to it, it must be very good to build a royal garden."

"At that time, we can plant exotic flowers and plants from all over the world in this garden, and raise some fish in the lake. It must be very good."

Liu Jin looked at the position and nodded.

Xiangshan is Xiangshan Park in later generations, and the environment is naturally needless to say.

"Hmm~"

"That's it, build a big garden here."

"What's your name?"

"What palace?"

Zhu Houzhao nodded and settled down, and then thought about the name of this garden.

Zhu Houzhao is very concerned about this matter, this is a garden built for his father, his favorite father, of course he has to put his heart into it.

"Let's call it Old Summer Palace!"

When Liu Jin heard Zhu Houzhao thinking about his name, he almost blurted out.

"Old Summer Palace?"

Zhu Houzhao listened and savored it carefully.

"The meaning of the Old Summer Palace is that it is round and full of spirit, and it is the time of a gentleman; it is bright and universal, and it is the wisdom of a man."

"At the same time, circle also refers to the perfection of personal morality, surpassing ordinary people, and Ming refers to the bright light of political achievements, perfect and wise."

"This perfectly fits everything about the Supreme Emperor. The Supreme Emperor is the same emperor through the ages. He is generous and benevolent, loves the people like a child, and is thrifty and industrious. My Daming, under the painstaking management of the Supreme Emperor, has achieved the eternal prosperity we have today!"

Liu Jin also quickly explained to Zhu Houzhao in detail.

To be honest, the name Yuanmingyuan did not bode well. After all, the Yuanmingyuan in later generations was looted and burned to the ground.

It is now the Ming Empire, and what will happen in the future is unknown, but for now, no one should be able to kill the capital of the Ming Dynasty to burn the royal garden of the Ming Dynasty.

The Old Summer Palace of later generations was burned, leaving countless regrets for the people of the country.

Now if the Ming Empire builds the Old Summer Palace, it would be very good.

"Not bad!"

"Good name, good name!"

Zhu Houzhao immediately gave a thumbs up after listening to Liu Jin's explanation. This Liu Jin usually speaks very straightforwardly, but he can always burst out some classic things at critical moments.

"Let's go, let's go see Father Emperor together."

Zhu Houzhao's mood seemed to improve all of a sudden, and he took Liu Jin to see Emperor Hongzhi.

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi temporarily lived here in Renshou Palace.

Renshou Palace has always been the place where the Empress Dowager lived. Many people may not be familiar with Renshou Palace, but if it is replaced by Compassionate Palace, everyone will know what it is.

Emperor Hongzhi became the Supreme Emperor, and Empress Zhang naturally became the Empress Dowager. Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang moved out of the Qianqing Palace together, and gave up their positions to Emperor Zhengde and Empress Xia.

At this time, in Renshou Palace.

"Father!"

Princess Nanyang threw herself into Emperor Hongzhi's arms and wept badly.

Ever since he was a child, Emperor Hongzhi loved Princess Nanyang the most. He loved her as a baby. Although Emperor Hongzhi was busy with state affairs, he still took time to accompany Princess Nanyang every day. His affection was very deep.

Now Emperor Hongzhi is not in good health, and his eyes are still blind. This makes Princess Nanyang extremely sad and sad. These days, she lives in the palace and stays with Emperor Hongzhi.

"Woooo~woooo~"

Princess Nanyang was crying, and Princess Nanyang's son was crying along with her.

"Silly boy, why are you crying?"

"Father, isn't this good? Look, you are crying, even my precious grandson is crying together."

Emperor Hongzhi touched and hugged his grandson, he was very bright, open-minded and open-minded, and he didn't feel too much sadness or sadness because he couldn't see him.

Seeing that her son was also crying, Princess Nanyang quickly wiped away her tears, but she was still very sad.

"Ugh!"

Empress Zhang on the side also burst into tears, feeling very sad.

He and Emperor Hongzhi were in love all their lives, but Emperor Hongzhi, as the son of heaven, only had him as a woman. This is something that has never happened among emperors through the ages, which shows that Emperor Hongzhi loves her.

Now that Emperor Hongzhi was blind, he couldn't exercise as before, and he had to be served by someone specially for eating, reading and so on.

Seeing Emperor Hongzhi like this made her very sad and sad.

"Okay, okay, don't cry anymore."

"Didn't the professors at the Tai Hospital say that as long as you take a good rest, you can still recover slowly."

"Now that there are no worries about state affairs, I can rest and rest with peace of mind. I believe I will get better soon."

Emperor Hongzhi heard the cries of Empress Zhang and Princess Nanyang, and Empress Xia and several important concubines of Zhu Houzhao were also wiping away their tears. It was annoying to hear.

"Ok!"

Empress Zhang and others quickly wiped away their tears, and began to chat with Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi can't see now, and can't read books or newspapers, so he likes to have people chatting with him, chatting and so on.

"Father, Father!"

At this time Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin came. Before they arrived, Zhu Houzhao roared loudly.

"This child is already an emperor, and he is still so frizzy."

Hearing Zhu Houzhao's voice, Emperor Hongzhi immediately laughed.

"He's always been like this."

Empress Zhang also said with a smile.

Soon, Emperor Hongzhi and Liu Jin walked in.

"They are already emperors, and they are still so frizzy."

Emperor Hongzhi reprimanded Zhu Houzhao with a straight face.

"In front of my father, I will always be a child."

Zhu Houzhao said with a hippie smile.

"His Majesty!"

Liu Jin also saluted Emperor Hongzhi.

"Liu Jin, you're here too."

"Sit, sit!"

Hearing Liu Jin's voice, Emperor Hongzhi was also happy, and hurriedly ordered someone to give Liu Jin a seat.

He is no longer an emperor, and Emperor Hongzhi is more approachable, and he has no airs. Liu Jin's arrival makes him very happy, as if he has been a friend for many years.

"grandfather!"

When the son of Princess Nanyang saw Liu Jin, he was overjoyed and shouted.

"Haha, you're here too."

Seeing his grandson, Liu Jin also said with a smile.

Liu Jin's sons were basically sent to various places by Liu Jin, and many of them went to overseas colonies. The only ones around were the eldest son Liu Xin and the youngest son Liu Qing.

Naturally, there are not many grandsons and granddaughters around. Liu Jin usually loves his grandsons and granddaughters very much. After all, Liu Jin cannot escape the law of next-generation relatives.

In the past, Liu Jin was extremely strict with his son, but now he is not so strict with his grandchildren.

The arrival of Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin also made the atmosphere on the scene happier, and they didn't mention any important national affairs, but only talked about the shortcomings of the parents at home.

Zhu Houzhao had a lot of sons and daughters, and there were quite a few around Emperor Hongzhi every day. The children and grandchildren were around their knees, noisy and noisy, but it was very lively.

Emperor Hongzhi stepped back, and he didn't care about the country's affairs at all, and he didn't even bother to ask.

Because he believed that Zhu Houzhao could manage the entire Ming Dynasty well, he handed it over to Zhu Houzhao with confidence. At the same time, there were ministers like Liu Jin and Wang Shouren in the court, and nothing would happen at all, so he didn't need to ask.

The current Emperor Hongzhi really has completely retired, and he can enjoy his old age with peace of mind, and his children and grandchildren are around his knees, so he is very happy.
