I don't want to be wronged again

Chapter 100 121, father and son

The emperor was shocked, only then did he realize that his beloved concubine and son were so afraid of the prince!He was very distressed, lifted Concubine Guo, hugged her into his arms, stroked her hair, and sighed: "My beloved concubine, don't be afraid of the prince. With me here, he dare not do anything to you. Don't worry." , your mother and son are not wrong, why should you be deposed from Beijing? I will call Yang Tinghe to discuss moving back to Nanjing tomorrow."

Concubine Guo Gui was overjoyed, the move of the capital was such a big event, the emperor was actually shaken because of their mother and son!This shows how important their mother and son are in the emperor's heart!If things go on like this, in the future I will blow wind in the emperor's ears a lot, so why worry about the prince's status not being shaken?At that time, she will repay the prince's lesson well!

That night, the emperor didn't even go to the new sister, Hua Meiren, and put his arms around Concubine Guo and talked about his love all night, coaxing the concubine to burst into laughter.

In the early morning of the second day, the emperor said: "Since I came to the throne, I have always felt that the climate in Beijing is cold and not suitable for people to live in. It must be even more difficult for all my loves to get up early. If I continue this way, I am afraid that your health will not be able to bear it. Besides, The north and the south provide hundreds of millions of labor, the army and the people are all trapped, and the four sides look up to Nanjing, which is also my heart. Therefore, I often think about going back to the south, and I don’t know what opinions do you love?"

The chief assistant Yang Tinghe is the head of all the ministers, and the ministers often act with his eyes.At this time, his brows were deeply furrowed, and he thought for a while before stepping forward to reply: "The land of a country's capital is the foundation of a country, and moving the capital is not a child's play, how can it be changed overnight?"

Zhang Fu also stepped forward and said: "The first emperor moved the capital. He once said: He wanted to guard the gate of the country with the emperor, so he was not afraid of the harsh climate in Beijing. The accumulation of money sells the bones. It is also fascinated by sensuality and dogs and horses. And Beijing belongs to the land of Yanzhao. There are many elegiac and generous people with the style of gold and stone. They look forward to future generations of monarchs and ministers. Bloody men, generous and calm people. Not just For the sake of pleasure and ease."

Xia Yuanji also reported: "The first emperor built Beijing. It took 20 years to move tens of thousands of households, connect the canal, and build the Forbidden City. It cost millions of people and more than [-] million taels of silver. Now if we move back to Nanjing, the former will be exhausted. Abandoned! Most of the palaces and cities in Nanjing have sunk and been damaged. If it is to be rebuilt, I’m afraid it will cost millions of dollars. Now the treasury’s money has been prepared for the funeral of the late emperor. Your Majesty’s enthronement ceremony, the title of queen, and the title of prince are all left. It’s less than a million taels, and you still need to build your mountain. There can’t be any more big expenses.”

What he meant was: You have already spent so much money, so don't worry about it, and move the capital again, I am afraid that the money will not be able to support it first.

The three important ministers all expressed their opposition, and the emperor was very depressed.This means that his ideas are unlikely to be supported by his courtiers.

The emperor frowned, deeply displeased, thought for a while, and then settled for the next best thing: "As soon as I ascend the throne, I have to report to my ancestors, and specially order the prince to go to Fengyang and Nanjing on my behalf to pay homage to the tombs of our ancestors. I think it is solemn."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the prince to take orders, he waved his sleeves and said, "Since there is nothing wrong, let's retreat." Turning around, he saw a man, and he couldn't help being overjoyed, and said, "Li Shimian, you Come with me. I have something to ask you."

This Li Shimian is an imperial servant, why do you think the emperor was overjoyed to see him?It turned out that when the first emperor wanted to move the capital, this Li Shimian had strongly opposed it. Therefore, the emperor met him at this time and remembered that since he opposed moving the capital to Beijing at that time, wouldn't he agree to move back to Nanjing at this time?Isn't this an excellent spokesperson?

The emperor took Li Shimian back to the imperial study, gave Li Shimian a seat, and asked, "I remember that when the late emperor moved the capital, you tried your best to oppose it. Why didn't you send a message when I wanted to move back to Nanjing today?" Word?"

Li Shimian lowered his hands and reported: "I opposed the move of the capital that day because it was a waste of people's resources and money, and it was a waste of money. There is no difference between Nanjing or Beijing as the capital. Today, the emperor wants to move back to Nanjing. Isn't it a big deal? Hustle and bustle? Moved back to Nanjing, the Nanjing palace needs to be rebuilt, what is the use of these magnificent palaces in Beijing? Aren’t they all wasted? The minister thinks that it’s better to be quiet than to move. The dust has been stirred up again. Therefore, this minister seconded the proposal of the chief assistant."

The emperor Dang even lowered his face, he was so disappointed!This ignorant thing!
The emperor lowered his face and said resentfully: "I am not used to Beijing's winter cold and wind and sand. I am afraid that my health will be disadvantaged if I live here for a long time."

What the emperor meant was, in this world, what could be more important than my body?If I get a cold or something here, and you don't agree to move the capital, can you take this responsibility?

However, this Li Shimian is full of bones and grows backwards. How powerful the late emperor was, how can Li Shimian refute it?At this time, he also did not save face for the emperor. He lifted his official robe smoothly and knelt on the ground. I heard that your majesty's dragon body is ill, but I heard that the emperor's lucky concubines are not separated from each other every night, and he is often lucky to have several daughters in one night. If you are so strong and healthy, why are you afraid of the mere wind and sand? Moreover, now that the bones of the late emperor are not cold, your majesty is drafting girls. How does filial piety exist? Since Your Majesty said that the body of the dragon cannot be controlled, why did you send the crown prince away from Beijing? Shi Mian asked the emperor to stay away from concubines and concubines in the funeral and filial piety, and the crown prince should not leave the left and right sides."

The emperor's face was blood red with anger when he heard the first few words, and he managed to catch his breath. Li Shimian had finished speaking, and the emperor grabbed the paperweight stone on the case with trembling hands and threw it at Li Shimian. He yelled furiously: "Li Shimian insulted me! Someone! Pull me out! Hit him to death with a pumpkin!"

The next day, the stimulated emperor made a strong decree, and first reprimanded several ministers who had spoken out against moving the capital back to the south: "The emperor guards the gate of the country? What's the use of waiting for your ministers?! Instead of serving the court, he will guard the land The responsibility is shifted, Your Majesty! There is not enough money in the treasury? During the time of the first emperor, there were countless treasure ships sailing to the west, and the waste was huge. How could it not be said that there was not enough money in the treasury! Why did I rush to build my mountain mausoleum? Do you think that my year is not long?! The moon is long today, and the mountain mausoleum One matter can be postponed, and the provincial banker will move the capital first when he comes out! After the prince sacrifices to the mausoleum, he will oversee the construction of the Nanjing Palace, and then return after finishing!"

He scolded Zhang Fu and Xia Yuanji like a bloody sprinkler, and even more simply, sent Zhu Zhanji to Nanjing to build a palace.Back then, his father threw him in Nanjing, and at least gave him the name of "supervising the country". Fortunately, he just tore his face naked and asked the prince to repair the palace.
