Chapter 856 Heaven has no two suns, no country has two masters(1/2)
Several people were walking, and Emperor Chongzhen suddenly stopped: "It has been almost thirty years since I ascended the throne?"
Lu Xiangsheng and Zhang Zhiji, who were following Emperor Chongzhen, looked at each other and found that the other party was also confused.
Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne in the seventh year of Tianqi, and now it has been twenty-nine years since the 28th year of Chongzhen, so it is naturally almost thirty years. If we put it another way, it is half a Jiaozi.
Well, it's been a long enough time.
However, in the late period of Emperor Chongzhen, he was still young, otherwise the words "I am fighting for age" would not appear in the edict of the throne.
In other words, Emperor Chongzhen is only forty-five years old, which is calculated according to the algorithm of Xusui.
Emperor Chongzhen's sudden sigh seemed to be saying that he was old, but Emperor Chongzhen himself was an emperor of Yunwen and Yunwu. His physical fitness was many times better than Emperor Jiajing, who only cared about cultivating immortals. Even Emperor Yongle might not be worse.
If we judge based on the general situation, Emperor Chongzhen could at least be the emperor of ten or twenty years, and even create the longest reign. Why did he suddenly express this kind of emotion?
Emperor Chongzhen did not let the two wait for too long.
After pondering for a while, Emperor Chongzhen said, "My bedroom should be built almost, right?"
Lu Xiangsheng looked at Emperor Chongzhen's back with a confused look on his face.
Other emperors have one counted one, and almost always built their own tombs since they ascended the throne. In addition to worrying that they would not have a place to bury them after they died, they also consider extending the construction period and diluting the cost with time.
In addition, it is generally the time when the emperor lives, the more he needs to build the python. The longer he lives, the bigger the project will be, and the more awesome the python will be built. This is basically the default convention in the emperor's world.
However, all of this happened before this master.
This master has not arranged to build a tomb for himself since he ascended the throne. Even if the ministers mentioned it once, it was rejected by this master.
What’s so bad is that if you want to build a cemetery for the emperor, he is not like other things. If he doesn’t work once, he can mention the second and third chapters again. Until the emperor agrees, it is impossible to mention such a thing again.
Otherwise, what do you want? Let the emperor die early? Or are you worried that there will be no place to bury him after the emperor dies?
Although there is no place to bury the emperor after his death, the Zhu family has had such a thing. Emperor Chongzhen's father, because Zhu Changluo died too early, and his tomb was not repaired, so he could only bury Zhu Qiyu's Qing Tomb.
The question is, who dares to tell the story of Emperor Chongzhen’s father? No one can bear the big hat that curses the emperor with a grudge.
Especially this man has so much dark history. Killing a minister is like killing a little chicken. Who is not afraid?
Now, this man finally remembered that he should repair his bedroom and that he could see what his former chief minister Wen Tiren had not been alive.
I didn't say anything. Since this master remembered to dig a hole for himself, the rest would be easy. He would have to pay money to support the treasury no matter what. He would just let the remaining big heads be distributed by the Shaofu and the treasury.
After looking at Zhang Zhiji again, Lu Xiangsheng bowed and said, "I don't know what Your Majesty mean?"
Lu Xiangsheng knew that Emperor Chongzhen must have come up with something else. If he just wanted to dig a hole for himself, then Emperor Chongzhen would just let the Shaofu and the Ministry of Works go to trouble. There was no need to raise it alone while he and Zhang Zhiji were there.
Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhen said lightly: "I intend to change the tomb to another place. I wonder what Lu Aiqing thinks?"
Can I not see?
Lu Xiangsheng knew that things were not that simple, but he didn't expect things to be so troublesome!
The emperor's tomb does not mean that he can cultivate wherever he wants. He has corresponding rules.
For example, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, except Xiaoling Mausoleum, are all in Wanshou Mountain. Do you want to open another new mausoleum area alone?
Lu Xiangsheng was very distressed, at least other people's emperors didn't do that.
There is not a history of the emperor who changed his home to another mausoleum, but see who they are?
There are ones that count as one, and they are basically moved to the capital, such as Emperor Yongle.
Emperor Chongzhen revived the Ming Dynasty well, but did not move the capital. He suddenly proposed this. Could it be that he wanted to change the capital of the Ming Dynasty?
The problem is that it is not as simple as getting a escort. There are so many things involved, and it is easy for trouble to happen if you do it well.
While they were talking, several people had already arrived at the Qianqing Palace.
Emperor Chongzhen walked straight to the front of the map, pointed to the map, and spoke, "I think this place is good, the feng shui is excellent, and it can be the place where my tomb is located."
...
Lu Xiangsheng admired Emperor Chongzhen very much.
Pointing to a land that has not been explored by professionals, and then swearing that Feng Shui is excellent and suitable for your elderly’s burial?
More importantly, this land belongs to the Ottoman Türkiye, and his own is not from the Ming Dynasty!
If you want to build a tomb on this land, would you guess the Ottoman Türkiye agree?
Even if they agreed, how many years would you take to build this siege? When you are the old man, Long Yubintian, can you bury it smoothly?
Besides, the Ministry of Works secretly chose many places with excellent Feng Shui for Emperor Chongzhen. Now that Emperor Chongzhen does this, all his previous efforts have been wasted...
Zhang Zhiji is not considering the problem like Lu Xiangsheng.
Since Emperor Chongzhen thought this land was good and suitable for being a siege, he would send troops to retrieve it and then let professionals see if it is really good for Feng Shui and whether it is really suitable for being an siege of Emperor Chongzhen.
However, this will delay the start of the construction of the cemetery.
The late start of construction of the emperor's tomb means that the construction time is short, and the final scale is not much larger.
To be honest, for Emperor Chongzhen's current achievements, he was happy wherever he wanted to bury him. Even if he wanted to demolish the Forbidden City and build a monument, he was happy.
However, the key to the problem lies in the achievements of Emperor Chongzhen.
When it comes to civil affairs, the establishment of Royal Colleges and universities, and the reform of the imperial examination system, these achievements of the Ming Dynasty in silence and silence are unforgettable to erase.
There is nothing to say about martial arts. What is the seal of wolf's servants, what is the expansion of land, and what is the prestige of the country outside the territory. Any of these is enough to be written in history, and Emperor Chongzhen has occupied it all!
The achievements are too great. If the scale of the memorial is small, even if Emperor Chongzhen himself doesn't care about such a thing, even if the royal family will not mention it in the future, the historical books will not be able to explain it!
At least, when later generations saw such a great emperor, they buried a three-foot-long pit after they died. How do they talk about the officials of the Chongzhen Dynasty in the future?
Even if the people who are recorded clearly, they will never be famous in history books!
So by heart, Zhang Zhiji and Lu Xiangsheng both felt that Emperor Chongzhen was not very good at choosing places.
If it really doesn't work, go to Xiaoling to make do with him? Go with Emperor Taizu Gao?
After pondering for a while, Zhang Zhiji spoke: "Your Majesty, you must be referring to the feng shui of the place. Even if the Ming Dynasty wants to send troops to take it, it will only take one or two years.
However, this will inevitably delay the construction time of the cemetery. At that time, the scale of the cemetery is not enough, and I will not be able to explain it to the people of the world?"
Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "I feel that my health is still strong and I can't use it for a while. It's okay to wait for another three to five years, so there is no need to hurry up.
But in this way, the Ottoman Türkiye and the Mughals can no longer be treated as before, and they will inevitably speed up."
Zhang Zhiji bowed and said, "Your Majesty, no matter how fast it is, even if the Tsarist Russia is involved, I am afraid that the three of them will not be able to decide the outcome for a while?"
Emperor Chongzhen nodded and sneered: "Then let the European countries contribute their efforts too.
Didn’t they like to do some crusades before? This time, let the Holy Roman Empire organize it and come back to the last time.
I don't believe that the Ottoman Empire is facing attacks from Mughals, Tsarist Russia and the Holy Roman Empire, how long can it last!"
Lu Xiangsheng suddenly spoke, "Your Majesty, the Crusades, their troops belong to the church.
Now the church has finally calmed down. If they are given another chance to control the military, they will be afraid that there will be more troubles?"
After sneering, Emperor Chongzhen said, "The Crusaders are crusaders, the churches are churches, and the two cannot be confused.
In addition, this time the Crusade made the Holy Roman Empire come forward and let my son marry their princess, so he had to make some expression."
When he mentioned his son, Emperor Chongzhen raised the topic to Zhu Ciyi: "By the way, news came from the King of Jin that there were many small countries in Europe that had no choice but to surrender to the Holy Roman Empire.
And those close to Bavaria have been fully incorporated into Jin State, which should be considered good news."
Lu Xiangsheng said with a confused look on his face: "If those small countries were incorporated into Jin State, those barbarians?"
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but say angrily and amusedly: "The King of Jin made a fool of himself and gave the barbarians the identity of the people of the Ming Dynasty.
If we talk about it strictly, it should be considered the same treatment as the people of the vassal states in North Korea and Myanmar before. However, the King of Jin granted some conditions and gave them the possibility of naturalization of the Ming Dynasty."
Lu Xiangsheng was still a little confused: "Whose kings and people are willing to accept it?"
If it were common sense, those people should be acceptable, but what about those kings? After being incorporated into Jin State, they seemed to have no benefits, and instead would lose all the privileges of the past?"
After laughing, Emperor Chongzhen said, "How big are those countries? How many soldiers and civilians do those so-called kings rule?
The small countries around Bavaria are the largest of them, the largest of them are just a state and one prefecture, and the smaller of them is the size of a few villages. The so-called state rulers have tens of thousands of people, and the least of them are thousands of people.
Although the King of Jin disagreed at the beginning, after the people of those small countries vowed to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty and the King of Jin's mansion, they finally reluctantly agreed."
Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but look at Zhang Zhiji again.
The information revealed by Emperor Chongzhen’s words is a bit big...
After thinking for a long time, Lu Xiangsheng bowed and said, "I will die!
Your Majesty, since ancient times, there has been no other day... Even if Your Majesty loves King Jin, then..."
After saying this, Lu Xiangsheng, who was still bent, closed his eyes and waited for the arrival of the final verdict.
When Emperor Chongzhen first talked about the matter of Yinling and went to the Holy Roman Empire to organize the crusaders to fight Ottoman Turkey, Lu Xiangsheng vaguely had some speculations.
When Emperor Chongzhen mentioned that King Jin had "reluctantly" agreed to the incorporation of those small countries into Jin, Lu Xiangsheng basically confirmed his thoughts.
Emperor Chongzhen probably intended to allow King Jin to succeed to the throne of the Holy Roman Empire!
Theoretically, Lu Xiangsheng could ignore what Emperor Chongzhen said, and even avoid it. However, Lu Xiangsheng still couldn't help but feel shorter than long pain. He stretched his head and shook his head or shook it!
It would be better to take advantage of the time when only you and Zhang Zhiji are present and take the matter out in advance so as not to be unable to persuade you in the future!
