Chapter 66: Zhu Yuanzhangs whims

Zhongshan Xiaoling Tomb, Tomb of King Yu.

"Mr. Liu, please see if these measurements are almost done."

The official of Qintian Prison asked Liu Rixin politely.

Qin Tianjian himself is a master of metaphysics, and many of them have been exposed to metaphysics since childhood. They are from serious academic backgrounds.

At first, the officials at Qintian Prison were not very familiar with Liu Rixin and were somewhat arrogant.

But knowledge is something like this, and through casual exchanges, you will know each other's background.

Over the past few days, all the officials in the Qintian Prison had great admiration for Liu Rixin, and some even wanted to become his disciples.

But Liu Rixin rejected it.

Liu Rixin did not answer directly, but took the compass and made some calculations before replying:

"Okay, there are still some details that we can't deduce at the moment. We can only figure it out as we go."

After hearing this, the officials from Qintian Prison replied: "Please also ask Mr. Liu to set a time."

Digging a grave cannot be done at any time.

After all, this is not tomb robbing.

Digging graves is inherently unethical, and no one in the Qin Tian Jian, including Liu Rixin, would be willing to do such a thing unless His Majesty ordered it.

Liu Rixin calculated the time with one hand and returned: "It must be at three quarters noon."

The Qin Tian Jian officials nodded upon hearing this.

This time happens to be when Yang Qi is at its strongest.

In fact, there is a certain connection between ancient metaphysics and later science.

The tomb itself has a lot of bacteria, especially in a closed environment.

Opening the tomb when the sunlight is strongest and the temperature is the highest also has a certain effect on sterilization.

"Mr. Liu, then we will notify the Shrine Supervisor now and prepare for the sacrifice." said the official of Qin Tian Supervisor.

Liu Rixin nodded.

This is the tomb of the emperor's grandson. Before excavation, it is natural that some sacrifices must be made.

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Rixin said: "His Royal Highness King Yu died young and has a lot of grievances. This excavation may have an impact."

"If the resentment has not dissipated, it will most likely cause the earth dragon to roll over again."

"We should find ways to suppress it."

Upon hearing this, the Qintian Supervisor officials immediately understood the meaning and asked with some confusion: "I wonder how Mr. Liu thinks it should be suppressed."

Liu Rixin pondered for a moment and said with some hesitation: "King Yu is your majesty's eldest grandson. If your majesty can be present in person during the sacrifice, he should be able to suppress it completely."

"this..."

The officials of Qintian Prison immediately didn't know how to answer the question. When it comes to His Majesty, this matter is a bit difficult to talk about.

"I can only tell His Majesty what Mr. Liu said. The specifics can only be decided by His Majesty."

"As it should be."

...

In a restaurant in the capital,

Huang Zicheng and Yao Guangxiao sat opposite each other.

"Brother Daoyan, it's so hard for you to hide this from me. Such a strategy must have come from Brother Daoyan."

Huang Zicheng said with some complaints.

He specially invited Yao Guangxiao to come out because he wanted to ask whether the "work-for-relief" strategy was provided by the Yan Palace.

In particular, does the fact that His Majesty leaves the palace every three days have anything to do with Prince Yan's Mansion?

As the companion of the East Palace, Zhu Yunwen is Huang Zicheng's support.

Now that Zhu Yunwen has become the grandson of the emperor, he will definitely inherit the throne of the Ming Dynasty in the future.

When the time comes, he will naturally follow the rising tide.

Since Zhu Yunwen was established as the emperor's grandson, Huang Zicheng has been very proud.

Among all the ministers in the DPRK, none of them knew that Huang Zicheng was Zhu Yunwen's teacher and confidant.

Even if the six ministers met Huang Zicheng, they would show some respect and say respectfully: "Huang Hanlin."

However, like a person drinking water, he knows whether it is warm or cold.

During this period of time, he saw His Majesty's alienation from His Majesty the Grand Sun and felt anxious in his heart.

On weekdays, when I was reading and chatting with His Highness the Grandson, I had to pretend to be calm and comfort the Grandson.

He seems to be as stable as an old dog, but in fact he is a lot of panic inside.

Even when others greeted him respectfully, it didn't feel that good anymore.

Quite worried about gains and losses.

"Brother Zicheng, why did you say this? The poor monk was a little confused. Can you tell me frankly what it is?" Yao Guangxiao seemed a little confused and did not understand what Huang Zicheng meant.

"Brother Daoyan, this is what's wrong with you. You're still hiding it from me at this time, but you don't treat me as a friend."

After Huang Zicheng finished speaking, he continued: "It's the 'work-for-relief' strategy."

At present, the new "relief for work" proposed by Zhu Ying has been promoted and piloted in some counties near the capital.

Although the gentry and nobles were a little confused about this at first, in just a few days, it has become a trend.

Many noble gentry paid their own grain to the government as credit money, and then began to take over the government's work.

Although a certain order has not been formed yet, the amount of food collected is very considerable.

The famine that spread to the vicinity of the capital is being gradually reduced.

Many officials who were originally not optimistic about this matter began to change their tone and praised His Majesty as a benevolent and talented person.

The first batch of squires and nobles to participate even received verbal rewards from His Majesty during the morning court session.

Seeing the general trend, officials have begun to petition, requesting that it be promoted throughout the Ming Dynasty.

The current Ming Dynasty is under the rule of Zhu Yuanzhang.

Especially after the killings of corrupt officials many years ago, it was relatively clear.

Some officials also raised concerns about hidden dangers.

However, compared to the current famine, it can only be said that the two powers harm each other, which is the lesser.

Zhu Yuanzhang understood the horror of famine far better than others.

In the final analysis, the most fundamental reason for the chaos at the end of the Yuan Dynasty was that everyone was starving to death.

Although some court officials proposed the allusion that Tian Qi replaced Jiang, they were quickly opposed by other ministers citing scriptures.

After all, comparing the Spring and Autumn Period is just like comparing the Ming Dynasty to later generations, and the meaning is completely different.

Zhu Yuanzhang was also aware of some hidden dangers, but at present, there is no better alternative.

Yao Guangxiao was not a minister of the imperial court, nor did he attend the early court.

For some news in the imperial court, I basically listened to Zhu Di's narration.

Hearing Huang Zicheng's words, he also reacted.

Then he just laughed and said with a smile: "Brother Zicheng has thought too much. How could I have thought of such a weird idea in seconds? I misunderstood, I misunderstood!"

Huang Zicheng didn't say much after hearing this, but he was already convinced in his heart.

This proposal must have been made by Prince Yan's Mansion. Even if it was not Yao Guangxiao in front of him, it was inseparable from Prince Yan's Mansion.

This matter is of great importance, and I must report it to His Highness the Grand Sun after I return.

King Yan still doesn’t give up on the throne!

.....

Daming Palace, Huagai Hall.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had just left the court, was preparing to summon his ministers to discuss again some of the matters that had just gone to court.

Liu Hehui, the eunuch in charge of the Ceremony Supervisor, reported: "Your Majesty, there is news from the Palace Supervisor that the calculation from the tomb of King Yu has been completed."

"It's just that Mr. Liu expressed the hope that His Majesty could go there during the sacrifice to suppress the resentment among them."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he snorted coldly and said: "It's just an empty tomb. We asked them to dig it out to prove the identity of our eldest grandson."

"Our eldest grandson is already alive and well, so there is no need for resentment in the cemetery."

At this point, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly thought of it and said: "Liu He, what do you think we let the eldest grandson go?"

I suppressed my own resentment and found it very interesting just thinking about Zhu Yuanzhang.
