The expeditionary army marched all the way north from Jinling and arrived at Běijg in March. otbnkotgt It was a pleasant journey for Wang Xian and his family, because a few years ago, the emperor ordered the Grand Canal to be dredged, so they were carrying the baggage of the trip, and the officers and soldiers were able to travel north lightly.
On the solar terms, it is immediately the valley rain, before and after the valley rain, planting melons and beans.
On the boundless North China Plain, the moisture has moved, the wicker has changed from yellow to green, the elm money is blooming, the cows and horses are barking, the chun light is like wine, walking on the wide official road, it is really like stepping on the green.
This is the first time in Wang Xian's life to go north along the canal, and it is impossible to wander around along the way, but after crossing the Huai River, he still clearly feels that the clothing and appearance of the people are much worse than those in the south of the Yangtze River, especially those people who pull fibers, who are not clothed, have yellow faces and thin muscles, and their expressions are numb and lifeless.
Wang Xian has seen such faces in the victims of the disaster in Hangzhou, but he didn't expect that in Shandong Province, they are full of such expressions.
"Has Shandong been hit by a disaster?"
on the way, he finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"It's true that a disaster is a disaster, but it's not a natural disaster" Xu Huaiqing, who has now been promoted to a deputy thousand households, is a native of Jinan Prefecture, and sighed when he heard this: "But it's right to say that natural disasters are also true" "What do you mean?"
asked Wang Xian.
Xu Huaiqing hesitated, and only whispered after a while: "If you talk about it, you will get into trouble, but the military advisor is a trustworthy Shandong, and he doesn't like the emperor today." ” "Hmm."
As soon as Wang Xian thought about it, he understood what he meant.
Shandong, especially Luxi, is the main battlefield of the Battle of Jingyan, Zhu Di sent troops to Jingnan, broke Li Jinglong's 500,000 army, was waiting to go south, taking advantage of the situation to go south, but kicked the iron plate in Jinan Mansion, was beaten by Tie Xuan all over the ground to find teeth, almost lost his life, after two years of fighting, he saw that the tree was going to fall and scatter, and then there was really no way, so he had to take risks, go around and go south, who knew that the auspicious stars were shining, entered Jinling and became the emperor, and then transferred troops to surround Jinan, and finally took the boss to fight down.
Zhu Di suffered a lot in Shandong and Tie Xuan, so he naturally wanted to launch a crazy revenge, not only cooking Tie Xuan's father and son, but also retaliating against Shandong XG massacre.
In the next few years, whether it was the expedition to Mobei or the construction of the canal, he first collected all the people of Shandong, and at the same time refused to exempt a grain tax even in a disaster year.
The people's servitude is several times heavier than the world, how can they make a living Walking beside the Grand Canal, which was excavated by Emperor Yang of Sui and dredged by Emperor Yongle, Wang Xianxin, who looked at the sad people by the river, said that he had been to Zhejiang, Zhili and Shandong, and the people of the three places regarded Zhu Di as an enemy However, when the army left Shandong, he saw a completely different scene, especially after passing Cangzhou, all the way was full of incense, candles, flowers, and the scene of the people cheering and sending off, and there were hundreds of miles along the way, there were scenes of people fragrant flowers and wine, and the scene of worshipping and dancing in the dust was not organized by any government, not to mention that Zhu Di didn't know whether it was to avoid embarrassment, or to be afraid of delaying agricultural affairs, he had already decreed that the officials at all levels only needed to provide slender men, and they were not allowed to be sent to.
"This is to the land of Your Majesty's Longxing," Mo Wen is a native of Tongzhou, his family is a military household, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, learned the art of war, and his talent is outstanding.
It's just that he is the seventh in line, and he can't take the turn to inherit the military position, so he took the martial arts exam.
He explained softly to Wang Xian: "The army started by the emperor is all the people in our Youyan area, and after the emperor succeeded, he not only repeatedly reduced or exempted the taxes on our side, but also rewarded the people with money and silk to thank them for their work from the dragon." ” "No wonder the emperor always lives in Běijg half of the year."
Wang Xian nodded, and said in his heart that there is really no love for no reason in the world, and there is no hatred for no reason, most of the old ministers of Jianwen are from Zhejiang, and after Zhu Di ascended to the pole, he restored the heavy taxes of the Hongwu Dynasty on this Zhejiang, so the people of Zhejiang don't like him, almost every family in the capital died in the liquidation of the early years of Yongle, how can he not hate this emperor, let alone Shandong, Jinan Mansion is still rarely populated, no wonder Zhu Di will later move the capital to běijg, of course people want to find a place to live where they like themselves.
No matter how bad Wang Xian's historical knowledge is, he also knows that Zhu Di moved the capital to běijg, but he doesn't remember what year it was.
"Yes, the emperor can't do without Beiping, and he will repair the Changling Tomb in Changping."
Mo Wen whispered: "The people of Yanjing all say that the emperor will move the capital to Beiping in the future.
"Beiping is the old name, and when it arrived in the Yongle Dynasty, it was upgraded to the capital of Zhu Di because it was the land of Zhu Di's Longxing, called Běijg.
"Oh," Wang Xian said in his heart, not a legend, but a certainty.
But he never dared to say this, if it reached the ears of Jinyiwei, the ten grandsons would not be able to protect themselves, and if they didn't get it, they would have to be beheaded all over the house.
When he arrived at the city of Běijg, he was even more convinced that he judged that this magnificent capital city had been basically completed, and that it was taller, bigger, more majestic, and more majestic than the one in the south.
Entering from the towering gate of the city that has not yet been named, the straight and wide avenue leads in all directions, although the buildings have not yet been completed, and it still looks like a large construction site, but you can already feel the grandeur, the incomparable grandeur, like the grandeur of suddenly entering a huge world, which is so shocking that you forget to breathe Not only Wang Xian, all the officers and soldiers who had just arrived in Běijg were stunned by the scene in front of them, although they came from the capital, but Jinling City is surrounded by mountains and rivers, for a super city, the terrain is very cramped, all kinds of buildings have to adapt to local conditions, and they can't take care of the central axis and symmetry at all, and they naturally can't compare with Běijg City in terms of momentum.
"Unexpectedly, it was completely newly built" Mo Wen swallowed and foamed: "I came to Beiping when I was a child, and it was only more than 20 years since King Zhongshan repaired Beiping City, and the city walls and buildings were still new. ” "Hehe," Wang Xian said with a smile: "The emperor is angry and swallows mountains and rivers, probably because he wants a brand new capital."
"Well," Mo Wen nodded, and whispered: "It's enough to work the people and hurt the money" A few days ago, he also instructed Wang Xian, don't say that the emperor is bad, but today he is a person who is cautious, but he can't help it.
"The big war is coming, don't say anything that hurts morale," Wang Xian patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Hurry up and let the soldiers enter the camp to rest, the emperor will be kind to rest for three days."
If you set off again, there will be no good babes.
"In fact, the good man has been gone since Tongzhou, and the canal has come to an end, and the burden of the soldiers has been much heavier, and there is no longer as easy as before.
However, what is even more tragic is Zhu Zhanji, but Wang Xian and they also enjoyed a leisurely time, but His Royal Highness Taisun has to follow several masters every day to study, which is the emperor's will.
It's like going out on a trip, thinking that I could finally relax, but I ended up following the tutor, and you said that it was miserable or not Zhu Di had extremely high requirements for this běijg city, and in the seventh year of Yongle, the Fengtian Hall built on the basis of the old palace of Yandi was completed, but he was not satisfied after seeing it, so he ordered it to be demolished and rebuilt.
Before the Forbidden City was repaired, he ordered the West Palace to be repaired as a temporary residence.
Although it is a temporary residence, it is not ambiguous at all, there are more than 1,630 rooms in Fengtianmen, Wumen, Chengtianmen, and Fengtiandian, and the specifications are similar to those of Nanjing's imperial palace.
It can be seen that although he is in the line, Zhu Di does not regard Běijg as a place to stay, but a serious capital.
At this moment, the emperor changed into a civilian robe and paced leisurely in the warm hall of the Fengtian Temple, and said with rare pleasure in his voice: "It's strange to say, as long as I return to běijg, I will be alive again, and I won't feel anything wrong." ” "The climate in the north is dry, and rheumatism naturally can't be troubled."
Hu Guang, the first assistant of the cabinet that Wang Xian once had a relationship with, appeared next to the emperor, he was actually not in mourning, but he was regained from the war and accompanied him to the expedition.
The biggest advantage of this scholar is that he never makes the emperor angry, let alone when the emperor is so happy: "Weichen is also comfortable, and his old bones are like a few years younger." ” "yes, that's what it feels like."
Zhu Di's face was ruddy, JG was vibrant, he walked quickly to the side of the imperial case, unfolded a map, pointed to it and said: "Běijg is a good place, the Jin and Yuan dynasties both built their capitals here, not for no reason" The ministers were not in Nanjing City, and heard the emperor's loud and excited voice: "It is the throat connecting the inside and outside of the Great Wall, the north and south of the desert, the vast plain in the southeast, and the mountain range that stretches to the outside of the Shanhaiguan Pass in the west.
At the pass between the mountains, there is a husband when the pass, ten thousand people do not open, the momentum, according to the mountains and rivers are victorious, enough to control the Tartar captives, for me to be the foundation of the Ming Dynasty" said with some emotion: "So in the fifth year of Yongle, the queen died, I did not build the imperial mausoleum in the Purple Mountain, but built the long mausoleum of me and the queen in Changping, just to let the people of the world understand that the gate of my Ming Dynasty is guarded by the Son of Heaven."
"The emperor's heartfelt words, listening to the five inner feelings, the ministers of the world and the people of the world thank the emperor," Hu Guang hurriedly praised and praised.
Seeing him kneeling, the rest of the ministers secretly cursed in their hearts, and they had no choice but to praise him.
"Hehe, all up."

Zhu Di smiled happily: "I won't treat you badly, wait for the capital to be completely completed in two years, and you will see again, I don't want to leave if I come." ” The hint in the emperor's words, even those princes and generals could hear it, most of them were Yanjing people, of course, they were willing to return to their hometowns, and they were naturally very happy.
But the ministers can't be happy, they are all southerners, in their eyes, no matter what it is called, they are all bitter cold places, who wants to move here from the south of the Yangtze River, but the emperor did not say it clearly, and they have no objection, but they are secretly awake in their hearts, it seems that if they want to keep the capital, they must make plans in advance:
