The love affairs in the chariot cannot be described in detail.
After walking for three hours, the group finally arrived at the foot of Yuquan Mountain.
The chariot stopped at the gate, and the guards dispersed and stationed themselves in the barracks built in advance on all sides of Yuquan Mountain.
The beloved concubines changed from their previous coquettish and weak behavior. They all jumped out of the carriage lightly and nimbly, and excitedly looked at their new Prince Qi's palace.
Zhu Qiyu saw it more clearly than the concubines. He stood on the imperial road at the foot of the east side of Yuquan Mountain and looked east. Two miles away were the famous Kunming Lake and Wanshou Mountain in the Summer Palace.
Two miles east of Wanshou Mountain is the more famous Old Summer Palace.
Two miles south of the Old Summer Palace is the equally famous Changchun Garden.
When you stand on Yuquan Mountain and look to the west, you will see Fragrant Mountain eight miles away.
The area surrounding Yuquan Mountain is full of good places. Although they were enemies of the Qing Dynasty, Zhu Qiyu had to admit that in terms of living, the Qing emperors' aesthetics were more elegant.
The Ming Dynasty family, starting from Taizu, knew high, big, superior, spectacular, majestic and majestic.
This is completely entering the realm of Buddhism. If you tell them about Taoist landscapes, countryside, innocence and simplicity, they will not understand.
Thinking of this, Zhu Qiyu secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, I am the emperor now, and I can live wherever I want. If he is still a prince, he can only live in the prince's palace built by the imperial court according to fixed regulations, and he cannot leave the city without an edict.
It can only be like being in prison, trapped in the royal city, and then like a pig, playing with women, giving birth to children, eating and waiting to die.
Hey, we have to change this weird national policy of raising clans like pigs.
Zhu Qiyu was lost in thought when Lin Xiangyu pushed him gently from the side: "My husband must be so happy that he was stunned. The sisters ran in long ago, so let's hurry in too."
Zhu Qiyu came back to his senses, looked around, and saw that he and the little princess were not the only ones left. He couldn't help asking worriedly: "Where are the people? They are all a bunch of wild girls, why are they running around as soon as they come out?"
Lin Xiangyu smiled and said: "Husband, look at it. The entire Yuquan Mountain is surrounded. Once you enter this gate, you and our fifteen sisters are the only ones inside. What danger can there be?"
Zhu Qiyu heard this and looked at the fence carefully. It consisted of three layers of horses lined up side by side, and then wooden fences were used on both sides of the horses. Guards were stationed outside and patrolled closely, so it was relatively safe.
Seeing this, Zhu Qiyu suddenly realized: "The Juma built during the Beijing Defense War was of no use after the war, so you moved them all here. This can be regarded as waste utilization."
Lin Xiangyu smiled and said: "Our family paid for it, so it was bought from the imperial court, but the price is very cheap. After all, if you sell it to others, they will have no use. When the weather gets warm, we will bake green bricks and build them." Build a high wall and make do with it for a few days now.
Sir, look around again. The mountains in the distance, the big lake, and the fertile fields around here all belong to our family now.
Within a radius of seven miles, could it be the field of King Qi? Between the mountains, rivers and lakes, could it be the land of the King of Qi?
Husband, you are now the leading landowner and slave owner in the capital. "
Zhu Qiyu smiled bitterly: "I still wanted to reform others, but I ended up becoming the largest landowner and slave owner first. Be lenient on yourself and be strict on others. Don't expect others to be convinced now."
"Okay, husband, you are too demanding on yourself. The ministers are calling you loyal and patriotic all day long, but they still have to receive their salary every month.
The husband just built a garden, bought a farm, and raised a dozen slaves. He didn't work for people or lose money. What's the point? You can't let your husband work for the country on an empty stomach.
Besides, even Emperor Xiaowen gave Deng Tong a mine and let him mint money at will. "
Zhu Qiyu nodded with satisfaction after hearing this: "The princess is absolutely right. Since Emperor Xiaowen has done it, then I can do it too."
Lin Xiangyu covered her mouth and snickered: "My husband can learn anything from Emperor Xiaowen, but don't imitate him in raising a male pet. The slave family doesn't want a Deng Tong to pop up one day."
"Only the Emperor likes male pets, especially Ma Liang. He is really favored by the Emperor. I don't care, I only like to play with women."
"That's pretty much it. Let's go. I will serve my husband and go to the hot springs first. Let's talk about these troublesome things after the Lantern Festival."
No words for ten days.
The days of soaking in the hot springs passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was the fourteenth day of the first lunar month.
Most of the civil servants and generals were still immersed in the New Year atmosphere and enjoying themselves at home. Zhu Qiyu, on the other hand, has already started work ahead of schedule with his cronies.
Yuquan Mountain is composed of three small hills connected from north to south. The southernmost hilltop is surrounded by lakes on three sides.
The small mountain depression surrounded by the main lake and Nanshan on the south side is the temporary residence of Zhu Qiyu and his beloved concubines.
Less than a mile south of the temporary residence, there is a three-story attic, where Zhu Qiyu chose to handle government affairs.
Sitting on the attic, if you open the window, you can see mountains, rivers and lakes in the south, north and east, and your mood will also broaden.
He Yi, Huang Pu, Lian Gang, Xu Zheng, Huang Jian, and Yue Zheng came to the attic early to wait.
Zhu Qiyu was still sitting facing south, leaning on the soft couch, looking at the green lake in the south and the hills in the south of the lake in trance.
Lian Gang didn't care whether the emperor was happy or unhappy. He gave a piece of bad news as soon as he came up: "Your Majesty, in the past ten days, it has been spreading in the capital. Everyone said that on the first day of the Jingtai Dynasty, the three main halls of the Forbidden City were destroyed. It was burned to a white ground.
This is because your Majesty's moral deficiencies have offended God, and this is the reason for this disaster.
There are also some officials from the Hanlin Academy, the Ministry of Rites and the Six Sections, who have already begun to meet to write letters, stating the pros and cons, and imploring Your Majesty to issue an edict to punish oneself. "
Zhu Qiyu was amused when he heard this: You put a big pot on my head and let me be the king of subjugation. In the end, I rescued Daming. It’s okay if you don’t thank me, but you actually want me to punish myself?
What sin am I guilty of? My biggest crime is to go into the city and kill you without your permission, and then take all your wives, concubines, and family members back to the grassland to be sex slaves.
Everyone looked at the emperor's face and thought he was going to curse. Unexpectedly, Zhu Qiyu's expression suddenly changed and he put on a calm and calm expression. He smiled at Lian Gang:
"You can write the edict to sin against yourself, no problem. You guys polish it first, and in two or three days, write the edict to sin against yourself for me."
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other. Even He Yi, who always understood the emperor's thoughts best, couldn't figure out what the emperor wanted to do. Could it be that he is angry?
However, He Yi cannot be blamed for this. No one could have imagined that Zhu Qiyu would take the initiative to burn down the Forbidden City.
In the entire 270 years of the Ming Dynasty, there were only two emperors who could set fire to the Forbidden City, including the current Zhu Qiyu.
It's normal for He Yi and others not to think of such a wonderful thing.
As long as there is nothing wrong with the brain, no one will think about it.
Zhu Qiyu didn't wait for anyone to reply, and continued to order: "Ignore them, Huang Aiqing, go and patrol Beizhili. You don't need to take care of Xuanfu and Huailai, which are newly included in Beizhili. Just control the original eight prefectures."
