Chapter 603 World Map
Zhu Gaoxu was at the Imperial Gate a few days ago. After lunch today, he went to the East Warehouse of the Qing Palace.
When entering the East Warehouse, you have to pass through a famous slanting corridor.
It is located in the Ganqing Gate and belongs to the living area of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. Ordinary civil and military officials from the outer court must not come in; anyone in the scholar-in-law who has been to the slanting corridor must have been close ministers of the emperor who hold important positions. Such people can not only meet the emperor, but also talk to the emperor on such informal occasions. Therefore, when a literati talks about the slanting corridor with his friends, it has a layer of halo.
Zhu Gaoxu also knew that the slanting corridor was very famous, but when he walked here, he saw only an ordinary corridor. It was like he went to visit Leifeng Pagoda in later generations. When he really saw it, he felt that it was nothing more than Er.
This palace has been built for decades. The reddish-brown wood on the slanting corridor is a bit old, and the bricks and stones on the ground are also marked by arc-shaped marks. Fortunately, the construction materials are very good and the cleaning is very clean.
The floor is untainted, giving people a good impression of neatness; the surrounding wood columns are obviously carefully wiped every day, and at this time it is faintly shining in the sun, with a very good texture.
Zhu Gaoxu walked into the Dongnuan Pavilion, and a large number of eunuchs and palace maids were around him and stopped. Only eunuchs Hou Xian and others entered. They walked past a partition, and a large chair, an imperial case, and a few bookshelfs to the north appeared in front of them.
Before Zhu Gaoxu, four Ming Dynasty emperors had sat on the chair. Zhu Gaoxu walked to the chair and did not sit down. His eyes looked at a map behind him.
Hou Xian quietly observed Zhu Gaoxu, stepped forward and bowed, "Emperor, I have been neglected. Why don't I take this picture and change it to a good-looking screen?"
Zhu Gaoxu shook his head and said, "I don't like this map (I only see the terrain on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and I know it was the map used to "suppress the rebellion"), but let it hang it here first. Looking back, I will draw another 'world map', and ask officials who are good at this, to improve it and then hang it here."
"I obey the order." Hou Xian paused and said, "Now this picture was painted by Guo Zi. When the late emperor was in power, he wanted to move the capital to Peiping, and the drawings for building the palace were also written by Guo Zi."
After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu looked at it for a moment and said to the truth: "The pen is good."
He then walked to the shelves and flipped through the books and files placed on it.
At this moment, since Zhu Gaoxu discovered the handwriting of Emperor Taizu here! His movements immediately accelerated a lot. Looking through the things written by Taizu, most of them were about how to govern the Mongolian region and how to lay out the national defense in the north. There were memorials from ministers and imperial criticisms written by Taizu himself.
Not only did the national defense concept of Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, but also the national policy planning of Emperor Taizong.
It is probably Gao Chi who put the things here. Zhu Gaoxu heard that Gao Chi always "crazy | crazy repairs" in the late period of his reign, and he was even a failed emperor; but Gao Chi was obviously not a fool, and he also had ideas about the country's major policies.
Zhu Gaoxu felt like he had a treasure! Although he had some ideas, it was best to have a continuity of a dynasty's grand national policy; understanding the strategies of the emperors of the previous generation will be of great benefit to future governance.
"These things must be preserved well! I will see them at any time." Zhu Gaoxu turned his head and said.
Hou Xian bowed and said, "Yes, the emperor."
At this time, someone entered the East Warehouse again. Two eunuchs holding stacks of memorials and Cao Fu also walked in with Xue Yan's secret scrolls. They bowed to Zhu Gaoxu and then piled up everything on the imperial desk.
Zhu Gaoxu looked around in the East Nuan Pavilion and finally sat down on the chair where the four Ming emperors had sat. Now he is the fifth.
He also wants to repair cars like his elder brother, but his life is important. He should be steady and wait until he finds out the hidden black hand!
Zhu Gaoxu sat on the chair, facing a large number of memorials and files, he looked thoughtful and did not touch the things on the imperial desk.
After a long silence, Zhu Gaoxu finally raised his head and spoke in a simple tone: "Issue an order, called Ru Yi, Zhang Sheng to meet him. I will send an order to Hou Hai to arrange a manpower to the Prince of Han Mansion in Huguang, order Gao Xianning to arrive at Beijing for 800 miles. I will send an order to Jian Yi, the Minister of Personnel, and change his appointment to Xue Yan as the Minister of Justice. I will send an order to Ru Yi, and appoint Zhang Sheng as the Commander of the Jinyiwei, Du Erlang as the Northern Punishment Envoy; Chen Dachui as the Commander of the Left Guard of Yulin, and Wang Yu as the Commander of the Right Guard of Yulin."
The eunuch Hou looked surprised, maybe because Zhu Gaoxu was too casual in doing such a big thing; but Zhu Gaoxu often fought wars and did not involve so much decisions, so he just did it!
Hou Xian bowed and said carefully: "The emperor, the emperor, the emperor, the guards and the commanders of the army, will not be able to do such things. I will be able to pass the imperial edict on his own. I will have to write the imperial edict on his own, or the officials of the Hanlin Academy write the imperial edict with seals."
"Sustaining the pen and ink." Zhu Gaoxu said.
Zhu Gaoxu wrote the imperial edict and Hou Xian retired. Zhu Gaoxu continued to ponder Xue Yan's secret scroll while waiting for the person he wanted to meet.
Xue Yan could not continue to investigate the death of the late emperor, so he had to free up the position of the Dali Temple Minister to Zhu Gaoxu's confidants; however, from the Dali Temple Minister to the Minister of Justice, he was promoted, and the six Ministers had great power and had more affairs in charge.
What Xue Yan has verified at present is the fact that the late emperor died in the East Palace and died in poisoning, which has no effect on Zhu Gaoxu's legitimacy. However, Zhu Gaoxu's intuition to assassinate the late emperor should have nothing to do with the crown prince and the officials of the East Palace, so the truth cannot be shown to others casually.
After waiting for a long time, Ru Wei, who was on the Qianbu Porch, first arrived at the slanting corridor of Qianqing Palace. Zhu Gaoxu asked him to come in and speak.
Ru Wei is a literati, but she is very burly, has a big face, and has thick pores on her face. She is probably in her fifties. When Ru Wei is approaching, she looks very nervous.
Zhu Gaoxu then remembered that more than one person impeached him in the past two days: In the "Prevention Campaign", Ru Yi often gave advice for the pseudo-emperor, and was a confidant. Zhu Gaoxu did not look at the specific content carefully, but he knew that Ru Yi was very hard in the Hongxi pseudo-mortal dynasty.
"Give him a seat to a flat body." Zhu Gaoxu said calmly.
Ru Wei hurriedly said, "I thank you for your kindness."
Zhu Gaoxu said: "When Rubutang is standing like this, I have to raise my head and my neck is so tired."
Ru Wei: "..."
Zhu Gaoxu waited for him to sit down on a stool, but he didn't say much nonsense and said directly: "I didn't read much about the memorial to impeach Rubu Hall. I have already thrown it into the palace as waste paper. Don't worry about those matters."
Ru Wei's face suddenly turned a little red.
Zhu Gaoxu continued: "I remember that when I was a vassal king and before I went to Yunnan to get a vassal, I had a conversation at the Rubutang mansion. You should remember that thing. I think Rubutang has a broad vision, and you have a lot of knowledge about the discussions of Timur, which had gradually penetrated into the Western Regions at that time."
Ru Ying clenched her fist and said, "The emperor praised her, but I dare not take it."
Zhu Gaoxu asked: "I am talking to you today. I want to ask, are you familiar with the affairs of Rubutang in the North Korea and the South Korea?"
Ru Wei said modestly: "I have a little bit of attention."
After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu asked again: "What's going on with Master Huai'an?"
Ru Wei pondered for a while, then suddenly bowed and said, "The founding monarch of the Lee family in the Korean Kingdom is Li Chenggui; the great Lord Huai'an is Li Chenggui's fourth son, named Li Fanggan (the father of the virtuous man who was mentioned by Park)."
Zhu Gaoxu was curious about what the political purpose of Park's family was; at the same time, he also wanted to understand the situation in North Korea and Korea at this time, so he thought of asking Ru Yi.
Ru Feng said: "Li Fanggan's original title was Duke Huaian. In the 33rd year of Hongwu (the second year of Jianwen), the current King of the Korean Kingdom, Li Fangyuan and the fifth son of Li Chenggui, launched the second political change of the Korean Kingdom, became the King of the Korean Kingdom; and also stripped Li Fanggan of the title, changed to the title of Grand Lord of Huaian, and exiled Li Fanggan to raise horses on Jeju Island."
When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he suddenly guessed Park's political intentions.
The Park family and Li Fang-gan family should be political alliances, and belong to the party that failed in the power struggle. The women of the Park family came to the Ming Dynasty and wanted to seek foreign aid when their political group was defeated and had no chance of turning around and could be uprooted at any time!
Even Emperor Taizong of the Ming Dynasty had done these tricks. Recently, those two Uryanha tribes who pretended to be Tatars were foreign players from the Yan Prince's Mansion during the "Jingnan Campaign"?
Zhu Gaoxu said, "Li Fangyuan launched two political changes? He is such a capable person."
Ru Wei nodded and said, "What the emperor said is very much. In fact, when Li's first launched a political change, replacing the former King of Goryeo, Li Fangyuan also made the greatest contribution; so far, he has planned three successful political changes, and he can be said to be skillful in the means."
Zhu Gaoxu asked, "What is Li Fangyuan's attitude towards me in the Ming Dynasty? What is Rubutang's opinion, but it doesn't matter."
Ru Feng said: "I think that the place I want most in all dynasties is the Liaodong region; before the King of Goryeo lost his throne, he was still mobilizing troops and occupying the territory of Liaodong.
After Li took power, in order to consolidate the royal power, Li sent envoys to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, and was very respectful. Li did not want to Liaodong, but could not. Li was wiser than Wang in the previous generation. They realized the power of the Ming Dynasty and now they had no chance to occupy Liaodong, so they had adjusted the national policy that they had shown to Daming.
In the beginning of Yongle, after Emperor Taizong ascended the throne, the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the monarch and ministers of the monarch and the monarch of the dynasty was better; because Li Fangyuan had privately met Emperor Taizong at the Yan Palace in Beiping when he was tribute to the Ming Dynasty. Now the monarch and ministers of the two countries are treating each other and are fully repaired."
Zhu Gaoxu looked at Ru Wei with admiration and nodded, "I roughly understand."
