The day before the opening, Liang Chuan returned to Ding Mansion with some gifts to pay homage to Ding Wei.

Later in the year, Ding Wei, together with several chief officials of the Si Tianjian, such as Magistrate Tidian and Si Tianguan Gou, as well as several officials from the Ministry of Industry, discussed the location of the imperial mausoleum.

The person in charge is Ding Wei, the supervisor of the construction of this mausoleum. Two groups of people, Si Tianjian, are in charge of Feng Shui Kanyu, and the Ministry of Industry is responsible for the construction of fortifications. Each has its own division of labor.

The two groups were divided into two groups when it came to site selection. The group from the Ministry of Industry advocated choosing Xiaoyi Fort, while the group from Si Tianjian advocated choosing Yong'an between the northern foot of Taishi Mountain and Luohe River.

The objection raised by the Ministry of Industry is that there are many private houses in Yong'an County, with tens of thousands of households, and it is cost-effective to relocate local residents with their families. At present, eight palaces have just been repaired, and the national treasury and internal storage are already stretched thin and cannot afford any more.

undertake such a huge project.

Several officials in charge of Si Tianjian didn't understand how the Ministry of Works calculated the expenses. They just took the Feng Shui compass and went to Xiaoyi Castle to walk around.

There was no problem with the Feng Shui fortune obtained by several chief judges, and it could be used as a mausoleum. However, when several officials had finished Feng Shui and had a meal at a local noodle stall, an accident happened.

He was born ruthless and was afraid that he might be some grave robber. So he chatted with them for a few words, and the conversation revealed that the original name of Xiaoyi Fort was not Xiaoyi Fort but He'eryuan...

The head of Si Tianjian frowned and said to several colleagues: "He'eryuan... Heeryuan... it's not a good sign!"

Feng shui is not a trivial matter, especially choosing a mausoleum for the emperor's family. The slightest mistake will be a serious matter. Moreover, Taoism pays attention to perfection. If there is such a flaw, several Si Tianjian officials will not be very willing to do it.

Xiaoyi Fort was chosen as the mausoleum.

Whether something is auspicious or unlucky can often be determined from its name.

This is the reason why the ancients knew the good or bad luck of their journey just from their names when they met some special people before they left the army.

After they returned to Bianjing, they told Ding Wei their conclusions. After comprehensive consideration, Ding Wei realized that he did not dare to make the decision without authorization, so he reported the two conclusions to the officials and the Queen Mother, allowing them to make their own decisions.

Zhao Zhen has been worried about three things recently, one is the Empress Dowager's ambition, the other is the rebellion caused by the Western bandits, and the third is the numerous refugees outside the city.

I heard that my heart felt a little better after the refugee wave dissipated. Looking at the weather, I was also anxiously hoping that the temperature would warm up quickly so that the people would suffer less.

After the Queen Mother put on the dragon robe for a time, there was no more movement. It seemed that both of them had stopped.

Liu E just wore a dragon robe to enjoy herself. When she became Empress Wu, some people in the court encouraged her, but she did not have the courage of Wu Zetian!

Zhao Zhen was a little unhappy when he saw Ding Wei.

Zhao Zhen could still remember this old guy's inaction, non-cooperation and passive cooperation with the Queen Mother, and he really regretted leaving the matter of his mausoleum to him.

This is the top priority behind me. I'm afraid this kid might try something in it, because that would be a major event that would affect the fate of the country.

"Your Majesty, this is the plan decided by the Ministry of Industry and Si Tianjian on the location of the mausoleum. Please make your decision!" Ding Wei handed over the memorial.

"Can't Ding Aiqing be so capable and unable to make a decision?" Zhao Zhen glanced at two places in the memorial. He didn't know what was wrong here. He glanced at Ding Wei, who had his head lowered, with a slight anger in his tone.

meaning.

"It is related to the long-term foundation of the Song Dynasty. With a heavy responsibility on our shoulders, I dare not make rash decisions. All decisions must be made by His Majesty."

"Then tell me what makes it difficult to choose between these two places."

Ding Wei then told Zhao Zhen exactly what the interests of the Ministry of Industry and Si Tianjian had considered.

"What do you mean by Ding Wei?"

"I think Yong'an Town is the best."

Zhao Zhen's suspicious eyes wandered over Ding Wei. This Ding Wei had a reputation for corruption. Now it turned out that it was indeed the case. He wanted to make a fortune from selecting sites for Lianlian's mausoleums. Yong'an was crowded with people and resources.

Asking tens of thousands of residents to relocate their families is like driving sheep out of the pen, or should we let them plunder?

He said that the original name of Xiaoyi Fort and He'er's original name were unlucky, but hadn't it been renamed Xiaoyi Fort? The Song Dynasty ruled the world with benevolence and righteousness. Wasn't this in line with the purpose of the Song Dynasty? How could the name be unlucky?

There is clearly an ulterior secret in this!

"Yong'an Town is certainly good, but once Dingling Yong'an threatens to overwhelm the people, in my opinion Dingling Xiaoyi Fort should be the best."

Ding said that he was using this false reputation to fool himself, but in fact he wanted to enrich his own pockets. If he followed his wishes, wouldn't he be a collaborator? Seeing this, Zhao Zhen did the opposite and chose Xiaoyi Fort as the location of the mausoleum.

Ding Wei did not express any more opinions, but his many years of experience told him that there would be a lot of articles on this matter later, and now he could only take it one step at a time. He said lightly: "I will lead you"

He then headed back home.

When Ding Wei returned to the mansion, Liang Chuan waited at the door of the study for a long time with a smile on his face.

Liang Chuan accidentally bumped into the Ding Mansion. After getting rid of Cai Clan, no one in the Ding Mansion dared to make irresponsible remarks. However, Liang Chuan, who had reached this point, also knew the current situation and weakened his position in the Ding Mansion.

Influence, try not to come if you can. Otherwise, if you know so many secrets of Ding Wei, one day Ding Wei will try to get rid of you.

Just because Ding Wei didn't go out on the streets or go out didn't mean he knew nothing about the outside world. The movement on Bianhe Street was known to everyone in the city, and everyone thought it was Ding Wei's new industry, but he saw such a big movement in Liangchuan

, he definitely did not dare to do it alone. Apart from the Queen Mother who supported him, no other person dared to do such nonsense.

"The shop will open tomorrow. After a few days of building momentum, I still feel that it is not satisfactory. After much thought, I decided to ask Mr. Ding to show his face. The value of my shop will definitely double!"

Ding Wei said: "We Song Dynasty officials are not allowed to enter the wine shop. Are you putting me in trouble?"

Liang Chuan thought in his heart: You used to work harder than anyone else to enter Fan Tower. How could I make things so difficult for you if you go there another day?

"No, no, no, the inn is not a restaurant. There is a troupe performing in it. At that time, I will invite officials from all over the capital to come and enjoy the show. I performed a song called The Legend of the White Snake. Your Excellency, you have been busy with state affairs recently, so you can relax and relax.

!”

"The Legend of White Snake?"

"This is a very famous song in our hometown. The story is heartwarming and popular. Adults may wish to go and taste it. The shop has all the food and drinks. It is also a good place to relax the body and mind, not just a place.

Restaurant!”

"Sanlang, you are well-known in the literary circles of Beijing and China for your outstanding literary talents. I believe that the operas in your hometown are also unique and fascinating. I have been busy with official duties recently, which has made me exhausted physically and mentally. It's just that the Western thief Li Shi has caused trouble in the border area recently. You invited me in such a large number

Wouldn’t it be inappropriate to have hundreds of officials in the DPRK?”

"It's no big deal that Mrs. Li is a clown. I think the whole court is more worried about the Queen Mother than the person named Li. Is it possible that the country will be destroyed after just listening to a show?"

Ding Wei smiled and said nothing. Liang Chuan's words sounded treasonous, but he really didn't expect such words to come out of his mouth. If he was not related to the Queen Mother Liu, how dare he say such nonsense? This is what young people want.

He is heroic, but today's young people are too feminine, and there are few young people like him anymore.

"Okay, tomorrow I'll ask a colleague to go with you to reveal the truth. You can decide how many officials from the court to invite. Whether they come or not depends on their own wishes. I can't force you."

After Liang Chuan received Ding Wei's request, he immediately returned to Zhuangzi and distributed the names he had prepared one by one. The names listed above were all officials of the court, or celebrities in the society and people with distinguished honors.

Even worse were the top wealthy businessmen in Bianjing City, such as Xu Yin, Wang Lin, Pan Yu and others, among whom not a single ordinary citizen was included.

This large group of people will be Liang Chuan's service targets from now on. Of course, ordinary people also need to earn money. There are also many ordinary people who like entertainment and enjoyment, and they also have a lot of savings on hand.

Ordinary people might occasionally attend a concert or something, but it's not an excessive or extravagant waste.

Liang Chuan inadvertently spread the news that Ding Wei would attend the opening ceremony of his Forbidden City. For a while, many people in the court could not sit still.

Many people are political opportunists, and their purpose is simply to go after Ding Wei. A person who can flatter others will certainly not be able to refuse flattery from others.

There is also a group of people who are really curious about what new things are in Liangchuan's building.

Liang Chuan clearly wrote in his Mingla that the Forbidden City is not a restaurant. Of course there are restaurants here. Which department is open but there is no kitchen in it? It is very consistent with the national conditions for people to have a place to eat when they are hungry.

Liang Chuan's series of fresh movements made everyone crane their necks to know how many new things they had never seen before in this building. This building is so grand, since it was Liang Chuan who invited him here, and the prime minister of the Song Dynasty took the lead in taking the tour.

This floor, if the censors of Jianyuan wanted to sue, they would sue Ding Wei first. It was not their turn to be small characters like them, and nothing could stop their curiosity.

It stands to reason that Liang Chuan, as a servant, rashly issued honors to the court officials, and anyone with some status would look down upon him. But behind Liang Chuan, there is the shadow of Ding Wei. Everyone is afraid of Ding Wei's methods, and they don't know what's behind this.

Is it Master Ding's instruction? If you offend this traitor, the consequences will not be pleasant.

Liang Chuan's song "Linjiang Xian" at Lu Yijian's farewell banquet was so brilliant that day that everyone was shocked by this rising literary star, which also gave Liang Chuan the qualification to invite them.

It's a pity that such a person is willing to be a watchdog under Ding Wei...

The so-called arrogant literati, Liang Chuan's body exudes a pungent smell of copper, but his talent is true, it is said that there are two poems that shocked the ancient and modern times, which are enough to make them proud of the contemporary Song Dynasty literary world, but I don't know what he did
