The Prime Minister Li Shanchang, General Tang He, and millions of people, built Zhongdu with Fengyang. Unexpectedly, in order to create a large-scale palace, Li Shanchang ordered the transport of beams and woods to the Shu Kingdom. These woods were transported from Sichuan and Shu to Fengyang. The journey was long. Some of the woods were very huge. During transportation, they needed to be installed on a special 32-wheeled truck, which could be pulled by 200 people. Because the big wood was too heavy, the wooden wheel would break when pressed, so they put an iron ring on the wheel. When the big wheel with the iron ring rolled over the stone, the friction made the sparks rise. If you couldn't walk for a mile, the iron ring would be

If it disperses, it has to stop and change the iron ring. Therefore, a car that pulls a large wooden car, in addition to pulling two hundred people, also needs 200 people to follow the iron ring on its shoulders, and stops to change the ring to repair the car from time to time, so it can only take ten miles a day. A large wood is transported from the place of origin to Fengyang. The transportation of water and land requires a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources, which makes the transported wood suffer. Some illegal soldiers, in order to please the commander, have no human and inhumane urging, have heavy labor, and many soldiers die from illness. If you say these sufferings, it is not enough. I don’t know that God looks down on Fengyang.

It is indeed what Liu Bowen said, but the imperial town is not the capital. Since the beginning of last year, the Huai River in Fengyang has been flooded. At the beginning of the year, the flood overflowed the river Haohe River, the largest tributary of Fengyang, into Huai, which made the people of Fengyang miserable. The continuous memorials were handed over, mostly to stop the construction of Zhongdu. He originally thought that someone was confused and ignored it. Until Ye Boju, the Confucian teaching in Pingyao County, Shanxi, submitted a memorial regardless of life and death. The memorial also said: "Now, those who are scholars... regard military farming as a must-have crime, and whipping and hitting Chu as an ordinary humiliation...

If you fall to the law, if you are not punished, you will have to work in the military field. The so-called "take it all and use it as mud and sand... Now Fengyang, where the imperial tomb is located, the place where the dragon rises, and then lead the sinners to live in it, and fill the garden with the sound of complaints and sorrows. "A small Confucian teaching guide dares to write a letter, which shocked him, for fear that the country he had just stood firm, would once again cause turmoil because of his own selfishness. For this reason, at the suggestion of Liu Bowen, I wrote this article "Zhongdu Commitment to Heaven and Earth" to inform the people of the world that he would suspend the construction of Zhongdu and make Yingtian the capital.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not satisfied with Yingtian as the capital. Yingtian lived in the southeast, which was extremely unfavorable to consolidate the northern border. The Tartars still have strength. Once a war broke out, Yingtian's journey was long and the materials and food were difficult to transport. This was something he had always been worried about. However, when the ministers in the court said that Jinling was the most ideal capital, which made Zhu Yuanzhang very angry. In the end, it was the words of military advisor Liu Bowen, which made him finally use Yingtian as the capital for the time being.

"The dragon and tiger linger in Jinling are scattered, and the capital of the emperor is first pulled out as the foundation, and then go out to fight everywhere, advocate benevolence and righteousness, win people's hearts, and do not be greedy for children and jade, as the world is not stable." Tao An also suggested taking Jinling first and facing the four directions according to the situation. Ye Dui also wrote a letter to request the capital of Jinling, and then he could expand the territory of Jiangguang, march into the two Huaihe Rivers, and conquer Mongolia in the north, and retreating to the Yangtze River to defend himself.

It was precisely these words that made him decide to stop the construction of Zhongdu and completely build Jinling as the capital.

After several years of construction, the construction of King Wu’s New Palace was completed on the basis of King Wu’s New Palace. After years of construction, the entire King Wu’s New Palace finally completed the construction project of Jinling City as scheduled, Tucheng, Capital City (city wall), Imperial City (protecting the outer wall of the palace), Palace City (city wall of the palace), Palace, Secretariat, Grand Governor’s Office, Censorate, Taimiao, Great Mound, Square Million Hills and Rivers, Star Observatory, Million Warehouse

, the house of the Duke and Marquis, the barracks of soldiers, the temple of meritorious officials, the temple of emperors, the city gods, the Huitong Hall, the Imperial Academy, the drum tower, the bell tower, the capitals of all dynasties, after the construction of millions of people, Jinling City is also available. At present, the new palace of King Wu is full of palaces, carved beams and painted buildings, thousands of doors and houses, magnificent, magnificent, and magnificent. It is the most perfect palace, and even the capitals of the Tartars are hard to compare with.

After writing the imperial edict, just put down the imperial pen, a small yellow gate walked in with his body bent, carefully handed over the country names and the year names discussed by the ministers, and followed the respective titles of the ancestors of the Zhu family.

Zhu Yuanzhang opened the memorial and saw that the head was a big word "Ming" written by Song Lian.

"The sun and the moon are bright?" Zhu Yuanzhang murmured on his face and nodded slightly. When the country was first set, the military advisor Liu Bowen believed that the sun and the moon were the main sacrifices of the court and were valued by the royal family of all dynasties. Moreover, the New Dynasty started in the south and the Yuan Dynasty started in the north. Based on the theory of yin and yang and five elements, the south was fire and belonged to yang; the north was water, belonged to yin. Then, using fire to control water, yang to eliminate yin, and light to overcome darkness, the Yuan Dynasty would inevitably perish. "As soon as Liu Bowen said this, all the civil and military officials in the court nodded and praised good, and Zhu Yuanzhang also felt that "Ming" was not only grand, but also loud, but more importantly, the word "Zhu Ming" linked the emperor's surname and dynasty title. Although it was coincidental, it was very auspicious. Therefore, they also agreed to use the Ming Dynasty as the name of the new dynasty.

With the national name, the next one is the year name. Song Lian initially chose several years, but Zhu Yuanzhang was not satisfied in the end. He finally believed that the military affairs at the beginning of the country were in full swing. The founding king, the year name was all Zhang Xian's power in martial arts, so he decided to "Hongwu" as the year name, and this year name also brought the heroic spirit of Huaiyou Buyi! So he decided.

Finally, the year name to be pursued by the four ancestors of the Zhu family, namely—

Emperor Xuan Bo Liu (Gao)

Emperor Yizu Heng 49 (Zeng)

Emperor Xizuyu Chuyi (Zu)

Emperor Renzu Chun Shizhen (father)

The four ancestors were all given a temple. "The Emperor Gaozu lived in the middle, the Emperor Gaozu was the first in the east, the Emperor Gaozu was the first in the west, and the Emperor Kao was the second in the east, and all headed south." Each temple was dedicated to the Lord of God, with two rooms in the east and west, and three doors on the side. Each door "has twenty-four halberds, outside the capital palace, south of the main gate, and separately from the zhai..." The two corridors of the main hall were deep, and the meritorious officials were given a sacrifice, and there was a sacred palace supervisor on the left.

After carefully reading it, Zhu Yuanzhang gave the memorial to the eunuch who passed the imperial eunuch and said sternly: "Give this memorial to the Secretariat Li Gaoguo, let him tell the world!"

"Yes!" The eunuch bowed and took the memorial and respectfully left the study.

"Give me an order!" Zhu Yuanzhang squinted his eyes and shouted coldly: "Tomorrow, I will reward the meritorious ministers in Fengtian Palace!"
