Instead, Zhu Qiyu was more concerned about the "Cai Temple" and asked: "Rebuild it according to the specifications of the Imperial Ancestral Temple?"
Zhu Qiyu shook his head, "The Ancestral Temple is our ancestral temple, and the Cai Temple is opposite to the Confucian Temple and the Martial Arts Temple. Therefore, according to the scale of the Martial Temple and the Confucian Temple, we can build them all over the country, but we will build one in the capital first, and then get some people to go in."
We cannot let the world see the vegetable temple built specifically for Baozong.
It seems that we, father and son, are narrow-minded.
So after repairing it, first bring in Xia Jie, Shang Zhou, Han Ling, Sui Yang Emperor, and even Qin Hui, Dong Zhuo, etc. This will show the role of the vegetable temple.
Then get Baozong in.
Perfect!
After saying this, Zhu Qiyu was very excited, "It's not that I'm disgusted with the emperor. The key point is that this move can alert the descendants of our old Zhu family, and it can also establish prestige for the ministers and let them know that Qingshi will not only remember the Ten Philosophers of the Martial Temple, etc."
The sages will also remember the treacherous ministers who have caused infamy for thousands of years!"
It can be done.
And it must be done. Don’t be afraid of spending money on this kind of thing.
Zhu Jianji felt relieved.
I was also worried that Lao Zhu would object.
Thinking too much.
After all, they are father and son, and Lao Zhu also has the original intention of becoming a wise king.
He said: "Come to the Ministry of Public Affairs, I have chosen the address. This vegetable temple in Gyeonggi Province is built on the west side of Chengtian Gate, and it is in sharp contrast with the Imperial Ancestral Temple on the left and right."
Zhu Qiyu: "After all, this matter needs to be promoted nationwide. It will be discussed at the court meeting tomorrow. In addition, it must have a name."
Zhu Jianji had a headache, "I just can't think of a name."
It can’t really be called a vegetable temple.
How do you know...
Zhu Qiyu waved his sleeves and said, "Let's call it Cai Temple!"
Zhu Jianji: "..."
Is this settled?
It seems that we, father and son, are so uneducated. If we build a rotten temple, the timiao temple will be superior to the vegetable temple.
While thinking about it, Zhu Qiyu lowered his voice and said, "Nangong, how long did it take you to take action?"
I will support you then.
Or……
I will take the blame for you.
When Zhu Jianji heard Zhu Qiyu's words, he thought, Lao Zhu doesn't want to kill the Baozong, right? If he wants to trick me, will he come in advance to stop me from killing the Baozong?
How can it be as you wish?
He smiled and said: "Let's wait until the vegetable temple is repaired and the foolish kings like Xia Jie and Shang Zhou move in."
Even Emperor Sui Yang might not be able to enter.
After all, the Grand Canal was built, and history's evaluation of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was very polarized.
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Dad supports you!"
…
…
The next day.
Zhu Qiyu proposed the construction of a vegetable temple at the court meeting, but received mixed responses.
There is support, mainly from the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Express strong support!
But there was more opposition.
I think it's a waste of time and money.
In fact, everyone has guessed Zhu Qiyu's intention to build the vegetable temple.
As the emperor, giving an evil posthumous title is already demeaning to the imperial power, but you still set up a vegetable temple. This is to completely drive some foolish emperors into the abyss and never stand up.
Not necessary.
And it also affects your old Zhu family’s image of being the emperor.
Of course, if no one from your old Zhu family enters the Cai Temple, this is just a fart, but it will make the emperor of the old Zhu family even more awesome.
Moreover……
The matter of building the Cai Temple is about the foolish emperors and treacherous ministers, but most of the successors of the ignorant emperors are the sons of the ignorant emperor. If you ask the new emperor to bring the former emperor into the vegetable temple, where has the filial piety gone?
This operation can only be a disparagement of the previous royal family by the contemporary royal family.
But the minister had to consider another situation.
That is to say, this vegetable temple also has some traitors.
This involves everyone's vital interests.
Whether you are a treacherous minister or a loyal minister is not a matter of your being an emperor.
But we ministers have no sons to control all this. After we ministers die, the emperor will put you in the vegetable temple. Who can stop you?
Can't stop it.
Then just go to the Cai Temple obediently and be scolded by the world.
Isn't this deceiving?
Scholars, you don’t want to be among the ten sages of the Martial Temple, but you can be a minister for a lifetime, and you also want to have someone worthy of enjoying the honor of the Imperial Ancestral Temple after your journey to the west. This is the greatest praise and summary of your career.
In the end, Zhu Qiyu was doing well, not to mention worthy of enjoying the Ancestral Temple, which was very difficult.
The vegetable temple is very simple.
Just like Zhu Qiyu said, Qin Hui of the previous dynasty and Wang Zhen of this dynasty both wanted to be in the Cai Temple.
Although Qin Hui was evil, he was linked to the interests of the emperor.
Now that you, Zhu Qiyu, are operating like this, it is worrying. For example, if Yu Shaobao, who has affected your interests, will be brought into the Caishiao Temple by you after his death, is it possible that the rest of the people will also be brought to the Cai Temple?
So there are many opponents.
However……
No one expected that Yu Qian, who had stayed in Gyeonggi Province after taking office, actually wrote a letter saying that this was a wise move by His Majesty.
Yu Qian expresses his support!
This is interesting.
Yu Qian served as the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty, but for the past eight years, he has been a thorn in Emperor Jingtai's side. If anything else involves him, Zhu Qiyu may really bring him to the Cai Temple after his death.
But he actually supported the construction of the vegetable temple.
From a side perspective, this is Yu Shaobao's absolute confidence in his career.
After Yu Qian agreed, Liu Jue and Hang Min, ministers of the Ministry of War, also submitted memorials to express their Majesty's wisdom.
Chen Xun and Wang Wen, two confidants of Emperor Jingtai, probably figured it out - there was nothing they could do. Since Fang Ying's turmoil, they did not wear the same pants as Emperor Jingtai due to military power issues. During this period, Zhu Qiyu made things difficult for them.
repeatedly.
If you don't show your loyalty again, I'm afraid the position of minister will be unstable.
The six ministers and four ministers, together with Xiao Weizhen and Li Shi, the left and right censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and more than half of the seven ministers supported it. Because of Zhao Rong, Jiang Yuan of the Ministry of Industry had been very attentive recently and expressed his support earlier than Yu Qian.
So the matter was settled.
The Ministry of Industry allocated special funds to first build a vegetable temple on the west side of Chengtian Gate in Gyeonggi Province. Later, it was built in various places according to the situation, and it was to be adjacent to the Confucian Temple and the Wu Temple.
Zhu Yong went north to the town, and he was accompanied by Zou Qian, the right minister of the Ministry of War. He not only supervised the army, but was also responsible for the movement of grain and fodder, statistics on the distribution of military pay and other matters. As long as it was related to army logistics, Zou Qian took care of it.
Zhu Yong and Zhao Fu were only responsible for training troops and fighting.
This arrangement is basically a small victory for the civil servant group over the imperial power.
Before the end of the year, good news came frequently from Huguang and Sichuan.
Hang Yu, Tang Xing defeated the rebellion and won a complete victory.
And in this midwinter, when everyone was happy, someone died quietly in the prison of Jin Yiwei.
Zhao Rong!
Rumor has it that he committed suicide by biting his tongue.
But it's not that easy to die by biting your tongue. Even if you bite your tongue off, you're just going to be mute, so you won't die easily.
Therefore, Zhao Rong was either beaten to death by Jin Yiwei or silenced.
Either way, Chang Xiu's clues ended with Zhao Rong.
Later, Zhang Peng, the censor of Qiandu, became the left minister of the Ministry of Industry.
Before the Spring Festival, a vegetable temple was erected.
However, because of the emergence of the Cai Temple, some courtiers lost support for Emperor Jingtai, and there was an undercurrent in the capital, making this year's winter seem to be colder than in previous years.
The chaotic eight years of Jingtai have finally come to an end.
The ninth year of Jingtai came belatedly. This chapter has been completed!
