I am the king of the dead

Chapter 998 Journey to the great road, the world is for the public

Yu Qian took Zhu Jiancheng along for a long time, and it was not long until the first railway from Beiya to Nanya in Daming was completed, and when the construction of the Pinglu Canal was completed, Yu Qian took Zhu Jiancheng to prepare to return to the capital.

In the spring and February of the 25th year of Jingtai, peach blossoms and pear blossoms were full of trees, white clouds lived in the sky, the ice melted, and the river flowed under the bridge. Yu Qian, who returned to Jining from Luntai City, took 23-year-old Zhu Jiancheng to sit After getting on the Taian No. [-] train, it slowly came towards Xuanfu and Juyongguan.

Yu Qian is 77 years old. He worked for the Ming Dynasty in the early years. He served in the local government for 25 years, which consumed a lot of his energy. He is now in a wheelchair. Yu Qian, who has spent countless efforts for Daming, already needs others to push him forward at the age of 77.

Yu Qian's Confucian robes are extremely neat, just as clean as he has been in his whole life.

To this day, all of Yu Qian's belongings are rewarded by His Majesty the Emperor. The Jiuzhong Hall, Iron Book Army, Coachman, Nursing Court, Field Acres, and titles are all rewarded by the current Emperor Ming. Yu Qian has hereditary iron coupons, that is to say , the title of the Duke of Jin can rest with the state.

Yu Qian's son, Yu Mian, had six daughters. In the seventh year of Jingtai, the governor of Yu Qian, Jun Guogong Chen Mao, made a triumphant military affairs triumph. This son, the Duke of Jin has been inherited.

"Mr. Yu?" Zhu Jiancheng called Yu Qian softly. The sound of the train wheels colliding with the rails was extremely noisy, but Yu Qian kept leaning on the back of the chair, closing his eyes and resting his mind, which made Zhu Jiancheng a little worried.

Yu Qian had gray temples, even with the imperial physician accompanying him, Zhu Jiancheng was still a little worried.

Yu Qian opened his eyes and carefully identified it. Seeing Zhu Jiancheng's worried expression, he smiled and said, "I'm a little motion sick."

"We'll be in Xitu City in half an hour, and counting the time, father has already arrived in Xitu City." Zhu Jiancheng was sitting beside Yu Qian, a very respectful disciple, and he reminded Yu Qian that His Majesty, who is busy with official duties, is busy. After taking time out, I came to Xitu City.

Zhu Jiancheng never felt that his father came to pick him up, the crown prince, back home. His father came to pick up Yu Qian. When he toured the south of Beijing, Wang Fu also returned to Beijing on the same day. The next day, the crown prince met his emperor's father.

"Well." Yu Qian has done everything he can do, and even went to the Western Regions. He actually wanted to go to Samarkand and then return to Beijing, but when he walked to Luntai, Yu Qian had already noticed There is something wrong with his body, if he went to Samarkand, he might not be able to return to the capital safely.

Regarding Yu Qian's physical condition, the imperial physician accompanying the imperial hospital would send a pigeon letter to the capital every day.

The whistle blew, and Yu Qian took the train pulled by Tai'an No. 47 and slowly entered the station. The [-]-year-old Emperor Ming became more mature and stable. In the middle, the hem of Wu Bian's uniform is rolled up.

Standing on Zhu Qiyu's left is Ran Siniang, a senior medical officer of the Imperial Hospital with superb medical skills, and has now become the judge of the Imperial Hospital.

Lu Zicai and Xin Kejing passed away one after another and were buried in the Daming Jinshan Cemetery. The deaths of Lu Zicai and Xin Kejing were dedicated to medicine. The two died in the battle against the disease in order to study serum vaccines.

Zhu Qiyu held a grand funeral and asked the third prince to preside over it, and the Ministry of Rites gave him a posthumous title.

That was the only time Zhu Qiyu got angry after 20 years in Jingtai. The sergeants and bureaucrats in the court felt that it was unseemly to give the posthumous title to the cheap industry.

These four scholar-bureaucrats were editors of the Hanlin Academy. They themselves, their families, and their children and grandchildren had all received favors from Lu Zicai and Xin Kejing. Gou Dongxi saved his life, but Gou Dongxi didn't think about the grace of saving his life, and refuted the emperor's posthumous title with his cheap career.

Zhu Qiyu wished to cut off the dog, but because he wrote a letter about something, and the matter was involved in the way of talking, he had to exile all four of them to the north of Tianshan Mountain in the name of injustice, and refused to let the Luntai City Huimin Medicine Bureau give the four Home diagnosis and treatment.

Ran Siniang had already become a giant in the apricot forest of Daming.

Ran Siniang, who is 42 years old, does not look old. She is well maintained. She has been waiting.

However, this attempt never came to fruition, and the well-maintained Ran Siniang still favored the harem.

On the right hand side of the emperor is Shi Heng. Shi Heng is about the same age as Yu Qian, and he is no longer able to lead the Ming emperor, but at this moment, he can still stand upright beside the emperor, escorting His Majesty's Tai'an train.

He and Lin Zongbing officer Yang Hanying were dying before he could see this guy with the rebellious back of his head, who became An Lushan of Ming Dynasty. When Yang Hanying was leaving, he also saw his son who was sent to Guangxi. The son of Jinshi, he inherited Yang Hanying's position as general officer of Helin.

Shi Heng is now much thinner than before, but he is still in good spirits. Although he is sore and itchy in winter due to war injuries, he can still hold on.

Yang Jun, the Duke of Ying, took the throne after his triumphant return. Yang Jun's title was not like that of Shi Heng and Yu Qian. It was earned by Shi Heng and Yu Qian. Yang Jun's His father, Yang Hong, was conferred the title of Marquis of Changping by the Ming Dynasty, and he gave it to the Duke of Ying after his death, and Yang Jun justifiably put the title of Duke of the Kingdom into his own family.

British Duke Zhang Mao and Cheng Guogong Zhu Yi stood at the back. They are outstanding representatives of young generals. They are young. Even the youngest Zhang Mao is 34 years old and has become the mainstay of Ming Dynasty. Zhang Mao still wins. Without Zhu Yi, in all these years of competitions to win the championship banner, Zhang Mao lost in a daze.

Huoxunhou Wang Fu was the only civil official present, and of course he was present as a nobleman. Wang Fu had already secured his position as Minister of the Ministry of War. Daming was planning the final blow for the big cannibal entrenched in Luzon, and Wang Fu In a few days, he will go to Nanya and transfer to Songjiang Prefecture to go to sea to conquer Luzon.

The door of the car opened slowly, and the Tiqimen led the big cockroaches to stand in two rows, and locked the big cockroaches to block the cold spring wind.

Zhu Jiancheng pushed Yu Qian out of the carriage.

"Your Majesty is too old to perform the full salute. Please forgive me." Yu Qian wanted to stand up, but he couldn't stand up, so he had to sit on a swivel chair to salute.

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "It's been five years since I left. Those who didn't know thought that you, Yu old man, took my prince to Jianguo."

"Grow up." Zhu Qiyu patted Zhu Jiancheng on the shoulder, motioning him to get out of the way and push himself.

Back then Yu Qian helped him sit on the dragon chair, but now Yu Qian couldn't walk anymore, Zhu Qiyu pushed him forward.

Ran Siniang cut Yu Qian's pulse for a while, her eyes were a little dim, she watched the emperor pursing his lips, with some tears in his eyes, so what if he has excellent medical skills?So what if she holds the theory of human medicine?If you can't keep it, you can't keep it.

Zhu Qiyu forced a smile, and said to Yu Qian, "I'll think of a way."

"Birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature." Yu Qian said quite openly.

Zhu Qiyu pushed Yu Qian towards his big driver, and said with a smile: "Yu Shaobao has been away for five years, and a lot of things have happened in Daming. Shijing Factory does not dig coal now, because the underground water subsides when digging coal. , which caused the difficulty of water supply to the capital. The railway from Datong to Xuanfu and Xuanfu to the capital through Juyongguan was opened, and the coal supply was stable. The Shijing Factory was converted into an ordnance factory. "

"Daming has more than 30 official factories affiliated to the Ministry of Industry, all of which have been designated as special zones. There are nearly a thousand official factories affiliated to the state government roads. The operation is probably good. Li Binyan, this guy, the audit is really merciless , a third-rank Hubu Zuo Shilang fell in the middle of the court, and that is Shen Yi's direct descendant."

"Shen Yi has also signed up to be an official."

Shen Yi was old, he was a few years younger than Jin Lian, after Mu Yangbo Jin Lian left, and Zhang Feng Wude was beheaded, Shen Yi had carried the burden for more than ten years, but he couldn't carry it anymore.

"Jiang Yuan and Chen Ruyan left, they left last winter, and they didn't make it through." Zhu Qiyu pushed Yuqian onto the big driver's seat, and after waiting for everyone to get on the car, he felt a little sentimental.

Chen Ruyan made Xian Jiangyuan, and then he was appointed as the governor of Liangjiang, and went to Dianbaigang City, Guangzhou.

Jiang Yuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, lived in Beijing after he became an official. He died at the age of 74.

"Where's Xu Youzhen?" Yu Qian asked with a smile.

Zhu Qiyu became angry when he mentioned Xu Youzhen, shook his head and said: "This old Xu head, when he returned to Beijing last year, I let him stay in the capital to take care of him. I just saw that he was old, and if he kept running around like this, don't die here before he arrives. On the way, the courtiers still have to scold me for being ignorant and ungrateful?"

"Well, he is fine. He is not grateful. He went out of Beijing overnight and is still supervising the dredging of 20 miles of waterways. He is 68, and he still thinks he is young? He fell a few days ago and broke his arm. At this age, he fell It was such a big deal, I stopped his dispatch and replaced someone to control the water."

Yu Qian looked at the emperor and just smiled. The emperor of Ming Dynasty was really twisted towards Xu Youzhen. On the one hand, he really didn't like Xu Youzhen.

Zhu Qiyu continued: "I don't know what to say about this maritime trade matter, and Yu Shaobao also commented on it. At the beginning, we agreed, everyone went to rob, right? It’s construction, what a construction, a circle around the plantation, isn’t this a flesh and blood mill, isn’t that money rushing into your pocket? Hey, no!”

"Especially Zhu Jianji. He built a huge city in India! He even named it Chongming City. I can see that he just wants to be emperor. I have thought out the name of the country for him. It is called Chongming. The emperor is still my own." Just type it out."

"How is King Yi?" Yu Qian asked Zhu Jianshen.

Zhu Qiyu looked out of the window full of emotion and said: "Last year, there was a news that it had taken root, so I didn't believe it anymore. People from all over the world are also cruel. I sent 25 yuan of caramel to Liberty City, the king of Portugal My brother-in-law, Kuai Lin, told me that he has already been sent to Bei Dazhou, and we don’t know if it has been delivered, but the child has flown away, so we are not close.”

"The third prince went to Peru. He left in June last year. The child followed his mother with a wild heart in his heart. We reminded him ten thousand times, and hoped that when we died, it would be good if we didn't hear the news of his death."

Zhu Qiyu kept nagging, talking about Daming, Yu Qian would occasionally answer something, most of them nodded with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I'm probably going to leave." Yu Qian said with a smile: "I can still see life, old age, sickness and death. It's better to live clearly than to die in a daze."

"The minister is famous all over the world for his straightness, and the minister has advice."

"Let's talk about it when the health is better." Zhu Qiyu waved his hand and said, "I'll let the Imperial Hospital think of a way."

Yu Qian said with a smile: "This means that the kings of all dynasties probably regarded the world as their own selfishness, right and wrong, and only judged it on their own. They really answered the sentence, pulling out a hair to benefit the world, and doing nothing. But I am determined not to do that to serve the whole world, and not to take it."

Yang Zhu's theory is two sentences, but those who are refined and self-interested will only do the first sentence, and will never do the second sentence. This is one of the reasons why Yang Zhu's theory only leaves a few sentences in the end.

Yu Qian leaned on the back of the chair and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, nothing in the world is selfish, and no one is selfish. At the beginning of life, everyone is selfish and everyone benefits. Only Your Majesty has a public ear! Your Majesty has done it. The minister saw it. It was time for the Lord of England, and the Ming Dynasty was revived, and the minister also saw it."

"Your Majesty's road trip, the world is a public, and the ministers have to serve you, and the ministers are very fortunate."

"Your Majesty, I have a worry. I am overbearing. In the past, Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty made Yang Yuhuan a noble concubine at the age of 60. The great Tang Dynasty was torn apart. The system of the Ming Dynasty is all tied to the king. I implore Your Majesty to use history as a mirror."

This was Yu Qian's last worry. He was afraid that after he left, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty would become more and more impatient with the state affairs. It will be very difficult and difficult.

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "If I am impatient, I will hand over the country to the prince to supervise the country. I have gone to the south for more than ten years, and I have not been there for more than ten years. I'm going to see them."

Yu Qian smiled, His Majesty is a wise master, since he has promised, he will naturally not ignore state affairs.

Yu Qian looked at the kite outside the window, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Fortunately, His Majesty came to Daming, and if you shake the court again, the roc will rise with the same wind in one day and soar up to [-] miles. Take another look."

"The sun and the moon are always there, and the mountains and rivers are always shining."

The car stopped in front of the Juxian Pavilion in the lecture hall, and did not move for a long time.

Ran Siniang stepped forward, felt her pulse, and after a long silence, said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Yu Shaobao has left."

"I know, I know." Zhu Qiyu nodded, he was still sitting there motionless, as a king, he couldn't be weak or cry.

"Your Majesty..." Ran Siniang knew exactly what the emperor was worried about, because the imperial physicians who accompanied Yu Qian and Zhu Jiancheng to the west reported Yu Qian's physical condition through the pigeon road every day, and the emperor had to ask Ran Siniang himself about the situation.

That anxiety is genuine.

"I'm fine, I'm fine." Zhu Qiyu sat for nearly half an hour before standing up and saying: "Collect the funeral, I will personally preside over the official funeral."

Yu Qian died at the age of 77 in front of the Juxian Pavilion in the Jiangwu Hall. The next day, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty issued an edict to posthumously designate Yu Qian as the King of Jin'an. Mausoleum, ranked first, with imperial Shinto inscriptions, portraits hanging from the pavilion of meritorious officials, and enjoying the Taimiao.

This is the Jingtai period, the only courtier who entered the Taimiao Temple, was both a martial artist and a civil servant.

Zhu Qiyu sent envoys in yellow clothes out of Beijing to offer sacrifices to the Wuyue mountains and rivers, and King Jin'an of the Ming Dynasty passed away.

The coffin was parked in the Jiuzhong Hall for three days. Zhu Qiyu arrived at an auspicious time. After reading the eulogy he had written, he looked at the coffin and said loudly: "Send it to Shaobao!"

Tianyu Lunyin, the generals of the Han Dynasty shouted in unison: "Send it to Shaobao!"

Daming Tiqi raised his long gun and fired three shots into the sky. The coffin was slowly lifted, and Shi Heng, the loyal Duke who had a life-and-death enmity with Yu Qian, carried the coffin on the left.

Zhu Qiyu went to Jiuzhong Hall to see off his ministers, but he could only watch Yu Qian's coffin drift away.

The coffin of Shaobao walked along the road, and the people crowded both sides, crying loudly. When the coffin reached Deshengmen, the eighteen black dragon guns of the Ming Dynasty began to fire in unison, and the sound went straight to the sky.

Ran Siniang was worried about the emperor's situation, so she searched everywhere, and finally found His Majesty the Emperor in Fengtian Hall at sunset.

There was no lamp in Fengtian Hall, and it was pitch black, only Xing'an held a palace lantern, which was not very bright, Xing'an was a little sad, since Yu Shaobao left, His Majesty has not said much.

Ran Siniang asked tentatively: "Your Majesty..."

Zhu Qiyu swayed, and said with a smile: "I'm fine. I was here at the beginning. When Yu Shaobao said that sentence, he didn't think about it. If he said this sentence, it would be just Can I be enthroned?"

"If King Jili is captured, there is no way to deal with it in the Oirat army. If I ascend the throne, he will have to bear the crime of abolishing the emperor."

"Fortunately, in 26 years, I finally protected him. I am very glad that Yu Shaobao started well and ended well. It shows that what the emperor did...is not bad."

"Your Majesty is wise and wise. Da Ming has today's scene, and he all depends on the Holy Lord. This is what Yu Shaobao said." Ran Siniang was relieved now. Although His Majesty's tone was a little weak, he was finally willing to speak.

"That's good." Zhu Qiyu also smiled when he heard that, and his figure shook again.

"That's good." Zhu Qiyu swayed twice again, his feet softened, and he leaned to the left, trying to hold on to the vermilion pillar, and fell to the ground a little far away.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" bursts of eager shouts came.

Zhu Qiyu was ill, not very seriously ill, mainly because he ate little food for three days, was exhausted physically and mentally, and when the cold spring wind blew, he contracted a cold.

The disease has lasted for a month. Zhu Qiyu, 47, is no longer in the prime of his life, but after many years of military training, he has a solid foundation and survived.

Prince Zhu Jiancheng was ordered to oversee the country, and Xiang Wang Zhu Zhanqian finally stopped listening to music at the theater on Qianmen Street. He served as Prime Minister for one month, and when the emperor recovered from his illness, he immediately went to write at Qianmenlou.

Zhu Zhanqian was also old and couldn't walk anymore. He said he was going to the Western Regions, but he didn't go.

The crown prince supervised the country for one month, and he handled it to a certain extent. Even if there was something he didn't know, he could ask the fifth grandfather, and he could also go to the backyard of the martial arts hall to ask the emperor how to deal with it.

"Your Majesty, there is news from Huguang Hankou that Xu Youzhen fell so badly that she couldn't make it through. Seven days ago, she died on the construction site of the Yangtze River Bridge." Zhu Qiyu returned to the imperial study room of the lecture hall and heard a very bad news. .

Xu Youzhen also left.

Zhu Qiyu frowned and said: "What did I say! You are so old, don't be brave, didn't he fall and hurt? Let him stay idle, what is he doing on the construction site? Really, disobedient. Just a little They are not obedient."

"Let's go now? I also said that he was asked to return to Beijing to replace the Minister of the Ministry of Workmanship." Zhu Qiyu said a little frustrated. After all these years, this hardcore southward migration faction back then became the Dragon King of Daming. There are countless people, and the flood control has been controlled for 25 years, and finally died on the construction site.

"Let the Ministry of Rites give him a posthumous title, posthumously confer the title of Lord Pingbo Boliu, and enshrine his two sons as inactive officials, and let them be buried in Jinshan Cemetery."

"Let him stay away from my imperial mausoleum."

Zhu Qiyu's attitude towards Xu Youzhen was so twisted, until the day of Xu Youzhen's death, he still didn't let go of it.

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing. The Duke of Zhong, Shi Dadu, is also ill. He has been ill for almost a month, and..." Xing'an didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning was very clear. Shi Heng probably couldn't hold on anymore.

Shi Heng had been angry with Yu Qian for half his life. Although the Guanshan Forum reconciled, Shi Heng persisted until Yu Qian left first, and finally his heart disappeared, and he fell ill.

"I'll go and have a look." Zhu Qiyu didn't deal with the memorandum, stood up and hurried towards Duke Zhong's mansion.

In the 25th year of Jingtai, the year when the earth cracked, Shaobao Yuqian, Duke of Jin, Shi Heng, Duke of Zhong, and Xu Youzhen, Duke of Pingbo, passed away one after another.

　Send it to Shaobao.
