Prince of Chaos

Chapter 281 A Wave

Xu Guo died.

When Zhu Changluo in the Ciqing Palace got this information, he just oh.

Immediately, Zhu Changluo's face showed a look of grief and said to the reporter: "I'm going to report to my father about the matter of Mr. Xu Ge's driving to the west. Originally, Gu had to go to Xu's mansion to visit Mr. Xu Ge. , I didn't expect Mr. Xu Ge to leave so suddenly, which made Gu feel very sad."

In fact, Xu Guo's death was within Zhu Changluo's expectation, and at the same time, everyone's expectation.

Since the second half of last year, he has been taking a sick account and not going to work.

Although, I survived the cold winter, but it was gone before the warmth of spring and the flowers blooming.It can be seen that his time has really come.

However, regarding Xu Guo's death, Zhu Changluo still felt that it was his blessing.

In the original historical time and space, Xu Guo died in the 24th year of Wanli. Zhu Changluo believes that the reason why Xu Guo lingered on until the 25th year of Wanli.

Perhaps it was because of the appearance of Zhu Changluo that the protracted national-roots struggle was directly ended, which also made the court relatively stable, which made Xu Guo, an old court boss, live for a while longer.

Moreover, he was already in his 70s. In ancient times, when the average life expectancy was 40 to [-] years old, this age was already extraordinary.

Therefore, regarding Xu Guo's death, there was not much shock from the government and the public. After all, he was not the chief assistant, nor was he an important official with power over one side. If he died, he would die.

After finishing the affairs in Ciqing Palace, Zhu Changluo went to Xishan Huangzhuang.

After arriving at Xishan Huangzhuang, Zhu Changluo told Emperor Wanli about Xu Guo's death.

When Emperor Wanli heard that Xu Guo had gone, he didn't have much emotion, so he sighed, "Let the cabinet draw up a posthumous title for him."

Zhu Changluo replied: "Yes, father."

Then for some reason, Emperor Wanli suddenly felt that Xu Guo was coming.

Emperor Wanli said: "Chang Luo, do you know? Xu Guo was a Jinshi in the 44th year of Jiajing, and he is considered a veteran of the three dynasties. Qing, he also served as Prince Zhan Shi, Minister of Rites and Ministry of Officials, and later became Minister of Rites and concurrently served as a scholar of Dongge University. He has experienced more in his life than I have. However, he is also like me. Wandering around in this Beijing city."

Hearing that Emperor Wanli seemed to be lamenting Xu Guo, in fact, he was lamenting himself.

The farthest place he has ever been to in his life is the imperial mausoleum in the suburbs of Beijing, a hundred miles away.

That was when he was young, and he was so exhausted in the Forbidden City that he figured out how to go to the imperial mausoleum to worship his ancestors.The Forbidden City left.Otherwise, he would never think of entering and exiting Beijing so easily in his life.

Thinking about this, Emperor Wanli is actually quite pitiful.

If Zhu Changluo hadn't turned out to create this thriving Xishan Huangzhuang, Emperor Wanli would most likely repeat his previous fate.

In the original historical time and space, Emperor Wanli was disheartened and slack to the extreme because of the failure of the national struggle. Gong didn't go out anymore, and he never took a step outside the Forbidden City until Wanli 20 years later when he went out to a faraway place that he never had to return to.

In addition, he was also extremely negative in terms of slack in politics. Whenever there were vacancies in local officials, Emperor Wanli would ignore them. There is only one elder in the middle who is drying salted fish.The central government has completely fallen into idling.

It is conceivable how desperate the Wanli Emperor in that time and space must have been, he did not hesitate to bury his dead ideal with the future of the empire.It's scary to think about it!
Fortunately, everything has changed now. Although Emperor Wanli is still lazy and doesn't like going to court, at least he has hope in his heart, and his hope is this son in front of him.

This son has given him too much comfort and surprise, and is trying to please him everywhere, making him really feel the joy of being an emperor and being a father.

Therefore, his love for Zhu Changluo has reached the level that Zheng Guifei once had.

Zhu Changluo looked at the inexplicable Emperor Wanli, and he comforted him: "Father, the deceased is dead, we still move on. Xu Ge's life was spent wandering around Beijing, but in the eyes of the world, he Already the pinnacle of an extremely human minister, when the history books are written in the future, he will also be listed alone to describe his life."

After listening to Zhu Changluo's words, Emperor Wanli sighed: "Yes, there will be him in the history of Qianqiu in the future. Of course, there will be Zhen, and there will be you."

After sighing, Emperor Wanli seemed to have calmed down, and he continued: "Go back and talk to the cabinet, let them draw up a decree, donate Xu Guoshaobao and Prince Taibao, and then go to his hometown to build a stone for him. Fang, let him live forever."

Zhu Changluo replied: "Yes."

Then, Zhu Changluo talked with Emperor Wanli again, and finally took Emperor Wanli to Wanli Street for a stroll. After Emperor Wanli's mood completely recovered from the death of Xu Guo, Zhu Changluo hurried back. Arrived at Ciqing Palace.

After arriving at Ciqing Palace, Zhu Changluo immediately summoned the three cabinet elders.

After Shen Shixing and the others came in, Zhu Changluo asked directly: "Give Xu Ge a posthumous title. How did you discuss it?"

Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue Wang Jiaping looked at each other, then bowed back and said, "Return to Your Highness, I discussed with officials from the Ministry of Rites, and finally selected 'Wen Mu', Your Highness please make a decision."

"Wen Mu?"

This is a bit embarrassing for Zhu Changluo. He doesn't know much about the ancient posthumous title culture, so it's really embarrassing for him to suddenly make a decision.

However, Zhu Changluo can also hold his breath, so naturally he can't show his timidity at this time.

Zhu Changluo looked at Shen Shixing and asked, "Why did you give Xu Ge the posthumous title Wenmu?"

Shen Shixing replied: "The law of posthumous posthumous title says: 'Bude holds righteousness as Mu, and Zhongqing sees appearance as Mu. He has helped a lot of ministers who speak out of righteousness, and Xu Ge also contributed to the suppression of the rebellion in Yunnan and Jinchuan. Therefore, the ministers think that 'Wen Mu' is more suitable for Xu Ge's life."

After Zhu Changluo finished listening, he nodded, and then said: "Let's be gentle. In addition, the father also has a will. The father thought of Xu Ge's old and sleepy Fu Zhengguo, and gave Xu Ge a special gift for the old and the young. He was awarded the title of Prince Taibao, and built a memorial archway in his hometown in Shexian County to mark his merits."

After Shen Shixing and others listened to Zhu Changluo's words, they immediately bent down and replied together: "My emperor is holy."

In this way, during the question and answer between Zhu Changluo and the cabinet, a generation of important ministers lived their lives like this, and they were finally concluded.

Thinking about it, his life is nothing more than an inconspicuous wave in this magnificent long river of history.
