In the absence of heavy machinery, digging underground is a very difficult thing, but fortunately, this time Lao Zhu has a resolute attitude and does not dig out the results, and vows not to give up.

He let the officials work for three whole days, after half of the civil officials lay down, Lao Zhu transferred Jinyiwei, let Jiang Zhen personally supervise the work, after half a month, digging and cleaning, in the north of Xuanwu Gate, dig a long 100 zhang, 30 zhang wide, 15 zhang deep pit.

If you stand in a hot air balloon and look down, it's as if the earth has opened its huge mouth to swallow everything.

People woke up from the initial shock and panic, and no one said that this was the entrance to the Netherworld, but this black pit brought thinking was far from being comparable to an illusory myth.

By digging a pit, Yoo Chun proves a very simple fact.

The palace has sunken, and it has nothing to do with the will of heaven.

Lao Zhu listened to the government in Fengtian Palace, and all of them were present in Beijing, and Liu Chun, as the main hero, was only behind several princes, and before Guo Ying and Geng Bingwen and other marquis.

Fortunately, these old generals did not pick on them, on the contrary, they were happy to smile.

"Okay, I already knew that you kid was amazing, this time we were convinced, really convinced!" Although Guo Ying is old, she is tall and dignified, which makes it easy for people to feel close.

"Boy, are you interested in learning from me?" Guo Ying took the initiative to propose.

Liu Chun was stunned for a moment, "Marquis Wuding is willing to teach the kid?" ”

Guo Ying smiled, "Don't you look at Ben Hou and think that my ability is not good?" Without waiting for Liu Chun to speak, Guo Ying said, "Tell you, when I defected to His Majesty, I was His Majesty's personal guard, commanding the army to fight, and the old man may not be as good as Liang Guogong." But when it comes to martial arts, even his brother-in-law may not be able to win me. For so many years, there is only one person who can compete with the old man, and we have really competed in Poyang Lake. ”

Liu Chun blinked, lowered his voice and said, "Master Hou, the person you are talking about can't be Zhang Dingbian, right?" ”

Guo Ying was shocked, "How do you know?" ”

Liu Chun grinned and said, "The kid not only knows, but also learns from him!" It's just that my qualifications are too poor, and the old gentleman can't look down on me. ”

When Guo Ying heard that Zhang Dingbian was really alive, he was shocked. His kung fu is still a step worse than Lao Zhang, I thought that if these people were dead, he could rest assured that he could brag.

I didn't expect that people were still alive, which was a bit embarrassing!

However, Guo Ying's eyes rolled, and he also had an idea.

"Okay, I'll go over and meet my old friends when I have time."

……

They also want to talk about it, Zhu Yuanzhang has already taken Zhu Biao to the palace, and after the hundred officials congratulate him.

Zhu Yuanzhang said to Jiang Xuan: "How are you doing?" Can the cause of the subsidence of the palace be found? ”

Jiang Xuan hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, after half a month of excavation, the minister has cleaned up the surrounding floating soil, revealing the foundation below. According to the minister's inspection, the foundation has sunk seriously, and some places have sunk more than two feet. Underneath the foundation, black mud was tumbling, and stones fell into it, and it was impossible to get out. According to the minister's observation, it should be the mud at the bottom of the Yanque Lake in the past......"

Jiang Zhen patiently explained the situation, Zhu Yuanzhang was relieved, it really had nothing to do with me, it was not God who condemned him, and God warned him...... Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and galloping.

"Humph! Is it my fault that someone is talking nonsense, making a big fuss, and forcing me to make an edict for such an obvious thing? ”

Lao Zhu roared, brushed, and knelt down in a large area, including Wang Rui. His legs trembled, and his heart was filled with bitterness.

It's over now, with Lao Zhu's temper, it is likely that he will give an order, push them outside, and cut off their heads!

Wang Rui raised his head, glanced at Liu Chun, and gritted his teeth viciously!

Little rabbit, even if the old man becomes a ghost, he will not let you go.

Liu Chun didn't care about the life or death of these people, he just wanted to hear what Lao Zhu was going to do?

"I searched for a suitable place to build the palace, and after all kinds of calculations, I finally chose Yanque Lake, and I did not hesitate to spend manpower to fill in the lake, hoping to create a foundation for all generations. Unexpectedly, in just 20 years, the underground mud of the palace was flooded, the foundation was sinking, and the huge palace was no longer difficult. In particular, the palace is low in the north and high in the south, which is not conducive to the monarch's father. I decided to move the capital, what do you think? ”

If it is said that the previous relocation of the capital was Lao Zhu's wish, after this incident, it is already a certainty, and it cannot be ignored.

Zhu Yuanzhang's reasoning is very convincing, the Son of Heaven is in the north, the hundred officials are in the south, and it is natural for the Son of Heaven to accept the congratulations of the hundred officials. But if the foundation of the north collapses, and it becomes low in the north and high in the south, isn't it that the courtier is taller than the king's father?

This will greatly damage the Feng Shui Bureau and be detrimental to the monarch's father.

One might wonder if there is a remedy, or move the imperial city to another location in Jinling...... With the current engineering means, Liu Chun is not optimistic.

When working on soft ground, you need to drive a concrete base underneath to support the building above, so as to be foolproof.

Obviously, this is not a super project that the Ming Dynasty can do.

If you move elsewhere, it's even more difficult.

Over the years, the land of Jinling has been occupied, and there are people everywhere inside and outside the city.

The palace is not the size of a three-room room. It includes twenty-four yamen, and there are so many eunuchs and palace maids, at least one-fifth of Jinling must be requisitioned, if you can't do it, you can't do it, it's better to simply change to a new capital and start all over again!

Therefore, this change has strengthened Lao Zhu's mind to move the capital.

"Since you don't have an opinion, I'll talk about it. Someone proposed to move the capital to Beiping, which was my least favorite plan. Beiping is the capital of the former Yuan Dynasty, and I will restore the Chinese clothes, especially continue to be the emperor in the former capital of the previous dynasty? Therefore, what I mean is to choose one from the capital of the Han and Tang Dynasties as the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and you can all talk about it. ”

Lao Zhu told Liu Chun in advance, don't talk too much, you kid, I won't listen!

Liu Chun could only bow his head and remain silent.

There was no shortage of ministers present who opposed the relocation of the capital, and some wanted to stand up and argue with the emperor.

That's right, there are still courtiers with bones in the Ming Dynasty.

These people were concentrated in the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the General Administration, but when they were about to stand up, they found that there was still a group kneeling on the ground!

Zhu Yuanzhang is also bad enough, he deliberately didn't set off Wang Rui and the others, and put them here as chickens to scare monkeys.

If you dare to stop me from moving the capital, I will go on a killing spree and let you know what it means to be a river of blood. If you can be obedient, everyone will take a step back, and I will spare the lives of Wang Rui and the others.

Lao Zhu is certainly known for being ruthless, but when he plays with intrigues and tricks, he is also proficient in it, without a little fireworks.

Seeing that all the ministers were silent, Lao Zhu showed a victor's smile, and he could finally move the capital with confidence.

At this moment, Wang Rui, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly straightened his back, Liu Chun saw it for the first time, and he said in his heart What is this old man? Do you want to chant Your Majesty's Holy Wisdom?

If it were him, he would have done this, after all, nothing is more important than his life.

But this is Liu Chun's opinion after all.

Wang Rui is already a handful of years, and the continuous setbacks have made the old man extremely depressed, and he is so aggrieved that he vomits blood. In Suzhou, how many people hoped that he could help protect the interests of the gentry, and as a result, Liu Chun was wiped clean.

I wanted to use the induction of heaven and man to force Zhu Yuanzhang to nod, but he was disturbed by Liu Chun again, and instead contributed to the relocation of the capital, which was imperative.

Will the old man only be self-defeating?

Wang Rui is crazy, so far, he doesn't want to fight for his life, and he can't let Lao Zhu move the capital!

"Your Majesty, there are more than 10,000 officials and 300,000 forbidden troops in the capital, and there are 100,000 people in the palace. The world has finally settled down for 20 years, and the capital has been moved on a large scale, not by Renjun, but by the old ministers, ......"

"Enough!" Zhu Yuanzhang shouted angrily, "Do you want to say that I am a faint monarch like the king of Zhou?" ”

Wang Rui hurriedly said, "The old minister doesn't care, the old minister just thinks that the people's livelihood is difficult, the treasury is not abundant, and it is not appropriate to move the capital." Please also Your Majesty to be clear! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang chuckled disdainfully, "I have already thought about it, although the matter of moving the capital, although it will cost some money for the time being, but it has extraordinary benefits for the long-term peace and stability of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Lao Zhu raised the butcher knife again, Wang Rui was stunned for a moment, suddenly trembled, took off the black gauze hat, solemnly put it on the ground, and said sadly, "If Your Majesty insists on moving the capital, please behead the old minister first!" ”
