Chapter 346 Emperor Jiajing emo
According to Zhu Zaijing's order, Lu Bing, Hai Rui, Gao Gong and others also became active.
As the person in charge of this matter, Zhu Zaijing has always stayed in his palace without taking any action.
Because Zhu Zaijing is also reflecting on the strangeness of this matter.
Why did it start to burn?
Although fires in imperial palaces during the Qing Dynasty were commonplace, such frequent fires cannot be completely attributed to seemingly normal but tricky reasons such as lightning strikes and accidental fires.
You must know that from ancient times to the present, apart from accidents and wars, there are still many ancient buildings handed down from generation to generation that can last for thousands of years without incident.
Is it just that these ancient buildings have better luck than the Forbidden City?
Obviously this reason is untenable.
Because almost all ancient Chinese buildings are made of brick and wood structures, and some are even pure wood structures.
Can these buildings really stay lucky?
Obviously, it cannot be explained by just using the word lucky.
What is more important is safety awareness and prevention awareness.
But compared to those ancient buildings that are "wild" in various places, which place has a higher security awareness than the heavily guarded royal palace?
It can be seen from this that all ancient palaces caught fire and crashed, except for those palaces in the past dynasties that were unlucky enough to be caught on fire by lightning or damaged by war.
In most palaces, such serious fire incidents occurred during relatively peaceful years.
There must be some hidden secret.
Could it be that someone stole too many things from the palace and wants to write off the account?
Of course, this speculation is not unfounded by Zhu Zaijing, but is based on facts.
In the history before Zhu Zaijing traveled through time, Zhu Zaijing knew a historical record about the fire in the Forbidden City.
After the Qing emperor abdicated, according to the preferential treatment regulations of the royal family at that time, Emperor Xuantong could continue to live in the Forbidden City after his abdication.
Although Emperor Xuantong grew up, he lost the opportunity to rule the world like his ancestors.
But the wealth he possesses is beyond the reach of ordinary so-called rich people.
But even if such a huge wealth only belongs to him, an "emperor" who does not live up to his name, then it will definitely attract others to covet him.
The first people who will covet his property are the young eunuchs and old maids who serve in the Imperial Palace.
When these people serve an abdicated master like Xuantong on a daily basis, they naturally have less respect.
Therefore, the wealth belonging to Xuantong himself was naturally targeted by these people.
So for a period of time, these young eunuchs and old palace maids often stole calligraphy, paintings, gold, silver and other objects in the palace to exchange for money.
As time goes by, the hole gets bigger and bigger.
At this time, Emperor Xuantong, who had gradually grown up, naturally also had the intention to value his wealth.
Therefore, in order to protect his wealth from being stolen by these palace people, the impatient Emperor Xuantong had to count how much of his family heirloom collection he still had.
As a result, this count was not important. As soon as the count was taken, the treasure palace he wanted to count was counted.
It can be seen that sometimes palace fires are more caused by greed.
But what kind of wealth does the Wanshou Palace, where Emperor Jiajing lived, have people so attracted to? After all, the current Emperor Jiajing is not the Emperor Xuantong who abdicated hundreds of years later. The power and life and death he can control can greatly intimidate the slaves and servants in the palace.
Therefore, the question Zhu Zaijing is thinking about now is why palaces in the Ming and Qing dynasties were so prone to fires.
Did someone steal Emperor Jiajing’s elixir? Are you afraid that Emperor Jiajing will find out the number?
So you took advantage of the opportunity when Emperor Jiajing was out to order the Longevity Palace?
But this reason seems difficult to establish.
After all, Emperor Jiajing’s elixir is not something that ordinary people with poor fortune can bear.
There are many celebrities and emperors in history who took drugs to cultivate immortality, but there is specific information recording that Emperor Jiajing was the only one who could live to the age of sixty while taking drugs to cultivate immortality.
So, Zhu Zaijing absolutely did not believe that someone was thinking about Emperor Jiajing’s elixir.
But what happened to the Wanshou Palace?
There has been no rain or thunder in the past two days, and Emperor Jiajing is not in Xiyuan Palace, so naturally no one else can enter and leave the Wanshou Palace normally.
So where did this fire start?
Zhu Zaijing also thought hard about this issue and had no clue.
After all, Zhu Zaijing did not deliberately want to frame anyone, so when Zhu Zaijing asked people to investigate the Xiyuan fire, he naturally could not make an inference of guilt in advance and suggest that Lu Bing went to investigate someone So and so.
You must know the consequences of this. Once any accident occurs, even if Zhu Zaijing is the only son of Emperor Jiajing, he may not be able to survive it.
After all, history is like iron!
Even if Li Er, Zhu Si and others deliberately beautify the process of usurping the throne, they cannot erase what they have done. History will still truthfully record that their throne was not obtained through serious channels. .
Therefore, wise kings and heroes will be treated in this way. If Zhu Zaijing, a prince who is not even a prince, dares to assume a result and let people make inferences of guilt, he will be kicked out.
Even if Zhu Zaijing reaches the throne in the 95th year, he will not be able to regain the hearts of the people.
People in the world will only remember that this emperor is an insidious person who will do anything at all.
Obviously, this result is not what Zhu Zaijing is happy to see.
Therefore, at this time, Zhu Zaijing could only use his advantage of lying flat and arrange the specific matters for Lu Bing and others to investigate. When they found out the results, Zhu Zaijing would be responsible. Just leave it to Emperor Jiajing.
As for whether there may be any conspiracy or other considerations, that is the matter of Emperor Jiajing.
So, sometimes as a human being, you should not be too proactive. You should lie down and let the leader make the decision. This is the long-term solution.
Zhu Zaijing stayed peacefully in his mansion for two days, and Emperor Jiajing's chariot finally returned belatedly from the Changping Imperial Mausoleum.
The majestic emperor's guard of honor stretches for dozens of miles, and it is impossible to see from the beginning to the end, demonstrating the emperor's supremacy everywhere.
But even with such a supreme position, sometimes there are many helpless moments.
Emperor Jiajing was sitting in a large dragon boat that was as big as a luxury car. He looked depressed when he looked at the Xiyuan Fire Investigation Report jointly submitted by Zhu Zaijing and Lu Bing.
Wanshou Palace is a place where Emperor Jiajing lived and expressed his feelings.
Otherwise, Emperor Jiajing would not have given himself the title of "Emperor of Longevity". This shows how emo Emperor Jiajing felt when the palace was burned
