Chapter 323: The Depressed Sea and Sorrowful Mountain I often think of witty words to explain to you when I hear the reward.

"Drink a cup of tea, your majesty can refresh yourself!" Shunya worked in a room in Ganqing Palace, and was in charge of the funds of the gangs as Queen Sun wanted. She learned about the information of the original gang members and the activities of bandits to rescue concubines with Tan Juan, and reported to Queen Sun about the situation. Li Chong agreed to jointly build a restaurant with Tan Juan and build a fabric factory that accommodates dozens of concubines. The reconstruction project has started. Ning Xiaoying's note was not He Ke organized to assassinate. Empress Sun asked Shunya to find Tan Juan to find out if the Wanshi bandits were good. Move? Shunya came back and said that there was no such phenomenon. This phenomenon occurred during the emperor's wedding. Once it was leaked, it would cause the empress dowager to be dissatisfied and suspicious of the emperor, for fear that the empress dowager would say that the emperor was an unfilial son. Therefore, Empress Sun joined forces with the empress dowager to make careful arrangements. The bandits wanted to try hard to save Luo Heihu, and Empress Sun sent Shunya away from the living room. The emperor came in with a tired look on the dragon chaise, leaning on the back of the chair and closed his eyes to rest, with a faint depression mixed with his face. Empress Sun came to the emperor and said with concern and smile.

"Okay!" the emperor said without opening his eyes.

"Meijing sends you a cup of tea!" The maid stood outside the living room door, and Empress Sun whispered loudly at the door.

"Please ask the emperor, the queen will use tea!" Mei Jing put the tea on the tea table, finished talking to the emperor and Empress Sun who was standing aside, and withdrew and stood outside the door.

"The queen sits." The emperor opened his eyes, patted his hand beside him, and took a cup of water and said.

"Yeah!" The depression on the emperor's face would disappear in his smile, but it still vaguely appears when he doesn't smile. He often wants to eliminate the emperor's symptoms. Empress Sun has asked the emperor many times that he doesn't admit that he is depressed. She sat next to the emperor because she asked again and wanted to listen to the emperor's words.

"Emperor Li Chong, Luo Ren, go and ask the Empress Dowager to release Luo Heihu. The bandits posted those slogans that endangered the ancestral system of the dynasty and had a great impact on society! The Empress Dowager did not agree, so let him talk about it after the trial." The emperor said depressedly.

"What the Empress Dowager said?" Queen Sun asked with a smile.

"I heard from others." The depression worsened, and the emperor forced a smile.

"Ah!" Empress Sun was casually worried.

"Report! Wang Ji, Minister of War, Wang Qiang, Censor, and pay homage to the emperor." Cao Jixiang came in to report.

"Please!" The emperor looked at Empress Sun and said solemnly.

"I'm avoiding me?" asked Empress Sun.

"I will listen to the reward when I am sobbing in the sea!" the emperor said depressedly.

"Sorry!" asked Empress Sun.

"Sit down and listen!" said the emperor.

"Your Majesty is sad, please listen to it again another day?" The meaning of the idiom: Sorrow is like a mountain, and depression is like a sea. It describes depression as big as a mountain, as deep as a sea, and cannot be relieved. Source: Shi Hui's "Records of the Secluded Boudoir? Thirty-Two Tassels Worship on the Moon". Empress Sun said with concern.

"Suppress the rebels, Zhang Puxiang's affairs!" The emperor said sadly. Empress Sun sat upright next to the emperor, wanting to listen to the report and observe the expression on the emperor's face. The emperor's depression was not only a mortal, but also other factors of depression. Empress Sun thought about it and summarized it.

"My dear Wang Ji, please pay homage to the emperor, Empress, long live my emperor, long live my empress. Empress, thousand years old!" Wang Ji and Wang Qiang came in together and knelt down and said.

"Your dear!" the emperor said to the two of them.

"Thank you, Empress!" the two of them stood up together.

"Report to the Emperor! This is the whole process of pacifying Zhang Puxiang's rebels. Please read the memorial." Wang Ji looked at Wang Qiang and said to the emperor first, and submitted a memorial respectfully.

"Come!" said the emperor.

"Please read it!" Jin Ying stood at the door, walked up and took Wang Ji's memorial, handed it to the emperor and said.

"All the first offenders were killed?" The emperor took it and looked through the memorial, asking absent-mindedly, Jin Ying stood on the side of the dragon throne.

"Yes.

I will obey Your Majesty’s order. The aftermath of the war will be reported by the Censor Wang Qiang, and there will be another report." Wang Ji looked at Wang Qiang on the side and said with a deliberately smile.

"I am afraid of cutting the grass, but I don't get rid of the roots, and I'm like a case of causing trouble with Wu Mianer..." The emperor actually talked about this: In June of the 11th year of Hongwu (1378), the dynasty was not completely destroyed, which caused trouble. In June of the 18th year of Hongwu, Wu Mianer raised an army again and called the "King of Shattering", which caused a very bad impact in that area. The dynasty continued to encircle and suppress. During the Xuande period, Wu Mianer's grandson Wu Ren'er and Guangxi Buta County Magistrate, organized a group of people to make trouble. The dynasty made trouble in the case of Wu Mianer's encirclement and suppression, and the rioters continued for decades, which not only caused trouble to the dynasty but also endangered the living order of the common people in that area. The emperor closed the memorial in his hand, and his depressed face worsened. Empress Sun looked at the emperor and thought in his heart, how to persuade and treat the emperor's depression?

"Report to the emperor, I have a memorial, please read it!" Wang Qiang held the memorial in his hand and made a respectful presentation.

"Please read it!" Jin Ying approached and took Wang Qiang's memorial and handed it to the emperor.

"Wang Qiang remembers the principle of aftermath?" Looking through the memorial, the emperor asked casually.

"The main evil will be punished by accomplices. Those who follow the threat should be treated lightly. Those who are deceived will be treated lightly." Wang Qiang said.

"How many evil people?" the emperor asked.

"Zhang Puxiang was killed alone," said Wang Qiang.

"How many accomplices?" asked the emperor.

"A total of 14 people were executed together!" Wang Qiang said.

"A person who is threatening?" The emperor nodded in praise, and then asked with a memorial.

"2306 people: First, they wrote a letter of self-regret and entered into personal files. Second, those who are willing to work in agriculture will be demoted to common people and issued their original hometown as farmers. Third, those who are willing to stay in the army will have a total of 2,003 people: 1. The court ordered officials to be demoted to five levels; within five years, they will not be promoted. 2. Those who are not demoted to soldiers will be demoted to soldiers. 3. Those who stay in the army will be dispersed to grassroots levels by passing through the Ministry of War. Each department in the five cities has a quota, which is very balanced. Once they are dispersed, their morale will be gone, and they will not be threatened to take up positions in each department." Wang Qiang said with a smile.

"How many people are deceived?" asked the emperor.

"1301 people, let's take a lighter attack!" Wang Qiang said.

"How to be gentle?" asked the emperor.

"That is, first, register and record the book according to the person: name, age... and deposit it into personal files. Second, persuade people to return to their hometowns to work as farmers. Third, provide appropriate travel expenses for those who have long journeys and are from extremely poor families. Fourth, those who want to stay in the army will write a letter of repentance and store personal files. Officials will be demoted to three levels and will not be reused for three years. If the rank is not enough, please persuade them to return to work as farmers." Wang Qiang said smoothly.

"Okay! The two of them made great contributions to doing this. Wang Qiang is especially civil and organized... He was given Wang Qiang and changed his name to 'Wang Wen!'" At the end of the Xuande year (1434), Zhang Puxiang, the Zhending Guard, used the White Lotus Sect to "convince the crowd with demonic books", called himself the "Seven Buddhas Master", and sent party members to save people in Henan, Shandong, Shanxi, Beizhili and other places, and agreed to "take Zhangde City first and then attack Zhucheng", which formed an anti-civilian riot, and was executed after the failure. During this period, after Wang Qiang was ordered to hear the case of the "Zhang Puxiang Case", Emperor Xuande said excitedly after hearing the report.

"I thank the emperor and gave him the name Wang Wen, thank the emperor, the empress, and the great kindness!" Wang Qiang knelt down to the emperor and the empress, and said sincerely.

"Wang Aiqing is calm!" the emperor said with a smile.

"Wang Wen's name is well given by Your Majesty!" Wang Ji looked complimented and smiled at Empress Sun.

"Yes!" Wang Qiang agreed. The reason why the emperor changed Wang Qiang's name was based on the excuse of Wang Qiang's report. The emperor did not want the ministers named Wang to be stronger than the emperor, so he asked Wang Qiang to call him Wang Wen. The emperor and Empress Sun had said this before, and Empress Sun recalled it.

"Two dear friends, I have heard of it, punishing the past and preventing the future..." The emperor

The emperor probably remembered something, and talked about the intention of punishing the past and preventing future troubles and allusions: Punishment: Beware. Prudence: Be careful, be careful... Use previous mistakes as lessons to make careful in the future and never make similar mistakes again. Source: "The Book of Songs? Zhou Jue (Ode to)? Xiao Jing": "Punish him and prevent future troubles." Allusion: King Wu of Zhou, the founding monarch of the Zhou Dynasty, died shortly after ascending the throne, and his son, King Cheng of Zhou, succeeded to the throne. King Cheng was too young.

King Wu's younger brother, Ji Dan, assisted in handling major national affairs. King Wu's other two younger brothers Guan Shuxian and Cai Shudu were very dissatisfied with this and spread rumors everywhere, slandering Zhou Gong's assistant, who was waiting for an opportunity to abolish King Cheng and seize the throne. Duke Zhou was a loyal, honest, open-minded and generous person. After hearing these rumors, in order not to cause trouble, he lived in another place to avoid suspicion. Guan Shuxian and Cai Shudu saw that Duke Zhou left King Cheng, secretly

Wu Geng, the son of King Zhou of Shang, was colluding with Wu Geng, who wanted to launch a rebellion together and attempted to usurp the throne. After King Cheng of Zhou received a secret report, he hurriedly summoned the ministers to discuss. No one could come up with a good solution, so anxious that King Cheng didn't know what to do. A minister advised: "Only Duke Zhou can handle this matter!" King Cheng immediately invited Duke Zhou back when he heard it. King Cheng immediately ordered Duke Zhou to lead troops to fight against the rebels. Duke Zhou after three years of hardship

The war finally quelled the rebellion. Duke Zhou then loyally handled the national affairs for several years for King Cheng. After King Cheng grew up and became an adult, he handed over the power to King Cheng. On the day of formal taking over the government, King Cheng went to the ancestral temple to worship his ancestors. At the sacrificial ceremony, King Cheng reviewed the past historical lessons and said: "I must learn from the punishments I received before and do things carefully so as to avoid disaster again."

"Your Majesty said this, and it means that Wang Wen did things to punish the past and prevent the future. According to the emperor's intention, Wang Wen did it well, and this is the name given to His Majesty!" The emperor's intention to punish the past and prevent the future was consistent with Wang Qiang's handling of Zhang Puxiang's after-discipline case. During the Hongwu period, Wu Mianer's case was not handled well, which caused endless troubles. Looking at the emperor and Wang Qiang again, Empress Sun said with a smile as she thought about it.

"The queen has made the point. Those who stayed in the army will be scattered in the Five Military Offices to avoid future troubles. This is because of Wang Wen's good work, and this is because of my name Wang Wen!" The emperor smiled and looked at Empress Sun, explaining to make people understand more clearly.

"The emperor is wise!" The two ministers looked at each other and said with a smile.

Empress Sun was very excited when she saw the emperor who laughed with laughter. The emperor's face now appeared as if he had never felt any more depressed. At the beginning, the emperor asked Wang Qiang questions, and Empress Sun also felt that the emperor was useless. Isn't the emperor enough to see the memorial? Empress Sun just understood the emperor's intention. First, the emperor was finding a reason for Wang Qiang's name, and second, he was looking for the best way to eradicate the future troubles of rebellion.

"The two of them are back!" said the emperor.

"Goodbye!" The two of them said, taking two steps back and left the living room together.

"Wei (Queen) often thinks, and explains the truth!" Empress Sun looked at the emperor and said with a smile to relieve the emperor's depression.

"What witty words do the queen want to say?" The idiom explanation: Xie Yi, smile with a smile on her face, and interesting words make people laugh. The source of the idiom "Book of Han? Biography of Kuang Heng". The emperor explained the meaning and asked with a smile.

"Wealth in life is health! People can integrate this point, fame, wealth, and desires will all be gone." Empress Sun said with a smile.

"Yes!" said the emperor.

"Accustomed to depression, it can only continue depression." Empress Sun said, pointing out the emperor's symptoms.

"Yes!" said the emperor.

"Look at yesterday clearly, grasp today firmly, seek experience from yesterday, achieve results from today, and motivation from tomorrow." Empress Sun said with a smile.
