Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 456 Visit from Yuanzhong
"Mountains and rivers are not peaceful, and life and death are difficult to live in peace!"

Looking at the dilapidated tomb in front of him, Li Chong was also deeply touched, and sighed, "I don't know when the world will be safe, the world will be orderly, and people's hearts will be peaceful!"

Shen Zhezi didn't say much, just stood in front of Guangyi's tomb and meditated for a moment, then turned to ask: "Brother Hongdu, do you know how many such solitary tombs are there?"

When Li Chong heard this, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and then said apologetically: "I really don't know about this, but nowadays there are turmoil in both the north and the south, and there are many scattered people. It is helpless to bury their bones in the wilderness. Similar My family's tomb was the first tomb, and there are still family members who worship and take care of it, and it can still be preserved. For those like Guangmengzu who have not been passed on, it is difficult to endure the years, and most of them are not in the barren mountains."

Hearing Li Chong's answer, Shen Zhezi frowned suddenly, and said to Li Chong after a long while: "Although I don't know this Guang Gong, I have heard his name a lot. He was also the most popular choice at that time, but now Burying barren hills, this is the sadness of the current situation, and it also makes the latecomers feel sad. I intend to search the mountains and fields, pick up the remains of the old sages, and choose another good place to bury them. It’s just that I am ignorant and ignorant of the past, so I don’t know what Brother Hongdu wants help me?"

After hearing the words, Li Chong's eyes lit up, and he said with emotion: "When a leaf falls, the mediocre will not see it. The wise man will add clothes, but the sage will worry about the cold of the world! The son-in-law has an emotional end, and he has a great wish to live by himself. Such a mind really makes me admire. This is a great act of kindness in pursuit of the former sages, if the son-in-law wants to do this, even if you don't invite me, I will definitely follow up and serve you!"

Li Chong's praise made Shen Zhezi slightly taken aback, then he smiled and didn't say much.To be honest, he didn't have much affection for these living people from the north and south, let alone the dead.The reason why he thinks like this is that Li Chong's incident gave him a reminder.

Nowadays, the north and the south are in turmoil, and they cannot live in peace. Many parents and elders cannot be buried in their homeland after death, so they can only choose to bury them randomly in the mountains and fields.Speaking of which, these mountains and fields are also state-owned. Some people use this to invade the official mountains and forests, and use the dead as a cover.

Moreover, the construction of Jiankang City is only the first phase of the project. With more fortifications in the future, there will definitely be a greater demand for bamboo, wood and stone, which will inevitably require felling and mining all over the mountains.If things like Li Chong's family happen again, there will be a lot of trouble.

If there is a fact, it's okay to say, but if you encounter a shameless person who directly chooses a lonely grave as an ancestor and uses it to blackmail people, it will be even more difficult to solve.

Instead of this, it is better to directly plan a cemetery and move all the scattered graves buried in Jiankang there once and for all.In the future, there will be no more looting of tomb forests or destruction of other people's ancestral graves.Even if it was really destroyed, if you were asked to move it and you didn't move it, it shows how little attention is paid to the ancestors, and naturally there will be no face to make trouble afterwards!
Although it is safe to be buried in the ground, and relocation will make many people emotionally unacceptable, but you can make a fuss about the site selection of the cemetery, choose a geomantic treasure, or directly relocate to the cemetery of the two former emperors, and take a burial mean.In the final analysis, these scattered tombs may not necessarily be the families of the great masters, they can be buried in any place, and it is also very good to be buried near the imperial mausoleum with a touch of feng shui and nobility.

However, since Li Chong added a noble name to himself, Shen Zhezi was also happy to accept it, so he said with a smile: "Life and death are important matters, and this matter should not be taken lightly. It is necessary to ensure that there are no remains of the sages in the wild, and everyone returns to his place. Since ZTE, how many sages have been buried in the wilderness, and we have to inquire and sort them out!"

"Don't worry, son-in-law, such a righteous deed will surely be able to respond to the gathering of those who gather together, and the efforts of all will surely reduce omissions!"

Li Chong said excitedly, although he doesn't advocate mystery, he has been notorious for a long time. If he can do such a far-reaching thing well, why worry about not being famous!While his heart was excited, he couldn't help feeling that extraordinary people can think extraordinary things and dare to do extraordinary things!

He could imagine that once this matter got out in the capital, it would definitely cause great repercussions, and the proponent would definitely gain great reputation.He himself came here almost every year, and there were many barren mounds beside the road, and he only sighed a few times in his heart, but never thought of doing this!
But this son-in-law came up with such thoughts and plans just after taking a leisurely stroll. It can be seen that his mind is far beyond his comparability!

But even if he thought about it, it would be in vain. To collect the remains of those deserted tombs all over the mountains and plains, and to identify their identities, and build new tombs according to the regulations, manpower and material resources will be greatly wasted, and a wide network of contacts is also required.These conditions are all that he does not have.

After confirming this idea, Shen Zhezi, accompanied by Li Chong, wandered around Meigang for a while, and found several tombs with different specifications.Some of them, like the tomb of Li Chong’s father, are still preserved by descendants, so they are well preserved, but some, like Guangyi’s tomb, are so damaged that their identities cannot be identified at all. It is deduced from the above that it should not be an ordinary tomb.

With such a common goal, Li Chong became more enthusiastic when facing Shen Zhezi, and even resigned from his position in Situ's Mansion after he announced his return to the capital, and devoted himself to helping with the planning of this matter.

Such a decision might seem a bit weird in other eras, because of those lonely graves who have never met each other and whose bones are almost rotten, they have to resign from office!But at present, it is a very wise decision. Even if the matter cannot be done, Li Chong will become famous and be praised for his generosity and righteousness after making this move.If it can be done well, it will only rise higher in the future!
Moreover, Li Chong's decision to resign Wang Daozheng's position is also to express his position that he will take the same position as Shen Zhezi.Although Shen Zhezi's political qualifications are far inferior to Wang Dao's, it is not without advantages. The first is that he is young, and the second is that there are more opportunities for advancement by his side.

It is true that Director Wang is now a big boss in Taichung, but there are many people who follow behind him. In terms of seniority, Li Chong does not know how many years it will be before it is his turn to make progress.Besides, Li Chong also understands that what he has learned may not be in line with the Taibao's wishes, but he has benefited a lot from the son-in-law's side even though he has not gotten along with him for a short time!
Inadvertently poached Wang Dao's corner again, although Li Chong is not very eye-catching in the current situation, but the long-term accumulation of victory can always lead to qualitative changes.Besides, Li Chong's mother, Mrs. Wei, is also a famous person passed on to future generations. Shen Zhezi himself does not expect to have any attainments in calligraphy, but it does not prevent him from preparing a good tutor for his children and grandchildren in advance. The book sage came out.

This kind of psychology is probably a regret in this life, and it is entrusted to children and grandchildren.

For such a large project, Shen Zhezi has much more experience than Li Chong.It is not popular nowadays to do good deeds without leaving a low profile, so the first thing is naturally to build momentum.In this regard, he also has an advantage, that is, his reputation is already extremely high, so he doesn't have to worry about being criticized and the idea of ​​inviting a name is hit on a private person.

On the way back to the city, Shen Zhezi began to teach Li Chong how to build momentum in the next few days, such as gathering and discussing with friends, visiting celebrities and seniors to learn about the past of ZTE, or visiting various houses to ask for details.

Li Chong was very enthusiastic about this matter, and originally planned to go directly to Shen Zhezi's residence to listen to some teachings, but thinking that he hadn't returned for several days, his family members should be extremely worried, so they had to leave in Dunan. It was agreed to go to visit in the next day, and left in a hurry.

After the turmoil of the previous few days was resolved, Shen Zhezi moved back to the princess mansion in Wuyi Lane.

In Shen Zhezi's plan, Wuyi Lane will also be demolished as a whole, and it will be moved to the vicinity of the Taimiao on the north side of the Qinhuai River.In the original planning of Jiankang City, Bird Clothes Lane was actually located on the edge of the city. As Jiankang City became more prosperous and the number of residents in Changganli and other places increased, it gradually became the center of the city.

But because the construction lacks a unified plan, it looks very uncoordinated, like a big tumor falling on the banks of the Qinhuai River.However, because there are many noble people here, and the damage is not serious, the resistance to demolition is not small.Shen Zhezi is not in a hurry about this. After the people who participated in the construction really make a lot of money, they can't afford to demolish it.

Because there were too many visitors recently, Shen Zhezi avoided the main entrance and went home from the side entrance in the back alley.The ox cart slowly stopped in the garden, and just as Shen Zhezi got off the cart, he heard a burst of cheerful laughter from the pavilion behind the rockery, the loudest of which was Princess Xingnan.Judging by the sound, the girl seemed to be receiving guests.

Standing behind the rockery, Shen Zhezi asked the people around him to come in and report. After a while, several maids hurried out on the other side of the rockery, and the one walking in the front was the little maid Gua'er.Holding a clean blouse in her hand, she waited for the other maids to help take off the cloak on Shen Zhezi's body before stepping forward to put on the blouse for Mr. Lang, bending over to smooth out the creases.

Shen Zhezi took out the folding fan from his sleeve pocket and handed it to the little maid, took a stag tail and swept the hair crown, and asked casually as he walked forward, "Which family is there?"

"The visitors from Yuanzhong are King Langya and Princess Luling."

Gua'er followed behind Shen Zhezi, swiping with the tail of the stag, and replied in a soft voice.

When Shen Zhezi heard this, he paused, but he had already walked here, and it was a bit deliberate to avoid it, so he walked towards the flower hall again.

"My brother-in-law is back."

Langya King Sima Yue stood upright under the porch, and when he saw Shen Zhezi approaching, he went down the steps, handed him a wishful handle, and forced a somewhat stiff smile on his face.

Although he has always been praised by the ministers for his calmness, he is only a young man. Shen Zhezi has never been as kind to him as he was to the emperor. In addition, his mother has always told him to treat his brother-in-law with courtesy, so when facing Shen Zhezi, Inevitably some restraint.

"Since you've arrived home, you don't need to perform the ceremony. I'm going out for a banquet in the morning. I don't know if His Royal Highness is coming to visit, so let's go together."

Shen Zhezi took Ruyi and handed it back to King Langya. He waved his hand to signal the other party to go with him, and then walked into the flower hall.As soon as he crossed the threshold, he saw his sister-in-law Princess Nandi standing by the door, not knowing how to place her hands: "Hello, brother-in-law..."

"Sister-in-law, don't be nervous. Although your brother-in-law is very powerful outside, he is very kind at home. In the future, he will come to the house more and see more, so there is no need to restrain him."

Princess Xingnan greeted her with a smile, she looked like an elder sister, her bright eyes were curved like crescent moons, as if she was satisfied with the respect her younger siblings showed her lord.
