Chapter 16

Xian Ruxing didn't have much energy to focus on business, because it was about to be the day when the funeral of King Lao Xing was about to come.

Originally, according to the rules, it would have taken a long time to repair the Prince's Pursuit, but the chain effects caused by defeating King Ning have greatly increased. Not only that, but even the imperial court has made a very happy posthumous title.

The cabinet thought about it and finally gave the word "加".

There is a record in the "Possessed Posthumous Law": "A good knowledge is called Xian; a smart and wise is called Xian; a successful literary talent is called Xian; a smart and virtuous virtue is called Xian; a smart and polite character is called Xian." In this way, it is indeed the best among beautiful posthumous posthumous.

All this is done. Even if the royal palace is reluctant to leave, King Lao Xing should be buried in peace.

On the day of the funeral, Anlu, which had already rained for four or five days, rarely had a big sun. It seemed that God could not bear to see this kind and good man Xingwang walked too embarrassedly.

In such a scene, according to the rules, female relatives cannot follow, so Zhu Houcan, who has succeeded to the throne, attends the funeral on behalf of his mother and sister.

The one who walked in the front was the prince's ceremonial guard, Zhu Houyan was in the middle, and behind was his father's coffin, and at the end were followed by local officials in Anlu.

As the Taoist who presided over the sacrifice, Xian Ruxing also followed Zhu Houcong.

The young man rode on the horse and kept chattering: "The location of the tomb of Father is very good. Not only is the surrounding trees full of trees, but the terrain is still high, so it is not easy to get water, and it is not in vain that I have stuffed so much money."

"You've even stuffed money into the Imperial Heaven Supervision?" Xian Ruxing listened and echoed from time to time.

"Of course, there are actually many acquaintances in the palace of Prince Xing's Mansion," Zhu Houcong leaned over and said mysteriously: "Do you know that my father almost ascended to the big treasure back then."

Xian Ruxing widened his eyes in shock, and then subconsciously looked around.

Zhu Houcong waved his hand and said it was okay, and continued to explain to her: "Concubine Wan in the harem of Emperor Xianzong did not like the late emperor. It just so happened that my grandmother had a good relationship with her. The father was the eldest child except the late emperor. Concubine Wan always took him to the emperor's grandfather. Although he had established the crown prince, there were also bets on the previous dynasty. However, both grandmother and father were unintentionally involved in the dispute over the throne. After several concessions, they did not succeed in the end, but the previous relationship was always there."

"Your Highness is careful," Xian Ruxing couldn't help but remind him, wondering. It is logical that Zhu Houcan is so smart and precocious, so he should not have fallen behind such a handle until he saw the other party holding the reins tightly and trembling hands, and he realized it.

He sighed and said to him warmly: "Your Highness, if you feel uncomfortable, you might as well cry. It is a normal human nature to support your son but not to be with your parents."

Zhu Houcon froze slightly, then shook his head heavily, "I don't cry. I'm thirteen years old and no longer a child. My father's biggest wish before was that I could support the royal family and take good care of my mother and sister. I wouldn't cry when I send him on the road."

Knowing that this kind of thing could not be persuaded, Xian Ruxing stopped talking, but the topic was obviously unable to continue. The two of them remained silent until they arrived at King Xing's Edge.

As a vassal king, the tombs of King Xing are naturally extremely magnificent. Not only have a front room, but also a left and right room, but also a few back rooms. Some of the tombs were prepared in advance for the princess and concubines, while others were for the burial of the burial.

The system of burial was once popular in the pre-Qin period and was abolished during the Han Dynasty. Until Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, the system of burial was restored again. Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Qizhen stopped it before his death. This was also one of the few good things he did.

However, this bad habit is not present on the surface, but many clan and nobles are still secretly doing it. Before his death, King Xing specifically mentioned that he would not sacrifice others to sacrifice himself, but the craftsmen still did it according to customs.

However, thanks to the wide construction of the tomb, the people present could stand. I have said before that King Xing has a good popularity, and Zhu Houcan was offered the court, so the funeral this time has exceeded expectations and filled the surroundings.

As the sacrificial sacrificial lord, Xian Ruxing changed into a robe early, accompanied by the deacon, placed the wine and jadeware outside the door of the tomb, and came to the incense table with jade coins. The other officials bowed all over the place under the guidance of the eunuch, and offered wine to King Lao Xing one by one.

The royal family members were often respected. Xian Ruxing, a young girl, was a Taoist priest in Fang, but she was really criticized for her actions. However, the locals present were all Anlu. They learned that she was deeply trusted by the royal family and made great contributions in dealing with the rebels of King Ning, so they didn't say anything.

Xian Ruxing stood at the highest point, and with King Xing's final burial, he began to recite the "The Sutra of the Heavenly Lord of the Taishang Cave Xuanling Bao Tianzun's Sayings to Save Suffer Suffer and Relieve Sin". This is a Taoist Sutra of Taoism to help the quiet and perish.

"At that time, the Heavenly Lord of Saving the Suffering Heaven is spreading all directions, and often uses his power to save all sentient beings, and he will be lost..." Her voice was not as crisp as compared to the women of the same age, and even with a few alienation. Against the backdrop of the smoke, the woman's face was solemn and her eyes were filled with compassion. Everyone felt like an immortal in a trance.

Suddenly, the sound of chanting paused slightly. Xian Ruxing accidentally noticed that the boy in the front row lowered his head and his shoulders couldn't twitch.

He sighed in his heart, deliberately slowing down the speed of chanting scriptures, "I first developed the mysterious origin, use the auspicious sense of the auspiciousness to save all sins and overcome all disasters."

If there are really gods and Buddhas, please be better in this world.

...

The burial of King Lao Xing was obviously a node, which meant that the royal mansion had completely changed his master. The mansion changed his title to Zhu Hougui, and even Princess Jiang tried to hand over more affairs to her son.

Regardless of other business operations, the sugar business is a major event. Xu Zhizhou was transferred to the capital to report his duties a few months ago because of his contribution to fighting the rebels and his term of office has expired. The next magistrate has not yet taken office. Therefore, the current Anlu group of leaders is not in charge, which is very convenient to expand its business.

However, Zhu Houcong was a little confused about what to do next.

"Beijing City and Suzhou and Hangzhou, there are many people in these two places, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. We are so anxious to collect lime. If you are interested, it will not be difficult to crack it. At that time, the secret recipe for white sugar will be difficult to keep secret. At most, it will only be two years. According to your statement, this is called seizing the market." Zhu Houzun paused and frowned and asked, "So, where do you think is better?"

Xian Ruxing flipped over the Ming map on his hand, pondered for a moment, and pointed to a place, "I think this is good."

Following her water-like fingers, Zhu Houcan's eyes fell, and then his eyebrows raised slightly, and he said in confusion: "Jiangxi?"

"Not bad." Xian Ruxing explained: "King Ning was taken down by Wang Shouren just over a month after the rebellion. Officials of all sizes of Jiangxi Prefecture have been bribed by him. Now it is time to be too busy to take care of themselves, and I guess there is no time to argue with the vendors. This place is close to Huguang, and the goods are relatively convenient to transport. In addition, Suzhou and Hangzhou are free to advance and retreat, which is a good place."

After listening to her analysis, Zhu Houcan couldn't help but nodded, and then thought of something, and suddenly laughed, "The King Ning rebelled for several generations, but it didn't work out, but it was a cheaper one."

Xian Ruxing glanced at him and muttered in his heart, wherever he went, there was a bigger advantage waiting.

The two were studying, and suddenly, the eunuch Huang Jin came to report, saying that he had difficulty visiting and wanted to see the prince.

"What are he here to do? Leave a reply to another day." Zhu Houcong frowned. He didn't like that nerd very much. Whenever the other party saw Xian Ruxing, he would smile and lean over. Every time he saw Zhu Houcong got angry.

"But..." Huang Jin hesitated a little, "This time I took his uncle with him, and Master Fei Hongfei came here too, is it still missing?"

"Is Fei Hong here?" Zhu Houguang hesitated. Although Fei Hong had retired, he had declared that he was a veteran of the three dynasties. No matter how good he was, he still had to give him face, so he still invited him in.

Fei Hong was just over fifty years old, but his hair was white, his face was straight, his eyebrows were thick and straight, and he shot flat on both sides on his broad forehead. Just looking at his face, he knew that he was a tough and courageous person.

He won the top scorer at the age of nineteen, and then promoted all the way. He taught Emperor Zhengde, who was still the crown prince. After entering the cabinet, he worked diligently and defeated the eunuch Liu Jin. When the civil and military officials in the court turned a blind eye to King Ning's small actions, he only stood up, but he was criticized by the traitor and was disliked by the emperor. He casually found an excuse to demote the official and be exiled far away.

He tried hard to support the elders, his eyes were red, and he seemed to have just cried. When he saw the two of them, he quickly said excitedly: "Uncle! This is Master Xing Wang Yuxian! Thanks to them, otherwise his grandson would have been a bone that would have been touched!"

"In front of the prince, shouting loudly, He Taitong!" Fei Hong frowned and scolded.

"Hey, Mr. Fei is innocent, why should I blame Master Gong?" Zhu Houyan had a gentle smile on his face, perfectly showing the attitude a graceful vassal king should have.

Unexpectedly, Fei Hong didn't like this at all and replied, "The courtesy cannot be abolished. Your Highness has just succeeded to the throne, so you should pay more attention to this point. Besides, the Caomin has left the court, so please pay attention to your words."

"Uh..." Zhu Houcan was choked and didn't know how to speak. He had been in the royal palace since he was a child. Xian Ruxing, who could communicate equally, was a master Shunmao. He had not been slapped for a long time and couldn't help but sink his face.

"Mr. Fei is here today for this?"

"Of course not." Fei Hong answered with a stern look, and then suddenly gave a big gift, "The Caomin thanked His Highness for saving me from the Fei clan. This kind of kindness, Fei will never forget."

The boy was a little confused by him until Xian Ruxing pushed him behind him and woke up Fang Rumeng, and hurried forward to help him up.

This is the famous Master Fei Ge. Even if he doesn't have to give such a big tribute to the emperor, how can he enjoy himself as a vassal king?

"Please get up quickly, Mr. Fei has ruined the boy."

The old man avoided the other party's hands, forced his legs and feet to stand up straight, shook his head and said, "I am now clean and honest and have nothing to do. I really have nothing to repay you. All I can do is this. Your Highness is only in his year of dancing spoons, but he is Dou Ning King and takes refugees. Anlu is comparable to Jiangnan under your governance. It is so admirable, but I still have a question to ask you to solve your doubts."

Fei Hong has been knowledgeable throughout his life and is famous for being honest. He can praise so much. It seems that he has done a good job. After all, Zhu Houcan is young. Even if he is calm, he can't help but feel a little proud and chuckled: "Old Fei, but it's okay."

"As far as I know, King Xianxing only has your bloodline. No matter what, your highness will be worry-free. The court asked the vassal kings to not farm, work, or trade, and only stay in various places to live their lives." Fei Hong looked straight at the other party's eyes, with sharp eyes, "Looking at the entire Anlu, there are the work of King Xing's Mansion in every place. I want to know whether Your Highness wants to learn from King Ning and take the north look of the soldiers in Huangchi!"

Zhu Houcan: "..."
