Believe it or not, this palace is really not a place for retirement.
??????????????? Whether it¡¯s because it brings together all the luck in the world, or whether it¡¯s because there are too many dark palace struggles in this palace, in short, this is not a place suitable for retirement.
"And Emperor Hongzhi has retired. Now that Zhu Houzhao has become emperor, the palace should be Zhu Houzhao's place. Emperor Hongzhi should find another place to live.
Although this seems very unkind, and he has to drive Emperor Hongzhi to live somewhere else just after he abdicated, this is the reality.
When you are the emperor, you can legitimately live in the palace. When you are not the emperor, you can no longer live in the palace.
Since ancient times, there can only be one man in this palace, and that is the emperor!
"Liu Jin, do you have any good ideas or suggestions?"
Zhu Houzhao became interested in building a big garden for his father. This was possible, but Liu Jin understood his thoughts.
"Your Majesty, there are still many good places around the capital. There are also many places with beautiful mountains and rivers. Choose a place that is closer to the capital and convenient for travel. Build a large royal palace near the mountains and surrounding the lake. Come to the garden.¡±
"The Supreme Emperor has always been very frugal. This Qianqing Palace was built for the Supreme Emperor by your Majesty back then. Now that the Supreme Emperor needs to rest, he naturally needs to build a large garden."
Liu Jin thought for a while and continued.
"Yes, yes, my father has been frugal all his life, and now it's time to enjoy it."
Zhu Houzhao naturally nodded repeatedly, which was what he wanted.
As for money, Zhu Houzhao has plenty of it. The huge industry under his command can earn extremely huge and considerable wealth every year. After decades of accumulation, Zhu Houzhao can be said to be the richest in the entire Ming Dynasty.
"Bring me a map."
" Then Zhu Houzhao gave an order, and Liu Jin quickly ordered the young eunuch to bring the place from the capital.
"The Fragrant Mountain side is very good. There is a hint of autumn, and the whole mountain is red, like a flaming mountain. It is very beautiful!"
Zhu Houzhao's finger fell on Xiangshan.
He had been the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, and he had been to almost every place in the capital several times. He knew everything about the places to visit around the capital, and he knew where the scenery was. .
"Xiangshan is indeed a good place. It will definitely be very good to build a royal garden based on Xiangshan and the lake next to it."
"When the time comes, we can plant exotic flowers and plants from all over the world in this garden, and raise some fish and other things in the lake. It will definitely be very good."
Liu Jin looked at the position and nodded.
In later generations, Xiangshan was known as Xiangshan Park, and the environment was needless to say.
"Hmm~"
¡°That¡¯s it, let¡¯s build a big garden here.¡±
¡°What¡¯s a good name?¡±
"What palace?"
Zhu Houzhao nodded and settled, and then thought about the name of this garden.
Zhu Houzhao was very concerned about this matter. This was a garden built for his father. His beloved father, of course, had to pay attention to it.
¡°Let¡¯s call it Old Summer Palace!¡±
Liu Jin heard Zhu Houzhao thinking about the name and almost blurted it out.
"Old Summer Palace?"
Zhu Houzhao listened and tasted it carefully.
"The meaning of Yuanmingyuan is that it is round and spiritual, and a gentleman is in the right time; it is bright and illuminating, and it brings wisdom to others."
"At the same time, the circle also refers to the perfect personal moral character, which is beyond ordinary people. It also refers to the bright and shining political achievements, perfect and wise."
"This perfectly fits everything about the Supreme Emperor. The Supreme Emperor is an emperor throughout the ages. He is generous and kind, loves the people like a son, and is frugal and diligent. It is only through the painstaking management of the Supreme Emperor that our Ming Dynasty has achieved its current prosperous age!"

Liu Jin also quickly explained to Zhu Houzhao in detail.
To be honest, the omen of taking the name Old Summer Palace is not very good. After all, the Old Summer Palace in later generations was eventually looted and burned completely.
Now is the Ming Empire, and we don¡¯t know what will happen in the future, but for now, no one should be able to kill the Ming Dynasty.He quickly ordered someone to give Liu Jin a seat.
This is no longer the emperor. Emperor Hongzhi is also more approachable and less arrogant. Liu Jin's arrival makes him very happy, as if a friend of many years has come to visit his home.
"grandfather!"
When the son of Princess Nanyang saw Liu Jin, he was very happy and shouted quickly.
"Haha, you are here too."
Liu Jin said with a smile when he saw his grandson.
Liu Jin¡¯s sons were basically sent to various places by Liu Jin, and many of them even went to overseas colonies. The only ones around him were his eldest son Liu Xin and his youngest son Liu Qing.
Naturally, there are not many grandchildren and granddaughters around. Liu Jin usually loves his grandchildren and granddaughters very much. After all, Liu Jin cannot escape the law of separation of generations.
In the past, Liu Jin was extremely strict with his sons, but now he is not so strict with his grandchildren.
The arrival of Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin also made the atmosphere at the scene happier. They did not mention any major national affairs, but only talked about the shortcomings of the parents in the family.
Zhu Houzhao had a lot of sons and daughters, and there were quite a few who were hanging around Emperor Hongzhi every day. Their children and grandchildren were all around, making a lot of noise, but it was also very lively.
Emperor Hongzhi retired. He no longer cared about the country's affairs and didn't even bother to ask.
Because he believed that Zhu Houzhao could manage the entire Ming Dynasty, he left it to Zhu Houzhao with confidence. At the same time, there were also ministers like Liu Jin and Wang Shouren in the court, so nothing would happen at all, so there was no need to interfere.
The current Emperor Hongzhi has really retired completely. He is enjoying his old life in peace and contentment. With his children and grandchildren around his knees, he is very happy.
