Zhu Yijun stood up and said with a smile: "If there is a will, things will come true. If the cauldron sinks the boat, a hundred and two Qin Pass will eventually belong to Chu; if you work hard, God will not let you down; if you lie on the salary and taste the courage, three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu."
"A group of rotten people who deserve to be buried in the grave still want me to bow my head, without even thinking about it."
Zhu Yijun expressed his contempt for the corrupt Confucians. This is not because Zhu Yijun is arrogant. In fact, the corrupt Confucians are really vulnerable.
There have been two recent incidents between the DPRK and China, which can share the cake.
The first thing is that Baoqi Division recruits talents, and the second thing is the recommendation of Maritime Academy. One is farming, the other is exploring the sea.
In these two things, the rotten scholars, or this group that likes to discuss things clearly, show their deep-rooted incompetence and laziness, and they can't even drink soup.
Baoqisi cultivates the land and Maritime Hall operates the sea. Both of them are extremely hard work.
Of course, some courtiers objected to the change of ancestors. This opposition was based on the motive of throwing the cake on the ground if they couldn't get their share.
Especially regarding the Maritime Hall, some courtiers reported: Maritime prohibition is an ancestral law. To study the state, one has to exploit the sea to make profit. This is already a great sin. Why should we encourage it anymore? By then the world will collapse. Music is bad, people's hearts are not as old as they used to be, people are resentful and vulgar, and people are stealing, what should we do if we lose integrity and shame?
Zhu Yijun directly used another ancestral method to deal with it, and defeated the opponent to the point of defeat.
In the early days of the country, there was a ban. Those who learned the calendar were sent to garrison, and those who created the calendar were put to death. In the eleventh year of Hongzhi, during the Xiaozong Dynasty, many calendars were inaccurate. Emperor Xiaozong personally issued an order to relax the ban on the calendar and ordered scholars who could live in seclusion in the mountains and forests to prepare for their selection. However, the result was that none of them died.
Because of the ban, a large number of calendar scholars were lost. During the Hongzhi period, if they wanted to formulate a complete calendar, they could not find even one person who knew the calendar. Did they have to wait until the Ming Dynasty Maritime Affairs, and those who could live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and die? Only those who do not respond will regret it?
They all go against the ancestral laws. Is it something we did wrong today, or did we do something wrong in the Hongzhi Dynasty during the reign of Emperor Xiaozong?
Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty, who was very filial, was also a politically correct existence in the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the main contradictions in the Ming Dynasty extended from household affairs to world affairs. After Xiaozong ascended the throne, the various laws he established have been highly praised.
It’s called: Three generations below, those who are called wise masters are Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty, and Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty.
To oppose the opening of the sea in violation of the ancestral law, we must first oppose the Ming Xiaozong's revision of the calendar and the violation of the ancestral law.
When the emperor knows enough about the history of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yijun will not be bullied as the emperor, and he can even scold him back.
"I heard that Your Majesty has doubts, and I will try to clear up this doubt for Your Majesty." Zhu Zaiyu bowed his head and said.
Zhu Yijun's eyes lit up, someone was going to help him solve his doubts again.
The diligent and inquiring little emperor couldn't wait to say: "Oh? Uncle Emperor, tell me quickly."
Zhu Zaiyu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty once asked Wan Shihe and Yuan Fu, the ministers of the Ministry of Rites, a question. They are the Xiaofolangji people and the Dafolangji people. The two countries live next to each other. They are both from the west of Thailand, but one is from the west. One came from Malacca, and one came from Eastern Luzon. Wan Shihe could not answer and was reprimanded by His Majesty. I have some ideas."
Zhu Zaiyu wanted to show his value and persuade the emperor to invest in him. If he wanted to explain his value clearly, he needed to tell a good story and coax investors into running around.
On the way, Zhu Zaiyu read the Di newspaper that he had not paid attention to for many years, and selected a breakthrough. The emperor asked the red-haired fans from Malacca and Luzon why they were going from the east to the west.
Zhu Zaiyu picked up a piece of paper and outlined the shape of the Ming Dynasty in three or two strokes, followed by the Wanli Seawall, Luzon and the Strait of Malacca. However, in this picture, the Ming Dynasty's shape took up the entire page than usual. Differently, the Ming Dynasty in this picture is not too big.
The map of the Ming Dynasty has the north, the south, the left, the west, the right, and the east. It has existed since ancient times. Zhu Zaiyu did not deviate from tradition when he drew the map. It is easy to understand. After all, there is a huge official screen in the Wenhua Hall. Ancient Chinese maps are all in the north. superior.
"Uncle Huang can also draw?" Zhu Yijun was amazed, and in a few strokes he sketched out the prototype of the world known to the Ming Dynasty.
"I understand a little, I understand a little." Zhu Zaiyu said with a smile. How could he dare to go to Liangshan without twos and threes? How could Zhu Zaiyu dare to be so arrogant and say such a treasonous thing in front of the envoy? Hate yourself for being a member of the Zhu family?
"Your Majesty, during the Zhengde period, the Xiaofo Langji people sent envoys. From then on, the place where the Hongmao Fan was located was called Taixi. It is an extremely far west. It takes about a year to reach it by boat. It is still unknown. Its location and the size of its country are not yet known, but it can be summarized by pointing to a location in the west."
Zhu Zaiyu clicked a black dot and continued: "The big and small Folangji countries are adjacent to each other, so click a little more on the side."
"Compared to our Ming Dynasty, one came from the west to Malacca, and the other came from the east to Luzon and other places. On this piece of paper, it is indeed unreachable. It is indeed strange. They are obviously the same place, but they are so far east. It’s so far west again.”
"But what if we stand the paper up and roll it up?"
Zhu Zaiyu drew two lines on the paper, picked up the paper, and rolled it together. In this way, all the problems were solved and suddenly became clear.
"The red-haired bandits all come from the West. They are on the sea. One goes east and the other goes west. Naturally, they can come to our country, the Ming Dynasty." Zhu Zaiyu answered his majesty's doubts.
"Sir, do you understand?" Zhu Yijun certainly understood what Zhu Zaiyu wanted to express. The key is whether Zhang Juzheng, the prime minister of the empire, can understand.
The little emperor thought that Zhang Juzheng could understand that this was not a difficult matter and could solve the problem perfectly.
"Simple." Zhang Juzheng said with his usual expression. The little emperor had doubts. Zhang Juzheng really tried hard to find answers for the little emperor. He knew more than the little emperor thought, but he was not yet sure whether his answer was correct. That’s all.
Zhu Zaiyu glanced at Zhang Juzheng in surprise. There was something wrong with this person. On such a deviant topic, Zhang Juzheng actually said a simple sentence. He should not shout immediately, "Book of Rites" says: making obscene noises, strange clothes, strange skills, strange skills. The weapon is used to suspect everyone, kill! The prophecy is just a lot of nonsense and nonsense.
I heard that Zhang Juzheng was extremely strict with the young emperor. Is this how he became the emperor's master? Don’t you even say anything about blaming Chen Shan?
Zhang Juzheng didn't say anything. The damage Fu Yingzhen caused to him was nothing more than drizzle. The little emperor swung the hammer with a big hammer and a small hammer every day. Zhang Juzheng was dizzy. What Zhu Zaiyu said didn't happen. Zhang Juzheng gave a feast. The little emperor I have asked him many times whether the king, father and king are one. That is the real treason.
Zhang Juzheng said they were one, but in practice, the national funds were divided, which was a betrayal of the unity of the monarch, father, and country.
Political correctness must be practiced and things must be done.
It was in this side hall before that the little emperor discussed that machinery has nothing to do with mind.
"So, what the emperor is saying is that the earth is not flat, but a cylinder? It rotates back and forth around the axis of the earth, so there are sunrises and sunsets?" Seeing that Zhang Juzheng understood, Zhu Yijun asked.
Just like there are two dark clouds on the little emperor, after solving one problem, a lot of questions follow one after another, and it is overwhelming. For example, the little emperor said at this time, if the earth is a tube, with east and west curves, why are there no north and south? song?
Zhu Zaiyu shook his head and said: "Your Majesty measured the angle of the North Pole in the capital to be 39.98°. I sat in Prince Zheng's Mansion for several years and received a rare gift from His Majesty. Before leaving, I looked at the sky and found that the angle of the North Pole was 35.15°. This raises a new problem, Your Majesty.”
"Your Majesty, it's four degrees off. This is not normal."
"What's wrong?" Zhu Yijun asked slightly confused.
Zhu Zaiyu said with emotion: "As the saying goes, a horse will die when it looks at the mountains. If it sees the mountains and keeps running, the horse will be exhausted and cannot run. At this time, there will be doubts. The sky is high. The sky is so high that I don’t know how high it is, and Beichen is like the top of a mountain. Your Majesty is in Wenhua Hall, and I am in Prince Zheng’s Mansion. Although they are far away, how can there be such a difference compared to the height of the sky?"
"So, our earth is not a tube, but a ball."
The sky is infinitely high. Compared with Beichen, there is already a four-degree difference from Hanoi County, Huaiqing Prefecture to Daming. Is that because the sky is not high enough, or is the ground a curved surface?
Two young eunuchs came to the emperor carrying a plate covered with red silk cloth. Zhu Zaiyu opened the red silk cloth and said: "The earth is a ball."
"So, what do you think, sir?" Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng.
Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said: "The Notes on the Armillary Sphere" by Zhang Heng of the Han Dynasty says: The sky is like a chicken, and the earth is like a yellow. They live alone in the sky. The sky is big and the earth is small. He Chengtian of the Liu Song Dynasty said in "On the Body of the Armillary Sphere": "Look carefully at the previous statement, because Observing the armillary sphere and studying its meaning, one realizes that the shape of the sky is a perfect circle, with water occupying half of it. It is the same from above to below, and water surrounds it below. "
"What the prince said is not a rare thing. What does heaven and earth say? Everyone is different."
There are different views throughout the ages on what the sky is like and what the earth is like. The sky is round and the earth is flat, and China is in the middle. This is just one of them.
In order to solve the little emperor's doubts, Zhang Juzheng really tried his best to read a lot of books. The saying that the earth is a ball has been around since ancient times, because if the earth is a ball, it can explain many problems.
Zhu Zaiyu continued: ""Zhou Guan" says: "The shadow of the sun on the ground is only one inch different for thousands of miles. "
"In the 19th year of Yuanjia, He Chengtian of Liu Song Dynasty said: It's six hundred miles, but it's only one inch different."
"In the first year of Yongping, Wuzi, Northern Qi Dynasty, Xindu Fang said: two hundred and fifty miles, the shadow is only one inch different."
"In the Tang Dynasty, the eminent monks and others, Nangong Shuo and others, sent officials to various places to travel the zodiac and the armillary sphere to measure the shadow of the sun and report back to the sun. The North Pole is high out of the ground, 51° Tiele Huihe, and the North Pole is high out of the ground. Lin Yi at 18°, the "Dayan Calendar" was completed."
"Nangong Shuo led officials, astronomical doctors, etc., to map out the four places from Baima, Junyi, Fugou in Huazhou to Caiwujin in Shangshang."
"The instrument compound moment was used to measure the height of the North Pole, and an eight-foot altimeter was used to measure the winter solstice, summer solstice, vernal equinox and autumnal equinox. The length of the sun's shadow at noon was measured with a measuring rope. The distance between the North Pole and the ground was determined to be one degree, and the ground distance was 351 80 steps in."
Obviously, Zhu Zaiyu made it very clear that this was not his alone. Supporters from Zhou Guan to He Chengtian of the Liu Song Dynasty, Xin Dufang of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Master Yixing of the Tang Dynasty, Nangong Shuo, and the round earth theory even practiced it. In fact, through the mystery of the instrument, measurements were made.
Zhu Yijun looked at the sextant in front of him and asked doubtfully: "I understand what the emperor said. Starting from the Zhou Dynasty, he discovered that there were differences in the length of the shadows at the same time. In the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, it was actually Six hundred miles and one inch, by the Northern Qi Dynasty, became two hundred and fifty miles and one inch, and by the Tang Dynasty, instruments such as the compound moment instrument were used to measure the angle of the North Pole out of the ground."
"What is the compound moment that the emperor's uncle is talking about?"
Zhu Zaiyu drew the appearance of a compound moment in two strokes, which is a right-angled ruler turned over, a weight suspended at the vertex of the right angle, and an arc set between the two vertical rulers with scales on it.
As long as the North Star is observed along the edge of a ruler, the weight line on the arc can show the reading of the North Pole altitude.
Zhu Zaiyu said quite sincerely: "The sextant used by His Majesty has reached the same goal through different routes."
"Sure enough, nothing is accomplished overnight, and everything has a very clear development path." Zhu Yijun said with deep feeling.
Zhang Juzheng also stood on the shoulders of the sages of the past generations, breaking through his own cognitive scope bit by bit, without building castles in the air, and got the theory of contradiction. As for all Zhu Zaiyu's achievements, it is not that he is taller than the sky, and he is born with everything. They are all created and invented independently by themselves, but they stand on the shoulders of the sages of the past generations and take another step forward.
Know it when you are born, know it when you learn it, and know it when you are stuck. These are the three methods of cognition. Only through drop by drop, little by little accumulation, and little by little breakthrough, can the results be achieved.
"Does Your Majesty know the precession of the equinox?" Zhu Zaiyu finished telling the story and finally started to attract investment. He needed His Majesty the Emperor to invest in him. Policies, talents, and funds were all what Zhu Zaiyu was indispensable for.
Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "I know, Feng Daban, please explain to the emperor what precession is."
"The years of the sky and the earth are different. The years of the earth are shorter and the years of the sky are longer. This is the precession." Feng Baoyan explained briefly and comprehensively. He listened carefully. As for the definition of the year of the sky and the earth, Feng Bao didn't know much about it. , he is not doing this, but it is enough to know the definition.
Zhu Zaiyu was dumbfounded. His Majesty was really surrounded by crouching tigers and hidden dragons. If he asked Sun Jigao, the number one scholar, about the concept of precession, he didn't even know about it!
"How much precession did your uncle measure?" Zhu Yijun asked curiously.
Zhu Zaiyu bowed his head and said: "The deviation of one year is one minute and forty-three seconds, seventy-three microseconds and twenty-six fibers. When the sky travels once on the 25th of September, 2020, that is to say, the star at the north celestial pole pointed to by the earth's axis is in two directions. After more than fifteen thousand years, it will become Gouchenyi again, and it will retreat westward once in seventy years and twenty quarters."
"Uncle Huang is awesome." Zhu Yijun looked at Zhu Zaiyu blankly.
Guo Shoujing's "Scheduling Calendar" determined the precession to be sixty-six years, and Zhu Zaiyu determined the time to be seventy years and twenty quarters. The correct answer is seventy-one years, eight months and one degree backward.
The emperor's uncle is here. Whoever said that the Ming Dynasty calendar has not made progress will send the emperor's uncle to fight!
The Ming Dynasty had no plans. It was just that the Ming Dynasty court could not make the trip because of the strong public opinion in the court.
You must know that Zhu Zaiyu is the son of Prince Zheng, and his father is a commoner. The Ming Dynasty has ancestral laws and cannot be educated. Zhu Zaiyu took huge political risks to learn the calendar, and was trapped by the royal vassal, so he lacked actual measurement data of the calendar. Without any astronomical equipment, one can imagine how difficult it is to study the calendar alone, but the results obtained are a step forward.
Zhu Zaiyu is crazy and indeed has the capital to be crazy.
"I heard that the emperor's uncle is good at arithmetic. Please teach me arithmetic in the future." Zhu Yijun found a job for Zhu Zaiyu to teach the emperor mathematics. Of course, whoever teaches whom would be more interesting.
Zhu Zaiyu said solemnly: "I want to build a star observatory to correct the errors in the calendar."
"What do you think, sir?" Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng and asked.
Zhang Juzheng knew before that the little emperor had plans to improve his academic qualifications, but this matter had to be done step by step. He planned to provide the little emperor with some ammunition, so that when the little emperor cursed, he would have enough ammunition to call the other person a fool. .
He thought about it and said: "Some people say that Emperor Taizu Gao banned the calendar and the previous dynasties banned astronomy and calendar calculations. This means that you only know one but not the other. You have learned it but not the whole thing. You have read the book but only read it. A little bit."
"The Book of Jin says: The study of forbidden star energy and prophecy."
"Volume 9 of "Tang Lu Shu Yi" says: Those who study astronomy privately will be treated as prophecies and military books, and those who violate the rules will be punished for two years."
"On the first day of the twelfth month of the second year of Taiping's reign in the Song Dynasty, on the first day of the twelfth lunar month, sixty-eight people were ordered to be assigned to Si Tiantai, and the rest of them were tattooed on the island. "Song Code" says: Those who hide their private practices and do not speak out will be punished with death, and those who ask for information will be rewarded with money. One hundred thousand. Xing counts the magician and sends him to the palace."
""Yuan Shi Shi Zu Ji": The world secretly keeps astronomical pictures and prophecies, and those who have private habits and conceal them will be punished."
"In the sixth year of Hongwu, Taizu issued an edict: The personnel of Qin Tian Jian are never allowed to move. The descendants are only allowed to study astronomy and calculus, and are not allowed to study other professions. If they do not study as scholars, they will be sent to the South China Sea to serve as soldiers."
"The so-called: Those who study calendars are sent to garrison, and those who create calendars are put to death. This is a misunderstanding. It should be that the descendants of Qin Tianjian who do not learn astronomy and calendar calculations are garrisoned, and those who secretly create calendars are executed."
Zhang Juzheng provided the first ammunition. Even during the Wanli period, even in the Ming Dynasty, there were many misunderstandings about the calendar prohibition of Emperor Gao, the great ancestor of the Ming Dynasty. They were the descendants of Qin Tianjian officials who did not learn astronomy and calendars. He went to the South China Sea to serve as an army, and the people secretly made calendars and beheaded them.
Zhang Juzheng continued: "Zuo Zhuan says: Sun Manzhi, the former king, reprimanded Chuzi: "The importance of the tripod cannot be asked."
"The Jiuding is a ritual vessel that reaches the sky and a symbol of royal power, so others are not allowed to covet it. The astronomical calendar has been banned in past dynasties for the same reason."
""Zhou Li·Chun Guan Zongbo" records: The responsibilities of Taishi should be prefaced every year, and be awarded to the government and the capital, and be announced to the state."
"The Zhou Rites are also the laws of astronomy and calculus that are in charge of the imperial court, and then promulgated to the government and the capital, and also to the states, and the princes and subjects all abide by them."
"Correction of official astronomy, strict prohibition of private astronomy practice."
Zhang Juzheng provided the second piece of ammunition. Why was the private practice of astronomy and calculus prohibited in all dynasties? Because this thing has the power to reach the sky and the gods, and it is the same as the nine tripods. Now the calendar is inaccurate. Doesn’t it mean that the court can’t reach the sky and the gods? If it doesn’t be repaired quickly, is it necessary to conquer the rituals and music? Are the princes coming out?
It is natural for the imperial court to be in charge of astronomy. Now that the people are more powerful than the imperial court in the calendar, that is the end of the world.
"Shang Tang destroyed the Xia Society and restored it; King Wen of Zhou built a spiritual platform and destroyed the trading company; those who privately studied astronomy and calculus and then joined the new master were considered criminals in the old dynasty, but in the new dynasty they were heroes! Wu! Fan was to Sun Quan, King of Wu, Zhang Bin was to Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Li Chunfeng was to Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and Liu Ji was to Emperor Taizu Gao." Zhang Juzheng provided the third ammunition to the young emperor. This ammunition can be said to be It is a blockbuster at the level of a gunpowder ship.
The calendar compiled by the imperial court is not as good as that of the people, and chaos in the world is foreseeable.
Liu Ji had a book of astronomical books and Zaotian Shu to assist Taizu and Emperor Gao. After Liu Ji returned home from official duties, he became seriously ill. He gave the book of astronomical books to his son Liu Lian and said: It is urgent to learn from it and not to be learned by future generations. !When Liu Ji died, he warned his children and grandchildren not to learn astronomy and calculations, but also to return astronomical books to Taizu Emperor Gao.
"Sir, do you mean it can be done?" Zhu Yijun asked with a smile. He accepted Zhang Juzheng's ammunition and loaded it.
Zhang Juzheng said with great confirmation: "Yes, the Qintian Prison is opposite Gongyuan and the Imperial College. The star observatory should be built in the Qintian Prison."
Zhu Yijun nodded and said, "Well, then the emperor's uncle and Qintian Supervisor, Prime Minister Zhou, should supervise this matter together."
Zhu Zaiyu obeyed the leader's order and said loudly: "I accept the order!"
Zhu Zaiyu's father, Zhu Hounan, had put aside his past grievances. In Zhu Hounan's view, the late emperor restored his title and gave him an additional salary of 400 shi. This was an admission of mistake. In this era when the emperor was supreme, the late emperor should not pretend to be ignorant. You know, Zhu Houtan will never be able to live without a high wall in his life.
In fact, Zhu Zaiyu has been fighting for right and wrong, but he is fighting for his life unwillingly.
Now that the emperor asked him to preside over the compilation of the new calendar, he put aside the right and wrong of the past and gave him an opportunity to correct the new right and wrong. He was still fighting for right and wrong, but there were differences.
Zhu Zaiyu and Zhang Juzheng left the side hall of Wenhua Hall and stood under the winter sunshine.
"Mr. The Theory of Contradiction, can you lend me a copy?" Zhu Zaiyu decided to take a look. What kind of knowledge is the Theory of Contradiction highly recommended by his father? Today's court affairs, Zhang Juzheng, is more powerful than he imagined.
But even such a powerful Zhang Juzheng, such a smart little emperor, has such difficulty in doing things.
Zhang Juzheng said quite accurately: "That is your majesty's contradictory statement. You should ask Daxuan for it. Your Highness, the capital of Longtan and Tiger's Cave is no better than Huaiqing Prefecture and Hanoi County. You must be more cautious, more careful, more careful, and you can't say anything if you can." Said, this is a serious matter, please make it clear in advance."
At the grand banquet to welcome Prince Zheng's crown prince Zhu Zaiyu to the capital and demonstrate the close friendship, the young emperor did not attend because he was busy practicing martial arts and farming. Zhu Zaiyu, the protagonist of this close friendship, also did not attend. .
After Zhu Zaiyu got the theory of contradictions, he forgot the time while studying. He was not interested in these red tapes, especially if he knew that the little emperor would not go, then he would not go. In addition, Zhang Juzheng's instructions, Zhu Zaiyu lived in the Tenth Prince's Mansion. Zhu Zaiyu lived in seclusion and simplicity since he was a child.
The courtiers could not see the prince at all.
What Zhu Zaiyu regretted was that his nephew didn't care about music at all. What he was best at was music rhythm, so the little emperor only looked at him twice.
Although the little emperor has many hobbies, he is not very interested in music.
In December of the second year of Wanli, in the capital of Liaodong, the governors Zhang Xueyan and Li Chengliang clasped their hands and looked at the sky. The sky was blue and there was no intention of snowing at all. If it didn't snow, they wouldn't launch an attack. The purpose is to annihilate all the slaves in one battle.
Li Chengliang is burly and Zhang Xueyan is a scholar and a little thin, but the two of them stand together in a harmonious manner. The two of them have the same posture, looking up at the sky, and they are helpless to God.
It just won't snow.
Zhang Xueyan frowned and said: "The imperial court has decided to attack at the beginning of November, and the food and salary have also arrived. If we don't attack, the imperial court may think that we are supporting the invaders and are self-respecting, and will force the imperial court to pay the arrears as scheduled."
"I also have this worry, but God is not kind to me. What can I do? If we suppress the people without redressing them, the harm will be endless." Li Chengliang looked up at the sky, his neck was sore, but he still didn't see the dark clouds.
This made Li Chengliang particularly anxious.
"The imperial court seems to have not urged you." Zhang Xueyuan said with an even weirder expression: "Your Majesty has never issued an order to inquire, and the ministers have not sent letters. The imperial court is even calmer. Recently, there has been a lot of trouble in the imperial court because of the reduction of the vassal salary. , it’s also strange, it’s usually the courtiers and ministers who persuade His Majesty to reduce the royalties, but now it’s the other way around, it’s the courtiers who are blocking the reduction of the royalties.”
"Commander Qi didn't send his commander to hear the news. How strange! This battle has made me feel very sad."
If they were urged, Zhang Xueyan and Li Chengliang would not be so worried. Everything is ready now, but they only need West Wind. Li Chengliang and others have been slow to move. The court, let alone reprimanding, did not even urge. They just asked one or two questions every day. It was so weird that the two of them felt very strange.
Li Chengliang raised a possibility: "Is it possible that His Majesty is wise and knows that the road to Liaodong is far away, so he does not give us orders? You see, Your Majesty allocated silver from the internal funds and said that he would make up for the full salary. This has happened since the Yongle Dynasty After that, it’s the first time in the world.”
"When have you ever seen money coming back?"
Li Chengliang has never seen this scene before. Every time he fights, he always thinks of his own way. He has no money, food, or logistics at all. Half of the imperial court's salary has arrived in Liaoyang. This is the first time for Li Chengliang to fight such a wealthy battle. There is full salary, and if it can be fulfilled, and it is not Li Chengliang's fault, the situation in Liaodong will be stable for more than ten years!
The Haixi women's straights, the Yeren women's straights, the three Uliangha women's straights, and the Jianzhou women's straights are all local chickens and dogs!
Zhang Xueyan said with some uncertainty: "Maybe, maybe, maybe? Qi Shuai also said the same. Qi Shuai said that His Majesty is wise and wise, and knows the military affairs on the front line. Fighter opportunities are fleeting, so he does not urge you much."
"According to Qi Shuai, the imperial court only has this amount of money, no matter how long it takes, it will always be like this. It's quite...a bit like taking a test."
The Emperor of Ming Dynasty became wise, but Zhang Xueyan and Li Chengliang were somewhat uncomfortable. This battle was a bit strange.
Li Chengliang was also under a lot of pressure. The court's silent attitude made Li Chengliang feel furious. What if he even cursed with an imperial edict?
Li Chengliang pointed at the sky and cursed loudly: "God, you son of a bitch, won't give you face when you use him. He can't even get a breath of wind. I've been to the Dragon King Temple to pray for snow for several days. I've seen people praying for rain." , I’ve never seen Qiu Xue! Don’t let me find out where your Dragon King is, otherwise I’ll have to pull out its skin and cramp its tendons!”
Zhang Xueyan withdrew his gaze, shook his head and said, "What a bastard! Normally, the cold wind keeps howling, and the snow gets heavier each time, but this year is not the best. Since the beginning of winter, not even a single hair has fallen!"
Li Chengliang and Zhang Xueyan were amazed. As soon as they finished speaking, the old withered vines roared, and the sand on the ground was blown up by the wind, swirling and raising a puff of smoke.
"got windy?"
"The wind is blowing." Li Chengliang suddenly trembled and said, "The wind is blowing!"
In fact, it's not that the two of them know magic, it's that the two of them squat and scold each other every day. Whenever the wind blows, it seems like they both have magic.
The wind in Liaodong was so cold and biting that it was like blowing on human bones. When the cold wind blew, Li Chengliang shivered and said with ecstasy: "Haha, God will not stop me! Okay!" Very! Zhou Shilu, gather your men and prepare to attack the rebellious chief Gao! Wang Nian, the doctor in charge of food and household affairs, Wang Nian! Wang Nian? Where have you gone?"
If there is no wind, Li Chengliang will go crazy.
Li Chengliang was preparing to fight. After searching for a long time, he couldn't find where Wang Nian, the grain doctor in the Ministry of Revenue, had gone!
"I'm afraid he's sleeping on some bitch's belly! I'm going to look for him!" Zhang Xueyan looked left and right. These days, the generals have been waiting for the snow. Come over and ask if you have nothing to do. , when are we going to attack? Avenge Pei Chengzu?
Only Wang Nian, who was in charge of food, kept saying that he couldn't fight all day long. Not only that, Wang Nian didn't even click on the button many times.
If the main discussion in the court had not focused on the issue of sects and vassals, what Wang Nian said might have set off a wave of public opinion to stop the advance.
Now it seems that the wind is blowing, but Wang Nian is still not there!
The reason why Wang Nian is so rampant is entirely because he is a Jin party, and Zhang Xueyan, the governor of Liaodong, is also a Jin party.
In September of the fourth year of Longqing, the three guards of Uliangha, Chahan Tumen Khan, saw that Anda Khan was conferring the king in the northwest. They immediately took the three guards to peek inside the Chen Bing Pass, hoping to use their troops to seek the title of king from the Ming court. Liaodong General Wang Zhidao and Jinyi General Lang Degong died in battle. The following year, Governor Li Qiu was dismissed, and Zhang Xueyan was recommended by Gao Gong to governor Liaodong.
Zhang Xueyan immediately became angry. When there was no war, you acted wantonly. Zhang Xueyan saw that everyone was a member of the Jin Party, so he tolerated it. But now that the war was fierce and the Jin Revolution was going on, Wang Nian couldn't even see anyone. To a.
When Zhang Xueyan found Wang Nian, some snowflakes were already floating in the sky, and Wang Nian's legs were spinning and he was a little unsteady. It was obvious that he was not fully sober from the wine. Zhang Xueyan was so angry that he kicked Wang Nian to the ground and took away the With his seal, he personally supervises the grain.
Wang Nian grabbed Zhang Xueyan, shook his head vigorously, and after regaining consciousness for a few minutes, he said: "We can't fight. Leave Fushun Pass and go to Gule Village to fight against the bandits. It may be dangerous. Then how did Pei Chengzu die? No." Were they the ones who were booby-trapped?”
"Today when we leave the customs, the northern captives must have set up an ambush long ago. Moreover, the Chahan Tumen Khan in the northwest and the Haixi Nuzhi Wangtai are all watching with eager eyes. Our Ming army is afraid of being unlucky when we leave the customs! "
"Governor Zhang! Listen to me, listen to me, you can't go!"
"Before General Li, three generals were killed in battle. Yin Shangzhi, Yang Zhao, and Wang Zhidao died in battle one after another. In September of the fourth year of Longqing, General Lang Degong of Jinyi left Jinzhou privately. Wang Zhidao chased him, but they were both ambushed. Death, has Governor Zhang forgotten?"
"Soldiers who have traveled thousands of miles to gain profit should avoid it. The general should correct it, rectify the passes, and prevent the captives from building slave passes. Why should we go with them? We can't go."
Wang Nian talked about old things. Before Li Chengliang, the three generals of the Ming Dynasty all died in battle. The former governor Li Qiu was even more unlucky. Li Qiu was not allowed to go out to fight in the city. Jinyi's general Lang De Gongzhu made a sudden advance and insisted on going out of the city to kill the enemy. Wang Zhidao went to stop him, but the two generals were ambushed and both died in battle.
Wang Nian wailed and said, "You can't go."
