Chapter 165: Lunar Eclipse Glow

"Then my chance is not here, haha" Qin Yiming was very excited, he had already fallen off the list, but now he still has a chance, he didn't know why he fell off the list last time.

"Young master, then I'll go back first."

"Well, you go back first, I promised Miss Yuanyuan to finish telling her the story that I didn't finish last time."

Qin Yiming likes to run to Chen Yuanyuan when he has nothing to do, admire Chen Yuanyuan's flowers and moonlight, and listen to those beautiful tunes.

Since Chen Yuanyuan played Qin Yiming's tunes, the business of the entire Chu Pavilion was immediately several times hotter, Chen Yuanyuan's tunes made countless people fascinated, at this time, the Ming people, it can be said that many people of insight have no peace of mind in their hearts, the country is in turmoil, and the people of Dawn are extremely miserable, but they can do nothing about it, they can only find comfort in this bright and green place, Chen Yuanyuan's sad tunes, so that many people are quite touched, these tunes are also spreading rapidly, and Chen Yuanyuan's value is even more explosive, It's a pity that Chen Yuanyuan has already been predetermined, which also makes many people sad and regretful.

And Chen Yuanyuan also likes to listen to Qin Yiming's stories, the story of a famous prostitute and a general.

"After the general and the courtesan were separated, didn't you think about looking for them again?" Hearing that the general obeyed the orders of his parents, went to the border pass, and abandoned the singer, Chen Yuanyuan was anxious, she didn't care about the war in any country, and she wanted to know the results of those loves, and when she heard that the hero and the beauty were separated, her interest had been raised.

"Of course not, rather than know the city and the country, the beauty is hard to get, such a stunning beauty, the general is naturally always in mind, and then the general returned triumphantly, and began to look for the person who fell in love in the past, at this time, the courtesan has been bought, ready to give it to the dignitary, that person originally wanted to buy the courtesan to give to the emperor, but the emperor has no intention of women, this singer is to wash her face with tears all day long."

"Hey, the world is the most infatuated and bitter, people in the world, as long as they are contaminated with the word "infatuation", they will inevitably be lonely and melancholy. But so what? Infatuated people, even if they have to wait in the moonlight, search in the wasteland, until the earth is barren, in those loneliness and coldness, there is a sweetness in their hearts. And ruthless people don't seem to have to go through the pain of gathering and dispersing, but when they are old, how many things and how many states of mind are worth recalling! Chen Yuanyuan was very immersed at this time, as if he was making a reason for himself, wanting to prove that all his waiting was worth it.

"And then? What happened? Chen Yuanyuan continued to ask.

"Later? So the man gave the courtesan to the great general, as a curry favor. Qin Yiming said.

"Oh, it's really fateful, a lover has finally become a family." Hearing this, Chen Yuanyuan showed a hint of a smile, such an ending made her very pleased, thinking of what happened to her, she suddenly envied the courtesan, and there was a trace of melancholy in her beautiful eyes.

Qin Yiming smiled inwardly: Silly girl, you don't know that this courtesan is yourself!

"Do you know what happened?" Qin Yiming's appetite grew.

"And later? That must be the great shogun and the courtesan living happily ever after! ”

"Later, there was a rebellion in the empire, and those who rebelled entered the capital of that country, and one of the thieves, the general, was extremely lustful, and he had already heard that the courtesan was beautiful and beautiful, and he overwhelmed the country and the city, so he occupied it!"

"Ah, Gone with the Wind, what happened?"

Later, when the general learned that his wife was occupied by thieves, he was furious and turned into a red face, leading foreigners into the capital and snatching back his wife. However, because of this incident, the root cause was laid, and the courtesan lost the favor of the general in his later years, and finally lost his hair and became a nu. ”

"Hey...... Hmph, men have a virtue. Chen Yuanyuan suddenly became a resentful woman, muttering that Yin Tao was coquettish, Chen Yuanyuan's light makeup was originally an extremely visually impactful woman, with a beautiful appearance and a sexy and hot body. The slightly sweet crisp voice, and the pair of peach blossom eyes are even more intriguing. The mature charm of gestures can lead men to infinite reverie, this is definitely a stunner, a goblin, a devil, and Satan. Her arrival can trigger the deepest evil in the hearts of men.

How can such a woman not make a man angry.

Looking at Chen Yuanyuan's cute appearance, Qin Yiming couldn't help but sigh, women like to possess that kind of man, a hero who combines all the advantages of the world; And men, who like women who have merits, not all merits are placed on one person.

"Hehe, yes." Qin Yiming laughed dryly, the world is as black as a crow, and he must not be exempt from vulgarity.

Although Qin Yiming's story is not very vivid, the story itself is very attractive, and Chen Yuanyuan has already been drunk with it.

She walked to the window, pushed open the window with her green jade fingers, her wide sleeves were blown by the night breeze and kept swinging, leaning against the window, with a faint worry in her beautiful eyes, looking at the charming starry sky at night, half of her cheeks were as white as fat, and the graceful arc of her body was touching and charming.

"Hey, Qin Lang, look!" Chen Yuanyuan suddenly pointed to the night sky and shouted.

"What's wrong?"

"Look, the moon has eaten Venus!!" Chen Yuanyuan cried out, with unbelievable horror on his face.

Qin Yiming also came to the window, and sure enough, he saw this kind of vision, this Chongzhen really has the image of a dead country, what is the snow in April, what Venus appears in broad daylight, and now the moon has eaten Venus again, there are really too many such visions, in Chongzhen's own words, there are signs of the dead country everywhere.

Qin Yiming looked out the window, and on the street outside the window, many people noticed this vision in the night sky overhead tonight, and they all raised their heads and pointed, and they were talking about it.

"Hey, how could this Venus be eaten by the moon?"

"What Venus ate the moon? This is called the Lunar Eclipse, I heard that it has appeared before, and this is a symbol of disaster! ”

"Ah, a symbol of disaster, hey, why do I have so many disasters, is there less natural and man-made disasters? God, do you want us ordinary people to live! ”

"Hey, sooner or later, it's coming, and you can't hide from it, and I don't know what disaster will come to the world this time."

There are three or four people on the street, all of whom are talking about it, and those who know about this natural phenomenon can immediately attract many onlookers when they talk about the eclipse of the moon.

"Lunar Eclipse Glow, there's a catastrophe!" Chen Yuanyuan also looked sad and worried, as if he was feeling that the end of the world was coming, his face was pale, without the slightest blood.

Lunar Eclipse Glow? There is a catastrophe? Of course, Qin Yiming, a later generation, would not believe in these things, this so-called vision is just a normal astronomical phenomenon.

"Hehe, this is a natural phenomenon, and it has nothing to do with any catastrophe, it can be explained, rest assured, the earth still revolves around the sun."

Chen Yuanyuan's beautiful eyes widened, and he said stupidly: "Childe, isn't the sun revolving around the earth?" You see that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west every day, how can the earth revolve around the sun? ”

"Hehe, why don't I popularize the most basic astronomical knowledge with you?"

"Childe still knows astronomy?"

"Well, it's nothing, in the place where I came, three-year-olds know this."

Although Qin Yiming felt that the statement that the lunar eclipse implied disaster was very nonsense, Da Ming estimated that Qin Yiming would think so, and others would not think so.

In the early dynasties, the ministers argued endlessly over this lunar eclipse, and their faces were red.

A person wearing a unicorn red robe, standing straight, with a selfless and righteous face, the crane on his chest was lifelike, and he slowly came out of the ranks.

In the face of internal and external troubles, Yang Sichang proposed the policy of "four positive and six corners, ten sides of the net" to suppress the peasant army, and at the same time advocated that the Qing Dynasty should negotiate peace, and the outside must first be settled inside, which was proposed by him.

Huang Taiji's envoy has secretly arrived in Jingshi, and only a few people such as Chongzhen, Gao Qiqian, and Yang Sichang knew about this matter, and it was precisely because Yang Sichang tried his best to persuade Chongzhen to negotiate peace that there was this tentative contact.

In fact, the person who wants to negotiate peace the most is Huang Taiji, and Huang Taiji has asked for peace many times.

The first time was when Huang Taiji had just become a khan, and at that time Chongzhen had been in power for two months, Huang Taiji found a lama to deliver a letter to Daming, asking Chongzhen to recognize him as the Khan of Jin, but Chongzhen, who was young and determined to prosper Daming, was willing to agree, so the matter was over.

The second time Huang Taiji's peace was in the first year of Chongzhen, when the soldiers under the ancestor of the Liaoyuan general army Zu Dashou were captured, and the Huang Taiji put the Ming soldiers back in order to negotiate peace, and also sent a letter on his behalf: I want to pass the good of the two countries and seek peace together. It means that everyone wants to treat each other equally, and you Ming Dynasty can't despise my Jin Kingdom.

Zu Dashou replied: Who is the mourner? Who is the peacemaker?

Zu Dashou means that your Dajin Kingdom is not qualified to make peace, and the coaxing Zu Dashou made Huang Taiji retreat, and he did not send envoys to Daming to mourn the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

The third time is Huang Taiji and Yuan Chonghuan, Huang Taiji saw that Yuan Chonghuan led the sword of Shangfang, and at the same time he was the secretary of the military department and the governor of Jiliao, and he had great power, so he negotiated peace with Yuan Chonghuan, Yuan Chonghuan agreed, Huang Taiji put forward the condition that the Daling River and the Sancha River were bounded, and let the Ming inherit the fact that he was occupied by the Jin State, but Yuan Chonghuan's condition was to let Huang Taiji go back to Jianzhou, and the gap between the two sides was too big, so it was not negotiated, but this matter became one of the most important reasons for Yuan Chonghuan to be killed.

But what does the eclipse have to do with peace?

Everyone thought that the lunar eclipse was a bad omen, but Yang Sichang just said that he was a good thing, and he used the lunar eclipse to clearly put forward the idea of making peace with Huang Taiji in the court, which blew up the pot, and the Donglin party people were eager to kill him and hurry up.

"Your Majesty, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty for twenty-three years, when the Huns, the enemy of the Han Dynasty's henchmen, took the initiative to propose peace, everyone was noncommittal, and there was also a vision of the eclipse of the moon at that time, at that time the courtiers thought that this was a great omen, and they were all against the peace, but the minister Geng Guo tried his best to override the public opinion, and strongly recommended the Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty to negotiate peace, and finally the peace was successful, and the peace of the border for 20 years was guaranteed!" Yang Sichang has words and well-founded, although Chongzhen has been moved by him, but he is still hesitating, which is unpredictable.

"No, Your Majesty, I am dignified, how can I negotiate peace with the thieves in Jianzhou?" Chen Xinjia made a statement.

"Your Majesty, this lord and the people have ill intentions, mislead the country and the people, and should be killed!" Li Jiantai couldn't bear it anymore.

"Your Majesty, negotiating peace is a traitor, the alliance under the city, taking advantage of the danger of others is inevitable, now I am declining outside the Ming Pass, and the Liao thieves occupy my land and kill my people, what is it that is not a traitor to negotiate peace now? Peacemakers, let them be killed! Shoufu Zhang Zhifa said.

"The minister seconded the proposal!" Xue Guoguan is listed.

"The minister also seconded it!" Kong Yunzhen is out of the ranks.

"The minister also seconded it!" He Fengsheng came out of the ranks.

......

Chongzhen was very hesitant at this time, several members of the family objected, remembering Yuan Chonghuan back then, not only did he think of Yuan Chonghuan, but Yang Sichang also remembered Yuan Chonghuan at this moment, Yuan Chonghuan was executed by Ling Chi because of peace, will he also end up in the same fate, he secretly glanced at the dragon chair, and could only see Chongzhen's pair of dragon boots, motionless.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't say a word, the whole court was as silent as death, in the outer court, except for Yang Sichang, since no one came out to support the peace, so Chongzhen was very angry, and at the same time he was also very helpless, Zhang Zhifa, Xue Guoguan and others were all cabinet members, all opposed the peace, and Yang Sichang was not even a cabinet member.

"Let's discuss this matter again, now that Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai's giants are going to be Dongshan again, do you have any countermeasures?" Chongzhen asked.

The first assistant Zhang Zhi sent a column and said: "Your Majesty, you should immediately transfer troops to encircle and suppress, and the military department will mobilize Zuo Liangyu, Chen Hongfan and other general soldiers to encircle and suppress Zhang Xianzhong and other thieves. ”

"The soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, how much silver does it take to mobilize the army this time?" Chongzhen asked.

Chen Xinjia of the household department came out of the column and said: "This transfer of troops requires about 2.8 million taels of silver, but it is ......"

"But what?" Chongzhen asked.

"But there is no silver in the household, and at most more than one million taels can be raised, this gap is too big, Your Majesty!" Chen Xinjia said embarrassedly.

There is no money again, Chongzhen feels that he is short of money for whatever he wants to do!

"What is the good solution for Zhong Aiqing? You can tell it. ”

No one below spoke, silence is golden, no one can share the emperor's worries, Chongzhen said helplessly: "Now is the time when the country is in danger, can anyone share my worries?" ”

"Your Majesty, you can first distribute one million grains and silver from the household department, and let Zuo Liangyu and others pull it out first, at least you can deter Zhang Xianzhong and others." Yang Sichang proposed.

"Well, what Aiqing said makes sense, although this Zuo Liangyu disturbs the place, it can still fight." Chongzhen's meaning is also obvious, give some money first, let the generals under him move first, and let them collect the rest of the food and salary by themselves, which is also no way.

"Your Majesty, Zuo Liangyu is only a general soldier, and his prestige is not enough, and this campaign needs to send a prime minister with military talent." Chen Yuliang reminded.

"Then who is the candidate for Aiqing?" Chongzhen asked, but no one answered.

"Your Majesty, the minister recommends Xiong Wencan." Yang Sichang proposed.
