Chongzhen encouraged Wu Weiye: "Qing should really learn to be rich and five cars!" Qing went with me this time, and the comparison and analysis of historical data depends on Qing's strength. Qing looked at what other possible information he needed, just put it forward and let people go to Wenyuan Pavilion to get it. I know that I am well-read and knowledgeable, and I must be able to keep it in my heart. Yiren also said that the information was not complete, and this library could not be moved, so he could only ask Qing to make a living library. Presumably from now on, it is said that people are talented and no longer use 'learning rich five cars', but 'learning through Wenyuan'. ”

Wu Weiye couldn't cry or laugh: "Your Majesty is too elevated to the ministers." The "Yongle Canon" in this Wenyuan Pavilion is a huge volume, maybe the minister will stay in it for a lifetime, and this life will live long enough, so that there is hope to really 'learn through Wenyuan', and what the minister is learning now is said to be one or two of them are lifting the minister. ”

After a pause, Wu Weiye continued: "This history related to the disaster, Rong Chen recalls, see where he can't remember clearly, even if it's all night today, he will definitely remember as much as he needs to." The rest must be one or two books that can be summarized, so you might as well find someone to transcribe them and take them with you. At that time, if there are omissions in Zongchen, it can also be used as a supplement. ”

On the other side, going around and around, the little eunuch finally found Chen Zilong.

Although Chen Zilong is romantic, he is extremely patriotic and enthusiastic about serving the country. When he heard that the emperor had summoned him, he didn't say a word, put down the manuscript in his hand and went to meet with the eunuch. The little eunuch looked anxious: "Lord Chen, are you going to see you in this dress?" Isn't this a proper loss of honor in front of the king? Not only will you be hanged, but we will also suffer. ”

Chen Zilong looked down, but no, he was immersed in repairing books these days, and he didn't take care of his appearance. In the past, although I didn't pay attention to myself when I was at home, I had my mother to clean up when I was young, and my wife to take care of me when I grew up. The worry about his mother, the guilt of his wife, and the longing for Liu Ruye are even worse.

"Thank you father-in-law for the point." Chen Zilong is the backbone of the Restoration Society and is at odds with the eunuch party. But not all eunuchs were divided into "eunuchs". During the Chongzhen period, because Wei Zhongxian's power was too great before, the so-called "eunuch party" refers to Wei Zhongxian's henchmen. Wei Zhongxian's henchmen in the palace were basically cleaned up by Chongzhen, and Cao Huachun was not a vegetarian, so this little eunuch was naturally under Cao Huachun's hands. At least at this time, Cao Huachun still had a very friendly relationship with the Donglin Party and the Fushe.

Chen Zilong thanked the little eunuch for the reminder, so he hurriedly packed himself up and hurriedly freshened up before following the little eunuch into the palace to meet him. Because of the delay for a long time, it was clear that the emperor sent someone to find Chen Zilong first, but Chen Zilong arrived later.

Chongzhen asked people to show Chen Zilong the fold first.

Chen Zilong has no job yet, so he naturally did not participate in the morning dynasty, so he did not know about this story. After reading the statement about the cause of the rainfall, I couldn't help but nod secretly, and I felt that I had met a confidant: although what this person said was very different from what he had learned, he was in the same way as the scientific research method taught to him by the teacher. Thinking about whether this statement is reasonable, he immediately nodded: this statement is very reasonable, and it should be true. I thought this was the end of it, but I was both puzzled and looking forward to what was written later.

When he saw the prediction of the disaster in the compromise, his first thought was not whether the prediction was true, but once the prediction was true, what methods of farmland and water conservancy could minimize the harm of the disaster, and his mind returned to the "Agricultural Book" that he had been sorting out these days.

Chongzhen listened to Wu Weiye's analysis before, and felt that no one in the DPRK could understand the theory of Yiren, so he didn't say much, and wanted to see if Chen Zilong could give more constructive opinions after reading it. At this time, seeing that Chen Zilong really fell into contemplation after reading it, he must have gained a lot, so he didn't bother, flipped through other materials, and waited for Chen Zilong to figure it out by himself.

After thinking about it for a quarter of an hour, Chen Zilong finally thought of a rudimentary plan to fight the disaster, woke up from his contemplation, and realized that he had lost his dignity in front of the king, and quickly remedied: "Your Majesty, the minister fell into contemplation and lost his temper. ”

Chongzhen shook his head: "It's okay." Qing has been thinking about it for so long, and there should be something to gain, what is the truth of what is said in this compromise? ”

Chen Zilong returned: "The things that are said in the twists and turns should be true. Not only that, but from Zhongchen, I found that like rain, the climate of the four seasons of the year is probably also formed because of this wind. In winter, the northwest wind blows, and the northwest of my Ming Dynasty is a vast desert and cold continent, so the northwest wind is dry and cold, so the winter is very cold. In summer, the southeast wind blows, and the southeast of Daming is an endless and hot sea, so the southeast wind is hot and humid, so the summer is hot and rainy. As for spring and autumn, it should be a time of change. ”

Chongzhen is not very interested in the cause of the rain now, and everyone thinks that this part is true, so when he saw Chen Zilong say this, he just nodded: "The key now is the prediction of the disaster, do you think this prediction is credible?"

Chen Zilong was stunned when he heard this, he saw the disaster just now, and subconsciously thought about how to fight the disaster, but he didn't think about the truth of this matter, but this obviously did not bother him: "Back to Your Majesty, when Master Xu was alive, he made many achievements in agriculture and disaster resistance. Under the guidance of Master Xu, he also had a lot of research on the calendar and agricultural time. From an astronomical point of view, periodic celestial changes are certain. The stars in the sky as a whole revolve around the North Star, and a year is a cycle.

"There are other stars that have their own peculiar cycles, and among them comets appear in cycles of about 76 years. Spring and Autumn said: 'In autumn and July, there are stars entering the Beidou', which is a comet. Historical Records? Qin Shi Huang Benji said: 'In seven years, the comet first came out of the east, saw the north, and saw the west in May. 'Since the seventh year of Qin Shi Huang, every seventy-six years or so, there have been detailed records of the appearance of the comet. The last time a comet appeared was in the '35th year of Wanli August Xinyoushuo, the comet was seen in Dongjing, pointing to the southwest, gradually going northwest. Ren Wu has been extinguished since the beginning of the house. ’

From this reasoning, it is entirely possible from an astronomical point of view that the period of frequent natural disasters mentioned by the Inhumans is a cycle of several hundred years. It's just that the periodic estimation of many phenomena is not as accurate as that of comets. There are also some phenomena that will change due to various factors, and the cycle is not fixed, taking comets as an example, the time of comet appearance can be basically determined from the records, but it is difficult to guess the location of the comet. This situation makes it difficult to estimate the duration and duration of the disaster.

The minister also did not know where this person deduced the inference that the disaster would last for a long time. However, the climate began to change around the thirteenth year of Wanli, not the twenty-eighth year of Wanli, which the minister is very sure of. As Yiren said, in the twenty-eighth year of Wanli, the climate was already very unstable, freezing three feet was not a day's cold, and the climate did not suddenly become chaotic, during which there was a slow process of change. Xu Shi once told his ministers that he found that the large-scale climate chaos that began in the 28th year of Wanli was symptomatic, and in the previous ten to fifteen years, there were abnormal climates in a small area in various places, because the scope was not significant, and the disasters caused were not serious, so they were often ignored. Mr. Xu said he had not been able to figure out the causes of climate change. But he also said that these natural disasters must be related to climate anomalies, but there is no conclusive evidence to confirm it, and no reason can be found. This is also a big regret of Mr. Xu's life.

Xu was worried that natural disasters would continue, and the "Book of Agriculture" included many effective ways to deal with disasters. It's a pity that Xu couldn't finish the manuscript before his death, and only the draft is now in the hands of the minister. The minister has been sorting out the manuscript of Master Xu these days, hoping to pay it as soon as possible. ”
