Loneliness opens without an owner. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's dusk and I'm alone,

More wind and rain.

I have no intention of fighting for spring,

A group of jealous.

Scattered into mud and dust,

Only fragrant as before. ”

Chen Yuan sang a song lyrics, a song from the hand of Lu You, a family in the Southern Song Dynasty. Yongmei", needless to say, the voice is beautiful, which is tactful and poignant, like crying, and it is even more intoxicated to listen to Zhu Changyuan and Chongzhen on the seat.

Although Lu You's poem is written about plum blossoms on the surface, he actually writes about his own encounters and the country's misfortune, using plum blossoms as a metaphor to highlight his own ups and downs and the misfortune of his family and country.

How similar is Chen Yuan's opportunity to the plum blossoms in this poem?

Lonely and desolate, full of wind and rain!

In his early years, his parents died, and he was sent to the fence; When he grew up, he was forced into the pear orchard and served people with Israel; Later, he found a slightly better family, but he was abandoned before he got married; I had a one-sided relationship with the famous Jiangnan genius Mao Xiang, and I was willing to make a private decision for life, but unfortunately, the lover of the later meeting failed to make an appointment; Later, the family was robbed, and I was fortunate enough to get out, I thought I had gotten out of the tiger's mouth, but I never wanted to enter the wolf's den again, and was forcibly taken back by my cousin Tian Hongyu, and brought into Beijing to give it to the emperor.

The poor lover is in a foreign land, I don't know if he is still looking for it?

"Alas!" Chongzhen squinted his eyes, exhaled deeply, and said: "No wonder Tian Hongyu said that you are both beautiful and artistic, and your name moves Jiangzuo, I thought he was exaggerating at the beginning, but when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation!" ”

"Uncle Huang, what do you think of this woman's appearance and talent?"

Chongzhen drank another glass of wine and tilted his head towards Zhu Changyuan and asked.

Needless to say, the talent has just sung, and he has completely conquered Zhu Changyuan.

This product is a person who has come from modern society, and has never heard the singing of the ancients, and there has always been a misunderstanding before, thinking that singing is of course a good modern song, and the things sung by the ancients must be very sour, listen to a yarn.

So. Although he is in a high position and many people are vying to send the singers, Zhu Changyuan has never heard of them once, and all the singers have become the wives of his subordinates.

But today, I heard Chen Yuan finish singing Lu You's "Fortune Operator? Yongmei". Only then did I know that I was sitting in a well and watching the sky.

It turns out that the ancient music is so good, and the original ancient music is so graceful and lingering.

As for the appearance of Chen Yuan in front of him. Not to mention, pretty, beautiful, using these words to describe her, you can't describe Chen Ji's temperament at all.

How to say it, Chen Yuan and Zhang Yan should be beauties on the same level, but there are slight differences between the two.

Zhang Yanmei is in temperament, bright and bright, and has a plump appearance.

But the Chen Yuan in front of him is beautiful in his bones. The kind of petite and lovely, with a hint of sadness between the eyebrows, seems to be really like a plum blossom that has been weathered by the wind and rain, tossing and turning, helpless, and people can have infinite pity and love at first sight.

To Emperor Chongzhen's question, Zhu Changyuan replied with four words: "I only see it in my life!" ”

"The beauty of Chen Ji is the only one seen in the life of a minister!" Zhu Changyuan looked at Chen Yuan, who was slightly nervous in front of him, and said again.

Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly and said, "Since that's the case." Then I will send Chen Ji to Uncle Huang! ”

Nani?

Zhu Changyuan's mind became sluggish for a moment, and he paused for a moment before he reacted, and said, "The minister is guilty of capital crimes, how dare the minister take away His Majesty's love?" ”

Fight with the emperor for women. Hehe!

It's not that he doesn't dare, but it's not necessary, although this Chen Ji in front of him is beautiful, he doesn't want to be tied to Chongzhen's chariot because of a woman.

"That's it." Chongzhen waved his hand and said to the palace maid below: "Someone will send Chen Ji to the Imperial Uncle's Mansion!" ”

For Chongzhen, don't say it's a Chen beauty. It's that all the women in the harem can do without, as long as the country is stable, and the Ming Dynasty has been around for thousands of years, is there no woman yet?

At the moment, the most important thing is to envelop Zhu Changyuan and let him work hard for the Ming Dynasty to clean up the mess in Liaodong.

Zhu Changyuan is not a fool, the emperor's words and deeds have intentions, of course he can guess it.

The large courtyard house that he was confiscated before in Jingshi Middle School has now been unsealed, and the emperor personally asked the Ministry of Industry to decorate it for him, not only restoring all the old things to their original appearance, but also adding a lot of new furniture.

Therefore, this Chen Ji, who was forcibly sent by Zhu Changyuan that Zhu Changyuan couldn't stop, was forcibly sent to the mansion like this.

Nima, this is to forcibly explode my chrysanthemum.

Zhu Changyuan was still thinking nonsense, in his heart, Emperor Chongzhen over there had regained his previous majesty, and the old words were brought up again, and said: "Uncle Huang has contributed to the society, and it is natural for me to reward some things, if he makes military merits again in the future, it will be a king of splitting the earth, and it is not impossible, I don't know what concerns Aiqing has about the affairs of Liaodong?" ”

After giving gifts, he immediately began to ask for benefits, and the emperor was so undisciplined.

However, Zhu Changyuan was not much better than Chongzhen's discipline, and continued to shirk and said: "Your Majesty, Liaodong is different from Shaanxi, and the ministers are afraid of the lack of strength. ”

"Uncle Huang, don't shirk again!" Chongzhen was on fire in his heart, but now he couldn't attack, so he held back a breath and said earnestly: "The tax has been collected this autumn, I can allocate two million taels of silver and use it with the emperor's uncle as military salary, if it is not enough, I would rather take the treasures in the palace to the market and sell them to the front line!" ”

The emperor's words said this, Zhu Changyuan was not good at playing Tai Chi anymore, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Your Majesty, let me tell you the truth, the minister thinks that the situation in Liaodong can not be solved by military salaries." ”

"The minister thinks that it is better to send a minister who can be familiar with local affairs to run the business by letting the general who can fight against Huang Taiji in Liaodong. Otherwise, if you capture Ningyuan and Jinzhou today, even if it is Shenyang Wei, but tomorrow Jianyu will come back, and the city will be lost again, what is the use? It's just a waste of money and a waste of money. ”

"Take 10,000 steps back, even if you wipe out all the prisoners, will you be able to end the border trouble forever? Donghu perished, the Xiongnu were strong again, the Xiongnu perished and Rouran, after Rouran, there was Xianbei, Xianbei had Turkic, and with the ability of Tang Taizong, he suffered the shame of Weishui. ”

"Then when will the Liao Kingdom, the Wanyan Jin Kingdom, the Mongolia Kingdom, and even today's Jianguo be closed?"

Chongzhen was speechless when asked by Zhu Changyuan, but after less than half a minute, he understood that he had just been stolen by Zhu Changyuan.

"Uncle Huang is thinking far-reaching." Chongzhen took a sip of the wine glass and said, "But things have to be done step by step, and the top priority now is to recover Liaodong, and after Liaodong is recovered, we can talk about the rest." ”

"Yes!" Zhu Changyuan also took a sip of wine, adjusted his thinking, and said: "The minister has no foundation in Liaodong, and there is an old gap with Wu Sangui, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, if you let Weichen recover Liaodong, Your Majesty needs to agree to two conditions." ”

"Oh?"

The courtiers and the Son of Heaven put forward conditions, generally speaking, there is no good end, but now that he has no choice but to do so, Zhu Changyuan can't scruple so much, no matter whether Chongzhen Gao is happy or not, it is better to be a villain first and then a gentleman.

"Uncle Huang said to hear it!"

Chongzhen's face did not show any different color.

Zhu Changyuan got up, knelt down in front of Chongzhen, and said: "The minister is brave, I implore Your Majesty to promise two points, otherwise, the minister will die and dare not go out of Liaodong!" ”

"Say it." Chongzhen Road.

"First, the recovery of Liaodong is protracted, not an overnight achievement, the minister is willing to establish a three-year period with His Majesty, and the whole Liao will be recovered within three years, however, the minister asks His Majesty to grant the minister the power to pass through Liaodong."

Zhu Changyuan put forward his own conditions.

Chongzhen pondered for a long time and asked, "What is power?" ”

Zhu Changyuan said: "The minister is in Liaodong, and he doesn't want any soldiers, horses, money, food, etc., but there is one point, His Majesty needs to give the minister full authority to give the land of Liaodong for three years, and in these three years, whether it is the court or the locality, whether it is the cabinet or Your Majesty, no one is allowed to make any accusations or intervene in the minister's strategic plan, and no one is allowed to interfere in any affairs and military affairs in Liaodong. Three years later, the minister returned His Majesty a complete Liaodong. ”

After speaking, he looked up at Chongzhen.

Chongzhen's face was ugly, and it was quite ugly.

If you really want Zhu Changyuan to do this in Liaodong, then there is no doubt that this will be a first-class kingdom and become a local separatist regime that will not be able to fall.

Of course, if Zhu Changyuan is obedient and hands over the military power and territory in his hands to the imperial court, everything will be easy to say.

But if this goods are seized from Liaodong, then he will be another Huang Taiji, no, even a henchman who is even more powerful than Huang Taiji.

Intuition told Chongzhen that the person in front of him not only couldn't believe it, but also couldn't use it.

However, thinking of Zhu Changyuan's generous dedication to the entire army and power of Shaanxi before, Emperor Chongzhen had a glimmer of hope in his heart, of course, hoping that Zhu Changyuan was a loyal minister through and through.

Now there are only two options in front of him.

One is to use Zhu Changyuan, but once he uses it, he has to risk his self-reliance.

The second is that he doesn't need it, if he doesn't use it, he won't worry about his self-reliance, but the land of Liaodong does not belong to the Ming Dynasty.

In general, the first point is risky, but there is also hope, and the second point is hopeless, it is all risk.

The lesser of two evils, Chongzhen only took less than a quarter of an hour to think it through, and now the situation in front of him has decided, he can only believe in Zhu Changyuan wholeheartedly.

"First, I promised you, tell me about your second request."

Chongzhen wrapped the coat on his body, calmed down, and listened to Zhu Changyuan's second request, generally speaking, it is easy first and then difficult, and the second point should be more difficult to accept than the first point.

But Zhu Changyuan was the opposite, although the second request was a bit abrupt, it made Emperor Chongzhen breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhu Changyuan's second requirement is very simple, two words: trust.

"If the ministers pass through Liaodong and hold the power of life and death, the hundred officials in the court will naturally be dissatisfied with the ministers, and when the time comes for the group to impeach the ministers, Your Majesty must not be confused by slander, otherwise it will be difficult to succeed in Liaodong."
