Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

Or is it said that Emperor Chongzhen's draft selection made the people miserable, and the people complained everywhere?

Hehe, who dares to say that, do you want to taste the imperial prison of Jinyiwei?

May Feixue is not without examples in history.

Volume [-] of Xu Jian's "Beginners" in the Tang Dynasty quoted "Huainanzi": During the Warring States Period, Zou Yan was loyal to King Yanhui, but was framed and imprisoned.Zou Yan looked up to the sky and cried loudly in the prison. It was hot summer, but suddenly there was a heavy snowstorm.

There is also "The Injustice of Dou E", which also said that Dou E was framed by scoundrels and wrongly sentenced to beheaded by Chuzhou prefect Taozhu.

When Dou E, who had nowhere to redress her grievances, was about to be executed, she made three vows to the sky: first, that the knife should be thrown too far, and all her blood would be splashed on Bai Lian; second, that heavy snow would cover her body; There was a severe drought in Chuzhou for three years.

With these two examples above, it is understandable what happened with the heavy snow in May—but at Xifengkou, firstly, there was no big bull like Zou Yan who was wronged, and secondly, there was no wrongful case like Dou E.

how to explain?

Anyway, the two Qin Tianjians in the north and the south feel very painful-there is no way to explain the crap like the heavy snow in May.

Nanqin Tianjian is fine, this incident happened at Xifengkou, it has nothing to do with Nanqin Tianjian, Beiqin Tianjian has no reason to shirk.

At least the black face of Emperor Chongzhen in the court hall, as black as the bottom of a pot, has already explained everything-I am just waiting for you to give me a reason!

Qin Tianjian, who was kneeling on the court hall, was looking around, but found that all the comrades in the court hall were watching their noses and noses, no one was planning to hit him at all.

Qin Tianjian, who was furious in his heart, was thinking about it, and planned to drag a group of colleagues into the water.

Anyway, I can't fall on the left or right, so it's better to finish it together!

PS: I will sacrifice another book "Jin Yi Ba Ming" about Jin Yiwei in the late Ming Dynasty.

Chapter 558 Has Your Majesty Forgot About Us?

Wen Tiren waited for a long time but didn't wait for other people to stand up. Laqin Tianjian was right, coughed and said: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I think that although flying snow in May is rare, it may not necessarily be due to some grievances. Warning?"

Qin Tianjian was overjoyed, and was about to join in, when Emperor Chongzhen snorted coldly and said: "I also know that the heavens did not police, but where did the police come from?"

After standing up from the dragon chair, Emperor Chongzhen simply walked down from the imperial steps: "Severe drought? The earth dragon turned over? Waterlogged? Foreign enemies invaded?"

Emperor Chongzhen, who was pacing back and forth in front of his officials, wanted to kill someone.

The three newly selected beautiful women are all waiting for him to have a good fortune in the harem, but suddenly such a stupid thing happened, how can he not hurt himself?

Could it be that God doesn't allow me to be lucky with these beautiful girls?

Crap!

Countless historical experiences tell Emperor Chongzhen that being a good emperor is not only about being diligent and caring for the people, or conquering countless countries.

It is also the responsibility and obligation of an emperor to have a lot of luck in the harem, and to have more sons, so that the throne will not be vacant, which may easily cause national turmoil.

So God's warning is definitely not to keep him away from female sex, it may also be because his son is too few.

An emperor who doesn't open a harem is not a good programmer.

But can you say that in court?You must push this matter to other matters, otherwise, if it gets out, you will become a lustful and foolish king.

It just so happens that the next few decades will be in the Little Ice Age, and natural disasters will definitely be inevitable, so why not use this name to find a perfect excuse for your behavior of accumulating food.

After walking back and forth for a few steps, Emperor Chongzhen simply continued: "I once said in Nanjing that the reserve warehouse should be re-established, but I think that the reserve warehouse is not enough. Close the position, what do you think?"

Wen Tiren secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that the emperor said so, it means that he didn't intend to start a massacre, but planned to expose this matter lightly.

As for the reserve warehouse and the regular warehouse, they are all trivial matters, and there is no need to compete with the emperor on such matters, since the willful Emperor Chongzhen can't be defeated anyway.

Not only Wen Tiren, but all the ministers in the court secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Emperor Chongzhen had just returned to Beijing when the incident of flying snow in May happened. If the emperor was furious and started to kill, this incident would be too disgusting.

But unlucky things are never done in the past, and most of them will come to trouble one after another.

In May, just after the heavy snowfall at Xifengkou, the unlucky event in June followed, or the event in June verified the warning of the snow in May that Emperor Chongzhen said.

There was severe drought in Beijing, Shandong, and Henan, and locust plagues also occurred at the same time.

Although Chongzhen has been digging wells non-stop, but in the face of this severe drought, it still seems to have more than enough energy.

However, the preparatory warehouse that Emperor Chongzhen had implemented in Nanjing had just been filled with grain and was borrowed by the people who were short of food, so Emperor Chongzhen had to prepare food for disaster relief again.

In the face of this severe drought involving Beijing, Shandong, and Henan, even the plague of locusts has become inconspicuous.

After the large-scale killing of locusts in the past few years, although there were also locusts in the past few years until the 11th year of Chongzhen, there was no major locust disaster.

Even the locust plague this time is the same. Although it occurred in the two capitals and Shandong, Henan and other places at the same time, the scale is not large.

After all, locusts are not only edible, but also taste good. Even if the locusts actually destroyed some food, more locusts were caught by the red-eyed people and stuffed into their stomachs.

Even the eunuchs sent by Emperor Chongzhen to buy locusts failed to receive them.

That's right, it's not that they didn't receive many questions, but that they didn't receive even one locust at all, and they were all caught and eaten by the people.

The locusts are not enough to eat - those guys who are thinking about raising locusts haven't studied how to raise them, they can only rely on catching and eating them during the locust plague.

Under the circumstances that the people have generally believed that locusts are a good thing, and they can't eat enough for themselves, how can there be any excess to sell to those dead eunuchs?

In addition, rumors began to spread in Jiangnan and other places.

When Emperor Chongzhen was in the south of the Yangtze River, it is not an exaggeration to say that the weather was good. As soon as Emperor Chongzhen returned to Beijing, so many things happened. What does this mean?

It shows that the emperor of the real dragon toured the world, and all the places received the grace of the emperor. Naturally, it was a training of wind and rain. After the emperor returned to Beijing, he did not receive the grace and rain, and naturally there was a severe drought.

The most important thing is that when His Majesty was in Nanjing, other places were not affected by the disaster, which means that Longxing Jiangnan should move the capital to Nanjing.

The best proof is what happened after His Majesty returned to Beijing.

In June, there was rain and hail in Ganshihe Mountain Farm in Xuanfu, killing 48 horses.

In June, the factory disaster in Anmin destroyed the city walls and houses, killing and injuring the residents.

And this severe drought and locust plague, is it enough to explain the problem?

Emperor Chongzhen naturally didn't care much about such rumors.

When I was in Nanjing, I caught up with Daming and the overall environment was good. When I returned to Beijing, there was a drought. This kind of coincidence happened, and rumors were really normal.

These things, no one wants them to happen, but since they have already happened, it is enough to do a good job in disaster relief. As long as the people can survive, these things are not a problem.

Especially in Java and Majapahit, the people have already been relocated there, and even the grain has been harvested twice.
