Take a plane to the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 328 Chen Yuan
Emperor Chongzhen asked very suddenly, but Zhu Changyuan was not surprised at all.

After more than two years of hard work, no matter how politically conscious a person is, he is almost tempered now. The emperor has already guessed since he was transferred from the position of governor of Shaanxi.

In addition, it happened that Liaodong was defeated, Hong Chengchou surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, many generals died in battle, and the emperor had no more soldiers to use. Therefore, it was not surprising that he was asked to supervise Ji Liao.

Zhu Changyuan didn't want to go if he said a thousand words and ten thousand.

Why, because when he went, he would have to fight with Huang Taiji face to face. If there were no major accidents, with his current mentality and financial resources, it is still possible for him to be unable to take care of himself. However, this is Zhu Changyuan didn't want to see it.

After driving away Huang Taiji, who will challenge Chongzhen?No one challenged Chongzhen, how to overthrow the Ming Dynasty?Unable to overthrow the Ming Dynasty, when will his ideal and mission be completed?

As for rebelling in person, if it is not a last resort, he will not do it. After all, it is not good to be named a rebel at that time, and it is very likely to be engraved on the pillars of history by the officials with swords and pens to promote his own. ethics.

Sooner or later, the Ming Empire will eat it into its stomach, but now that it has this ability, it can't be too anxious, more or less scruples about eating and moral integrity.

Also, in order to consider Zhang Yan's feelings, you can't bite the bullet and pull the flag to rebel. Maybe this woman hanged like Emperor Chongzhen, and the loss outweighs the gain.

Don't say it's impossible, in the original history, this former empress had a great integrity. When Li Zicheng broke the capital, if Li Xin, a fellow from Henan, hadn't arrived earlier, this delicate and beautiful beauty would have almost hanged on the beam superior.

"Your Majesty!" Zhu Changyuan hastily put the wine glass in his hand on the small table in front of him, then took a step back and knelt down and said, "Forgive me, Your Majesty, this is a big matter, and I may not be able to do it!"

Chongzhen thought that Zhu Changyuan was afraid of the big pit in Liaodong like other courtiers, so he laughed. This time, instead of letting Zhu Cihong get up, he walked to Zhu Changyuan's side, helped him up, and said, "Why is the emperor like this? I have always known the ability of the emperor's uncle, and there is no one in Liaodong who is not a prince!"

At the same time, Chongzhen's mind was beating drums.

In case Zhu Changyuan is unwilling to go, not only is there no hope of recovering this corner of Liaodong, Shanhaiguan is in danger of being lost. In case Wu Sangui can't hold it and is taken away by Huang Taiji, the Ming Dynasty is really exposed to the fangs of Jianlu up.

Although the city of Beijing is easy to defend and difficult to attack, how long can it last under protracted conditions?
This guy must be coaxed over, not asking for complete recovery, as long as he can return to the level of the early years of Chongzhen and leave a decent country for future generations, I will be satisfied.

The point is, after I live forever, no matter how it is written in the history books, the territory of the Ming Dynasty will not be lost in my hands. Although it is not commendable, it can also be exempted from harsh criticism; see Emperor Taizu, Emperor Chengzu, and my grandfather in the underworld , Brother, but also some face, isn't it?
"Uncle, please don't abandon me." Chongzhen was crying, wanting to learn from Liu Bei's acting, but he didn't have that talent, so he should have shed two tears, but at the end he could only smile wryly, shook his head and said: "Heaven doesn't love me, and heaven punishes all the people. The water is deep and hot, and the land of Sichuan and Shaanxi is empty; Seeing the ancestors fall into the hands of barbarians?"

This is called understanding with affection.

Then, he had to reason, and supported Zhu Changyuan to explain a lot of truths. Unfortunately, this guy looked respectful, but he didn't listen to a word in his heart.

Finally, the emperor used his trump card again, saying: "Uncle Emperor Ding Jingxiang and Ping Shanxi, he has worked hard and made great achievements. It is not too much to compare with Chang Pinghou and Champion Hou of the Han Dynasty."

Marquis of Changping, Wei Qing!

Champion Hou, Huo Qubing!
For a general, this is undoubtedly a very high evaluation.

What's more, it was admitted by the emperor himself, even Zhu Changyuan, who has no integrity, can't help being moved.

"It's a pity that Chang Yuan has no heirs. Otherwise, I will follow the example of Emperor Xiaowu. Qing's heirs are all nobles!" Liaodong, not to mention rewards, all of your future heirs will be enshrined.

Of course Zhu Changyuan knew in his heart that the old emperor was painting cakes, but unfortunately, it was of no use to Zhu Changyuan, who was not hungry.

However, the moment the emperor talked about the problem of heirs, he suddenly thought of one thing: Nima Laozi went to the hospital for an examination, and there was nothing wrong with his body and tadpoles. Didn't mean to be happy?
Could it be that the two of them have problems?
Seeing Zhu Changyuan's absent-minded look, Chongzhen couldn't help being slightly annoyed. As a courtier, it was a bit arrogant to deal with the king like this.

But how did the emperor know that at this time, Zhu Changyuan's heart had already flown nine days away.

"Hey!" Chongzhen patted Zhu Changyuan on the back, and said, "Uncle Huang, think about it first, come, have a drink with me!" After speaking, he picked up his wine bottle and came straight to Zhu Changyuan.

Zhu Changyuan suddenly realized, and hurriedly apologized to the emperor, and told the truth: "Your Majesty forgives the rudeness of the minister. It is true that your Majesty just mentioned the matter of heirs, and the minister is not sure, alas..."

"Oh!" Chongzhen laughed loudly, and at the same time relieved his depression, he said, "There is no need to worry, it is easy, but don't worry about concubines!" Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said, "Some time ago, my relative Tian Hongyu came from Suzhou Mansion. Send me a beautiful girl, I heard that the emperor's uncle loves beauties, and today I will share the joy of silk and bamboo with Qing."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand to the only two palace maids left below, and said, "Call Chen Ji to come here, how can the emperor be unhappy here."

"According to the order!"

The two maids went down, and the whole room became quiet again. Chongzhen poured a glass of wine with a "shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh value, shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, There is also little singing and dancing, today, the emperor's uncle came here with a cold body, and I made an exception to catch the wind and wash away the dust for you."

"I am sincere and fearful!" Zhu Changyuan also poured a glass of wine, raised it above his head, saluted the emperor respectfully, and said, "I respect and thank Your Majesty."

"This spring Tian Hongyu found Chen Ji from the Suzhou Mansion. It is said that she is very beautiful. I am busy with state affairs and have not yet seen her. Chang Yuan is here today, how about we take a look together?"

After finishing speaking, before Zhu Changyuan could answer, he looked at his eldest son and prince Zhu Cihong, and said, "The prince can step down."

The prince reluctantly walked out of the hall.

Chongzhen knew in his heart that Tian Hongyu sent Meiren Chen to the palace not out of good intentions, but because Concubine Tian Guifei had lost power in the harem in recent years, and the power was concentrated on Empress Zhou alone.

It's a pity that Tian Hongyu made a wrong calculation, because Chongzhen was not a womanizer in the first place, and for the sake of state affairs, he had no time to indulge in sex on weekdays.

Therefore, Chen Meiren's fate was tragic. After being sent to the palace, she didn't even see the emperor for half a year, let alone the favor that Tian Hongyu promised back then.

But today, her luck seems to have come.

Because, the emperor ordered her to perform the dance.

But the moment she received the order, she was extremely entangled.

On the one hand, if one is favored by the emperor, in this life, one can soar upwards and become a phoenix. At that time, not only will no one dare to criticize one's status as a singer, but one can also issue orders, decide life and death in a fit of anger, and dictate orders.

But on the other hand, as a woman who has been reduced to prostitution, she can't help but bump into the capital all the way, and taste the sorrows of the world, and miss that figure that has drifted away even more.

"What should I do? What if Your Majesty asks me to sleep with you?" Chen Meiren asked herself, after a long time, she finally made a decisive decision to enter with a dagger hidden in her waist!
A quarter of an hour later, Chen Meiren entered the side hall brightly lit with candles. In the hall, there were only Zhu Changyuan and Emperor Chongzhen.

"Your Majesty, Beauty Chen is here!"

The maid reported.

"Xuan!"

Then, under the cover of the two maids, Chen Meiren slowly entered.

The shadow of the candle was flickering, the brilliance was blurred, beauty Chen half covered her face, followed the maids up the stairs, and then knelt down in front of the emperor, whispering softly, "Chen Yuan, the daughter of the people, greets the Son of Heaven, long live Your Majesty."

The sound is like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley.

"Sure enough, beauty, even though we haven't met yet, just hearing this voice is already intoxicating!" Chongzhen first praised, and then said: "Raise your head."

Chen Yuan lay down on the ground, raised his head slightly, but lowered his eyes, not daring to look up.

After seeing her face, not only Chongzhen, but also Zhu Changyuan, who was next to him who wanted to watch the fun, was taken aback.

I saw Chen Yuan's complexion was white, plump and plump, brilliant and outstanding, as beautiful as a flower.

No wonder Tian Hongyu dared to send Meiren Chen to the palace in order to be favored by the Queen of Zhou. It turned out that she was a genuine beauty. Upon closer inspection, she did not look like a woman in the world. She was as clean as a fairy.

"Uncle, how is this girl?"

Chongzhen couldn't help but took a sip of wine and asked.

Although Zhu Changyuan is prone to sperm, he can still restrain himself under such circumstances. Knowing the main purpose of coming today, he bowed his hands to Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty let the ministers watch the song and dance. It is not yet known that Chen Meiren has not danced yet!"

"Hahaha!" Chongzhen laughed a few times and said, "Well, the beauty should dance first."

Chen Yuan said: "Return to Your Majesty, Minnv is just an ordinary singer, not good at dancing, let's sing for Your Majesty and Your Excellency."

Chongzhen nodded, then turned to Zhu Changyuan: "Uncle Huang asks questions!"

Zhu Changyuan said: "My minister is dull and doesn't understand rituals and music. Why don't you let Chen Meiren sing by herself."

"Good!" The emperor agreed by clapping his hands, saying: "Beauty, please stand up and play music.".

Chen Yuan stood up from the ground, retreated to a stool and sat down, then took out a pipa, reached out to play it, and opened his mouth to sing at the same time.
