Chapter 6 Sleepless Night

() In the imperial study room, after Emperor Chongzhen sat down, he waved the other maids and eunuchs to leave, leaving only Wang Chengen. Emperor Chongzhen did not speak immediately, but calmed down for a while, and then said slowly: "Today

What happened is really unbelievable. A man suddenly fell from the air. He was neither a fairy nor a demon. He claimed to be from the later generations. The history he told was unheard of and unheard of." After sighing for a while, Emperor Chongzhen asked Wang Cheng'en: "Big companion.

, what do you think of what he said about the relationship between ordinary people, scholar-bureaucrats and the emperor?"

"Your Majesty," Wang Chengen slowed down, quickly organized his words, and then replied: "I think Mr. Zhong's words are reasonable, and he uses popular language to understand the world's people's hearts, but he is a little bit generalized."

Emperor Chongzhen said: "How do you say that?"

Wang Chengen came a little closer and replied: "Your Majesty is a sage king, how can ordinary people not survive? Not to mention the people from far away, I just watch the people in the capital. Many of them have fun in their spare time.

If you can't live, how can you behave like this? On the other hand, scholar-bureaucrats may not all be selfish and obsessed with money."

Emperor Chongzhen smiled bitterly and said: "Don't comfort me, my dear friend. After Mr. Zhong's prompting, I felt as if I was enlightened. Do you remember that my dear friend, I heard that there were stories of Yi Zi cannibalizing each other in Shaanxi and other places, I thought it was an exaggeration and ignored it.

, now I think it is indeed possible; on the other hand, last year, during the court meeting, a group of ministers used the late emperor's tax collection to cause natural disasters as an excuse to ask me to reduce the tax on tea to please God and ensure smooth weather in the Ming Dynasty. I was not sure at that time.

, he is the sinner of successive years of natural disasters. Also, it is said that the late emperor’s ban on sea customs and the sending of eunuchs to collect taxes was a serious violation of the ancestral system. The continuous natural disasters also proved that collecting customs taxes is a great bad policy, so I have banned customs taxes again, which is bullying.

I was young and ignorant, and used the ancestral system to suppress me. I now think about it. Those who read the books of sages will do more harm. In the future, don’t blame me for the power of my Shangfang sword!" After saying this, Emperor Chongzhen even took the photo with hatred.

Go down to the imperial desk.

Wang Chengen hurriedly bowed and advised: "Your Majesty, please calm down and don't let your anger ruin the dragon body. Now that your Majesty knows it, and God has sent Mr. Zhong to assist your Majesty, your Majesty will definitely be able to suppress as many civil servants as you like, and revive the Ming Dynasty."

"

When Emperor Chongzhen saw Wang Chengen mentioning Zhong Jinwei, he thought for a moment and said to Wang Chengen: "I think Zhong Jinwei likes to have fun and is a good woman. As long as he can help me revive the Ming Dynasty, you can satisfy him. Okay, let's start approving the memorial.

.”

Wang Chengen bowed again and said: "Promise!"

At this time, Zhong Jinwei never thought that since he was rated as "fun-loving and a good woman" by Emperor Chongzhen. If he knew about it, he would probably be very aggrieved. Who in the previous life would not like to have a beautiful female secretary to help him at work?

Work, travel and relax in his spare time. Zhong Jinwei is tossing and turning in bed at this time. In his previous life, he was a night owl and would not go to bed after 23:00. Now it is about eight o'clock in the evening. There is no electricity, so there is no such thing as the previous life.

The only way to have fun is to sleep, but today’s experience was so strange that I couldn’t sleep no matter what!!!

After lying in bed for a while, he remembered Archie sleeping outside, and couldn't help but think of his old college life and the chat show after lights out. So he tried to contact him and whispered: "Archie, sleep

Is it done?”

Today was also a strange experience for Archie. How could he fall asleep all at once? He watched a man fall from the sky, making strange words, getting a monk's haircut, and talking about going to heaven and earth. He didn't even know who he was.

What happened? In the end, His Majesty gave it to him. I don’t know what his fate will be in the future. But he doesn’t seem to be very fierce, nor is he the kind of man who is obsessed with sex. He seems to be a little cute. He is a grown man, and

Shy. Just as she was thinking about it, she heard Zhong Jinwei's voice. After weighing it for a moment, she whispered back: "Master, do you need a slave to pour water for you?" While making the bed for him, she caught a glimpse of Zhong Jinwei pouring water himself.

Drinking a few cups of tea. (She didn’t know that it was Zhong Jinwei who was a little nervous, so he drank water to hide it.)

When Zhong Jinwei heard Archie's reply, he became very excited and said, "I can't sleep, let's chat?"

When Archie heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little funny. After thinking about it, he said, "Sir, it's very late, and this slave has already gone to bed."

"It's okay, it's okay." Zhong Jinwei answered quickly, "Let's just lie down and chat. This time is where we are. This is when the night life is rich. If I hadn't traveled through time, I would be here at this time."

At this point, he paused. He originally planned to work overtime tonight. He is a bitch. This is boring and cannot be said. So he continued: "I am playing on the computer right now."

Archie was very surprised and asked: "Computer?"er, a client that can be used to read news, play games, watch movies, etc."

Archi was even more dizzy after hearing what she heard. Nothing she heard was within the scope of her understanding. So Zhong Jinwei proudly started a new round of explanations.

The night was getting thicker and thicker, and Zhong Jinwei couldn't understand the sound of the clock. However, he didn't have to go to work tomorrow, no matter what time it was. Now, there was a beautiful sister over there listening to him talking about heaven and earth, life.

What a happy thing! Although Archie spoke less and listened more, he was attracted by the fresh content of Zhong Jinwei's words and was not as sleepy as before, listening attentively. As the chat progressed, time passed.

As time goes by, the strangeness between the two people slowly disappears.

Around midnight, Gaoyang County, Baoding, Hebei Province, was shrouded in pitch-black night, with only two lanterns at the city gate shining faintly, vaguely revealing the city gate from the darkness.

The weather in June was not very cold. Two soldiers on night watch on the city wall huddled up, hugging their spears, and slept soundly in the corner. Suddenly, an older soldier seemed to be surprised by something, and he rubbed his body.

He looked at the still dark sky and listened carefully. Suddenly, he reached out and pushed his sleeping companion next to him: "Wake up, wake up."

Soldier Yi was sleeping soundly, but he was pushed awake with no choice. He opened his eyes just a slit and saw that it was still dark, so he closed them again and muttered: "It's not daylight yet."

Soldier A was helpless and said to Soldier B's ear: "Listen, is there the sound of horse hooves?" Soldier B looked at Soldier A, as if he was not joking, and listened attentively. At this time, he no longer needed to listen carefully.

, the sound of horse hoofbeats was already very obvious. Both of them were wondering, who was rushing at night at this time? So, they stood up and stretched out their heads, trying to see clearly through the dim light.

The sound of horse hoofbeats finally reached the foot of the city tower. A man on horseback straightened up and said: "Hurry up and open the door to convey the urgent oracle."

The two soldiers looked at each other and sounded like they were from the palace, so they said: "Throw up the certificate and take a look."

Although the man on horseback was helpless, he knew that this procedure was unavoidable. So he threw up his badge and said: "After reading this, open the door quickly and don't waste time."

The two soldiers received the badges and looked under the light. They were shocked. Although there were basically no activities in Dongchang now, a man with an urgent oracle suddenly appeared. Could it be that something was about to happen?

It's a big deal. Hurry up and open the door.

As soon as the door opened like a horse, people on horseback crowded over on horseback. After taking their badges, they asked: "Where is Sun Chengzong's residence?"

Soldier Ding A quickly pointed out the direction to him and told him how to get there. The man on horseback clamped his horse and left directly. When the sound of horse hooves faded away, Soldier Ding A said to his companion: "I came all night, covered with sweat.

.I don’t know what big thing happened. Life is really not easy these days.”

Sun Chengzong, whose courtesy name was Zhisheng and whose name was Kaiyang, was from Gaoyang, Baoding, North Zhili Province (now part of Hebei Province). At this time, because of the defeat of Liuhe, he resigned from office and stayed at home. He was 67 years old. He went to bed very early and got up very early.

Today was the same. When I woke up, I heard someone making noise outside. I couldn't help but feel a little strange. So I called the maid and asked, "It's not light yet. What's the noise outside?"

The maid went out for a while and came back to report: "It seems that someone from Dongchang came to deliver the holy edict. The housekeeper didn't want to disturb the master, so he had a dispute with him."

Sun Chengzong's heart tightened and he thought, "There must be something important if you come here late at night. Could there be another major change in the court?" Although he was thinking this in his heart, he was not panicked. He had seen many big scenes, how could he be panicked. He stood up.

Go to the vestibule.

When the people outside saw the real master appearing, they all stopped making noise. Sun Chengzong knew that the butler was because he was old, so he didn't want others to disturb his sleep, and he had good intentions. However, in front of outsiders, he pretended to say a few words about the butler.

Someone from Dongchang interrupted at the side and said, "Master Sun, please step aside, there is an oracle asking questions."

Sun Chengzong was stunned. He ran over from Beijing City in the middle of the night just to ask a few questions. So everyone avoided him.

People from Dongchang said: "Holy decree, Yuan Chonghuan committed a crime below Liaodong and beheaded a superior official privately. Is this possible?"

Sun Chengzong was stunned. After so many years, the Holy Emperor suddenly asked. He had obviously heard something. At this time, he probably couldn't hide it anymore. He could only say: "It is true."

The people from Dongchang said: "Master Sun, after asking, please send a servant to report the matter to the capital immediately. There are people from Dongchang waiting at the gate of the city day and night, and the Zajia family's waistband is the proof." After that,

He collapsed. When Sun Chengzong saw it, he quickly called his family to come over and Fudongchang's people went down to rest. He also sent his cronies to get up overnight and rush to the capital. After the arrangements were completed, Sun Chengzong sat in the lobby, looking at the flickering candlelight, and felt secretly in his heart.

Said: "Element, could it be that you got into trouble again?"
