Red Mansion Jia Lan: Do you want to run away tonight to visit your relatives? Chapter 161: At the end of the year and in the cold weather, try to talk about the celestial phenomena
Chapter 161: At the end of the year and in the cold weather, try to talk about the celestial phenomena
In Jialan’s room.
After eating Eleven Niang's supper, Jia Lan and the other two continued chatting. Qingwen yawned, and with a sleepy look on her face, she stood by stubbornly, unwilling to rest.
According to her, if you want to sleep, you can sleep in the carriage during the day, otherwise if you let her sit in it all day, you will be suffocated.
Qin Zhong remembered how Jia Lan remained silent when he and Liang Yong were talking about the residence report, so he asked again.
Liang Yong also remembered this when he heard this, and looked at Jia Lan curiously: "Brother Lan, what do you think of the imperial newspaper?"
Facing the inquiring gazes of the two men, Jia Lan pondered for a while and then asked a different question that no one expected: "Don't you think it has become colder in recent years?"
Qin Zhong and Qin Wen were startled when they heard this.
After a while, Qingwen couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile: "Master, what you said is too outrageous, isn't it? The job of a newspaper reporter in this government is not the job of a dawn announcer."
Liang Yong, on the other hand, frowned and fell into deep thought.
"If you say so..."
As a person who has lived in Guangnan for a long time, he has the deepest experience of climate change: "I remember reading the history books of my hometown. During the Zhengde period of the former Ming Dynasty, it rained and snowed thousands of miles around Qiongzhou Prefecture. Earlier, I thought these records were too exaggerated... p>
Until last winter, a friend from Hanshan sent me a letter, mentioning that the temperature was extremely cold and the snow was several feet thick in winter.
From what we can see in Guangnan alone, as Langeer said, the weather seems to be getting colder and colder!"
Qin Zhong knew that Jia Lan was never an innocent person. Hearing what Liang Yong said, he seemed to have thought of something. His face changed slightly and he said in a deep voice: "Brother Lan, in the late Ming Dynasty, the celestial phenomena were also so weird. Do you think that in the past?"
If the phenomenon changes the day after tomorrow, will it become exactly the same as before?"
Jia Lan was silent for a moment and nodded slightly.
Liang Yong's expression suddenly changed and he stood up in shock.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, natural disasters continued, thousands of people died of hunger, heroes rose up one after another, and the emperor committed suicide in Meishan.
"How could it be like this! Langeer, this is the end of the world! This dynasty has only been established for less than a hundred years...and the kings of several generations have not committed any serious misconduct, how can it be like this!"
Liang Yong paused: "Could it be that the way of heaven is so cruel and wants to make the people of China suffer another catastrophe?! Fall into the hands of aliens again?"
Seeing that Jia Lan was silent, Liang Yonghong walked around the room with eyes open and opened the window.
The night outside was filled with snow and clouds, but there was no Gui soul.
Furious, he took a deep breath and let the cold air penetrate his chest, trying to calm down a little.
Looking at the hazy sky outside the window, Liang Yong's eyes were firm, he clenched his fists tightly, and said to the sky in a suppressed voice: "Even if the world is cold, my blood is still cold. If the way of heaven is like this, I, Liang Yong, swear to fight against it!"<
/p>
"The way of heaven...resist...?"
Infected by Liang Yong's words, Jia Lan's expression changed obviously.
In Liang Yong, Jia Lan seemed to see the spiritual core of generations of Guangnan people in the following hundreds of years.
Although some people vilify them and say that they are similar to Tianzhu people.
Although their experiences are similar, their thoughts are completely different.
They will always have the mission passed down from the First Emperor and the feelings of family and country taught by Mr. Han Shan Dongpo.
Different from the alienated mentality of Tianzhu people who want their country to perish forever, they open their eyes to the world and sacrifice their lives in order to save the nation.
Maybe you can question them in this or that way, but it is difficult to deny their loyalty, their unswerving loyalty to Yanhuang Zhengshuo.
The world only knows about Yangzhou in the Tenth Day, but they don’t know that the people of Guangnan rose up several times to fight against Geng, became the second vassal, and joined Li Dingguo’s Nanming army. More than a million people were slaughtered?
If the people of Guangnan are like this, why not the tens of millions of people in China?
Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the green mountains. In times of national calamity, the strongest traits of the dragonborn will be revealed.
No wonder later generations of saints wrote in their own handwriting: "...Since then, in order to oppose internal and external enemies, strive for national independence and people's freedom and happiness, the people's heroes who have sacrificed in previous struggles will be immortal!"
Therefore, Jia Lan was in awe when he saw Liang Yong being so angry.
Jia Lan stood up, walked beside Liang Yong and patted him on the shoulder.
"Brother Zhuo Ru, the way of heaven is not just for the people of our country, but for all living beings in the world, the way of heaven is still the way of heaven, and things are not exactly as you thought just now."
Jia Lan's determined look and erotic tone gradually calmed Liang Yong down, while at the same time arousing his curiosity.
Not only him, but also Qin Zhong and Qingwen next to him, everyone was shocked and showed surprised expressions.
Lange'er actually wants to talk to me about the way of heaven?
What a magical thing!
"Do you still remember what we heard from those Hu merchants from Southeast Asia at our hotel in Guangnan?"
Seeing that several people didn't respond, Jialan simply continued directly: "Didn't those maritime traders say they saw volcanic eruptions that lasted for several months while sailing in the South China Sea..."
Jialan used the most popular language possible to explain the impact of volcanic ash on temperature to several people. After listening to the three people, the expressions on their faces were extremely wonderful, as if they had opened up a new world.
"Is that really the case?" Liang Yong frowned, her tone unsure.
"I think Lange'er is right!"
Qingwen's decisive tone made everyone turn their attention.
Qiao Qingwen's red lips moved slightly, and her tone was very sure: "The sky is dark, and without sunlight it will naturally get colder. Not only the old farmers in the fields, but we servants also have to pay attention to the sky all the time. Whenever we see the sky is wrong,
I have to collect clothes and socks for the master. So it’s cloudy for days, so it’s naturally colder. I think the master is right!”
After listening to Qingwen's examples from life, Liang Yong had no choice but to nod.
At this time, Qin Zhong asked again: "Brother Kelan, how do you know that this celestial phenomenon is not just for our country?"
Jialan smiled and held out two fingers: "It's very simple. No matter what it is, there are precise records showing the impact of changes in celestial phenomena.
First, from the maritime trade station that crossed the sea to the east of Japan, I heard that there was also in the midst of a famine that had not happened for decades. It was said that a volcanic eruption occurred in the Daxue Mountains next to the capital to the east, and the volcanic ash covered the country.
The sky blocks out the sun for several days.
Secondly, have you forgotten how the two gentlemen sailing south at this time came from?"
Qin Zhong suddenly said: "You mean Mr. He and Mr. Luo?"
Jia Lan nodded: "They are authentic Westerners, and the things they talked about are all their own experiences. The land of Xiyi is also snowy and windy like the Central Plains. The river is frozen, and the snow is up to the knees at noon.
Their army was defeated in such brutal cold weather, and the two of them were captured and sold to the south."
If Qingwen's words still make them doubtful, then the two examples Jia Lan gave are quite convincing.
