Chapter 47 Who is the master of life and death
Chapter 47 �
Zhou Mengchen walked into the Western Garden and looked at the familiar building in front of him. It was Yingtian Pavilion he presided over. How many years have passed. Time has added some traces to this building, giving him a sense of vicissitudes, and it seems to be more beautiful than before.
There is a kind of ancient and clumsy beauty.
The whole building is like an antique.
Zhou Mengchen's eyes swept over the guards around him. The seemingly great Han general seemed to be a sculpture in the dark, but Zhou Mengchen felt a different feeling.
It's very simple, the difference between having been on the battlefield and not having killed the battlefield.
As mentioned earlier, the security of the palace was managed by the emperor's personal guards. This is also the most unlikely garrison in the world. These guards were the main force led by Emperor Chengzu and made great contributions to the battlefield.
But under the erosion of time, it has become a model soldier and a security officer.
However, Jiajing may be stingy in other aspects, but he treats the palace guards well. In addition, these soldiers are inherited by father and son. If you count the generations, you may be a very outstanding general in a certain battle. The combat effectiveness cannot be guaranteed, but loyalty can be guaranteed.
But these people have definitely never been on the battlefield or killed anyone.
For some people, it is impossible to feel that they have never been to the battlefield. But Zhou Mengchen has been through several times in the smoke of gunpowder. I dare not say that he is really the number one general in the world. But he can still see it at a glance if he has never been to the battlefield.
These plans are not ordinary generals of the Han Dynasty.
Before Zhou Mengchen came, he was not sure whether Jiajing was preparing for this showdown. But Zhou Mengchen had already determined eight points at this moment. He thought to himself: "There is indeed a dragon's and tiger's den."
Zhou Mengchen entered Yingtian Pavilion. The quiet room of that year had been modified. The Bagua Platform, which was originally in the middle, had been removed at some point, making the space much wider.
Jiajing was in the wheelchair, Huang Jin pushed Zhou Mengchen in from behind,
Jiajing waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite. I have been old ministers for many years, and I still need to be polite to me."
Zhou Mengchen still said respectfully: "Thank you Your Majesty."
Jiajing said: "There is no place for this guest star on this celestial ball. Zhou Qing, you are a big expert, please adjust it for me."
Zhou Mengchen said, "Your Majesty, I am old, and I can't remember the things about the young man. I am not familiar with many things in Yingtian Pavilion. The Imperial Heaven Prison has been revised many times. It's not that I don't want it, but that I really can't do it for a while. Why don't I let the Imperial Heaven Prison do it? My disciple Yang Wuliang is the Imperial Heaven Prison supervisor. It will definitely be done."
Zhou Mengchen was not really not good at it. Nonsense, the structural principle of Yingtian Pavilion is a big clock, and Zhou Mengchen made it himself. Even after so many years, Zhou Mengchen only had to glance at him and knew what to do. And he remembered that he also left a lot of room for activities in Yingtian Pavilion.
Zhou Mengchen really wanted to do it and was done soon.
It’s like many years later, you may have forgotten how to solve the problem of the college entrance examination, but you will never forget the knowledge points of elementary school.
Zhou Mengchen said this, but in fact he had something to say. He showed weakness to Jiajing. In essence, he did not want to have a conflict with Jiajing. Isn’t it good for Jiajing to let him retire peacefully? He went to be his retired old man and left the court affairs to Zhang Juzheng.
Everything has been solved.
But Zhou Mengchen was very sad to pass the Jiajing level. It was nothing else. Look at how many people in history have left someone when they died. In the future, cholera will be the world.
Zhou Mengchen retreated and could rise again, but only someone could not be resurrected.
Moreover, Zhou Mengchen himself really wanted to retire. Although he was unwilling to give up his power in this way, he could sacrifice for his reform. But in Jiajing's view, he was only about fifty years old and said that he had retired and had a great plan.
Jiajing could naturally hear what Zhou Mengchen meant, but it was not enough to let Jiajing let him go and return the tiger to the mountain, causing disasters for several lifetimes.
Jiajing said, "Forget it, since it's so troublesome, let's go outside and have a look."
Huang Jin immediately said, "Yes."
Open the small door outside Yingtian Pavilion. Huang Jin pushed Jiajing and walked step by step on the top of Yingtian Pavilion.
It doesn't mean it's top, there is a semicircular celestial sphere behind it. There is only flat ground on both sides.
And at the end of the flat ground, there is an astronomical telescope.
The most exquisite glass processing in the whole world is the workshop managed by Feng Bao. Zhou Mengchen glanced at the telescope and saw the word "inner creation".
Under the guidance of Zhou Mengchen, Jiajing used an astronomical telescope to see the guest star. It seemed that because the guest star was too bright, nothing seemed to appear. It was no different from ordinary stars.
Jiajing said, "I remember, have you told me about this kind of guest star?"
Zhou Mengchen said: "Yes. A star suddenly lit up in the sky. Generally, it is necessary to distinguish whether this star is inside the solar system or outside the solar system. If it is inside the solar system, it is likely to be a comet or a larger asteroid. And outside the solar system, it is the last brilliance of a star."
Zhou Mengchen's efforts decades ago have now achieved results. How many people do not need Zhou Mengchen to explain such knowledge points as galaxies, stars, planets, and asteroids. After all, Zhou Mengchen and Zhou Mengchen's disciples have explained it many times.
Under the guidance of Zhou Mengchen, the Imperial Heavenly Prison has been continuously deepening its research on astronomy. If Zhou Mengchen had just arrived, he opposed the response of heaven and man and still encountered resistance, but decades later, a lot of astronomy knowledge has become common sense for many people.
However, superstitious factors such as the response of heaven and man, or astrology, cannot be completely eradicated. It is like a new world, and many people still believe in Feng Shui.
Even based on Zhou Mengchen's new astronomy knowledge, a new astrological model has been developed, which makes Zhou Mengchen amazed.
Jiajing said, "I am old and can't remember clearly. Can you tell me?"
Zhou Mengchen naturally would not refuse. These things were naturally something that Zhou Mengchen could pick up casually. So Zhou Mengchen popularized the stars with the collapse of stars at different times and the birth of supernova to Jiajing.
Of course, many things are not confirmed. Therefore, Zhou Mengchen can only discuss them based on hypothesis.
Instead, let Jiajing pass through, the astronomical telescope sees several more obvious nebulaes, which are explained as the remaining matter of supernova explosions.
Jiajing said: "Do you think this star that suddenly shines is as big as the sun?"
Zhou Mengchen pondered for a moment and said, "I have too little data in my hand now, so I can only talk about it in general. However, it should be even larger than the sun."
Jiajing said: "How many years does the sun have?"
Zhou Mengchen said: "Your Majesty, I don't know, but I think that the lifespan of the sun should be calculated in billions of years. So there is no need to do whatever the sun explodes, it has nothing to do with our generation."
Jiajing sighed: "A small knowledge is not as good as great knowledge, and the small year is not as good as the big year. Why do you know it? The morning mushrooms do not know the new moon, and the cicadas do not know the spring and autumn. This is the small year. There is a dark spirit in the south of Chu, which is considered five hundred years as spring and five hundred years as autumn; in ancient times, there was a big toon, which was considered eight thousand years as spring, and eight thousand years as autumn. But Peng Zu has heard of it for a long time, and everyone is meeting it. Isn't it sad!"
Zhou Mengchen heard a deep feeling of sadness from this section of Zhuangzi. This is Jiajing's true feelings, and he has been in the unit for hundreds of millions of years. Not to mention that Peng Zu was eight hundred years old, even eight thousand years old, he was just a blink of an eye.
Jiajing has been pursuing immortality for half his life, but he may not be able to survive even at the age of eighty.
If he is confident that he will live to the age of 80, he will be able to wait until his grandson grows up. There are many things he doesn't have to do or worry about.
Unfortunately, God did not give Jiajing this choice.
In terms of weighing the pros and cons, Jiajing actually knew that killing Zhou Mengchen would ruin his reputation and leave a big problem for the world. He didn't want to do so unless he had no choice.
But for several months, Yama urged his life.
In Jiajing's opinion, he didn't have the choice.
Jiajing said, "Zhou Qing, I am old and I have only been in a state of stagnation for half a year. Do you know?"
