In a secret room separated by a wall.
After hearing Su Bai's story about the firm connection between the fate of the country and the God, Zhu Yuanzhang felt like he was struck by lightning.
According to Su Bai's deduction, Ming would repeat the mistakes of the Song Dynasty and lose all the land left by their ancestors.
As the saying went.
Heaven follows people's wishes, and the country's fortune is prosperous.
Heaven is not good, the country's fate is slow.
Da Ming had not received the favor of the heavens from the beginning!
Zhu Yuanzhang clenched his fists in anger. His nails had already dug into his flesh, but he did not feel the pain.
Suddenly, he raised his head and looked at Zhu Biao, who was flabbergasted, and said in a panic,"
"Boss, you've read a lot. Do you remember the weather at the end of the dynasty?”
"Is it like what Mister Su said, that they all died from the extreme cold?”
"Ah?" Zhu Biao was dumbstruck.
He had read quite a few history books, but the documents recorded were all about the 'dry goods' of the various dynasties. They did not involve topics related to the weather.
To understand the weather at that time, one had to consult the county records that were kept in various places. It was a very large project.
"Forgive your son's lack of talent and knowledge, I dare not speak nonsense."
Zhu Biao reorganized his words, then bowed and said carefully,
"However, the decline of the Song Dynasty is inseparable from the change in the weather.”
"During the Jingkang period, Kaifeng had a heavy snowfall of three feet. Even the orange trees in Fujian froze to death. The frequent extreme weather caused the people to complain endlessly.”
"At the same time, Jin and Meng, in order to plunder the vitality of the south, their combat strength can only be described as terrifying."
Zhu Yuanzhang fell back into his chair and shook his head.
He couldn't believe that the empire he had fought for with his head held high actually didn't receive any blessing from the fate of the country?!
This didn't make sense!
These ten thousand miles of beautiful rivers and mountains were originally the heritage left behind by the ancestors of the Han people. What was wrong with him expelling the Tartars and restoring China?!
If he had known earlier, he would have brought Liu Bowen here!
Liu Bowen was proficient in astronomy, geography, and the Eight Trigrams. He was regarded as a god-like existence among the people.
Even if this Su Bai was a little weird, he could never be compared to Liu Bowen!
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's frown, Zhu Biao immediately guessed his father's thoughts and quickly took the initiative to ask,
"Imperial Father, your son will go and invite Mister Liu now!”
"There's no need. It's too late for you to look for Liu Ji now. Write everything down first and we'll look for him alone later.”
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and stopped Zhu Biao.
"Then what about this Mr. Smith? And Fourth Brother?" Zhu Biao probed carefully.
Zhu Yuanzhang pinched the space between his eyebrows and said in a deep voice,"
"Don't worry about it for now. Su Bai is going to die anyway. It doesn't matter whether it's sooner or later. Let's hear what else he has up his sleeves.”
"Yes, Imperial Father." Zhu Biao returned to the table and sat down. He picked up the brush and held it straight, waiting for the next person to speak.
On the other side.
Zhu Di was extremely shocked.
The sacrifice was useless, and the heavens did not give him face.
Didn't that mean…
Big Ming was hopeless?
"Mr. Su, don't scare me. I've been timid since I was young. Is Big Ming really unable to escape this calamity?”
Su Bai looked at him with disdain and had nowhere to complain.
You even dared to go against Zhu Yuanzhang.
How dare you call yourself timid?
"Throughout the thousand years of Chinese civilization, there have been four cold periods and four warm periods.”
Su Bai explained in disdain:
"In the cold period, the country is destroyed and the people are in misery. During the warm period, the country was strong and expanded its territory. The Western Zhou Dynasty was destroyed by the Quan Rong, and it was in the first cold period. As luck would have it, the Great Ming Dynasty was in the fourth cold period.”
"Yes, you can't hide anymore. However, you don't have to find trouble for yourself. At least Big Ming will be fine for a hundred years. When Big Ming can't do it, you will already be dead.”
An ordinary person might laugh at Su Bai's words and would not take it to heart.
However, Zhu Di was the prince of the Ming Dynasty. Even if he did not have the chance to get his hands on the throne, he was unwilling to let the Zhu family's territory change hands.
A hundred years later, he would kick off his legs and close his eyes. His entire body would be relaxed. Wasn't it the common people who suffered, as well as the descendants of the Zhu family?!
"Mr. Su, you're wrong."
Zhu Di's brows were filled with heroic spirit as he said in a clear voice,
"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. I was born into a family of generals, so how can I watch Ming Dynasty decline?”
"Please teach me, Mr. Su!"
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, who were in the secret room next door, couldn't help but nod their heads.
The two of them had to admit that Zhu Di was usually a little mischievous, but when it came to national affairs, he was still able to be clear and did not forget his identity.
Su Bai had tamed the fiercest horse of the Zhu family in just over a month.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it!
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly." Listen to him. He's a typical troublemaker. We've said all kinds of good things, but he just won't listen. He turned around and treated an outsider with courtesy.”
"We still went easy on him!"
"Rolling knife meat!"
Zhu Biao smiled but didn't say anything. He thought to himself, Dad, you're jealous?
At the same time, Zhu Biao also recorded down the four cold periods and four warm periods that Su Bai mentioned. He would verify them after he returned to the palace.
Back to the other side.
After listening to Zhu Di's impassioned words, Su Bai couldn't help but shake his head and smile. He patted the young man's shoulder.
"Of course, there is a way, but there is no way to implement it. Don't waste your time.”
Upon hearing this, Zhu Di jumped down from the stone bench excitedly.
He was not afraid of difficulties, but he was afraid that there was no solution!
His father was the current emperor. What method could not be implemented?
"Mr. Smith, aren't you underestimating us?”
Zhu Di patted his chest and said confidently,"
"Mr. Su, you can speak boldly. Although His Majesty doesn't like me, my father can still talk to His Majesty.”
"Moreover, how could a wise person like His Majesty not listen to advice?”
"As long as it is beneficial to Big Ming, even if we have to risk our lives, it is not a problem!”
Zhu Di cupped his hands in the air and began to imagine the scene of his father praising him.
Ever since he was young, he had always been scolded. No matter what he did, it was always wrong. This time, he had to teach everyone a lesson.
Su Bai rested his chin on one hand and stared at Zhu Di for a long time. After a moment of silence, he smiled:
"There's something in your eyes that no one else has.”
"What? What the hell is this?!"
Zhu Di dashed back in two steps and swallowed his saliva in anticipation.
"Clear stupidity!" Su Bai said.
Zhu Di: "???"
"Don't be so naive."
Su Bai slowly got up and stretched.
"I've talked a lot today. You can't bite off more than you can chew. I'll leave this question for you to do your homework. I'll ask you again tomorrow in class.”
Su Bai tapped his temple and said earnestly: "Use your brain more and think about it. Don't only know how to fight and kill all day.”
"Let's go. Don't send me off."
"Oh!"
Zhu Di's face was full of disappointment, but he still bowed respectfully and watched Su Bai's back as he walked away:
"What else can we do to resist the natural disaster without relying on sacrifices?？”
"How would I know?"
"What kind of bird am I?”
On the other side.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was in the secret chamber, was shocked.
