Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 1088 King Xiang enters the palace
In the Wenhua Palace, Wang Ao and Yu Shiyue felt their scalps tingle when they saw the emperor's increasingly gloomy face.

They didn't expect Yu Qian to be so courageous. The emperor was so angry about the incident outside the palace gate that he ordered him to be confined in the mansion.

As a result, not only did he not admit his mistake, but he went too far. When they saw this memorial, the two of them were afraid to hand it over.

But the problem is, Yu Qian sent someone to the Secretary of General Administration first, and then sent it to the cabinet. He made it clear that he didn't intend to hide it. By the time they saw it, many people knew about it.

In this case, let alone not to hand it up, even if it is half a day late, when the emperor knows the news from other people, then the cabinet will be the one who will be punished.

Therefore, even though they knew it would make the emperor angry, the two of them still had to enter the palace immediately. As expected, the more the emperor read this memorial, the more ugly his face became.

In the oppressive atmosphere, there was a sudden 'bang', the two looked around, only to see the Son of Heaven slapping the table heavily, stood up angrily, and said.

"Old man! Arrogant! Presumptuous!"

"Come on, go, bring me this old man, Yu Qian, immediately!"

"I'd like to see, where does he have the courage to say that I act arbitrarily and trust eunuchs, so what is the way to be a blind king, what is the way to be a king, do I want him to be taught by a minister of the Ministry of War?"

"I just don't know how to live or die!"

Although they had predicted that the emperor would be furious, they were still frightened when they saw the furious emperor in front of them.

This time it's a big game...

You know, in the past, when the emperor was angry again, he would never yell at him like this. It can be seen how much Yu Qian wrote this time.

The two who had already made preparations immediately fell to their knees and said repeatedly.

"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

At the same time, the two cabinet ministers couldn't help but feel a little anxious. One of Yu Qian's intentions in writing this memorial was to anger the emperor so that he could get rid of the confinement and meet the emperor.

However, under such circumstances, if he really got to see the emperor, he might be even more confronted with the point of the needle, and by then, something big might really happen.

Therefore, the top priority is how to stop the emperor. However, seeing the emperor's furious expression, the two of them wanted to persuade them for a while, but they didn't know where to start.

Just when they were thinking of a way, Wynn at the side had already taken the order and planned to send someone to bring Yu Qian over.

However, at this moment, the servant on the side suddenly cried out.

"His Majesty!"

Almost at the same time, Wynn, who had just stepped forward, also reacted, and immediately turned back to support the crumbling emperor.

Wang Ao and Wang Ao looked up, but saw the emperor trembling all over, he was so angry that he couldn't even stand still.

Seeing this situation, Yu Shiyue said anxiously.

"Your Majesty, take care of the dragon's body, don't let yourself get angry because of such a trivial matter..."

In the current situation, the two of them didn't care about anything else, and Wang Ao followed suit.

"Your Majesty has learned from you that there are so many ministers in the court, and it is inevitable that there will be occasions when your words are inappropriate. Although Yu Shaobao's memorandum is a bit radical, he does not intend to offend. Please don't get angry and take care of yourself, Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, Yu Shiyue frowned immediately, and subconsciously looked at Wang Ao who was beside him, but the other party didn't cast his eyes on him.

In this case, he didn't care about anything, so he had to say.

"Your Majesty's health is important, so it's better to pass it on to the imperial physician first. Your Majesty's dragon body is healthy and healthy, which is the foundation of the court's smoothness."

I don't know if this persuasion has worked. The emperor, who was supported by Wynn to sit down, slowly recovered after a long time. He gently pushed Wynn away, supported the table with one hand, and reluctantly He sat up straight, but his eyes fell on the memorial in front of him, and said.

"I'm fine, you two gentlemen don't have to worry, please get up."

Seeing this, the emperor's mood calmed down, but he couldn't hide his disappointment no matter what.

Seeing this situation, Wynn stood aside, hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice.

"Then Yu Shaobao..."

"No need to go, I don't want to see him."

The emperor waved his hand feebly and said.

"Pass the decree, order Yu Qian to suspend his post in the government, meditate on his own mistakes, and not leave without authorization."

"Yes……"

Wynn hastily sent people to preach the decree, but he himself did not leave. Obviously, he was still worried about the emperor's health.

Yu Shiyue knelt on the ground, seeing the disheartened look of the emperor, he couldn't help but sighed in his heart.

Yu Tingyi, Yu Tingyi, you really made a big fuss this time.

In the past, although Yu Qian was imprisoned in the mansion, it was obvious that the emperor at that time had a sense of anger and did not really intend to punish him.

Otherwise, he would not let go later and let other ministers go in to persuade him.

However, as soon as Yu Qian's melody is published, it can be said that most of Yu Shiyue's previous efforts have been in vain.

The emperor looks calm now, but this kind of calm is actually the most terrifying.

It seems to be the same confinement in the government, but this time the emperor added the word suspension, which shows that this is no longer a temporary measure, but a real one, with the intention of giving up on Yu Qian...

Yu Shiyue could already foresee that if Yu Qian continued to die like this, then no matter how much credit he had, he might not be able to protect himself.

Looking up at the Son of Heaven again, it seemed that these two short sentences exhausted all his energy. The Son of Heaven was propping up the table, closing his eyes and thinking about something, and the Wenhua Palace fell into silence.

The two ministers just stood there, not daring to say anything to break the silence, until a moment later, a heavy sigh sounded, and the emperor spoke.

"Two gentlemen, tell me, did I really do something wrong?"

The question was endless, and they didn't know whether they were talking about Yu Qian or about Huangzhuang. Therefore, both of them were very cautious and hesitated for a moment, Wang Ao said.

"Your Majesty, it is normal to have conflicts in government affairs. As long as you discuss well, you will naturally reach an agreement. The more angry you are, the more difficult it is to solve the problem. Therefore, I think that it is impossible to say whether it is right or wrong. Your Majesty and the court will The ministers are all for the country's sake, but Yu Shaobao's actions are indeed a bit reckless, as a minister, it is a mistake to offend His Majesty like this."

Since it is not clear what the question is, then there are two options, one is to be vague and say neither, and the other is to say both.

Apparently, Wang Ao chose the latter, Yu Shiyue frowned slightly, then glanced at Wang Ao lightly, and followed suit.

"Your Majesty, what Lord Shoufu said is reasonable. The affairs of the court are complicated. Your Majesty has his majesty's considerations, and the ministers have their own thoughts. Since they are all thinking of the country, why bother to argue? Your majesty has issued a decree to reprimand you That’s right, don’t let your anger break your body.”

Zhu Qiyu raised his head and glanced at the two people. One said that he was not sincere, and the other said that he issued an order and reprimanded them. They seemed to be persuading them, but in fact, they both had their own thoughts.

Sighing, he didn't answer Yu Shiyue's words, but said to Wang Ao.

"Mr. Wang, you come to comment on this reason for me. Since I became the throne, which matter has not put the people of the country first. Then Yu Qian, don't I have enough trust in him?"

"But no matter how he treats me, it's nothing more than contradicting me repeatedly. Now, under the banner of admonishing him, he has scolded me right on the nose. If he is so presumptuous, can I forgive him again?"

The two ministers present were extremely smart, and seeing the emperor's appearance, they knew that the emperor's anger had not dissipated.

However, there are some things that have to be measured even if they are pushed along with the current, so Wang Ao pondered for a while before saying.

"Your Majesty, I think that Yu Shaobao didn't intend to contradict you. However, regarding the Huangzhuang matter, His Majesty issued an order to the six ministries without court discussion. Yu Shaobao felt that it was inappropriate, so he insisted on seeing him. It's getting bigger and bigger, but the root cause is nothing more than trivial things."

"What's more, Yu Shaobao is well-known in the court, and he has made many contributions to the court and society. If you say that he has a straightforward temper and acted improperly for a while, I believe it, but if you say that he deliberately contradicts His Majesty under the banner of persuasion , I'm afraid His Majesty has misunderstood."

Yu Shiyue's face became more and more ugly, but in this situation, he had to try his best to hide his emotions, and followed suit.

"Your Majesty, I also feel that this matter is actually just a dispute between the monarch and his ministers. It is not a big deal. Yu Shaobao has a straightforward personality. He has always said what he said. In front of His Majesty, he never pretends to be hypocritical Flattery, this is because, from the bottom of his heart, he feels that what His Majesty needs are loyal words from loyal ministers, not flattery."

"It's more because Yu Shaobao knew that His Majesty is a wise king who is open-minded and good at accepting advice. That's why he dared to do this. I remember that Da Zongbo also said to His Majesty before that Wei Zheng often admonishes ministers through the ages. But Tang Zong only had one person, and Yu Shaobao served His Majesty with the heart of Wei Zheng serving Tang Zong, so he was always outspoken."

"Although it is true that sometimes his words are inappropriate and offend His Majesty, but he must be open-minded and absolutely selfless in his heart. Please let Your Majesty learn from you."

After these words, the emperor's face softened a little, but he still didn't comment on Yu Shiyue's words, which made Yu Shiyue's heart tighten.

Seeing this situation, Wang Ao spoke again.

"Your Majesty, although Yu Shaobao has done it before, he is the Secretary of the Ministry of War after all. I feel that it is not an option to keep him in the mansion for a long time. It is better to release him and continue to preside over the Ministry of War, but cut his salary as a punishment. , is more appropriate."

It's okay if you don't say this, but the emperor's face immediately darkened again when he said this. Seeing that something was wrong, Yu Shiyue was about to make amends, but saw the servant on the side step forward to report a few words, and then, Huai En turned back to the imperial court, opened the mouth.

"Your Majesty, Prince Xiang is seeking an audience outside."

As soon as this name came out, not only Yu Shiyue and the other two, but even the emperor frowned.

It should be said that because of Yu Qian's memorandum, the emperor was already very irritable at the moment. It was the time when he didn't want to see the ministers, and the clan was no exception. Therefore, there was inevitably a bit of impatience in his tone, he said.

"Uncle Xiang, what's the matter?"

"I'm currently dealing with government affairs with the two gentlemen of the cabinet. If it's important, let him discuss it with Uncle Min Wang. If it doesn't work, just draft a memorial and submit it."

The meaning of chasing guests was so strong that Yu Shiyue and the two who were in the palace were also a little uncomfortable.

Obviously, the emperor doesn't want to see anyone now, and the two of them are just a cover. Just when Yu Shiyue was thinking about whether to leave quickly, Wynn said hesitantly.

"Return to Your Majesty, Prince Xiang said... this matter is related to Yu Shaobao!"

"Yu Qian?"

As soon as the name came out, the emperor's face suddenly became much uglier, and then his eyes turned to Yu Shiyue and the two, and said.

"I, the Minister of the Ministry of War, has a lot of face. After being confined in the mansion, I can still work for the prince of the clan to intercede. It's really very good!"

Obviously, since most of the courtiers who met during this period were interceding for Yu Qian, the emperor felt that King Xiang had the same intention when he came here.

However, Yu Shiyue subconsciously felt something was wrong. You must know that this Prince Xiang had never had any friendship with Yu Qian. If there were any, they were all unpleasant memories.

Moreover, some time ago, Yu Qian presided over the rectification of the army, and the most offended were these vassal kings. Although they said they had come to the door to apologize, the festival did not pass.

So in all likelihood, this King Xiang is probably here to make things worse...

He deliberately opened his mouth to explain a few words, but before he opened his mouth, the emperor snorted and said directly.

"Xuan, I want to see how capable Yu Qian is."

"Yes……"

Huai En responded, and sent two servants down to bring King Xiang in, while Yu Shiyue and Wang Ao stood there tacitly, without any movement.

Logically speaking, when the emperor summoned his clan relatives, the ministers of the court should avoid them, but since King Xiang came here for Yu Qian, then he might not be innocent.

Therefore, even though it was a bit unruly, the emperor didn't say anything to drive them away, so the two boldly stayed.

Not long after, King Xiang, who was dressed in a light blue royal robe embroidered with golden python patterns, entered the hall, and after offering a seat, the emperor said.

"Uncle Xiang came here suddenly, but do you have something important to tell me?"

Yu Shiyue and the two stood by, although they lowered their heads, they couldn't help sighing in their hearts that the emperor was still very calm after all.

He was so angry just now, but at this moment in front of King Xiang, he didn't see the emotion just now.

At the same time, King Xiang glanced at the cabinet duo next to him, wondering why there would be ministers by his side when the clan met.

However, since they have all come, it is impossible to go back, so, after a moment of pondering, he opened his mouth and said.

"Returning to Your Majesty, I recently heard about something related to Yu Qian, Minister of the Ministry of War, and it also involved eunuchs in the palace. Although it is not a big deal, after much deliberation, I still feel that I should go to the palace and report to Your Majesty. "

As soon as these words came out, the emperor frowned and asked.

"Oh? Is it related to Yu Qian? Is it related to the palace?"

"But I don't know what it is, Uncle Labor Wang came to the palace to say it in person?"

So, King Xiang took out a letter from his sleeve, handed it up, and said.

"Returning to Your Majesty, this matter is not a big one, but it is related to the Song Wenyi incident that has caused a lot of turmoil in Beijing recently. Here are the details, Your Majesty please read it."
