Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 1099 It's Your Choice
Yu Shiyue's heart was churning, but time did not allow him to think too much.

Because, after the emperor asked Wang Ao for his opinion, he immediately turned to him.

"Cifu thinks that what Tianguan and Shoufu said makes sense?"

So, Yu Shiyue instantly felt that, including the emperor, three eyes fell on him at the same time.

Especially Wang Ao and Wang Wen, with their burning eyes, brought him tremendous pressure.

So, what to do?
From an objective point of view, Yu Shiyue should oppose their proposal at this moment. The Minister of the Ministry of War is imprisoned and the two servants are transferred away. The impact on the Ministry of War is too great.

And, more importantly, just after Yu Qian was imprisoned, the two servants of the Ministry of War were transferred away. This will inevitably send a signal to the court, that is, Yu Qian has lost his favor, and what comes from this must be one after another. To the impeachment.

Although he didn't think that such a small case could do anything to Yu Qian, but still that sentence, nothing is impossible in court.

Different from Yu Qian, Yu Shiyue has always been very clear in her heart, that is, everything in the entire imperial court is in the hands of the emperor.

This is also the place where he has always had a hard time agreeing with Yu Qian. Yu Qian always wanted to change the emperor. In Yu Shiyue's view, he was jumping back and forth on the verge of courting death.

The emperor is the father of the people and the ruler of the world. As a subject, he can certainly put forward his own opinions to the emperor, but the final decision-making power is always in the hands of the emperor.

If you want the emperor to act according to his own ideas in everything, to be more serious, you are already suspected of committing the following crimes.

So now, it's his turn to make a choice...

Not to mention Wang Aoquan, you must know that before they came, Wang Wen was already in the palace.

With Wang Wen's character, even if he was afraid of modesty and wanted to suppress it, if the emperor disagreed, he would never propose to replace the two servants of the Ministry of War at this time, or at least, he must have reported it in advance. Yes, I have tested the meaning of the emperor.

Yu Shiyue did not see how Wang Wen and the Son of Heaven were right before he came here, so he had no way of guessing whether it was the emperor who instructed Wang Wen or whether Wang Wen was admonishing the emperor, but one thing is certain.

That is, since it has reached this point, the emperor's heart may have been determined.

This is also in line with the emperor's usual style. First discuss with a certain minister, and then call the cabinet and relevant ministers to unify their opinions. After everything is ready, go to the court for discussion.

In this way, even if there are disputes, it will be in a small area, above the court, and there will be no large-scale disputes. Moreover, in the ever-expanding range, the original mistakes and omissions will be constantly corrected.

In the past, a series of major events such as the mutual market, military settlements, and Daqu were basically done this way, and if there are no accidents this time, it should be the same.

After all, it is not a trivial matter to replace the two servants of the Ministry of War at once. If they are taken to the court rashly, it will easily cause uncontrollable influence.

So for Yu Shiyue, what he wants to choose now is not whether he opposes Wang Wen and Wang Ao, the combination of the Minister of the Ministry of officials and the chief assistant of the cabinet, but whether to veto it. At least the emperor has acquiesced in a proposal .

and……

"Mr. Yu?"

Perhaps it was because Yu Shiyue was hesitating all the time, and the emperor's face was a little ugly, so he called out in a low voice.

So, Yu Shiyue immediately came back to his senses, the matter was over, he knew that he could no longer hesitate, he let out a long breath, Yu Shiyue got up and saluted, and said.

"Your Majesty, I think it's wrong!"

Those two simple words immediately made the atmosphere in the hall tense.

Wang Wen and Wang Ao on the opposite side immediately frowned, and looked at Yu Shiyue with a little bit more unkindness.

On the contrary, Yu Shiyue himself, after saying this, seemed to let go of some burden, and faced the two people's gaze directly, without any intention of retreating, and cupped his hands.

"I know why the Lord Tianguan made this proposal. In order to rectify the army, Yu Shaobao promoted many officials in the Ministry of War. There have been material discussions in the court, thinking that Yu Shaobao is self-respecting, and the two servants of the Ministry of War are too young. In terms of all affairs in the Ministry of War, it is true that you can only act under the order of the Shaobao. In this regard, the Lord Tianguan wants to choose another minister who holds important positions as the Minister of the Ministry of War, and I have no objection."

"However, I feel that this moment is not a good time. Now that Yu Shaobao is in prison, the Ministry of War has tried its best to maintain it, and the military mansion is about to be rectified. If the two servants of the Ministry of War are transferred out of Beijing at this moment, even if the other ministers can be elected in time, it will be impossible It always takes time to get familiar with the affairs of the Ministry during the handover of affairs, so it will inevitably delay the government affairs of the court, this is one of them."

"Your Majesty is wise and wise. Since he ascended the throne, he has made great efforts to govern and innovate. In the past few years, the atmosphere in the court has become more and more positive, and there has been little criticism of each other. Now, although Yu Shaobao is in prison, the case has not yet been clarified. Officials have already heard the wind, caught wind and shadow, attacked and impeached, if His Majesty withdraws and replaces the military department at this time, it will be tantamount to fueling this trend, and if things go on like this, if the courtiers attack for no reason, it may be difficult to control it, this is the second."

"With these two, no matter what, it is difficult for the minister to agree with this proposal. Please think twice, Your Majesty."

After the voice fell, the hall suddenly fell silent.

Wang Wen and Wang Ao narrowed their eyes, but they didn't say anything tacitly, especially Wang Wen, whose expression was very calm, as if Yu Shiyue just called out his name.

You know, although Yu Shiyue said it tactfully, he still punctured the window paper, pointing out directly that Wang Wen wanted to replace the two ministers of the Ministry of War at this time, just to suppress the Ministry of War and suppress Yu Qian.

It can be said that when he said these words, he offended the two people present, and more importantly, it was very likely that he was also disobeying the emperor!
Sure enough, after hearing what he said, the emperor's expression also sank, looking at Yu Shiyue with a bit of sharpness piercing his heart, he said coldly.

"Cifu's words, are you interceding for Yu Qian?"

Although the words were questions, the tone was somewhat determined.

Before Yu Shiyue could answer, the Son of Heaven's expression suddenly became severe, said.

"I've always heard that Cifu and Yu Qian have a very close personal relationship, but I never thought that Mr. Yu also learned from him such a habit of liking to gossip, why, you two, do you think I'm weak and can be bullied? "

These words are so serious that even the word "criminal" is used, which shows how angry the emperor is at the moment.

Seeing this situation, Wang Wen and others on the side immediately stood up and cupped their hands.

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

However, Yu Shiyue, who was facing the strong pressure from the emperor, looked at the emperor who was looming angry, and although he was also terrified in his heart, he did not flinch.

Above the court, a very important principle is that before making a decision, you must think clearly and think about it in many ways. However, once you make a decision, you must not make it easy in the middle.

Of course Yu Shiyue understood this, so he knew very well that at this time, the more he couldn't be intimidated, otherwise, the crime the emperor just said would be confirmed.

Taking a deep breath, Yu Shiyue endured the cold sweat on his back and said.

"Your Majesty clearly learned that I and Yu Qian are indeed old friends, but I am even more of your Majesty's minister, and I will definitely not be indiscriminate between official and personal acquaintances."

"It is precisely because I am His Majesty's minister that I have to speak frankly to Your Majesty. The case of Yu Qian is right and wrong. Mr. Zhu has ordered to investigate and deal with it. I think there will be a conclusion in a few days."

"I just don't want Your Majesty's desire to rectify the court situation to be used by someone with a heart. Even if the case is verified and it is indeed Yu Qian's fault, it should be His Majesty's final disposal, rather than being instigated by the court affairs and making a judgment first."

"As for the transfer of the Minister of the Ministry of War, the minister is really considering the stability of the court and has absolutely no selfishness. I implore Your Majesty to learn from it."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Ao's face became more and more ugly, said.

"What does Master Zifu mean by this?"

"Could it be that your majesty, Sheng Ming, wise, made a decision not for the stability of the court?"

What Yu Shiyue said just now almost directly named him. How could Wang Ao bear it, and with a backhanded sentence, he pushed Yu Shiyue to the opposite side of the emperor.

In contrast, Yu Shiyue was very calm.

Just after he said those words, he was ready to tear his face apart with Wang Ao. Looking at the chief assistant, he spoke with some deep meaning.

"Your Majesty's concern is naturally for the stability of the court. However, since the cabinet is set up, it is for His Majesty's consultation. Although someone is not sensitive, but His Majesty asks questions, but only knows to answer truthfully. This is the responsibility of this minister."

As he spoke, Yu Shiyue turned to the first emperor and cupped his hands.

"Your Majesty governs all directions, ranks above the Nine Levels, is sage and wise, and it is naturally difficult for a minister to be in a contingency, but I think that even so, our Ming Dynasty has a vast country and a wide range of people's sentiments. Your Majesty takes care of everything every day. All the ministers and the people, this is more necessary to speak the truth, not flattery, guessing and voting."

"All the ministers in the court have different official positions, different experiences, different positions, and what they say is also different. But it is also the same. Your Majesty can accept suggestions from all sides, and you can get the truth of the court situation and the people's sentiments. The disadvantages are that if your Majesty loses His Majesty's sageness because the ministers did not dare to report uprightly, it is because the ministers have lost their integrity and failed the community."

These words were very skillful, so that after the words were finished, the emperor's face softened, but he was still a little displeased, so he snorted softly and said.

"The truth?"

"What do you mean by orderly assistant? If I accept what the heavenly official and the first assistant said, and transfer the two men from the Ministry of War, it will be unsagely?"

Yu Shiyue shook his head and said.

"Your Majesty clearly understands that this is definitely not what I mean. I have just said that the responsibility of the cabinet is to consult and advise His Majesty. The final decision is still up to His Majesty's holy judgment."

"Your Majesty, Chief Assistant, also said something just now. Your majesty is wise and wise. What you think and think about, what you plan and think, is far beyond the reach of your ministers. I am afraid that your majesty will be busy every day, and you will not be able to listen to the words of the ministers, so I will tell you what you know. Thinking about it, I believe that the same is true for the Lord Tianguan and the Lord Shoufu, and this is also the original intention of the imperial court to open up the way of speech."

"The thoughts and words of all the ministers are brought together before His Majesty's case, so that His Majesty can see the overall situation when making a decision. Therefore, although the minister feels that the transfer of the two ministers of the Ministry of War out of the capital at this time will damage the stability of the court, but I will only speak out and tell His Majesty the pros and cons."

"If your majesty still makes this decision after observing your minister's words, then it must be because your majesty has deeper intentions, and if your minister has not thought carefully, you should obey the order. How dare you doubt that your majesty is not holy?"

The sincerity of these words, coupled with Yu Shiyue's respectful expression, made Wang Ao's eyes widen a little.

Why didn't he see before that this Master Cifu was so good at talking?
Looking at the emperor's expression, as expected, it has changed a lot, and the original anger has disappeared after these words.

Just as Wang Ao was about to speak, the first emperor already spoke, saying.

"I already know that Mr. Yu is a loyal minister, no matter what Mr. Yu said just now, what does the heavenly official think?"

Obviously, this was not the conflict just asked, but the transfer of the two men in the military department who asked. Seeing this situation, Wang Ao had no choice but to swallow the words on his lips, and looked at Wang Wen expectantly.

However, to his disappointment, the lord Tianguan just cupped his hands flatly and said.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the pros and cons of this matter, the minister, the chief minister, and the second minister have already made their own statements. As the second minister said, the ministers have their own official duties, and it is difficult to be perfect when they think about it. Therefore, What the ministers should do is to report their respective attitudes to His Majesty, and as for the final decision, you should listen to His Majesty's holy ruling!"

With such an attitude, he was not the same as Wang Tianguan in the court, but it was not as expected by Wang Ao.

The truth is what Yu Shiyue said just now, and he was too forced. What he said actually meant the same thing. The courtiers’ advice was all suggestions, and in the end everything was up to the emperor to decide. Moreover, he was keenly aware that the emperor was angry. The reason for this is to put it bluntly, it is a minister's day to advise, but to obey orders is to be loyal to one's duty.

Once this point came out, he could only listen to Sacred Heart's dictatorship. This not only blocked Yu Shiyue's way to say more, but also blocked the way of Wang Ao and the others.

When Yu Shiyue had already expressed such an attitude, if he said more, then the emperor's displeasure would probably be transferred to them.

This old guy is really hard to deal with!

Silently raised the importance of Yu Shiyue in his heart, but Wang Ao did not continue to say anything, but obviously, the emperor was also hesitating about this matter. Yu Shiyue's words only dispelled the emperor's doubts about Yu Shiyue, but did not He failed to persuade the emperor to accept Yu Shiyue's proposition.

After hesitating for a moment, the emperor finally did not make a direct conclusion, but said.

"I already know what you mean, and I need to think about this matter again, so go back."

"Sir, please retire!"

The three of them didn't dare to say any more, bowed their hands in salute, retired and left the hall.

After leaving the main hall, the three of them stopped on the palace road tacitly. Wang Wen looked at Yu Shiyue next to him, and for some reason, his gaze was a little more gentle, said.

"Master Cifu really impressed Wang today. From now on, everything in the court will need to be said with this heart in mind. I hope Lord Cifu can always remember what he said today."

After all, Wang Wen left regardless of the different faces of the two people beside him...
