Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 278 Yu Versailles Qian

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the fire in the hall was burning very vigorously. It should have been warm, but because of Yu Qian's actions just now, the warmth in the room suddenly dissipated a lot.

The heavy snow fell outside the window without any intention of stopping. The old servant who was serving bent over and went outside to get fuel for the stove on his own.

The crackling sound of new charcoal being put into the furnace is very clear in the house.

Yu Shiyue didn't speak, he picked up the teapot on the table, and wanted to pour another cup of tea, but found that the tea in the pot had bottomed out.

So, he raised the teapot and shook it in front of Yu Qian.

Seeing this, the helplessness on Yu Qian's face became more intense, he waved his hand, and signaled the old servant beside him to get some hot tea.

This time, Mr. Yu Ge resumed the previous treatment in Yu Mansion, not only with hot tea stove, but also with snacks.

He was not in a hurry, he pinched a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, feeling the sweetness spread in his mouth, narrowed his eyes, his face was very comfortable.

In the end, Yu Qian couldn't hold back any longer, and with a wry smile, he got up and cupped his hands, begging for mercy.

"Brother Shi Chao, don't bother with Yu Mou. Today, Yu Mou was rude, but I am not... Sigh!"

As he spoke, Yu Qian frowned, with a rare look of sadness on his face.

With a long sigh, he looked at Yu Shiyue and said seriously.

"Brother Shi Chao, you really shouldn't stay today. In the next few days, Yu Mou's life will not be easy. At this time, it's no good to get too close to me, I'm afraid it will drag you down!"

Seeing that Yu Qian brought up a serious matter, Yu Shiyue also straightened his posture and hummed softly.

"I knew that there must be a reason for what you did today. You are not such an impulsive person. You should know which is more important. So, your highness today, why did you act so violently?"

A series of events in the palace happened so fast that people were caught off guard.

Even Yu Shiyue didn't have time to think about it.

Now that he sees that Yu Qian is deliberately separating himself from him, he naturally has doubts about the things in the palace.

There was a better solution to the situation at that time.

Just as Yu Shiyue and Gao Gu had been planning, first appease the emperor and drag it on for a few days.

When the imperial court opened the seal, this matter was discussed in the imperial court, whether it was to reprimand or change the commander-in-chief, it was always the result of discussion among the officials, and Yu Qian would not be allowed to bear the anger of the emperor alone.

Even if it couldn't be stopped at that time, the Ministry of War prepared ordnance, mobilized the army, and after a series of preparations, it could be delayed until the opening of the seal.

At that time, even if the holy order has been issued, it is not impossible to recover it.

There was absolutely no need for such a deadlock with the emperor on the spot.

Although Yu Qian has not been dismissed now, he is banned from the mansion and is not allowed to intervene in the affairs of the Ministry of War.

Without his stop, it's really that no one can stop Chief Yi.

This kind of counterproductive behavior is not something a politically mature Minister of the Seven Ministers should do.

It is not impossible to say that Yu Qian was provoked by the emperor's words, but looking at Yu Qian's current performance, it is obviously not the case.

Yu Qian's expression was a little complicated, and he pondered for a moment before opening his mouth.

"Brother Shi Chao is so intelligent, can't you really see that His Majesty's move is a drunkard's will, and the removal of Wang Ji is just a cover, and the real target is Yu Mou!"

Yu Shiyue also frowned, and asked: "How can you see that?"

Yu Qian said: "As Brother Shichao said, the matter of Miaodi does not affect the overall situation. Although I don't agree with His Majesty changing the commander-in-chief at this time, I am indeed dissatisfied that Your Majesty ignored our advice and issued an edict directly."

"However, Yu still has the sense of being a courtier, so he will never threaten His Majesty with resignation. The reason for this is because of His Majesty's words."

Now there were only the two of them, and Yu Qian didn't shy away from it, and straightforwardly defined his behavior in the palace.

That is to threaten the emperor, but they all know in their hearts that the emperor's character is not a person who is threatened by others.

Therefore, although Yu Qian's words in the palace were fierce, in fact, he had given up the idea of ​​​​preventing the emperor from changing the commander-in-chief.

Yu Shiyue quickly went through the performances in the palace and realized something in his heart.

Many things were difficult to judge at the time, but it was easy to find clues afterwards.

Recalling the reunion at that time, although everyone had different political opinions and argued with each other, in general, they were all within the controllable range.

Until the emperor suddenly got angry.

"...What does the Ministry of War eat... [-] troops can't come out, and you don't have to do it as a minister of the Ministry of War... The thief's knife is about to be put on my neck, and the Beijing camp is still resting... ..."

The situation has gotten out of control since then!

Seeing Yu Shiyue's understanding expression, Yu Qian knew that he understood, sighed lightly, and said.

"Brother Yu often said that the times make heroes. Yu was just over fifty years old when he was ranked among the seven ministers, and he was a minister of the Ministry of War to supervise the power of the Beijing camp. Title, it is not an exaggeration to call him the ultimate minister."

"As a rule in my court, those who are over 20 years old, tired and unfit for appointment, are allowed to become officials. According to this calculation, Yu has nearly [-] years to serve the country."

"20 years is too long!"

Yu Shiyue wanted to hit someone!

After this year, he will be sixty, and he has worked hard all his life to get into the cabinet. This speed is already not slow.

But people are more dead than others, and goods are thrown away. He wants to enter the ranks of Qiqing, but he doesn't know when it will be.

Elder Yu Ge also wants to serve Daming for another 20 years in Qiqing's position...

Picking up the cup and taking a sip of tea, Yu Ge said with a hint of envy in his old tone.

"Yeah, there are still nearly 20 years left!"

The two had known each other for many years, and Yu Qian could naturally see what this old friend was thinking, but he smiled wryly and sighed again.

"Brother Yu, don't think this is a good thing. Yu has such a reputation in the court at this age, so what about ten years later, 15 years later? How can it not arouse the emperor's fear?"

Yu Shiyue's face changed, and he understood.

Although Yu Qian is only the Minister of the Ministry of War today, but he has the title of Shaobao, which determines that if he wants to advance, he can only go to the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

After all, under the condition that the three princes do not teach, the young teacher, the young teacher, and the young guarantee are already regarded as the ultimate ministers.

And the current Tianguan Wang Wen of the Ministry of Officials is the emperor's confidant, and it is not easy to replace him.

But if he can't advance, Yu Qian will continue to stay in the Ministry of War.

So... what does it mean to be a Minister of the Ministry of War for more than ten years?In particular, the minister of the Ministry of War also supervised the Beijing camp.

Such a long time is enough for him to hold the entire Beijing camp in his hands. Even, with the military department's right to deploy troops, it may not be impossible to plot a rebellion.

Even if Yu Qian was a loyal minister, he wouldn't have any unreasonable thoughts.

But when he was over fifty, he was able to be ranked among the Seven Ministers, and his prestige was as high as that of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

If there are 20 years, even if he does not deliberately form a party, there will be a large number of ministers who are willing to join him and take refuge in his sect.

At that time, even if Yu Qian respects the minister's festival, once the political views turn left in the court, will he listen to the emperor or Yu Qian?

It's not about trust, it's just about risk...
