Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 329
Night, Yufu.

The weather has gradually warmed up. In the quiet small pavilion, Yu Qian and Yu Shiyue sat opposite each other, with a pot of hot wine and some side dishes in front of them.

Although it was said that he had been punished, not only did Yu Qian not feel disappointed at this moment, but his face was calm. Looking over carefully, he could even feel a little relaxed.

Seeing the old friend so calm and relaxed, Yu Shiyue couldn't help but shook his head, raised his glass and said, "Yesterday I said that I would come to congratulate you on the expiration of your confinement period and your reinstatement, but who would have thought that this day has not come yet? You were banned from the mansion again, what is this all about!"

Yu Qian greeted him with a toast, with a smile on his calm face, he also shook his head, but said: "Brother Shi Chao, it's very different, very different!"

Yu Shiyue was taken aback for a moment, and then nodded slightly.

It is indeed very different.

The last time Yu Qian was grounded, but for a whole month, the emperor was furious, and there were a lot of discussions between the government and the opposition. Even Yu Qian himself was quite confused about his future.

But this time, although it is the same foot ban, the meaning is not the same.

The emperor removed Yu Qian from the position of admiral and governor of the Beijing camp, but in terms of specific punishment, he was only banned for three days and fined for three months, which can be regarded as lenient.

What's more, if he was beaten and punished, then this matter will be wiped out.

Although the Beijing camp was lost, Yu Qian's foundation was not lost.

And anyone with a discerning eye can see that what happened to Wang Ji this time can't really be blamed on Yu Qian.

On the contrary, after the accident, Yu Qian's attitude of not shirking is also one of the reasons why the government and the opposition are pleading for him.

With a sigh, Yu Shiyue said.

"In the final analysis, His Majesty still trusts you. Now it seems that Ting Yi and you are worrying unnecessarily on New Year's Eve."

You know, Yu Qian and the emperor had such a quarrel that day that they almost got into a fight.

The so-called sacred will is unpredictable, Yu Qian was too sharp at the time, and no one could be sure whether the emperor really wanted to take him down, or it was just a dispute of different political opinions.

In the situation at that time, even Yu Qian himself was not sure where his future was.

Even after returning to the mansion, he deliberately wanted to alienate Yu Shiyue, fearing that he would be implicated.

But now, when all the dust has settled, looking back, I can't help but feel that I was a little too worried at that time.

Yu Qian nodded and said: "That's right, at that time, Yu was indeed worrying too much. The emperor is not a mean and ungrateful person. Now that I think about it, it was indeed Yu who was too persistent on that day. Pingyue... oh..."

Speaking of this, Yu Qian's originally relaxed face suddenly became heavy, with deep guilt floating in his eyes, and said.

"Thinking about it now, this matter is indeed Yu's fault. Your Majesty lives deep in the palace and takes care of everything, but he can still take time to pay attention to the situation in the southwest, and observe the truth in detail. During the New Year, he is still worried about the people of Miaodi and has all the people in his heart."

"However, as a Minister of the Ministry of War, Yu has never noticed the strangeness of Miao Di, and so prevented His Majesty from replacing Wang Ji. Now that I think about it, Yu has indeed neglected his duty."

In this matter, Yu Qian really felt guilty.

Still the same sentence, no matter how many reasons and justifications, they all seem pale and powerless in front of the bloody and tearful petition written by Pingyue soldiers and civilians.

In the early court, Yu Qian also listened to the words of impeachment of Wang Ji by the officials.

He had to admit that he hadn't considered this matter carefully.

If Wang Ji was really afraid of being implicated by Wang Zhen, so he held back his troops and planned to take the bandits back to himself, then he, who defended Wang Ji, would indirectly become an accomplice in the misery of the people in Miaodi.

And more importantly, once Wang Ji really has such selfish intentions, it is conceivable that he will still stand still in the next few months.

Every time he thinks about this, Yu Qian can't help the cold sweat rising from his back.

Fortunately, on New Year's Eve, the emperor insisted on replacing Wang Ji no matter what.

Otherwise, once Wang Ji really continued to stand still, then Yu Qian himself would become a sinner of Miaodi.

At that time, even if the court will not blame him, but Yu Qian himself will regret it for the rest of his life.

Fortunately, the emperor didn't listen to him, so he didn't make a big mistake.

As for why the emperor insisted on replacing Wang Ji, Yu Qian naturally attributed it to the emperor's outstanding military insight and knowledge of people.

This point has already been vividly reflected in the Battle of Oala.

At that time, under such a bad situation on the border, the emperor was able to strategize and win a thousand miles.

In the Battle of Bauhinia Pass, against the opposition of many ministers, the Beijing camp was mobilized to fight decisively at Bauhinia Pass and finally won a complete victory.

This kind of courage and vision are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Therefore, Yu Qian also took it for granted that this time, the emperor had a keen insight into the harsh situation in Miaodi in several military reports in the southwest, so he decisively decided to replace the commander-in-chief.

In comparison, he, Minister of the Ministry of War, seemed fatuous and incompetent.

Seeing Yu Qian's appearance, Yu Shiyue sighed and said in relief.

"You don't have to blame yourself so much. The emperor has sent Baoding Bo to replace Wang Ji. Counting the days, it's almost time to arrive at Miaodi. Pegasus will deliver it quickly. Within two or three days, Baoding Bo will receive the order. Thinking about it in a few more days, the siege of Pingyue will be resolved."

"What's more, you can't blame this incident entirely on you. The military department is busy, there are changes at the border, and Wang Ji concealed the real situation in Miaodi. You have limited energy and it is difficult to take care of the southwest. .”

"This Minister of the Ministry of War, if anyone else does it, it will not be better than you."

After hearing these words, Yu Qian's brows opened slightly, and he sighed.

"Thank you brother Yu for your comfort, but a mistake is a mistake. You lose your horse and you don't know it's a blessing. After this incident, Yu should also learn a lesson. Your majesty is wise and holy, and every move has its own meaning."

"Yu is right in the prelude to the imperial court in the future, and he should think more about it. It is really wrong to rush into His Majesty like before."

Yu Shiyue was amused, raised his cup and said.

"This is a surprise. You, Yu Tingyi, also know that it's time to change your bad temper. It's time to make it clear!"

This time, Yu Shiyue was really happy.

The biggest shortcoming of his friend is that he is too stubborn.

At a young age and in a high position, he looks kind and friendly to others, but in fact, he is very hard on the inside.

But all the things that are determined, eight horses can't pull them back.

But in this court, the most taboo thing is too hard and easy to break.

After this incident, if Yu Qian can change his stubbornness a little bit, he really deserves to toss for so long.

Seeing Yu Shiyue's teasing appearance, Yu Qian couldn't laugh or cry, and waved his hands.

"Brother Yu, don't make fun of Yu Mou anymore. Yu Mou really learned a lot about this incident, and more importantly, without the shackles of the Beijing camp, Yu Mou can finally flex his muscles and don't have to walk on eggshells every day." .”

In fact, this is what Yu Qian thinks he has gained the most this time.

Yes, for Yu Qian, the current Beijing camp is a heavy shackle on him.

The Ministry of War has the right to deploy troops, and the admiral of the Beijing camp has the right to command the troops.

Although it is said that to really mobilize the Beijing camp, the imperial decree of the emperor is still needed.

But with two jobs at the same time, Yu Qian's life is not easy.

He knew in his heart that there were countless eyes staring at him in the capital, holding great power, so he should be more cautious and not dare to step beyond the rules.

Yu Qian has ambitions in his heart. He has countless thoughts about the border and the Ministry of War, but they are all tightly locked in his heart by the shackles of the Beijing camp, and he dare not mention them at all.

Because, as he is in charge of the Beijing camp and the Ministry of War at the same time, as long as he reveals these intentions a little bit, he will be suspected of being arrogant and having evil intentions.

He can only be low-key, low-key, and low-key.

But I dare not do anything that goes beyond my duty. How hard it is for this kind of life.

However, the Beijing camp has a lot to do with the struggle between Wenchen and Xungui.

It's not like he can unload it if he wants to.

Now that the emperor took action and took the Beijing camp from him, Yu Qian would only feel relieved.

Yu Shiyue nodded, sighed, and said.

"That's right. It's really not easy for you to carry the burden of the Beijing camp and the Ministry of War at the same time. Losing the Beijing camp this time will be beneficial to you."

As he spoke, there was a hint of worry in his eyes, and he continued.

"I just don't know who His Majesty will hand over the Beijing Camp to. Now that the Beijing Camp is in your hands, you have just washed away your impetuousness and look like an elite soldier. in my hands... oh..."

Compared to Yu Shiyue's worries, Yu Qian was very calm and said.

"Your Majesty must have already made arrangements for this matter, Brother Yu, don't worry too much."

Yu Shiyue glared at him lightly, and said.

"You are very generous, yes, His Majesty will confine you to the mansion for three days. It is useless for you to worry about this matter. Come on, you and I will not return today if we are not drunk..."
