Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 9 Proposal for the Crown Prince
Empress Dowager Sun sat in the hall, cold sweat oozing from her forehead, and the jade hand hidden under her sleeve robe had already made a deep impression.

Jin Ying's words made her really realize.

What a serious situation he is facing now.

King of the dead?

As soon as these four words appeared in her heart, it made her dizzy and almost collapsed on the spot.

Taking a deep breath and trying to calm down, Empress Dowager Sun said.

"There is no need to discuss this matter. As Yu Qian said, at such a critical moment, whoever dares to talk about moving south again will be executed!"

Because the matter was so serious that even the Empress Dowager Sun herself did not realize it.

When she said these two words, her voice trembled.

Zhu Qiyu breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that Empress Dowager Sun had realized the seriousness of the matter.

So he got up first and spoke.

"I respectfully abide by the order of the Virgin, and from today onwards, those who dare to move south will be beheaded!"

The ministers below also got up and echoed the road.

"The Queen Mother is wise."

Of course, except for one of these people.

That is Xu Wei.

He naturally didn't hear Jin Ying's whispers.

But seeing Empress Dowager Sun's attitude turned sharply.

After carefully scrutinizing the implied meaning in the words of King Yun just now.

There are two words in Xu Yan's mind.

Finished!

This time not only offended the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, but even the empress dowager in the palace, I am afraid that he will not have any good impression on him.

After all, he almost inadvertently committed a serious crime that no one could afford for the emperor.

For a while, Xu Wei only felt that his future was lost.

I really regret why I talked so much.

But at this time, no one in the hall cared about Xu Wei's performance.

Because Empress Dowager Sun's voice has continued to sound.

"I am united, and the capital will surely stand firm."

"Yu Shilang, you are in charge of all matters of the military department. After leaving the palace today, I will immediately count the soldiers, come up with a method, and submit it to the court."

Empress Dowager Sun said it was normal.

But the atmosphere in the hall became subtle again.

Because, with this sentence, another real problem has been turned to the table.

In this situation, who should call the shots?

It has been said before.

Now in the capital, the queen mother holds most of the real power and can mobilize the Beijing battalion and the nine gates garrisoned officers.

But in fact, it was King Yu who was appointed to supervise the country.

Just now, even though there was Xu Hao, who was so confused that he couldn't position himself, he lifted the lid.

But because Zhu Qiyu took a step back.

He took the initiative to speak and played to the queen mother, which was to cover up this contradiction for the time being.

But the Queen Mother's words.

But it brought the matter to the table again.

There is no doubt that the Queen Mother Sun's remarks cannot be faulted, and it is indeed what should be done at the moment.

But notice.

Yu Qian is an important minister of the Six Divisions and a serious former minister.

Except when it comes to royal affairs.

otherwise.

According to the rules, the queen mother cannot directly issue an edict to the courtiers.

This kind of rules and procedures.

Wenchen is far more important than Xunqi.

To be serious.

The will of the wrong program is chaos!

The courtier can completely refuse!

So, everyone's eyes fell on Yu Qian.

To take, or not to take?

Accepting this decree means that the Empress Dowager Sun can intervene in government affairs by default, which is against the law of etiquette.

But if you don't accept it, how can you reject it?
Just now, these courtiers have been shouting, so that the queen mother has firm confidence and sticks to the capital.

Now the queen mother is following their wishes, but they are entangled in such trivial matters?
Zhu Qiyu watched from the side, and roughly guessed Empress Dowager Sun's intentions in his heart.

Her old man, although she has given up her plan to move south.

But he still wanted to take things into his own hands.

It's been a while since I went to the expedition today.

Empress Dowager Sun has always abide by her duty in the palace.

What should intervene and what should not be intervened, the degree in between is very accurate.

It was impossible for her to not know what her decree meant.

On the contrary, she is taking this opportunity to test the attitude of the courtiers!

It's a pity that she picked the wrong person...

Yu Qian took a step forward, bowed his head and said: "Our Lady Rong, before the emperor was in charge of the expedition, he once ordered the emperor to supervise the country, but now the emperor unfortunately fell into the hands of the thieves, and the affairs of the general in Beijing could not last for a long time. It is an decree to order King Yu to supervise the affairs and supervise all officials."

A faint smile flashed in Zhu Qiyu's eyes.

This is Yu Qian!

He will not be afraid of threats and temptations, he will only do things according to the beliefs in his heart.

Empress Dowager Sun's temptation, if it is a different person, it may still be tangled.

But when it comes to Yu Qian, there is no need to think about it at all.

Since the procedure is wrong, let the procedure be legal.

The reason for such an embarrassing situation now.

It is because King Yu has the name of supervising the country, but has no right to supervise the country.

Empress Dowager Sun holds the power in Beijing, but she has no position to intervene in government affairs.

After all, any intervention by the queen mother in government affairs must be authorized by the emperor.

In the current situation, the emperor is caught in the enemy's hand, and he can barely compare to the emperor's weakness and inability to handle political affairs.

But again, because the emperor was not in the capital, it was impossible for the Empress Dowager Sun to obtain the emperor's Ming Zhao authorization.

Even so, it is impossible for the courtiers to accept the presence of the female protagonist at such a time of crisis.

So the best way at the moment is to let King Yu really exercise the power of supervising the country.

He thought so, so he said so.

After not caring at all, Empress Dowager Sun's face suddenly changed.

Empress Dowager Sun's expression is indeed not good-looking.

She already had this expectation in her mind.

But he didn't expect that Yu Qian would push her back so directly.

You know, what Yu Qian said just now is basically a slap in the face.

He didn't pay attention to her decree at all, but was talking to himself.

In other words, her edict was directly ignored!
It was not dismissed, but at the same time, it was not mentioned, and it was directly assumed that nothing happened.

This made her even more uncomfortable than directly rejecting her decree.

For a while, Empress Dowager Sun was so angry that her chest heaved and her face turned pale.

Looking at Zhu Qiyu, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice.

Several times in his past and present life, but it was the first time he saw Empress Dowager Sun being so angry.

Although he knew he shouldn't be gloating, he couldn't help it.

But then again.

This also shows that Empress Dowager Sun's political will is not enough.

This kind of thing is not too common in the courtroom!

Not to mention, this is just a decree that doesn't even count as a verbal order.

It is the real imperial decree. The ministers will not care too much until the procedure is actually completed and issued to the six divisions.

After all, the government is done by everyone through consultation, and there is no reason for the ruler to decide with one word.

What's more, Yu Qian is not facing a serious emperor.

So he refused, and he had no burden at all.

Empress Dowager Sun glanced around for a week.

Seeing that none of the courtiers came forward to accuse Yu Qian of being wrong, he knew that his actions just now were too rash.

Pressing the anger in her heart, Empress Dowager Sun felt a headache.

Just hand over the regent power to King Yu?
She secretly glanced at Zhu Qiyu, who was sitting in the chair next to her, who was very sick.

I always feel a little uncomfortable in my heart.

Especially, after seeing Zhu Qiyu analyze the current situation so calmly and clearly.

Empress Dowager Sun was even more uneasy.

After thinking for a while, the Queen Mother Sun asked: "King Yu, Yu Qian is admonishing, asking Aijia to entrust the affairs of the court to you, what do you think?"

I sit and watch...

Zhu Qiyu sneered in his heart, but still got up and said: "Mother, such a big matter, it should be decided by the ministers and the Virgin, and the minister dare not say more."

At this time, he is not going to show any limelight!

Although the situation in the past and present has changed slightly.

But he believed that with the remarks just now, the ministers present should know in their hearts who can really sit in the capital.

What's more, in the eyes of these rule-abiding ministers, it is impossible to allow an empress dowager without the emperor's edict to directly intervene in government affairs.

The ball was kicked back, and Empress Dowager Sun couldn't help rubbing her forehead.

She felt more and more that this King Yu was different from before.

These two sentences seem to be ordinary, but in fact, they imply a sharp edge.

Zhu Qiyu didn't seem to say anything, but he left a message.

He did not say yes, nor did he say no, but he said, let her discuss with the ministers.

That is to say, next, she will definitely ask the ministers present.

But ask them?
Looking at Yu Qian's natural face, Empress Dowager Sun knew what they were going to say without thinking.

He hesitated for a moment.

Empress Dowager Sun still decided not to listen to what she didn't want to hear, and said directly.

"The emperor once said to Aijia before he left Beijing that he would choose a day to be crowned prince after Dasheng returned to Beijing."

"Now that the emperor has fallen into the hands of the enemy, people in the capital are afraid of panic, and the court cannot be without a leader for a day."

"The meaning of mourning the family, the Ministry of Rites should be ordered to choose an auspicious day, and the eldest brother Jianshen should be established as the crown prince, so as to reassure the heart of the world."

"Before the emperor returned to the capital, as soon as he responded to the general affairs, King Yu would supervise the country and assist the government. What do you think?"

Xu is that Empress Dowager Sun is a little tired.

I was too lazy to play any more fighters, so I just said what I meant.

The first few sentences were naturally ignored by the ministers.

What the emperor said before leaving the capital is just an excuse, the focus is on the next two sentences.

Set up the prince, set the prince, and secure the heart of the world!

Peace of mind?

Of course, if the emperor does not come back, how should the courtiers stand in line, and whose hearts should the officials and the common people swear allegiance to?

In addition, another sentence is also very intriguing.

When Yu Qian gave advice, he said, "I ordered King Yu to take charge of the great affairs".

When it came to the Queen Mother, it became "Ming Yu Wang to supervise the country and assist the government".

One chief and one assistant.

The difference between the two is huge.

Yu Qian's meaning is to entrust all the power of the capital to the hands of King Yu, and King Yu is the master of everything.

The meaning of Empress Dowager Sun is to establish the prince first, then entrust the power of the capital to the prince, and finally let the king act as the prince.

It seems that there is no difference, but there is a difference in the procedure. In the end, it is King Yu who comes to be in charge.

But anyone with a slightly political sensibility knows that the two can be very different.

The biggest difference is the name.

If it is according to Yu Qian's method, then the power of the capital itself is in the hands of King Yu.

Unless the emperor returns, no one will be able to seize power from King Yu.

But if you follow the Queen Mother's method, then it will be different.

The power belonged to the prince, and the king was only an assistant.

Then you can replace it!
Although the royal clan is the most suitable to assist the government, but the honorable ministers, civil and military officials can also assist the government.

In this way, it is much easier to remove the authority of the king.

The ministers present were people who had been ups and downs in the Huanhai Sea for many years, but this was the first time they had encountered such a situation.

Although I understood the difference after thinking about it, but how to express my position, it is all difficult...
