Why did the emperor rebel?

Heavy snow fell one after another, covering the capital with snow.

The Qianqing Palace was as warm as spring, Lu Zhong stood at the bottom, and respectfully reported.

"Your Majesty, according to the fact that the front line does not receive reports at night, we have also sent five hundred elite soldiers to escort Yang Jie back. We have already set off for several days. After scouting from the front line, we have found the trace of this team. Now this team is far away from Yanghe. There are still about a hundred miles to pass, and it is expected to arrive within three days, so far, there is no abnormality."

"Besides, there was news from Jinyiwei lurking in the Wara camp that on the day Yang Jie left, King Bodu was imprisoned in the headquarters for offending him first, and sent a thousand guards to guard him. Some people tried to infiltrate to inquire about the details, but to no avail, the details have been written in the memorandum, Your Majesty please read."

At the same time, he took out a secret note from his sleeve and handed it over.

Zhu Qiyu sat on the couch, while listening to Lu Zhong's report, he disassembled the melody and read it carefully.

The content of the memorandum is not complicated. Compared with what Lu Zhong said, it just has some more details.

Therefore, after reading it, Zhu Qiyu couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Can Yang Jie get in touch?"

This memorial was sent by spies lurking in Oala. Their duty was to spy on information. Although Jin Yiwei had operations before, it was after Zhu Qiyu ascended the throne that he really shifted his attention to the grassland.

"This……"

"Go and spread a decree to call the Uncle King Min into the palace. In addition, call Wang Cheng and Song Wenyi together."

"In addition, there are also many clans who have secretly bought some officials and plan to impeach Yu Shaobao. There are also some clans who incite the people to fight against the Yamen. Judging from the current situation, Yu Shaobao wants to be imprisoned years ago. I'm afraid..."

As long as there is no conclusion for a day between the DPRK and China, then the emperor can make secret preparations without any scruples.

"You two gentlemen, what's the matter here?"

Although Zhu Qiyu also wanted to know the specific situation earlier, but under the current situation, Yang Jie's safety should be given priority.

What is certain now is that Yang Jie is basically out of danger, but the existence of Ye Xian is always a hidden danger.

"Did you say what it was?"

Sure enough, after hearing Zhu Qiyu's question, Huai En hesitated for a moment, and then said in a low voice.

"Returning to Your Majesty, Jin Yiwei has reported the news of Yang Jie's return to Dingxiang Marquis Guo Zongbing at the same time. After receiving the letter, Guo Zongbing has dispatched several teams of scouts to keep an eye on this team."

"It is said that it was Yu Shaobao who handed over the memorandum, and the servant asked me a lot, it seems to be related to the side matter..."

Of course, what Zhu Qiyu only said to Qian was to do his best, but now it seems that these clans still refuse to obediently spit out the meat from their mouths.

"Your Majesty, the cabinet has just received a memorial from Yu Qian, Minister of the Ministry of War, so the ministers and others have come here specially to present this memorial to Your Majesty."

When everything is ready, the emperor gives an order, then everything is really too late.

Others don't know, but Zhu Qiyu knows very well that Yang Jie never gave up the idea of ​​killing Yexian.

Of course, these memorials were suppressed by Zhu Qiyu, and they were not published.

Now that the court is deadlocked on this matter, naturally someone thinks of Yu Qian.

Yu Qian, who is not in the capital city, is not idle either. He is bold in the local area. Judging from the official documents that have been transmitted during this period, he has gone from Henan Mansion to Huguang and other places. Although Wang was dissatisfied, his arms couldn't twist his thighs, and he was basically tidied up.

Some of them even unabashedly labeled Yu Qian as a traitor for oppressing the clan and seizing power.

Not long after, Huai En turned back and saw him coming in a hurry. Zhu Qiyu couldn't help being a little surprised. It shouldn't be so fast from the palace to the Min Palace...

Zhu Qiyu's eyes flashed, and his face sank.

Same as last time, when Yu Qian left Beijing this time, Jin Yiwei still followed him.

"In some clans, after Shaobao left, some people oppressed the state capital and re-occupied the military settlements. Fortunately, when Shaobao was rectifying the military settlements, he also took advantage of his power to dismiss weak officials in some places. Therefore, many officials in the local area do not dare to join forces with the clan, and most of the military settlements returned by Qingzhang are still in the hands of the local yamen."

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Qiyu turned sideways and said to Huai En who was beside him.

In front of the temple, he acted like he was obedient, and if he could not talk much, he would not talk too much.

However, after all, the kings are deeply rooted in the local area. Even if Yu Qian has the ability to reach the sky, it is difficult to solve the problem without shaking the status of the kings.

Lu Zhong bowed and saluted, but he didn't say much.

However, after this period of time, Zhu Qiyu could clearly feel that the memorials of the kings became more and more intensive, and their words became more and more severe.

"My lord, this servant has just been ordered to call Lord Min into the palace. Unexpectedly, as soon as I left the palace, I saw Lord Shoufu and Yu Cifu. They said they had something urgent to report to the emperor, and this servant did not dare to delay, so they sent another person to Prince Xunmin, hurry up and report."

"However, Mr. Guo has deduced their next route. If His Majesty wants to, he can order Mr. Guo to lay an ambush on the road and rescue Yang Jie as soon as possible."

However, what is certain is that the imprisonment of Bodu must be related to Yang Jie!

Hearing this, Zhu Qiyu frowned and asked.

Huai En received the order and left in a hurry. At the same time, Zhu Qiyu also waved Lu Zhong to retreat. After a moment of silence in the hall, Zhu Qiyu's expression was complicated, and finally, he sighed softly.

According to the usual practice, Wang Ao should have briefly outlined the content of the memorandum, but this time, he handed it over directly without saying much.

Because the time is too short, those who can get in are basically some unremarkable soldiers. Naturally, it is difficult to get too detailed information.

Of course, when it comes to the clan, Lu Zhong is still relatively cautious, and only talked about the general situation, but the specifics can only be vague.

The capital city has been very lively recently, because of the border affairs and various rumors about the palace, undercurrents are surging.

He could probably guess what Wang Ao and Yu Shiyue were going to do here.

Judging from the news in the memorial, it can only be determined that Boduhe also had a falling out first, but it is difficult to know the specific reason and the situation of the high-level situation in Oara.

In this memorial, Yu Qian made a clear statement as soon as he came up, asking the emperor to stop the war.

During this period of time, the Ministry of War has been transporting ordnance to the capital, and the Ministry of Households is also reducing the expenditure of various yamen, which is proof.

Since Bodu was imprisoned, it can be inferred that something must have happened inside Wala, but I'm afraid I can only ask Yang Jie about the specifics.

"Yes!"

Therefore, Jin Yiwei will also report back from time to time about the general situation of the rectification of the army.

Therefore, we must find a way to make the emperor change his mind.

It's just that last time it was a dark guard, but this time, Zhu Qiyu directly sent five hundred brocade guards to protect him.

Wynn was stunned for a moment, but only for a moment, he lowered his head and went out to deliver the decree.

When Yu Qian left Beijing this time, he was targeting the clan, so all his methods were actually aimed at the clan.

Now, the border negotiations have reached a stalemate. The coalition forces of the Karaqin and Weng Liguo Te tribes are stationed outside the city of Xuanfu, neither advancing nor retreating.

"However, the escorts this time are also Yexian's personal guards. There are about 500 people, and they are very vigilant. It is very difficult to get in touch with Yang Jie without being discovered."

In fact, the matter is so big, even if no one tells Yu Qian, the news may not be hidden from him.

However, what Wynn didn't expect was that the emperor pondered for a moment, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, he shook his head and said.

Side matter?

However, the price is that Zhu Qiyu's memorandum of impeachment against Yu Qian has already piled up as high as a hill.

Moreover, unlike Yu Qian who had to report progress almost every other day at the beginning, during this period, the number of official documents returned by Yu Qian decreased significantly, and the progress was much slower than before.

"No, if Uncle Min Wang arrives, let him wait in the side hall for a while, and you go and call Wang Ao and Yu Shiyue in!"

These words moved Zhu Qiyu's heart, but after hesitating for a moment, he still shook his head and said.

This point was clearly stated in the news he sent back at the beginning.

During the last court meeting, the emperor finally died down. The biggest reason was that Hu Yan proposed to recall Yu Qian.

However, for ordinary courtiers, time is running out.

"Yes."

Of course, this is all an illusion created by Zhu Qiyu, and it is precisely because of this that many important officials in the court who know the inside story are also cautious.

However, Zhu Qiyu was satisfied with this attitude of bowing his head and doing things. He handed the secret in his hand to Wynn to put it away, and Zhu Qiyu asked again.

So, Zhu Qiyu squinted his eyes, opened the memorial, and looked at it intently.

Moreover, if there is no accident, the words in this playbook may not be very pleasant.

Looking at it roughly, in fact, there is only one core point of view, which is that with the current situation on the border, it is enough to stick to it, and it is far from the level where it is necessary to take the initiative to go to war.

"My lord, if you don't want to see me, the servants will go out and report that you have summoned Lord Min to discuss important matters, and ask the two elders to leave the memorial and discuss it later."

If you can't dispel the emperor's idea of ​​going to war, you can't stop the war.

Normally, if it wasn't for a particularly important government affairs, it would not be possible for them to come together with the first assistant and the second assistant.

Now the Ministry of Households is unwilling to stand out, the Ministry of War has no one in charge, and the nobles and ambiguous attitudes are beneficial to the emperor.

Of course, the other ministers didn't know about it, because what Zhu Qiyu showed them was the abridged military newspaper.

During the period between the DPRK and China, there was a lot of quarrels over whether to continue to increase troops. Of course, most of the opinions were that peace is the most important thing, and if you can't fight, don't fight.

So, this is the reason why Wynn turned back. The other servants who notified him did not dare to ask more questions in front of Wang Ao and Wang Ao, nor would they have the ability to observe words and expressions.

However, Yu Qian's performance was originally so fast, presumably, there are indeed some people behind it.

So, when Wang Ao and Yu Shiyue entered the hall, what they saw was Zhu Qiyu with a warm face.

However, Zhu Qiyu didn't care too much. He had expected the difficulty of rectifying the army. After all, since ancient times, reform has never been easy.

"Order Guo Deng to keep an eye on this team, and don't act rashly until Yang Jie is sure."

But there is one exception, that is, the situation where you will definitely be scolded!

Therefore, what he can do is actually to take back the occupied military settlements as much as possible, but it is very difficult to take back all of them.

Sure enough, Yu Qian's style is still the same as before... It's not nice to speak!

Sure enough, Wynn walked to the front of the imperial case, bowed his hands and said.

This point, Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian also talked about it before, under normal circumstances, this time to rectify the army, the frontier army is the strongest, and it can recover about [-]% of it. If Du Ning and Cheng Jing are effective in Shanxi and Shaanxi If so, about [-]% can be recovered. As for the kings in the mainland, [-]% of them can be recovered in the end, which is not bad.

"How is the situation at Yu Shaobao's side?"

Seeing that the emperor's face was not very good, Wynn knew that the emperor had already known the intention of the two elders, so he said cautiously.

Wynn's temperament is stable. If it's not urgent, he won't put down his mission and come back in person.

Counting the days, there is still more than a month left before the end of the year, and it has been a while since Yu Qian left Beijing this time.

I don't know if it's because the relationship between Dongchang and Jinyiwei has eased a lot recently, and he, the commander of Jinyiwei, has also been more and more deeply influenced by Shu Liang.

Of course, more importantly, he believes that Yang Jie has his own measure, and if he needs help, he will find a way to spread the news.

"Returning to Your Majesty, it is said that the situation is not very good. Yu Shaobao's local methods are a bit aggressive. Although the kings retreat temporarily, they have their own methods."

After all, the final decision is in the hands of the emperor.

The Son of Heaven, as always, made people feel like a spring breeze. However, Wang Ao couldn't help sweating when he squeezed the memorial in his hand. He glanced at Yu Shiyue next to him, took a deep breath, and stepped forward.

I don't know if it's because I'm not in Beijing, but Yu Qian's memorial is particularly fierce.

At the last court meeting, Zhu Qiyu wanted to continue to increase troops to Xuanfu because the Tatar ministries wanted to invade the south, but was blocked by the courtiers.

As for the main battlers, headed by Wang Wen, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, they are basically Zhu Qiyu's people, so everyone in the government and the opposition knows well that the emperor should want to fight in his heart.

Otherwise, Wang Ao wouldn't have brought Yu Shiyue and the two of them over together...

After handing it over, Wang Ao and Yu Shiyue stood at the bottom, always paying attention to the emperor's expression.

However, the emperor was neither happy nor angry as usual, and could not see any emotion.

Finally, after a while, the emperor closed the memorial and said.

"When Yu Shaobao has been out of Beijing for a long time, it is really not easy to take time to care about the government affairs of the imperial court because of the complicated affairs of rectifying the military settlements."

"I haven't seen him in a few months. His writing in small script is strong and sharp, and he has improved more than before..."
