Empress Dowager Sun raised her eyebrows and asked, "Yu Qian, don't sell Guanzi, what's going on?" ”

Yu Qian replied: "The minister has already played the situation in the Beijing division truthfully, and according to the time, it is speculated that this performance should have been sent to the front line!" ”

Empress Dowager Sun was even more incomprehensible, and frowned: "However, the emperor is not on the front line!" ”

Yu Qian shook his head and said, "The emperor is not here, the British Duke is still there, and the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the imperial court are still there!" ”

Hearing this, Empress Dowager Sun suddenly understood.

"You mean...... Let the British Duke come back and preside over the big picture? ”

"Not bad!" Yu Qian said, "These days, the emperor led the soldiers to fight bloodily, and it has long been the monarch and the ministers, if the British public learns that someone in Beijing intends to change the new monarch, he will immediately return to the court and preside over the overall situation, and when the time comes, these rumors and rumors will be self-defeating." ”

Empress Dowager Sun nodded secretly, still thoughtful Yu Qian, although the emperor is missing, he has already established enough prestige in the army, if the soldiers hear that someone intends to change the new monarch, they must not come over with a knife and fight hard!

If the army returns to the court, it will be more secure to crown the crown prince.

Once the position of the prince is decided, it is time for those who support the king to stop.

"That being the case, the mourning family is in charge of the emperor, led by the Ministry of War, with the cooperation of the Ministry of Rites and the Qin Tianjian to prepare to welcome my victorious division of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Submit to Humility and obey the will!"

When I returned to the yamen of the Ministry of War, before my buttocks were hot, another scribe came to the door: "Lord Yu, Master Cao is invited!" ”

The Cao bachelor in the mouth of this scribe is Cao Nai, the first assistant of the cabinet, this person originally followed Kuang Yu to withdraw to Juyong Pass first, and then Kuang Yu was not at ease at the front line, so he insisted on staying, and Cao Nai, Wang Zuo and others returned to Beijing first with a group of civil officials and wounded.

Yu Qian sighed, needless to say, it must be about the Imperial Palace.

Originally, these things had nothing to do with him, but in the emperor's edict, he appointed himself as the secretary of the military department, and added the title of governor of the left capital.

In fact, he didn't understand why the emperor would make this decision.

At the beginning, the emperor wanted to drive the imperial expedition in person, but he was the one with the loudest opposition, and even reprimanded the emperor in front of the Manchu officials for not understanding military affairs, working hard for the people and money, and hurting the country.

He still remembers the situation at that time, the emperor was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick, and he had to cut himself to vent his anger, but it was Empress Dowager Sun who said some good things for the sake of the first emperor, and the matter was over.

However, judging from the edict that Zhang Yi brought back, where is the emperor still the ignorant child he knows, even if the first emperor is alive, under the dilemma of Tumubao, the decision he can make is nothing more than that, right?

Now the prince is young, the country depends on the monarch, and the edict makes it clear that if the emperor encounters an accident, he will be succeeded by King Yu.

This avoids the scene of cannibalism between uncle and nephew, and allows everyone to unite with the outside world.

You must know that the Zhu family's uncles and nephews have a historical heritage, and the emperor can see this layer, which shows that he really cares about state affairs and completely lets go of the selfish thoughts in his heart.

As for letting yourself lead the Jingying, this is even more incredible.

If the front line is defeated, it must first wave the army to the south, and take the Beijing division directly, there are many people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and there will definitely be someone who proposes to move south, and the emperor's edict is equivalent to blocking the road to the south in advance, and he was ordered to defend the Beijing division, which is justified.

It's strange, how did the emperor know that he would definitely not propose to move south?

When I saw that edict, it was like ...... The emperor can not predict the prophet......

With a full stomach full of doubts, Yu Qian came to Wenyuan Pavilion, where the five scholars had been waiting for a long time.

The first assistant is Cao Nai, and the next is Chen Xun, Miao Zhen, Gao Hub, and Zhang Yi.

The cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty was founded by the Yongle Emperor, and it was only more than 20 years at this time, and its role was roughly equivalent to the emperor's secretary group, with very limited power and responsibilities, and it was far from the cabinet that later generations were familiar with.

Cao Nai looked up and saw Yu Qian, and hurriedly greeted: "Yu Shilang, you are here, sit down!" ”

Yu Qian bowed to everyone, and then sat down at the bottom of the seat.

"You are so anxious to come to Yu, what is the so-called?"

Cao Nai took the lead and said: "The matter is urgent, so I won't be polite to you, now that the emperor has not returned from the Northern Expedition, what are your plans?" ”

Yu Qian looked strange and said: "We are all ministers, we should fulfill our duties and do our part well. ”

"Yu Qian, don't be confused with me!" Cao Nai simply made his words clear, "There are rumors that you took the lead in supporting the establishment of the Imperial Palace, is there such a thing?" ”

"Absolutely not!" Yu Qian shook his head like a rattle, and said again and again, "Rumors, pure rumors!" ”

"Really?"

Yu Qian was directly angry, stood up and said, "Master Cao, when did I tell someone a lie?" ”

"Sit down, sit down!" Cao Nai waved his hand, "A few of our old guys are just looking for you to verify the situation, what are you excited about?" ”

Yu Qian was also in a hurry, so angry that his beard stood up, and said: "I am doing the right thing at the end of someone's behavior, and now I am being slandered for no reason, how can I not be excited?" ”

"That's good!" Cao Nai nodded and said, "Even if you are not the leader, but the rumors have flowed out, you can tell me, in this current situation, do you support the Emperor of the Servant Kingdom?" ”

Yu Qian sat back down and said, "This kind of thing shouldn't be my turn to worry about!" ”

"That's not right!" Cao Nai shook his head and said, "As a squire of the military department, and you are also a candidate for the military book hand-picked by the emperor, if you don't worry about it, who will worry about it?" ”

"That's good!" Yu Qian was helpless, so he had to say, "The emperor's edict does say that if something happens, let King Yu succeed to the throne." However, now the emperor has not encountered an accident, but only temporarily lost contact, in the next opinion, before getting the exact news, this edict is a piece of waste paper, should not take effect! ”

Cao Nai and several other scholars glanced at each other and nodded.

"And!" Yu Qian continued, "Who proposed to support the king at this time, his heart can be punished, and he must be strictly investigated!" ”

At this time, Zhang Yi said: "This edict was drafted by me, when the army was trapped in the civil fort, the emperor decided to fight to the death, for the stability of the country, this is to leave the edict in advance, if someone has bad intentions, want to make a fuss on the edict, I am the first to disagree!" ”

Cao Nai nodded and said: "In this case, let's say okay, before getting the exact news from the emperor, everyone must be united, Yu Qian, there will definitely be many people looking for you during this time, you have to be ready!" ”
