Chapter 26: Yu Qian resigned
How many years have passed, Yu Qian is still the first time to hear Emperor Li Qingkua, and he is still full of expectations.
"What, you don't have faith?"
"No, it's not ......" Yu Qian looked weird, "It's just a little ...... Odd. β
Li Qing smiled: "Good is good, what's so strange, okay, you don't have to worry, it's just a transition period now, when the emperor has real power, it will be much easier to operate later." β
After a pause, "What I care about now is the situation on the grassland. β
Yu Qian is very optimistic, "Warat has already won a big victory, as long as the Ming continues to trade with it, Warat can be worry-free, and then do things for the Ming wholeheartedly." β
Li Qing sighed and said, "But have you ever thought about what if Warat changes its leader in the future?" β
"This ......" Yu Qian froze.
"The new emperor of the Ming Dynasty ascended the throne like this, will it be smooth sailing for the new leader of Wara to ascend the throne?" Li Qing said worriedly, "I'm afraid that when the power of Warat is handed over, there will be a big change, and then the Tatars will take advantage of the loophole." βgΓ²ΠΉΠͺ.ΕΞg
Yu Qian frowned, pondered for a long time, and said: "It is true that this situation cannot be ruled out, but the Tatars have already been defeated, especially this time it is a big move that has been held back for several years, and the fight is very miserable, without more than five years of cultivation, it is difficult for the Tatars to recover;
Even if there is turmoil in Waratzhen, Tatar may not be able to accomplish anything in a short time. β
"You can't just look at the Tatars, you have to look at the steppe natives inside the Warat." Li Qing said: "The internal disasters of Warat are not less than those on the outside, and if there is less external pressure, the internal chaos is more likely to occur. β
Yu Qian was silent.
"Is there any good idea, sir?"
"The situation is still unclear, what can be done?" Li Qing smiled bitterly, "I hope I'm too careful, um... When Shi Heng and them come back, they will know when they ask;
On the eve of the departure of the army, I specially instructed Shi Heng to inquire about the situation in Warat by the way, so that he could deal with it next. β
Yu Qian asked: "What if that situation really happens?" β
Li Qing groaned: "As you said, the Tatars can't stand up for the time being, if they really want that, they don't have to worry much, and let them mess up first, and then support and support when the situation is stable;
However, in that case, the road to merge with the grassland will also become much more difficult. β
Yu Qian nodded slowly and sighed, "I hope that situation won't happen." β
Li Qinghu said suspiciously: "Something is wrong with you today, why are you so forward-looking?" β
Yu Qian smiled, took a sip of wine, and said, "Sir, since this year, I feel more and more inadequate, and I am ready to... Ming'er submitted his resignation to the emperor and returned to his hometown. β
Li Qing's eyes froze, and he quickly reached into Yu Qian's wrist.
Yu Qian only felt a flower in front of him, and the next moment, Li Qing had already frowned and said: "You are not sick, but ...... It's time to recuperate. β
Li Qing didn't say anything to keep it, Yu Qian has worked hard for so long, and he has been running around since the Yongle Dynasty, Li Qing wants him to live a comfortable life for a few days.
"When exactly are you leaving?"
"It's up to the emperor." Yu Qian smiled bitterly, "Maybe the emperor won't let me go." β
Li Qing said: "If he doesn't let you go, I'll help you out." β
"Hmm...," Yu Qian raised his glass and said, "I won't be able to stay with Mr. for long, Mr. Jing." β
"Don't say that, take good care of it, it's going to be a long time." Li Qing raised his glass and touched him, "After resigning, don't worry about it, I'm here, there's nothing to worry about, just live your own life." β
"Well, Yu Qian understands." Yu Qian said softly, "It's just bitter sir." β
"It's nothing bitter, I've been here for so many years, and I'm used to it." Li Qing smiled and drank the wine in one gulp.
The two chatted for a long time, and when it was close to evening, Yu Qian got up to say goodbye.
Li Qing lay back on the recliner, becoming more and more lonely, Yu Qian left, and there was no one to talk to in the future.
He is reluctant, but he is even more reluctant to continue to work hard for Yu Qian, Yu Qian has suffered for most of his life, and it is time to rest.
β¦
The next day, Qianqing Palace.
Yu Qian resigned, but Zhu Jianshen did not allow it.
Yu Qian asked again, but Zhu Jianshen still didn't allow it.
Yu Qian asked for three times, but he still didn't get permission.
"Teacher Yu, you are old, but ...... You're in good shape. Zhu Jianshen looked reluctant, "Lian Po still has strength in his sixties, and I don't want the teacher to go to the battlefield, why do you have to leave?" β
"Your Majesty, the minister is really old, and if he stays any longer, I'm afraid it will only drag down the court." Yu Qian said bitterly, "There are many shrewd and capable people in the court, and the ministers have become more and more tired in recent days, and it is quite difficult to deal with government affairs, and the old ministers ...... It's really time to retreat! β
Zhu Jianshen frowned: "That's it, I will give you a month off, recuperate, and then deal with official business." β
"The Emperor's ......"
"That's it." Zhu Jianshen didn't give Yu Qian a chance to invite again, and said, "If one month is not enough, I will be lenient, you don't have to be pressured." β
It is impossible to resign, there are few people who can be used and trusted, and who are loyal, and of course Zhu Jianshen is unwilling to let go.
Yu Qian's influence in the court was very great, and he shared a lot of pressure for Zhu Jianshen, and Zhu Jianshen was grateful to him, but he had to keep him ruthlessly.
"Someone, pass on the imperial doctor!" Zhu Jianshen shouted, and then said with concern, "Teacher, don't be impatient, let the imperial doctor take a look at you later, maybe you can take two doses of medicine?" β
ββ¦β¦ Thank you to the emperor. Yu Qian declined, "The minister is not sick, but he is not tired." β
With Mr. Li here, where can I use the imperial doctor...... Yu Qian was a little helpless, he knew that the emperor was determined not to let him go.
Although it was expected, it was still unavoidably disappointed.
Falling leaves return to the roots, at his age, he really wants to go back to his hometown to recuperate, not to mention Li Qing's pocket, he is very relieved about the government, because he has confidence in Li Qing.
But...... The emperor's order is hard to disobey!
Zhu Jian attached great importance to it, and insisted on pulling Yu Qian and not letting him go, until the imperial doctor finished seeing the illness and prescribed medicine, then he said:
"The teacher is recuperating, so don't worry about official business for now, and I'll see you another day."
Yu Qian hurriedly said: "Don't dare to worry about the emperor, it's okay for the minister." β
"Yes, you are my teacher......" Zhu Jianshen played the emotional card.
~
Seeing Yu Qian walk out of the hall, Zhu Jianshen breathed a long sigh of relief, it was impossible to let Yu Qian go, even if Yu Qian didn't do anything, he couldn't go.
But he didn't let go for long.
In the afternoon, Li Qing came and got straight to the point.
"Why don't you let Yu Qian return to his hometown?"
"I need him." Zhu Jianshen said truthfully.
"But he's old." Li Qing frowned, and said, "Hasn't he done enough for Daming, you have to catch someone and use it to death, right?" β
Zhu Jianshen shouted wronged: "I have given him a vacation, what do you want, if it doesn't work for a month, just two months, two months, and then discuss, why did I say that I would use him until he died, are you unreasonable?" β
Listen, what kind of scumbag quote is this...... Li Qing said patiently: "If the emperor feels sorry for him, then let him return to his hometown and live a comfortable life for a few days." β
"It's also very comfortable here, the prosperity of Jingshi is far beyond his hometown, and besides, I can also ask the imperial doctor to treat and recuperate for him, isn't it?" Zhu Jianshen asked rhetorically.
Li Qing had a cold face: "Change the concept less, people want to return to their roots when they get older, this is human nature, don't you think you are too ruthless?" β
Zhu Jianshen was a little annoyed: "I want to be affectionate everywhere, then this emperor can't stand it, the court situation is so difficult, what do you let me do?"
Yes, I know that it is difficult for him, but how can I not be difficult, and who should I tell about my suffering? β
Tell your Wan Zhen'er...... Li Qing rolled his eyes: "Let him go back, so be it, I'll be diligent." β
"You be diligent...... Zhu Jian thought deeply, nodded and said: "In this way, you should be diligent first, if you are satisfied, I will ......"
He didn't say any more, because Li Qing's eyes were too terrifying.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Zhu Jianshen unconsciously took two steps back.
At this moment, he had a ridiculous thought, feeling that Li Qing was going to beat him.
"Let him go." Li Qing exhaled and said, "He is very worthy of your old Zhu family." β
Zhu Jianshen saw that he had calmed down, and the emperor's momentum hit his whole body again, spurting out.
"Li Qing, you are presumptuous!"
"Huh?" Li Qinggang suppressed the fire, and it ignited all of a sudden, "You say it again?" β
"I ......" Zhu Jianshen was scared again, afraid for no reason," I said...... Li Aiqing, you shouldn't seem to be so offended, right? β
Li Qing's eyes lit up dangerously, and he said lightly: "Approve Yu Qian's old man to return to his hometown, I'm not discussing with you." β
"You threaten me?"
"Then if you think so, even if it is."
"You ......" Zhu Jianshen choked for a moment, and then smiled: "Sir, let's all dissipate our anger, anger makes people lose their minds, this is not good." β
There is also an emperor in Jinling, Zhu Jianshen is really afraid of Li Qing, afraid that Li Qing will make a drama about the emperor telling the old man to return to his hometown.
He's not in power yet.
Li Qing is also quite speechless, if you don't listen to your good words, you have to make people angry, cheap or not!
"Yu Aiqing has worked hard for half his life and has made great contributions, how can I not be considerate of him?" Zhu Jianshen smiled and said, "That's it, when Aiqing takes care of his body, I will allow him to return to his hometown, is this good?" β
Li Qing said helplessly: "Why do you bother, he is not sick at all, he just wants to drag his crippled body back to his hometown to live and finish the last period of his life;
Why can't such a simple wish be granted? β
He ...... He was a loyal servant and a capable minister. Zhu Jianshen said with a bitter face: "I don't want to lose him." β
Li Qing was annoyed: "Loyal ministers and capable ministers have to be used to death?" What bullshit is this! β
"Look at you, why are you annoyed again?" Zhu Jianshen focuses on a 'strong enemy and I am weak', and it sounds good when he speaks, "I am also afraid of a long journey, and Yu Aiqing's body can't bear it." β
Li Qing's face was cold: "Don't provoke my emotions anymore, otherwise I may really be unable to help it, hurry up, you just say whether to approve or not?" β
"I don't want to criticize...... But, but ......" Zhu Jianshen's voice was deformed.
Because Li Qing leaned forward, he had grabbed him by the collar, and his forehead was close to him, and his eyes were ...... Like a sharp sword, it wants to pierce him.
"But... People can be ruthless if they are not grass and trees, I have approved it, and I have approved it......"
Li Qing's hand was loosened, and he arched his hand with a smile: "The emperor is like the virtue of heaven, and the minister has replaced Yu Qian to thank the emperor for his grace." β
"Hmm......" Zhu Jianshen took a big breath and nodded slightly.
"The minister retired."
~
"Huhu ......" Zhu saw that his blood was surging, and it took a quarter of an hour to calm down, and then he was furious:
"Li Qing, old thief, deceive me too much! Fucking bastard! Darn......!!! β
