Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 440

Not only Zhu Qiyu, but also Yu Shiyue who was standing aside was stunned for a while.

As Yu Qian's old friend, his feeling is especially obvious.

In fact, Yu Shiyue has long been aware of this.

Around the time after the Civil War, Yu Qian was ordered in the face of danger, and was relied on by the emperor as an important task. His reputation in the court became more and more prosperous.

But the more so, the less Yu Qian becomes like Yu Qian.

The Yu Tingyi he knew had aspirations for the country and a national mind. Even if things that he felt were wrong, even if they were not within the scope of his jurisdiction, he was always outspoken. He never looked back and doubted himself.

At the same time, although his nature is upright, Yu Qian is not a person who does not understand contingencies. The way of military art is also applicable in the struggle of the court.

Yu Qian was able to get to this point at a young age. If he had only relied on "uprightness", he would have been suppressed long ago.

But during this period of time, Yu Qian has become a little worried, cautious and even sometimes, his actions make Yu Shiyue feel a little contradictory and vacillating.

First, Yu Qian stopped talking about other affairs except military and political affairs, and then he repeatedly contradicted the emperor, as if he had become a stunned young man.

Yu Shiyue felt that the reaction of Yu Qian and the emperor was a little too extreme for the last time when the general officer of the recruiting Miao was replaced.

But many things, even with old friends, are not suitable for discussion.

Yu Shiyue knew that there must be something that made Yu Qian get into the horns again.

Although he wanted to help, unless Yu Qian said it himself, it was difficult for him to ask about this kind of thing.

But now, he could clearly feel it.

Yu Qian, who showed his sharpness and high spirits, seemed to be back again!
Once again, he became the focus of everyone's eyes, and he felt doubtful, puzzled, or hostile eyes cast from all directions.

Yu Qian was still calm, staring at the three missionaries below, and said.

"Chen Zongxian asked just now, why didn't the mission make a decision after consulting the imperial court, but why do you need to ask for instructions?"

As always, his words were like knives, and Yu Qian's voice was stern.

"After the Taishanghuang went north hunting, he also sent documents in the name of the Taishanghuang many times to Daming, asking for money, gold and silver, and even land."

"The imperial court has issued an edict long ago, and the emperor's imperial edict cannot be trusted. Even if the edict of the Supreme Emperor is delivered, it is also a false edict and must not be followed."

"This edict has been announced to all the border areas since the civil engineering works, and the imperial court and the diplomatic corps don't know this edict?"

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Fu and the others turned pale.

Yu Qian's words are disintegrating their last support from the root.

Things have developed to the present, and the only amulet they have left is the four words "sacred destiny".

But now, Yu Qian is directly saying that the orders of the Supreme Emperor who is in the captive camp are not holy orders at all!

The officials in the palace were stunned for a moment, and then there was a burst of noisy discussion.

The edict that Yu Qian said did exist.

But that was after the Civil War, in order to prevent the pretext of using the name of the Supreme Emperor to knock down the pass and seize the city, so the imperial edict was announced to the frontier generals.

However, now that the Oirat army has retreated, there is no one in the court who mentions this edict again.

But I never thought that Yu Qian would turn it out at this time.

So here comes the question, since the great war is over, does this edict really count?

That's the key!
Having figured out this verse, the officials in the palace, especially the ministers above the third rank, looked at Yu Qian with a bit of inexplicable meaning in their eyes.

They were more or less aware of Yu Qian's attitude towards welcoming back the Supreme Emperor.

But now, what is Yu Qian doing?He is denying the legal rationality of the Supreme Emperor's decree!
The meaning behind this is extraordinary.

Is this Yu Shaobao, whom the government and the public admire, finally going to really set foot on the boat of the emperor?
The ministers have different thoughts and discussions.

On Wuchen's side, many people couldn't sit still.

Zhang Min spoke first.

"Your Majesty, it was a wartime when I first gave the order to the frontier generals, and because it was also deceitful, it is difficult for my court to discern whether it is really the order of the Supreme Emperor, so this party rejects all orders."

"Now that the war is over, and Yuan Bin is a confidant of the Supreme Emperor, he didn't pass on false orders. If he doesn't follow them, would he be rebelling against the orders? Therefore, I think that Yu Shaobao's words are too biased."

Immediately afterwards, Jiao Jing couldn't help but speak, saying.

"That's right, Your Majesty, the so-called king wants his ministers to die, and his ministers are unfaithful if they don't die. Although the Supreme Emperor is in the north, he is still the king of our Ming Dynasty. He first told the frontier generals not to follow the false edict, but Yuan Bin came to the envoy in person." Tuan's decree is not a so-called false edict, so how can we not obey it?"

The legal rationale of the Supreme Emperor's decree is the common interest of the British government and the queen mother's party.

When it came to this point, no matter how big the rift was, the two sides agreed to stand together again.

"Ah"

Amidst the chaotic discussion, a sneer suddenly came out, and everyone followed the prestige.

But saw Wang Wen, Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials striding out, came to the hall, and sneered at Zhang Xiang and Jiao Jing.

"Isn't it a false edict? Could it be that in the eyes of the two of you, only the edicts that were forged first are called false edicts?"

As a well-known sharp-tongued and fearless man in the court, Mr. Wang has always been famous for his courage to speak, and this time is no exception.

Faced with the hesitation of the ministers, Wang Tianguan turned around and shouted sharply.

"During the previous war, the Supreme Emperor personally visited the city of Xuanfu, and the edicts were switched on and off. How many city guards heard it with their own ears. Could it be that it is not a false edict, so they must be obeyed?"

"Based on this, if the Supreme Emperor wants to sacrifice the capital and cede Xuan Da to protect himself, should we obey the imperial edict and give up our ancestral business in order to please foreigners?"

There was silence in the hall, and all the officials couldn't help swallowing.

This lunatic Wang really dares to say it!
In just a moment, the hall was boiling again, and countless censors stood up and said.

"Master Tianguan, do you know what you are talking about?"

"Your Majesty, Wang Shangshu made false comments on the Emperor and disrespected the Emperor. Please punish him."

"Presumptuous, how could the emperor be like this? Wang Shangshu's speculation of Shangyi is really arrogance."

In contrast, the civil servants on the side were a little helpless.

I don't know why, whenever the matter of the Supreme Emperor is involved, this lord of heaven can always cause the siege of the officials, which is also a different skill.

But this time, what he said really went too far.

After all, the Supreme Emperor is the Supreme Emperor. It's one thing to think in your heart, but it's a problem to say it.

If Wang Wen could be allowed to offend the Supreme Emperor in this way today, then in the future if courtiers follow suit and offend the emperor, the court will be in chaos.

So, looking at each other, Chen Yi, the censor of Zuodu, stepped forward and said.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Wang Shangshu lost his manners in front of him, talked about the emperor indiscriminately, and spoke inappropriately. I ask you to punish him for one month and stop him for three days to reflect on his mistakes as a punishment."

This is considered to be a step up.

Zhu Qiyu was sitting on the throne, looking at Wang Wen's angry look, feeling a little helpless for a while.

It was a joy to say these words, but after finishing speaking, Zhu Qiyu should be punished or punished.

Gently nodding his head, Zhu Qiyu raised his face and said.

"Zunzo, Wang Shangshu's words were inappropriate, he was fined for one month, and he was confined to the mansion for three days to think about his mistakes. After that, he played right in front of the palace, and he had to be cautious in his words and deeds."

Wang Wen didn't respond at all, he cupped his hands to accept the order, and returned to the original place.

Although he withdrew, it was hard for people to refute what he said.

With this episode, the atmosphere in the court has quietly changed...
