Chapter seven hundred and ten: Yu Shaobao collapsed
As the emperor's words fell, Huaien took the order without hesitation and went to announce the decree. All the ministers in the palace suddenly panicked.
Although they had thought that the emperor might be furious, they did not expect that the emperor would be so decisive.
It is true that the life and death of the Duke Chengguo is not important to them.
However, don't forget that at this point, many things can no longer be concealed. Zhu Yi is not a fool. If it is said that he will die in this memorial, then he will definitely not do it.
Since he did this, it means that he still has some reliance.
You must know that the memorial just now has the joint names of many nobles, which shows that the existence and content of this memorial cannot be hidden from the court at all.
It is not difficult to remove Zhu Yi's official position and the title of Duke Chengguo.
However, if the reason for doing this is that Zhu Yi accepted this memorial to ask for an early date for the East Palace to leave the cabinet, then there would be a problem.
Pay attention to one word in everything!
Although Cheng Guo Gong Zhu Yong was guilty in the battle at Yao'erling, the imperial court had already punished Cheng Guo Gong, suppressed Zhu Yong's funeral rituals, and delayed allowing Zhu Yi to seize the title, although there were still ministers in the court who thought it was inappropriate to do so.
If it is not enough, I advocate that the title of Duke Cheng should be removed, but not in this way.
Again, in today's court, asking the prince to leave the cabinet as soon as possible is the trend of political correctness. Even the emperor cannot change this.
Zhu Yi's memorial indeed angered the emperor. If it was just a small punishment or a big warning, even if Zhu Yi was allowed to return to the palace to reflect on himself, that would be it.
However, if he were to be demoted or demoted, this punishment would be too severe.
You must know that the people in the court who like to give advice the most are not noble children like Zhu Yi, but civil servants like them.
From the six ministers to the ordinary censors and officials, it was inevitable that they would have conflicts with the emperor on government affairs on a daily basis, and even make outright remarks.
If this precedent is set, and in the next memorial, they will be demoted to common people, then who can bear this?
Therefore, looking at Huai En, who was about to declare the decree with his head downcast, a group of ministers immediately stepped forward. On the cabinet side, Zhu Jian was in front, followed by a few people. He took two steps to the right, just in front of the cabinet.
Wynn was on his way out of the palace.
On the other side, Chen Yi, Chen Xun and others followed and said.
"Your Majesty, calm down and don't be impulsive!"
Seeing this situation, the emperor seemed to be even more angry. He glanced around and said.
"Why, are you going to resist the decree?"
These words were said so harshly that all the ministers hesitated slightly. However, at this time, Yu Qian, the No. 1 member of the Fearless Death Team, would definitely rush forward.
This time, he naturally lived up to everyone's expectations. He frowned and stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, if Zhu Yi is really going to cut off his official position and title because he advised Your Majesty to let the East Palace leave the cabinet as soon as possible, then I really cannot agree with this edict!"
Although these words may add fuel to the fire, in this situation, it is true that only Yu Qian dares to say such words.
I saw him exhaling slightly and cupping his hands.
"Your Majesty, since the founding of our country, no one has been convicted for his words. What's more, General Zhu advised Your Majesty to let the prince leave the cabinet as soon as possible. This is to save the country. Although there are inappropriate words and deeds, if Your Majesty blames you for it,
This is really not what the Holy King did!"
"Yu Qian, you are brave!"
On the throne, everyone could see with the naked eye that the emperor's face turned red. For a moment, he was so angry that he could not speak. After a while, the emperor said.
"When did I say that it was because he wrote this memorial that he wanted to deprive the Duke of Chengguo of his title? In the battle of Yao'erling, Zhu Yong lost his army and humiliated the country, and the emperor was in trouble. The officers and soldiers suffered heavy casualties. Shouldn't the title be deprived?
?"
This cannot be said to be unreasonable, but in today's situation, it is still a bit far-fetched, let alone for someone like Yu Qian who has never rubbed sand in his eyes.
At that moment, Yu Shaobao retorted almost without hesitation.
"Your Majesty, the crime of Duke Cheng has been debated in the court for a long time. If your Majesty really wants to find out the inside story of this battle, he should order all the ministers to discuss it together and make a conclusion before handling it. However, as General Zhu said just now in the palace
, the battle at Yao'erling and the current departure of the East Palace are two completely unrelated things."
"At this time, you are using the Battle of Yao'erling as an excuse to remove the title of the Duke of Chengguo. It is really because you are a sinner. This is not something that can be confused. Your majesty is saintly and benevolent, and you will not do such a thing to deceive yourself and others!"
These words are explicit and impolite, almost saying that no matter what excuses you find, Your Majesty, you cannot conceal the nature of public revenge and private revenge.
At that moment, he was very angry with the emperor. However, before the emperor could say anything, Yu Qian still felt that he was not enough. He also took off his official hat and knelt down in the tunnel.
"If Your Majesty insists on removing the title of Duke Chengguo at this time, I would like to resign from the official position together and return to the countryside. Please allow Your Majesty's permission!"
"boom!"
The sound of palms slapping on the case was heard, and everyone looked up, only to see the emperor standing up suddenly, glaring at Yu Qian below, grabbing the memorial beside him, smashing it straight on the ground, and yelling angrily.
"Yu Qian, you dare to threaten me, do you really think that I don't dare to remove you too?"
"I dare not. Your Majesty is the lord of the world. There is nothing wrong with taking whatever you ask for. I never dare to threaten Your Majesty. However, as a minister, it is my fault to be unable to advise the Holy Lord."
Facing the emperor's angry shouting, Yu Qian seemed to be angry and said in a deep voice.
"I am in the court, but I can't stop your majesty from doing evil things. Naturally, I have no shame in standing in the court anymore!"
"you!"
The situation became more and more out of control. The emperor was shaking with anger, pointing at Yu Qian, and was so angry that he could not speak.
The ministers present did not expect that the situation would develop like this in such a short moment.
Among so many people, only Yu Shiyue could barely understand Yu Qian's mood at this time.
It should be said that Yu Qian was a little impulsive today!
Normally, Yu Qian would not be like this.
However, perhaps it was during this period that the emperor's status in Yu Qian's heart became more and more noble. Therefore, when the emperor imposed such a severe punishment just because Zhu Yi said something inappropriate, Yu Qian could not accept it more and more.
Yu Shiyue believes that after this time, Yu Qian will definitely regret his impulsiveness at this time. Now, the reorganization of the army has just started. From a rational point of view, it is okay to speak for Zhu Yi. However, because of the declining Chengguo Palace,
It was really too much to have such a quarrel with the emperor that he had to resign.
If the emperor is really angry and takes action, then it will be a heavy blow to both the court and the government that is about to start rectifying the military and garrison.
Again, the usual Yu Qian would not do this, but people have emotions, so Yu Shiyue can understand what Yu Qian is doing now.
However, even if they don't understand this, at least the ministers present are aware of Yu Qian's importance in the court situation.
Therefore, seeing that Yu Qian was so angry that he even said that he would resign, the elders present became more and more anxious and hurriedly began to comfort them. Suddenly, several sincere voices sounded in the Wenhua Hall...
