Chapter 113 Yu Qian is still the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty after all
Zhu Jianji said: "Today I invite Shaobao to Dongnuang Pavilion for one thing. I hope Shaobao can teach Hang Min and Hang Shangshu more. The main reason is that there are people in Gyeonggi who have been restless recently, and unexpected situations may occur. At that time, we need
The twenty-six guards of the pro-army army are dispatched."
Yu Qian said: "The humble minister has become an official and will no longer be in charge of the military department."
He knows about the Cai Temple.
After becoming an official, he spent his whole day reading, writing, fishing, planting flowers and walking birds. He was aware of the important affairs of the court, but he was not a royal guard, so he didn't know that someone would make a last-ditch effort for the Baozong.
Of course, I guessed it.
He also said: "The mobilization of the twenty-six guards of the pro-army army, Hang Min and Liu Jue, the two ministers of the Ministry of War, are just internal matters. Your Highness's words really make Wei Chen don't know how to reply. Does Your Highness still think that Wei Chen is secretly controlling the military power?
?”
Zhu Jianji smiled and said, "After the twenty-six guards of the pro-army army went to Zhuozhou to suppress the rebellion, they have not returned for a long time. Isn't this Shaobao's intention?"
Yu Qian said firmly, "No!"
Who am I to be humble?
How could he commit such a rebellious act that threatened the Ming Dynasty royal family?
Zhu Jianji was doubtful.
In fact, if it were anyone else, Zhu Jianji wouldn't believe it. After all, Zhu Jianji still has to inherit the fine tradition of the emperor being suspicious. But it was Yu Qian who said this, so he can half believe it.
He stopped beating around the bush and said directly: "Let's not mention the matter of the twenty-six guards staying in Zhuozhou for now. When it is found out later, I will let the people behind the scenes bear the wrath of the king."
After a pause, he said: "Jinyiwei noticed that suspicious people were entering Gyeonggi one after another."
Yu Qian suddenly realized, "Someone wants to rob the emperor?"
Zhu Jianji nodded, "That's probably what I mean."
Yu Qian frowned and thought for a while, then asked: "What do you think, Your Highness?"
Zhu Jianji smiled and said: "My Ming Dynasty was founded by Taizu, and the country's fortunes were prosperous. Taizong conquered Mobei in five times and leveled Jiaozhi in Nanping. It can be said that it was a prosperous age. Under the rule of Renxuan, it is still prosperous. Even though our emperor's civil fort was as powerful as the two emperors of Song Dynasty, Huiqin
The legacy of Jingnan is still there, but my father worked hard to govern with benevolence and rejuvenate the country. But if the emperor leaves Beijing and establishes a new world, will the Ming Dynasty be able to withstand such a catastrophe?"
Yu Qian remained silent.
He understood what His Highness the Crown Prince meant.
The emperor cannot be allowed to leave Beijing.
But if the emperor does not leave the capital, he will die.
How does Yu Qian choose?
Zhu Jianji suppressed his smile, stared at Yu Qian, and said: "I know Yu Shaobao's loyalty, but foolish loyalty is not advisable. I dare to ask Yu Shaobao, who is more important, the hundreds of millions of people in the world, or the life of Baozong himself?"
?”
Yu Qian didn't know how to answer.
In fact, he had an answer in his mind.
What's important?
Of course, the people are more important. If the emperor leaves Beijing, the only way out is to go to the south, first establish a small court, and then attack Nanjing to compete with Beijing.
In this way...
The Ming Dynasty is like falling into the abyss.
Zhu Jianji did not force Yu Qian to express his position immediately. Yu Qian's silence was actually his answer.
He said: "It is estimated that in a few days, there will be a change. Someone from the six central departments will inevitably jump out. After the situation calms down, Yu Shaobao will be asked to re-enter the official position to assist Zuo's father."
Of course it cannot be the Minister of War.
But the Minister of the Ministry of Industry and the Minister of Rites are still acceptable.
Yu Qian took a deep breath and said, "I obey the order."
No need to hesitate anymore.
How could Yu Qian not know the importance of billions of people and an emperor? As a minister who single-handedly pulled the Ming Dynasty out of the abyss, Yu Qian would never tolerate the emperor pushing the Ming Dynasty into the abyss again.
During the restoration, Yu Qian could watch from the sidelines.
But establishing another court and putting the people in dire straits went beyond Yu Qian's bottom line.
Yu Qian stood up and said, "Wei Chen, please leave."
Zhu Jianji looked at Yu Qian's back, feeling so cool in his heart.
Yu Qian is still the same Yu Qian.
It is understandable and acceptable to just watch from the sidelines when seizing the door.
But when the country is in crisis, he will still come forward.
The Great Wall of Ming Dynasty, he deserves it!
Now that the military power issue has been resolved, it depends on whether Lu Zhong's Jin Yiwei can dig out any effective clues. In addition, Zhu Jianji is a little confused, who is behind the scenes?
It is definitely not an easy task to go to the south and establish a new court.
Need support from the southern gentry.
Otherwise, you will have no money or food, and you will build a useless court.
And the vassal king in the south...
Who has the confidence to take such risks?
No!
The vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty were all pigs, who had been eliminated by Taizong long ago. For example, the king of Tang Dynasty, Zhu Qiongjin, was rich, but he had no soldiers or power, so he was just a rich prince.
Now that Zhu Qiyu is the orthodoxy in the world, even if these vassal kings support Baozong and establish a separate court, they will not have any substantial improvement in status and power, so they should not be able to deal with such thankless things.
Who else could it be?
Zhu Jianji thought hard but couldn't figure it out.
Because there is no suspect at all!
We can only rely on Lu Zhong's royal guards.
…
…
What Zhu Jianji couldn't understand, some people could understand without even thinking.
The Office of the Minister of Rites.
Veteran Hu Xi didn't go to Diang Maoying class today.
Feeling unwell.
But in fact, it’s nothing wrong, I feel in great shape.
If you don't go to work, you have something to worry about.
After the New Year, there was an undercurrent in the capital, and Hu Hui vaguely heard some rumors, especially at the Huitong Hall under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites. Among the foreign guests received during the Spring Festival this year, there were several big shots from the north.
Among them was Jianzhou Jurchen Li Manzhu.
Not surprising.
In the early days of Li Manzhu's command of the Jianzhou Guard, he was loyal to the Ming court and took the initiative to return the Liaodong Jurchens who fled to Jianzhou. They were rewarded by the court and became the main force in the Ming Dynasty's "ruling the barbarians with barbarians".
Li Manzhu conscientiously fulfilled his "border guarding responsibility" to the Ming court. When he learned that the Uliangha tribe wanted to invade Liaodong, he immediately reported it to the court, allowing the Liaodong border army to effectively curb the Uliangha tribe's intrusion.
The imperial court paid great attention to Li Manzhu's loyalty. When the Jurchens in Jianzhou suffered from famine, the imperial court ordered the Liaodong capital to promptly allocate grain and rice based on Li Manzhu's request.
In December of the ninth year of Zhengtong, at the request of Li Manzhu, his son was granted the title of Qianhu, and Li Manzhu was promoted to the governor of Jianzhou Guard, Tongzhi, and ordered him to monitor the actions of the Mongolian tribes and, if the time was appropriate, respond to the Mongolian tribes that invaded Liaodong.
They were killed in order to repay the Ming Dynasty.
However, the Mongolian tribes were so powerful that the Jianwei Jurchens could not compete with them. Their own safety was difficult to guarantee, so why did they kill the enemies?
In the first year of Jingtai, Li Manzhu was forced by the threat of force from Mongolia and participated in the plundering activities of the Mongolian tribes.
In the sixth year of Jingtai, the Ming court issued an edict, ordering his son Li Gunaha to succeed his father and serve as governor and magistrate, in charge of Jianzhou Wei affairs, and dismissed Li Manzhu from his post.
In the autumn of the eighth year of Jingtai, Li Manzhu led his troops to approach Liaodong, hoping to take advantage of Fang Ying and Chen You's unrest to fish.
As a result, Fang Ying and others' rebellion was louder than rain.
The imperial court was very dissatisfied with the Jurchens.
That is to say, there were too many things going on at the moment, His Majesty was kind-hearted, and the treasury had no money, so he did not send troops to investigate the crime. Instead, it was Taizong or Xuanzong. At this time, the Ming Dynasty was already dispatching troops to encircle and suppress Li Manzhu.
Li Manzhu is also smart.
Knowing that the power of various Mongolian ministries was now low, Ming Dynasty had enough strength to deal with them, so he hurriedly came to Beijing during the Spring Festival to see His Majesty, with the intention of repairing bilateral relations.
But when Li Manzhu was in Gyeonggi, an important central official went to see Li Manzhu, and the two had a long secret conversation.
This incident escaped the eyes of Jinyi Wei Tiqi, but it could not be hidden from Hu Hui, because the Huitong Hall was originally a subordinate department of the Ministry of Rites. Hu Tong had been running the Ministry of Rites for many years, and he had single-handedly guided most of the officials in the Ministry of Rites.
Just today, there was an urgent report from the northern border that the Jurchen troops were moving.
Very weird.
It's not summer yet, so it's not time to disturb the border.
Hu Hui then thought of the minister who went to have a secret talk with Li Manzhu. He was from a poor family in the south and was a Jinshi during the Yongle period. He had made a lot of money in the court over the years, and his family was already well-known in the local area.
If the emperor leaves Beijing, it will be to the south.
south……
Who is there in the south?
Hu Xin suddenly thought of a possibility, but it was just a conjecture and there was no evidence.
Hu Xi was helpless.
Because he is just a minister of the six departments, not a commander of the Imperial Guard.
But Hu Xi suddenly thought of someone.
Yu Qian!
Great Wall of Ming Dynasty Yu Qian, a person you can absolutely trust when you are in desperate situation! This chapter has been completed!
