Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 7 The Proposal of Moving to the South
Zhu Qiyu's eyes flashed, looking at Jin Ying with a bit of approval and a bit of complexity at the same time.

After all, there are still many things that have not changed.

Although the occasions are different, whether it is a past life or this life, the scenes are generally the same.

In a previous life, this Xu Wei also proposed to move to the south. Just like now, Jin Ying was the first to stand up against it.

In all fairness, Xu Wei's idea of ​​moving to the south at this time is not entirely unreasonable.

For decades after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, the emperors of successive dynasties were all uncertain about the position of the capital.

Although by the time of the first emperor and the present, both in name and in real power, the status of Beijing's capital was completely determined.

However, it should be noted that today, the decree officially made Beijing the capital and Nanjing as the companion capital, but it has only been six years of orthodoxy, and it has only been eight years since now.

There are precedents for the tossing and fussing of several generations of previous emperors. It is normal for Xu Wei to have such an idea.

The second is the current reality.

Although Yu Qian gave everyone a booster just now, how much this amount needs to be considered.

After all, the army of more than 20 was defeated, and the capital now has less than [-] troops, which is not a very optimistic situation.

Of course, this is an obvious reason.

Zhu Qiyu tried to think from Xu Wei's perspective.

It can be seen from past experiences.

This person is famous, full of courage, and will do anything for fame and fortune.

Just imagine, what is the current situation?
The emperor was captured, the army was destroyed, the defense of the capital was empty, and the situation could be described as perilous.

At this time, the proposal to move to the south may be criticized, but at the same time, it may also become a hero to save the society from danger.

And now it is Empress Dowager Sun who is in charge of the capital, and she will add another king.

The current empress dowager came from a humble background. She was originally a woman in the deep palace.

But when it comes to courage, it is incomparable with the noble Taizong Empress Xu and Renzong Empress Zhang.

Sudden with this catastrophe, although he seemed calm on the surface, he must have been panicked in his heart.

As for King Yu, he has always been submissive, and he is very cowardly in the hearts of courtiers. In such a situation, he must be terrified in his heart.

Although moving to the south may seem a bit embarrassing, it is a safe way to go.

Moreover, there are precedents for the previous emperors, and it is not a special loss of face.

At least from Xu Wei's point of view, the proposal to move south at this time has a high success rate.

Once he succeeds, he will be a great hero in bringing the community to the fore.

What's more, at the beginning, the empress dowager said that she can speak freely in the discussion, and she will be scolded at most if she makes a mistake.

In other words, give it a go!
When it is done, it is a step ahead.

Wrong, at least not guilty of it.

But what he didn't think of anyway was.

He expected that Yu Qian, who would be the most objectionable, had yet to speak.

As an internal minister, Jin Ying stood up and spoke so sternly.

It stands to reason that Jin Ying is a minister in the palace, although in the name of the eunuch of the lijian, he can intervene in government affairs.

But shouldn't he be of one mind with the Queen Mother?
As for the queen...

Xu Wei secretly glanced at Empress Dowager Sun's expression, and just saw that she was also a little puzzled and looked at Jin Ying.

So relax a little.

It seems that he guessed correctly, the Queen Mother had this idea in mind.

But at the same time, Xu Wei also felt extremely puzzled.

Since he can guess the Queen Mother's mind.

As an official in the palace, it is impossible for Jin Ying to not know the thoughts of the Queen Mother, so why is she so fiercely opposed?
Xu Hao couldn't figure it out for a while, and was stunned by Jin Ying's momentum, and he was stunned on the spot for a while.

Zhu Qiyu sat on the side, took Xu Wei's performance into his eyes, and roughly guessed what he was thinking.

It should be said that Xu Wei's approach is not wrong.

There are precedents to follow, and the situation is forced, and he cleverly entrusts the sky, which is considered a face.

but……

The most feared thing in everything is these two words.

Zhu Qiyu had to say.

Now Xu Wei is still too tender.

And Xu Youzhen, who planned the change to seize the door in the future, is not in the same rank at all.

After all, he had only been watching politics in the Hanlin Academy not long ago, and he had not really participated in government affairs.

So of course, he can't really look at the problem from the perspective of Jin Ying, who is deeply involved in political affairs.

Xu Wei only thought that he had considered all aspects, but he didn't know that with just a few words of his own, he almost offended everyone in the hall...

Following Jin Ying's loud shout, the atmosphere in the hall became tense and intense.

The first person to stand up was the Minister of Rites, Hu Yi, who was also a very qualified elder. He had been an official since the Jianwen period and was deeply trusted by Emperor Taizong.

As we all know, it was Emperor Taizong who first proposed to make Beijing the capital.

"This matter is absolutely unacceptable. His Majesty Emperor Taizong Wen set the capital in Beijing, and all the tombs and ancestral temples of the previous emperors in the Ming Dynasty are located here. This shows the heart of His Majesty Taizong. Life?"

Hu Yu's words were relatively less intense than Jin Ying's, but the weight was not the same.

Not to mention that the reason he put forward was to violate Taizong's last orders, and his status as an old man should not be ignored.

Although it is said that the head of the Hundred Officials is the official of the Ministry of Officials, Otsuka Zaiwangzhi.

However, in addition to the Minister of Rites, Hu Xun also had a very special identity, that is, one of the five auxiliary ministers ordered by the late emperor.

Although he is 74 years old, he has rarely interfered in court affairs these years.

But as the three Yangs withered away, the British public did not know whether to live or die.

He is the only one left in the auxiliary minister who is still in the court today.

It's fine if he doesn't speak.

Whenever he opens his mouth, the weight is no less than that of Wang Zhi, the head of the Ministry of Officials.

This is Xu Wei's first mistake!
Xu Wei was eager to make contributions, but he never thought of one thing.

That is to say, among the surviving bigwigs in the court, most of them were promoted by His Majesty Taizong and the previous emperor, and they were all staunch supporters of Beijing's capital.

Don't say that it is only in the heart of the Queen Mother Sun, there may be so little signs.

Even if the real Son of Heaven wants to promote this matter, it may not be easy.

Although the situation is special now, the move of the capital involves all aspects.

It is not something that Empress Dowager Sun or Zhu Qiyu can decide in one word.

The second person to stand up was Chen Yi, the censor of the left capital of the Duchayuan. This old man was also an old minister of Taizong.

Although it was not reused until the time of the late emperor, the attitude was also very clear.

"The minister agrees, this matter needs to be taken seriously, the capital is the foundation of the world, and every move is a major event, not to mention the ancestral tombs, temples and palaces are all in the capital, the warehouses of the warehouses, civil and military officials, and thousands of people are also in the capital. Abandon it."

Chen Yi's words were considered from a relatively rational and gentle perspective.

More is to emphasize the importance of the capital and the difficulty of moving the capital.

After all, since Emperor Taizong set the capital in Beijing, although the imperial court in the times of Emperor Renzong and Xuanzong has been repeated, but there has been no practical action.

Therefore, the construction of Beijing as the capital has been in progress.

Today, Beijing has become a real capital in a practical sense.

Want to move the capital, easier said than done?
The last person who came out to speak was the one Xu Wei felt that he should oppose the move to the south at first, Yu Qian, Minister of War.

After all, as an official of the Ministry of War, it is not easy to open up and retreat.

What's more, Yu Qian has such a tough temperament, and Yu Qian's attitude was evident when he counted the soldiers earlier.

Yu Shilang naturally did not live up to Xu Hao's expectations, and said: "The situation is so critical now, and the plan now is to quickly summon the world's soldiers and horses to guard the capital, and those who move south should be killed!"

The word "slash" came out, and suddenly the hall became a little murderous.

Although he knew that this was just Yu Qian's attitude, the court could not have killed him because of such a sentence, but Xu Wei still couldn't help but sweat on his forehead.

Because he finally realized that he may have made a huge mistake.

Although he didn't know what was wrong, four people stood up one after another and expressed their opposition to Nan Qian. No matter how stupid he was, he knew that he was already the target of public criticism.

Before he could think about it, Xu Wei immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying.

"Our Lady forgives your sins, and the ministers do not dare to abandon the ancestral temples and mausoleums, but the soldiers have a word, the warriors, before they think about victory, worry about defeat, and the ministers are in a panic, so I have this statement, I hope the Virgin Mary will be loyal to the country. Forgive your sins."

At this time, Chen Xun, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, also spoke.

"What Yu Shilang and all the ministers said were all the words of loyalty to the country, and the ministers also thought it was true. However, when my Daming encountered this disaster, the court and the opposition would inevitably be in turmoil, and the people would inevitably be frightened and suspicious. , I am excusable, and I still ask the Virgin Mary and King Yu to forgive him."

After all, they belonged to the same bloodline of Hanlin, so if they could help, Chen Xun had given him a step.

When it comes to political discussions, it is difficult for Empress Dowager Sun to speak easily, not to mention that she is still confused now.

But with the steps that Chen Xun handed over, she also went down.

"You don't have to do this, Aijia said before. You can say whatever you want, and you are not guilty. Mr. Xu, please get up."

It should be said that the attitude of the Queen Mother Sun is still relatively good.

Speaking of which, she was actually a little depressed at this time.

In the first place, it was indeed she who let everyone speak freely, but when Xu Wei opened her mouth like this, she was targeted by everyone.

Second, although she was reluctant to admit it, Empress Dowager Sun was still a little moved by Xu Wei's suggestion of moving south.

After all, the current situation is really not optimistic.

Empress Dowager Sun lived in the deep palace for a long time, and did not know much about military affairs. She only felt that the army of more than [-] had been defeated, and now she had less than [-] fighting strength.

But so many people were unanimously opposed, and she could only follow the trend.

Xu Wei didn't know what the Empress Dowager Sun thought.

All he knew was that he barely escaped the catastrophe.

Getting up and standing back in the corner, Master Xu comforted himself.

At least, the queen mother still understands him, and it is not a waste of adventure.

Just looking around and seeing that all the ministers sneered at him, I couldn't help but feel a sense of wanting to cry without tears.

This court situation is too difficult!
If you are a little careless, you don't know which pit you stepped on.

If nothing else, he still doesn't know what he did wrong in the current situation, how did he become the target of public criticism?
But the debate continues.

Empress Dowager Sun knew the rules of the court, and naturally she would not be as stunned as Xu Wei.

Although there are several ministers' words, the matter is already settled, but after all, Zhu Qiyu still has the title of supervising the country.

So Empress Dowager Sun asked, "What does King Yu think?"
