Chapter 48 Going to the Banquet in the Mansion

Yu Qian was very busy. He had just returned to the Ministry of War from Wenyuan Pavilion, and another guest came to the door.

He looked up, and it turned out to be Xu Xuan, the lecturer of the Imperial Academy.

Speaking of Xu Zhen, this person has another name, Xu Youzhen.

Historically, after Zhu Qizhen was captured, the Wala army went south and pointed directly at the capital.At this time, King Zhu Qiyu supervised the country and called a group of ministers to discuss countermeasures.Xu Yu claimed that the astrology had changed, and suggested moving the capital to Nanjing to avoid swordsmen. Then, being scolded by Yu Qian, he was bloody, and even uttered cruel words on the spot, suggesting that those who moved south should be beheaded!

In the end, the main combat faction took the dominant position, and under the leadership of Yu Qian, they won the battle to defend the capital.

Since then, Xu Zhen has been completely reduced to a laughingstock, and he has been unable to be promoted for a long time. After thinking about it, he finally thought of a way to change his name!
It was Xu Zhen who proposed to move south at the beginning, so what does it have to do with me, Xu Youzhen?
Unexpectedly, this method really worked. Since then, this person's official career has been smooth all the way until the restoration of Yingzong, and he directly became the chief assistant of the cabinet by virtue of his success in seizing the door.

As soon as Xu Zhen came in, Yu Qian understood that, needless to say, he must have come for the matter of King Yi.

There is no bottom line in what this person usually does. Seeing Wang Zhen gaining power, he ran to the door to recognize his godfather, which is simply a disgrace to the Qingliu community.

Now that the emperor is deep in the desert, and his life and death are uncertain, it is reasonable for this kind of jumping clown to run to support the king.

To be honest, Yu Qian looked down on this guy from the bottom of his heart, and was about to refuse to see him, when he suddenly thought about it, he might as well take this opportunity to find out.

"Xu Shi said that he came to the Ministry of War in his busy schedule, what advice do you have?"

Xu Yu hurriedly replied: "Master Yu, you are being polite, how can I dare to teach you? I just went to the Qin Tianjian and passed by the Yamen of the Ministry of War. I stopped by to say hello to you."

"Oh, went to Qin Tianjian?"

"Yes, yes!" Xu Yu nodded again and again, and said, "I watched the stars at night and found that Yinghuo had entered Nandou. I was very puzzled, so I went to the Qin Tianjian to ask my colleagues for advice."

"Ying lured into Nandou?" Yu Qian looked at him with a half-smile, and said, "What do you mean?"

"This..." Xu Zhen looked around subconsciously, then leaned forward and whispered, "This is an ominous sign, and it indicates that the emperor will have disaster."

Yu Qian pretended to be mysterious and said: "In this way, doesn't it indicate that the emperor is in trouble?"

"The lower official didn't say anything!" Xu Yu waved his hands again and again, and said, "The lower official just observed a change in the astrology. As for the omen, I dare not speak in vain."

Yu Qian thought for a while, and then said: "Xu Shi said that he is here today, maybe he is not just passing by?"

Xu Yu smiled, and said: "The lower official came here this time to congratulate Mr. Yu!"

"Dao Xi?" Yu Qian knew that this guy had already entered the Tao, so he said calmly, "Where does the joy come from?"

"The edict sent back from the front line by the emperor clearly states that Mr. Yu will be appointed Minister of the Ministry of War and given the title of Governor of the Left. Isn't this a happy event?"

Yu Qian smiled lightly and said: "The emperor was worried about losing the war, so he wrote the edict in advance to prepare for emergencies. Now that our army has won a big victory, Kuang Shangshu is also very good. The position of the Minister of War is still someone else's. Xu Shi said I have accepted someone's kindness."

Xu Yu immediately talked eloquently: "Master Yu, what you said is wrong, Shangshu Kuang is already sixty and five years old this year, how many more years can he do? On the contrary, Sir Yu, you are in your prime, and the position of Shangshu will not come sooner or later. What? Besides, since the emperor only mentions you in the imperial edict, apart from His Royal Highness King Yi, what does this mean? It means that the emperor thinks highly of you! Even if you don’t take over as minister of the Ministry of War for the time being, there are still ministers of the Ministry of Rites and ministers of officials... ...All in all, you are now a big celebrity, even His Royal Highness King Tan..."

Yu Qian asked subconsciously: "What happened to His Royal Highness?"

"His Royal Highness..."

Xu Yu was startled, as if he had noticed something, he smiled and swallowed the second half of the sentence.

Yu Qian was very dissatisfied and said: "Xu Shi said that he doesn't trust someone?"

"What's the matter with Sir Yu?" Xu Yu said hastily, "The meaning of the lower official is that His Royal Highness King Yi regards Sir very highly."

Yu Qian is very annoying these days, just because he opposed the emperor's personal conquest at the beginning, and now the rumors and rumors in the capital, everyone subconsciously pinned it on him.

I was worried that I couldn't find the instigator, now it's all right, and it's delivered to my door!
"It's just..." Yu Qian said with some hesitation on his face, "I don't have a close relationship with His Highness King Tan, I don't know His Highness King Tan...this..."

Xu Yu only felt that his eyes lit up. He was worried that Yu Qian would sternly refuse, but he didn't expect, he didn't expect, he usually looks aloof, but in fact, it's just that!
It's no wonder that the emperor went far to the desert, and there were many bad luck and bad luck. If he supported the king at this time, it would be the work of a dragon. How many people can resist such a temptation?
"Your Excellency don't have to worry about this. Why don't you let me introduce you to you?"

"Listen to what Xu Shi said, and you are very familiar with His Royal Highness King Tan?"

"It's not considered familiar, it's just an occasional relationship on weekdays."

"I see!"

Yu Qian nodded secretly, you are a minister in the court, and you have occasional contacts with the vassal king. If this happened in Hongwu or Yongle years, you would have died a hundred times already.

Xu Yu didn't notice it, but felt very happy, because of that edict, Yu Qian is now a big celebrity, and if he can win this person over, great things will happen!

"Tonight, His Royal Highness King Tan is hosting a banquet at the residence. If Lord Yu can come, His Highness will be very happy."

Yu Qian smiled and waved his hands, and said: "Master Xu, stop joking. I'm just a small servant. There are so many talents in the Palace of Prince Yi. How could Your Highness..."

Before he finished speaking, he only saw an invitation card appearing in front of him.

Holding the invitation in both hands, Xu Yu said, "His Royal Highness Yi said that as long as Lord Yu is willing to show his face, you can talk about anything."

Yu Qian took the invitation card, glanced at it, and then slowly closed it. After a long time, he said: "I would like to ask Xu Shi to tell His Royal Highness, that someone Yu will definitely come to the banquet on time."

Xu Yu smiled knowingly, said nothing, turned and left after saluting.

Yu Qian looked at the invitation on the table, hesitating very much in his heart, wanting to dig out the royal party, this is an excellent opportunity.

However, I was on the cusp of the storm, if I was misunderstood again because of this incident, I would not be able to clean up even if I jumped into the Yellow River.

To go, or not to go?

If you want to go, should you inform the cabinet?
After thinking about it, for the sake of safety, it is better not to notify the cabinet.

Otherwise, if they are seen by those people's eyes and ears, their plans will be ruined.

For the sake of the emperor, for the stability of the country, I will go all out tonight, and the worst thing is that the yellow mud will fall into the crotch. Does it matter what others think?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile wryly, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's all caused by your edict, I can't help myself now!

I only hope that you can return safely, otherwise, the scene of the old Zhu family's uncle and nephew fighting each other will repeat itself again!
 Friendly reminder, the countdown to the return of God of War: 1 day!
