Chapter 203 The old coach crosses the river (1)
"He must help this, unless he doesn't want to live anymore." Liu Yu closed the report to the war report and hurriedly said, "I'm busy summoning the court to discuss the court, and summon all civil servants and generals above the third rank and above the fifth rank in Chang'an City to Fengcui Palace to agree on the dispatch of troops."
"Send troops? Controversy?" Su Yan couldn't believe his ears, "Master, is that too? It's all night."
"I'm so angry that I have to solve the problem today until tomorrow? Do you want to be the emperor?"
Su Yan was stunned for a moment and said, "I want to!" In fact, it's not his turn to let go now. In history, the former emperor wanted to die unless the next emperor was his son. Su Yan understood this truth and immediately asked Eunuch Wu to go and inform him one by one.
This is destined to be a sleepless night.
Liu Yu returned to Chang'an City and really wanted to pass by his house like Dayu, but he didn't enter. Although he missed his wife very much, the situation was indeed imminent now, and the conspiracy of the vassal kings could be successful at one moment. Losing Tongguan would mean losing the last barrier outside Chang'an City.
All the ministers were almost awakened in a half-sleep state, and then rushed to the palace anxiously. Many people still didn't understand what happened. When they asked in detail, they found out that it was Liu Yu who returned to Chang'an City, and almost all the ministers were relieved. In their eyes, Liu Yu was a freak, with his position rising like a rocket, and his power was getting bigger and bigger. He sent troops outside and thought he could get peace. He came back in just over half a month.
This was the first night court since the founding of the Dashun Dynasty. In the past, even if there were chaos in the borders and localities, the emperor would only summon a small number of confidant ministers to discuss privately. This time, all the ministers were summoned because the preparations were rushed. It was not until 3:00 that all the ministers could arrive. The ministers were talking a lot when they were waiting for the emperor to arrive. The officials were calm today, and there was no war report on the front line to arrive in the capital. The second fire of the Huai King was almost burning. He stationed troops again in Jiangbei, as if waiting for the envoys of various vassal kings to enter Chang'an City to start peace talks with the court.
When the emperor came out with Liu Yu and Xu Xuanzhu, many ministers looked at Liu Yu with hostility. The emperor had people who believed in it. This was usually a sign of a chaotic country, and Liu Yu was indeed not a good person in their seriousness and was a slander.
Right Prime Minister Yuan Bolang had a high position and was very powerful. After performing the court salute, he asked, "I don't know what the emperor is going to call the court tonight?"
Liu Yu and Xu Xuanzhu were already standing before the military generals. Su Yan glanced at Liu Yu. According to Liu Yu's retelling, "I have summoned all the ministers and workers. General Anli Wu He was bribed by the King of Huai and was preparing to kill General Nanyuan, the general of Tongguan, Tongguan Xian and the King of Huai."
The emperor's words surprised the ministers all over the place.
The news came too suddenly, and many ministers had not yet figured it out. General Anli Wu He was the second in charge of Tongguan, and he was sworn brother-in-law of the Southern Yuan general and his brother-in-law. He was a man in the court and did not know how close they had to do, so he was so good that he wore a pair of pants. Now the emperor said that they wanted to fight in the nest and presented Tongguan to the King of Huai. The news was not the military yamen, and that was the secret spy of the Imperial Guard. The matter had not happened yet, how did the Imperial Guard know?
Yuan Bolang asked again: "What does the emperor mean?"
Su Yan said: "I am going to Tongguan in person. I will persuade General Anli Wu He to thank me for my kindness and be loyal to the court."
Just now, the whole audience was silent, but this time, the whole audience was uproaring.
Is the emperor crazy? I know that his subordinates were going to rebel, and not only did they not issue an order to arrest him, but they also wanted to "persuade" himself? That's Tongguan. There are more than 20,000 guards in Tongguan, and the guards are guarding the throat of the eastern part of Guanzhong. If the emperor wanted to attack in the name of appeasement, he would transfer all the soldiers in Chang'an City to accompany him, which would probably not be enough to block the teeth of the Tongguan guards.
"Your Majesty, don't be able to do it!"
Yuan Bolang said a word and hurriedly knelt down and asked to take back Cheng's life, while other civil servants also knelt down and asked.
Yuan Bolang said generously: "The emperor is the foundation of the Great Shun Dynasty. If the emperor leaves Chang'an City and the emperor does not sit in the court, it will be a place for villains to take advantage of the country. The country is in danger! Please think twice and think twice!"
Yuan Bolang asked Jun to take back Cheng Ming, but glanced at Liu Yu. Liu Yu's face changed immediately. He ignored the scene and asked, "The villain in Yuan Xiang's mouth, won't he be the mere general, right?"
Yuan Bolang pointed his hand and said angrily: "Do you know who I am talking about!"
Yuan Bolang believed that if the emperor wanted to leave Chang'an City, it must be Liu Yu's instigation. He couldn't understand the purpose of Liu Yu doing this, but he was sure that this was a conspiracy. Now Liu Yu is powerful and does not want to take advantage of the chaos to plot against the national affairs? He brought the emperor out of Chang'an City, and then he had the final say in Chang'an City, calling the wind and rain... One, two, three, and then the lord of the court was replaced.
Liu Yu smiled and said, "Yuan Xiang, you are too worried. This time the imperial carriage went to Tongguan. Not only would it be with me, but the wife who was here will also go with me. Where should I start with this villain's saying?"
Yuan Bolang was stunned on the spot. Liu Yu's words made him self-defeating. Could it be that he wanted to kill the regency on the road? But if he really wanted to kill the regency, the soldiers and horses in Chang'an City were now mobilized by him. Isn't it a seam to poison the imperial meal? Why do you need to put such a big circle?
Yuan Bolang is a foolish and loyal type, and he is not his good at using conspiracy methods. Now without a think tank, Liu Yu's actions are not something he can guess. But he is sure that Liu Yu has conspiracy.
Liu Yu asked with a smile on his face as he succeeded in conspiracy: "What else does Yuan Xiang have to say?"
"You little boy, who actually encouraged the emperor to Li Chao, isn't you afraid of being scolded by the people of the world?"
Yuan Bolang spoke rudely, and Liu Yu did not think it was offended, and said calmly: "The emperor lives all over the world, and the world is the emperor's world, and the people everywhere they go are the emperor's people. Why do the emperor curse his own people? "
Yuan Bolang was speechless. Once Liu Yu brought out the big truth, he could not answer. Su Bi, who was standing beside him, obviously did not agree with Su Yanli Chao's approach. He rarely stood on Yuan Bolang's side and asked, "General Liu, what do you want to do, why bother to cover up and play in front of the ministers in the palace?"
Su Bi is three months pregnant and her lower abdomen is slightly bulging. Perhaps it is because of this that she cherishes the royal blood relatives. Although she has temporarily become an ally with Liu Yu, she cannot tolerate Liu Yu pushing the emperor and her younger brother to die.
Liu Yu didn't answer, but Su Yan, who was sitting on the dragon throne, said: "No need to say anything about the emperor's sister. I decided to go to Tongguan and I was with Commander Liu. I have been there for not a long time this time, and Commander Liu is guarding me. I am relieved."
Su Bi immediately gave this younger brother a blank look. He still trusted the cunning Liu Wenyan too much.
As she knew, Liu Yu was definitely not a simple person on the surface. He was a gentle sheep on weekdays and turned into a tiger in front of people in a blink of an eye, and became more and more fierce. She used to think that she could eat Liu Yu, but now it seems that she was eaten step by step. If the emperor was still blindly following Liu Yu, he would definitely be taken advantage of by Liu Yu, which would lead to a situation where a mere minister was highly meritorious and overwhelming the master.
"Emperor, why don't you think about it? Or wait until the emperor calms down before discussing?" Seeing that the emperor's attitude was firm, Su Bi had to persuade him tactfully.
Su Yan raised his hand to stop Su Bi and other ministers from continuing to persuade, saying, "You don't have to persuade you anymore. This is my idea and cannot be changed. In addition, I have decided to ask the two to go to Tongguan with me, and there are people around me to take care of you."
Seeing that he could not persuade him, Su Bi had to ask, "I wonder who the emperor ordered to accompany him?"
Su Yan pointed at Yuan Bolang: "One is Yuan Youxiong. The other..." Su Yan pointed at Chai Jin, who was sleepy standing next to Su Bi. "It is Chai Prince Concubine."
"ah?"
Chai Jin looked around and thought he had missed something. When he was sure that the emperor wanted to find him to accompany him, he was not shocked, but instead he was a little happy. What a glorious thing this is. He was despised by others on weekdays, but he didn't expect that the emperor still thought about him at this critical moment and let him accompany him.
"My dear..."
Chai Jin was about to receive the order, but Su Bi pulled him away. Su Bi said with a serious expression: "The Prince Yuan is brave and resourceful, and it is wrong to have a chance to come with him, but my husband's consort... is really stupid. Besides, I am pregnant and I need my husband to take care of him. Please choose someone else."
Chai Jin was suspicious. His wife hated others the most and said that he was stupid, but now the wife himself was also saying that the emperor was looking for someone to accompany him, but not others to look for him. This was a very honorable thing in his opinion, and it was also a recognition of his ability. He couldn't figure out why Su Bi did this.
"No need to say about the Emperor's sister." Su Yanyan said earnestly, "The Emperor's sister is pregnant, and I should have left the Prince Consort to you, but this is a major matter involving the safety of the country and the country. There is no suitable candidate for this matter as the Prince Consort Chai. This matter is decided, and I decided to rush to Tongguan after dawn."
The emperor not only had to hurry to Tongguan, but also set off the next day. This made many people feel panic, and the one who was most worried was Su Bi.
There are many different opinions on whether Chai Jin was "wise and foolish". In her opinion, Chai Jin did not have the ability to pacify the world and dismount the country and ensure stability. After the court discussion, it was all about the arrangements of the emperor and the right minister after they left the court. Li Mi was fully responsible for the city defense, while the security of Chang'an City was governed by Sui Yi, and the government affairs were temporarily taken over by the left minister.
All the ministers thought that the emperor would not take much time to go to Tongguan anyway, so he would come back very much, so he didn't take it seriously.
There is only one thing that is strange. The emperor issued an order to promote an unknown person to the Minister of Revenue. It was Han Sheng, the former Shaoqing of the Management Office of the Commerce Department, and an old man who many people did not know. Now he is in charge of the two major yamen in the court at the same time. The original Minister of Revenue was recruited by the emperor to accompany him, saying that he would be given other benefits when he came back.
Seeing that the court meeting was over, Liu Yu and Xu Xuanzhu were also preparing to go home and give a few words, and Su Bi called Liu Yu.
Liu Yu knew that Su Bi was going to separate from her husband suddenly, or when she was pregnant, she would definitely blame him, but he was ready to bear it. Seeing that Su Bi was throwing her son-in-law aside, Liu Yu just came alone and asked Xu Xuanzhu to wait at the palace gate first.
"What do you mean?" Su Bi said fiercely when she came up.
"This is the emperor's decision, not the intention of the subordinates." Liu Yu said evasively.
