Times make heroes.
Zhu Qiyu seemed to have caught a glimpse of Yu Qian's meteoric rise to 90,000 miles.
"Can."
"Kuang Ye, Minister of the Ministry of War, died in the battle at Tumubao. During his tenure as Minister of the Ministry of War, he was conscientious, fair and strict."
"Now is a troubled autumn and a time of crisis. There is a shortage of ambitious people and capable manpower to turn the tide. I would like you to take over as Minister of War and take charge of the defense of the capital."
"Servant Yu, do you dare to take it?"
There is really no choice.
It seemed that others around him did not have Yu Qian's determination to move forward.
At this time, there must be no room for those who are left and right to be responsible for the defense of the capital.
Otherwise, let alone turning the tide, it would even be impossible to fight against a trapped beast.
"I am willing to accept my order."
There were not many heroic words about risking life and death. In this way, Yu Qian decisively took over this mess that everyone was afraid of avoiding.
Zhu Qiyu, who was still a little scared and anxious in his heart, felt proud out of thin air when facing Yu Qian like this.
"good."
"I grant you the right to act expediently."
He is willing to guard the capital of the Ming Dynasty with Yu Qian.
The mother-in-law said that she had always been proud of him.
Although in the past he was just an idle prince who shrank from everything and did not want to be in front of others, from today on, he is willing to assume the responsibility of the late prince's heir.
Perhaps, if my father knew better, he would be willing to take back the word cowardly and unyielding.
Xu Youzhen frowned, looking like she was doing business in a business-like manner and without any selfish intentions. "Your Highness, this matter still needs to be reported to the Queen Mother."
In Xu Youzhen's mind, moving south was the only way to survive.
He had selfish motives, but he also really thought about it.
Yu Qian's taking power means that there is no chance of moving south, and sticking to the capital is a foregone conclusion.
Zhu Qiyu did not feel offended, but said seriously, "That makes sense."
He was supposed to supervise the country on his behalf, and he also knew that if the ancestral family law had not been established as early as Taizu's time to strictly prohibit concubines from intervening in politics, he might not have had the need to supervise the country in his turn.
Nowadays, even though the emperor's brother was captured by Wala and the Tumu Fort suffered heavy losses in the sudden disaster, it is still the only orthodoxy in the hearts of the courtiers.
The Empress Dowager Sun was the biological mother of the emperor's brother and the successor of the late emperor, so it was normal for her to be trusted and respected by the courtiers.
Xu was too cautious due to his years of experience. Now that he was pushed to the position of supervising the country, he was not complacent at all, but instead became more and more frightened.
The great eunuch in the Queen Mother Sun's Palace brought an edict, recognizing Yu Qian's position as Minister of War and the right to defend the capital. In addition, he once again reiterated his intention to welcome the emperor back as soon as possible.
Queen Mother Sun is not stupid, she knows it is not the time to act like a monster.
To welcome back the emperor, the efforts of these ministers will be needed.
And she alone could not afford the prosperity and decline of Ming Dynasty.
Upon hearing the news of welcoming back the emperor, Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but feel dizzy again.
Not to mention the ambitious Wala who has new and old grudges, he is just an ordinary bandit who turned into a bandit. After finally catching a big piece of meat, he tried his best to make a big sum of money, and maybe extorted more than once.
As long as Da Rou Piao's family doesn't give up, Da Rou Piao is the long-term meal ticket for the entire bandit village.
The emperor's brother Zhu Qizhen was the number one "meat ticket" in the world, and Wala held it in his hands, hoping to use this to force the Ming court to submit.
They have become a piece of meat, so are they still welcome back if they want to?
The initiative lies with Wala!
The most important thing is that Wala's ambition is not something ordinary bandits dare to compare with.
Is it possible that when Wala asked for land to be ceded to pay compensation, Ming Dynasty ceded land to pay compensation?
Wala asked the Ming Dynasty to surrender and surrender, but the Ming Dynasty shouted long live?
The more anxious you are about this matter, the more passive you become.
The Empress Dowager Sun, who dominated the late emperor's harem, would not fail to understand this simple truth.
However, even though she knew it well, Queen Mother Sun still put the pressure on them.
"Your Highness, please do not be too worried."
"Although His Majesty is hunting in the north and is shackled by Ola, the Ming Dynasty is also your Majesty's confidence."
"If the Ming Dynasty is safe, Your Majesty will be safe."
"If the Ming Dynasty remains strong for a day, Your Majesty will not be humiliated in Wala."
Yu Qian expressed relief.
The Ming Dynasty was not as prosperous and rich as it was in the late Northern Song Dynasty, with redundant officials, redundant troops and redundant expenses.
Nor will he become the second Southern Song Dynasty who lived in a corner of peace and contentment.
In the Southern Song Dynasty, facing the Mongolian army, there was a sea battle on the cliff mountain. Lu Xiufu committed suicide by throwing himself into the sea with the young emperor Zhao Bing on his back. His loyal ministers followed him, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians jumped into the sea to die for their country. The Ming Dynasty should be even more so.
"I'm tired of worrying about the minister."
Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly and said in a deep voice.
Yu Qian, who was neither showing off nor revealing anything, finally saw the carp jump over the dragon gate and the white jade was covered with dust.
I hope Yu Qian can defend the capital.
Hopefully, he won't disappoint his mother and concubine.
His mother and concubine asked him to read the history of the Song Dynasty, which was not just to inspire him to stick to the capital.
The shame of Jingkang should not be buried in the sand of history, nor should it be sealed in the history books.
integrity.
The mother-in-law didn't want Daming's backbone to be bent or broken by the many earthen forts.
Zhu Qiyu touched the bead string on his wrist and his expression became more determined: "Yu Shangshu, as long as I supervise the country, I will unswervingly support you to stick to the capital and not move south."
"I may be afraid, but I will not retreat."
"I will be the supporter of Yu Shangshu."
"No matter what kind of troubles we encounter in the process, since I am in charge of the country, I will pursue my own affairs in my position."
"Yu Shangshu, move forward boldly, the defense of the capital is left to you."
"I am self-aware and have never been involved in military matters, so I can only bother with the minister."
Yu Qian responded, his expression getting weirder and weirder.
All the reactions in the Wenhua Hall today, from the Queen Mother to the ministers, are not unexpected.
What surprised him the most was King Zhu Qiyu.
This King Ni, who once had the title of vassal king in the capital, stood up without hesitation.
Whether it was opposing the move south, sticking to the capital, or urging him to become the Minister of War to take charge of the defense of the capital, or his current sincere words, it was not like King Tan's past style.
This is also a good thing.
Just like what King Xi said, he should seek his own government in his position.
Only when one's name is right can one's words be correct, and only when one's words are correct can everything be successful.
There are some things and some words that King Tan, who supervises the country, can say and do, but he cannot.
With King Tan supporting him behind him, the resistance to reorganizing the defense of the capital will be relatively small.
Yu Qian lowered his head, "I cannot guarantee that I will live up to His Highness's trust, but I will definitely risk my life. The capital is here, and I am here."
The current situation can no longer be described as difficult.
Before leaving, Yu Qian seemed to have no intention of asking, "Why did Your Highness read the History of the Song Dynasty again last night?"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes froze slightly, knowing what to say and when not to say.
"My heart is aching, I'm tossing and turning, and I can't sleep at night."
Yu Qian was silent, almost no one could sleep well last night.
Song history.
In the history of the Song Dynasty, there is not only the shame of Jingkang, but also the brothers of Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi and Song Huizong Zhao Ji, and Song Gaozong Zhao Gou Yingtianfu ascended the throne.
