Faced with Yu Qian's doubts, Zhu Qiyu pondered for a moment and asked.
"This is not considered a secret in the imperial court. Under this situation, what if I know about it?"
He raised his head and looked at Yu Qian as well.
However, Yu Qian's eyes were flickering, but Zhu Qiyu's eyes were steady and calm.
He didn't answer Yu Qian's question because he couldn't.
The reason why he knows is because in his previous life, he was the emperor for seven years, and all the data of the Ministry of War were no secrets to him.
But it was impossible for him to tell Qian these things, and he wouldn't believe them even if he did.
Similarly, Zhu Qiyu couldn't tell Yu Qian, he was just prepared in advance.
Yu Qian has an upright nature. It's one thing to have a guess in his mind, but it's another thing to really confirm it.
After all, Yu Qian is still a member of civil servants. Etiquette, law and justice are untouchable rules for civil servants, and for many civil servants.
Zhu Qiyu doesn't want to gamble...
So he could only remind Yu Qian from another angle.
...Under this situation, what if I know? …
Yu Qian lowered his head and chewed the words carefully. After a long while, he sighed and said.
"What the prince said is true. The Japanese troops are more powerful than the Cao troops. They should be mobilized at the same time."
Zhu Qiyu nodded.
Yu Qian is a smart person. The biggest advantage of a smart person is that he can tell everything at once.
Zhu Qiyu avoided talking about how he knew. The key point of his words was that under this situation.
What's the situation now?
The capital is in danger, the government and the public are in turmoil, and the army is pressing forward step by step.
The top priority now is to keep the capital intact.
As for whether he, the King of Tao, has any thoughts, that is something to consider after saving the capital.
What's more, Zhu Qiyu didn't believe it. As a senior official of the third rank, Yu Qianhui had never considered how the position would belong to him once the emperor could not come back.
In his previous life, Yu Qian was one of the ministers who firmly supported his ascension to the throne.
Although the current situation is different from the previous life, Zhu Qiyu feels that there is a high probability that a person's temperament and his decision-making when facing major situations will not change.
As expected, Yu Qian is not the kind of rotten scholar who sticks to etiquette. In his heart, the country, the country, and the country are more important than anything else.
Since he said this, it means that he does not want to mention this matter again...
There was silence in the hall for a moment, and Zhu Qiyu continued to ask.
"At the court meeting the day after tomorrow, the Ministry of War will nominate candidates for the admiral's command in the capital. Does Yu Shilang have any alternatives in mind?"
Yu Qian was keenly aware that this should be the biggest reason why King Xi stayed here today.
After pondering for a moment, Yu Qian said.
"The admiral of the capital camp is very important. He must have prestige in the army, and he must also overwhelm the ministers. He must also have dealt with Wala, or at least, he must occupy one of the three..."
In fact, Yu Qian originally wanted to say that all three conditions should be met.
But after thinking about the current situation of his relatives in Beijing, he had to change his mind again and said.
"I have drawn up three candidates. One is the official Shi Heng, the second is Xincheng Bo Zhao Rong, and the third is the Prince Consort Jiao Jing."
When Zhu Qiyu heard Shi Heng's name, his eyes flashed.
He was even more impressed by this person than Yu Qian.
This man was originally the commander of the Kuanhe Guards. He fought with Oala in his early years and made many military exploits. He was promoted to the governor and the magistrate. Among the border generals, his reputation and ability were second only to Yang Hong.
In the 14th year of the Zhengtong reign, he guarded Datong together with Song Ying, the Marquis of Xining, and Zhu Mian, the Bo of Wu Jin.
Later, Wala invaded the border and followed Song Ying and the enemy troops to fight at Yanghe Pass. Song Ying and Zhu Mian died in the battle. Shi Heng fled back to the capital alone and was demoted to an official.
In his previous life, he was also recommended by Yu Qian as the admiral of the capital camp.
After the Battle of Beijing, Shi Heng was knighted for his meritorious service and became the spokesperson of the Xunqi Group. He also became an important military official of Zhu Qiyu to check and balance Yu Qian.
But in the end, he, together with Xu Youzhen and others, broke into Nangong and launched the coup to seize the door...
History went full circle, and Yu Qian finally recommended him this time.
However, in his previous life, Zhu Qiyu had not been so deeply involved in government affairs, nor had he helped civil servants suppress their relatives.
Although in the end, Xunqi was still brutally counterattacked by the civil servant group, but not now, nor was it aimed at the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion.
But that's a story later. At least at that time, although it was due to Qian's recommendation, it was reported directly to Zhu Qiyu through the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion for direct approval of the appointment.
He has never been nominated by the Ministry of War, let alone any recommendation.
In this life, the reason why Zhu Qiyu wrested the right to nominate the admiral minister from the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion was not only to stabilize his relationship with civil servants, but also for other purposes. One of them was...
"Now is the time when everyone in the capital is united as one to fight against the thieves. The capital camp is the most important place for the defense of the capital. It needs capable ministers and admirals. Therefore, my king's intention..."
"Since the minister himself serves as the admiral, how dare you do it?"
Zhu Qiyu said lightly, but his expression was extremely serious.
After saying this, Yu Qian's eyes suddenly widened and his brows furrowed tightly.
He didn't expect that Prince Tan would be so bold...
The admiral of the Beijing Camp has always been one of the core authorities of the Fifth Army Governor's Office, and is basically held concurrently by one of the governors of the Fifth Army Governor's Office.
The conditions for his appointment are even more stringent. As mentioned in the previous article, any governor of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion must be recognized by his relatives, the emperor, and civil servants.
This is the case for the admiral of the capital camp!
Anyone who can take on this task is the emperor's most valued high-ranking relative.
Until now in the Ming Dynasty, no civil servant has ever served as an admiral in the capital!
What does this Prince Tan mean...
Yu Qian fell into deep thought for a moment, and Zhu Qiyu did not rush him, so he had time to wait for him to think clearly.
After a long while, Yu Qian slowly shook his head and said.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, the admiral of the capital camp has always been held by a relative. At this critical moment, the safety of the capital should be the top priority. If you do it without authorization, you may be dissatisfied with your honorable relatives, which will only increase internal friction."
"Kuang Chen, as the minister of the Ministry of War, is favored by the prince, and on behalf of the Ministry of War, he draws up a list of candidates for admiral ministers. If he is named on the list, it may be suspected of being promoted for his own use, so I think it is inappropriate."
Yu Qian said it euphemistically, but in fact these two words mean the same thing.
In today's situation, we should still focus on being consistent with the outside world.
The Beijing camp has always been one of the core authorities of the Fifth Army Governor's Office. Now the Ministry of War has taken away the right to nominate admiral ministers from the Fifth Army Governor's Office.
If you still have to push the envelope and want to directly let civil servants come to supervise the capital camp, it will be difficult for the honorable relatives to accept it.
You know, although Xunqi is weak now, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. If a general breaks out, it will not be easy to deal with.
What's more, the current situation is not suitable for starting a large-scale civil and military dispute.
Even if you want to suppress your relatives, you must control your temper.
As the saying goes, you have to eat one bite at a time...
Zhu Qiyu looked at Yu Qian.
He naturally understood the hidden meaning of these words.
Indeed, for Xunqi, the cost of giving up the Beijing camp is very high, especially now that civil servants are eyeing them covetously, the Beijing camp cannot be lost.
They were really pushed into a hurry and dared to go directly into the palace to cry at the Cining Palace.
If the trouble really gets out of hand, it will only make the situation in the capital even worse.
Even in his previous life, Yu Qian intervened in the affairs of the Beijing camp in the form of a military counselor rather than as an official admiral.
It was not until later, after the battle to defend Beijing was won, that Yu Qian was responsible for saving the world, and he barely suppressed all the voices and truly took control of the Beijing camp.
So what Yu Qian is really worried about is the stability of the capital.
As for self-advocacy, it is just a cover.
But since Zhu Qiyu said so, he naturally had his plans, so he spoke.
"As for your relatives, you don't have to worry, Minister Yu. I will handle it for you. If Minister Yu feels that he is plotting for personal gain, then I will nominate him."
"Now I just want to ask, does Yu Shilang dare to accept this assignment?"
…………
"dare!"
