Chapter 249

Walking out of the study, Yu Qian had a smile on his face.
It was a surprise to him to see himself as a child.

What made him even more happy was that he hadn't changed over the years.

Commendable!

"Adults have the world in mind and dare to be the first in the world. The younger generation appreciates and admires it."

Yi Ze spoke from the bottom of his heart, Yu Qian devoted his whole life to the country and the people, and did his best without any debt.

What's even more rare is that when he was in a high position, he didn't miss his official position at all.

When Yu Qian's parents died, Yu Qian wrote a letter to resign and asked to go home and observe filial piety.

The imperial court did not allow it, but only allowed him to go to the funeral.

He has fulfilled his duty as a courtier!
"When I was a child, the fortune teller said that I was born with sharp eyes, had bad laws, and would never listen to others. But after serving as an official for many years, what he said made sense."

Yu Qian smiled, he was like a lotus as white as jade in the officialdom, emerging from the mud without being stained, and rejecting all the flies and dogs.

"Now in the officialdom, Lord Yu has been wronged. If it were in the Taizu Dynasty, a good official like Lord Yu would definitely be reused."

"A courtier cannot choose his lord, but a courtier can choose how to act."

Yu Qian's words were sonorous and powerful. He never complained, but only tried his best to seek benefits for the people.

He has no friends, because his character is strict with himself and others.

People like flies and dogs are sitting on pins and needles in front of him.

And those who want to cling to him are also captured by its awe-inspiring righteousness, and they are afraid.

Lonely minister, Yu Qian is a lonely minister.

"Master Yu, let's go on!"

At Yi Ze's feet, a new path appears, and together with Yu Qian, they will cross the years.

When he arrived, Yu Qian frowned.

He saw the flames.

Terrible fire!

"What's going on? Why is the flames of war burning under Jincheng?"

Yu Qian was stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief.

There are hundreds of thousands of Ming Dynasty cavalry, and they have always only beaten others. How could they be beaten to the doorstep by others?

Yi Ze explained: "This matter is that Zhu Qizhen was bewitched by Wang Zhen and insisted on leading the army to conquer himself. Yu Yexian was defeated in Tumubao. The 50 elites of the Ming army were almost wiped out. Zhu Qizhen was captured, and he also sent his troops first. Going south, wanting to destroy Daming!"

"This bastard!" Yu Qian scolded angrily, worried, "Why don't I dissuade him? Damn it, why doesn't he understand what the material is?"

There are not many people in the world who dare to scold the emperor, but Yu Qian is definitely one of them.

"My lord, you tried to persuade me, but Zhu Qizhen didn't listen."

Yu Qian was speechless at what Yi Ze was talking about. He scratched his hair in pain and murmured: "Wala went south, people were devastated along the way, and the people were displaced. Such disasters... Sigh!"

The capital city we entered was really full of soldiers.

The originally prosperous and lively place under the emperor's feet was now in a state of turmoil. The people did not dare to go to the streets and only hid in their houses, trembling with fear.

Above the court hall, it was much more lively.

A group of ministers were quarreling fiercely.

Yi Ze and Yu Qian walked in together without anyone noticing.

At this moment, above the court hall, all civil and military officials are in panic.

Yu Qian stood among them, and compared to Yu Qian who was beside Yi Ze, he looked a bit older.

He is old and no longer young, but his waist is still straight and his voice is still powerful.

"Whether it's war or peace, now we can have a good discussion!"

Zhu Qizhen was captured, and Empress Dowager Sun had to come out to maintain the government.

At this moment, Wala's troops were approaching the city, people were panicking, and they urgently needed to make regulations.

"Empress Dowager, what do you mean?"

Some ministers asked questions, but the Empress Dowager Sun only replied indifferently: "The Wara soldiers are approaching the city, and you ministers, you need to plan carefully. You know everything, and you can say everything!"

"In Yichen's opinion, Wala also came out first this time, and there is no possibility of peace."

"That's war!"

A courtier stepped forward and said, "I'm not sure about the battle, the three major battalions of the capital are nothing but empty shells, and the elite have already perished in the battle of the Tumubao."

"Haha!" Empress Dowager Sun sneered, "War won't work, and peace won't work either. Are we going to surrender without mercy? Give up the foundation laid by our ancestors to Wala?"

When the two ministers heard this, they were frightened and took two steps back.

They didn't dare to talk about this matter, they would have to move their heads if they talked about it.

At the time of anxiety, someone shouted loudly from behind the group of ministers: "Your minister was a Jinshi in the eighth year of Xuande, and the servant of the Imperial Academy is talking about Xu Youzhen. He has something to say!"

Empress Dowager Sun looked back and said only one sentence: "Speak."

"When I was young, I got a fairy to teach the study of stars. Recently, I watched the stars with my sword and found that the sky was different. I was tempted to go to Nandou."

Queen Mother Sun frowned: "Speak more clearly and speak out!"

Xu Youzhen pushed aside the group of officials, went forward to pay respects, and said: "If you are in trouble, war will inevitably start. According to my opinion, you must move south quickly to avoid disasters!"

As soon as the words fell, Yu Qian's expression beside Yi Ze suddenly changed. He became furious and scolded: "You traitorous ministers and traitors dare to confuse the public with their evil words here. You should be pulled out and beheaded!"

And above the court, Old Yu Qian was equally stern: "Nonsense!"

With a scolding, all the officials were afraid, Xu Youzhen bit her head and said: "The sky is warning, this is God's will."

Yu Qian raised his eyebrows angrily and said bluntly to the Queen Mother: "My lies are misleading! All major events in the world depend on the celestial phenomena, so Emperor Taizu Gao doesn't need to raise an army. He only needs to wait for the celestial phenomena to give a warning, and Beiyuan will be finished!"

Xu Youzhen spoke decisively, and continued: "My lord, don't get excited, let's not mention the astronomical warning, and ask my lord, how many people are left behind in the three major battalions of the capital? Can you guarantee that we will win? Those who can fight, There are only 2 people at most, how to deal with Oala's hundreds of thousands of troops? Or, Master Yu, do you want us to be taken as prisoners collectively?"

After saying these words, the ministers who spoke were frightened and lowered their heads one after another, with the intention of moving south in their eyes.

Yu Qian never knew this, but at this moment, he was filled with rage.

On weekdays, the civil and military ministers are domineering, enjoying the benefits given to them by the state, all of them have their eyes above the top, but now that the Ming Dynasty is in crisis, these ministers don't want to be loyal to the country, but they want to escape first. , It should be killed!

Facing the Empress Dowager Sun, Yu Qian's face was as cold as green iron, and he almost roared: "The capital is the foundation of the country. Once it moves, the general situation will go away. Isn't the lesson of the Song Dynasty's southward migration not profound enough?"

Turning his head, looking at Xu Youzhen's confident appearance, Yu Qian understood that this person was just a representative pushed by the officials, and he was even more angry in his heart. Facing the officials, Yu Qian's neck burst out with blue veins, and his voice was stern: "I advocate Nan Those who move can be beheaded!"

With one sentence, the atmosphere in the court suddenly became deserted.

Empress Dowager Sun came out to smooth things over: "Today's discussion, you can speak freely, it's not like you have to kill anything, let's continue talking."

Zhu Qiyu bowed at the side and said: "My son thinks that what your lord said is reasonable. The capital is the foundation of the country. If the capital is there, the teachers of King Qin will come quickly. If the capital falls, all the people north of the Yangtze River will fall into the country. The enemy, when the time comes, the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun will be lost again, and most of the foundation created by Emperor Gao of his lifetime will be lost!"

Xu Youzhen still advocated southward migration, and based on the royal blood. When Yu Qian heard it, he immediately felt angry and bloody. , are you willing to leave it?"

This sentence made Empress Dowager Sun's eyes widen. If she moved south, she would become a sinner through the ages and be nailed to the pillar of shame forever.

Xu Youzhen still didn't know, so she just continued: "I advocate moving to the south, and if you are a great person who confuses people with your evil words, you should be killed!"

Yu Qian laughed, and laughed back with anger, went up and grabbed Xu Youzhen by the collar, slapped him directly, and scolded: "Master Xu watched the sky at night, why didn't he observe that your godfather Wang Zhen died in Tumubao? Also, As a civil servant, your body, hair and skin are protected by your parents, where is your beard?"

After several consecutive slaps, a smile appeared on Queen Mother Sun's lips, and she made peace: "Enough of the beating. Okay, three pavilion elders, what do you think?"

"The imperial court can move south, but the troops need to stay and fight!"

"No, if this happens, morale will decline! If the sergeants know the news, they will definitely have no intention of resisting the enemy. The people will lose their morale and the capital will not be protected!"

"Empress Dowager, I also mean the same thing!"

The officials kept silent and waited for the result.

Beside Yi Ze, Yu Qian was already furious, wishing to go forward and kill these officials who advocated moving south.

"If you eat the emperor's salary, you don't want to worry about the emperor. If something happens, you will run away. How come there are such idiots in the Ming Dynasty!"

Yu Qian was heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do.

Chaohui dispersed, deserted.

At this moment, people's minds are changing and all officials are panicking.

Yi Ze and Yu Qian walked out of the court meeting, and not long after, they saw old Yu Qian.

More than ten years have passed, and Yu Qian is getting older, his hair is half white, and he is already showing signs of decline.

But in the eyes, there is still the same firm will!

When the two Yu Qian met, the old Yu Qian was obviously taken aback.

This is not the meeting between 12-year-old Yu Qian and middle-aged Yu Qian.

Now each other, can recognize each other.

"Huh? Are you...me?"

A familiar feeling made Old Yu Qian hesitate.

A living self appeared in front of him, only a little younger.

"I am you, the old you."

"The me in the past……"

Old Yu Qian muttered to himself, although he felt that it was a bit unreasonable, but he quickly accepted it.

Because he saw the same light in his eyes.

Fiery, determined, unyielding!

"Now the capital is in critical condition, what can you do?"

Yu Qian asked eagerly.

"What would happen if it were you?"

Old Yu Qian asked back.

The two looked at each other, were silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled.

Then they said together: "Only fight to the death!"

As he spoke, the laughter gradually grew louder.

"Only fight to the death!"

Smiling and laughing, the two of them repeated through gritted teeth.

The will is like steel, tenacious and unyielding!
The audience burst into tears.

"For the Ming Dynasty, Shaobao really did his best to die."

"Tearful eyes, when all the officials are in panic, Yu Qian is the only one who advocates a battle!"

"Xu Youzhen, that bastard, doesn't know anything but flatters others. Move south? I'll move him to hell!"

"It's time for Xu Youzhen to be beheaded. Why do you keep such treacherous ministers?"

"Damn it, if Zhu Di knew about it, he would have been chopped off right then and his blood would be spattered on the spot!"

"Only by fighting to the death can we have hope, otherwise the Ming Dynasty will become the Southern Song Dynasty, settle in a corner, and eventually be destroyed."

"If it weren't for Yu Qian, history would have been rewritten in the future. The Ming Dynasty would be in a corner, lose the initiative, and be destroyed in the end. In the Central Plains, a great Yuan will appear again, and the aliens will steal the artifact!"

"Yu Qian extended Ming's life for another 200 years!"

"Zhu Yuanzhang rebuilt China and tidied up the old mountains and rivers! And Yu Qian rebuilt the Ming Dynasty and reshaped the mountains and rivers!"

Yi Ze was on the side, also tearful.

Yu Qian has no friends and everyone is very afraid of him.

Because he is so clear!
Yu Qian does not have the tact of an official, and he does not understand the world's human feelings. In his heart, he only cares about the people.

When the water is clear, there will be no fish, and when the water is clear, there will be no evil.

Yu Qian is the purest water and the most observant person.

There was no room for sand in his eyes.

If he hadn't been in the court just now, Yu Qian would have drawn his sword immediately and cut off Xu Youzhen's head!

Yu Qian, who had no friends, actually felt a sense of sympathy after meeting him.

Only he himself can be his friend.

Others, don't deserve it!

Perhaps people like Yue Fei, Wen Tianxiang, Zhuge Wuhou, Hai Rui, Wang Yangming, and Xin Qiji will become very good friends when they get together.

They have similar hearts, a heart that is devoted to the country and the people and will die till the end.

But it is a pity that they are not in the same era, and they are separated by years.

People like Yu Qian are rare in history.

In the 5000 years of Huaxia, how many people have been born, but there are only a few people like Yu Qian among them.

It can be seen that it is valuable and respectable.

There are countless treacherous ministers and treacherous ministers in history.

Zhao Gao, Yan Song and Wang Zhen recorded in historical materials are just the famous ones.

As for the others, it can be said that they are like crucian carp crossing the river.

Think about Emperor Hongwu, how many corrupt officials he killed?
In just one dynasty, tens of thousands of people were killed. It is conceivable how many such officials there are in the history of China.

It can be said that if you kill a court from top to bottom, you can't go wrong.

There may be mistakes in the founding dynasty, but the later, the less mistakes will be made.

If you kill a thousand, you will only miss it, and if you kill [-], the same is true.

A person with two sleeves like Yu Qian may not be able to see one in hundreds of years.

He is like a star that is beyond reach, brilliant and yet selfless.

If there are so many more ministers like this, it will be the blessing of the community, the blessing of the people, and the blessing of the world!

If all the officials in the world were Yu Qian, then the rivers and seas would be immortal.

If all the people in the world were Yu Qian, then the mountains and rivers would be eternal and powerful!

This is the role of Yu Qian. He is not a deceased person, but a symbol, a brand!
The battle to defend the capital, under the leadership of Yu Qian, went through untold hardships and finally succeeded.

The Daming Mountains and Rivers, in the hands of Yu Qian, will continue to live for 200 years.

But such a loyal minister, such an example to the world, was killed by the crime of "will".

What is "intention"?
Just like Yue Fei in the Southern Song Dynasty did not have it!

This is "will"!
On the day of Yu Qian's death, the people wept and the sky was gloomy.

Yi Ze stood at the execution ground with tears in his eyes.

A generation of loyal ministers, Yu Shaobao, ultimately failed to defeat the corrupt officialdom and was sentenced to death for the crime of "intention".

During the execution, the people cried and howled loudly, they did not forget who saved them and who saved the world.

In the chaos of light and shadow, 12-year-old Yu Qian, middle-aged Yu Qian who suffered from prison, Yu Qian who vowed to protect the capital to the death, and Yu Qian at the end of the curtain, overlapped in an instant.

His eyes are still so pure and firm!
In the eyes looking at this mountain and river, there is reluctance and nostalgia, but more is,
Worry!

Concern for the country and the people is the portrayal of his life.

After Yu Qian's death, Jin Yiwei searched Yu Qian's family property, but there was no money, so that Jin Yiwei, who has always been known for his iron-blooded ruthlessness, couldn't help crying.

Daming, sent away his patron saint, Daming, lost his guardian.

No one has died in life since ancient times.

Yu Qian used his whole life to explain what loyalty is and what is unyielding.

He is the torch that Mr. Lu Xun mentioned.

Even in the dark night without light, it is still burning fiercely.

Yu Qian left, he was like a shooting star, quickly pierced through the dark sky of Daming, brought a short light, and quickly dissipated.

However, the spirit left by Yu Qian is immortal!

He is a seed that, after burning everything, turns into a seed in people's hearts. With the right person, it will sprout again.

The world is dark, and I am the only one who speaks out!
The mountains and rivers are eternal, and the strength of character will last forever!
This is Yu Qian!
This is Yu Qian!
