The imperial capital of Daqian, Xijing.

Emperor Qian was looking at the military newspaper with trembling hands.

The two big defeats have hurt the powerful cadres.

"Who will tell me what's going on?!"

"I'm going to fight 50 elites! Not 50 pigs! Even if it's 50 pigs, the Tiance Army will have to catch them for three days! A night ago, nearly 30 troops?! What does Chahan Timur want to do? !"

Although the king of Liang has the military power, he has always been the pillar of the sky, and almost all the rebellions were put down by the king of Liang.

Such a big defeat, this is something Emperor Qian never thought about.

In the main hall, Zhong Shu Ling and Prime Minister Yelu Chucai are present.

But a veteran stood up and retorted, "Your Majesty, what does the defeat in this battle have to do with King Liang?!"

As the veteran was the first to stand up, the high-ranking generals in the ranks of generals came out one after another to respond.

"Your Majesty, if the Seventh Prince hadn't taken away the military power, how could he be defeated like this!?"

"Yes! Your Majesty! The Seventh Prince relied on His Majesty's favor and acted recklessly. What happened to King Liang? He was forced to seize power!?"

"..."

A group of generals in the army felt aggrieved for King Liang.

Looking at the angry generals below, Emperor Qian was a little at a loss. Of course, he knew that the biggest problem in this battle was the Seventh Prince.

The Seventh Prince didn't know about military affairs, so taking away King Liang's military power under such circumstances was actually giving Li Chengen a chance.

What made Emperor Qian most aggrieved was that he acquiesced in the Seventh Prince's seizure of military power.

And if it wasn't for the Taizu Golden Arrow that he bestowed on the Seventh Prince, the Seventh Prince wouldn't have had such a great ability to seize his military power.

So this pot still needs him to carry it? !

"The Seventh Prince is the culprit!"

"Your Majesty, please punish the Seventh Prince severely!"

"If you don't kill this thief, the law of the country will be difficult to rectify!"

Of course the general below knows who is behind the Seventh Prince!

After today's son took power, he always wanted to take back his power, but the power was in the hands of Yelu Chucai, and the military power was in the hands of King Liang.

The big guys are used to having a puppet emperor, and suddenly the Great Khan wanted to regain power, and everyone must have resisted it.

So although he didn't say anything on the surface, in fact, everyone hoped that the emperor would continue to be his mascot in the deep palace.

That's why all the generals played together this time, hoping that the emperor will severely punish the Seventh Prince.

The Seventh Prince is the Son of Heaven's own uncle, killing the Seventh Prince is cutting off the Son of Heaven's arm!

Now that the Seventh Prince was beheaded, both the Prince Liang's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion had already heard about it, but the Son of Heaven and the imperial court didn't know about it yet.

From this point, we can see the current plight of Emperor Qian.

Emperor Qian definitely didn't want the Seventh Prince to be dealt with, but now the responsibility was all on the Seventh Prince, even Emperor Qian felt that his uncle was a fool.

Before leaving, Emperor Qian did tell the Seventh Prince that he could wait for an opportunity to seize part of the military power from King Liang, but no one asked him to take over the position of King Liang's commander!

My uncle is good at handling government affairs, but Emperor Qian has no hope of leading troops to fight.

Not to mention defeating Li Chengen, the Seventh Prince can understand that it is not bad if he can gather an army of 50!

Although he blamed him in his heart, Emperor Qian still didn't want to kill him.

"Bo'er Jijin and Antu Timur wantonly wielded power and acted recklessly. Relying on my trust, they got their hands on military power. Afterwards, because of my careless use of troops, I killed hundreds of thousands of soldiers. I..."

"Your Majesty! I have a message!"

Yelu Chucai, who had been in the ranks of civil servants, closed his eyes and meditated without saying a word, suddenly stood up and spoke.

Emperor Qian was very dissatisfied with Yelu Chucai's behavior of interrupting his speech, which completely ignored his majesty.

But Emperor Qian couldn't help it. Yelu Chucai was the Minister of Tuogu who was personally ordered by the first emperor, and he was also the emperor's teacher.

Since learning the Han system, Heaven, Earth, Monarchs, Parents, and Teachers have also become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Although Emperor Qian is the emperor, Yelu Chucai is the teacher.

Emperor Qian finally suppressed the resentment in his heart, nodded unhappily, and signaled Yelu Chucai to speak.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that although the Seventh Prince is disadvantageous in using troops, victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists. In addition, Li Chengen, the commander of the Tiance Army, is a famous general in the world. Even if the late emperor is resurrected, he may not be his opponent..."

As soon as Yelu Chucai spoke, he was opposed by all the generals.

"Lord Yelu, since the seventh prince can't deal with Li Chengen, why did he deprive King Liang of his military power?!"

Facing the doubts from the generals, Yelu Chucai did not change his face, "The generals seem to know the situation at that time!? Why don't the generals tell us what happened, and the Seventh Prince deprived King Liang of his rights?" military power!"

"..."

The veteran in the lead was eloquent just now, but now his expression froze, and he didn't know what to say: "This..."

"The Seventh Prince is His Majesty's supervisor of the army, and he went to the army to investigate on behalf of His Majesty. What if he really finds something wrong?! What if there is indeed an emergency?! Now the matter has not been clearly investigated, but the few of you have spoken conclusively I want to attribute everything to the Seventh Prince in the end! This seems a bit inappropriate!"

In terms of words, of course, these cannot be the opponents of Yelu Chucai, a civil servant, and he couldn't answer the few questions he asked.

Although Emperor Qian was slightly dissatisfied with Yelu Chucai's behavior of interrupting him just now, but these few words of Yelu Chucai made Emperor Qian very happy.

Yes!Now no one knows why the Seventh Prince deprived King Liang of his military power, what if there is a reason for it? !

After all, he is his uncle, so he can still be guaranteed!

"Then according to what you want, how to deal with it!"

Emperor Qian asked.

"I think that the seventh prince can be temporarily removed from all duties, and only the title of King Chen will be retained. During the investigation period, the royal family's support will be halved! We will deal with it after we find out what happened."

"My minister agrees!"

"The minister also agrees!"

As soon as Yelu Chucai's words fell, a large group of civil servants jumped out to second the proposal.

Seeing this situation, the generals on the side couldn't continue to attack, after all, what Yelu Chucai said was reasonable.

As the head of civil servants, Yelu Chucai's political ability is indeed extraordinary.

This move seems simple, but it is actually very clever, both in terms of timing and means are very comparable!

First of all, as the head of civil servants, Yelu Chucai must not be able to show a harmonious relationship with King Liang.

For an ordinary lord, civil and military confrontation is the best state, and only in this way can he rest assured of his subordinates.

Harmony between civil and military, and harmony between generals and prime ministers, can only be controlled by wise emperors who are capable and courageous, such as Emperor Taizong Wen of the former Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, Yelu Chucai's targeting of King Liang this time will not only not make Emperor Qian dislike him for engaging in party struggles, but will even more believe that Yelu Chucai has no other ambitions.

This is one of them.

Second, it is Emperor Qian's intention to protect the Seventh Prince. As the head of civil servants, one must be able to speculate on the emperor's intentions.

Yelu Chucai's proposal to protect the Seventh Prince at this moment is to give the emperor a step, which will make the emperor feel very comfortable. A prime minister who makes the emperor comfortable will be more comfortable as a person.

Thirdly, while Yelu Chucai suppressed the generals, he also united with the civil servants group. Even if the Seventh Prince made a big mistake, he was still a member of the civil servants group. It was not the turn of the generals to punish him. One word made him Prestige is higher.

As expected of Zaifu's talent, this political method is indeed brilliant.

Qianhuang also followed Yelu Chucai's intention, "This is a mature and solemn statement, so let's do it first!"
