-Beijing coup
At the foot of Lime Mountain in Yangzhou, Yu Qian's heavy footsteps echoed in the post office. The local official looked at the third-rate official from Beijing in fear. The teacup in his hand trembled slightly with Yu Qian's footsteps, waiting for Yu Qian, who was usually gentle and gentle, to lose his temper ... The footsteps stopped, and Yu Qian, who was silent for more than half an hour, finally spoke: "You all go." The official breathed a sigh of relief and left in a hurry. Yu Qian gave a wry smile, shook his head and waved his hand as a farewell to the officials. ...
Five days ago, there was a coup in Kyoto. Zhu, king of Rong Zhi, led 8,000 rebels into Beijing on the grounds that Emperor Chengwu didn't know whether it was true or not, forcing Emperor Chengwu to abdicate and changing his title to Wende. The courtiers who still supported Emperor Chengwu in North Korea were exterminated in an absolutely cruel way. Although it is not as ruthless as Judy after she ascended the throne, it is enough to make people feel creepy. The day before yesterday, an imperial edict came from Beiping, ordering Yu Qian to return to Beijing within fifteen days, and Yu Qian's official duties in Yangzhou were represented by another official. In this way, Yu Qian has no excuse to stay in Yangzhou. Yu Qian knew very well that Emperor Wende wanted him to take a stand, but he could not stand on Emperor Wende's side and kill those loyal people.
In the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City in Beijing, Emperor Wende looked at Yu Qian, who had just arrived. His tone was seven points gentle and three points serious: "Yu Shangshu, why don't you tell me which side you are on?" Yu Qian didn't expect the emperor to ask this sharp question so directly. Sighed, in fact, only from the emperor's robes, crown and dragon chair, he knew that the emperor could not achieve great things, so he took out a roll of paper from his sleeve and presented it to Emperor Wende. Wendy opened the paper roll, her smile immediately solidified, and then her face turned blue. "You, you incredibly ..." "Life is worse than death." Yu Qian severely interrupted Wen Dedi's words. As soon as Emperor Wende let go, the paper roll fell to the ground. One side of the little eunuch curiously looked at the words on the paper roll and froze. It is actually a poem called "The Poem of Lime". Yu Qian spoke again: "I don't want the world to think that I am in cahoots with you." Say that finish, he walked away. Emperor Wende finally couldn't help it. With the word "kill", two guards rushed over, grabbed Yu Qian's arm and beheaded Yu Qian directly outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"A thousand hammers cut out the mountain, and the fire is only idle."
"I'm not afraid of broken bones. I want to remain innocent in the world."
The little eunuch finally saw the words on it.
