Hearing this, Chu Yan smiled, then shook his head slightly to deny this speculation.
But deep down he thought this idea was very reasonable and bold.
However, it is obvious that the positioning is not accurate enough, the courage is not big enough, and the rationality is not sufficient.
Why can’t the little emperor be the eldest brother’s man?
Why must the little emperor in the palace now be an imposter?
To be honest, when Chu Yan first learned the truth, he was even more confused than Yu Shengwu is now.
At this time, Chu Yan did not explain and just waited for Yu Shengwu's reply.
He was determined to keep the subordinate in front of him in suspense.
"General, could it be that the Emperor has lost his mind? Does he think Lord Chu is a loyal minister and is willing to hand over the throne to him?"
Yu Shengwu is another guess.
At the same time, he was thinking back on the court meetings of the previous few days.
It's strange. The emperor at that time seemed to be in good condition and didn't seem to be crazy.
He could only think of this result. No matter how outrageous it was, it was impossible that the emperor in the palace and Lord Chu actually had the same father, right?
What's more, brothers are nothing when it comes to the throne among royal families.
It is possible for a husband and wife, as the person next to you is indeed more trustworthy than a brother, after all, it involves common offspring.
But Lord Chu and the Emperor are both men.
Upon hearing this, Chu Yan couldn't help but scold: "How could the emperor lose his mind?"
After saying this, he paused for a moment, then spoke with a somewhat helpless tone:
"The main thing is that even my elder brother was caught off guard at the time. The little emperor in the palace turned out to be his wife, my sister-in-law. Tell me, faced with such a problem, what should we do?"
"Ah? The current emperor is Madam Chu?" Yu Shengwu was stunned when he heard this explanation.
"How is this possible, General Chu? I congratulated Lord Chu on his wedding last year. Isn't Lord Chu's wife the granddaughter of Elder Shen? How could it be... the emperor, and the emperor is a man..."
He originally wanted to explain what he had seen last year to refute Chu Yan's words, but halfway through his words he finally realized something was wrong.
He had a preconceived notion. Who said that the current emperor must be a man?
Lord Chu's late wedding date was partly due to internal reasons within the Chu family and his own busy schedule, but it was a different story for the current emperor who was about to turn nineteen.
Many officials had previously advised the emperor to take a concubine and establish a queen to ensure the stability of the country, but the emperor always evaded and rejected their advice.
One has to admit that Yu Shengwu has his own keen insight. Chu Yan was able to boldly guess the only possible combination of the two with just a slight reminder.
At least… he knew that Lord Chu could not marry a man openly.
If Madam Chu is the emperor, then there is only one answer to this question, that is, the emperor who has been on the throne for three years is actually a woman.
He was an old general, but he knew very well that the late emperor had no sons or daughters in the seven years since he ascended the throne, and his youngest sons all died young. The current emperor was the late emperor's only offspring.
When today's emperor was born, the late emperor was just a prince.
After figuring this out and realizing this huge lie, Yu Shengwu felt terrible.
He knelt on the ground in a daze, opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but no words came out.
If Lord Chu really has feelings for the emperor, then there is naturally no reason for him to rebel.
After all, if he rebelled, the throne would eventually have to be handed over to his son.
If there is no rebellion, with the strength of the Chu family, when the empress abdicates, the new emperor will definitely be Lord Chu's son.
For this reason, it is indeed possible not to rebel.
only……
What about these brothers?
Lord Chu and the Emperor, who were once sworn enemies but now lovers, may have real feelings for each other and there is no need to worry about anything.
But what do these military generals who are planning to rebel say?
If the emperor wants to settle accounts, will Lord Chu protect them?
Yu Shengwu was still wondering about the future development of this matter, but Chu Yan continued:
"Commander Yu, even if you bring this matter to this general's head, I can forgive your impulsiveness, but this time you chose the wrong person, do you understand?"
Yu Shengwu was stunned. He nodded subconsciously and then quickly shook his head.
"If General Chu feels that what I did was completely wrong, I really have nothing to say..."
After hearing this forced excuse, Chu Yan was so angry that he stood up again.
"You secretly gathered scholars to cause trouble, intending to murder high-ranking officials in the court. Is this not wrong?"
Hearing this, Yu Shengwu lowered his head and did not answer.
But Chu Yan didn't care what he thought in his heart, and waved his hand directly:
"This general now relieves you of your command of the Tianji Camp and orders you to go north to Yan Territory as a centurion. For the next five years, you will not be eligible for any promotion or rank for any military merits you have earned, no matter how great!"
The Five Military Commandery manages the Five Military Camps and the Tianji Camp of the Beijing Camp. Chu Yan is only a grand commander and does not have the power to appoint or dismiss the commander of the Tianji Camp.
But now he controls almost all the troops in the Beijing camp, and most of the soldiers are his subordinates, so there is no big problem in removing Yu Shengwu from his post.
If this matter is reported to the Ministry of War and presented to the Emperor, the result will only be worse than this.
These words made Yu Shengwu, who had been silent, suddenly raise his head in surprise.
"General Chu, I have been loyal to you for the past few years and have made countless contributions and contributions. Why are you so cold-hearted?"
This time he was anxious, really anxious.
As a military commander, what I fear is not death, nor is I afraid of being a soldier again.
