After six years of orthodoxy, Yu Qian said, "Today, Henan and Shanxi each have millions of grains. All prefectures and counties are requested to report to poor households who lack food every March and distribute food to them. First rice, then millet, then rice. After the autumn harvest, it will be returned to the government, and the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled will be exempted. When state and county officials want to be promoted after the expiration of their term of office, they are not allowed to leave their posts if the grain reserves fail to meet the targets. And ordered regulatory officials to conduct regular inspections. " The imperial edict should be carried out accordingly. Near the Yellow River in Henan Province, banks often disappear due to the rising water level. Yu Qian ordered the protection dike to be thickened, and a pavilion was set in Fiona Fang for several miles. Tingchang, responsible for supervising the dike repair. He also ordered to plant trees and dig wells, so elms lined the roads, and there were no thirsty pedestrians on the roads. Datong is far away from the frontier fortress alone, so it is difficult for people visiting Shanxi to go. Please set up another suggestion management. All the fields privately reclaimed by the garrison commander were returned to the official village to finance the border defense funds. His prestige spread all over the country, and thieves in Taihang Mountain either fled or hid. After nine years in office, he was promoted to assistant minister Zuo and received a second-class official salary.
In A.D. 1449, Mongolian invaders marched south, and Ming Yingzong listened to eunuchs who had no military knowledge. As a result, during World War I, 500,000 troops of the Ming Dynasty were wiped out, and Ming Yingzong became a prisoner. When the news reached the capital, some people advocated fleeing south, while others advocated surrendering. At a critical juncture, Yu Qian stepped forward, denounced all kinds of escapism and capitulationism, mobilized all kinds of military forces, and defended the capital. The enemy took Ming Yingzong hostage and demanded that Mingting surrender, or they would kill Yingzong. Some people also advocate handing over the city to protect Yingzong's life. Yu Qian seriously questioned: which is more important, the national and personal life of Yingzong? Resolutely reject the enemy's ultimatum. Yu Qian led an army of 220,000 troops to defend the capital and beat back the enemy's attacks again and again. The invaders saw heavy casualties and could not get any oil and water, fearing that the Central Plains was a big country after all. As the saying goes, there are still three pounds of nails on the rotten ship. I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable if I am accidentally countered by Yu Qian. Just sell a accommodate them and send Ming Yingzong back to Mingting when withdrawing troops. When Ming Yingzong returned to the throne, he did not think about Yu Qian's efforts to defend the enemy, but hated Yu Qian for not listening to the advice of Mongolian soldiers. He almost died by the sword, so he found an excuse to put Yu Qian in prison and then beheaded him to vent his personal anger. It was not until Ming Yingzong's death that Ming Xianzong ascended the throne. In order to calm the public's anger, he bought people's hearts and ordered Yu Qian to implement policies and rehabilitate them. Life and death are glorious and exciting. No wonder the folk proverb says: loyalty and frankness, eventually begging, treacherous and cunning, frying early and frying late.
