***

Morozov was originally Tsar Alexei. Mikhailovich. Romanov's teacher, who was also a minister left by the previous generation of tsars, once held great power. ∷

But in the past two years, Tsar Alexei has become more and more dependent on the Patriarch, and often invited Nikon to the Kremlin to discuss issues, at first only religious issues, and then the two gradually discussed state affairs.

Having gained the trust of the Tsar, Nikon began to carry out church reform this year. The main direction of the reform was to reform the various canonical systems of the Orthodox Church of the Moscow Holy See in accordance with the Byzantine way and to unify the religious activities of the Church in various places.

Nikon also proposed that the Russian Tsar should be the ruler of the entire Orthodox world, that the capital of Russia should be Constantinople, and that the Patriarch of Moscow and all Russia should accordingly become the spiritual leader of the entire Orthodox world.

Nikon's reforming activities caused panic among the great nobles and the church.

Because it was previously agreed that Moscow was the third Rome, the heir to the Byzantine Empire, but higher than Byzantium;

Now it is necessary to reform the religious rites of the Moscow Holy See in accordance with the Byzantine way, in fact, Xiang Zhuang danced the sword, which was intended for Pei Gong.

Its fundamental purpose was to give the Tsar and the Patriarch absolute power over the secular and religious, in the form of religion.

If this is the case, then the great nobles can only bow down and let themselves be slaughtered, which is unacceptable.

The contradictions between the two sides were already intensifying, and this time the tsar blatantly executed seven or eight nobles without parliament and trial, which was actually challenging the bottom line of the big nobles.

Morozov, the minister of Gu Ming, hurriedly summoned a dozen or so nobles, including Duma secretary Past, imperial courtier Dekseev, and general of the Cossack cavalry regiment Basakov, to discuss countermeasures.

Duma Clerk Paster looked at everyone and first said: "Although Kalowsky and his family are innocent, their crimes should be tried by the court, and they should not be executed just like that."

If we don't keep silent this time, then it will be tantamount to recognizing the absolute authority of the tsar and giving him the power to take life and death, after this war is over. The Tsar is also in power, and our catastrophe is coming. ”

The other six or seven nobles immediately echoed each other, and everyone's worries were unanimous.

The imperial courtier Dkseev said with a sad face: "But now the Qin soldiers outside the city are eyeing us, if we overthrow the tsar at this time, the soldiers defending the city will have no intention of fighting, and when Moscow can't keep it, we won't end well." ”

"What then? If we continue like this, when we defeat the Qin people, we will also be in great trouble! ”

"Why don't we send someone out to negotiate with the people of Qin."

"Yes, try to get in touch with the people of the Qin State. It doesn't hurt us. ”

"Prime Minister, what do you think?"

Everyone is gossiping and nervous, which is a matter of everyone's net worth and life. Suddenly, someone asked Morozov, who had been silent, and everyone couldn't help but stop talking and look at him together.

Morozov said hesitantly: "Since everyone said so, let's send someone out to contact the people of the Qin State, it would be good to delay it for a while." ”

"But the further it drags on, the worse it will be for us. The Tsar of Afghanistan now boosts morale day and night at the head of the city. In fact, he is buying the hearts of the army, and more and more soldiers support him, and if it goes on like this, it will not be a few days. The soldiers listened to him. ”

Yes, Alexei is, after all, a justifiable tsar, and when danger comes, he is now rushing to the front line to share the weal and woe with the soldiers. It won't be long before ordinary soldiers will definitely be very supportive of him.

As soon as he succeeded in holding the gun in his hand, the great nobles of the city became lambs to be slaughtered.

Duma Secretary Paster clenched his fists fiercely and said: "If we don't take immediate action." In the end, they will die without a place to be buried, and I will definitely not be able to. I suggest that we act decisively and depose Alexei immediately, and in order to stabilize the morale of the army, we can quickly change Princess Irina to the tsar, what do you think? ”

The previous generation of Tsar Mikhail. Fedorovich. The Romanovs had three sons and seven daughters, but only the eldest son, Alexei, and the sixth daughter, Irina. Mikhailovna survived, the others died.

Princess Irina is 15 years old this year, her appearance and personality are very similar to her mother, beautiful and meek and elegant, and it is much easier to control her to be the tsar than Alexei, who is full of ambition. With this in mind, the proposal of the Duma clerk Paster was approved by the majority of the nobility.

Morozov, the minister of care, was a little hesitant, he was Alexei's teacher, and Alexei still respected him, at least for now.

It's just that everyone agrees with the deposition of Alexei and the appointment of Princess Irina as Tsar, and if he forcibly opposes it so much, these people will definitely be dissatisfied.

Morozov, who was forced to ride a tiger, finally proposed a compromise approach: "The immediate deposition of Alexei now will certainly cause a great shock, and may even cause a mutiny." Let's put the tsar under house arrest first, and then make further plans after defeating the Qin people. ”

Being put under house arrest first is equivalent to cutting off the possibility of Alexei controlling the army, and without a single gun, Alexei will not be able to threaten everyone for the time being. Moreover, doing so is much more low-key than directly deposing and low-key, and it is less likely to trigger a mutiny, so everyone agreed.

After a conspiracy was discussed, everyone immediately took action, first the imperial courtier Dkseev went to invite Tsar Alexei back to the palace, and then the general of the Cossack cavalry regiment Basakov was responsible for leading the troops to put the Tsar under house arrest. It's simple, isn't it?

However, when the courtier Dkseev went to the city to ask Alexei to return to the palace, Alexei refused, and said in a righteous manner that he would always stand with the soldiers at this moment of the country's survival, until the enemy was defeated, or the last drop of blood was shed.

The young Tsar was in the city, in front of the soldiers, and said this righteous and awe-inspiring words, which immediately won the cheers of the soldiers, and many soldiers saw the tired Tsar with warm and even adoring eyes.

Seeing the soldiers supporting Alexei so much, it made Decseev's heart cold, and the sense of crisis in his heart became more and more intense, but Alexei insisted on staying in the city, and he didn't say much.

After Ekseev left the city, he hurriedly asked the attendants in the palace of the Queen Mother to rush to the city and told Alexei that the Queen Mother was sick.

Just as Alexei was about to enter the Kremlin gate, Patriarch Nikon came galloping on his horse in a panic, and shouted from afar: "Your Majesty, don't enter the palace!" Don't enter the palace! Someone wants to put Your Majesty under house arrest, Your Majesty quickly go back to the city to command your soldiers, and leave! Come on! ”

Alexei was shocked, at this time, Basakov, who was ambushing the palace gate, saw that the matter was revealed, and knew that if he didn't catch the tsar, he would definitely die a miserable death, for the sake of his life, he immediately rushed out with his troops, and while rushing out, he also shouted: "Someone wants to put Your Majesty under house arrest, protect Your Majesty!" Protect Your Majesty! ”

Alexei didn't know what to do, and said that he was really here to protect himself, and he didn't move for a while, and the patriarch Nikon was so shocked that he couldn't stop shouting: "You dare!" Your Majesty, go away! It's that they want to put Your Majesty under house arrest, Your Majesty go quickly! Come on! ”

Alexei came to his senses and immediately turned his horse's head to flee, but Basakov couldn't care much about it, and led his troops to kill dozens of Alexei's guards, and at the same time shot Alexei's mount with an arrow.

Dozens of Alexei's guards guarded him around, desperately resisting, but there were few people, and they couldn't rush out of the left and right, and people were constantly being cut off their horses.

"Your Majesty hold on a little longer," shouted Patriarch Nikon, turning his horse's head and galloping away in the direction of the city walls.

Knowing that he was going to rescue the soldiers, Basakov was anxious, and he took the lead and launched an even more fierce offensive, while Alexei's guards fought to the death.

I thought it was a silent coup d'état, and I could easily put Tsar Alek under house arrest, but I didn't expect it to fall short, and now things are getting bigger, and it's out of control!
