Beijing, Shangshu Room.

Zhu Qiyu is handling the memorial, and Cheng Jing and Xing'an are on the side.

The little eunuch came in to report that the cabinet minister Li Xian, the Marquis of Fengcheng, was here.

Zhu Qiyu threw down his imperial pen and announced Li Xian to come in.

Li Xian presented a memorial.

"This is the memorial of Duke Zhongguo Su Cheng. He was ordered to inspect Datong. Unexpectedly, Guo Deng occupied the General's Office and blocked him from entering Datong. In desperation, Duke Zhongguo captured Guo Deng on the charge of causing rebellion. Unexpectedly, Datong defenders broke out even more civil strife."

"There were Han, Song, generals Li, Cai, and others who were in trouble, with the intention of rescuing Guo Deng, and were suppressed by Duke Zhongguo."

Zhu Qiyu frowned:

"How dare Guo Deng be so bold? This is the army of the court. How could he be a mere deputy general, mobilizing so many soldiers?"

Li Xian explained:

"Guo Deng is the deputy general officer of Datong. Duke Zhongguo has been stationed in Xuanfu for a long time due to his health. He has never managed Guo Deng very much. Guo Deng is the grandson of Wuding Marquis Guo Ying. He has a high-quality family and connections. He has been in Datong for a long time and has been in Datong for decades. It is not surprising that he has such connections."

Zhu Qiyu still doesn't understand, but this does not affect how to deal with Guo Deng.

"Did Duke Zhongguo say how to deal with Guo Deng?"

Zhu Qiyu closed the memorial and asked Li Xian.

Li Xian stroked his long beard:

"Duke Zhongguo did not mention it, but I discussed the matter with several cabinet ministers and suggested that Your Majesty give this memorial to the court to test the court's attitude towards this matter."

Zhu Qiyu was a little puzzled:

"Just just deal with Guo Deng directly. Why do you need to test the court officials' attitudes and cause trouble for the superiors? What's the point of saying?"

Li Xian had no choice but to continue explaining:

"Your Majesty, this matter can be big or small. If the result of the court's discussion is small, and Guo Deng is gently exposed, it means that the court officials are still afraid of Duke Zhongguo, and it will be difficult for Duke Zhongguo to enter the Dynasty to assist in the government."

"On the contrary, if the court officials think they should deal with Guo Deng a lot, it means that everyone has no fear of the military ministers, and it will be natural for Duke Zhongguo to enter the court."

Zhu Qiyu laughed when she heard this:

"Then let's go to the court to discuss it, but I think Duke Zhongguo is not necessarily willing to enter the court. He told me during the New Year that it was his goal to open up the Silk Road."

Li Xian beat his legs and said in a tired tone:

"Your Majesty clearly understands that it is naturally good to open up the Silk Road, but I am getting older and the Marquis of Changping is ill all day long. I guess it is not a good time for the New Year.

If one day minister and Changping Hou left the west at the same time, no one would support him in the court, and the great situation that His Majesty had just created for the military minister would be gone."

Zhu Qiyu looked solemn when she heard this:

"Is Fengcheng Hou in good health?"

"Cheng Jing, I sent an order to order the imperial physician to go to the mansion with the Marquis of Fengcheng to treat Fengcheng at any time."

After Li Xian thanked him, he spoke for a while and then left.

The Marquis of Fengcheng went and Shu Liang entered Shangshu Room.

Zhu Qiyu laughed and scolded:

"How many days have you not seen your grandson? Why, what's the good thing?"

Shu Liang submitted the secret report:

"This is a report sent back by a slave in Datong, Xuanfu. Duke Zhongguo created good steel in Xuanfu. The knife made iron like mud and was so powerful that it was said that Duke Zhongguo was preparing to build a single-eyed mud."

"Datong Deputy General Guo Deng wanted to give Duke Zhongguo a warning, but he did not expect that he was detained by Duke Zhongguo's backhand. The soldiers directly under Guo Deng's west camp intended to rescue Guo Deng, but were extinguished by Duke Zhongguo's backhand."

Zhu Qiyu picked up the two pieces of steel presented by Shu Liang and touched them gently. The jingling sound was pleasant, and Zhu Qiyu's face was puzzled:

"This will make a good knife that cuts iron like mud?"

Shu Liang nodded:

"It has been made, and it cut off the scimitar of the Oirats with one knife."

Zhu Qiyu put down the steel block and asked Shu Liang:

"This is not a good thing, let's talk about it, what else is there?"

Shu Liang reported with one finger:

"Your Majesty clearly understands that there is indeed something good. The Tatars Deputy Khan Agdorji intends to enter Datong to rob, but he does not want to be found by Duke Zhong's spies. Duke Zhong sent troops to lie in Shawo and defeated Agdorji."

"Agdorji fled to Mount Kane, and was ambushed by Duke Zhongguo again. Agdorji was shot and killed by a general named Heiwa. Most of the Tatars in his army were wiped out. Duke Zhongguo made great contributions again."

Zhu Qiyu is very happy:

"Okay, okay, I captured Tuotuobuhua last time, and shot Agedorji this time. Duke Zhongguo is really my strong point. It would be great if he could also take back the land of Fengzhou lost by the Supreme Emperor."

Shu Liang immediately made a memorial and said:

"Your Majesty, the slave dares to guarantee the promise. Duke Zhongguo is definitely willing. The border generals from Xuanfu and Datong were raised by Duke Zhongguo to become brave generals. Although there was no major war in the battle with the Oirat Tatars, small victories continued."

"As soon as the soldiers of Xuanfu mentioned war, they would be wailing forward. Inu saw that in less than half a year, the soldiers of Datong would be led by Duke Zhong to scream."

Zhu Qiyu nodded.

The next day, the Ministry of War presented a memorial to Sucheng.

For a time, the government and the country were in a big uproar, and the civil servants had a dispute over how to deal with Guo Deng for the first time.

Yu Qian believed that it should be dealt with according to regulations. Guo Deng committed rebellion, which was accomplice and rebellion. Even if the three tribes did not cause harm, he would be executed.

However, Wang Zhi, the Minister of Personnel, believed that it was not easy for the imperial court to choose generals. Guo Deng was also the grandson of Wuding Hou. Thinking of past grace, he would also give up his lenient deeds.

Wang Wen of the Censorate believes that he should be punished severely and he will be punished. Sooner or later, Guo Deng will dare to rebel.

However, the Ministry of Rites believed that Wang Wen made a big fuss, just a small mistake in military mobilization, and did not need to rise to the point of plotting against rebellion.

Zhu Qiyu had to make the decision by himself.

Guo Deng invaded the emperor and made trouble, got rid of all the dispatches and returned to Beijing to wait for investigation.

Thinking of Datong's location in the northern part, he also transferred Tao Jin, the general guard of Zijing Pass, to the north, and led the deputy general officer of Datong to assist Sucheng in handling Datong's military affairs.

Heiwa shot and killed Agdorji, and made outstanding achievements and was awarded the title of Dingxiangbo.

The other soldiers who had made meritorious were rewarded and the Ministry of War decided to formulate the Datong War Report.

When the decree was passed to Datong, Su Cheng was scolding Sun Yong who came from Xuanfu.

"You are the deputy general of the Xuanfu garrison. You dare to come to Datong if you send me a message. If you lose the Xuanfu, you will lose my head."

Sun Yong was scolded so much that he couldn't raise his head, but he still submitted a secret report in his hand.

"This is the news that the night of no recruitment lurking in Shajing. Once Agdorji died, the Tatar tribe was in turmoil. The small tribes everywhere did not accept Tuotuobuhua's son and had a dispute with the tribes loyal to the Golden Family."

"The Ola tribe sent troops to occupy some grasslands in the northern part of the Tatar tribe. It can be said that the Tatars are now fighting everywhere, Duke."

Sun Yong's eyes flashed with golden light.

Su Cheng looked at the secret report and narrowed his eyes, quickly measuring gains and losses, judging how many credible things there were.

At this time, Heiwa, wearing a regular robe, entered the rank of the officials, stood in front of the patriarch's case, and bent down to salute Su Cheng.

"Mr., Your Majesty's will has arrived, it is a reward."
