Why was the promotion not due to his merit in suppressing the Prince of Zhenbei?

It is self-evident that such a grand banquet has a political purpose.

As for Deng Mingyuan, it is not important at all. Although he is a direct descendant, he is not the eldest son. He was exiled to Weizhou for three years in exchange for the position of left minister of the Ministry of War. It is not a loss at all, and he is also appreciated by His Majesty. This is a big profit.

"Oh, it turns out we did it together. Do you think it's time to send Brother Mingyuan a farewell, or to congratulate him?"

Guan Ning still had a mean expression.

"What a deep bond between father and son!"

Bai Yong just finished speaking.

"What a deep love between father and son."

"you……"

"What a deep bond between father and son!"

The resentment is rising, and Bai Yong can't even get a word in. You're not done yet, so you're keeping an eye on me, right?

Guan Ning's words, combined with that mean expression, were indescribably shameless.
