Chapter 69: Shandong History

Yue Su left Tianxiang Yage and returned directly to the back house of Shuntian Mansion. After arriving at the study, he told Li Haoquan: "You should run immediately to find your brother Li Haoran and ask him to meet Eunuch Liu. What will happen in the court today?"

Please inquire about everything and report back to me."

Regarding what Jiang Jie said, Yue Su is now half-convinced. The White Lotus Sect has already rebelled, and Fang Congzhe would never joke about national affairs. If this defeat continues for a while, wouldn't the country be even more "chaotic".

Li Haoquan immediately took the order and went there, while Yue Su sent someone to send a message to Xing Ying, asking him to send someone to Shandong immediately to investigate the situation there.

At noon, brother Li Haoran returned to the government office and went to the study to see Yue Su. After the meeting, after a few polite words, Li Haoran reported to Yue Su everything he had learned from Liu Minguo.

Today's court meeting was a complete "chaos". First, the eunuch party launched an attack, demanding that the culprit be investigated, and the target was directed at Fang Congzhe. Fang Old Fox was also prepared to fight, and made all his involvement clear, saying that he was also listening to Yue

According to the information sent by your Excellency, I really believe that the White Lotus Sect has been wiped out. In addition, the prisoners were interrogated by Duke Wei. You didn’t say that Xu Hongru was fake. You all said so, so I can only act according to the rules.

What does this have to do with me? Does it mean that corrupt officials should not be dealt with?

After all, this responsibility has been placed on Yue Su's head, saying that he and his men did not know the situation, made random reports, took credit for rewards, and caused harm to the world. Anyway, Mr. Yue was not in court this morning, so he said he should go.

The emperor was really affectionate and kind to Yue Su. When he saw this situation, he immediately said that now is not the time to investigate the responsibility. Yue Qing is ill and will investigate again in the future. At the moment, the Shandong religious bandits are causing "rebellion" and attacking the city.

, it must be wiped out as soon as possible, so you can make up your mind quickly.

As Jiang Jie expected, General Fang Congzhe immediately said that there was only one person available in the court who could take on this important task, and that was Gao Di, the Minister of War. Therefore, Gao Di was unanimously recommended to be the governor of Shandong regarding the religious bandits.

Gao Di was also self-aware. How could he know how to fight? If he had to leave, he would be like a meat bun beating a dog. He kept saying that he was not capable of taking on such a big responsibility.

Fang Congzhe has already taken the lead. How can the officials of the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang let him go? They said one after another that Mr. Gao should not be humble. No one else in the court can take on this important task except you. You are the Minister of the Ministry of War. If you don't go, who will?

ah.

This is indeed the case. Apart from Gao Di, there was no one in the court who could be the governor of Shandong. It can be said that Eunuch Wei had always wanted to squeeze out Sun Chengzong of Liaodong, and then let Gao Di replace him, just because he was anxious to deal with it.

Yue Su has not implemented it yet. Something happened in Shandong now, and I want to choose someone else to go. Even Eunuch Wei can't think of who to send. He can't suggest that Gao Di go to Shanhaiguan to replace Sun Chengzong. This idea is feasible, but it is far away.

Water can't dissolve the near fire. When Sun Chengzong comes back, Jinan will probably be lost.

The debate in the court continued, and in the end, even Zhu Carpenter became impatient and simply issued a straightforward decree, ordering Gao Di, governor of Shandong, to lead 30,000 troops and set off for the expedition tomorrow.

After listening to Li Haoran's narration, Yue Su's nose was almost out of breath and crooked. How could it be like this? Isn't this a mistake for the country and the people? Yue Su immediately ordered the sedan to be prepared and entered the palace to meet the saint.

As soon as he arrived at the Forbidden City and handed over the sign, the imperial eunuch immediately went into the palace to report, and soon came out to deliver a message saying that the emperor had invited him. Under the guidance of the eunuch, Yue Su came to the Yangxin Hall, and before entering the door, he knelt down to say hello.

"The sinful minister Yue Su, long live my emperor, long live him!"

Zhu Youxiao was obviously not in a very good mood today. He did not run over to help her as he did in the past. He just stopped and said, "I love you, please excuse me and come in to talk."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yue Su stood up, walked into the palace, and when he was still five steps away from Carpenter Zhu, he knelt down again, "Your Majesty, I have heard about the matter in Shandong, and I am here to come.

Please forgive me."

"Get up." Zhu Carpenter said seriously: "The gangsters have been planning to do this with you for a long time. Even if there is no such thing, they will still cause chaos."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for defending me. I am ashamed and unworthy. The "chaos" in Shandong should not have been so serious. It was all caused by my momentary negligence, which led to this huge disaster. This matter happened because of me, and I am willing to take full responsibility for it.

Suppress the rebels and share your Majesty's worries." Yue Su knelt on the ground and did not get up, but said in a serious voice.

Upon hearing what Yue Su said, Zhu Carpenter's eyes lit up and he said, "Does the Qing family have a strategy to defeat the enemy?"

"Although the religious bandits in Shandong are rampant for a while, they are just a mob. If good generals are sent there, they can be wiped out in one fell swoop. Today I heard that at the court meeting, the emperor issued an order to invite Gao Di, the Minister of War, to go and governor Shandong. I thought

Gao Dihao has experience in commanding on the spot. If the command in the battle is improper and the army is defeated, the banditry will become more serious and it will be difficult to deal with it for a while. Moreover, Shandong is close to Zhili. If the bandits take advantage of the opportunity to win, they will attack directly.

Capital Master, what should we do?" Yue Su said, still kneeling.

"My dear, get up quickly." Zhu Carpenter finally took a few steps forward and pulled Yue Su up. After the emperor said "Thank you and long live", he said: "At the court meeting today, Fang Congzhe and others tried their best to recommend Gao Di.

, Gao Di escaped one after another, and the court also had real people available, so I had no choice but to send him there. To be honest, I really wanted to let Teacher Sun come back and go to Shandong to suppress the bandits, but time was in a hurry and it was too late. I also thought of my love for you, dear.

He once put down the chaos in Guizhou, and he was quite successful in the battle, but he was in poor health, alas..."

At the end of the sentence, Zhu Carpenter shook his head.

"Your Majesty, I would like to recommend someone. If this person goes to Shandong, he will definitely be able to exterminate the religious bandits, quell the war, and relieve the king of your worries. If he fails in the battle, I am willing to pay him his fortune. Seeing that the time is right, Xing Su immediately said pertinently.

.

"I don't know who is so valued by the Qing family that he is willing to use his wealth and life as a guarantee. I think this person must be extraordinary." Zhu Youxiao looked at Yue Su with a smile. This was his first time in a day.

Show a smile.

"Your Majesty, this person is none other than Xiong Tingbi, the former Liaodong manager. Xiong Tingbi is an outstanding figure in the world, with excellent civil and military skills. As long as he goes forward, it will be just around the corner to pacify the religious bandits." Yue Su said with certainty.

"Xiong Tingbi, is this the person you took away from the Ministry of Punishment Prison when you asked for favors from me last time?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Exactly." Yue Su nodded and said.

"Okay, I believe in your vision, and I hope that Xiong Tingbi will not disappoint me and the Qing family."

After Zhu Carpenter finished speaking, he raised his head and shouted loudly: "Call Liu Mingguo in!"

Although Eunuch Liu is the chief manager of the Royal Engineering Team, he still serves as the Emperor's personal attendant and has been waiting outside the door. When the Emperor called him, he quickly ran in and bowed, "I see you, Your Majesty."

"Go and deliver a decree to me, exempting Governor Gao Di from his errand in Shandong and allowing him to stay in Beijing and continue to serve as military commander. In addition, deliver a decree to re-appoint Xiong Tingbi and promote him to Shandong Manager. He will immediately order 30,000 troops to go to Shandong to suppress the war.

bandit!"

"My slave obeys the order!"

Yue Su's words immediately changed the emperor's mind. The emperor's words said that whoever is told to come up can come up, and whoever is told to come down must come down.

After this decree was passed down, the two people who received it were all happy. Gao Di was spared the task of taking the blame, and Xiong Tingbi got what he wanted, and his official position was restored.

The eunuchs are also relatively happy, Gao Di is one of them, and it also proves that Yue Su and Fang Congzhe are not of the same mind, and Master Yue still puts the overall situation first.

After the three parties in Qi, Chu, and Zhejiang heard about it, they were inevitably a little dissatisfied. Many of them were scolding them, saying that if Yue Su wanted to do this, he should at least discuss it with Mr. Fang Ge. Everyone had the confidence to do something, but they didn't even think about it.

, when you recommended Gao Di, did you discuss it with Mr. Yue?

After another conversation with Carpenter Zhu, Yue Su left the Forbidden City. It was already past time. Yue Su did not go back to Shuntian Mansion directly. He asked the bearers to carry the sedan back first. He only took Tie Qiu and Li Haoquan with him, and the three of them went to Tianxiang Yage

.

The brothel madam's ability to remember people was not very good. When she saw Yue Su, she immediately remembered that it was after the morning, so she went to greet Yue Su and asked if he was still looking for Miss Qin Xin.

Yue Su nodded, and the madam immediately let the big teapot lead the way to Qin Xin's room on the second floor. When she got outside, she knocked on the door. When the little maid saw that it was Yue Su, she said with a smile: "My girl knew this early in the morning.

The young master will come, and he is waiting inside now."

"I didn't expect your girl to be good at pinching." Yue Suxin walked in. The big teapot left alone, while Tie Qiu and Li Haoquan came in and stood on the side.

Yue Su walked into the inner room and opened the door, only to find that Jiang Jie was not inside, only Qin Xin was sitting on the chair.

Qin Xin stood up, bowed and said, "Master Yue, you are here."

Yue Su nodded lightly and said, "Girl, you don't have to be polite..." As he said that, he glanced left and right and saw Jiang Jie's trace in the room, and then said, "I wonder where husband Jiang is now?"

Qin Xin picked up a letter from the table, walked towards Yue Su with light steps, walked up to Yue Su, and said: "Husband Jiang said that your Excellency will definitely come today, so he left a letter here.

Let me forward it to your lord. If your lord has seen it, then you will know how to deal with it."

After speaking, he presented the letter to Yue Su with both hands.

Yue Su reached out to take it, took out the letter from the envelope, and opened it to read. There were only a few sentences written in the letter, and the content was roughly this. If you want to see Jiang, please redeem Qin Xin first. Of course, you can also use it.

Other means, in short, just get the person out of the brothel. When the time comes, Qin Xin will bring the adults to find Jiang.

After reading this letter, Yue Su couldn't help but laugh and said: "This is really what makes heroes from ancient times so romantic. Well, leave your affairs to me."

Yue Su has already understood Jiang Jie's talents. Talents like this are exactly what he needs. A thousand pieces of gold are easy to come by, but a general is hard to find. How could he miss such a talent? Moreover, with his current identity and status,

It is not easy to get someone out of a brothel.
