Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

Hearing this, Zhu Di couldn't help but frown and nodded slightly.

"In that case, let's discuss this later!"

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

All the ministers suddenly became happy.

After these courtiers left, Zhu Di's face turned gloomy.

On the side, Prince Zhu Gaochi also had an angry face.

"Dad, each of these courtiers spoke in a high-sounding way, but they were obviously trying to suppress Marquis Dinghai!"

"Humph, a group of officials all have their own selfish ideas, but they completely ignore it. It was Marquis Dinghai who reported it to them, gave them a salary increase, and gave them a year-end bonus!"

"Why are they like this..."

Zhu Gaochi looked angry.

Zhu Di said: "It doesn't matter, we can discuss the merits after the Annan matter is settled!"

"Father is wise!"

……

And in Dinghaihou Mansion.

Guo An was sitting leisurely in a soft chair, crossing his legs and drinking hot tea.

But suddenly, he saw Cao Guogong Li Jinglong walking in excitedly.

"I've met Mr. Cao Guo!"

Guo An quickly stood up to greet him with a surprised look on his face.

Li Jinglong instantly showed a displeased look on his face, "How come I haven't seen you for a few days, and why is Brother Guo so invisible?"

Guo An had no choice but to smile apologetically, "Brother Li, please forgive me. I've been back for a long time and I didn't react at the moment!"

Li Jinglong smiled with satisfaction, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, you will get used to it if you call it a few times!"

With that said, Li Jinglong had already imitated Guo An's actions just now and lay down on a soft chair on the other side.

Instantly, my whole body felt soft and warm, extremely comfortable!

Couldn't help but moan in comfort.

"At this time, brother Guo is still so leisurely and carefree, which makes me extremely envious!"

"Ok?"

Guo An noticed something was wrong and couldn't help but ask: "I dare to ask Brother Li, but what happened?"

Li Jinglong was stunned for a moment, stared at Guo An closely for a long time, and then asked with a strange expression: "Brother Guo, don't you know?"

Guo An looked confused, "Brother Li, please tell me!"

Li Jinglong said hurriedly: "In today's court meeting, Your Majesty wants to discuss the matter of canonizing Brother Guo as the Duke of the country? No one informed Brother Guo?"

"Canonize the Duke! Me?"

Guo An pointed at himself with a look of disbelief.

"Exactly!"

Li Jinglong nodded with an affirmative look on his face, and then he looked weird again, "Every honorable and important minister in the entire capital already knows about such a big event, but you don't know?"

"I don't know!"

Guo An nodded helplessly, "I rarely interact with people, but I can actually be canonized as a Duke?"

The Duke of the country is far from being comparable to the prince!

Resting with the country and blessing his descendants, such a good thing, could Guo An get his turn?

"Of course you can!"

Li Jinglong nodded with certainty, "Korea, Japan, Tatar, Annan...these, especially Japan and Tatar, are the most serious worries of the Ming Dynasty.

Brother Guo not only solved the problem, but also allowed me to open up and expand the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Such a huge contribution is enough to make me a duke! "

As he said this, he remembered something, and Li Jinglong's eyes showed a somewhat gloomy look.

"However, according to the temperament of those civil servants, they will not let Brother Guo become a duke so easily!"

"Those civil servants!"

Guo An couldn't help but sigh, "Weak and incompetent externally, fighting for power and profit internally, and framing heroes for no reason..."

"What Brother Guo said is absolutely true!"

Li Jinglong nodded in agreement, "Especially the imperial censor Chen Ying is an insidious villain. I just don't know why Your Majesty would trust such a villain?"

"Your majesty is wise, he must have his purpose!"

Guo An said slowly.

Li Jinglong glanced at Guo An strangely and nodded slightly.

"Speaking of which, I don't know why Chen Ying keeps insisting on Annan's affairs..."

"Yes, he is just fabricating it out of thin air. He is not as noble as Brother Li. He knows that he cannot do anything, but he still insists on..."

Guo An also looked puzzled.

These days.

Chen Ying, the censor of Youdu, has been insisting on strictly investigating Li Jinglong's affairs in Annan, which has already spread in the capital.

Guo An and Li Jinglong talked for a long time, and finally the two of them were lying on soft chairs, drowsy.

I don't know how long it took, but Xu Yong walked in from the outside with a gloomy face.

Guo An opened his eyes in confusion, "What happened?"

Xu Yong said angrily: "Master Hou, the imperial censor Chen Ying actually held on to the matter of the remnants of the Annan thieves at the court meeting...

The matter of canonizing the Marquis as a Duke can only be postponed until later! "

"This bitch?"

Li Jinglong suddenly became furious, "You are a bitch who harms people's futures and will not die a good death. Brother Guo, don't worry, just forget it if this bitch framed me, it won't hurt anyway.       However, he dared to involve Brother Guo in this matter. At the court meeting to discuss Guo's brother's position as Duke!

In this matter, not only am I going to take action, Wu Xun and I will not let this thief go! "

"Chen Ying, the censor of the right capital..."

Guo An murmured to himself, recalling the rumors he had heard about this Youdu censor in the past few years, he couldn't help but sneer with a look of disdain.

"It seems that this person has been obsessed with Annan's remnant thieves from the very beginning, and it was prepared by His Majesty to confer on me and other Annan meritorious officials.

Even the rumors about me around the capital are because of this? "

"rumor?"

Li Jinglong's eyes flashed and he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Guo, what are these rumors?"

"It is said that when our Shenji Battalion was conquering Annan, too many people in Annan were killed by artillery, which was too harmful to the peace of the world... However, there will be no snow in the Ming Dynasty this winter, and there will be a drought next year..."

Just after Guo An finished speaking, Li Jinglong scolded angrily, "Those thieves are really full of nonsense, they can think of such things.

How many people did our Ming Dynasty kill when we resisted Bao Yuan or conquered Mobei? How come there were no major natural disasters? "

"Okay, okay, brother Li, have a sip of tea to calm down!"

Guo An smiled softly, without any hint of anger.

A trace of surprise flashed in Li Jinglong's eyes, "Brother Guo is not angry, or is he still so calm?"

"The matter has come to this, there is no point in being anxious!"

Guo An wrote lightly, "Brother Li, how much credit we have done, your Majesty and the people of the world have their own minds.

As for the censor Chen Ying, who has done such evil things, we can only secretly find out some of his violations of law and discipline, so that he can be sent to prison at once and never be reincarnated. "

"That's how it should be!"

Li Jinglong looked admiring, "This person is so vicious. I don't know how many loyal ministers have been framed by him. We must not let him go easily!"

"What Brother Li said is absolutely true!"

With that said, Li Jinglong and Guo An discussed it some more before leaving aggressively.

On the second day, news about the court meeting spread throughout the court.

All the generals couldn't help but feel angry.

As for those civil servants, most of them were silent, and only a small half were full of joy!

It’s another two days.

An urgent announcement was made from Annan, eight hundred miles from Annan, to rush into the capital.

"More than 2,120 elders of Annan came forward and said: The Chen family has been killed by the Li thieves and there is no successor. Annan is a land of China, and I am still in the army, and I am in Tongnei County."

"it is good!"

After reading the memorial, Zhu Di was overjoyed.

Zhu Gaochi also looked happy, "Dad, in this case, we can directly make Annan our Daming Prefecture County!"

"That's how it should be!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly.

Immediately, he turned to Yishiha who was standing aside and said, "Inform the Cabinet, Six Ministries, and Six Sections, Lord Cao Guo, Marquis Dinghai..."

"The slaves obey the orders!"

Yi Shiha walked out quickly.

soon.

A eunuch came to Guo Mansion.

"Your Majesty summons you urgently?"

Guo An's expression changed and he quickly followed the eunuch out.

"May I ask why Your Majesty summoned me?"

On the way, Guo An couldn't help but asked curiously.

The eunuch hurriedly replied: "Reporting to Marquis Dinghai, I don't know about this matter. However, this time, His Majesty also summoned Cao Guogong, as well as a group of cabinet ministers, ministers and Liuke Liuke..."

"Called so many people?"

Guo An's eyes lit up and he was thoughtful.

Thinking about it, Guo An's pace subconsciously accelerated a lot.

By the time Guo An entered the Fengtian Hall, Li Jinglong and all the court officials had already arrived.

"The humble minister Dinghaihou Guo An has met with His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Guo Qing, please forgive me!"

It can be clearly heard that Zhu Di's tone was much happier, and Guo An felt at ease.

Guo Any stood up as he was told and stood aside.

Yu Xin, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, asked expectantly: "May I ask Your Majesty, what's the big deal in calling Wei Chen and others here in such a hurry?"

Zhu Di said loudly: "Annan is urgently reporting. More than 2,120 elders of Annan are jointly submitting the petition, begging for Annan to join our Ming Dynasty and become our state and county!"

"what?"

All the ministers were suddenly surprised.

"Your Majesty, is this serious?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, our Ming Dynasty killed so many young men in Annan, and those elders in Annan actually begged to join my Ming Dynasty..."

All the ministers were in disbelief.

They have never encountered such a thing before, or even heard of it!
