Receiving the news from Gao Ming, Deng Jiugong has embarked on the return journey, this big victory, the main force of Donglu has lost more than half, and it is no longer able to use troops against the imperial court, and the empire that has been in a state of war has finally been respite.

It's just that the king is mediocre, and he is used as a gun by a fox spirit to dare to beat his daughter's idea. Deng Jiugong thinks it's funny when he thinks about it, there are smart people and stupid people in this world, but it is still rare to see such stupid people who are not self-powerful and self-destructive to the Great Wall.

Although Daji is scheming, but in the end the pattern is limited, thinking that if she confuses the king, she can do whatever she wants, she is simply sitting in a well and watching the sky, since she is looking for death by herself, then she can't complain about herself.

"Dashuai, I, Zhang Kui, have never admired a person since I was successful in cultivating and worshiping as the defender of a city. But the trip to Donglu really opened my eyes, the commander used soldiers and strategies, and the five bodies that the general admired were thrown to the ground. ”

When the army was about to arrive at the rope pool, Zhang Kuicui stepped forward and said his inner words in front of Deng Jiugong. He is a strong man who values love and righteousness, and if he were not admired to the extreme, he would never behave like this.

Deng Jiugong said with a smile: "General Zhang's ghostly speed is also an eye-opener for me!"

"In front of me is Michi, and the end will be separated from the big handsome. ”

Zhang Kui sighed, more than a month of marching and fighting had made him accustomed to this kind of life, and it was inevitable that he would be a little reluctant to part suddenly. Deng Jiugong persuaded: "General Zhang, there is no banquet in the world, and this time we are separated just for a better reunion next time." ”

"That's what the marshal said. ”

Zhang Kui arched his hand, rode his mount to another way, and quickly disappeared into a cloud of dust.

......

After returning to the court to rest for one night, the next day the king ascended to the early dynasty, and as usual, all incumbent officials in the court were not allowed to be absent.

"Master Deng, congratulations, congratulations!"

At the gate of the palace, an official trotted forward, congratulating Deng Jiugong with a smile on his face. Deng Jiu said fairly: "This is the joy of the court, Deng Mou, as a minister, is the efficiency of His Majesty, this is his duty." ”

"Lord Deng is modest, who doesn't know that you are the pillar of the country, the Optimus Jade Pillar, if it weren't for you to fight for Your Majesty, I am afraid that the world would have been in chaos long ago. ”

Deng Jiugong glanced at the visitor in surprise and said, "I don't know the name of the adult." ”

The man's spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly said: "Xiaguan Deng Kun, I have seen Lord Deng." "Deng Jiugong is a celebrity in front of the Son of Heaven, and when he returns from his great achievements this time, he is only afraid of overshadowing Zhang Qian, he has the same surname as him, and he may still be a family hundreds of years ago. If you tie up with him, you will not be able to fly.

"Deng Kun. ”

Deng Jiugong frowned, this name is a little familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere, by the way, this person is not Huang Feihu's uncle. In the original book, it was he who joined forces with Xiqi Li Yingwai, killed Bian Ji, and let the Xiqi army enter the customs. For this kind of person who is in Cao Ying's heart in Han, Deng Jiugong disdains to make friends, so he said: "Lord Deng, the court meeting is imminent, and this handsome will not accompany him." ”

"Lord Deng, wait. ”

When I arrived at the Jiujie Palace, the king had not yet come, and the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were discussed, and when I saw Deng Jiugong, the hall was suddenly silent. Then everyone stepped forward and hugged Deng Jiugong, scrambling to be the first to pat the horse.

Most of these civil and military officials are villains who tend to be inflammatory, and it is really difficult for them to let them settle down and go into battle to kill the enemy. But let them say something flattering, and it will come with their mouths open.

"Ladies and gentlemen, be quiet. ”

The micron on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and after saying a word, everyone returned to their positions.

Weizi stepped forward, greeted Deng Jiugong, and said with a smile: "Xiaguan He Dashuai has returned from a great victory!" Deng Jiugong won the battle and put down the Donglu Rebellion, which was a great joy for the whole country for the imperial court.

Deng Jiu said fairly: "Your Highness is serious, the food of the king, the matter of loyalty." ”

"That's right, if the Manchu Dynasty is full of loyal ministers like Lord Deng, why would there be wars in the world, and how could Bai'an be displaced. "Weizi has a strong temper, as long as Dashang can continue, he is not afraid of offending civil and military officials, even if it is death.

Deng Jiugong smiled faintly and said: "Your Highness's words are a bit extreme, chickens, dogs, cows and horses, each performing its own duties." Deng will only have some strength, and it is okay to fight the enemy on the battlefield, but if you talk about peace and stability, you have to rely on His Royal Highness and civil and military officials. ”

He has done a lot of complicity and rebellion in private, but in the eyes of hundreds of officials in the court, he is an out-and-out image of a loyal minister, and he also takes himself as an example, which makes Deng Jiugong a little crying and laughing, is it that the image of a loyal minister he played is too successful.

Weizi smiled awkwardly, and said: "Lord Deng, now that Chongyingluan in Northern Xinjiang is huge, the men and horses sent by the imperial court have suffered a big defeat, which has caused the face of the imperial court to be damaged. The lower official dared to ask, the adults have a strategy to suppress the thieves and calm the chaos. ”

"This ...... Your Highness, Deng has just returned from Donglu, and he doesn't know anything about the affairs of Northern Xinjiang, so how can he come up with a good plan in a hurry. His Royal Highness is not in a hurry, wait for Deng to understand the war clearly, and then discuss with His Highness in detail. ”

Weizi said: "What Lord Deng said is extremely true. ”

......

When the king went to court, he saw Deng Jiugong at a glance and hurriedly announced that he would go forward.

Deng Jiugong stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Weichen went out this time and fought several battles with Jiang Wenhuan, annihilating a total of 150,000 enemy troops, beheading the enemy's Shouping Ling King, and the remnants of Beihai under his command. It's just that Jiang Wenhuan, a thief, is greedy for life and afraid of death, seeing that the situation is not good, he led the remnants to retreat to Laizhou Mansion, and the minister wanted to capture Laizhou, and captured Jiang Wenhuan to return to Chaoge to ask for the crime, but the grain and grass in the army were not enough, and the minister couldn't, so he had to borrow grain from the nearby city, and he was told that there was no food, and the minister had to lead the army back to Chaoge. ”

Of the 500,000 stone grain transported from Chongcheng, Deng Jiugong only kept 200,000 stone, and the rest of the grain was transported to Laizhou Mansion by Chen Qi.

The king of Xuan said with a pleasant face: "Deng Qing is worthy of being my minister, and in just one month's effort, Jiang Wenhuan was greatly injured, and he was very relieved to do something for me." ”

"But Weichen did not complete the task assigned by His Majesty, and Jiang Wenhuan is still at large in Laizhou. ”

King Xuan said lightly: "No defense, without King Pingling's advice, what kind of climate can Jiang Wenhuan become." Back then, he had 300,000 troops and couldn't capture a single Wandering Soul Pass, let alone more than 100,000 horses. ”

Deng Jiu said fairly: "Your Majesty is wise. ”

King Su glanced at him and said, "Deng Qing, this time you have made great contributions to the imperial court, and I want to reward you and set an example for the ministers." ”

Deng Jiugong was stunned, thinking that the king was going to reward some gold, silver and jewelry, so he said: "Your Majesty, this great achievement is the merit of the soldiers who fought bravely to kill the enemy, and the minister just did what the minister should do, and he did not dare to do it." ”

The king said with a smile: "This is a bad statement, if you didn't arrange the troops, they would not have been able to make this achievement, and your credit is greater than all of them." Deng Qing, you are now the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, and I want to crown you as the king of Pingnan and put down the rebellion for the imperial court. ”

"King Pingnan. ”

Deng Jiugong was stunned, and the Manchu Dynasty was taken aback, but he didn't expect the king to value Deng Jiugong so much. During his reign for decades, he only crowned two people as kings, the first was King Pingling, and the second was King Wucheng; one was to appease the barbarians and prevent them from causing chaos, and the other was to show the emperor's grace, after all, the Huang family had been loyal to the court for several generations.

"Yes, Aiqing has guarded Sanshan Pass for many years, repelled Eshun many times, and made great contributions to the imperial court. I know that your ancestral home is in the south, so I specially give you the word Pingnan, which has the meaning of pacifying the war. ”

With a smile on his face, the king glanced at Zhang Qian, Zhang Qian comprehended, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty Shengming, Lord Deng has made outstanding contributions, and the king is expected by everyone." ”

Although Weizi did not agree with the king, he still hoped that Deng Jiugong would go to calm Chongyingluan as soon as possible, and then came out and said: "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

When the civil and military officials saw this formation, they couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and at this time, who dared to risk losing their heads to object, so they said one after another: "The ministers seconded it." ”

The dust has settled like this, and there has been no turmoil, which is to be placed at the beginning of the reign of the king, it is simply a thing that does not dare to be similar, Deng Jiugong is still digesting this reward, he feels that things are not so simple.
