After reading the memorial in his hand, Li Qin placed it on the table in front of him.
At the same time, his face showed obvious anger, but he then suppressed his anger.
He did not become angry and punish his subordinates because of this memorial.
Especially Dugu Yu, who has now become a high-ranking official in Xuanfu.
Li Qin then immediately ordered someone to bring him the intelligence on the Embroidered Uniform Guards who had been monitoring Dugu Yu recently.
He also arranged for the Embroidered Uniform Guard to monitor his generals who were not of the same surname.
Soon, all the recent intelligence about Dugu Yu and Xuanfu was sent over.
Li Qin looked at the intelligence in his hand about Xuanfu and Dugu Yu.
Their complexions were getting worse and worse; they had been distracted by various things lately.
If I'm not careful enough with these generals from other families, they'll cause me trouble.
This Dugu Yu was a fearless warrior on the battlefield, and now when he gets involved in something, he's incredibly daring.
He almost ruined my father's overall plan. His conflict with warlords like Jiang Xiangyang is not the main issue now.
His main conflict now lies with the Jinling court in Jiangnan.
Dealing with these warlords should be done after the Nanjing court is dealt with.
If he really pushes Jiang Xiangyang to rebel, it could escalate the relationship between himself and these warlords.
This turned a secondary conflict between himself and them into a primary one.
This triggered their rebellion and ruined my overall plan.
I will absolutely skin Dugu Yu alive.
Li Qin looked at Xuanfu, where Dugu Yu was located, on the map.
This place is bordered by grasslands to the north, Datong (Shanxi's northern gateway) to the west, and the capital city to the east.
It is the eastern gateway to the capital, and this important military town must be guarded by a fierce general.
Li Qin glanced at the list of generals in his hand and realized that all the generals who could stand alone under his command had important matters to attend to.
Although he had many capable generals under his command, including some who could lead independently, he didn't have many truly trustworthy generals who could lead independently.
Take, for example, Cui Yuanbin, who surrendered with the Xuanfu army.
He was a great general, and his performance in previous wars was outstanding.
However, he had a very awkward problem: he was a surrendered general, not a general who came from Liaodong.
Moreover, he is a local of Xuanfu and has considerable influence there. If we were to send him to Xuanfu...
If he were to use his local influence to control the army, he would become another warlord like Jiang Xiangyang of Datong.
Although the possibility is slim, he absolutely cannot allow such a risk.
Especially since Xuanfu is so close to the capital.
He had to send a trustworthy general, even though Dugu Yu was a bit arrogant.
But at least for now, his loyalty is not an issue.
Loyalty is the most important thing.
Li Qin then wrote a letter to Dugu Yu in Xuanfu, instructing him to restrain his troops and stop provoking Jiang Xiangyang.
Li Qin wrote this letter in an extremely straightforward manner.
After writing this letter, Li Qin sent another member of the imperial clan to Xuanfu to assist Dugu Yu.
At the same time, report to yourself constantly.
After doing all this, Li Qin intensified his surveillance of Dugu Yu and sent a member of the imperial clan to Juyong Pass to control the road from the capital to Xuanfu.
After Li Qin finished dealing with everything, it was already past midnight.
Li Qin went to the backyard to rest.
But suddenly they saw several servants carrying several basins to the backyard.
Upon seeing Li Qin, he immediately knelt down and bowed, saying:
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
Li Qin approached and, through the bright moonlight, looked at the servants carrying basins of fish, and asked:
"What are you planning to do with all these fish so late at night?"
The servants knelt on the ground and respectfully said to Li Qin:
"Your Majesty, the eldest prince's fish died, and we are to replace them with new ones immediately."
"Ruwen? Dead again? Which batch is this?"
Li Qin was also taken aback when he heard this, because he had heard Zhuang Xiaoyu mention it before.
Li Ruwen likes to keep fish to calm his mind, but he is not very good at keeping fish, and the fish often die.
But this is way too fast.
Li Qin only thought about it for a moment and then stopped thinking about it; he had too many things to think about right now.
Jiangnan, the Northwest, Xuanfu, Datong, the grasslands, and the Huai River region are all places of interest.
He didn't have time to dwell on a few fish.
But then he noticed something and said to the servant in front of him:
"You can send it to him now without disturbing his rest."
Upon hearing this, the servants shook their heads repeatedly and said:
"Your Majesty, the Second Prince has already gone to rest, but the First Prince has not yet."
The Queen said that the eldest prince, being the legitimate son, was the most likely to inherit the King's legacy. Therefore, the Queen stipulated that he would rest whenever the King rested.
Moreover, because the princess valued the eldest prince highly, she assigned him far more tasks than the second prince.
In terms of discipline, he was much stricter than the second prince.
After listening to the servant's explanation, Li Qin frowned. Was the daily intensity the same as his own?
How much pressure must he be under?
The reason I have such a high workload every day is because I hold the highest power; I have to decide all the important matters in the world myself.
Everyone had to go along with him, and he thoroughly enjoyed this feeling of being in control.
