The Marquis of Zhenbei, like the Jingan Marquis Mansion at the time of Siyou Country's founding, had made significant military contributions.
Today, the Marquis of Zhenbei, possessing the same domineering presence as his grandfather, always focused on issues rather than people.
Though it was true that Xue Ba did collaborate with the Salt Merchants, that money was being used to support Siyou Country's large army in the Northwest region.
For this reason, Emperor Fu Aotian had been tolerating the Marquis of Zhenbei without taking action against him.
Now that the national treasury was depleted, internal strife at such a time would be fundamentally damaging.
Though Emperor Fu Aotian was not a sage ruler, he was at least several times better than a doltish one.
