    Chapter 269: Going Home (Part 2)

    Meng Ju spoke in an understatement and his tone was not very harsh, but Sun Xiang blushed and lowered his head deeply, not daring to look at anyone.  Although rituals and music have collapsed these days, the warriors can change their lords at will and no one will say anything - what should they demand from these ignorant Qiu Ba people?  ¡ª¡ªBut it¡¯s a bit embarrassing for civil servants to change their jobs so casually. After all, they are scholars, and etiquette and integrity still need to be talked about. You can¡¯t read the words loyalty and filial piety into a dog¡¯s belly, right?

    Seeing that the atmosphere was awkward, Lu Liulou hurriedly came out to smooth things over: "Governor, Governor Sun is very knowledgeable. He took the initiative to surrender to our army and informed our army of the news that Governor Sun led his army back to the north. Without Governor Sun, we would still have  I don¡¯t know that the Governor has come back, so I can¡¯t come out to greet him. For this little merit, the Governor is magnanimous, so don¡¯t worry about the past, right?¡±

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: 21:39.  We can¡¯t mistreat this fine example of a rich man!

    In fact, Meng Ju didn't have any bad feelings towards Sun Xiang - although loyal ministers have nothing to do with the two masters, smart people can live longer these days.  Sun Xiang decided to defect to Tuoba Xiong back then, and now he has switched to himself. Both decisions can be said to be extremely correct.  Especially now, because I knew the inside story, I knew that Tuoba Xiong's determination was bound to fail, but a civil servant like Sun Xiang who was far away from the front line could also predict this. This person's political sense is really astonishingly sensitive.  .

    The only pity is that this smart man got the situation wrong - he thought that since he was the governor of Northern Xinjiang conferred by the Murong family, he was naturally a member of the Murong family. He surrendered to him in such a hurry, but he did not expect that he and Murong  The family is already in a semi-divided state.  Of course, Meng Ju would not tell him about this mistake.

    "Governor Sun understands the righteousness and abandons darkness to the light. I am deeply gratified. Lord Sun, rest assured that I have always acted on merit, regardless of my family background. As long as the governor is sincerely loyal to me, I will repay him with preferential treatment.  But I hope that you, my master, and my ministers will be in harmony, start well and end well, and it will be a good story."

    After Meng Ju said these words, Lu Liulou and other warriors didn't feel much at all, but Sun Xiang, a civil servant, knew how powerful it was: these small words were of great significance, even the most awe-inspiring warning was nothing more - to be able to say these words  , this Governor Meng is no ordinary martial artist.  It is said that his martial arts skills are unparalleled, but his martial arts skills and strategy are probably not inferior to his martial arts skills.

    Meng Ju stared deeply at Sun Xiang, his gaze as sharp as a sharp arrow, piercing people's hearts, and the aura of a warrior honed on the battlefield came unabashedly towards his face.

    Sun Xiang couldn't bear it anymore and knelt down: "My lord, I'm here to tell you the truth. The guilty minister sincerely serves my lord and has no second intention. If you violate this word, heaven and earth will destroy you, and humans and gods will be abandoned!"

    He was lying on the ground, not daring to look up. After a long time, he heard a voice coming from above his head: "Governor Sun, get up." Then, footsteps sounded and gradually faded away.  When Sun Xiang raised his head, he saw that the ground in front of him was empty.  Surrounded by a group of officers, the Commander-in-Chief of Meng was already far away.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    "Sixth floor, you seem to have something to say? You and I, brothers, just say what you have to say, why bother holding it in your heart?"

    Meng Ju could read his own thoughts, so Lu Liulou was not surprised.  He said: "Governor, there is something unclear at the end of the day, and I would like to ask the governor for advice."

    "Is it about Sun Xiang?"

    "Yes." Lu Liulou made no secret of it, and said, "Governor, I have noticed that you are also people from the border army. You are very tolerant and generous to Li Shuai and Yi Shuai. And.  Governor Sun took the initiative to surrender to us, but you treated him as if he was very harsh and not very conciliatory. I don't understand, is there any hidden meaning in the different treatment by the governor?"

    Meng Ju smiled, he was very happy that Lu Liulou could speak so directly.  Now that his power is growing and his status is rising, Lu Liulou is the only one who can answer him openly and without any scheming.

    "Sixth floor, you are right. Sun Xiang and Li Chimei were both surrendered by the border army, but they are two completely different people - Li Chimei, Yi Xiaodao and the others were all forced to do so by me.  They were at the end of their rope and had no choice but to surrender. They could be said to have had no choice. I will win over such people with kindness and sincerity, and it will not be difficult for them to return to our hearts in the future.

    But Sun Xiang is different, we didn¡¯t force him. Seeing that his old club was not doing well, he took the initiative to abandon his master and rebel, adding insult to injury - he was not forced, it was purely for his own selfish interests.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????rrhantilly out out of love, don't talk about kindness, only talk about interests - this kind of person is very dangerous.  Tuoba Xiong gave Sun Xiang, governor of Shuozhou and bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion,No matter how good the treatment we give him is the generous treatment given to him by the Minister of Rites, can it be better than this?  But even so, when Tuoba Xiong faced difficulties, Sun Xiang immediately rebelled.  Therefore, you should understand that it is useless to talk about friendship with such a person.

    He is a person who only talks about interests, so we can only talk about interests to him - anything else is just nonsense.  "

    Lu Liulou listened thoughtfully: "The general seems to understand a little bit But the governor, Tuoba Xiong gave him such a big benefit, but he couldn't keep Sun Xiang, so what can we give him?  Where are the benefits?¡±

    "Haha, you are so confused on the sixth floor. You have even forgotten what you are good at. We are warriors! What are we best at? What benefits are there in the world that can be compared to the eating thing around your own neck?  ?

    "Sixth floor, from now on you will also serve as a general and guard, not just a warrior."  You still need to pay attention to this knowledge of dealing with people.  We want to treat others sincerely, but not everyone can repay us with sincerity!  "

    Lu Liulou was thoughtful and nodded slowly: "What the governor said is profound and unique, and I will benefit a lot in the end."

    The two of them talked about the situation after parting, and the soldiers and horses moved forward one after another.  One day later, the soldiers and horses arrived at Shuozhou Fucheng.

    Shuozhou is the general logistics hub of the six towns in northern Xinjiang. It was the second line of defense for the Central Plains dynasty against grassland invasion. It has always been the majestic city of northern Xinjiang, with a radius of more than 20 miles and 100,000 registered households.  During the last northern frontier army's southward march, Shuozhou Fucheng voluntarily surrendered to Tuoba Xiong, so the city was handed over without war, and people's livelihood was preserved intact.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Through out the journey back north, I got used to seeing those desolate wilderness, mountains, rivers and wilderness.  Now, I saw the dense population and the prosperous town again, with the bustling voices and bustling crowds, the shops lined up, and the wine flags flying.  And this prosperous city will soon become the territory under his jurisdiction. Meng Ju was in a good mood and smiled.

    "In such a war-torn era, Shuozhou was able to maintain local prosperity, with hundreds of people living and working in peace and contentment, and the people's livelihood being prosperous and peaceful. It can be seen that Governor Sun managed the people well, which is really rare."

    "The Governor-General has given me the award, but I am really ashamed to be a lower-ranking official."

    Seeing Meng Ju's happy expression, Sun Xiang bravely said: "Grand Governor, I have already set up a reception banquet at Wanxiang Tower in the city. Hundreds of thousands of representatives of the elders in Shuozhou are looking forward to seeing the Grand Governor's face.  , I am so bold that I dare to invite the Governor to attend a banquet in order to show the respect of all the elders of Shuozhou."

    To be honest, Meng Ju is the most annoyed by things like the Jie Feng Banquet.  This kind of banquet, the food may not be very delicious, but you have to meet a lot of unnecessary people and talk nonsense for several hours - with this time and time, I might as well go to review a few official documents, or find a little Liu Kongqin  Chat with beauties.

    But there is no other way. In this position, many things cannot be left to Meng Ju himself.  Listen, how nice is what Governor Sun said?  Hundreds of thousands of elders are looking forward to it!  If Meng Ju refuses to go to the Fengfeng Banquet, he will break the hearts of hundreds of thousands of Shuozhou elders. How can that be allowed?

    Before Meng Ju could speak, the generals had already spoken: "Governor, Governor Sun is sincere. The elders of Shuozhou are so diligent, we must not let them down!"

    "Exactly, Old Sun, how can there be a banquet without singing and dancing? The Governor has returned from a thousand miles away, and it has been a very hard journey. You have to make arrangements and give some condolences to the Governor You know this, Old Sun.  !¡±

    Looking at the generals, Meng Ju smiled wryly: Han Buhan can affect the hearts of hundreds of thousands of Shuozhou elders. That is a trivial matter, but whether the generals behind him agree or not is the key.  This group of warriors had been languishing in the wilderness for several months, and now they suddenly returned to the bustling crowds. They heard that there was good wine and beauty. How could they agree if they refused to go?

    Seeing that his subordinates were so eager, Meng Ju could not go against the public opinion: "In this case, we will disturb Governor Sun."

    That night, all the generals gathered at Wanxiang Tower in Shuozhou and had a great time together.  The remaining generals and Meng Ju had not seen each other for more than half a year. Everyone took turns coming up to toast Meng Ju, and new generals such as Li Chimei, Yi Xiaodao, etc. also came to join in the fun. Unable to withstand the enthusiasm of everyone, Meng Ju had no choice but to accept everyone who came.  Meng Ju drank so much that even though he had a good capacity for drinking, he couldn't bear it. Before the banquet was over, he was drunk until he was unconscious and was carried back to his room.

    When Meng Ju woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day.  Meng Ju tried his best to open his eyes a little, and he saw the gauze covering the bed above his head, the elegant red wall cabinet, and the snow-white walls.  The windows of the room were closed, and a red candle was burning on the silver candlestick. Only a small part of it was burned, and a rich sweet fragrance floated in the room.

    Meng Ju¡¯s mind was in chaos: ¡°Where are I?¡±

    He struggled to get up, feeling sore in the muscles all over his body.  Only then did he realize that there was another person on the bed next to him.  She curled up in the quilt and couldn't seeHer face was clear, and all she could see was her jet-black hair and exposed jade shoulders.

    After staring at the snow-white and small shoulders for five seconds, Meng Ju finally realized the fact: last night, he slept with this woman.
