    Shi Ting was about to be humble, but Lu Lou had stopped him. He looked at him seriously: "I heard that there are rumors in Jeju that the Southern Tang Dynasty is recruiting our Dongping Army?"

    Lu Lou changed the topic on a flying horse like this, which really made Shi Ting unable to adapt.  He replied: "It is true. The Southern Tang Dynasty has appointed the lord as Minister of War and General of the Northern Campaign, but the lord has not made it clear whether he accepts it."

    "My lord's attitude is unclear? Then, what do you think about this matter?"

    Shi Ting was stunned for a moment. He didn't know the purpose of the commander's question, so he could only answer cautiously: "The last general is a warrior, and only the lord leads the horse! No matter the Southern Tang Dynasty or the Wei Dynasty, the last general will go wherever the lord says."  side!"

    Lu Lou stared at him deeply, until Shi Ting's heart was pounding, before Lu Lou smiled and said: "General Shi is right, we are warriors, we only need to know how to go into battle and kill. This kind of giant  We should leave the decision to the lord! Now, what we have to care about is completing the lord¡¯s mission, conquering Huaishuo, and killing Yutai. Other things are not ours to consider.¡±

    The two talked for a while, and then Shi Ting said goodbye and left. Lu Lou sent him to the door before returning to his room.  He sat in front of the case, his eyes focused, and he thought for a long time.

    After a while, the guard came in and whispered: "Captain Lu, Governor Xiao, Manager Lan, Inspector Ouyang, and several other adults are here and are waiting outside."

    "Okay, I'll go out right away - you go tell the king and ask the mistress to be there."

    Lu Lou straightened his clothes and strode out.  In the living room, Xiao Heng, Lan Zheng, Ouyang Hui and several others were already sitting in Linjinzheng. When they saw Lu Lou coming out, they all exchanged greetings and asked, "Captain Lu, have you summoned us here today?  Important matter?"

    Lu Lou returned with a group salute, but his expression was solemn: "General Xiao, Manager Lan, Inspector Ouyang, gentlemen, I am summoning you all urgently because I have received the lord's order."

    Everyone was surprised: "What Jun order?"

    Lu Lou shook his head and said, "When the mistress arrives, we will announce it together."

    Everyone said "Oh", knowing it in their hearts.  Meng Ju went south to fight, leaving Lulou behind to guard the base camp.  However, the Wuchuan Marshal was cautious in dealing with matters. When it came to major matters, he would never decide alone and would always summon the remaining elders to discuss together.

    At the moment, everyone is not talking about serious matters, they are just chatting away, talking about the good news coming back from Jeju.

    "The imperial court took the initiative to provoke, but the Jinwu guards failed to live up to their expectations and were beaten to a pulp by the governor. In the end, they had to send His Highness the Crown Prince to go to Jeju in person to ask for peace from the governor. Because of the old friendship with the prince, the governor agreed.  The imperial court's request for peace gave the remnants of the Jinwu Guard a way to survive, which shows that our Dongping army is strong and the best in the world"

    Ouyang Hui, Inspector of the Integrity Department of the Mausoleum Department, spoke with foaming foam at the mouth and high spirits. Both Xiao Heng and Lan Zheng frowned deeply, appearing to be preoccupied. They only occasionally said yes out of politeness.  They knew no less than Ouyang Hui. Not only did they know that the imperial court had negotiated a peace with the Dongping Army, they also knew that the reason why the imperial court was in a hurry to negotiate a peace was because the southern troops had crossed north of the Yangtze River.

    Xiao Heng turned sideways: "Brother Lan, look at it, can the court survive this time?"

    Lan Zheng sighed. In the past, Dongling Guard had an intelligence system all over the Wei Dynasty. It was famous for its accurate information and quick response.  But now, with the destruction of the Tomb Guard General Administration, the Dongling Guards in various places have fallen into a situation of fighting on their own. Lan Zheng has also lost his information channel. He shook his head and said: "Who can say for sure? However, I heard that  The Nan soldiers are coming with great force this time. The imperial court has just defeated Emperor Tuoba and has not yet breathed a sigh of relief. I'm afraid it will be quite difficult."

    "The divisions are exhausted and the country is exhausted. This is a taboo for military strategists. I heard that Governor Park has suffered several defeats."

    "Victory and defeat are common matters for military strategists. Now that the main forces of our country and the southern bandits have not moved, a few minor setbacks are nothing."

    Listening to the officers talking in low voices, Lu Lou said nothing, looking straight ahead with a calm expression.

    After waiting for a while, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and a young man dressed in a green shirt appeared at the door. It was Meng Ju's housekeeper Wang.  Seeing him, the generals stopped talking and all looked at the door.

    The king stood by the door and whispered: "My lords, Madam Ru has arrived."

    Lu Lou was the first to stand up, followed by Lan Zheng, Xiao Heng, Ouyang Hui and others.  In silence, accompanied by two maids, Ouyang Qingqing appeared at the door of the hall. She was wearing plain clothes, a high-top hat on her head, and her face was covered with gauze.  Seeing her, the military officers in the hall bowed and saluted: "See the mistress."

    Ouyang Qingqing is just Meng Ju¡¯s concubine. Although she was once a popular singer in Tianxiang Tower, sheShe is actually the only woman with status in Meng Ju.  No one dared to be disrespectful to her, otherwise it would not be disrespectful to Ouyang Qingqing, but disrespectful to Meng Ju.  Everyone here understands this truth.

    Ouyang Qingqing bowed her knees and returned the salute. She looked around at the crowd and said softly: "I heard the call from Governor Lu, and I came in a hurry, but my steps were slow. Thank you, my lords, you have been waiting for a long time."

    Lu Lou greeted him and said, "Madam, you are serious. We are really uneasy because of some trivial chores that have disturbed Madam's purity. We would like to ask Madam not to blame her. Madam, please take a seat!"

    Looking at the empty seat at the top of the hall, Ouyang Qingqing declined, but everyone insisted. After being polite, Ouyang Qingqing finally added a chair next to the seat and sat down.

    "Governor Lu, I summoned you here in a hurry today. What's the important thing? I'm a woman, and I don't know much about military affairs. You sirs are all your husband's trusted ministers. I have entrusted you with all the affairs.  Everyone just handles it as usual."

    "If it were ordinary government affairs, we would take care of it ourselves, and we wouldn't dare to bother Madam. But this time the Lord's order is extraordinary. When the order is announced, Madam must be present as a witness."

    Ouyang Qingqing was surprised and said: "Governor Lu, what order did your husband give?"

    Lu Lou picked up the man on the case and presented it with both hands: "Madam, please review it."

    Ouyang Qingqing took the package and took it apart to look at it.  The hall was silent, and everyone was watching her nervously, but Ouyang Qingqing's face was covered by a veil, and her expression could not be seen, but everyone could feel that she looked a little surprised when she looked at the father-in-law.

    "Haha" Ouyang Qingqing quickly finished reading the article. Hearing her chuckle, everyone was relieved: Mrs. Ouyang can still laugh, the matter shouldn't be serious, right?

    Ouyang Qingqing raised her head, and her voice was filled with a smile: "Masters, don't worry, this is a good thing - Governor Lu, my body has been checked. It is indeed my husband's handwriting and his seal. This  The order is correct and you can announce it."

    Lu Lou nodded, he stood up, held his father-in-law in his hand, and said seriously: "Then, let me announce the lord's order - Lan Zheng, the director of the Dongling Guard of the Jing'an Department, obeys the order!"

    Lan Zheng stood up from his seat and solemnly said: "The general is here!"

    "By the order of the lord, I have ordered you to take over the post of Dongpinglingling Guard Inspector."

    Lan Zheng swayed a little, and he lost his voice: "Dongping Town Inspector? Dongping - Town Inspector?"

    "Exactly! The Lord has resigned from the post of Governor of Dongping due to his busy schedule and is unable to take care of both. After careful consideration, the Lord has granted this position to you.

    Governor Lan, the Dongping Mausoleum Office is the backbone of our army and is of extraordinary significance. The Lord now entrusts you with this duty and the thousands of brothers in the Dongping Mausoleum Office. I hope you can inherit the position of Dongping Guards.  The glorious tradition prevents the reputation of Dongping Mausoleum from being degraded, and prevents the reputation of the two first governors Ye Zhendu and Lord Lord from being humiliated.  "

    Listening to Lu Lou¡¯s order, Lan Zheng¡¯s face turned red.  Governor, this is the pinnacle level of Dongling Guard military attach¨¦s, and this is the holy post that every Dongling Guard officer dreams of.  The position of Governor of Dongping was the base for Meng Ju's fortune. Within the Dongping Army, this position was of extraordinary significance. Lan Zheng never imagined that he would still be able to sit in this position in his later years when he was about to retire.  Fulfill your lifelong wish.

    "The Dongping Mausoleum Office is the post that the lord once held. The lord does not abandon the old general, but he has given him a heavy responsibility. The general is so frightened that he dares not to serve to the death? Please tell the mistress and Governor Lu to tell the lord: The general guarantees it, but there is still a breath, and he is determined not to do it.  It will bring shame to the lord."

    Lu Lou nodded, but Ouyang Qingqing said gently: "Your Majesty, I have spoken harshly. I once heard my husband say that Mr. Lan is upright and has an upright character. He is a rare minister who can give direct advice. My husband has always been kind to you."  I respect you very much. Now that your husband has entrusted you with an important task, it must be because your talent and virtue are worthy of the task. You can just perform your duties with a normal heart. Otherwise, if you are exhausted from doing this, it means that your husband has not thought carefully.  It¡¯s a sin.¡±

    Everyone in the hall nodded slightly. Although Mrs. Ru from Meng Ju was born in a brothel, her knowledge was not low. These comforting words were very appropriate, which showed that she was not an ordinary woman.

    Lan Zheng felt even more secretly guilty - when Meng Ju wanted to marry Ouyang Qingqing before going south, he had privately dissuaded him from marrying him, saying that Ouyang Qingqing was from a brothel and her identity was too far removed from Meng Ju's, making it difficult for him to be a good match.  But looking at Ouyang Qingqing's performance today, both her conversation and appearance were impeccable, showing everyone's magnanimity, but it seemed that she was not a villain that day.

    Lan Zheng bowed to Ouyang Qingqing and stepped back. Lu Lou picked up the letter again and said loudly: "General Xiao Heng, the general of Dongping!"

    When Lan Zheng was appointed, Xiao HengHe had a vague premonition, and he took a step forward firmly: "The end is here!"

    "The Lord has appointed you to take over the post of Governor of Dongping, and be responsible for all military and political affairs in Dongping Town - Congratulations, Lord Governor!"

    Ouyang Qingqing stood up and bowed to Xiao Hengying: "Congratulations to General Xiao. My husband once said that General Xiao is the pillar of the Dongping military community. With you guarding Dongping, my husband can have peace of mind when he is away on an expedition.  .¡±

    Because of the precedent of Lan Zheng, Xiao Heng was mentally prepared. He behaved much calmer and returned the greeting: "The fact that I am able to serve as the governor of a town in my twilight years is all due to the trust of my lord. My lord's kindness,  Higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea, I would like to express my gratitude to my lord for your great kindness. How dare you not repay me with dignity? Please rest assured, lord and madam, that I will be with you, and the East will be as stable as Mount Tai!"
