Adhering to Huang Taiji's will, Daishan came up with a desperate plan. Although it benefited Jianlu, it also caused Huang Taiji to lose the love of his life.This was something neither Daishan nor Huang Taiji expected.

As for how this happened, I will not show it for the time being.

Speaking of this day alone, at the port of Dengzhou Prefecture in Shandong, some warships sailed from the distant sea from time to time. As soon as they approached the shore, some generals and personal guards rushed to the Governor's Mansion of Denglai in the city.

Sometimes it happened that the two bow ships arrived one after another, and the generals who went ashore knew each other, but they didn't say goodbye to each other with a smile. They just greeted each other and entered the city.

The people in the city saw that the generals were entering, so they automatically avoided the main road, shrank to one side, and discussed quietly.

"Let me tell you, this is probably the third time the new governor took office, and maybe he has to fight Jianlu again." Passerby A speculated with a serious face.

"No, no." Passerby B who was standing with him shook his head in denial.

"Why not, every time I express an opinion, you always object, it's a feud!" Passerby A said with an unhappy expression when he heard that Passerby B denied his opinion.

"Ah, man, you misunderstood me this time. Look at these generals, look at their faces." Passerby B used his body as a cover, pointing at the sergeants who just passed by.

Passer-by C who stood beside them and joined in the fun asked with a puzzled look on his face: "What's the matter, is there a flower on your face?"

"Go, you have flowers on your face! You see, none of them have smiles on their faces, and some of them are still frowning. Therefore, according to my guess, the first thing they know about the new governor is to show off his prestige. I am afraid that I will be unlucky, so I have this expression." Passerby B said triumphantly.

He felt that he knew the truth from the outside and the inside, and his guess was very reasonable.

Hearing what passer-by B said, the two people around him seemed to make sense, and they couldn't help nodding, which made passer-by B feel a sense of satisfaction in being approved.

But Passerby B's sense of satisfaction didn't last for a while, when they happened to pass by a traveling businessman, heard them talking, couldn't help leaning over and said: "Governor Lu still needs to use them to make a name for himself? You are so ignorant." After speaking , just passed by them, ready to continue on their way.

As soon as passer-by B heard this, he quit and grabbed the traveler by the sleeve to prevent him from leaving: "Who are you calling ignorant? If you don't make it clear, this is my territory. You can figure it out."

Hearing this, the traveler secretly thought that he was talking too much, so he turned around and explained with a smile on his face: "Don't you know that the new governor is the big man who captured the slave chief Aixinjueluo-Amin during the Battle of Gyeonggi, you Does it mean that he still needs to show his prestige on these generals?"

This statement surprised everyone who heard it. They didn't expect the new governor to be so powerful.

"I saw on the road that when Lu Zhongcheng came to Dengzhou, he brought thousands of cavalry with him. This was something that had never happened before. With such confidence, are you still afraid that the generals will not accept it?" Another big news broke out, which shocked these people again.

Passerby A felt a little bit suddenly realized, and also expressed his opinion: "So that's the case. That evening, I heard the sound of horseshoes. It turned out that it was Lu Zhongcheng who came."

Passer-by B didn't guess right, but he was not annoyed, and sighed over there: "Lu Zhongcheng is really different from others. When other officials take office, they are afraid that others will not know. The gongs and drums are played, and the country gentry welcomes you. Ah, Lu Zhongcheng It's so low-key."

The low-key Lu Xiangsheng didn't know that his actions had added an after-dinner conversation to the people of Dengzhou Prefecture. He was waiting for the appointed time in the back office of the governor's mansion. chatting.

"Liheng, why don't you stay at home for a few more days this time, so you can prepare more dowry for your sister, so that Lord Hou won't think your family is stingy." Lu Xiangsheng looked at Yan Yingyuan and said with a smile.

"Hehe, Jiutai was joking, Master Hou is not that kind of person. To be honest, the money in my family was given by Master Hou in private!" Yan Yingyuan smiled before answering Lu Xiangsheng.

What he felt the most when he went back this time was that the Yan family's status in Tongzhou had reached an unprecedented height.Not to mention the neighbors, but the squires, officials and generals in Tongzhou City, when they heard that he was going home to visit his relatives, they all came to visit him, and the queues waiting to be interviewed all went out of the alley of his house.

Yan Yingyuan came to report earlier than Lu Xiangsheng imagined, not only because of his own professional ethics, but also because he really didn't want to deal with those people and wasted his time on socializing.

But also because he returned home once, he was relieved and had no worries.

It's just that he doesn't understand his sister, who is about to get married, and shut himself up in the house to do some carving work, which is just not doing his job properly.

He said a few words to her, touched the thing she carved, and was kicked out of the door by her.This is still not a marquis, if she gets married, she probably won't even be able to talk about it.

While Yan Yingyuan blamed his sister in his heart, he couldn't help but show the happiness of the whole family on his face.

The Yan family has changed a lot in the past six months, and life is getting better and better.

"Liheng, Liheng..."

"Ah, ha, I made Jiutai laugh, come, come, Jiutai has tea." Yan Yingyuan was called out several times by Lu Xiangsheng before he woke up from his memories, a little embarrassed, and quickly used tea to cover it up.

"Hahaha, Liheng, Liheng, you who are about to become the marquis's brother-in-law, are so happy." Lu Xiangsheng smiled like this, he was big and had a lot of lung capacity, and the whole room was filled with his laughter.

After Yan Yingyuan heard it, he took a closer look and found that the tea in his hand had been emptied by himself before.He thought it was funny, so he put the teacup back on the table, and laughed along with Lu Xiangsheng.

After Lu Xiangsheng laughed enough, he said to Yan Yingyuan: "Liheng, I went to Dengzhou Water Camp to have a look. It was really surprising. The Dengzhou Water Camp, which was famous in the Ming Dynasty, now only has dozens of broken boats and small boats. I decided to assign the Dengzhou Water Battalion to you to take command together, how about it?"

Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng was talking about business, Yan Yingyuan put back his thoughts and replied seriously: "Jiutai, this doesn't seem to be in line with the usual practice. The Dengzhou Water Camp should be under the direct control of the Denglai Governor, and inspect the entire Denglai area. I'm just leading the Dongjiang Chinese Association."

"Hehe, Li Heng, has there ever been a single-leading water battalion before? It's never happened. You should know that these are all the ideas of Zhongxinghou, and they have been approved by the emperor. I'm afraid that in the future, you, the leader of the water battalion Not necessarily bigger than my governor of Denglai." Lu Xiangsheng smiled, and then said seriously to Yan Yingyuan.

In fact, Yan Yingyuan also knew some things during the usual chats with Zhong Jinwei, and understood that what Lu Xiangsheng said was not groundless.Although most people in the court didn't know about it, those who were close to Zhong Jinwei and trusted by the emperor almost knew a little bit.

Now that Lu Xiangsheng said the same thing, Yan Yingyuan stopped insisting, cupped his fists at Lu Xiangsheng and said, "So, the last general will take orders."

Lu Xiangsheng waved his hands with a smile, and then said to Yan Yingyuan: "Don't be too happy, Liheng, the entire Denglai water camp is still under reconstruction right now. Everything else is fine, but there is a shortage of materials and silver needed for shipbuilding. I think You'd better write to your brother-in-law and ask him to get you some."

"Oh, Jiutai, it turns out that's what you came up with!" Yan Yingyuan suddenly realized when he heard this, pointed at Lu Xiangsheng and said with a smile.

Lu Xiangsheng saw through Yan Yingyuan's purpose, and he didn't take it seriously. Just as he was about to say more, Lu Da came in from the outside and said: "Master, the time has come, and the generals of all islands have gathered."

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he stood up and said to Yan Yingyuan, "Let's go to the front office."
