My game can make money starting from the Three Kingdoms period.

Lu Qian wasn't afraid of being punished by Zhuge Liang, but rather of his third sister's outburst.

Ma Su, Ma Su, I'm protecting you!

But Ma Su retorted sarcastically, "This method can still be remedied. You say I can't handle it? Hmph, I will severely punish your old wife for undermining my army's prestige!"

That's it, prepare to face Guan Yu's wrath...

Ma Su's argument was based on sound reasoning and evidence.

Guan Feng seemed unwilling to reason with him.

"I was assigned to oversee the supply of provisions with the army, but I couldn't help myself and resorted to violence. Who knew that barbarian king would be so resistant to war? What is the meaning of your aggressive approach? Are you saying that women are not allowed to contribute to the country?"

Ma Su was taken aback. "Supervise the grain supplies? I'd like to see who gave you that appointment!"

As for the Daoist theory in the second half of the sentence, Ma Su knew it was a trap and he couldn't fall into it.

Guan Feng glanced disdainfully at Ma Su, "He must be the former General and Marquis of Hanshou."

"Former General? Marquis of Hanshou?" Ma Su's gaze suddenly hardened. "Could it be that you are...?"

Good heavens, have I kicked a hornet's nest?

This was originally an honorific title for Guan Yu, but now it is held by his son Guan Ping.

Within the Shu Han territory, some locations are clearly marked.

For example, the positions of General of the Vanguard and General of the Right were held by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei during their lifetimes. After Guan Yu's death and Zhang Fei's promotion to General of Chariots and Cavalry, these positions remained vacant for a long time.

Guan Ping has now accumulated enough seniority to assume the military rank granted to him by his father before his death. He is now the General of the Vanguard of the Han Dynasty and the Marquis of Hanshou.

Guan Ping appointed his sister to oversee the grain supply, and Ma Su had no right to question it.

Ma Su was not afraid of the other party's high rank, but rather of Guan Yu's position within the Shu Han group!

and many more!

Ma Su's heart tightened. Lu Qian had arranged a marriage with the Guan family?!

In Ma Su's eyes, Lu Qian saw awe.

It wasn't out of awe for Lu Qian's talent, but rather out of fear of Lu Qian's powerful background.

He inherited the title of Marquis of Duting, was the son-in-law of the Guan family, received instruction from Prime Minister Zhuge Liang, and was awarded the official hat by Grand Commandant Pang Tong.

Jealousy? This goes beyond the realm of jealousy!

Because people only envy others of the same social class, not those they need to look up to!

Just as ants don't envy elephants, common people don't envy emperors.

Ma Su knew that he and Lu Qian were no longer on the same level.

"Misunderstanding! It was my misunderstanding! General Guan's bravery has been continued by his wife, which is a blessing for our Han Dynasty! The barbarian king is unruly, and Young Master Lu has suggested a plan to capture him, which is the best strategy. I hope the Prime Minister will adopt it."

Ma Su's attitude changed drastically, becoming pitifully humble.

What's there to be jealous of? There's no need to be jealous anymore.

Unless Ma Su works hard to give his son such a starting point, he will never be able to be ranked alongside Lu Qian in his lifetime.

One can see a brand new family rising up through the efforts of three generations.

Since we can't reach that level, we should at least try to get closer to each other, otherwise we won't even know how we died.

Because if Lu Qian or Guan Feng say something bad about Ma Su, even unintentionally, someone will inevitably take it to heart and make a big deal out of it!

This is roughly the idea behind why you shouldn't offend the emperor's favorites.

Zhuge Liang quietly observed Ma Su's attitude change from questioning to shock, from shock to fear, and from fear to humility.

Zhuge Liang knew that his staff could not be united.

He could only try his best to maintain a relative balance.

In Zhuge Liang's view, Ma Su's admission of defeat was another way to maintain unity.

It's always better to submit to the superior than for both sides to fight.

"Good, Youchang, you will be in charge of devising the subsequent capture plan." Ma Su was in a bad mood, so Zhuge Liang gave him a piece of candy.

Upon hearing this, Ma Su felt much better and replied, "Yes."

Zhuge Liang then looked at Guan Feng and said, "Don't be naughty anymore. You need to behave like a wife."

Zhuge Liang attributed Guan Feng's actions to being mischievous, so no one would hold a grudge and keep harping on the matter.

The final admonition also served as a warning to Guan Feng, reminding him that he could no longer act on his whims.

This is war! People are dying!

Guan Feng lowered her head and agreed, "I'll never dare to do it again."

Although Shu Han lacked talent, it was not so lacking that women were needed to fight on the battlefield.

Guan Feng's identity as Guan Yu's daughter could be used to boost morale. Guan Feng captured Meng Huo without incident, which was good.

Otherwise, Zhuge Liang would not be able to explain himself to the Guan family.

Several days later

Meng Huo regrouped his troops and prepared for battle again.

Guan Feng, who had already donned her armor, begged Lu Qian to take her to the battlefield.

"But have you forgotten what the Prime Minister said? You must act like a wife!"

These were the words of Zhuge Liang, and Lu Qian repeated them with absolute confidence.

Guan Feng laid down her armor with a heavy heart, saying, "My father and brothers have been fighting on the frontier for many years, and my mother passed away, leaving me separated from them. No one taught me what it means to be a wife, so how could I know what it means to be a wife?"

These words left Lu Qian speechless.

Guan Feng had a martial spirit since childhood, and his younger sister Lu Ansheng was also a restless person, so Guan Yu asked her to accompany Guan Feng.

This is how Lu Qian got to know Guan Feng.

Lu Qian knew Guan Feng's personality very well.

Lu Qian thought for a long time about how to make Guan Feng have a clear understanding of married women.

To avoid Guan Feng not understanding, Lu Qian used examples from people around her that Guan Feng could understand: "If Third Sister really wants to change, she can learn from Yu Sheng. That's what a virtuous, gentle, and quiet wife should be like..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Qian involuntarily shivered.

There's a murderous aura about him!

"Yusheng, right?"

……

Spring 224

After being captured and released seven times, Meng Huo was completely subdued and vowed never to rebel again.

On the other hand, Li Hui, the governor of Yijiang, used harsh laws and severe punishments to demonstrate the power of the state, and conquered the uncivilized Qingqiang barbarians by force and physical means.

Li Hui then followed Zhuge Liang's arrangement and moved the capital to Wei County in the heart of Nanzhong, so as to better manage the Nanzhong region.

The name of the Governor of Yijiang was renowned throughout the entire southern region.

Dissatisfied? Still want to rebel? Li Hui's butcher's knife shows no mercy.

For them, stability and obedience to the ruler meant that the prime minister's feather fan could give them hope for survival and promotion.

Through a combination of carrot and stick tactics, the rebellion in southern China was completely quelled.

Because the Grand Commandant had almost caused the loss of the southern region, Li Hui did not hesitate to wield the butcher's knife.

Then, the leaders of the Jin, Yin, Ma, Niu, and Yi tribes in the south were all moved to Chengdu to provide them with military supplies.

Zhuge Liang then used the soldiers and military resources of the Qiang and other tribes to form a new army called the Wudang Flying Army.

Then, rewards were distributed according to merit. Among them, Ma Su was recommended as the governor of Yuexi for his meritorious service in pacifying the southern barbarians.

Lu Qian was commended for his meritorious service as a consultant, and Zhuge Liang wanted to recommend him as an outstanding talent. He was appointed as a staff member of the Prime Minister's Office, with duties similar to those of a military advisor.

Its main responsibility is to provide decision-making advice.

Lu Qian used the excuse of observing mourning for his parents to decline the offer.

Zhuge Liang fulfilled Lu Qian's filial duty.

Today, Lu Qian was invited to the Guan family mansion.

Ever since Lu Qian inadvertently touched a nerve with Guan Feng that day, Guan Feng has been somewhat indifferent to Lu Qian.

After returning to Chengdu, Guan Feng stopped coming to find Lu Ansheng to practice martial arts.

Lu Qian then thought he would take advantage of the opportunity of his future brother-in-law's invitation to the banquet to visit and apologize.

They prepared some silk fabric, Shu brocade, and dried fruit as gifts.

With both of his elder brothers home today, the banquet was a way for him to test his brother-in-law, Lu Qian.

Guan Feng then stood outside the mansion gate as if possessed, pretending to be busy and bumping into him, so as to give Lu Qian a heads-up.
