The reconciliation of the main hall has been regarded as a top secret, and no one is allowed to inquire about it except those involved.

Firstly, this matter is related to the royal family's reputation, and secondly, it is related to Emperor Liang's strategic layout for the Lin family in the south of the Yangtze River and the wealthy families in the south.

However, the fact that Qin Feng was canonized as 'Tianluhou' still took advantage of the east wind and spread throughout Kyoto in just two days.

By the Mingyue Lake, orange fallen leaves are falling on the lake.

Autumn is deep.

At the strong request of Liu Hongyan and Xie Yuner, Qin Feng had to change into autumn clothes.

Besides Zhao Yulong, there was also a young man with an unfamiliar face.

This man was wearing a black bat-patterned cotton-padded jacket. He was not very old, that is, in his early twenties, but he looked powerful and had a strong air of strength in his movements.

"Marquis Qin, my father asked me to come here to inquire. Today, the troops and horses of Tianji camp outside the city are moving frequently. What is the reason?"

Qin Feng looked at the lake, and his mind was filled with images of his mother and his eldest and fourth sister.

Since returning to Beijing, I have not had any contact with her through a few letters occasionally, and I don't know how my mother and sisters are doing recently.

After a moment, Qin Feng slowly spoke: "Master Ma, in this capital, you have to be cautious in your words and deeds. If you don't have an iron fist equal to a thousand, you have to be careful in your words and deeds when talking to anyone. If you are too harsh, Being misunderstood will only cause unnecessary trouble."

Ma Yu was stunned for a moment. As the son of Ma Mo, the commander-in-chief of Dongying, he held a very important position among the powerful children of Kyoto. However, facing Qin Feng at this time, he could not hold his head high.

After all, at Qin Feng's age, he was canonized as Tianlu Hou. I don't know if anyone will come, but it must be unprecedented.

Ma Yu spoke quickly, not knowing which of his words was wrong, so he quickly clasped his fists and saluted.

"Marquis Qin, I don't mean any disrespect. If I said something wrong, please make it clear to Marquis Qin."

Qin Feng nodded, and in order to make Ma Yu relax, he deliberately squeezed out a smile: "Master Ma, I know you are a true-hearted person, so I warned you."

"Abnormal movement, don't use this word indiscriminately. In the city of Kyoto, at the feet of the emperor, the most powerful people in the entire Liang Dynasty gather. Accordingly, everyone's nerves are extremely sensitive."

"Especially now, the Gyeonggi garrison has divided the world into two parts."

"The Eastern and Western Camps under the imperial party are always keeping an eye on the Longhu Army and the Tianji Camp. If a misunderstanding occurs due to one word, and then weapons are launched, it will be a big joke."

Only then did Ma Yu wake up from a dream. The situation in Kyoto was no longer what it used to be. The Longhu Army, Tianji Camp, and Dongxi Camp seemed to coexist peacefully, but in fact they checked and balanced each other and were on guard against each other.

When dealing with each other, one must be cautious and cautious.

Ma Yu quickly changed his words: "I wonder why the Tianji Battalion mobilized troops recently?"

Qin Feng smiled, and Yun Danfeng said lightly: "I'm going to Beidi soon, right? I'm going to send some troops to accompany me. There aren't many of them, just over a thousand people."

"If your father is worried about anything, just wait for me to send someone to Dongying to report it."

Upon hearing this, Ma Yu quickly apologized and said, "The Marquis of Qin made serious remarks. My father asked me to come to the Marquis of Qin privately to ask for clarification, instead of going through the Ministry of War and not reporting the matter to His Majesty, just for fear of hurting the harmony."

"The Marquis of Qin's loyalty to His Majesty is known to all the world. The mobilization of troops and horses is naturally for official matters. I came to ask clearly, and it is just a formality."

"If nothing happens, I will go back first. Please take care of me, Marquis Qin."

Just when Ma Yu was about to turn around and leave, he was blocked by Zhao Yulong.

Ma Yu was stunned and realized that it was easy to see Qin Feng but difficult to leave. He had no choice but to turn to Qin Feng and asked softly: "Qin Hou, do you have anything else?"

Qin Feng did not answer in a hurry, and just looked at the fallen leaves floating on the lake with the ripples.

The seemingly calm look in his eyes made Ma Yu feel nervous.

Qin Feng didn't speak, and Ma Yu didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he just waited by the side.

After a long time, Qin Feng finally spoke slowly: "Master Ma, how close are you to Brother Yulong?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Yu couldn't help but murmur in his heart, wondering what Qin Feng meant.

However, for safety reasons, Ma Yu chose to answer honestly.

"If you insist on saying it, it can only be neither far nor close."

"Both of us are sons of the Gyeonggi garrison. Uncle Zhao is the commander-in-chief of the Dragon and Tiger Army, and my father is the commander-in-chief of Dongying. In terms of official positions, they are roughly the same."

"However, if we talk about the achievements of this younger generation, I and Brother Yulong can never be compared."

"Haha, after all, Brother Yulong is on the front line, leading the black cavalry, killing all directions, but I have never been on the battlefield yet."

Ma Yu deliberately kept his posture very low, for fear of offending Qin Feng by accident.

Under Ma Yu's cautious gaze, Qin Feng's lips moved slightly and his voice was very soft, but not angry or intimidating.

"Mr. Ma, don't talk about him. Answer my questions head on."

Ma Yu swallowed his saliva and said bluntly: "It's just acquaintance. Other than that, there is no relationship."

After receiving this crisp answer, Qin Feng nodded with satisfaction, and then asked: "In other words, after I leave Kyoto, you will not rely on personal friendship to instigate Brother Yulong to drain the pot."

As soon as these words came out, Ma Yu's back instantly felt cold.

Where were these words said to Mayu? He was obviously talking to his father, Ma Mo!

Ma Yu hurriedly bent down to salute, and his posture became lower: "The Marquis of Qin is broken. Who doesn't know that Zhao Yulong is your confidant, and he is your brother and sister. I always have great abilities, and also It is impossible to instigate rebellion against Zhao Yulong."

"Besides, now that Your Majesty and the Marquis of Qin have reconciled, our common goal next is the Lin family in Jiangnan and the wealthy families in the south. How can we engage in internal strife at this time?"

"Please rest assured, Marquis Qin, what you were like when you left will definitely be the same when you come back."

Feeling the sincerity shown in Ma Yu's words, Qin Feng only believed half of it. He immediately turned to look at Ma Yu with a strange smile on his lips.

"Mr. Ma, you know, I have learned a valuable experience along the way."

"The most untrustworthy thing in this world is human words."

"You say it's unfounded, how do you expect me to believe it?"

Ma Yu secretly cursed in his heart, if he had known earlier, he should not have come to Qin Feng, but now that he was fine, he actually got into the hole by himself.

Even the imperial ministers, including Emperor Liang, could not resist Qin Feng's methods.

How could a young general in Mayu cope with this? By this time, my palms were sweating.

"Qin... Lord Qin, just tell me what I have to do so that you can rest assured!"

Qin Feng glanced at the lake with his peripheral vision and asked instead, "Tell me, how cold is the lake in late autumn?"

Facing Qin Feng who was not following common sense, Ma Yu was even more panicked, but he could only answer bravely: "It will definitely freeze people to death!"

Qin Feng smiled: "I don't believe it."

Ma Yu's fist suddenly tightened. He already understood what Qin Feng meant. He slowly turned around, looked at the calm lake, took a deep breath, and jumped.

Just before he fell into the water, a big hand grabbed the back of Ma Yu's neck from behind and pulled him back directly.

Zhao Yulong's face was expressionless: "Master Ma, it's such a cold day, if you are out of the cold, how should Qin Hou explain to your father?"

Qin Feng wiped away his fierceness and patted Ma Yu on the shoulder with a smile: "Master Ma, you are too honest. I was just making a joke with you. Why do you take it seriously?"

"Haha, you are the son of the commander-in-chief of Dongying and the future pillar of the country. No one can predict what will happen in the future. If Brother Yulong and I die in battle, you will be the reserve general and I need you to step up. An honest man like you , I am destined not to be a jester, but I will definitely be a good general in the future. Okay, go back, don’t let your father-in-law worry."
