Heifengzhai
The Houcheng negotiating team headed by Lu Desheng signed a three-year peace treaty with the Xianbei Royal Court. For this huge result, ordinary people were happy, as were the bandits in Liaodong County and even Pingzhou.
As the saying goes, if there are no tigers in the mountains, the monkeys will be the kings!
"In the next three years, our Heifeng Village will definitely rule the world!" the leader of Heifeng Village said confidently.
Other bandits echoed, "This Lu Desheng is making wedding clothes for us."
When it comes to the new Houcheng County Magistrate, the bandits also have endless things to say.
"I heard that this old man has been busy trying to persuade Nasha Nongsang recently."
"Exhort Nong Sang!"
"Yes, yes, that's it."
"What does this mean?"
"Stupid, this means encouraging farmers to encourage people to farm."
"This is good! Farming is great. Farming is wonderful. When autumn comes, we will steal the grain!"
"That makes sense, hahaha."
The village leader took a sip of wine and sighed, "How good this old man is. He solved the crisis in Houcheng and even the entire Liaodong County as soon as he came. Otherwise, we would all be planning to run away." Now we can live comfortably for another three years.
The people below immediately agreed, "This old man is really good. As far as I know, many people have secretly set up longevity cards for him, hoping that he will live a long life and continue to work in Liaodong County."
"Tomorrow, our Black Wind Village will also give him a longevity card! Hahaha." The leader of the Black Wind Village laughed.
At this time, the man in charge of patrolling at the foot of the mountain rushed into the hall, "Master, it's bad!"
As soon as Xiao Luolu finished speaking, he was patted on the head by the bandit next to him, "Can you speak? You are the boss and are doing a good job."
The leader of Black Wind Village nodded with satisfaction to the young bandit who was training him, and then said to Xiao Luoluo, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Master, the government has sent troops to attack your Black Wind Village."
"What's yours and mine should be ours, do you understand? Wait, what did you say?"
"The younger one said, boss, the government has sent troops to attack our Black Wind Stronghold."
"Who just said that old man Lu Desheng is nice?" The leader of Black Wind Village slowly turned his head and came out to see if I won't beat you to death!
The bandits remained silent.
No, they haven't done anything recently and are very peaceful. Why did they attract the attention of the government?
"Master, what should we do?"
"What else can I do? They're beating me right in front of my house. Of course they're copycats, so fuck them!"
An hour later, the leader of Heifeng Village died. All the bandits, except those who resisted stubbornly, were killed, and those who surrendered were all tied up and brought back to the county government, where they were raped again.
The most important thing is that the warehouses in Heifeng Village were emptied.
Qin Sheng even personally took people to walk around Heifeng Village and dug out some hidden gold and silver jewelry.
After Qin Sheng and others escorted the people away, Heifeng Village became empty until late at night, when the village owner's henchman crawled out of a dry well.
As soon as he came out, he ran to the village leader's treasure trove. When he arrived, he was dumbfounded, and then he started cursing, are the people in the government like dogs? The owners of these gold and silver jewelery houses were so well hidden, could they be found?
Houcheng County Government
The imperial envoy from Chang'an City who was ordered to commend Lu Desheng and his party finally arrived.
After the incense table was placed, the imperial envoy began to preach the imperial edict.
"The emperor is entrusted with the destiny of heaven, and the edict says: I have a minister, Lu Desheng, who is agile and practical in the world. When Dali was in danger, he was very brave and courageous. He tried his best to turn the tide and resolve the crisis of Xianbei going south again. I am very relieved, and I will pull you out of Zhai. As the governor of Liaodong County, I would like to commend you for your meritorious service. I hope that you will continue to serve the court in your new position and live up to my wishes! I appreciate this!"
Lu Desheng thanked him, "I thank you for your grace. Long live my emperor!"
Other members of the Lu family also thanked him, "Thank you Lord for your kindness, long live my emperor!"
The imperial envoy who came to announce the decree this time was none other than Zhou Chengzhong, Lu Desheng's former boss at the Yushitai.
"Master Lu, congratulations." Zhou Chengzhong handed the imperial edict to Lu Desheng, who enshrined it on the incense table and congratulated him at the same time.
"Same joy, same joy." Lu Desheng laughed.
Zhou Chengzhong shook his head, how could he be so happy? This Lu Desheng is still out of tune!
However, this man's luck is really good. This time he took off his official uniform and left Chang'an. Everyone thought it would take a long time to hear news about him. Some people even thought darkly that it would be impossible to hear about him again. When the news comes, maybe it’s bad news.
Who would have thought that he had made great achievements as soon as he took office, and then the emperor had to reward him. He went from county magistrate to county governor in half a month. This promotion was too fast.
Lu Desheng didn't know what he was saying. After enshrining the imperial edict, he raised his hands to Zhou Chengzhong and others and said, "I have prepared a banquet in the VIP building. I hope you won't give up. Please move on."
"Master Lu, you're welcome."
Lu Desheng had a meal with Zhou Chengzhong and others, arranged accommodation for them, and left Lu Zhiyuan to run errands for them.
When Lu Desheng returned home, his family congratulated him one after another.
"Congratulations, dad. Congratulations, dad, for your promotion and your fortune."
"Congratulations, grandpa, congratulations to grandpa, for your promotion and your fortune."
Looking at his children and grandchildren, Lu Desheng said happily, "We are happy together, haha."
He touched the mustache on his chin and thought to himself that the official position of county magistrate before was still too small. Now that he has become a county magistrate, he can better protect his family and relatives.
The next day, Lu Desheng rarely stayed in bed and did not want to think about it.
Mrs. Jiang was cleaning up the house, "You'd better get up. Ah Li is waiting for you. She should have something to say."
Lu Desheng pulled up the quilt and covered his head, as if I don't want to listen.
Jiang ignored him and didn't even try to persuade him.
Sure enough, not long after, Lu Desheng lifted the quilt and got up slowly.
He muttered, "All women here are debts!"
When Lu Desheng and Mr. Jiang came to the main hall together, they found that not only the youngest daughter and son-in-law were there, but also the eldest son, eldest daughter-in-law, younger son, and the eldest daughter and her husband. It was obvious that his youngest daughter had something to say.
Lu Desheng looked at his daughter and said helplessly, "My father just got promoted yesterday. Can't you make me happy again? Can you take a break?"
Everyone else covered their mouths and laughed.
Lu Songli also laughed, and after she finished laughing, she flattered her father, "Dad, you are so young, a night's rest is enough."
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Lu Desheng couldn't do anything to her.
"Dad, I want to open an academy and you will be the honorary headmaster."
