It's better to be an empress than a county magistrate

At this time, Murong Feihe felt that the grain in the Yuzhou granary was given to him for free by Lu Xingchen.

He was a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Wang Mao was a smart man and said immediately, "Thank you, General."

Lu Xingchen smiled faintly. "You're welcome. This is the agreement we made before."

"I have always been a man of my word."

"Young Master Murong, I have other things to do, please feel free to do as you please." Lu Xingchen said.

Murong Feihe nodded.

Lu Xingchen turned her horse around and was about to leave. Murong Feihe suddenly stepped in front of her horse and reached out to grab the reins.

"Master Murong, do you have anything else to say?" Lu Xingchen rode on the horse, looking down at the man in front of him.

The man raised his head slightly, revealing his handsome face.

He has foreign ancestry, so he has high eyebrows, a broad face, and his whole face looks very tough.

"Is the Governor ever married?"

Lu Xingchen,...

"This is my personal matter. It's a bit rude of Master Murong to ask this."

"Sorry, sorry..." Murong Feihe also felt that he was being too abrupt and awkwardly let go of Lu Xingchen's reins.

Lu Xingchen glanced at him, then gently whipped the horsewhip and walked forward.

"Master, you are so awesome! You like to hit the straight ball." Wang Mao looked at Murong Feihe with admiration.

Murong Feihe's face was filled with embarrassment. "It's so embarrassing."

"Master finally met someone he likes, it's nothing."

Wang Mao encouraged, “There are many women in this world, but very few good women.”

"If you meet someone you like, you should pursue them. No matter if it succeeds or not, just confess your feelings first."

Murong Feihe coughed twice awkwardly, then turned and walked out of the city gate.

The next morning, Murong Feihe brought his soldiers and drove a horse-drawn carriage to fetch food.

Lu Xingchen asked Lu Yun to handle this matter.

Murong Feihe always wanted to meet Lu Xingchen, but in the end he never did.

Murong Feihe left Yuzhou with the food and returned to Yanzhou.

After Lu Xingchen took over Yuzhou, he transferred Master Guo from He County to Yuzhou.

The land in Yuzhou is fertile, and because of its southern location, wheat can be harvested twice a year.

So the winter wheat in the wheat fields is growing green at this time.

"It's a pity that it's a little late." Lu Xingchen said, looking at the wheat field.

"If it's earlier, we can plant our high-yield wheat in time."

Master Guo said with a smile, "The wheat is growing well."

"Liu Cheng is not a jerk. He is quite conscientious."

"During this period, after sorting out the account books, he basically did not embezzle much money. He can be considered a good official who is honest and upright."

"And he has a high reputation among the people."

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly. "Then keep it and find a place for him when there's a chance..."

"Put him in Yongzhou first, and let him follow my uncle."

Master Guo smiled and nodded, "Of course you can."

Master Guo instantly imagined Lu Yunfeng's annoyed look as he didn't want to train a new person but had to.

"Brother..." A little boy saw Murong Feihe coming back, and excitedly jumped off his pony and ran to him.

Murong Feihe picked up the child.

"Do you miss your brother?" Murong Feihe asked with a smile.

"Of course I do. I started missing my big brother from the first day he left." Murong Yunhai's face flushed.

"Brother, how was your trip this time? Did you gain anything?"

Murong Feihe smiled and nodded. "It's a great harvest."

"What have we gained? Have we taken over Yuzhou?" Murong Yunhai asked excitedly.

Murong Feihe shook his head, "Yuzhou was not taken."

Murong Yunhai looked disappointed.

The child's thinking was too simple. If Yuzhou had been taken, why would Murong Feihe be here now?

"Brother..." Sun Yuehui walked forward and greeted Murong Feihe.

Murong Feihe nodded indifferently.

This is Murong Feihe's brother-in-law, the son-in-law invited by his sister.

He has a face that women like.

However, Murong Feihe did not like such a gentle man.

"Father is already waiting for you in the meeting hall." Sun Yuehui didn't seem to care about Murong Feihe's coldness towards him, and there was no expression on his face.

This is another reason why Murong Feihe dislikes Sun Yuehui. This man is too scheming. His sister, who is as innocent as a piece of paper, is no match for this man.

Now she is protected by her father and brother. It is hard to predict what the outcome would be without them.

Murong Feihe brought Huang Shan and Wang Mao to the meeting hall of Yanzhou government.

When Murong Nan learned that Murong Feihe had returned to Yanzhou, he naturally also knew that Yuzhou had not been taken.

Of course, he had already learned the details of the matter from the people sent back by Wang Mao.

While feeling fortunate, he also developed a deep sense of crisis.

"Father, I'm back." Murong Feihe walked quickly to Murong Nan.

Murong Nan is forty years old, with a sturdy build, a broad face and a full beard. He is a mature and strong man.

Murong Nan looked calm and nodded, "Sit down and talk."

So Murong Feihe told Murong Nan in detail the specific circumstances of this trip.

During this period, Murong Nan also asked for the opinions of Wang Mao and Huang Shan.

Wang Mao is steady and Huang Shan is smart, and they are his adopted sons whom he values ​​very much.

"I didn't expect this woman to be so powerful." Murong Nan couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.

"Godfather, she is also very ambitious." Wang Mao said.

"She will definitely not stop at Yuzhou."

Murong Nan nodded slightly.

"Then what do you think she will do next? After all, Yongzhou is already hers. She can use it as a rear base and move forward." Murong Nan looked at Wang Mao and asked.

"Before she attacked Yuzhou, she must have made a choice between Yuzhou and Yanzhou, and finally chose Yuzhou." Wang Mao said.

"So she should continue to advance to the southwest. The final target should be Jingzhou..."

"Jingzhou is located between the Huai River and the Yellow River. The plains formed by the two rivers are fertile and have abundant food and grass. If we use this place as a base, we can cross the Yangtze River to the south and plan for Shanzhou and Qinzhou to the west."

"We can go north to Liangzhou..."

"You said this girl is only seventeen years old." Murong Nan was a little skeptical about Lu Xingchen's age.

Huang Shan nodded. "She was about sixteen or seventeen years old, and very beautiful. The young master was instantly fascinated by her."

Murong Feihe glared at Huang Shan a little embarrassedly.

Murong Nan looked at Murong Feihe.

Murong Feihe's cheeks turned slightly red.

"Dad, don't listen to their nonsense."

Murong Nan understood his eldest son well and knew that he had never been interested in women.

When he was fifteen, he gave two women to Murong Feihe, but Murong Feihe did not touch them.

This shows that he is not very interested in women.

He is still a virgin until now, and he is in his early twenties.

But getting back to the point, if a man meets a woman he likes, it can be very dangerous.

"Dad, she is indeed very beautiful."

"Is she prettier than her sister?" Murong Yunhai asked without thinking.

In Murong Yunhai's eyes, his sister is the most beautiful woman in the world.
