"This... is too valuable." Yun Ling shook her head and returned the jade pendant. "I just recognize you as my foster father, not my biological daughter."

"You are my daughter now. Take it." Master Mu insisted that Yun Ling take his jade pendant. "From now on, we are a family."

"Thank you, foster father."

"Okay, okay, today is a good day. The kitchen has prepared the food. Let's sit down and have a good meal."

"Yes, yes, yes, I'm happy today, hahaha..."

After dinner.

Yuan Buwei went to the room and told Lu Sui about Yunling: "Did you have a smooth conversation with Xingzhou during the day?"

"It went smoothly." Lu Sui nodded. "Awei, thank you for your hard work."

"Why are you saying that again?" Yuan Buwei smiled. "Yun Ling recognized Master Mu as her adoptive father, all thanks to Mu Qing. It has nothing to do with me. She is the one you should thank."

"she……"

Lu Sui sneered: "She has been consumed by her own desires. I have done my best for her."

Yuan Buwei's eyes flickered: "It seems that you are going to close the net?"

"Xingzhou will do this."

"That's good."

Everything was going steadily forward as Yuan Buwei had planned.

The people around me are also trying their best to play their roles.

So from now on, Yuan Buwei will focus on Lu Sui for a long time.

Help him to stand up quickly.

The next day.

Mu Qing waited in the military camp for a whole day but Yun Ling didn't come out, so he went to find Ning Xingzhou in desperation.

"Yun Ling has something to do."

"What's she busy with?"

"I am not very sure."

"Don't you have that kind of relationship with her? Don't you care about what she does?" Mu Qing was angry.

"I only confirm whether she is safe. Whatever she does is her business. Similarly, she will not interfere with me." Ning Xingzhou raised his head and looked at Mu Qing. "But it's better that you came. If you don't come to me, I will also come to you. I will sort out the accounts of the past three years. You can take a look."

"Accounts?"

Mu Qing frowned: "I'm not in charge of the military accounts, so why should I look at them?"

"Take a look at it first." Ning Xingzhou handed the account book to Mu Qing.

Mu Qing took the account book suspiciously, opened it, and after looking at it for a few seconds, he was furious: "You bastard, you actually embezzled so much money from the military camp?"

"Silver is just the tip of the iceberg. I also discovered that they were bullying others in the army, and there was even a near-camp riot." Ning Xingzhou tapped the table with his fingers. "I was afraid of wrongly accusing good people, so I went to investigate with Li Yan in person. It turned out that all the roots came from your subordinates."

"impossible!"

Mu Qing denied it outright: "My subordinates have followed me through thick and thin, and they are my grandmother's subordinates. They are strictly disciplined and will never embezzle the money from the Gale Camp, let alone bully others."

"Yes, they are your subordinates, and even more so your grandmother's subordinates, but they are not the subordinates brought up by the young marquis, so they will not take the young marquis seriously. I even heard rumors that sooner or later, you will take over the Swift Wind Camp in place of the young marquis, and you also said that you want to change the name of the Swift Wind Camp to the Mu Family Army?" Ning Xingzhou looked at Mu Qing, whose face was gradually turning pale, with a half-smile, "Deputy General Mu, I don't believe you don't know anything about these things."

Mu Qing swallowed his saliva, not daring to look Ning Xingzhou in the eye: "I will go investigate now and give you a result."

"The results are all here. I have also explained the matter to the young marquis. The young marquis asked me to handle it according to military regulations, but I thought that they were your subordinates after all, so it was necessary to inform you."

"It's military regulations. They just made a mistake. I'll make up for the missing money. There's no need to deal with them according to military regulations, right?"

"The military regulations were established by the young marquis, and no one can disobey them. This is what made the Gale Camp so brave and invincible. Deputy General Mu should have heard the saying that kindness does not command the army, and justice does not command wealth. Just because there are things that have not been investigated does not mean that they have not done them. If Deputy General Mu wants to protect them..."

"Who said I was going to protect them? I just felt that your judgment was too hasty."

"Deputy General Mu, didn't I just say that I have already confirmed this matter with the young marquis? If you question my rashness, you are questioning the young marquis."

"I do not have."

"Then deal with it according to military regulations. No room for negotiation."

"you!"

Mu Qing clenched his fists instantly. "I will go to ask the young marquis in person. I just don't believe that the young marquis is so unkind."

"Okay, you go and ask the young marquis to review it. I have no objection." After Ning Xingzhou finished speaking, he ignored Mu Qing and lowered his head to concentrate on reading the documents again.

Mu Qing felt mixed emotions, and she rushed to the Wanning Marquis Mansion as quickly as possible.

Go to Lu Sui for confirmation.

"It's my decision. Those who made mistakes will be dealt with according to military regulations and expelled from the Swift Wind Camp."

"Why do you treat them like this? Lu Sui, don't forget, if it weren't for my grandmother's subordinates, would the Gale Camp have been established? You are destroying your bridges after crossing them." For the first time, Mu Qing couldn't help but quarrel with Lu Sui.

"Do you need me to build a longevity seat for them in the temple and worship them every day?" Lu Sui's eyebrows were full of frost, and his voice was piercingly cold. "I have always been fair in rewarding and punishing the soldiers of the Gale Camp. They are brothers who have been through life and death together, but I became the one who bullied them and even robbed the military merits that originally belonged to others. This is a taboo in the military camp. As a deputy general, Mu Qing, don't you know it?"

"Young Marquis, what I mean is, can you let me find out the situation first? Maybe this matter..."

"Such a big thing happened in the Swift Wind Camp. As the deputy general, you can't escape responsibility. Go back to the barracks and receive fifteen military sticks." Lu Sui interrupted Mu Qing and saw that she was about to speak unconvinced and continued, "Li Yan was beaten with twenty military sticks and is now lying in bed. If you don't believe me, you can go and see."

These words blocked all of Mu Qing's attempts to defend himself.

But when he thought about being beaten with fifteen military sticks, Mu Qing felt a little aggrieved: "I just don't believe it. I'm not trying to excuse them."

"You are questioning me, which is just an excuse for them."

Mu Qing frowned and said nothing.

"Are you still not leaving? Or do you need me to find a sedan chair with eight bearers to carry you back to the barracks?"

"Is there really no room for maneuver?" Mu Qing was making his final struggle.

"If you take on everything, take fifty military sticks, and leave the Swift Wind Camp, they will be able to stay. This matter needs someone to take responsibility in order to be resolved. Make your choice."

If he was hit by fifty military sticks, he would be dead.

Isn't this like putting her on the fire?
