Chapter 242 Playing Such a Big Game

While waiting for her father to come back, Xue Xu chatted with her about the stall in Dragon City.

Longcheng was basically on the right track. When he left, he left Xiao Kun in charge.

Lu Songli knew that Xiao Kun was a relatively calm person. He had been following Qin Sheng before, and he was also one of the leading figures in the reconnaissance team.

Since Xue Xu could entrust the mess to him and let him take charge of it, Lu Songli was relatively relieved about it.

At this time, a voice sounded outside, "He's back! Mr. Lu is back!"

After hearing this, Lu Songli immediately stood up and went to greet him. Qin Sheng hurriedly followed him with a wink, and the others also stood up.

Lu Songli supported his arm and came to the main seat, "Dad, you have worked hard. You must be tired. Please sit down."

Qin Sheng immediately brought him tea and said, "Father-in-law, please drink some water."

Lu Desheng glanced at him, and he seemed to be interested.

Lu Songli also gave him an approving look.

Lu Desheng took the cup and drank a full glass of water. He was really exhausted.

"Dad, are you finished handing over?" Lu Songli counted the time, and it was quite fast.

"The handover is over and everything went smoothly."

Lu Desheng happily took out the seal and two letters of appointment. From now on, he was the magistrate of Houcheng County.

Lu Desheng couldn't hide his pride. This Houcheng County Magistrate had a hard time getting it.

Qin Heng and others all felt that he loved his daughter. For the sake of his daughter, he was sent from outside Chang'an City to this border where chickens don't lay eggs and birds don't poop.

Lu Songli picked up the two appointment letters, glanced at them, and handed one of them to Xue Xu.

Xue Xu took it and lowered his eyes to see the appointment letter saying that Xue Xu (Xue Guangxian) was appointed as the chief registrar of the Houcheng County Yamen...

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He had worked for the Chen family for more than ten years, but Chen Jiaye had never thought of seeking an official position for him. He has only been serving the Sixth Young Madam for a short time, and he has already been promoted to an official position. Although this is only a subordinate official who is not the official seal official, is it still an official?

He immediately stood up and said, "Master Lu, Madam Six, the Crown Prince...it is better to go to the grassland sooner rather than later. Time is running out. Xue has to set off."

Lu Songli also stood up, "We would like to wish Mr. Xue all the best and success."

Qin Heng called someone, "Zhou Da, please order a few people to protect Mr. Xue on a trip to the grassland."

Lu Songli raised her hand, "Brother——"

Qin Heng and others looked towards her.

“Let Ah Sheng go.” Lu Songli explained, “Mr.

The most important thing is that the danger cannot be borne entirely by the people below, but no one from the Qin family came forward and all stayed in the safe zone.

Qin Sheng's eyes were bright. In the eyes of his wife, was he so powerful?

Qin Heng thought for a moment and then nodded, "A Sheng, then you can take Zhou Da and others."

It's not that he doesn't want the Qin family to take risks, but they just arrived at the Houcheng military camp and can't help themselves. But now that the sixth brother and sister have spoken, Master Lu will definitely help solve the problem of Xiao Liu's absence during this period.

Neither father nor daughter are sticklers, so just do it.

Xue Xu gave them a final nod and then strode out.

"Daughter-in-law, shall I leave then?" Qin Sheng asked softly.

"Go ahead."

Lu Desheng didn't move. What happened during his absence?

Lu Songli then explained to him Xue Xu's mission to the grassland.

Finally, she said, "Dad, Mr. Xue is running a secret line and is secretly assisting."

Lu Desheng: Yes, he understands this. This is how the navy he raised in Chang'an played like this. They secretly promoted public opinion and openly attacked targeted targets, but this time the main battlefield was on the grassland.

Lu Songli directly started the follow-up plan, "Dad, whether this can happen or not depends on you."

Lu Desheng: "Daughter, don't say that, dad feels a lot of pressure. Don't forget, dad is currently just a Houcheng county magistrate, Liaodong County also has a county governor, and further up, Liaodong County can be said to be affiliated with Pingzhou, the top And the governor. "He can't take the initiative in such a big thing as Xianbei's army going south. Moreover, there must be a response from the imperial court, and he will not be allowed to make the decision.

Lu Songli smiled and comforted him, "Dad, you can decide this matter. You are the magistrate of Houcheng County, and you also have the responsibility to protect the land." Since you have responsibilities, you should have corresponding powers.

You must know that before her father became the magistrate of Houcheng County, he was a censor. He had a little more power. What happened?

And if her father wants to intervene, it is expected that Zheng Xun, the governor of Liaodong County, will have no objection.

Lu Songli guessed correctly. Faced with the complicated situation in Liaodong, Xianbei's powerful dignitaries, and Lu Desheng's forced intervention, Zheng Xun's reaction was like an ostrich.

Just report the situation.

For Lu Songli, the key to solving the crisis must lie with her father. It doesn't matter if she's not here now, she must help her father get the initiative and voice in the negotiations. Otherwise, her plan will become uncontrollable.

Lu Desheng: It sounds reasonable.

"Okay, girl, you tell me what to do." Lu Desheng said impassionedly. He extended his head and slashed his head, and then he played with his daughter. Anyway, she would never harm him.

Time was urgent, so Lu Songli stopped being polite and said, "Father, first, in the name of the magistrate of Houcheng County, write a letter to Le Guicai, the commander of Liaodong County, saying that you have something to discuss and invite him to come."

The first step is to pull up your own personnel first.

"What if he doesn't come?" He is a county magistrate, and he is a county lieutenant.

"He will come. Tell him that without releasing Tuobalian, you have a way to calm this storm and make this war impossible. He will definitely come."

In fact, if her plan succeeds, Tuobalian will still have to be released. However, it’s not right to trick people first, but to coax them over first.

Let Le Guicai authorize Tuobalian's use rights to them first. This is a prerequisite, otherwise Xianbei can negotiate with them?

Lu Desheng: Does he have this ability?

"Daughter, do you really have a solution?" Don't talk nonsense. In the end, it won't work. If the first fire of his new official's appointment is not ignited, he will lose his face.

"Yes." Lu Songli said affirmatively.

"Okay, I'll write this letter!"

"Dad, then, in the name of Houcheng County Magistrate, you send an official letter to the two magistrates of Wangping and Wulu County, inviting them to come to Houcheng and discuss together how to retreat from the enemy."

"They will come. Wait for them, and then we will negotiate with Xianbei in the name of Liaodong County or the imperial court." She has already decided on the members of the negotiating group.

Now the two county magistrates are facing such a critical situation. They want to run but can't. They are probably as anxious as ants on a hot pot. As long as there is a chance, they will not give up. What's more, her father is very famous in Chang'an, so they will want to come and see him.

"Daughter, are we having such a big time?" Lu Desheng asked, what should I do if I'm a little scared?

"Dad, we are not afraid." This is not an unsolvable situation. If there was really no way to solve it, she would have run away with everyone long ago.

Lu Desheng thought for a while, "What about the governor of Liaodong County and the governor of Pingzhou?" If we really want to negotiate, there is no way around them.

"Zheng Xun, don't worry. As for the governor of Pingzhou, let's see if we can stop him."

Play big, play big.

"Daughter, please take it easy. Don't be so big. Dad's small body can't bear it." Lu Desheng's voice trembled.

When he was in Chang'an City, the late emperor gave him the confidence. The late emperor is gone, but the gold medal he gave to avoid death is still there, so he has the confidence to mess around. Now, he has nothing. To be honest, he was a bit timid when he started playing so big.

"Dad, don't worry, my daughter won't let you leave these hundreds of pounds in Houcheng. Houcheng is not worthy of it." Lu Songli comforted him.

Brothers of the Qin family: I have seen this for a long time. It turns out that in Chang'an City, Master Lu, who frightened the ministers, behaves like this in front of his daughter.

However, the sixth brother and sister's game was indeed a bit too big. They seized power, deceived the superiors and deceived the inferiors, and they all lived together.

Her boldness and courage are truly breathtaking.

"Sixth brother and sister, if we are needed, just give us your orders. There are also Ma Jin and other people at your disposal."

"Okay." She wouldn't be polite.

For Lu Songli, there is only one chance, and this opportunity is too rare. After passing this level, Houcheng is theirs.

As for what will happen if the court finds out later?

If she doesn't succeed, her father will be a bear. Her father has been released. If Hou Cheng fails, the new emperor Song Mo will not give her father another chance. If she succeeds, she can turn her father into a national hero! Even the court had to hold its nose and praise her father!
