Two months later, as expected by comrade Zhu Wu, in the two official documents issued by the court, Lu Qi was appointed as the regular military officer Zhiguo, a deputy governor of the Anhua Jiedu Guard, and the honorary officer Yunqi Wei. This was a military officer of the seventh rank. He jumped from a ninth rank military officer to a seventh rank official, and indeed borrowed the light of Yuwen Tao. Of course, he was also interested in promoting the military envoy Hu.

According to official documents, Yuwen Tao, who had never met before, was promoted to Sima of the sixth rank Xinzhou. He was a real power official. He was a three comrades-in-arms who survived the suicide mission together. Wang Ping and Zhu Wu were appointed as the lieutenant of the Zhechong School Captain and the deputy lieutenant of the Wusan official Yi. The two were two levels lower than Lu Qi in terms of rank. Wang Yong of the team was promoted to the Guoyi Commander. The second rank of the seventh rank, the deputy lieutenant of the Wusan official Zhiguo, was one level lower than Lu Qi. However, the three of them were appointed as real-time officers, and Lu Qi was just a famous and unpowered Wusan official.

After receiving the appointment of an official position, the four of them were extremely happy. They didn't expect to be promoted to such a high official position. Lu Qi also received a reward of fifty taels of gold as he wished, and also received a celebration banquet from Lord Hu.

Lord Hu's temporary residence was in Mashan Town, a military important military land. This time, the Tang army repelled the Yue army and recaptured Xinzhou. Lord Hu, one of the commanders, made some contributions and was promoted to the commander of the Zhechong Duwei. He was from the fourth-rank lower-rank Wusan official General Mingwei, who was still under the jurisdiction of the Xinghua Jiedushi. However, he was a general who actually held 10,000 military power, and he was transformed from a temporary commander to a regular army commander.

Mashan Town is very large, with a three-and-a-half-mile-long bluestone street running through the entire town. It was originally a wealthy town. Due to the war, it had been through ten houses and seven houses, but it became a treasure land for the army to live in.

Lu Qi was wearing a captain's armor, and Wang Yong was in the team. He was led by the commander of the commander to the best mansion in the town. There were stone steps and stone lions in front of the mansion, and eight armored soldiers stood on the steps.

When Wang Yong and the eight soldiers hurriedly put away their power and salute with solemn cross-arms, Wang Yong nodded and walked into the mansion. Lu Qi walked in the end with a calm expression. He was the highest in terms of official rank, but how dare he be arrogant in front of his three comrades-in-arms brothers?

When Lu Qi entered the army, he was just a soldier from the vanguard camp. In the difficulties of the bottom, Wang Yong chose him to enter the guard camp and became a horse explorer. Although he entered the guard camp, Lu Qi almost never talked to Lord Hu. In the heart-striking action two months ago, he was promoted from a soldier to a rank of ninth-rank upper-rank garrison lieutenant. After he survived his meritorious service, he actually became a rank of seventh-rank Zhiguo lieutenant.

He didn't know why Lord Hu surpassed Wang Yong's official rank and promoted him. He was puzzled or Zhu Wu told him the reason. The general idea was that if there were any war in the future, he would probably become Lord Hu's guard and commander, which was a high-ranking official. It was a job without power. Lu Qi didn't care about what happened in the future, and Wang Yong and the other three were still close to him, which made him feel relieved.

After entering the mansion, there was a somewhat messy courtyard, with more than a dozen soldiers tidying up. Wang Yong struded his head and headed straight to the front door. There were eight soldiers guarding outside the door. When he saw Wang Yong's soldiers greeting him, one of them entered the hall to report and quickly came out to say that the lord would like to invite him.

The four of them walked into the hall with a serious expression. When they entered the hall, they saw that in addition to the red-faced Lord Hu, there was also a cowardly civil servant wearing a sixth-rank upper-level official uniform and white-faced official. Lu Qi obviously saw that the civil servant was carefully scanning them.

"I'll pay homage to the general." Wang Yong's voice loudly represented the four people's words, and all four people were respectful military salute.

Lord Hu nodded with a smile and said in harmony: "Don't give me any gifts."

The four of them were straight behind him, and Lord Hu said suavingly: "Wang Yong, this is Lord Han, the Minister of War."

Wang Yong hurriedly said respectfully: "Please pay homage to Lord Han."

The civil servant Lord Han smiled and said, "You are polite. I heard from Lord Hu that Lord Wang has made many military achievements and is the commander of the Zuowei Camp. I congratulate Lord Wang on his behalf."

"Mr. Thank you for your love. Wang Yong's income today was given by the general." Wang Yong said respectfully.

"Hey, don't say that, your income was rewarded by the court on merits." Lord Hu immediately corrected it in harmony, but his expression was satisfied.

"Yes, my subordinates misled their words." Wang Yong said respectfully.

Lord Hu turned his head to look at Lord Han and smiled and said, "Mr. Han, Wang Yong is loyal and righteous, has elite military strategy and tactics. He is also an official. Is it appropriate for him to see?"

Lord Han glanced at Wang Yong, glanced at Lu Qi and the other two, then turned around and picked up a few teas and took a sip, holding the tea bowl and lowered his eyes and pondered. This scene made Lu Qi feel inexplicable, and he didn't know what Lord Han was thinking.

After a while, Lord Han said calmly: "Mr. Wang, who are there in your family?"

Wang Yong said respectfully: "Sir, Xiaguan's parents are alive, and they have two brothers. Xiaguan himself has a wife, eight concubines, two sons and four daughters."

After hearing this, Lord Han put the tea bowl and returned to the table, and then said seriously: "Mr. Wang, I have a niece who is willing to be your wife. However, my niece is the legitimate daughter of my brother. If you become your fair wife, it seems to be wronged. What should you do?"

Wang Yong's face changed when he heard this, and he lowered his head and was silent on the spot. Lu Qi was stunned and thought to himself that Lord Hu said that he would congratulate them on the banquet, how could he have proposed a marriage for Wang Yong? He looked at Wang Yong with a slight surprise.

Just as he was attracted by it, he suddenly heard Lord Han say, "Mr. Hu, who is that seventh-rank captain?"

Lu Qi was shocked and heard Lord Hu say with a harmonious voice: "His surname is Lu and his name is Tianfeng. It's time to leave the army and return home in a few days."

Lord Han said lightly, and Lord Hu said again: "Mr. Han, Lu Tianfeng has excellent martial arts skills and has made many military achievements. He has not yet started a family in his youth and is loyal, righteous and filial. This time he took the initiative to leave the army and return to his hometown to serve his mother."

Lu Qi was shocked when he heard this. He didn't want to compete with Wang Yong for any benefits. Wang Yong has always been very good to him in the army. He heard Lord Han say harmoniously: "Mr. Wang, do you don't want to marry me if you don't speak?"

Wang Yong said respectfully: "It is hard to marry an adult, but the wife of the lower official is married by his parents' order. The lower official dare not do anything that makes his parents sad. Please be kind to him."

Lord Han said coldly: "What are you talking about? Did I force you?"

Wang Yong's body trembled, hesitated for a moment, and then squatted down and knelt down halfway and said, "Sir, the official is very willing to marry you, but he can only marry a noble niece as a fair wife. The official can swear that if he gets married to the official, he will definitely live up to his love."

Lord Han looked at Wang Yong who was kneeling down coldly, and after a while, he nodded. Lord Hu smiled and said, "Wang Yong, get up, Lord Han has fallen in love with you."

Wang Yongmeng looked up and said in surprise: "Really."

"Of course it's true. I won't kowtow to pay homage to Lord Han." Lord Hu said with a smile.

"Wang Yong greets uncle." Wang Yong lifted his armor and knelt down and kowtowed three times.

Lord Han smiled and stood up to help Wang Yong up, and said in a harmonious voice: "If you can maintain your loyalty and filial piety without pursuing profit, I will marry my niece to you with confidence."

Wang Yong looked excited and joyful, and said respectfully: "Thank you for your love."

Wang Ping and Zhu Wu bowed together and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the Lord Duwei."

Lu Qi also hurriedly said, "Congratulations to Master Duwei." Wang Yong returned the favor with joy, and it was obvious that he was really happy.

"Haha, let's go, let's have a drink and celebrate with you." Lord Hu stood up and said with a smile.

After we were kind enough, the group went to the back. Behind the hall was a very spacious patio-style back house. Two square tables were arranged in the courtyard surrounded by the house. The two square tables were five meters apart, and there was a bamboo-back chair for two seats on each side of the square table.

Lu Qi attended an official banquet for the first time. He was unaware of it and followed Zhu Wu carefully. Zhu Wu was a man with a cold face and had a good martial arts. Many things Lu Qi had in the army were taught by Zhu Wu, so Lu Qi felt the closest to Zhu Wu.

"You three are here and go there as you like." Lord Hu said with a finger on the square table inside.

"Yes." Lu Qi, Zhu Wu and Wang Ping responded, turned around and walked in, stopped at the square table that Lord Hu pointed to, and sat on the bamboo chair. Lord Hu, Lord Han and Wang Yong sat around the other table, and the closeness and alienation of the upper and lower levels was invisibly reflected.

"Haha, it's great now. Brother Wang has found a strong backer and we can benefit from it in the future." Wang Ping couldn't wait to speak as soon as he sat down. This was a straightforward man who couldn't hide his words.
