Madam, She Has a Tender Heart

[Recite the URL three times silently. Do you remember it? If not, I will ask again in the next chapter. It would be best if you can share it on Facebook for me.]

Lu Bocheng had a sweet nap.

Even his dreams were sweet.

He rarely took a nap in the past, and he didn't sleep well at night. Today, he had a rare nap and felt refreshed.

After getting up, he looked for his wife. He saw his wife ordering the servants to do things. Seeing his wife sitting at the top, planning and commanding, he felt very healthy.

It was like a person who had been thirsty for a long time and encountered a clear spring.

So, how could this family not have a woman in the backyard.

After Guo and the others left, Su Qingmei turned her head and saw Lu Bocheng supporting his chin with his hand, staring at her with a smile. It made her hair stand on end.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"My wife is pretty."

After saying that, he pulled Su Qing'an to sit on his lap, sniffing the feminine scent on her chest, and his heart was distracted. He just wanted to carry her back to the room. No matter whether it was day or night.

"Stop it!" Su Qing'an jumped away from him.

When he recovered, she glared at him fiercely and told him about Pei Xi.

"I know the Pei family. I met Prime Minister Pei in Chang'an before. It's a pity that the Pei family has fallen to this point."

It's all because of Wu Quanzhong, the ungrateful and shameless usurper. Now the Liang Dynasty is in turmoil, and he will take his life while he is in turmoil. Although he is gone, his children are still there. He can't swallow this breath unless he overthrows the Liang Dynasty.

In a few days, I will lead troops to seize Haizhou!

"I haven't asked you yet. You exchanged Zhaozhou and Yizhou for 3 million taels. Did you also exchange Weizhou and Caozhou for silver?"

Lü Bocheng shook his head: "No. I exchanged Zhaozhou and Yizhou for silver because I didn't intend to manage the north. And those two states are close to Jin. Yan was swallowed by Jin, and the remaining two states were taken by me. For Jin, it was like a thorn in the throat. It happened that I was short of silver, so I exchanged them to Mu Youxian."

"What about the other two states? Who did you exchange them to, and how much silver did you get?"

Lü Bocheng touched his nose: "The other two states were lost because we kept fighting the Liang Dynasty in the south. There were not many people guarding the city, and there was no one to take care of it, so the Liang Dynasty cut off the retreat."

How many soldiers he sacrificed to conquer those two states, and they were taken back by the Liang Dynasty in a blink of an eye. He felt very sick.

But they were a bunch of rough men, few of whom knew how to govern the city, and they did not do a good job of pacifying the people in the city. They were instigated to rebel, and they had to cooperate with the outside. This was also a big lesson for him.

So now, except for Xuzhou, the other four states also sent heavy troops to guard.

Just the people to govern? He was also worried.

If the officials of the Liang Dynasty were driven away, there would be no one. If they were not driven away, he was afraid that they would be dissatisfied and worried that they would do things behind his back.

And when they asked them for military expenses, they often had this and that problem. They asked for some money and were stingy, saying that the tax revenue could not be collected and there was no money in the government.

What could Lu Bocheng do? He couldn't send troops to kill them one by one.

He was in a big headache.

Pei Xi and his grandson were just walking outside the flower hall, and they happened to hear this conversation between him and his wife.

He understood.

"Sir, Madam, Pei Xi wants to see you."

When Lu Bocheng heard this, he immediately went to the door and welcomed the person in.

"Mr. Pei, please take a seat."

"No, no, no, I will just sit at the bottom."

Seeing that he insisted, Lv Bocheng had to sit back at the top.

Seeing that Pei Xi had brought his grandson with him, Su Qingmei did not leave. Looking at Pei Zhi, he saw that he was now ruddy, and it was obvious that he had recovered.

Looking at Pei Xi bringing this grandson with him in everything, one may be nervous, after all, this is the only one left in the direct line, and two, it seems that Pei Xi intends to train him personally.

"When I was in Chang'an before, I heard of Lord Lu's reputation and admired him very much."

"I dare not. I am just a rough man, and I heard about the Pei family when I was very young. The Pei family has made an indelible contribution to the prosperity and stability of Dashuo. I have also met your mother in Chang'an before, but it's a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to ask him for advice."

The two of them exchanged pleasantries.

Then they got to the point.

"If Bocheng can get help from Mr. Pei, he will be even more powerful."

"I dare not. If you don't mind, I am willing to serve you."

"That's great! So, from today on, you are the governor of Xuzhou, and I will hand over all the affairs of Xuzhou to you."

Pei Xi was shocked: "I dare not! I just came here, and it's not appropriate for me to take up an important position."

"There's nothing wrong. It turns out that the governor of Xuzhou fled back to the Central Plains, and the remaining officials were not valued before, and I also I stayed here, and now the military advisor is in charge, but it won't last long."

"Xuzhou has been a military stronghold since ancient times, and it is the first place for the Central Plains and other forces to attack from the south. It is of utmost importance. I hope you will help Bocheng to guard the gate of Zhenhai."

Pei Xi knelt down with a bang: "Pei Xi will not fail you!"

"Very good! Xuzhou will rely on you in the future."

"Yes, I will live up to your trust!"

The two then talked about Xuzhou's affairs for several hours, until the afterglow of the setting sun shone into the hall, and then they dispersed.

Pei Xi walked out of the flower hall with his grandson, and there seemed to be a fire burning in his chest.

He didn't expect it to be so smooth, and Lord Lu trusted him so much that he let him serve as the governor of Xuzhou.

Among the several states in Zhenhai, Xuzhou is obviously the gateway and the most important. Otherwise Master Lu would not have set up his base camp in Xuzhou, and he himself is also based in Xuzhou.

Let’s not talk about Yangzhou, let’s talk about other states. Whether it is climate, environment or economy, which one is not richer than Xuzhou?

Since the Lord trusts him, he will not let the Lord down.

Nowadays, adults are in desperate need of capable officials...

"Chi'er, I will grind ink for my grandfather at night. My grandfather wants to write some letters."

"yes."

In the flower hall, Su Qingyu also talked about this matter with Lu Bocheng.

"You gave such an important position so easily? Without checking it out?"

Lu Bocheng shook his head: "If he dares to come here, he must be confident. And I am not only looking at him as a person, but also the connections in his hands. Although the Pei family is lonely now, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. What I lack now is Man, if he can find some capable people to help me govern several states, why can't I Zhenhai do something good?"

"In the future, when I lead troops outside, I don't have to worry about the Liang Dynasty attacking, and I don't have to guard the north. And there is a Wu State next door, so how can I feel at ease? Although Zhenhai only has five states, if we manage it well No one else dares to provoke me easily.”

Su Qingyu looked at Lu Bocheng blankly.

After not seeing each other for several years, she felt that Lu Bocheng had changed and became...well, like a mountain.

A mountain that could make her and all his subordinates feel at ease.

"Madam, why do you think so much about being a husband? Do you want to be a husband? Otherwise..."

Su Qingyu glared at him: "It's not dark yet, and you just want to do good things!"

"It was useless for me to think about it when you were not here, but now that you are in front of me, why don't you let me think about it? I have been a vegetarian for many years. Madam, you are really cruel."
