Chapter 4: Surrender

Lu Muqing waited for a long time, and in the evening, he saw Ling Mengchu returning home. The two have not seen each other for just half a year, and their identities and statuses have been turned upside down. Ling Mengchu hooked Lu Muqing's neck, and said stupidly: "I ran away in vain, and I brought Huangteng wine to find you, but you actually ran to my house!" ”

There was a sound of the evening bell in the west of the city in the sky, Lu Muqing looked out the window, his face was indifferent, "Xia Rong and Ren Jun are both in command, can Zhongshu Province agree?" Ling Mengchu suppressed his smile and shook his head, "You're just a fire detective now, aren't they all the same who commands the army?" Besides, this is the meaning of the official family, and the Queen Mother also agrees, what can Zhongshu Province do? ”

"If the Bianjing Fire Administration is controlled by Xia Rong and the commander, General Mei will be tantamount to adding wings to the tiger." Lu Muqing said worriedly.

Ling Mengchu sighed, "The officials don't pay attention to it, what are you doing." In my opinion, you should think about your situation. From the deputy commander to the fire probe, since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, you have been demoted for risking fire to save people, you are the only one who has never been seen before. I can't figure it out, it's just that Xia Rong and Xinkou Kou Huang put all the blame on you, you have a mouth, and you are a close relative of Lu Xiang, why can't you say a word of rebuttal? Are you mute? ”

He muttered a lot of words, and Lu Muqing had already stepped out of the door with half a foot.

Lu Muqing said: "It's past the unitary time, I should go back to the barracks, and I have to be on duty at night." He was thinly dressed and walked briskly, and he flew out of the antechamber in a few steps. Ling Mengchu shouted in the back: "You haven't drunk the wine yet?" ”

"Keep it and drink it next time."

The military camp of the Infantry Division was originally located outside the city, but because of the endless fires in Bianjing City in recent years, the officials were very worried, so they ordered the Infantry Division to station hundreds of soldiers at the Suzaku Gate to patrol at night. Lu Muqing is a leader in the Jingxiang Army, subordinate to the front division of the palace, and was later transferred to the infantry army division as the deputy commander of the capital, responsible for the fire ban in the royal street in the Suzaku Gate.

At present, Lu Muqing walked into the station, and the former attendant and current colleague, the firefighter Jia Chongjiu, bumped into his head, "My lord, you can count it back!" Xia Rong and ...... Natsu-sama is waiting for you in the house. ”

The corners of Lu Muqing's lips were slightly tilted, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes, he walked up the steps without hurrying, lifted the curtain and entered the house, and saw Xia Ronghe standing under the window in official uniforms, glanced at it lightly, and didn't care, and took off the fireproof suit from the truss to change clothes. The soldier standing shouted: "Bold, don't hurry up and meet the commander of the Xia army." ”

Xia Rong spoke with this, "Presumptuous! You all get out! The mouth is sharp, but the eyes are faint.

Lu Muqing had already changed into fireproof clothing, took out the gong and water bladder from the cabinet, and said, "The hour has come, I'm going out on patrol." What are you looking for me? Xia Ronghe slammed his fist on the gong, and his eyebrows showed a smile, "I know that with your ability, no one in the Infantry Division can compare with you, and being a little fire probe is really insulting to you." I am a man who cherishes talents, if you are willing, how about being an attendant by my side? As long as you surrender to me, I will find an opportunity to help you intercede with the officials......"

"Xia Ronghe!" Lu Muqing's eyes erupted with fire, and he grabbed Xia Rong and his neck, "Surrender? Do you deserve it? ”

Xia Ronghe stood steadily, the corners of his mouth showed contempt, "General Mei treats you very well, and has praised you in front of everyone several times, why should you?" You are loyal to the official family, do the official family know? Those who know the times are Junjie, you still don't understand this truth? ”

Lu Muqing let go abruptly and said in a deep voice: "Get out!" ”

Xia Ronghe straightened his clothes, walked out of the door calmly, and left a sentence: "If you change your mind, tell me at any time, I have patience." After he left, Jia Chongjiu carried the lantern into the house and said respectfully: "Your Excellency, ......"

Lu Muqing returned to his usual color and smiled lightly, "Don't call me Lord again in the future, I'm just like you, I'm a fire probe." After speaking, he packed up his belongings and walked out the door.
