Seeing that Li Hongchang returned safely, and also took the head of the flying thief Yan San'er, the two looked at each other and smiled, both of them knew that the other party had returned in a hurry.

Qin Nan and Li Hongchang exchanged experiences, and learned that Li Hongchang was really fighting with force, and that Yan San'er was also a master of martial arts, and his force was strong, and Li Hongchang took a lot of effort to kill the other party.

The reason why this trip to exterminate the bandits was so smooth was mainly due to the fact that the governor Lu Feng had made sufficient preparations in advance, and attacked with lightning speed, which caught the enemy by surprise.

After that, Lu Feng held a banquet in the governor's mansion to give Qin Nan and Li Hongchang a warm drink.

Originally, Lu You, as the governor's daughter, ran out of the governor's mansion without permission and followed Qin Nan to suppress the bandits, but Lu Feng did not allow this matter, and at that time he was furious and beat the caretaker's subordinates.

But now that Lu You has returned safely, and he has made great efforts in the process of encircling and suppressing Liema Villa, he, his father and governor, has nothing to say.

At the celebration feast, everyone talked about the next way.

"Hongzhang, I've already inquired, the imperial court has recently recruited such a group of soldiers, and the red-headed texts have come down, let the local recommend, I'm going to let you try it." ”

Lu Feng took a sip of wine and said to Li Hongchang. Li Hongchang has now created a nationality and changed his name, he is no longer Li Hongchang, but Li Hongzhang, and has the meaning of both civil and military.

Li Hongzhang nodded and said, "Okay, I'm going to take Brother Nan with me, if Miss Guzhu wants, she can also come with us." It's just that this time the recruitment is actually a red-headed text, is there anything special?"

Li Hongzhang was a little puzzled, it was actually a red-headed essay, which was quite special among the many essays.

Lu Feng pondered for a moment and said: "The specific requirement is to recruit soldiers with clean identities and skills, and they also have to go to the demon beast battlefield for assessment, I don't know what the specific situation is, but I just heard from the messenger that it is related to the remnants of the previous dynasty." ”

"The remnants of the previous dynasty?"

When everyone heard this, they were all slightly surprised, this red-headed Wenwen recruited soldiers, it was really unusual, and they had to recruit skilled soldiers to go to the demon beast battlefield for assessment, and the purpose was to deal with the remnants of the previous dynasty.

It has been more than 100 years since the founding of the Yamato Kingdom, and the remnants of the previous dynasty have repeatedly caused trouble, and in the past, the local government came forward to encircle and suppress and solve things, but I didn't expect that this time it was actually ready to recruit a group of capable recruits to solve it, it seems that things are a bit strict.

Lu Feng took another sip of wine and said: "Hongzhang, with your skills, it must not be difficult to build a military feat, and when the matter is over, I will find a way to use the relationship between the DPRK and China to transfer you to my side, and then I will give you an official and a knight, presumably others will have nothing to say." ”

Lu Feng was extremely thoughtful in considering things, after Li Hongzhang's case record was cleared, he changed his nationality and changed his name, and he was no longer the guerrilla general he used to be.

When Li Hongzhang went to build military merits this time, and was awarded a knighthood or something, he used his connections to transfer Li Hongzhang to his side, and he was directly a guerrilla general, soaring into the sky, and his military merits were first, and no one could think of getting the truth.

Li Hongzhang nodded, thinking that this arrangement was very good, looking at Qin Nan, he also wanted to hear what Qin Nan meant, after all, Qin Nan was free, but he had no obligation to follow him to go into danger to exterminate the remnants of the previous dynasty.

Qin Nan didn't say much, nodded his head, indicating that he had no objections.

He really doesn't have much to go now, and there are people he offended everywhere, so when he goes out, he can't go out to meet with his enemies, go directly to the army to experience it, and build a military merit like Li Hongzhang, and then he will have the capital to confront his strong enemy head-on.

The matter was finalized like this, after the celebration banquet, the next day, Li Hongzhang took Qin Nan with a letter of recommendation and officially said goodbye to Lu Feng.

Lu Feng kept sending the three of them out of the city before returning to the governor's mansion.

The three of them rode their horses for a while, and suddenly, Lu You's graceful figure was also riding a horse, standing in the middle of the road and waiting, obviously waiting for a long time.

Seeing this, Qin Nan and the others smiled bitterly, and could only secretly say in their hearts that Lord Lu Feng, it was not easy to raise a daughter, and she was taken away casually.

Presumably, when Lu Feng returned to the governor's mansion, he lost his baby daughter Lu You, and he must have taken off his shoes and beat people in anger.

The four of them went on the road together, and most of the day they left the boundary of Qingyang Province, and then passed through the two hundred miles of mountains in one breath, heading towards the middle of the Yamato Kingdom, where the imperial city of the Yamato Kingdom is located, Tiandu.

And the place of recruitment is in Tiandu.

After leaving the 200-mile mountain, the four of them rested and fed the horses in a nearby town, and continued their journey the next day.

It took nearly twenty days to cross mountains, rivers, canyons, and plains along the way, all the way to the tiring journey, but finally arrived at the heavenly capital, the legendary imperial city.

The four of them went into the imperial city, intending to rest here for a few days.

Needless to say, Qin Nan and Li Hongzhang didn't need to be so troublesome, but Lu You and Gu Zhu were afraid that they couldn't stand it, and they kept riding horses all the way, which made them bumpy and tired.

Even Guzhu couldn't stand it a little.

After the four of them entered the city, they chose an inn to live in, where they had a good rest for a day and a night to recuperate their spirits.

After that, the four of them went to the recruitment site together, Xiangguo Temple.

Xiangguo Temple is a temple dedicated to the Great Buddha, and it is located on the outskirts of the city, where many dignitaries and nobles like to go to worship and pray for official luck.

This temple is different from the Big Buddha Temple, compared to the people, it is not so famous, and there are not so many warriors, it is an ordinary temple, but because of the light of the imperial city, there are many people who burn incense.

Every year around the imperial city to recruit soldiers, are here to register, of course, this year is no exception, after registering, go to burn incense on the way, pray for peace.

It's noon, and the sun is hot.

Qin Nan and the others handed over the letter of recommendation, signed up, and then prepared to follow the customs, and the group of four went straight to the temple to burn incense.

Originally, Qin Nan was extremely disdainful of this kind of temple stained with copper smell, especially when he saw Li Hongzhang's pious face, he wanted to laugh a little at the time, but he didn't say anything to stop it, but followed them.

In front of him was a long staircase, surrounded by pilgrims of all ages, including nobles in brocade robes and ordinary peasants, most of whom were women, who crossed a basket and looked extremely solemn.

Qin Nan and the four of them walked up the stairs, and at this time, he met a person he was familiar with.

Qin Zhen, the former genius of the Qin family on the first day, had the mad martial soul, the one who was defeated by Lin Feng with a sword above the Boyi City Martial Arts.
