When the generals behind Ni Huang saw that Fang Tianqiang had been defeated and that they were all comrades, they hurriedly rushed towards Fang Tianqiang, who had fallen to the ground, to check if he was injured.
Moreover, they no longer dared to underestimate Lin Shu. Although the Fang Tian Spear was not the most powerful weapon in the army, it was still ranked in the top 20 of the Yunnan Army. However, Lin Shu had beaten him up like a child. No one in the army could do that, especially the killing intent on Lin Shu's body. They could feel the killing intent accumulated from the battlefield. Therefore, they now respected Lin Shu for having such ability at such a young age.
In the army, the strong were respected. Now that Lin Shu had shown such ability and was here to help them, they would not complain. They only respected him.
Lin Shu saw that the generals were checking the wounds on the Fang Tian Spear, so he said,""He's fine. I used the sword body, not the blade. He'll be fine after a while.”
Ni Huang walked to Lin Shu's side and said,"Elder brother, you are very capable. My subordinates have not improved, and I have made a fool of myself.”
Lin Shu smiled and looked at Ni Huang,"It's fine. It's just a spar. I hope General Fang won't hold a grudge.”
Fang Tian Long had already recovered. He knew that Lin Shu had been merciful, so he wasn't injured. His hand was just a little numb.
After hearing Lin Shu's words, he gritted his teeth, stood up, and walked toward Lin Shu aggressively.
Ni Huang thought that Fang Tian Long was still looking for trouble and wanted to teach him a lesson.
However, it was blocked by Lin Shu. Lin Shu only smiled and looked at the incoming Fang Tian Spear.
Fang Tian Long walked in front of Lin Shu, sized her up, and then unexpectedly knelt down in front of her.
Fang Tianqiang said with some shame," Thank you for your mercy, Young Master Mei. I, Fang Tianqiang, was arrogant earlier and offended Young Master Mei. Please forgive Fang Tianqiang's rudeness on account that I'm a boor. Finally, I thank Young Master Mei for coming to help. I hope that you won't hold it against our border guards because of Fang Tianqiang's unreasonable behavior."”
Fang Tianlong then knelt down and cupped his hands at Princess Nihuang,"Princess, please punish Fang Tianqiang for his impoliteness. No matter what, Fang Tianqiang will definitely accept the punishment.”
Lin Shu and Ni Huang looked at Fang Tian Long in surprise. They didn't expect him to be such an upright man, just that his temper was a little straightforward.
General Zhangsun, who was standing beside Ni Huang, saw that Ni Huang did not say anything. He immediately pointed at the ancient spear on the ground and said to Ni Huang angrily,"Princess, the Fang Tian Spear was really rude just now. Please punish me.”
Lin Shu also reacted at this time. He couldn't be punished. Otherwise, he would have shown his skills in vain. If Fang Tianqiang was punished because of Lin Shu, although it was his fault, the other soldiers would inevitably blame Lin Shu, an outsider, because of their comrade-in-arms relationship.
Therefore, Lin Shu immediately said to Zhangsun,"This general is too serious. It's just a small spar, and General Fang has apologized.”
He held up the Fang Tian Spear and said," General Fang, please get up. This is just a small matter. Besides, I'm fine. General Fang, please don't blame me for attacking you just now. Please forgive me."”
Fang Tianqiang looked at the magnanimous Lin Shu and said,"How can I blame Young Master Mei? It's all because I, Fang Tianqiang, overestimated myself and offended Young Master.”
Lin Shu smiled as she shook her head and said to Ni Huang,"Princess, let's end this matter here. Don't just stand here. I want to pay my respects to Uncle Mu.”
Ni Huang smiled and said," Mm, alright. Let him go this time. Also, don't call me princess. Just call me sister Ni Huang like before. It sounds intimate."”
Lin Shu shook her head and said with a smile,"Then I'll call you Ni Huang. You're a big girl now, you can't call me Ni Huang like you did when you were young.”
Ni Huang could only nod and say,"Alright then. Brother, this way please. I'll bring you to father's mourning hall.”
Ni Huang did not dare to be too intimate with Lin Shu in front of everyone. She simply extended her hand to lead the way and walked side by side with Lin Shu.
General Zhangsun and the other generals looked at Lin Shu's back in admiration. They didn't expect Lin Shu to be so magnanimous and plead for the Fang Tian Spear. Moreover, it seemed that she had a very good relationship with the princess.
These generals couldn't help but respect Lin Shu a lot more, and they looked at Lin Shu with more enthusiasm.
Lin Shu smiled to herself. It seemed like they had a good start.
Hence, the group of people followed Lin Shu and Ni Huang to the residence where Lord Yun Nan's mourning hall was located. Lin Shu only realized that all the houses in the city had white cloths hanging in front of their doors to mourn for Lord Yun Nan when they entered the pass during the day.
Moreover, the soldiers in Qing Ming Pass were all wearing mourning clothes to mourn for Lord Yun Nan. The city was filled with a sad atmosphere.
Lin Shu was also affected. Her expression turned serious and she stopped talking to Ni Huang. Everyone walked in silence.
Soon, they arrived at the mourning hall. Lin Shu began to worship Lord Yun Nan Mu Shen's memorial tablet. She didn't say anything. She had said everything she wanted to say last night. However, Lin Shu was very well-behaved during the worship. She carefully burned incense and knelt to one side.
After paying his respects to Lord Yun Nan Mu Shen, Lin Shu asked Ni Huang to bring him around Qing Ming Pass. Several generals followed him.
Ni Huang brought Lin Shu around the pass and began to look around carefully. They wanted to understand the current defenses. After Lin Shu saw many areas, she even pointed out to Ni Huang the inadequacies and the methods that needed to be improved. Along the way, Lin Shu pointed out many areas. Moreover, her explanation was reasonable and convincing.
Ni Huang immediately sent people to improve and defend the place. This made the generals who followed Lin Shu admire him even more. He could see so many loopholes in the defense after just one round. Moreover, he explained it clearly. The generals then realized that Mei Changsu was not only powerful in martial arts, but also had more military knowledge.
After spending the entire afternoon, the generals who came back no longer addressed Lin Shu as Young Master Mei, but as Mister Mei.
A capable person, no matter where he went, would always be able to quickly gain the recognition and trust of the people around him. Then, they would start to worship him and slowly listen to him.
Lin Shu had only used a day to make these generals trust him. Moreover, they had already begun to worship him. He believed that they would slowly take the initiative to listen to his orders.

I'm not a full-time writer, and I still have my own job. But I said I'd explode today, so I did. I started writing after work yesterday. After writing for the entire night, I couldn't hold it in any longer. After a short break, I had to go back to work. My head was in a daze. This chapter was scheduled to be published in the morning, so I wouldn't leave any manuscripts today. I'd just post as much as I wrote. I only liked two chapters a few days ago, so I really didn't have many manuscripts.
