In the Lu Manor of Nan Ning City, Madam Tan had received news of Lu Guang's return and arranged for servants to clean the courtyard early in the morning.
Madam Tan held Yu He's wrist and said softly,"I heard from the old marshal yesterday that Guang 'er will return to the Independent Regiment today. When Guang 'er returns, I'll arrange your marriage. What do you think?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Tan Shi's beautiful eyes stared at Yu He.
He saw that Yu He was a little inexperienced, and her cheeks were red, adding a different kind of beauty.
In the evening, Lu Guang returned to the marshal's manor.
The marshal's residence was brightly lit. Lu Rongting took this opportunity to invite the elders of the Gui Faction. Lu Yuguang and Lu Yuxun also arrived at the marshal's manor tonight. The three brothers had not seen each other for a while.
"Dad, Mom, Eldest Brother, Second Brother, I'm back.”Lu Guang said in a deep voice as he looked at everyone present. "Greetings, uncles."
"My son isn't bad, he's a talented general. In the future, the Gui Branch will be handed over to the three of you brothers, and we elders will be at ease.”Lu Rongting praised. His joy and pride were self-evident.
"I'll listen to you. I'll do whatever I want.”
"Younger brother, you fought this battle beautifully. Even big brother couldn't do what you did back then.”Lu Yuguang said emotionally. He was sincerely happy for Lu Guang and did not have any intention of fighting for it.
Similarly, Lu Yuxun was the same. They didn't have much pursuit of power. It could even be said that in their eyes, the friendship between brothers was more important than anything else.
This was also why when they found out that Lu Guang was injured in Nan Ning City, they almost turned Guangdong and Guangxi upside down.
Lu Guang and the other two sat on the left side of Lu Rongting. The four of them took up half of the seats, while the other four were the elders of the Gui Faction. Although he wasn't involved in the military's management, he still held an important position in the Gui Faction.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Lu Rongting looked around at the few people present and said softly,"In this battle, Lu Guangdang made the first contribution. He defended the western front with a group of soldiers and bought time for the eastern front. In addition, the Dian Base Army wanted Lu Guang to be the commander-in-chief. The complete unification of the four provinces in the southwest was all thanks to Lu Guang!”
"That's right. Lu Guang should be the first to take credit for this battle.”
"The four southwestern provinces have finally been unified. Marshal, you should reward him well."
The elders of the Gui Faction reconsidered, their hearts filled with approval. They had been waiting for this day for a long time.
"However, Lu Guang is still a member of the Gui Faction. I have discussed with Cai E and intend to elect Lu Guang as the commander-in-chief of the four provinces of the southwest.”Lu Rongting finally voiced out his thoughts. He had already considered this matter for a long time. Yesterday, he had discussed with Cai E to promote Lu Guang as the number one person in the southwest.
This shocked Lu Guang. He looked at Lu Rongting in shock and said,"Dad, this is a serious matter. I'm not capable enough. Besides,"
Before Lu Guang could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Lu Rongting. "Guang 'er, I know what you want to say. I'm already old. Logically speaking, I should have retired a long time ago and enjoyed my old age. In the future, your uncles and I will support you. Your two brothers will also assist you. Although you lack experience, you still need to grow up. I've already decided, so don't decline.”
Although the elders of the Gui Faction were a little surprised, they calmed down after a while.
"Lu Guang, you brat, don't refuse. In the future, we old bones will lend you a helping hand. I believe that in Guangdong and Guangxi, no one will dare to say no.”
"Don't worry. We'll support you. In the southwest, you can come boldly.”
Hearing this, Lu Guang felt inexplicably touched.
Although Lu Yuguang and Lu Yuxun didn't say anything, they would support Lu Guang without hesitation.
"It's decided then. Tomorrow, the Supreme Military Conference of Guangdong and Guangxi will announce your appointment. When Beiping releases your appointment, you will become the King of the Southwest.”
......
"Ah, looks like I can't drink like this in the future.”Lu Guangxin opened his eyes and saw an alluring face.
