Looking at the silent Li Xin, Qi Lun nodded.
Li Xin, who was only a child in many mansions in the Divine Capital, was not excited when he saw so many princes expressing their goodwill. Instead, he was thinking.
Just this point alone had already surpassed the descendants of those noble houses.
"What are you thinking about?" Qi Lun asked.
Li Xin raised his head and looked at Qi Lun. He smiled and asked,""Lord Marquis, what do you think a letter should be?”
"Hahaha…"
Qi Lun, who was standing in front with his hands behind his back, laughed loudly.
" You want to ask," Qi Lun said after laughing," whose gift do I want you to accept?" Or rather, who am I standing behind?”
Li Xin didn't say anything, but it could be considered as a tacit agreement.
Li Xin, who had been in the Divine Capital for more than ten years, although he kept a low profile and rarely appeared in front of the public, it was not that he did not know what was going on.
As a military marquis residence, Marquis Calm Sea's residence held a high position and authority, so he was able to obtain a lot of information.
As far as Li Xin knew, this Northguard Marquis had a sister who was a concubine in the palace, and her status was quite high.
It was just that he did not know which prince or princess 'mother she was.
Qi Lun also understood that as the young master of Marquis Sea Seal Estate, Li Xin, who was not famous because he was stupid and incompetent, definitely knew something.
Therefore, he also guessed the question that Li Xin wanted to ask.
"This marquis has a younger sister who is a concubine in the palace, but now she only has one daughter.”
Qi Lun answered Li Xin's question and also told Li Xin that he had nothing to do with these people.
Of course, he could only believe 50 - 60% of what he said. It would be unwise to believe everything.
Who knew if this Great Marquisdom, who controlled hundreds of thousands of border troops in the northern borders, had contacted someone in private?
In any case, Li Xin could see that none of these people who could sit in the upper echelons of the military were easy to deal with.
If he really believed the nonsense of these people who were not good at politics and were boorish martial artists, he might be sold and still help them count their money.
"Lord Marquis, this one will accept these gifts.”After thinking for a while, Li Xin decided to accept them all.
"Oh? Accept them all?" Qilun asked.
"Yes, take them all. Lord Marquis, please write a letter to the princes on behalf of this general. On behalf of the three thousand soldiers who died in North Wind City, as well as the soldiers under this general who will be stationed in North Wind City, thank the princes for their sincerity.”
"High!"
Hearing Li Xin's answer, Qi Lun couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
In one sentence, the valuable gifts sent by the Crown Prince and the other princes were turned into the intention of these princes to support the construction of the border town.
He accepted the gift, but it was not for himself, but for the entire North Wind City.
Even if someone dug up these old scores later, he was not afraid. Moreover, the one who replied was the Northern Battlefront Marquis, and it had nothing to do with Li Xin.
Northern Battlefront Marquis understood this little trick.
But he could not refuse.
Because he was the one who accepted the gift. Now, the matter of replying to the letter should naturally be handled by the Northguard Marquis.
If it was any other general, he might not have dared to say so.
But Li Xin, regardless of his identity as the young master of Marquis Sea Seal's estate or the current general of North Wind City, dared to do so. Moreover, after these few battles, Li Xin had gained a lot of prestige in the Youzhou border army in just half a month.
"Hahaha, if other generals dared to say that, I would definitely make things difficult for them. But for you, this won't happen again. The next time someone comes to trouble me, I will push them to your North Wind City.”
"Many thanks, Lord Marquis!"
" Thank you." Li Xin thanked Qi Lun respectfully when he heard Qi Lun's joking words.
Speaking of which, he had schemed against Qilun, but he was magnanimous, so it was only right for him to thank him.
"Get lost!"
"I will take my leave!"
Then, Li Xin left the main hall, and the guard of the Northern Battlefront Marquis who had just brought the tray in picked up the tray again and followed behind him.
"Oh, right."
Just as Li Xing walked out of the main hall, Qi Lun's voice sounded again,""You have an army of ten thousand soldiers. You have to go to the various guards as soon as possible to choose. Otherwise, those fellows might renege on their debts.”
“…….”Li Xin was stunned for a moment, but he immediately reacted. It was really possible.
Perhaps some of these guys 'enthusiasm just now was to build a good relationship with him and say some beautiful words to let him have mercy when choosing soldiers.
"Thank you for your reminder, Lord Marquis.”
After leaving the main hall, Liu Hu and the others took the tray from the soldiers and put the things in the Sumeru bag or purse on it. They followed Li Xin and left the General's Mansion.
"Lord Jue, where are we going?"
Liu Hu asked after leaving the General's Mansion.
The way he addressed her had also changed from Young Master to Lord Jue.
"Let's go back to the barracks first!"
"Here!"
With that, the eleven riders mounted their horses and galloped towards the west gate.
"General Li."
Just as they left the west gate, Li Xin and his group met Lu Pojun.
"Greetings, General!" Seeing Lu Pojun and his personal guards waiting here, Li Xin hurriedly greeted them.
"Hahaha, let's go together. There was no hurry. It was only ten miles to the left and right.”Lu Pojun laughed.
"Here, I will listen to you, General."
Following beside Li Xin, Lu Pojun started to chat with Li Xin.
After walking a few miles, seeing that the other party didn't talk about the main topic, Li Xin said,"General, are you here to challenge the soldiers?”
"Yes and no."
"Oh?" Li Xin was puzzled.
"Your original troops will definitely follow you. In addition, my Gale Guards will give you another three thousand elite soldiers for you to choose from.”
"Ah?" Li Xin was shocked as he looked at Lu Pojun.
The Whole Wind Guards were all elite soldiers. Adding on Li Xin's original 1000 subordinates, giving another 3000 was equivalent to taking away 4000 troops from the Whole Wind Guards.
This was not a small sum.
But Lu Pojun gave it to him directly, how could Li Xin not be shocked?
"Hehe, are you scared?" Lu Pojun smiled and said," However, you can't take away those who are above a hundred generals. Of course, you can take away those who are above one division."”
"In addition, I have another condition.”
"General, please speak." Li Xin didn't agree, but he didn't refuse either.
"Lieutenant Ling Fang, he has recovered and returned to camp. Let him go with you.”
“…….”After hearing this, Li Xin became silent, but he didn't ask why.
After a while, he said,"Yes, but General, I have two conditions."”
"Tell me!" Seeing Li Xin agree, Lu Pojun smiled and said generously.
"First, I want Yang Feng and Hua Ling from the 1st Battalion, as well as the people from the 3rd and 2nd squads.”
"Alright, they can give it to you!" Lu Pojun agreed without thinking.
"The second condition is that I want to transfer Lieutenant Luo Tong and Lieutenant Wang He into my troops.”
“…….”Lu Pojun was stunned. Then, he remembered who the two people were. He frowned and asked,""Are you sure you want them?"
"Yes, Luo Tong and Wang He are both loyal people. When they saw me in the medical camp, they also wanted to fight for a future with me.”
"In that case, this general also has the beauty of helping others.”
"Alright then. Since you're quite the Bole, there's no harm in handing them over to you. However, you have to consider carefully behind these two people.”After saying this, Lu Pojun could be considered to be completely honest with Li Xin.
"Thank you for your advice, General.”Li Xin thanked him solemnly.
"Alright, it's good that you know what you're doing." Lu Pojun nodded and then smiled,""You don't have to do this. You came from my Gale Guard, and our relationship has always been there.”
"This general has a subordinate like you. If word gets out, it will also be a glory.”
“…….”
After talking for a while, the group returned to the West Camp, entered the Yuan Gate, and headed straight for the Gale Guard Camp.
