I'm the one running the game

The ruffians were caught by Song Erlang Song Can, and they were tied up and thrown into a corner.

Lu Xingshi looked at Song Zhi, and then at Song Can. They were both medicinal herbs, so how could one be big and the other small? All the nutrients were given to Song Can, right?

"Thank you, Brother Lu, for saving my brother." Song Can was still frightened after hearing the introduction. He didn't expect that a big insect would appear in Laiyan Town after he left home for so many years.

Lu Xingshi could see that Song Can was quite powerful, especially with his horizontal training and excellent innate bones, which made him no different from Tian Jian, the fierce tiger in the army.

Now it seems that coming to Laiyan Town not only gave him a magic weapon, but also a fierce general.

No, perhaps the fierce general is the real opportunity, and the magic weapon may just be a bonus.

"It is right to help when you see injustice on the road." After Lu Xingshi finished speaking, he asked about Song Can's situation.

He has been hanging around in Kyoto these years, hoping to get a job, but Dasong previously valued civil servants over military service, so he has never had a way.

Joining the army is even worse, as he has a family. Once he joins the army, his family will become a military household and be implicated, and it will be difficult for his nephew to pass the imperial examination in the future, although his nephew has not yet done so.

But it is better to take precautions.

Therefore, he wants to join a civil servant and get a good job.

Unfortunately, Dasong's behavior has become more and more absurd, and his idea of ​​being loyal to the emperor and the country has almost been worn out, so he can only come back in the end.

"Why not join the King of Yan?" Lu Xingshi asked tentatively.

Song Can hesitated when he heard this: "The King of Yan is not orthodox after all. If we go to him, we will inevitably be implicated if something happens in the future."

"The court of Dasong was previously in chaos due to treacherous officials, and now there are women who are causing chaos. All it takes is a royal relative to set things right, and the court will be clear."

Compared to the more rebellious King of Yan, Song Can naturally prefers the Dasong court, after all, he has lived in Dasong for so many years.

"Oh? Are you planning to support the Western Qin Emperor who is far away in the Western Regions? He has a succession edict, the support of the Palace Master of Huangjue Palace, and he is also a prince."

"He is a first-class figure in both civil and military talents, and he does have investment potential." When Lu Xingshi heard this, the only candidate was the Western Qin Emperor.

"I have thought about it, but the Western Regions are far away, and His Majesty the Emperor of Xiqin... Song is indeed orthodox. If I go to him, I am afraid I will never see my elder brother and sister-in-law again in this life." Song Can also agreed with Lu Xingshi's statement, but he could also see that it might not be so easy for the Western Qin Emperor to regain the world.

It is even possible that he will never be able to fight back to the Central Plains in his lifetime, and if he really joins them, he will never see his elder brother and sister-in-law again in this life.

Although Emperor Pingyang has been criticized for not conforming to the mainstream, his position is stable and he has also taken over the entire Central Plains. It is not so easy for the Western Qin Emperor to come back.

It is more likely that Dasong will be divided into two.

"It seems that Song Erlang is not going to join any side." Lu Xingshi said the other party's true thoughts.

"Not really, when I came back from Kyoto, I met a nobleman who appreciated me and invited me to his mansion to do business."

"After I come back to see my elder brother and sister-in-law, I will go in a few days."

"When I stand firm, I will come back to pick up my elder brother and sister-in-law." Song Shen did not hide much. Lu Xingshi was his elder brother's lifesaver. There was nothing he couldn't say. Moreover, this was not a crime, so it was normal to say it openly.

Lu Xingshi narrowed his eyes. He could recruit Song Shen. Wouldn't he be another person with the fate of an emperor?

After the recovery of heaven and earth, Lu Xingshi also noticed that more and more people who inherited the martial arts of the emperor's fate began to appear.

It may also be because Dasong is about to enter the end, so dragons and snakes from all over the country are rising and starting to fight for the world.

"Congratulations to Song Dalang, you don't have to live a life of collecting herbs in the mountains in the future." Lu Xingshi was thinking about how to pull Song Can to the camp of King Yan.

Meeting him means there is still a chance to intercept.

"I don't know who this noble man is?" Lu Xingshi asked tentatively.

"He is the eldest son of the Zhou family in Hejian. People in the world give him the nickname of Gentleman Sword. He is a first-class gentleman."

"He treats people like spring breeze. Even for a crude man like me, Mr. Zhou is polite and respectful."

"That's why I plan to join him and become a stick coach." Song Can drank two sips of wine and opened his mouth all of a sudden.

Song Zhi became a foil, listening to Song Can's words with Lu Xingshi on the side.

Lu Xingshi did not know the Zhou family of Hejian and the young master of the Gentleman Sword. They were at different levels. The Gentleman Sword was at most a young hero of the younger generation.

However, everyone Lu Xingshi came into contact with had to be a master at the very least. If he was lower, he would not be qualified to contact him.

"Looking at his character and reputation, he is indeed a well-known and virtuous person." Lu Xingshi did not think that the other party was a hypocrite. Perhaps the things he did were to win people's hearts, but if he really implemented the benefits and did things in a practical way, then he was a gentleman.

When doing good deeds, it is natural to judge by deeds rather than by heart. Otherwise, no matter how good the words are, without any actual actions, it is just empty.

"The reputation of Mr. Zhou is vaguely close to that of King Yan Lu Xingshi in the martial arts world, but his status in the martial arts world is slightly inferior." Song Can was also considered a half-man of the martial arts world, so he knew a lot.

"Hey, the name of this King of Yan is the same as yours." Song Zhi was also a little surprised.

Of course, he didn't know what King Yan's name was, he just knew he was King Yan.

Song Can's voice couldn't help but pause, and then he looked at Lu Xingshi. Before, he only knew that Lu Xingshi's surname was Lu, but now he looked again, it seemed a little wrong.

"It is rumored that King Yan is the best master in the world. He defeated King Liao and King Qi, and the two emperors of Pingyang and Western Qin avoided him and dared not fight him. He is an enemy of ten thousand people." Song Can looked at Lu Xingshi, and at this moment he realized that he couldn't see through Lu Xingshi.

"It's said to be a rumor, it's not credible." Lu Xingshi replied with a smile.

Song Zhi also found that the atmosphere was wrong.

"Could it be that you are really King Yan, Mr. Lu?" Song Zhi widened his eyes and asked in disbelief.

"Yes, it's me." Lu Xingshi admitted it openly.

The atmosphere froze in an instant, and the hooligans tied to the side were about to cry. How could you be so powerful without any pomp and circumstance? Why are you playing low-key?

"Actually, they all praised me. I usually don't care about anything. I just run around everywhere."

"They say I am the King of Yan, but in fact most of the credit belongs to others. I just gave him a title." Lu Xingshi is not greedy for credit. Fame and power are like clouds to him.

"So His Royal Highness the King of Yan was going to recruit me just now?" Song Can didn't even say "I" and used "I" directly.

"That's not the case. I just asked as usual. I don't care about anything." Lu Xingshi spread his hands, indicating that you can go to whoever you want to go to.

This made Song Can entangled. The other party did have the idea of ​​recruiting him, but he just respected his decision.

On one side is his eldest brother's lifesaver, and on the other side is the young master of the Zhou family who appreciates him. This makes Song Can very embarrassed.

If Lu Xingshi didn't have such a relationship, Song Can would never think of going to Lu Xingshi. This can also be regarded as repaying a favor.

"Erlang, how does the young master of Zhou treat you?" Song Zhi spoke.

"I treat you like a distinguished guest." Song Can told the truth.

"That's great. What are you hesitating about? It doesn't matter where you work. The treatment in Hejian will definitely be better." Lu Xingshi said with a smile.

He was not so narrow-minded that he would kill the other party's whole family if the other party did not surrender to him. However, after they parted ways, he would not show any mercy when they met next time. He would still kill them if they should be killed.

"If you come to my side, even if you have my recommendation, you can only start as a junior officer and accumulate military merits little by little to get promoted."

"You will be a stick coach in Zhou's Hejian, and your status must be high."

"Besides, Hejian is stable and located in the heart of the Dasong court. If nothing unexpected happens, there will be no war in recent years." Lu Xingshi also analyzed the pros and cons for him.

The more Song Can listened, the more he felt that Zhou's Hejian was a good place to go, but when he looked at Song Zhi again, the other party seemed to be in deep thought.

If it were Song Zhi, she would definitely want her brother to surrender to Lu Xingshi.

Let's not talk about other things. Although he was a junior officer, he was an official anyway. He also knew that his younger brother was brave. With the presence of the King of Yan, his promotion speed would be fast. Moreover, he was close to home, so he didn't have to worry about not being able to take care of him if he was far away.

There are also disadvantages, that is, danger.

Song Can must have fought in the army, and there are always deaths in wars.

As for the issue of military households, there is no need to worry about this. The military households are the military households of Dasong. They have surrendered to Dayan. The military households of Dayan are not a burden, but a good treatment.

"My elder brother is my father. What do you think?" Song Can could only ask Song Zhi. It was really difficult to choose.

"If Erlang wants to go to Hejian, he can go to Hejian and serve His Royal Highness the King of Yan."

"His Royal Highness the King of Yan is generous. He can even give you advice on your surrender to the Western Qin Emperor. He will definitely not embarrass me and your sister-in-law." Song Zhi spoke out her thoughts.

"Yes, no matter who you surrender to, you are just one person and can't have much impact on the overall situation." Lu Xingshi echoed.

Song Can suddenly felt uneasy when he heard this.

Now they are not enemies, then it must be fine. If they are enemies when the Yan King's army sweeps across the world in the future...

"There is no rush for this matter. I am returning to my hometown to visit my elder brother and sister-in-law. I am not really going to surrender to anyone. At most, I will go to the mountains with my elder brother to collect herbs in the town." Song Can had no choice but to delay it and talk about it later.

"It's a pity to go home to collect herbs. You can surrender to the Zhou family in Hejian and surrender when I attack you."

"This is called not disappointing the Tathagata and not disappointing you." Lu Xingshi said this as if jokingly.
