This kind of operation not only tests the archer's eyesight and accuracy, but also his ability to predict the target's movement trajectory. It can only be achieved by top archers.
With such skills, how could he become a governor?
Could he be a deserter from the Black Feather Camp, running to Kishu to take someone else's position?
The more Xiao Nanhui thought about it, the more outrageous it seemed, and he looked Lu Songping up and down.
"You are a governor, what on earth does His Majesty want you to do here in the middle of the night?"
"Thanks to Lord Xiao, we caught the spy."
"A spy is not..."
Aren't you the spy?
She was too embarrassed to say the second half of the sentence.
This can't be blamed on her, this guy is really too suspicious.
Lu Songping glanced at her and effortlessly understood the second half of the woman's words. He said indifferently, "They say a soldier is like his man. Sir Xiao's sword is indeed powerful, but it's a pity that he can't bend."
Was he mocking her? That she couldn't think straight?
"Hmph, even if I can't turn, I can still fight you for three hundred rounds."
This is about what happened that night at Prince Kang’s palace.
Somehow, Lu Songping's expression gradually became a little strange. He stared at Xiao Nanhui's face for a moment, and seemed to suddenly understand something.
"The assault on Sanmu Pass was a sudden move by Your Majesty. The Jizhou garrison and the governor rushed here overnight, anxiously worrying about the marching route day and night, and were in a state of panic. Now I understand why this happened."
The other party's words seemed to have hidden meanings, and Xiao Nanhui was confused, but he did catch a key piece of information.
"When the Black Feather Battalion was at Sanmu Pass, were you also..."
The more she spoke, the harder it became. She really didn't want to ask the question she was afraid to hear the answer to.
However, Shikamatsuhira obviously knew what she was going to ask and raised his eyebrows meaningfully.
"At that time, Lord Xiao fought bravely, which made me, Lu, admire him very much."
He was there.
Thinking of how embarrassed he was at that time, Xiao Nanhui felt his forehead burning and a nerve in his forehead twitching.
"That's a temporary solution..."
However, Lu Songping didn't seem to care about her shattered self-esteem at all. He picked up the body of the night bat and turned to walk down the hillside.
"I have to hurry back to report. If Master Xiao still wants to stay here and enjoy the moon, I won't disturb you."
Someone was as light as a swallow, and before he could finish his sentence, his voice was already far away.
A cold wind blew past, and Xiao Nanhui sniffed, feeling as if he had been taken advantage of.
Or the kind that you kick away after using it.
******************
The time of one stick of incense will soon be up.
The tent was crowded again, and all the generals and ministers accompanying the army were eagerly awaiting a reply from the emperor so that they could quickly end this anxious meeting.
The emperor remained the same as he was a stick of incense before, without a trace of fatigue on his face. He seemed to be enjoying this tug-of-war and was not in a hurry to end it.
Just when everyone was about to give up and raised their hands in surrender, a burst of hurried footsteps was heard outside the tent.
Everyone's ears pricked up, wondering what would happen next.
After a brief announcement, Lu Songping appeared in the big tent, dressed in dust. He threw the things in his hand to the ground and bowed.
"Your Majesty, I, Shika Songping, greet you."
Wasn't Lu Songping supposed to not be attending this meeting? Why did he suddenly appear at this moment?
Everyone in the big tent looked straight ahead, and everyone's heart was looking sideways at Lu Songping.
There was no shortage of disdain and discontent among them, as many had previously held a low opinion of the young governor. Who knew if, after King Kang's death, he had made Jizhou his own?
"So you're the Governor of Luzhou. I granted you leave earlier, but why are you here again now?"
The emperor was obviously very lenient towards Lu Songping, which made the others feel dissatisfied again.
It turns out that they could have asked for leave. If I had known this, I would not have gotten involved in this mess. They were made to stand in the corner for a whole night for nothing.
"Your Majesty, I was hunting outside the military camp at night and unexpectedly killed something. I am reporting this to Your Majesty."
After Lu Songping finished speaking, he spread out the black thing on the ground. There was blood mixed with a few tufts of wet black hair. It was actually a dead bat.
The military officers in the account all sneered, and the civil officials all gasped.
"Is the Luzhou governor confused by the cold wind? We are currently discussing important military matters with His Majesty. How can we have the time to bother with your useless black-haired beast?"
"How can such filthy and bloody things be presented before Your Majesty? Wouldn't it be a disgrace to Your Majesty's eyes?"
There was a constant sound of cursing in the big tent. Everyone vented all the anger that had been pent up in their hearts all night on Lu Songping, and they almost forgot that the emperor was present.
Lu Songping was quite calm. He simply looked at the person sitting there and said, "I came here because I found something on this beast."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was another moment of suspicious silence in the account.
Seeing this, Yan Guang stepped forward and said, "I would like to take a look for Your Majesty."
The emperor waved his hand, and Yan Guang began to fiddle with the night bat.
In just a moment, he realized the problem and a look of hesitation appeared on his face.
Lu Songping watched from the side, remaining calm.
"Why is the general silent? But what was found about the beast?"
"Your Majesty...Your Majesty discovered this."
Yan Guang held the strip of cloth he had just removed in his hand and raised it above his head.
There was a rustling sound inside the tent, and everyone took half a step forward at the same time.
