evening.
After finishing his meal, Lu Yongcheng went to the governor's mansion.
Lin Yuanlong was practicing calligraphy in his study when he was summoned there.
"Old Lu, what brings you here so late?" Lin Yuanlong asked calmly.
Lu Yongcheng bowed slightly and glanced around. "General, I have a confidential report to give you!"
"A secret report?" Lin Yuanlong frowned, then smiled and said, "There are no outsiders in this room, so feel free to speak your mind!"
Lu Yongcheng nodded, then stepped forward and said, "General, I suspect that the Second Young Master is plotting a rebellion!"
"Hmm?" Lin Yuanlong's eyebrows shot up instantly.
Uncle Fu, standing nearby, was startled and quickly said, "General Lu, treason is a serious crime. You can't say such things carelessly!"
Lu Yongcheng quickly said, "General, according to military law, no one except the commander-in-chief has the authority to mobilize the garrison!"
"Just a few days ago, the second young master took it upon himself to mobilize the guard battalion and wipe out the Liu family. This time, he has ordered the guard battalion to surround the courtroom..."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Before Lu Yongcheng could finish speaking, Lin Yuanlong suddenly burst into laughter.
This laugh left Lu Yongcheng speechless. "General, you..."
"Come, come, Lao Lu, sit down!" Lin Yuanlong quickly put down his pen, pulled Lu Yongcheng to sit down, poured him tea, and asked with great interest, "What did you just say? Yu'er is going to rebel?"
Lin Yuanlong slapped his thigh hard. "Damn it! I've been waiting for this day for ages! Old Lu, our son's really something! He actually knows how to rebel! Good for him! Better than his father, he's got guts!!"
Lu Yongcheng: "..."
"Old Lu, tell me quickly, how far has he progressed?" Lin Yuanlong asked with a curious look.
"Um, well, it's not clear yet..."
Lin Yuanlong continued, "Then, does he have enough troops? How about this, let's just give him the garrison battalion! Let Feng Shiyi and the others go and surrender to him!"
At this point, Lin Yuanlong hurriedly instructed Uncle Fu, "Uncle Fu, you should also withdraw the guards from the Marshal's Mansion. When Yu'er arrives, no one should stop him. Also, prepare a rope so you can tie me up and bring me to Yu'er!"
Uncle Fu said with a smile, "Yes, Commander. Don't worry, I'll make sure everything is arranged perfectly for you!"
Lu Yongcheng stared blankly at Lin Yuanlong.
What's going on?
Your son is going to rebel, and you're actually this happy?
This is not what he expected.
He originally thought that Lin Yuanlong would be furious when he found out that Lin Yu was going to rebel.
But it didn't happen.
Instead, he wanted to fully support his son's rebellion?
"General, you..." Lu Yongcheng looked completely bewildered.
At this moment, the smile on Lin Yuanlong's face slowly faded, and he became extremely serious.
“Old Lu, we’re brothers who’ve sworn brotherhood, we’re bound by life and death, but this time, you’ve disappointed me…” Lin Yuanlong sighed softly.
Lu Yongcheng's body suddenly stiffened. "General, what do you mean by that?"
Lin Yuanlong sneered, saying meaningfully, "Did Wu Xueqin come to see you during the day? Did she send you to speak to me and falsely accuse Yu'er of rebellion?"
Lu Yongcheng's eyes widened instantly, and he immediately knelt on the ground, his body trembling like a leaf. He hurriedly explained, "General, this, this is a complete misunderstanding! I only heard Madam mention this matter occasionally. As the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Regiment, I have the duty to protect Fengtian. I, I am also worried about the General's safety!"
"Oh? Is that so?" Lin Yuanlong sneered. "Then what about that 5 billion in your offshore account?"
boom!
Lu Yongcheng collapsed to the ground, his face instantly turning ashen.
At this moment, he finally understood that everything was under Lin Yuanlong's control.
He looked up, staring blankly at Lin Yuanlong: "General..."
Lin Yuanlong waved his hand, "Old Lu, out of consideration for our brotherhood, I've always given you face. Based on your contributions, as long as it's not too outrageous, I'll turn a blind eye. But you shouldn't have gone against Yu'er!"
"The Feng family can live without me, Lin Yuanlong, but it cannot live without my son, Lin Yu!"
"In the future, he must be the one to carry the banner of the Fengtian Army!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yongcheng was completely dumbfounded.
He simply couldn't understand why Lin Yuanlong valued this youngest son so much!
Could it be that Lin Yu has some even bigger background?
Is their background even more powerful than the Wu family's?
How is that possible?
Lin Yuanlong shook his head. He naturally wouldn't reveal Lin Yu's identity to Lu Yongcheng.
"Old Lu, I won't kill you! But you'll lose your command!" Lin Yuanlong turned around and said coldly, "You'll be demoted three ranks, your salary halved, and you'll never have a chance for promotion again!"
"This is the last bit of dignity I'm leaving you!"
After Lin Yuanlong finished speaking, he stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked out of the study.
Lu Yongcheng's tiger-like eyes trembled as he slammed his head to the ground, "Thank you, Commander, for sparing my life!"
At this moment, he felt nothing but regret.
...
The next day.
Big news has come from the military governor's office.
Lu Yongcheng, the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Army, was removed from his post and demoted to regimental commander.
Downgraded by three levels!
The military and civilian communities were in an uproar.
For an ordinary person to reach Lu Yongcheng's position, it would probably take decades, or even risk their life!
Unexpectedly, General Lu, who was once so powerful and influential, fell from grace overnight.
At the same time, the military governor's office released another announcement.
The warlord's second son has now returned to Fengtian.
