It's better to be an empress than a county magistrate

They never thought that Lu Xingchen was a woman.

The most crucial thing is that they cannot overlap Lu Xingchen, who killed the Qiang general, smashed the Qiang attack, and destroyed the Qiang camp, with this beautiful woman at this time.

"Master Kang, the celebration banquet will continue tonight."

"You can't put all your eyes on me."

Prefect Kang coughed twice and said, "Okay, Master Lu is back, let's continue the banquet."

Lu Xingchen sat in his seat with a calm expression.

However, the lively scene just now was no longer in the lobby.

No matter whether they are officials or soldiers, all men would tell dirty jokes after drinking too much.

But with Lu Xingchen standing here, how could they still talk about those dirty things?

What's more, Magistrate Kang kept glancing at Lu Xingchen from time to time.

"Sir Kang, please remember to write a letter of recommendation to His Majesty on my behalf." Lu Xingchen picked up a glass of wine and said to Prefect Kang.

"Of course, Lord Lu, don't worry. You have defeated the Qiang's attack and saved Jizhou." Prefect Kang assured, patting his chest.

"You are not only a meritorious official of Jizhou, but also a meritorious official of Daliang."

"Then I'll drink first as a sign of respect." Lu Xingchen picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Prefect Kang was stunned.

When Lu Xingchen was dressed as a man, he just thought she was slim and good-looking.

But he never expected that Lu Xingchen was a woman.

It looks so beautiful now.

The slender white neck, delicate fingers, every movement is graceful and neat.

This was completely incomparable to the vulgar people in his room.

Lu Xingchen let Governor Kang look at him with an indifferent expression.

The day she was about to change back into her daughter's clothes, she had anticipated this outcome.

The last time she joined a special organization, many people found it incomprehensible.

What they don’t understand the most is that you are a woman.

She feels that the physiological structure formed in the process of human evolution that determines the differences between men and women is acceptable to her, and she does not agree with the labels attached to men and women by other societies.

Since it is already expected, why bother about it? Just accept it calmly.

"Lord Kang, I am tired after a day of fighting. I will go back and rest early. You continue."

After Lu Xingchen finished speaking, he stood up, drank a glass of wine with several other officials, and then retreated.

Ling Xiao stood at the door waiting for her to come out.

But the moment she came out, his eyes avoided her.

After returning to his residence, Lu Xingchen called Ling Xiao over.

"What's wrong with you? You look so awkward." Lu Xingchen asked.

Ling Xiao's cheeks suddenly turned red.

"That...Miss..."

Ling Xiao almost bit his lips as he said these two words.

"Don't call me Miss, it sounds bad. Call me girl." Lu Xingchen said.

"Ah, girl..." Ling Xiao was a little at a loss.

"I'm still the same person as before, just wearing girls' clothes again." Lu Xingchen said.

"You are still my brother and my chief of guard."

"Unless you don't want to be my brother and my chief of guard."

Ling Xiao never thought that Lu Xingchen was a woman.

But now she put on women's clothes again and became a woman, and such a beautiful woman.

He really doesn't want to be a brother anymore.

I wonder what it would feel like if my former brother became my wife?

This thought frightened Ling Xiao so much that his heart beat irregularly.

His cheeks were so red that they looked like they could bleed if pinched.

"Girl, go to bed early. I, I'm going out first."

Ling Xiao was so panicked that he bumped into the door frame on his way out.

"Look at how useless he is." Feixue had a speechless expression.

She said as she helped Lu Xingchen make the bedding.

"Well, they all need some time to adapt." Lu Xingchen said indifferently.

Ling Xiao still found it incredible, so he found a pot of wine and sat on the steps, drinking and thinking.

"Why are you sitting here drinking, kid?" Zhang Fan walked over, sat next to him, put his arm around his shoulders and asked.

"I want to drink." Ling Xiao replied.

Zhang Fan tilted his head and looked at Ling Xiao, his eyes full of gossip, "You kid, don't tell me there's a girl you like!"

"What nonsense!" Ling Xiao suddenly became anxious and his cheeks turned red instantly.

"Ah, you really have a girl you like, haha..." Zhang Fan became even more excited when he saw Ling Xiao blushing.

"I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going back to sleep." Ling Xiao pushed Zhang Fan away, stood up and walked towards the military camp.

"You're fifteen too, it's normal to have someone you like," Zhang Fan shouted from behind.

"This time when you return to Xing County, let the master help you propose marriage."

After hearing what Zhang Fan said, Ling Xiao walked faster.

Ling Xiao returned to his residence and tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

Besides Ling Xiao, the other person who couldn't sleep at night was Governor Kang.

Prefect Kang was tossing and turning with a woman in his arms, but he could not concentrate. Later, he could not sleep, and the image of Lu Xingchen kept appearing in his mind.

The next morning, Lu Xingchen got up and practiced a set of shooting skills, then walked out of his residence and went to the military camp.

Wei Hu and Zhang Fan, like her, got up early to practice martial arts and then appeared in the military camp.

Zhang Fan didn't recognize her at first. When he saw her entering the military camp, he greeted her, "Whose family are you, young lady? This is the military camp..."

Feixue ran in and heard Zhang Fan's words, "Your eyes are really white..."

Lu Xingchen looked at Zhang Fan, "Is the change so big?"

"You didn't recognize it?"

Zhang Fan looked at Lu Xingchen in front of him in shock.

He never expected that Lu Xingchen was actually a girl.

When Wei Hu saw Lu Xingchen, he was stunned for a moment, then his expression returned to normal in an instant, "Commander-in-Chief..."

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly, "How is the military camp here?"

"The barracks are very good. They were built by several generations. With a little repair, they can accommodate 10,000 soldiers..."

“The barracks have a complete training ground.”

"There's a stable over there..."

Lu Xingchen smiled and nodded, "The conditions here are indeed much better than those in Xing County."

"The troops in Jizhou are in the hands of Ma Chao..." Wei Hu said.

"Then let's meet!" Lu Xingchen said.

Wei Hu nodded.

Lu Xingchen met Ma Chao at the martial arts arena.

Ma Chao didn't expect that Lu Xingchen was a woman.

However, he also knew that Lu Xingchen was the commander of the Jizhou army appointed by Governor Kang.

Last night he met several soldiers who followed Zhou Cheng into battle.

They were full of praise for Lu Xingchen. He also knew that Lu Xingchen rewarded his troops based on their merits, and he received the reward on the spot.

The impact of doing this is very strong.

He could see that these soldiers admired Lu Xingchen.

"I am Ma Chao, the humble general, and I am here to pay my respects to the commander-in-chief." Ma Chao saluted.

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly, "What do you think of Zhou Cheng leading his troops to fight?"

"I... object... but he won't listen to me." Ma Chao replied.

He didn't expect Lu Xingchen to ask this question, and he didn't know whether his answer was appropriate.

"We are here to help Jizhou. If you were Zhou Cheng and saw us outside the city, what would you do?" Lu Xingchen asked.
