"See Your Highness!" In the main hall of the Qi Palace, five people led by Lu Hong walked in. When they saw Li Yan sitting in the hall, they immediately bowed and bowed.

"You don't have to be polite, please sit down!" Li Yan pointed casually at the seat next to him. The injuries behind him had almost healed. Now he was lying on the chair with a lazy face. Lu Hong and others were all Wen Xin's subordinates, and they could barely be considered half of their own, so they didn't have to be too polite to them. Lu Hong and his wife were originally from the royal palace, and they had long been used to Li Yan's laziness in the mansion, and they didn't care about it. They looked for a chair to sit down.

"Your Highness, how are you doing now?" Aunt Hu asked immediately as soon as she sat down. Since confessing their origin to Li Yan last time, Aunt Hu and his wife have been living outside with Lu Qing and the others, and they don't know the situation of the Chinese heart of the royal palace.

"Although Wenxin cried a lot after knowing her life experience, she is much better now. Don't worry about this!" Li Yan replied Wen Yan. When she heard that Wenxin was fine, Aunt Hu and Lu Hong were all relieved.

"Lu Hong, you confessed your origin to me last time. I am very grateful for your trust in this. As for the people you brought, I can also arrange it for you as you ask. But I want to ask, do you really want to join the Tang army to serve?" Li Yan suddenly asked straight to the point.

Hearing Li Yan's question, Lu Hong and Aunt Hu both looked at Lu Qing. Although their husband and wife had higher identities than Lu Qing, Lu Qing had always been responsible for overseas affairs, and he also made the decision to join the army.

"Your Highness. The reason why we chose to join the army is not only a matter of origin, but the most important thing is to be forced." Lu Qing said with a wry smile.

"Oh, why is this?" Li Yan asked with a smile. He was not ignorant of Lu Qing and others' situation.

"Your Highness, when our brothers were in the south, they would occasionally do some unsubstantiated business because of their livelihood. Because of their good strength, they made a little name. They were all registered in the southern governments. Therefore, even if others don't know that we are old ministers of the Liang State, if someone recognizes our three brothers, there will still be great trouble. The only way is to simply let us enter the army in the name of reunion and counteract the crimes committed with military merits!" Lu Qing explained with a wry smile.

After hearing this, Li Yan smiled slightly: "The green wolf, the evil tiger, and the dragon, are known as the Three Hegemons of the South China Sea. All the maritime merchants going south must hand over certain offerings to you. As long as the merchant ship with your flag is planted, no pirate dares to move. Even the government can do nothing to you. If this is only a little famous, then the governments along the southern coast should have their own guilt."

When they heard Li Yan tell his identity, Lu Qing and Hu Li both shook their bodies and their faces changed a little, but soon they reacted, looked at each other, then lowered their heads and said nothing, which was accusation of Li Yan's words.

In fact, when Lu Qing and his team took over the mission of exploring the new route, Li Yan had already sent people to inquire about their origin. With Lu Qing and his threes in the south, there were many people who knew them, so it was easy to find out their identities. At the same time, Li Yan also knew that although they were pirates, they did not just rob property like other pirates. Instead, after their strength grew, they established a set of orders on the sea surface. Then, relying on their own strength to ensure the execution of this order and make huge profits from it. This method seems to be relatively generous, but in fact it costs less than robbery, and the profits obtained are many times higher than robbery. From this point, it can be seen that the cleverness of Lu Qing and the other three is.

"Your Highness, although your second brother and the others are called pirates, they have never killed innocent people indiscriminately. Please let Your Highness observe this!" Seeing that your second brother and the others did not speak, Lu Hong hurriedly stood up and pleaded for them.

"Haha, I know this, and I don't plan to pursue them as pirates, but I have a private opinion on what you want to join the army!" Li Yan said with a smile, and at the same time, he looked at Lu Qing and the other two, and became more intimate. What Lu Qing and the others did was actually what Li Yan had always wanted to do, but compared to them, Li Yan planned to do things more formally.

When Lu Qing and the other two heard Li Yan's words, they looked at each other, then bowed forward and said, "Please give me some advice!"

Li Yan suddenly sat upright, glanced at Lu Qing and others below, and then said slowly: "You don't have to worry about the identity of pirates. In this battle of Dengzhou, I have reported your contributions to the rescue of nearly one million people in Dengzhou. The contribution of the father to save you will definitely be greatly appreciated by the father. As for the crimes you committed in the past, I will also convince the father to eliminate them from now on, so you don't have any psychological burden!"

When Lu Qing and the other two were naturally overjoyed when they heard Li Yan's words, Aunt Hu also slapped her younger brother twice with joy. Only Lu Hong was very calm and looked at Li Yan with squinted eyes, as if she was not surprised by the news.

"Your Highness, your subordinates are all old ministers of the princess, and they are also his subordinates. If your superior has any instructions, you will definitely not refuse!" After Lu Qing and the others were excited, Lu Hong walked out and bowed to Li Yan. He had already seen that Li Yan had already taken back his mind to take them back, and as their identity, being able to use it for Li Yan was the best destination, so he took the initiative to stand up and show his loyalty.

When Lu Qing heard the elder brother's words, he immediately realized that they had been a little reluctant to choose to join the Tang army. After all, they were enemies back then, but now they had to serve the enemy, so they were all a little repulsive. But Li Yan was different. He was the princess' husband, and even if he was the princess of Liang State, they would be more psychologically acceptable if they served him.

"If your highness has arrangements, we will work hard!" Lu Qing and the other two stepped forward and half-kneeled and saluted. They had been wandering outside for more than ten years. Although they had lived a good life, their greatest wish was to return to their hometown openly. Now Li Yan has helped them clean up their identities and no longer have to worry about being wanted by the government in the future. It would be even more problematic to return to their hometown to take a look. Moreover, they also knew that the King of Qi in front of them was the most beloved prince of Emperor Tang. If he followed him, his future would be even more limitless.

"Okay!" Finally, when Lu Hong and the others were allegiance, Li Yan shouted happily, "Lu Hong, I have appointed you as the royal family counselor and military affairs. On the fifth rank, Hu Yun will still temporarily serve as the Sima of the royal family. As for Lu Qing, Hu Li and Zhou Long, I don't know much about you. You can introduce yourself first, or talk about what position you want to do. I will try my best to satisfy you!"

The so-called military consultant has a very good position. Although the rank of the fifth rank is lower than that of the Chief of Staff and Sima, his status in the royal palace is extremely high, because this position is equivalent to the chief of staff of later generations. He specifically provides advice for Li Yan, and at the same time has certain control over all departments within the royal palace. It is precisely because of this that Lu Hong heard that Li Yan gave him such an important position at once, and Gu Jingbubo's face was moved, and he stepped forward and knelt down and bowed and said, "My minister, Lu Hong, thank Your Highness for the reward!"

Li Yan also stood up quickly, walked down a few steps, and personally helped Lu Hong up and said, "Lu doesn't have to be polite to join the army. I had known that you had great talents, but you have always been unwilling to be an official. This has always caused me to shock things. Today I finally fulfilled my wish. I believe that with Mr. Lu's assistance, I will definitely do more!"

Seeing Li Yan so polite, Lu Hong was naturally grateful and expressed his loyalty on the spot that he would be loyal to his Highness. Although both of them knew that the other party was acting, they did not make it clear. Instead, they followed the other party's tricks and then looked at Lu Qing and the other party's other people together. Li Yan was still waiting for them to introduce himself.

Lu Qing looked at Hu Li and Zhou Long behind him, and was the first to stand up and said, "Your Highness, the villain has a lot of experience in naval battles and is also very proficient in sailing on the sea. Therefore, the villain hopes to lead the fleet and gallop on the sea."

After hearing this, Li Yan nodded, turned to look at Hu Li and Zhou Long again.

"Your Highness, the evil tiger has no other ability, he just likes to fight. As long as I give me a thousand troops, even if there are ten times more enemies, I will be sure to annihilate and destroy them!" Hu Li shouted loudly, shocking Li Yan wanted to take a step back.

"Zhou is good at training troops. Although he is not as good as Brother Lu in naval warfare, he is even less powerful than Tiger's power in land warfare, but he also has his own experience in naval warfare." Zhou Long also said slowly. Although he is usually taciturn, he is actually the most comprehensive of the three. Let's not talk about training troops. Lu Qing and Tiger's power are both willing to lose and have their own unique features in commanding naval warfare.

"Your Highness, Hu Li and Zhou Long were the deputy commanders of the Hut Head Army. Not only were they very brave, but they were also very knowledgeable about marching and formation." At this time, Lu Hong also introduced, and his tone emphasized the three words "Hut Head Army", as if this name was a very respectful title.

"Tiger Head Army? What kind of army is this?" Li Yan asked curiously. This is the second time he has heard of this name. Last time Aunt Hu mentioned this name when introducing Wen Xin's life experience, but Li Yan didn't have time to ask at that time. Now, when Lu Hong said, it seems that this Tier Head Army is very amazing?

When Li Yan asked about the Hutou Army, Lu Hong and his friends looked at Aunt Hu. Hu Li and Zhou Long were just deputy commanders of the Hutou Army, while the commander was Aunt Hu who was the woman.

When Aunt Hu heard the three words "Tiger Army", she immediately showed a look of pride on her face. At the same time, her body shook, and a faint murderous aura slowly spread from around her.
