”Alright, Director Song, I won't accompany you. If there's a chance in the future, I will treat you to wine again.” Yang Lin laughed, then said seriously: ”Thanks to Young Emperor's kindness, I will go and mobilize the army now, without delay, lead the troops south immediately.”

Yang Lin turned around and looked at Tian Feng, Mu Hui, Kuai Liang and the others with an extremely serious expression, and said in a stern voice: ”During the time I am leading the troops south, you guys better watch over Youzhou. Without my order, no matter what, Youzhou will not be able to touch a single plant!”

After Yang Lin finished speaking, without waiting for them to react, he cupped his hands towards Song Dian and quickly turned around.

Song Dian looked at Yang Lin's departing back as he shook his head with a bitter smile: ”We're all hussar general, why are you still so popular?”

Tian Feng, Mu Lun, Kuai Liang and the others were all confused as well. Lord General had left the Youzhou many times and always handed over the affairs of the Youzhou to them, even when the Lord General was at the Youzhou, he did not manage any government affairs. What happened today?

In the backyard of Schmidt's house, Madame Zhou was sitting upright in front of a table. How many years had it been? She had always hoped for Yang Lin to be able to thrive, but she never thought that in just a few years, her grandchildren had already flown around the entire courtyard.

Almost all of Yang Lin's wives were gathered in the great hall. They had also just heard that Yang Lin had returned, so they immediately cleaned themselves up and went to his side, waiting for him to arrive. They hadn't seen each other for over a month. Everyone was anxiously waiting.

”Reporting...” Madam, the moment Old Master returned to the Schmidt's house, an angel from the imperial court came. After receiving the imperial edict, the Old Master immediately led the personal guards out of the city. While everyone was waiting, a servant suddenly came to report.

”This stinking brat, what rebellion is so urgent? He doesn't even fight when he returns home?” Madame Zhou was truly a little angry now. She stood up angrily and said, ”To put an end to the rebellion, there has been an end to it for over a year. Where did all this rebellion come from?” If he goes on like this, perhaps there will be a rebellion in his own family? ”

The ladies looked at each other, but said nothing. After washing up for a long time and not even seeing each other, everyone couldn't help feeling a bit depressed. However, seeing that Madame Zhou was angry, everyone could not say anything. They could only walk forward and console her.

When he arrived at the inn Liu Yu was staying, Song Dian suddenly felt that something was amiss. He came here to announce the decree, ordering Liu Yu to take over the position of Youzhou Mu. But Yang Lin had actually left, and even let him leave, how could Liu Yu take over?

”Send someone to bring him back?” This thought flashed past Song Dian's mind, but was immediately rejected by him. Yang Lin had been ordered to head south, and the Empress Dowager He was urging him urgently, so he could not delay for even a moment. If Yang Lin came back to deliver the goods and delayed it for a few days, if something major happened to Luoyang, he would probably be facing a great calamity.

Isn't it just handing over a few days later? What's the big deal? As long as they stabilize the Luoyang, it would not be too late for Yang Lin to come back and handover. When Song Dian thought about this, he immediately understood. He immediately brought his subordinates to the inn that Liu Yu was staying.

These days, Liu Yu was waiting for the imperial edict. When he first came to Youzhou, Hanling Emperor Liu Hong had already told him that he was prepared to take over. But even when news of Hanling Emperor's death arrived, he did not receive the royal decree, and could not help but become anxious.

At this time, upon hearing the news that Song Dian had arrived in Guangyang City, he decided to wait in the tavern. As the Han Dynasty, and a Grand Commandant of the imperial court, Liu Yu had no need to welcome Song Dian. Walking out of his own courtyard was already giving Song Dian a lot of face.

Song Dian was also extremely respectful towards Liu Yu, after being courteous for a while, he then read out the Young Emperor's imperial edict.

Liu Yu took the imperial edict in his hand, as if he couldn't believe his own ears, and read it again seriously. The result confirmed that he did not hear wrongly, and Song Dian did not read wrongly either. He had only appointed him as Youzhou's Master, and did not mention a single word about Yang Lin's military power.

”Then what about Yang Lin?” Liu Yu looked at Song Dian and asked unhappily.

”Yang Lin has calmed the waves, annihilated Wu Huan, pacified Zhang Ju, Zhang Chun has done meritorious deeds, and was bestowed the title of hussar general. According to the orders of the imperial government, he had already led the troops under his command to the south to stabilize the Army of Montenegro. ” Song Dian thought that Liu Yu was in a rush to complete the mission, and said quickly.

”Oh …” Liu Yu sighed softly, but his heart felt somewhat bitter. Hanling Emperor was initially prepared to let Yang Lin get rid of the military power, but who would have thought that he would get even more authority right now. Liu Yu did not know what was happening in the imperial court, so he could only helplessly shake his head, and quietly said: ”Since things have come to this, I will take over now.”
