Shi Lu, seeing her son and nephew had both walked away, couldn't hold back her confusion any longer. While serving some dishes to her brother, she asked, "Weren't you doing well in Zhaoyang? Why did the Garrison Department suddenly recall you?"
Upon hearing this, Shi Qing also curiously looked over, clearly unaware of why his son returned so abruptly.
Shi Ping first glanced at Yuan Cheng, and seeing him nod, he began to answer, "Xiao Kangcheng has already succeeded me as the new Zhaoyang Guard Commander. From today onwards, I have been reassigned to Wuyuan to serve as the Guardian of Wuyuan."
"Guardian of Wuyuan, that's a promotion, congratulations!"
Shi Lu quickly reacted, her face beaming with joy.
Wuyuan hosts a major post with eight divisions, and being a Guardian is a fourth-rank position. Shi Ping's promotion was indeed a significant leap, a truly joyous event.
