"Whoa! An important official from the Imperial City!"
The guard didn't dare delay for a second and rushed into the Lu Mansion to report the matter.
When Lu Yuan heard that soldiers under his command had arrived, he had the Mansion Gate guards welcome them inside.
Upon reaching the entrance to the main hall, the soldiers voluntarily placed their waist-worn swords and other weapons by the door.
The soldiers walked into the hall and saw Lu Yuan sitting upright on a chair in the center.
All the soldiers fell to their knees in unison and shouted, "The Commander of the Left Guard of the Mansion Army greets the Commander-in-Chief!"
Lu Yuan raised a hand politely. "There's no need for such formalities, everyone. Please, rise."
The soldiers stood in the middle of the hall.
Lu Yuan gestured. "Please, be seated."
The soldiers hesitated for a moment before obeying the Commander-in-Chief's order and sitting down.
