After victory in war, "distributing rewards" was an inevitable step.

At this time, Lu PingAn, who had rendered great merit, was naturally invited over to receive his "enfeoffment."
Lu PingAn would take what he was entitled to. If he did not, it would instead make people uneasy and dissatisfied. If you refuse to take it, are you
