Night fell gradually, and the lights of the Lu family at night flickered like stars.
Dongpozhai, after the girl waited for the old lady to take a bath, Hong Quan had already started to polish his ink in the study.
However, his mood seems not high today. After he took the pen from the pen holder, he only wrote a few lines and put the pen on the pen. The girl brought the tea cup over, and he picked up the tea cup, stood up and walked straight to the grille. In front of the window, staring at the window.
"Hong Quan'er, have you figured it out?" Lu Shan said long.
Hong Quan crouched back and said, "Mostly I figured it out, because we don't have many people in Yangzhou, so the detailed situation may be different!"
He paused, and said: "Brother Zheng has suffered a lot in Yangzhou, suffered a lot of sins, and escaped many times. Every time he encounters danger, the lucky person has his own natural state and walks miraculously step by step. Come here. For the details, the old slave will tell you slowly..."
"After Lu Zheng arrived in Yangzhou, the first person to do this was the second grandmother Zhang Fuhua..."
Hong Quan's voice was not high, and his speech was slow or fast, but he told the original story of Lu Zheng's experience in Yangzhou. If Lu Zheng heard it on the spot, he would probably be frightened. The Jiangnan four people are really not easy.
In addition to the superficial strength, the Lu family secretly raised an unknown number of people. The entire Jiangnan and even the entire Dakang seemed to have a net belonging to the Lu family.
Lu Shanchang initiated a thorough investigation of Lu Zheng, and Lu Zheng's experience of a year in Yangzhou can appear on Lu Shanchang's desk in a day's work.
"Wait, what place do you think Green Bamboo Forest is?" Lu Shanchang interrupted Hong Quan's narration suddenly, and said.
Hong Quan shook his head and said, "This is not clear. It is inconspicuous in this place of Yangzhou. Maybe it is the residence of a certain hermit?"
"It's not that simple!" Lu Shanchang shook his head and said, "I have heard about Green Bamboo Forest three times. The last time you told me about Dai Yong, I heard Green Bamboo Forest once. You gave me the file of Nie Yong during the day. I also saw the green bamboo forest. Zhenger goes to the green bamboo forest every few days. Is this place an ordinary place?"
"Zheng'er is just a teenager, but how old do you think he is? Although Zhang Family is not worth mentioning, but he is able to predict enemies everywhere, and the counterattack is brilliant and sharp, no one is pointing, how is it possible? "Lu Shan said.
He paused slightly, and then said: "Nie Yong had been in Yangzhou for three years without ambition, but he suddenly rose up. From the perspective of time, it was just after he and Zheng'er met that he came to work from time to time. This may not be a coincidence.
This time Nie Yong was so concerned again. If the two were only mentors and apprentices, I guess they would not be there! I think these things should be planned and planned by Zheng'er alone. His intention is not to stay in Lu's house! Hey……"
Hong Quan frowned slightly, after a long time, he seemed to understand, and said: "Master Zheng is very qualified, young and promising! It's just..."
Lu Shanchang shook his head and said, "I was worried about the things you were worried about before, but now that I think about it, under the protection of my Lu family, no matter how good the seedlings are, it is difficult to achieve success.
The wealthy and powerful, the princes of the family, are either restricted by all kinds of constraints and are not allowed to display, or like Jun'er, they are greedy for wealth and do not want to make progress. No matter how good the horse farm is, there will be no wild horses. Throughout the ages, all talents have been tempered..."
Lu Shan paused for a long time, and then said, "As long as Lu Zheng has his surname'Lu,' he can't be separated from the Jiangning Lu family. The higher and the farther he goes, the closer the relationship will be.
So, don't worry about him being able to truly leave the Lu family, he will always be the Lu family, blood is thicker than water, ever-changing, and bloodline can't change anyway! "
Hong Quan nodded lightly and said nothing.
"Hong Quan'er, what do you think of Liuhe?"
Hong Quan said: "Zhan Tianqi came to Nie Yong, I'm afraid he was in a hurry to go to the doctor. This chief governor who has never fought is not stupid. He wanted to seize the military first, and then seize the benefits of Jiangnan.
However, the prince's identity is too sensitive, and places like Jiangnan are too eye-catching. Zhan Tianqi needed someone to stabilize the back for him, so he found Nie Yong.
Hey, Nie Yong has been in Yangzhou for three years and has no ambitions. From Yangzhou to Jinling, I don't know how many people want to make a fool of him! Is Liuhe comparable to the small counties below Yangzhou? This person has been in office for a few months, and it is said that he was played round and round, his county magistrate is basically useless! "
There was a playful look in Lu Shanchang's muddy eyes, and he said quietly, "I remember that Cheng Qiao Zhisong in Liuhe County used to be the prisoner of the Criminal Ministry, right?"
"Yes, Qiao Xiancheng is indeed a protégé of the Gu family, what the master meant..."
Lu Shanchang smiled and said, "Liuheyi County seems remote, but it has two unique conditions. The first is that the Nanfu Army is in Liuhe, and the second is that forty to fifty miles of Dajiang’s golden channel pass through Liuhe. Operating in Liuhe in Nine Years, I had a deep root, but I didn't dare to take the initiative too much. It was really a contradiction!"
"If Nie Yong wants to break the situation, he must use the entanglement between the Gu family and the court, or the interests of all parties, but this matter is easy to say, I am afraid it is not easy to do."
Hong Quandao: "Master, there is one more thing you can't forget. Nie Yong is yelling with thief one by one. Zhan Tian activated him. It is estimated that this is the yelling of thief! Dai thief and our Jiangnan power squad The story is very long, I don’t know if Nie Yong can get it right!"
Lu Shanchang raised his hand and said: "Okay, we are in Jiangning, Yingtian, we can't reach, so let's watch the fire from across the river! Okay, I don't want to write today's words, and I have to get up early tomorrow!"
...
There was nothing for a night. The next day, Lu Shanchang and Lu Qian both got up early, but they did not go to the Yamen.
Lu Zheng lived in the second room yard last night. Qi Qiuyue met his mother and son and was so excited that he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night.
Good guy, as soon as Lu Zheng came back, Qi Qiuyue now has a unique courtyard. Although there is only a small courtyard with three rooms, it is no longer the same as when he lived in the back house.
In addition to a courtyard, the family also gave Qi Qiuyue four girls and two wives. In addition, the monthly money and silver were all given according to the other aunts' rules. The various rewards during the New Year were the same. Qi Qiuyue finally got rid of After the life of a minion, he can now be the master.
She was happy, but also worried. Her worry was that Lu Zheng had just returned home and was leaving now. She didn't know how Lu Zheng was going to Yingtian. She didn't have much in her heart!
After getting up in the morning, Lu Zheng combed his hair under Ying'er's wait. Ying'er said, "My son, didn't you see the time? It's not early!"
"Huh? What's the matter?"
Yinger said: "Can it be okay? The breakfast aunty prepared for you has been hot several times. Also, you haven't gone to ask for peace with the master and madam. It is estimated that Master Nie will come to pick you up later. It's coming, time is running out!"
After Lu Zheng finished washing and coughing, Qi Qiuyue leaned forward with a smile: "Hurry up and eat, hey, you are really tired from coming all the way from Yangzhou, why don't you just rest at home for a few more days before going to Yingtian to study?"
Lu Zheng suddenly gave birth to a touch of warmth that he had never felt before. He was full of gratitude for the woman in front of him. This gratitude originated from a part of the former owner of the body, and a large part of him himself.
As a rule, Qi Qiuyue can bow her head to Mrs. Zhang like Lu Qian’s other concubines. As long as she bows her head, everything will follow Mrs. Zhang’s arrangements. She is already the master. Why would she suffer so many sins? bitter?
But the problem is that Mrs. Zhang can't allow other concubines to have children. The daughter is fine. It is absolutely impossible to have a boy. Qi Qiuyue almost fights with Mrs. Zhang like moths. Her only purpose is to keep Lu. Zheng had his life, if it weren't for her desperate protection, Lu Zheng would never survive today.
There is still a very clear memory segment in Lu Zheng's mind. This is when Lu Zheng was sent to Yangzhou by Madam Zhang to parte, Qi Qiuyue hugged him desperately, crying.
She said: "My mother really can't do anything, but I don't hesitate to let my mother lose her life. My mother doesn't really want to fight with my wife. My mother also wants to be the master, she wants to be the master. Waiting by your side. But my wife won't let you live, my mother can only fight to death to protect you...
But today I can’t protect my mother. You go to Yangzhou to let your uncle follow you. If you can’t survive, your mother won’t survive. In the next life, our mother and son will have a good baby, and we will no longer be bullied..."
When Lu Zheng saw Qi Qiuyue for the first time, this picture appeared in his mind instantly, his eyes were red, and he instantly believed that the woman in front of him was his mother. This was the most important thing in the world. Dear people, there is no one.
Qi Qiuyue wanted to stay with Lu Zheng for a few more days, but that naturally wouldn't work. For one thing, Nie Yong's side was waiting to be thriving, and time didn't wait for me. He really needed help. In addition, Lu Zheng was worried that the night would have many dreams. He finally found a chance to leave the Lu family. If he lived in the Lu family, it would be wrong if he changed his life.
Lu Zheng took advantage of Qi Qiuyue's bold words to relieve him while eating. After breakfast, Lu Zheng needed to visit his parents. He went to Mrs. Zhang's yard first.
Mrs. Zhang guessed that she knew that Lu Zheng was going, and deliberately hid. The girl in the yard said that his wife had gone to the temple fair early in the morning. Lu Zheng felt relieved. From the bottom of his heart, he really didn’t want to ask one to be with himself. A mother who has no blood relationship.
Mrs. Zhang is not in the yard, while Lu Qian is in the study room. His study room is called "Yangqi Zhai", which is the implied meaning of Mencius nurturing me with awe-inspiring spirit. Outside the study is a large courtyard with green pines and cypresses and green willows and bamboos. , The design is very elegant.
When Lu Zheng stepped into this courtyard, his first impression was silence. If it weren't for a girl who saw Lu Zheng and took the initiative to lead him, he would even think that there was no one living here.
The little maid leading the way was petite and walked silently. On the bluestone floor, the two of them shuttled like horse lanterns. Finally, they bypassed the forest and rockery. The words "Yangqizhai" came into his eyes. ...
