Chapter 233： His Royal Highness Pu Wang!

The Ministry of Household has aroused a lot of discussion because of the contradiction between Lord Shangshu Ruan Jingnian and the right minister Lu Shanchang. The name Lu Zheng of the Lu family has been widely mentioned by officials at all levels.

At this time, the general government office was much more deserted than the household department. The Southern Dynasty court general government office was only a government office, and the general political envoys and deputy envoys could basically be said to be pensioners.

Usually everyone comes to the yamen, the main activities are cockfighting, gambling, bird walking, bragging, pass the day and then receive a monthly salary of the court, after leaving the yamen, you can be decent!

After all, as an official in the General Administration Department, there is a man in his head. Take Lu Qian as an example. Lu Qian and Lu Shan's elders and sons are officials in the same court. This is a good story in Yingtian Jiangning!

It’s just that Lu Qian is also notoriously stodgy and out-of-group in the Department of General Administration. He doesn’t play anything that everyone plays on weekdays. He shuts himself into the house every day when he comes to the yamen to read and write. He entertains himself and basically doesn’t follow. Colleagues.

The ambassador of general political affairs, surnamed Xin and named Qin, is a person from the capital, and he is not the same as the Jiangnan power sect. This person is different from Lu Qian. He likes to communicate with officials at all levels of the Department of General Administration of Public Affairs, and to mingle with everyone. Therefore, the general Secretary of General Administration of Public Affairs Lu Qian is an isolated existence.

Although Lu Qian has a good name and has raised a large number of doormen in Yingtian, his purpose of raising doormen is not to make the government official. He is holing his mind to change the court, thinking that even if the official is downgraded, he also wants to go to the government. One party!

Today, Lu Qian came to the Secretary of Political Affairs as usual, and what made him strange was that Xin Qin, who had a face to him on weekdays, was waiting at the office door with a smile on his face.

"Master Lu, come so early today?" Xin Qin said with a smile.

Lu Qian frowned slightly, feeling suspicious, not knowing which one Xin Qin was going to sing today, and immediately said, "Master Xin came earlier!"

"Haha!" Xin Qin let out a long laugh, and said, "Master Lu, I had some misunderstandings about you before, so please don't take it to your heart. Is Mr. Simon at the door? You can let your husband follow Master Lu in the future! There are not a few caring people around us, Xinqin is not such a rigid and inflexible person!"

What Xin Qin said made Lu Qian even more strange in his heart. The so-called Mr. Ximen is called Ximenye, and he is Lu Qian's number one doorman. Lu Qian does a lot of things with Ximenye planning for him.

Lu Qian valued Ximenye very seriously. He used to bring Ximenye with him when he came to the Secretary for General Affairs. However, Xin Qin used the government's important position and other people as an excuse not to enter arrogantly. Fainted. But when the officials at the senior level crushed people to death, Lu Qian could only admit counsel.

It’s better today. Compared to the previous one, Xin Qin’s attitude took a 180-degree turn. Lu Qian couldn’t figure out his intentions, but since Xin Qin opened the door to him, Lu Qian would even let Ximen go. Ye called inside the yamen, and the two were locked up in the room again to "conspiracy".

Ximen Ye was about 40 years old, and he was born with big ears and an extraordinary manner. Although he was only a talented person, Lu Qian didn't know him for a long time before he introduced Xi Men Ye as a confidant.

Ximenye's greatest strength is that he is good at figuring out people's minds. Only he knows what Lu Qian thinks in his heart, so every time he acts in accordance with Lu Qian's intentions, Lu Qian will not be able to do without him over time.

There is another point. Lu Qian is in charge of many things about Lu Qian's family. These matters are in no detail. As long as Ximen Ye conspires for him, no matter how big the problem is, he can easily solve it. This is also an important reason why Ximen Ye can become Lu Qian's number one doorman. .

"Mr. Simon, there is something wrong with Xin Qin today. He showed kindness to me for no reason. What is his intention?" Lu Qian said.

Ximenye touched the mustache at the corner of his mouth, and said: "The owner doesn't need to be overworked, he only needs to wait quietly to understand the truth. I assert that something must happen to the Secretary of General Affairs and Administration today!

"Oh? Is it possible that Mr. Isn't what he planned for me now?" Lu Qian's heart suddenly became agitated, and what Ximenye planned for him was naturally related to his career.

Lu Qian couldn't bear the leisure of the Secretary of General Affairs, and felt that he was unable to realize his lofty ambitions when he was consumed by the Secretary of General Affairs. So Ximen Ye planned a plan for him to retreat.

The so-called retreat for progress is to let Lu Qian downgrade himself, find a way to start from the official department, and place the place as the chief official, prefer to be a county magistrate, start struggling from a small place, and then work slowly one step at a time.

Lu Qian has been planning this matter from last year to this year. Is there good news now?

Lu Qian couldn't help thinking carefully about Xin Qin's attitude just now. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the possibility was very high. For a while, he couldn't calm down, and he paced back and forth in the room.

Ximenye said on the side: "The Dong family, if it is really done, then congratulations to the Dong family. The Dong family is able to shepherd the people on behalf of the emperor. There is a lot to do, and the Dong family's full of talents finally have a place to be useful!"

Ximen Ye was holding it next to him, and Lu Qian was even more excited, but on the face he still said with a strong sense of composure: "Mr. Mr. is the best!"

The two were locked in the room thinking about the future, and suddenly heard a sharp shout from outside: "His Royal Highness Pu is here!"

"Huh?" Lu Qian was stunned for a moment, lost his color in shock, quickly tidied his clothes and opened the door.

All the officials of the General Administration Department’s Yamen have already lined up at the door. Everyone bowed their heads and watched for a while. A middle-aged man in a python robe was holding a folding fan, surrounded by many attendants, and walked towards this place. Walk over.

Two eunuchs led the way, and the man in python went all the way to the entrance of the Tongzheng Division. The Tongzheng Envoy Xin Qin led everyone to kneel on the ground and said in the same way: "Weichen XX, I have seen His Royal Highness Pu."

King Pu of Jinling, the immediate brother of the current emperor, although the prince of the Dakang Dynasty did not participate in government affairs, his status was extremely high, and the relationship between King Pu and the emperor was very close.

In fact, King Pu was divided into Jinling, nominally he was in charge of the Southern court for the emperor! Even if this kind of management is only ceremonial, but in the Southern Palace, King Pu is also the most respected person who does his part.

His Royal Highness Pu Wang is easy-going, likes poetry and poetry, and loves to make famous prostitutes and talents. The mirage pavilion on the Qinhuai River is the property of His Royal Highness Pu Wang, and Jinling's first talented Li Mu is the guest of the palace.

"Everyone, please be flat, let's not set the rules, what should you do and continue to do, okay?" King Pu gently raised his hand, and everyone thanked him and stood up.

Xin Qin smiled and leaned forward and said, "His Royal Highness, what is the wind that blows you to our little General Secretary today?"

King Pu pointed at Xin Qin with his finger: "You, you are like a loach, a thief! Don't you really know what I came here for?"

Xin Qin was stunned, and immediately laughed, turning his head and said, "Master Lu, why don't you come over and meet your Royal Highness?"

Lu Qian was shocked, and quickly stepped forward, knelt down again very excited: "Weichen..."

"Okay, Master Lu, it's no longer a rule!" King Pu stepped forward and put the folding fan on Lu Qian's hand, making it difficult for Lu Qian to kneel down.

The two looked at each other, and King Pu said: "Master Lu, I have nothing else to do when I came here today. I came here to find you! I want to confirm one thing to you. I heard that Master Lu has a son named Lu Zheng. , I don't know if it is or not?"

"Ah..." Lu Qian was stunned for an instant, with countless thoughts in his mind, wondering why the dignified Royal Highness Prince Pu, the royal nobleman, suddenly mentioned Lu Zheng, the rebellious son, could it be that this rebellious son caused trouble?

When he thought of this, his expression changed, and he said, "His Royal Highness, Lu Zheng is indeed the son of the next. Has this rebellious son committed something that made the prince unhappy?"

"Haha, yes, Lu Zheng did commit something, and it was a serious thing! You dad is also a guilt!" Pu Wang laughed.

When Lu Qian heard this, he was so frightened that he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground as his legs were soft, and said, "The prince, what exactly did this rebellious son have committed, I hope the prince will tell you, if... Regardless, the prince can rest assured that my Lu family will definitely not protect shortcomings, surely..."

"Okay, Master Lu, I look scared of you!" King Pu waved his hand, looking rather disappointed, the leading **** came over and said:

"Master Lu, Your Majesty is joking with you! Your son is really amazing. Yesterday, he compared his number one talented man Li Mu on the Qinhuai River. Fan Duoduo, the first pedigree of the Qinhuai River, loved the son. The girl sang two poems publicly, both by Ling Gongzi.

The prince is a person who loves talents, and he especially likes Danqing poetry. The prince's talent is very appreciated by the prince. It is a pity that the prince sent someone to the Lujia in Jiangning, but he did not see the prince. Your father asked Ming why. "

As soon as Lu Qian heard this, the whole person was dumbfounded, he couldn't believe his ears. what? Did Lu Zheng compare Li Mu, the number one talented man in Jinling, on the Qinhuai River?

There are many talents in Jinling, but they are not easy generations. Li Mu is the leader among them. How could Lu Zheng compare to Li Mu in talents?

Lu Qian's mind was suddenly confused. His Royal Highness was right in front of him. How could the dignified prince lie? But Lu Qian didn't know anything about Lu Zheng, he had never known about his own son!

"This... Your Majesty, Dog Lu Zheng is indeed not at home. Mr. Nie Yongnie, the county magistrate of Liuhe County, is the teacher of Mr. Nie, and Mr. Dog is now studying with Mr. Nie..." Lu Qian sorted out his thoughts and hesitated about Lu Zheng's whereabouts. Came out.

"That's right!" King Pu stomped, "No wonder we can't find him, okay, okay, Master Lu, sirs, I came here to ask about this, now I’m clear about it, it’s all right. What should you do?"

After Wang Pu finished speaking, he unfolded the folding fan in his hand and yelled: "Let's go, I must go and see this brother Lu Jiazheng in person today, there is a Liner in the Lu family!"
