Chapter 350： Uncle Lu!

Lu Zheng didn’t know that he had an accidental contact with Xuanjing Sirenma. He had always been watching from behind. His name had already been recorded on a certain directory. Emperor Xin De already knew that Jiangnan Jieyuan’s "Lu" The existence of "Zheng", and behind all this, there is a person named Xu Tiandao, but he has always been an existence that he has not paid attention to, probed, or come into contact with.

Lu Zheng decided to enter Beijing ahead of time. When he arrived in the capital, he would naturally no longer be as free as Ba County.

Lu Lun, the uncle of Lu Zheng in Jiangnan, and his eldest brother Lu Ning are both in the capital. Lu Lun is now the master of Hongyou Temple. After Lu Ning was awarded a scholar, he was waiting for shortage in the capital, and he is currently writing calligraphy at Hongyou Temple.

Lu Lun’s eldest wife was surnamed Su, and the Su family in the capital was the common surname. Although Mrs. Su was not a woman from the Su family, she was also very honorable. Among the many wives of the Lu family, Madam Su had the highest status.

After Lu Lun and Mrs. Su were married, most of them served as officials in Beijing. It is not an exaggeration to say that Lu Lun and his son were left in the presence of the Jiangnan Lu family in Beijing.

Lu Zheng cannot do other things when he enters Beijing. He must first visit Lu Lun. The etiquette of the Dakang Dynasty is the etiquette of the world. After Lu Zheng enters Beijing, Lu Lun must arrange his food and daily life in Beijing, otherwise it will be regarded as rude. This is also one of the reasons why Lu Zheng is unwilling to promote Beijing.

The courtyard where Lu Lun lives in the capital is outside the front door. It is a small courtyard with three main rooms and five penthouses. If such a courtyard is placed hundreds of years later, it must be a first-class mansion in the capital.

But these courtyard houses are right now, but a solitary courtyard looks a little shame. This is not because Lu Lun is too poor. Even if the Jiangnan Lu family is poor, it is not difficult to set up a slightly magnificent mansion in the capital with the wealth of Jiangnan.

It is that Lu Lun's current official position is low, and the relationship between Jiangnan Power and the court is very delicate, so he is always careful, not only cautious for officials, but also daily life is like walking on thin ice!

Before Lu Zheng entered Beijing, he had already asked the boy to report the letter in advance. Lu Zheng set off from Ba County and walked more than a hundred miles in the ice and snow for three days. He did not dare to bring more servants. He only dared to bring Ying'er and the boy to the door.

The housekeeper of the Lu Mansion was called Hong Qing, who was brought by Lu Lun from the south of the Yangtze River. He and Hong Shen were cousins, but his appearance was not the same as Hong Shen.

Look at this Hong Qing, five short stature, dressed in coarse linen clothes, a melon hat on his head, chuckles, nodding and bowing, where is the style of Hong Shen's Lu House butler?

However, Lu Zheng did not dare to underestimate this person. It is easy to fight for dignity everywhere in this world. He is willing to put down his figure and be a grandson everywhere, especially in the city.

The capital is not the south of the Yangtze River. Hong Qing has been following Lu Lun to Beijing for so many years. If Lu Lun can gain a foothold in the capital, Hong Qing’s merits are bound to be indispensable. If Hong Qing is really like Hong Shen, he will be arrogant and arrogant when he first meets Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng didn't care.

But at the moment, Hong Qing is respectful and polite everywhere, shouting one by one of the three young masters. Such a cold day outside can actually make Lu Zheng feel warm in his heart. It can be seen that this person can be an easy person?

Under the guidance of Hong Qing, Lu Zheng went straight to the main room, and when he reached the main room hall, he saw a woman in costume sitting on the top of the hall. The women in Beijing are not like Jiangnan. They don't like to wear short skirts but like long skirts. Compared with A, this is more graceful and noble.

Look at this woman, about her age in her early forties, fair complexion, a little fat, with a smile on her face, she looks very kind and amiable.

Lu Zheng raised his head and glanced, then he confirmed the identity of the other party. He quickly stepped forward and knelt down and said, "Nephew Lu Zheng has seen my aunt!"

"Oh, Zheng'er's polite, hurry up, get up!" The woman stepped forward to help Lu Zheng up, her words were very kind: "Knowing that you are coming, I've already got someone to clean up the wing. My second uncle came in and said that he wanted you to live outside. Where can I go?

Naturally, our family must live together. The capital here is not as good as Jiangnan, and every inch of land is very expensive. Although our house is a bit small, where is there a lot of you alone?

Besides, Zhenger, you came to the capital to study. It doesn't matter if the conditions are more difficult. Your uncle and elder brother are also scholars. If you stay together more, it will be a great benefit to your studies! "

Madam Su is very talkative and enthusiastic. Lu Zheng has no room for rejection, only secretly crying out in his heart.

Lu Zheng came to the door with time, but Lu Lun and Lu Ning probably have not returned yet. The officials in the capital are officials at the feet of the emperor, and things are quite busy.

Hongshe Temple is responsible for tributaries and diplomatic etiquette. In recent times, disputes between the Dakang Dynasty and Beiyan have continued. Xia Guo from Longyou also wants to take advantage of the fire, so there is more work to deal with.

Lu Ning temporarily wrote a post in Honghu Temple, which was equivalent to a clerk-like position. He followed his father to handle all kinds of chores, and the work was also very onerous.

Lu Zheng arrived early, and could only wait. Fortunately, Mrs. Su was kind and asked Lu Zheng all kinds of cold and warm, so that the scene would not be embarrassing.

Lu Zheng waited for almost half an hour before Lu Lun and Lu Ning and his son came back from outside. Lu Zheng hurriedly went to the yard with Mrs. Su to greet them.

Lu Lun and Lu Qian had similar faces, except that they were thinner. There was no mountain and dew between Gu and Pan, and they were more restrained and calm than Lu Qian. Lu Ning was a young talent, elegant and unrestrained. He followed Lu Lun, looking at his nose and heart. In fact, he had very dishonest eyes and looked around. He saw Lu Zheng as soon as he entered the door. Lu Zheng grinned, which made Lu Zheng feel quite at ease.

For Lu Zheng, he has been under the fence since Yangzhou. When he came to Beijing this time, he was also worried about the Lu Lun family. After all, as someone who has lived in the modern world, Lu Zheng is not used to living in the same house with other relatives. Next, he felt that this was a kind of restraint to him!

Lu Lun also saw Lu Zheng and walked quickly over and said, "But brother Zheng? I received a letter from my second brother saying that you have already entered Beijing. I have not heard from you for a few months, and I am anxious.

I'm fine now. I was able to settle down in Beijing a year ago, and when it was time to study after the beginning of the spring next year, I would not be distracted by other things. Okay, okay! "

Lu Lun approached Lu Zheng and was very interested. Lu Zheng hurriedly said, "Nephew Lu Zheng has met his uncle! He has met his cousin!"

Lu Ning came over to salute Lu Zheng and said, "Brother Zheng is so talented. I got the name of the No. 1 talented man in Jiangnan, Lu Jiaerlang. I really envy my cousin!

After entering Beijing this time, you should study hard and try to get the exam in the Hall of Examinations overnight. It is best to enter the Imperial Academy! "

Lu Ning's attitude towards Lu Zheng was very intimate, which made Lu Zheng not feel hypocritical, but it reduced Lu Zheng's alertness a lot. He immediately said, "Thank you, cousin, you are my role model. I will definitely work hard! "

Lu Lun said: "Brother Zheng, you should be high-minded. Although your elder brother has won fame, he regrets not being able to enter the Hanlin. You should aim to enter the Hanlin!"

Lu Lun paused, and then said: "Zheng'er, Beijing is a place of right and wrong. Your talent is very famous, your friendship is very wide, and your reputation is very big. I have heard all of these. Uncle hopes that you can converge in the capital. Is it okay to study at ease and be a low-key person?"

Lu Zheng heard Lu Lun say this, and he was moved a lot. Lu Zheng had a lot of people in contact with the Lu family. His father, Lu Qian, was cold all day, and looked high, and never communicated with Lu Zheng on an equal footing.

Lu Zheng didn't expect that after he came to the capital, he met Lu Lun, who was so amiable, he really had a kind of loyal elder demeanor.

"Uncle rest assured, since my nephew has come to the capital, he naturally listens to his uncle's arrangements, especially not dare to slack off a little in his studies!" Lu Zhenglang said.

Lu Lun laughed loudly and said, "Okay, okay, good brother, it's really our Qianliju at home. Okay, it's getting late, and your stomach must be hungry too. Let's have dinner right away!"

Lu's dinner is not rich, the dishes are relatively simple and simple, but they are all tastes of the south of the Yangtze River, which is very different from the northern taste that Lu Zheng has eaten recently, but he eats with relish.

Lu Lun had someone specially prepared wine, and Lu Zheng also drank a little. At the banquet, the family did not have the same rules as Jiangnan who could not speak and sleep. When everyone drank, Lu Lun proposed to drink the order.

Among the few people present, Lu Lun and Lu Zheng were both candidates. Lu Ning was even awarded a jinshi, and Mrs. Su’s talent was also very good. At the beginning of the drink order, everyone fought very fiercely. Lu Zheng was a little cautious at first, but very Soon, I was infected by the atmosphere of the banquet, and I even blended into it, and I felt particularly refreshed.

I have to say that in the past few days, Lu Zheng had made very bad plans. He didn't expect the result to be much better than he had imagined. Lu Lun’s personality is completely different from Lu Qian. Although he is a brother, his personalities are quite different.

Lu Zheng suddenly thought of a sentence: "The horizon pattern determines the height of a person." Lu Lun deserves to be a person who has lived in the capital for a long time. His talents may not be high, but his horizon and pattern are not comparable to other brothers of the Lu family.

His stay in the capital these years represents the weak existence of the Lu family. His officials are very small and his life is very ordinary, but his accumulation and precipitation in his heart is really not to be underestimated!

After a good drink, Lu Lun said to Lu Zheng: "Zheng'er, today you have a small test and let me know that your talent is really extraordinary! The wealth of the capital, for the scholars of my generation, depends on his own ability. Strive hard, go hard. Relying on people, relying on heaven, and relying on ancestors is not a skill.

Especially for our Lu family, Jiangnan is already in decline, and there is nothing the family can do to get ahead except by themselves. Zheng'er, you can understand all these ideals! "

He looked at Lu Ning and said, "Ning'er, as your eldest brother, you must always set an example at home. You must never teach Zheng'er the daddy in the capital, you know?"

Lu Ning repeatedly said that his manners made Lu Zheng couldn't help but want to laugh...
