Su Qing's begging for an official is an episode, but for the recent Lu Zheng, it is also an annoyance that cannot be ignored! The so-called being in a high position is often involuntary!
For example, in the case of Su Qing’s request for an official, Lu Zheng’s way of thinking about problems should not only focus on personal emotions. He must first consider the overall situation and the balance of the various forces in the court. He can find the vacancies after repeated thinking and deliberation. Are these places suitable for Su Qing?
After all this is done, there is another important point, that is, Lu Zheng needs to coordinate and communicate through the leaders of the Lu family and the Su family, which is indispensable.
Because for a family, the resources of the family are limited, and only a few people can be cultivated by exhausting the resources of the family. Who can go out to do business and who can occupy how much family resources is determined by the top figures in the family. Such as Su Qing is not the backbone of the second generation in the family. Therefore, the Su family will not necessarily agree to Lu Zheng giving Su Qing the most appropriate position. This may be the most difficult hurdle for Su Qing to overcome. Hom.
Lu Zheng felt the helplessness of this family society, and at the same time was full of joy for his life, because when Lu Zheng went from Yangzhou to Jinling, and then to the capital, the Lu family had completely declined. If not, the Lu family and Su The family is as strong, and Lu Zheng may not be able to cross the family barrier at all!
Therefore, Su Qing was destined to come here on excitement and return in despair. Lu Zheng didn't want him to lose hope completely. He just kept him in Jinling and continued to wait. After all, he could wait for the opportunity to be absent.
Su Qing's case of seeking an official is just a trivial matter. For Lu Zheng, the big thing that needs to be faced is the pressure from Emperor Xinde.
Regarding the Nanfu Army, Lu Zheng did not back down because this matter absolutely cannot be backed down, but the temperament of Emperor Xin De Lu Zheng knows too well, because of this matter, he must have a grudge in his heart, and soon Xin De Emperor should make a move. It has become inevitable that the Jiangnan Power Sovereign will be under pressure, and Lu Zheng is the most likely to be under pressure.
Lu Zheng now carefully sorted out the situation in Jinling in the south of the Yangtze River. He could probably see that the Duan family is now close to Emperor Xinde, and he wants to become a force of its own. Except for the Duan family, the attitude of the Jin family was a bit ambiguous. Jin Wannian was obviously hesitant, and it was difficult to decide on many things.
In addition to these two families, others like the Cao family, the Zhao family and even the Zuo family have deep interest entanglements with the Lu family. It is already difficult for them to get rid of Lu Zheng’s influence, so it is no exaggeration to say, Although Lu Zheng is only an official secretary now, the question in his mind is comparable to that of a prime minister.
Against this background, Emperor Xinde suddenly proposed to let Lu Shanchang join the pavilion. Obviously, this is also welcome to the Lu family. At least after Lu Shanchang joined the pavilion, these coordinated matters, these matters related to the big interests of the family, no longer need Lu Zheng to come forward. Up.
But can Lu Zheng really be able to hide behind Lu Shanchang at ease? The answer is obviously impossible. It is very likely that Emperor Xin De had other arrangements for Lu Zheng, which made Lu Zheng appear in series.
Lu Zheng thought about his several adventures, especially when he went to Beidi Beiyan. That time he was almost dead for nine years from the mission, and now he was afraid of thinking about it. Later, there were various dangers one after another, and Lu Zheng walked over step by step. Now, what big trick is brewing in the heart of Emperor Xinde?
Lu Zheng wanted to see Xu Tiandao very much. He wanted to ask what happened to Emperor Xin De, if this guy wanted to attack Lu Zheng again on a whim?
"Zheng'er, now Jiangnan relies on the Lu family, and the Lu family relies on you! It is not an exaggeration to say that now the whole Dakang is watching you, and you are on the cusp of the storm. I have to say that this situation is very difficult, slightly. Mistakes may be overwhelming. Have you figured out how to deal with the current situation?" Lu Shan said, his expression serious and worried.
Lu Zheng said: "The current Dakang is no longer what it used to be. The situation in Dakang is torn apart. Even if your majesty is united, he does not have enough strength. Under such circumstances, his life in Jiangnan is unsteady, and he can understand the troubles all day long.
In the current situation, I shouldn’t stay in the south of the Yangtze River for too long. The so-called die from the inside and live from the outside. If the Nanfu Army can fight and I will lead the Nanfu Army to march north, it may be an opportunity! Apart from this, I really can't think of any better opportunities! "
Lu Shanchang's face was gloomy, and he said, "My Lu family has been working hard for the royal family for more than a hundred years, and I still haven't received much favor! Now it is a troubled time, and the world may be even more chaotic right now. By then..."
Lu Zheng's expression changed slightly, and he said, "Grandfather, what you said is a reminder! Now when the major families are really using people and soldiers, I am afraid that more than the Lu family understands the principle of internal death. In this case, Cao Weiming and Zhao Chongqian Staying in Jiangnan is probably not what they want!
Now the Land of Two Rivers has been hit, and the court has not sent an envoy to comfort him. I will write to your Majesty tomorrow, and I intend to send Cao Weiming as a comforter to comfort Lianghe! "
Lu Zheng paused, and then said: "It just so happened that Su Zhi came back from Lianghe, and the two went back and forth, intersecting each other, just enough to prevent the land of the two rivers from falling into the enemy's hands."
Lu Shanchang smiled while rubbing his palms, and said, "Yes, Zheng'er, it's still your brain turning fast! It's so wonderful that you are offering this hand!"
Lu Zheng said again: "Now that the Jiangnan is in crisis, there is Huainan Road to the east of Jiangnan, and Lingnan Road to the south. These two roads also have military soldiers. It happens that Jin Shangshu can summon Huainan and Lingnan’s military soldiers in the name of the Ministry of War. Come to Jiangnan to **** him, what does this grandfather of Zhezi think?"
Lu Shan said: "Okay, very good! Zheng'er can think of the two discounts, which is enough to show that you are extraordinary. These two discounts should be able to temporarily ensure that they are safe for the time being. Hey, the old man really hopes to be in the cabinet!"
After the exchange between Lu Shanchang and Lu Zheng was completed, it didn't take long for the palace to pass on the decree, and Lu Shanchang entered the cabinet to worship as a cabinet assistant, a bachelor of Wuyingdian.
In addition, Gu Tiansheng of the Gu family also joined the cabinet, and worshipped the Wenhuadian bachelor. The top figures of the two major families in the south of the Yangtze River were like the cabinet and became prime ministers. This news spread and Jinling shocked.
There were two more prime ministers in the cabinet, and the size of the cabinet suddenly swelled. On the day when Lu Shanchang and Gu Tiansheng joined the cabinet, the official secretary, Lu Zheng, asked the court to send imperial envoys and comfort envoys to Lianghe. Lu Zheng suggested that Cao Weiming, Shangshu from the Ministry of Households, patrolled Lianghe for imperial envoys to appease the victims of the Lianghe!
The cabinet received the Zhezi, after deliberation, immediately voted to approve, Zhezi was sent to the palace, and the Emperor Xinde again closed the door to practice, Zhezi was approved by Feng Gonggong, and Cao Weiming was immediately named the imperial commissioner, and the two rivers were drawn up. Row.
Then, Lu Zheng went to the fold again, and wanted to ask the court to order the Huainan Road and Lingnan Road to send 30,000 soldiers into the south of the Yangtze River to fully enter the Jiangnan Nanfu Army to guard the Jiangnan court.
After Lu Zheng’s zhezi went up, he had to approve Hong Enzhun. The two imperial edicts flew to Huainan Road and Lingnan Dao, and the two imperial edicts reached the ground. There was no feedback from Huainan Road and Lingnan Dao, and Jinling people's hearts were floating...
In the Lu Mansion, Cao Weiming respectfully saluted Lu Zheng, saying: "Master Lu, this time Cao has the opportunity to tour north, this is an opportunity given by Master Lu! Cao has no retribution, but he can only live up to Lu. Your lord's hope for Cao!"
Lu Zheng said indifferently: "Master Cao is serious, what does Lu expect from adults? You and I are ministers together. Before, we killed enemies together and lived and died together. The people of Lianghe made a great deal for Dakang. Sacrifice, this time suffered another disaster, you Master Cao will not appease whom to appease?
If the people of Lianghe are stable, Gyeonggi will be stable, and Jiangnan will be stable too! Therefore, this time the task of the adults is also a long way to go, and the adults are so self-contained! "
Cao Weiming lowered his voice and said: "I am a land of two rivers, a fertile field of thousands of miles, and such a large area cannot be guarded. This time General Su went south, and the two rivers indeed have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses without a leader. As an imperial adult, Cao has the responsibility to general These soldiers and horses are well managed, and the military power must not be let go!"
Lu Zheng said: "Master Cao is quick to speak quickly. In this case, I hope that the adults can do what they say. But there is one more thing I want to ask the adults to keep in mind, that is, no matter what time, the adults should always remember that they are the ministers of Dakang. Throw your head and blood for Dakang, and you must not fall into the hatred of the ages just because of temporary small gains!"
Cao Weiming laughed and said, "Lord Lu, please rest assured, Cao has a sense of measure. However, Gyeonggi and Jingcheng cannot represent the emperor. The emperor of Dakang is in Jiangnan. I will follow the order of the emperor. No one else, etc. Decide the fate of my two rivers!"
After Cao Weiming finished speaking, he immediately saluted and said: "Well, today Cao and Mr. Lu will say it all! This is a long journey to the north, Cao didn't dare to neglect the emperor's life, and wished to go straight to the destination day and night. Today I won't say much, Cao said goodbye!"
Cao Weiming left Lu Mansion and went straight out of the city gate. Outside the city, Lu Zheng had already prepared two hundred guards for him. These guards were all riding horses. Cao Weiming also abandoned the sedan chair and rode straight to the north day and night. He knew very well in his heart that he would have one more chance to get the military power when he arrived at Lianghe a day earlier. Otherwise, when Long Zhaohuan in the capital made his move, his day lily would be cold!
On the third day of Cao Weiming’s capital immediately, Su Zhi got off the boat and got off the boat. He did not touch the ground. He did not enter the palace to ask for peace. He did not go to the new house that Su’s family had just bought in Jiangnan. Go straight to Lu Mansion to see Lu Zheng and go.
This time he was able to come back from Lianghe thanks to Lu Zheng, and Lu Zheng handed over the Nanfu Army to him, and he trusted him greatly! After experiencing the beating experience of Lianghe, Su Zhi had a very deep understanding of the role of military power. He knew in his heart that Lu Zheng had worked hard to build the Nanfu Army, and Lu Zheng handed the Nanfu Army to Su Zhi. This is a high degree of trust in him.
Whether Su Zhi can handle this errand well, whether he can give the Nanfu Army a strong combat capability, whether he can make the army loyal to Lu Zheng, this is a challenge for him, and it is also a huge opportunity.
When he arrived at the Lu Mansion, the boy came out to greet him. As soon as the two met, the boy said: "General Su came back, our son immediately sent General Cao to Lianghe. The tens of thousands of soldiers and horses left by General Su, don’t worry about the dragon without a leader. !"
Su Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then clapped his hands: "That's really great! Only Cao Weiming can control the situation. Master Lu is still very good, and I am very admired!"
"General Su has passed the award. I am always a ideology of improvisation. Fortunately, the DPRK can pass through. If not, the situation in Lianghe may be even more chaotic!" Lu Zheng walked out from the inside with a smile.
Su Zhi hurriedly knelt on one knee and said loudly: "The last general Su Zhi has seen Master Lu!"
Lu Zheng smiled and said: "General Su is polite, do you and I still use such a polite way? This time you can come back and let us have a major captain in the Southern Army. It can be said that we have solved our big problem!
I know you are coming to me. I have already asked the cook to prepare the banquet. The cook in Beijing is sure to suit your appetite. After eating and drinking, I will take you to Liuhe. Now that the barracks over there have been set up, we are waiting for you as the coach to take office! "
Su Zhi was stunned for a moment, and said, "That's great! I'm worried about how to start the job!" Su Zhi said that, but he was very shocked. According to Lu Zheng's arrangement, Su Zhi was even surprised. There is no need to report to the Ministry of War. What does this mean?
This shows that the Nanfu Army is not an army of the imperial court, but an army built by Lu Zheng. The other generals of this army are also personally selected by Lu Zheng, and most of them are already in place. Only Su Zhi is in place. Nanfu The army brand can be erected.
Su Zhi went to Liuhe first, then went to the treasure of the Ministry of War, and then faced the saint. This process is slightly reversed, and the nature is completely different. Su Zhi has to admire the superb methods of Lu Zheng. The future Jiangnan court is probably destined to return to Jiangnanlu. Home now.
Su Zhi and Lu Zheng drank, accompanied by a boy. The two drank three rounds. Su Zhi said, "My brother is going to Jiangnan this time, hey, I know about him, and my grandfather also knows! Youngsters don’t know how to feel sad. Now it’s the year of no confusion, but I want to make progress, Master Lu, what do you think?"
Lu Zheng said: "At this time, it is difficult to say clearly. If Master Su wants to work in Jinling, it is now an opportunity. It is just that Jinling is now gathering talents, and the competition that Su Master faces is also fierce!"
Su Zhi said, "Uncle Xinghai still hopes that Master Su can enter the sixth department. At this time, Uncle Xinghai is beyond the reach of the capital, and you may finally get rid of Master Lu!"
Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter, and said, "Master Su really has time to work. Since Su Xiang has ordered, how can I not do my best? It just happened that the household was vacant, so I would recommend Master Su. If Master Su can The household entrance department is also a great event for the Su family, a great event!"
Lu Zheng's mood suddenly became better. It was the most appropriate way to finalize Su Qing's affairs in this way. As long as Su Qing had the support of the Su family behind him, he wouldn't have to worry about losing his footing, and Lu Zheng could feel confident and bold. The recommendation of Su Qing will not fall into a situation of isolation and helplessness.
