Chapter 148 is a mess

Jade Cicada is a generation of famous Confucians of the Dazong Dynasty. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info He was the enlightenment teacher of the first emperor, he was very knowledgeable, but he was arrogant and did not like to be an official. Therefore, after the first emperor sat down in the country, he lived in seclusion to the Jade Void Temple and cultivated in the Qing Dynasty, and did not go out all year round. It is said that the first emperor pleaded with him many times to go out of the mountain again to give enlightenment to the three princes, that is, the current holy gods, but he refused without hesitation.

The first emperor once personally took the three princes to the Jade Void Temple, but he still did not let the Jade Cicada change his mind. However, for the sake of the third prince's talent and righteousness, he promised to ask him for advice if he had any questions, but there was only one chance a year.

In addition to Qing Xiu, Jade Cicada also loves to put away the world's only books. After he heard that the old lady of the Lu family had a copy of the "Orchid Pavilion Preface" in his hand, he once went out to ask him for it, but the old lady Lu was also a stubborn lover of books, and he was reluctant to use this book. But the jade cicada did not continue to entangle, just put down the words, no matter when, as long as he took this book to find him in the view, he would meet the requests of the visitors.

And now, Lu Sheng asked to take the post of prefect of Jiangzhou, so he directly asked people to send the "Lanting Order" directly to Yuxuguan. He believes in the character of the jade cicada, and believes that the original promise will still be effective. I also believe that my father's spirit in heaven will understand what he is doing.

"Sir. When Lu Qiu didn't call him "adult", he put himself in the position of a loyal servant of the Lu family, cheeky, relying on the old and selling the old, hoping that Lu Sheng would listen to his persuasion, "The current Jiangzhou prefect, Lord Lin, has no merit or fault in this position, and there are still two months before the date of resignation." Although two months is not a long time, it relies on the power and prestige of Master Fang in the court, as well as the relationship with the teachers and students of today's saints. As long as the adults open their mouths, he will definitely seek this position for the adults. What's more・・・・・ what's more, if Master Fang knew that you went to ask Mr. Jade Cicada, his heart ・・・・・・ ・・・・・・ your career in the future" When it came to his mouth, he didn't say anything, just looked at Lu Sheng expectantly, believing that he understood what he meant, and hoped that he could change his mind.

Lu Sheng lifted his eyelids and looked at Lu Qiu's nervous and anxious face calmly. After a while, he sighed, lowered his eyelids, and said in a calm but somewhat melancholy voice: "Lu Qiu, you have been by my side for many years, and you also experienced the things in Huzhou with me back then. If the old man and his wife had not spoken out to help each other, I am afraid that I would not even be qualified for the imperial examination, so how could I talk about my career? I sought the post of prefect of Jiangzhou, and I wanted to be foolproof. In this way, I can do my best to protect that child, which can be regarded as a little reciprocation for the kindness of the year. ”

"Master・・・・・・" Lu Qiu still wanted to open his mouth to persuade again, but was interrupted by Lu Sheng's wave, and commanded without doubt, "Okay, you leave immediately, hurry up and do it." ”

"Yes, the old slave will definitely take care of this matter. Lu Qiu knew that he couldn't change Lu Sheng's mind, so he didn't continue to ink, took the letter and solemnly assured.

After Lu Qiu walked out of the door, Lu Sheng stood in front of the window, looking at the mottled shadow under the tree.

"Sir. Chang Sui knocked on the door and walked in, saw Lu Sheng looking over, and asked in a low voice, "Is the guest in the front hall going over to see him, or let them go back?"

"Let them go back. Lu Sheng instructed lightly, and as soon as Chang Sui came out of the door, Lu Sheng called out to him again, and said in a calm tone, "I'll go over and see you." ”

"Yes. Chang Sui respectfully stepped aside, and then followed Lu Sheng to the front hall. The two people in the front hall had already drunk five cups of tea, and when they saw Lu Sheng coming back, they hurriedly got up to greet each other, and they didn't dare to have the slightest dissatisfaction on their faces.

"Oops, sit, sit, sit. Lu Sheng had a warm smile on his face, he didn't see anything unusual, and greeted warmly, "Come on, serve new tea to the two guests,"

Uh, Zhou Dahai and Rong Zhijin glanced at each other sadly, they had already drunk five cups of tea, and they couldn't stand it anymore. But I didn't know when Lu Sheng would come back, and I didn't dare to change my clothes halfway. If you continue to drink it now, you will definitely be suffocated. But in the face of Lu Sheng's plain and gentle smile, he didn't dare to say anything if he refused, so he could only endure it stubbornly.

Lu Sheng's conversation seemed to be very high, and he chatted while beckoning the two of them to tea. This made Zhou Dahai and Rong Zhijin bitter, the two of them were uncomfortable, worried that they would accidentally make a fool of themselves and lose face in front of Lord Lu, and on the other hand, they had to deal with Lu Sheng's questioning carefully. For a while, I was bitter in my heart.

Seeing the two of them wiping their sweat with handkerchiefs non-stop, Lu Sheng felt a greasy taste in his heart, and waved his hand to let the two leave. The little guy came over to clean up the tea sets, and Lu Sheng pointed to the two sets of tea sets in disgust and said, "Take them and throw them away!"

Zhou Dahai and Rong Zhijin left quickly as relieved, and after a while of comfort, they remembered that they only thought about how to deal with it carefully just now, and completely forgot the fundamental purpose of today. The matter of connecting the wind banquet has not been decided. Looking at the closed door, it was like a barrier separating the two of them.

After a moment of daze, both of them shook their heads in annoyance and left dejectedly.

A few days later, Zhou Ji Workshop took over the errand of Qincha again. Zhou Dahai's hanging heart finally let go, and he began to get busy again with good spirits, and the Zhou family was a happy scene again.

The Rong family was gloomy, and Rong Zhijin never found a chance to talk to Lu Sheng and ask him to deal with the eldest master of the Rong family. For this reason, he also came to Zhou's house many times, hoping that Zhou Dahai could deliver a few words for him. But Zhou Dahai handed over the words twice, and before he finished speaking, he was blocked back by Lu Sheng. For the sake of his own future, he didn't dare to do it anymore and continued to mention the affairs of the capital.

Although Rong Zhijin was in a hurry, he didn't dare to say anything. The Zhou family is thriving now, but the future of the Rong family is unknown, so now it is absolutely impossible to offend the Zhou family. But the house leak happened to rain overnight, and the silver and rubies that Rong Zhijin sent to the capital for dotting were stolen. When Rong Zhijin heard the news, his eyes went dark and he almost fainted. Sitting on the chair, his mouth opened and closed, he didn't say a word for a long time, and he suddenly aged more than ten years.

But Master Rong is too important to the entire Rong family, and he must save him from fire and water no matter what. But the last silver has almost emptied the Rong family, and there is really no higher silver in the account. There was no way, Mrs. Rong's Lu sold most of her dowry and sent the silver she had gathered to the capital.

This time, the vitality of the Rong family was greatly damaged, but it still looked like a flowery and infinite scenery on the face.

"Master, will the Rong family's silver be sent to the capital this time?" After reporting the situation outside, the chief asked the contemplative Lu Sheng with the courage to do so.

"Yes. Lu Sheng replied without thinking about it. "Why? There are two if there is one, and the other party can stop it once, and it can stop the second time, and the third time. Chang Sui asked suspiciously.

With a signboard smile on Lu Sheng's face, he explained: "When there is no hope, you can only make people anxious. But when there is hope, watching it shattered is the most ruthless revenge. This kid of the Lu family has enough brains, ruthless hearts, and spicy methods!" Thinking of the news he got, Lu Zhendong also went to Jiangzhou, and seemed to live there permanently, and he felt that his decision was right.

The master of the Yu family is a businessman, since that child provoked the lintel of the Yu family, he will naturally meet the Lu family in the future, and he will be guarding by his side, at least he can take care of her for her. After thinking about it, since I was leaving, it was time to collect the net that I had sown during this time.

"Master・・・・・・" Seeing Lu Sheng's fingers rhythmically tapping on the armrest of the chair, he knew that the master was thinking about something!

There was news in the capital that Rong Zhixiang, the eldest man of the Rong family, was a member of the left of the Ministry of Officials, and he was kept in the outer room, and all the human and material evidence was complete, and he was convicted of the crime, dismissed from his official position, and never hired. Sun Qi of the Ministry of Officials was nepotistic, connived at the arrogance of his wife and family, and was punished for two years, and will be the head of the Ministry of Officials, in charge of file registration. In other words, from now on, he can only sit on a cold bench in the archives of the ministry, and the world outside has nothing to do with him at all.

At this time, Chang Sui suddenly realized what Lu Sheng meant by the sentence "gave you hope and shattered hope". Rong Zhijin watched the silver thrown out go down the drain, which made people vomit blood even more than the silver being stolen.

Of course, that's all for later. At present, the most lively topic in the streets and alleys of Xuzhou City, teahouses and wine shops is still the Zhou family. Different from the previous scenery, the current Zhou family has collapsed.

Some people reported that Zhou Ji Workshop did not have high-quality silk thread when weaving, and it was shoddy. Of course, Zhou Dahai shouted injustice, and Lord Lu was aware of everything, and immediately led someone to move the cloth woven by the Zhou family to the street and personally inspect it in front of everyone. I opened a few pieces of cloth and examined them carefully, and they were all woven with fine silk threads. Just when Zhou Dahai breathed a sigh of relief, everyone also felt a false alarm.

Suddenly, in the middle part of a piece of cloth that was shaken open, a problem was discovered. Originally, the cloth wrapped around it was woven with the finest silk threads, while the lower ones were woven with inferior silk threads.

Zhou Dahai stumbled to the ground, looking at the cloth in front of him with a dead face, his fingers trembling, and his lips trembling. Until he was dragged away, he didn't understand what was going on.

Lu Sheng squinted his eyes slightly, looking at Zhou Dahai expressionlessly At the beginning, he was emotional, blushing and shouting grievances. Then when he thought it was a false alarm, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but this breath had just been brought up, and he hadn't completely spit it out, and the truth in front of him made his face look like ashes. A sneering smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and he flicked his sleeves and left.

The Zhou family's couch is over, but the people in the other two rooms of the Zhou family have their own thoughts, and they don't want to contribute money or effort. On the grounds that Kong Hai wanted to conduct scientific research and needed to study quietly, Sanfang mobilized the whole family and moved to Zhuangzi in the suburbs.

Although the second room also has its own small abacus, it is still kind, and it has not left all of it, and some silver has been spent. Green Yi was quite kind, took his private money and left the Zhou family. Liu washed his face with tears all day long, and suddenly became more than ten years old, completely missing the appearance of the noble lady in the past.

The Lu family supported her and asked her to go to the Fang family. As long as the old lady of the Fang family said a word, this matter couldn't be easier. Fortunately, a few days later, a word came from the yamen, saying that it was for the Zhou family's last errand to be done carefully, and this time it was discovered in time, and if it did not cause a catastrophe, the death penalty could be avoided, but the living crime could not be escaped. Zhou Dahai was scolded with a cane and fined 13,000 taels.

After Liu heard the words of the servant, he was dizzy again. While he was glad that Zhou Dahai was finally saved, he wondered how the people in the yamen could be so clear about the money at home? Wasn't it 13,000 taels in the box she put next to her pillow?

Zhou Dahai felt that he had fallen apart, and the twenty boards and boards all fell on his body, and they hurt solidly. You don't have to look at him to know that his ass must be blooming. Sweat was raining, tears and snot were sluggling his face, his gray hair was unkempt, and in a blur, he saw a pair of black boots in front of him.

A gloomy voice sounded over his head, "You should be glad that the child is alive and well now, otherwise, I want your entire Zhou family to accompany the funeral! Let you know the consequences of lust and perfidy. ”

The footsteps were getting farther and farther away, and Zhou Dahai was shaking more and more, and the cold voice just now seemed to come from hell, making him creepy and physically and mentally exhausted. But his mind was extremely clear, he knew that the "child" he was referring to was Lan Xin, and he also knew who the person just now was. But everything today can only rot to the stomach, and he can't reveal a word.

Someone lifted him up, and he was shaken and dizzy. In a daze, he seemed to understand the special nature of the Fang family to Lan Xin, and he also seemed to understand the strange expression on the face of Lord Lu Sheng Lu when he mentioned the marriage of the Zhou family and the Rong family in the post house that day. The body shook more and more, and my mind was confused again, as if I couldn't understand anything.

After Zhou Dahai was carried back, he had a fever, and Lang Zhong invited one after another, but to no avail, and Liu was so anxious that his mouth was foaming. was in a hurry to go to the doctor, so he asked his eldest son Zhou Wenjin to go to the Rong family for help.

The Lu family immediately dropped the cup, and the Rong family was still in dire straits, how could there be anyone who was idle to take care of their family? He just ordered someone to open the warehouse, pack a few medicinal materials, and send Evian back.

In less than an hour, Evian returned. Come in and say hello to the Lu family. Lu Shi looked at the big grin sitting on the chair, drinking the best Tieguanyin with a "coo-dong coo", and after putting down the teacup, he picked up the dim sum next to him and feasted on it. While eating, he muttered: "Oh, the tea here is delicious, and the snacks are refreshing." It's not like my mother's place, it's a mess. I went back for a long time, and those maids were like wood, with dead faces, and they didn't even know how to pour a cup of tea. ”

"Bang Dang!" Lu's favorite blue and white porcelain teacup is shattered.
