Chapter 497: Into the Straight
"When I got to the saint and looked at the scenery, it was much more difficult than staying in the Hanlin Courtyard. ”
After returning to Zhiyuan, Lu Yun sighed and told Lu Shuo first.
Lu Yun has been by Emperor Hui Chong's side for many years, and no one knows Emperor Hui Chong's character better than him, so Lu Shuo listened very seriously.
"Less heads, more practical things, what my father has explained in the past, my son dare not forget. ”
The past is uncertain, and Lu Shuo doesn't know whether he will face glory or danger in the future, but life itself is so impermanent, you can't be too forceful.
Lu Yun nodded when he heard this, and greatly appreciated Lu Shuo's mentality, he said: "You don't have to panic, you are not the only attendant officer around the saint, and when I got the news today, I have already asked my old friend Gu Xiancheng to mention you from the side, and I don't think anything will go wrong." ”
This Gu Xiancheng and Lu Shuo know each other, and he has become a talented young man, and now he is not confused, and he has a lot of friendship with Lu Yun. It's a pity that because of worshipping Uncle Wei as the same teacher, the Wei family has been reluctant after losing power, and has been steadily pressed by Gao Zhuo.
It wasn't until Gao Zhuo declined a few years ago that he entered the eyes of Emperor Hui Chong and was able to serve directly.
Like Lu Shuo, he is also a Japanese official, but he pays attention to his qualifications, and now Gu Xiancheng, like Lu Yun, is quite valued by Emperor Hui Chong, if nothing else, it will be a matter of time before he enters the cabinet.
Lu Shuo's brows furrowed, "This person has been with Uncle Wei, is he reliable?"
The situation in the DPRK is difficult and dangerous, and it is impossible to distinguish who is good and bad, and the only difference is only position and interests. People in this era attach great importance to the friendship between master and apprentice, and the relationship between teachers and students like this is even stronger, even if the Wei family has lost power for a long time, but the King of Jin is still there, it is difficult to guarantee that this person has no bad intentions.
Lu Shuo was very pleased with Lu Shuo's question, which showed that Lu Shuo was really adapted to the atmosphere of intrigue in the officialdom, and he didn't have to worry that Lu Shuo would be confused by hidden traps at a young age.
"Don't worry, this person is in the same department as his father, and he has always had a good relationship. The reason why he visited Uncle Wei back then was just a coincidence, and the two did not have a deep friendship. Before Wei Shutong could appoint Gu Xiancheng, he was involved in the murder of the prince, Gu Xiancheng was buried for so many years, purely because he suffered from the pond fish. ”
It turns out that there is such a past.
Lu Shuo put his mind at ease, as long as he trusted.
The father and son didn't talk for long, and the time was not early, and Lu Shuo returned to the Yayun Pavilion.
The lights were on in the room, and Yuan Wenyi was sitting on the floor embroidering things, holding a court robe in his hand, which was Lu Shuo's official uniform, and there was a flat one on the vacant seat next to him.
Lu Shuo didn't bother her, walked over gently, and took a closer look, it turned out that the one on the collapse was Yuan Wenyi's seven-pin peace suit.
When Lu Shuo approached, Yuan Wenyi had already reacted, and when he saw Lu Shuo looking through her command uniform, he couldn't help but put down the official uniform that was being embroidered in his hand and laughed softly.
She walked up to Lu Shuo and explained: "This edict obeys me to marry, and I haven't worn it yet, this time on the Holy Thousand Autumn Festival, all the officials and relatives of the family will enter the palace to ask the queen for peace, and it is finally useful." ”
The Qianqiu Festival is getting closer and closer, and Lu Shuo thinks of the things reported back by the four institutes, and his heart is becoming more and more uneasy.
After this Qianqiu Festival, the fate of many people is afraid that they will change dramatically, and it is really hard to say where the road ahead of the Jingguo Mansion is.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing that Lu Shuo was depressed, instead of being happy because of her words, his face was full of sorrow, and Yuan Wenyi was also affected and asked with concern.
Lu Shuo shook his head, thought about it, and still said a rough word to Yuan Wenyi.
"I didn't tell you in the past, because I thought that you and your mother were family members of the inner house, and they would not be affected by this matter, but this time you want to enter the palace, I'm afraid it will be ......."
Lu Shuo didn't finish speaking, and he didn't know what this trip to the palace would be.
Yuan Wenyi held her hand and persuaded her: "It's a disaster that can't be avoided, but we know about the conspiracy of King Jin and Su Cheng in advance, and we are already luckier than many people." ”
When he said this, his heart beat a drum.
Lu Shuo had also revealed some words about this matter before, but this time he heard Lu Shuo say it in such detail, Yuan Wenyi was very shocked in his heart.
But she has always been tenacious, Lu Shuo is worried about her, but she can't increase his pressure with a sad face anymore.
That's true!
Lu Shuo nodded and said, "Anyway, be careful." When that day comes, my father and I will arrange for you and your mother and grandmother to be around you, but when my grandmother is old, and my mother has never supported my father's adventures, these things have never been mentioned to them, and you are the only one...... We young couples, I don't want to hide it from you, so that your eyes are dark, and I won't even have a chance to deal with it at that time. ”
In this era, the wife is the husband and the outside, and the officialdom is outside, and men rarely discuss with women, Lu Shuo's honesty and trust made Yuan Wenyi feel at ease, and she couldn't help but hold Lu Shuo's hand.
Lu Shuo held it back and said again, "No matter what happens at that time, your safety is the most important, don't worry about the sidelines, just guard yourself." ”
The second day was not long in coming.
Before dawn, Lu Shuo went to get the tooth card early, and after the officials who participated in the early dynasty entered the palace, they followed into the palace gate with the tooth card in their hand.
The tooth card clearly states the rank, position, rank, and errand of the official.
For example, Lu Shuo's small wooden plaque reads, the official rank undertaker, the official Hanlin Academy editor, and the errand Zhiwen Yuan Pavilion Sutra Banquet Hall.
The official rank of Cheng Lang is Lu Shuo's official rank of the current seven-rank scattered official, and if he passes the three-year examination, he can be promoted to Ru Linlang, and like the Cheng Lang, Ru Linlang is also a loose official.
However, the scattered officials in Daqi are just a kind of honorary title, the so-called honorary title, which sounds good, does not have any substantive power, and is mostly a means for the Son of Heaven to reward meritorious officials, and it is of no use to them as incumbent officials.
As for the official title, it is edited by the seven grades of the Hanlin Academy, and now although Lu Shuo has left the Hanlin Academy and directly entered the service, the official title remains the same, but the place of service has changed.
And errands are the most important thing, what kind of errands you do, what kind of people you deal with, determines how much power you have, Lu Shuo is now in the Zhiwenyuan Pavilion Banquet Hall, although he is only a small official, his power is not small at all, and he is an existence that cannot be ignored.
Straight is to serve straight, specifically refers to being an errand in the palace, and in the yamen, such as the six departments, it is used to be an errand.
A straight word explains Lu Shuo's errand, of course, this errand is not to be a father-in-law, but a Wenchen who is stationed in Ouchi, and he is the "imperial division".
The eighteen yamen in Jingshili are all located outside the palace, and there is a unified yamen residence, but the cabinet and the office of the six departments are located in the palace, accompanied by the Son of Heaven day and night.
After Gong Ban checked Lu Shuo's small wooden plaque, he said respectfully: "It turned out to be Lord Lu, please inside." ”
