Lu Wenyuan came out of the side hall, went around to a place where there was no one, and hurriedly turned out Fan Zhefu's recital to take a look, only to see the four-character Zhu Criticism written hastily at the end: "This matter is suspended." Lu Wenyuan's heart was relieved, and he almost laughed out loud.

When he returned to the cabinet, he showed the piece to Fan Zhefu. Fan Zhefu frowned and didn't speak for a long time, and after a while, he questioned him: "Didn't this official let you watch the emperor's approval?" Why is this the result now? ”

Lu Wenyuan pretended to be aggrieved and said: "The lower officials are watching, but the emperor means so, and the lower officials don't dare to say more." ”

Fan Zhefu was upset, and reprimanded Lu Wenyuan twice, but he couldn't, so he let him go, and sat behind the table with a sigh, thinking that if he wanted to kill Yan Yong this time, I was afraid that he would have to find another way. I was out of my mind for a long time, but I heard someone sneer "hey".

Fan Zhefu was annoyed in his heart, raised his eyes to look for it, and saw that it was a rugged man in his thirties, dressed in a three-grade civil official brocade robe, pulling the corners of his mouth and glancing at himself with slanted eyes.

Fan Zhefu was already angry, but he was even more angry at the moment, and dropped the piece in his hand with a "snap", and asked sharply: "Who are you?" Dare to make fun of this official! ”

The rugged man of the three grades was not in a hurry, came to Fan Zhefu's table, clasped his fists and said: "Liang Youqing, the servant of the official department, has seen Master Fan. ”

Fan Zhefu said with a gloomy face: "What are you sneering at?" ”

Liang Youqing pulled the corners of his mouth slightly and said, "Xiaguan is laughing at the unladylike use of adults." ”

Fan Zhefu was stunned for a moment and asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Liang Youqing asked rhetorically: "That Lu Wenyuan, how much do adults know about him?" ”

It turned out that this Liang Youqing came to the cabinet to do business today, thinking that when Lu Wenyuan first came to the ministry, he looked at Lu Wenyuan unpleasantly, only saying that this person was born with demonic eyebrows and fox eyes, and he was clearly a man, but he was even more delicate and weak than a woman, and he was really a boy and a woman, which was disgusting. and heard that he was not treated by the saints today, so he was even more contemptuous, and always found every opportunity to get along with him on weekdays, either sending him to serve tea and pour water, laying paper and grinding, or squeezing everywhere between words.

However, Lu Wenyuan only blindly kept a low profile and did not bother with him, Liang Youqing couldn't make a slap, so he had to be secretly bored, and then saw that Lu Wenyuan was promoted from the head of the Ministry of Officials to the head of the Ministry of Officials overnight, and he was on an equal footing with himself, and he didn't dare to make another mistake. Fortunately, Lu Wenyuan is not a person who must be compared with each other, and he will take revenge if he has revenge, and after he was promoted, he focused on official affairs and did not intend to be sad with Liang Youqing.

But some people are born to be narrow and jealous, you are tolerant of him, but he may not accept your affection, Liang Youqing has been secretly dissatisfied in his heart since Lu Wenyuan was promoted by Fan Zhefu, thinking that he is not worse than Lu Wenyuan, why did Fan Zhefu choose him instead of himself, and now when he saw this situation, he took it to heart and hurriedly spoke out to provoke.

Fan Zhefu frowned and pondered when he heard this, Liang Youqing saw that there was a dislike between the two people, and hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot: "Does Lord Fan trust him so much?" Let him go alone to give the emperor a recital, then what did he say in front of the emperor, who knows? Can you guarantee that he won't persuade the emperor not to pass the guò cantata? ”

Fan Zhefu sighed in his heart, only said that he never thought of this, in the past, he took the piece to the emperor for approval, and the emperor often agreed without looking at it, but now why not only did he see it, but also had an unprecedented objection? In addition, Lu Wenyuan had privately taken Shen Lun to see Yan Yong before, which was indeed a little suspicious, and now if he was in the way, it was not impossible. But that Yan Yong once caused him to lose his champion, such a vendetta, why did Lu Wenyuan help him? I thought about it, but I just couldn't figure it out, and my face became more and more gloomy.

Seeing this, Liang Youqing became more and more confident, and continued: "The adults know him again, but do any subordinates understand him?" He and his own officials are both the left and right attendants of the ministry, and they work together on weekdays, and even the table is adjacent. ”

Fan Zhefu was really moved by his words, squinted his eyes slightly and asked, "Then what kind of person is Lu Wenyuan?" ”

Liang Youqing sneered: "According to the lower officials, Lu Wenyuan is a person who refuses to attach himself to adults!" ”

Fan Zhefu's heart was shocked, but he refused to admit it on his face: "You provoke the relationship between this official and Lu Wenyuan so much, I don't know what the benefit is?" ”

Liang Youqing hugged his fists and said: "The lower officials are just thinking about the adults, and they don't want you to be deceived by Lu Wenyuan anymore." If you don't believe what the lower official said, you might as well give it a try. ”

Fan Zhefu said: "How to try the law? ”

Liang Youqing said: "What did the adults promote Lu Wenyuan for? ”

Fan Zhefu secretly thought that it was not to install him in the ministry to facilitate the promotion of his own henchmen and cut off Yan Yong's henchmen.

Liang Youqing saw him groaning, so he said: "It's inconvenient for Master Fan to say that it doesn't matter, but as long as you send him to do what you want to do, you can know." If he does not hesitate to do it, Lord Fan will be able to use people in the future, on the contrary, if he hesitates and shirks in every way, I believe that there is no need for the lower officials to say, and the adults will know what to do. ”

Fan Zhefu secretly agreed in his heart, thinking that after he accepted him as a fellow party, Yan Yong was imprisoned for the edict, and he has been busy since then, but he has never taken care of using his position to install party henchmen, but now that he thinks about it, it is really necessary to try.

Liang Youqing added: "But the lower officials still have to remind the adults that the things that the adults sent Lu Wenyuan to do need to be difficult, otherwise it can be done simply, and it will be meaningless." ”

Fan Zhefu thought so.

In the next few days, Fan Zhefu drafted a document to depose Shen Lun and sent it to the ministry, asking Lu Wenyuan to go to Fu Qian to sign and seal. Lu Wenyuan stared at the document for a long time, and sure enough, he said: "My lord, Shen Lun is the imperial history of the left capital of the Imperial Palace, the official residence is the second grade, and the position transfer of officials above the third rank of the imperial court needs to be consulted by the emperor in advance. ”

Fan Zhefu sneered in his heart, but said: "You also know that whether the emperor asks for instructions or not, it's just a formality, it's useless, and besides, the official promoted you in the first place, isn't it because you are in the ministry and it's convenient to do things?" Now you won't even refuse to help with that, will you? ”

Lu Wenyuan lowered his head and hesitated. Fan Zhefu had already tried the result, and he didn't want to say much to him, so he threw the document on the case casually and said, "You can do it yourself." Then he turned and walked away.

Lu Wenyuan couldn't sit still all day because of this, and the next morning, he found the Metropolitan Procuratorate and told Shen Lun about the matter, asking him to think of countermeasures as soon as possible, and he could delay it for a day. However, a few days passed, but Fan Zhefu did not come to urge, and Lu Wenyuan continued to pretend to be deaf and dumb, but he didn't know. When cleaning up the table on this day, he was even more moved, secretly tucked the paper into a pile of waste paper, and threw it away as garbage when others did not pay attention to it, only waiting for Fan Zhefu to come next time, with the excuse of "losing it", and then delaying it for a day and a half.

But where can this qiē escape Liang Youqing's eyes, he has long regarded himself as Fan Zhefu's eyeliner in the ministry, Lu Wenyuan just finished throwing away the garbage, he turned out the paper document from it, and entered the cabinet to ask to see Fan Zhefu.

Fan Zhefu was in the office, listening to Liang Youqing looking for him, although he was a little puzzled, but he still asked people to bring him in, Liang Youqing took out the stained document to show him, and said: "Lord Fan, the person surnamed Lu is doing this, it is clear that it is not for you, Xia Guan really doesn't know, what are you still keeping him for?" ”

Fan Zhefu sighed: "This official just can't understand why he wants to help Yan Yong and others who hurt him so much." He sighed, and suddenly said in a firm tone: "That's it." In any case, this man is broken. Lord Liang, haven't you always been willing to be used by your own officials? That's good, this official will give you a task, I just hope you don't learn from Lu Wenyuan, it's good to live up to this official. ”

Liang Youqing clenched his fists and smiled: "The lower official will definitely live up to the trust of the adults." ”

In the past few days, Lu Wenyuan felt that something was wrong as soon as he entered the lobby of the Ministry of Officials, his desk had obviously been cleaned up, the documents were neatly stacked into several stacks, the brushes were arranged on the pen holder in turn, the ink in the inkstone was freshly ground, and it still exuded the fragrance of ink, and even the stool was carefully rubbed, which was clean and clean, and the light could be seen.

Lu Wenyuan looked around suspiciously, he couldn't think of anyone who would be so kind, and he didn't have a plan in his heart, but he saw Liang Youqing coming in from the outer hall, holding a cup of tea in his hand, his eyes lit up when he saw him, and he said loudly: "Oh, Lord Lu came early today, is he thirsty?" Come, drink tea, drink tea. As he spoke, the man was already in front of him, and handed over a hot cup of tea with both hands.

Lu Wenyuan was taken aback by him, I don't know what kind of trouble this is, it's rare not to show your face on weekdays, how can you be so attentive today, I was very puzzled in my heart, but because of etiquette, I had to reach out and take the tea and put it on the table.

Seeing this, Liang Youqing was even more attentive, squeezed the smile on his face and squeezed it, nodded and said, "Has Lord Lu had breakfast?" If it is useless, the subordinates will immediately buy it for the adults. ”

Lu Wenyuan was even more puzzled, thinking that Liang Youqing had never been on good terms with him, and he had always been incompatible, but now there was such a big change overnight, he was afraid that he would not be well-intentioned, so he waved his hand and said, "No need." ”

Who knew that Liang Youqing was pestering himself and said, "Does the adult have any other instructions?" Please do what you ask, and your subordinates will do it immediately. ”

He was one subordinate after another, and his voice was very loud, and those colleagues who were originally buried in official duties were so troubled by him that they raised their heads to look at this side. Lu Wenyuan was a little embarrassed, and couldn't guess what he wanted for a while, so he had to respond to all changes with no change, and said lightly: "Lord Liang is too humble, you and I are at the same level, why bother to call ourselves subordinates." If Lord Liang is free, he might as well spend more time on official business, and Lu Moujie cloth clothes, so don't bother Lord Liang. After speaking, he sat down on the seat, spread paper and inkstone, and buried himself in official business.

Liang Youqing couldn't see his half-dead face the most, and he hated it at the moment, but he remembered Fan Zhefu's entrustment, so he had to smile and say: "Lord Lu's lesson is that his subordinates will do it, and they will do it." He sat down and looked at the paperwork pretendically.

During this period, Lu Wenyuan went in and out several times because of official business, and Liang Youqing also took the opportunity to get up and pour tea and water for him, and tidy up pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Lu Wenyuan knew it, but he only pretended not to know, he only did his own thing without humility or arrogance, and he didn't touch the tea in his hand, and he clearly drew a clear line. Liang Youqing secretly held his breath, but it was inconvenient for him to attack, so he only increased his strength between movements, and cleaned up and chopped. Seeing that Lu Wenyuan had entered Fu Qian's court to do business, he would not come out for a while, so he lowered his voice and asked him: "Lord Liang, this Lu Wenyuan is at the same level as you, why do you bother him like this." ”
