An ordinary person always needs something to fear, or to respect, or to admire, or to worship the goal.

Qian Yuan respected Tang Shunzhi, a contemporary master who went into battle in person, admired Yu Dayou, who was still injured and advanced towards the Japanese Kou, and admired Nie Bao who chose Songjiang deep in his heart.

But there was only one person Qian Yuan was afraid of, Lu Shusheng.

Of course, there is also respect in this fear...... However, Qian Yuan, who came to the door early the next morning, did not have the latter emotion in his heart.

"It's really amazing, they all say that the Huating Qian family is a hero again, and they all say that the Huating Qian family has a poetry and book heirloom, but at the right time there is a ...... who is proficient in the art of war."

"Heaven and Earth Monarch doesn't care about it, you still have the face to come to the door!?"

Lu Shusheng, who was sitting on the Taishi's chair, was obviously very well prepared, and the words of reprimand never stopped, and he even made a cup of tea in his hand to moisten his throat.

Hearing his uncle's ridicule yesterday, Qian Yuan knew that he would definitely be reprimanded today...... But it wasn't until this morning that Li Si, who stayed behind, whispered to him that before the Japanese invaded Songjiang, the two guards at home were ready to attack Lu Shusheng.

In the end, he still didn't start, because he was discovered by Lu Shusheng in advance...... Seeing the ropes and carriages prepared, the old man was so angry that he smoked.

It was a full three quarters of an hour before Qian Yuan, who had been trained to look like dirt, found an opportunity to interject.

"Boss, move to Hangzhou......"

"Thinking about running for your life again?" Lu Shusheng sneered.

"I'm not leaving."

"Huh?" Lu Shusheng's face softened, and he looked at Qian Yuan carefully, "What do you mean?" ”

"Shuangjiang Gong summoned the younger generations to sort out the documents with the army."

Lu Shusheng stroked his white beard and nodded repeatedly, "The old man has heard that you are in the internal affairs of the prime minister of Chongde County, and you are giving advice...... I have that qualification. ”

Qian Yuan said softly: "But the family wants to move to Hangzhou for refuge...... At least for two or three years, Songjiang will be the land of four wars, and gentlemen will not stand under the wall. ”

Glancing at Lu Shude next to him, Qian Yuan continued: "There are two men in the Lu family, and there are no heirs so far, how can the boss bear it? ”

"What if the old man refuses?"

Qian Yuan swallowed his saliva and didn't say a word.

"Or do you want to tie up the old man?" Lu Shusheng's anger has not subsided, "You are really capable, they all say that you are decisive in killing in Chongde County, searching for spies, and refusing villagers to enter the city, this set of play has been played on your own family!" ”

"Brother, Brother Yuan has good intentions." Lu Shude, who was glared at by Qian Yuan several times, cautiously persuaded: "Big deal...... Give him a few more questions...... Well, there are a few more ruthless pairs. ”

Qian Yuan's eyes widened, what the hell, this is the consolation you said you wanted?

"That's right." Lu Shusheng patted the table when he saw Qian Yuan's expression and said: "If you want to take the township exam next year, you will have six questions a day in the future, even if you follow the army, you can always find time to write." ”

Qian Yuan deliberately hesitated for a moment before reluctantly nodding his head, he had to let the old man breathe, besides, the implication was to agree to the move.

Seeing that the matter had been settled, Lu Shude coughed a few times and whispered: "Brother, Brother Yuan'er, those clansmen are also ......."

"By the way, there's one more thing." Lu Shusheng suddenly interrupted: "Five days ago, the daughters of the Zhang family came to visit and talked about Brother Yuan, you ......."

"The daughter of the Zhang family?" Qian Yuan blinked and didn't understand.

"Huating Zhang's family is also a local family, and Jian Angong was an orthodox thirteen-year jinshi back then...... This person is Zhang Ying. Lu Shusheng explained in detail: "Later, he successively served as the secretary of the criminal department and the secretary of the military department, and died in office in the second year of Hongzhi, and gave the prince Taibao. ”

Qian Yuan blinked again, is this because I want to get married?

Lu Shusheng continued: "Zhang Ying has a granddaughter, because she continued to keep filial piety for her grandfather, grandmother, and mother, until she was nineteen years old, she did not get married, and later married to the county as a continuation. ”

Qian Yuan narrowed his eyes and asked slowly, "Xu?" ”

"Not bad." Lu Shusheng looked at Qian Yuan calmly, "She is Xu Huating's current wife, and it was her younger siblings who came to visit five days ago." ”

Qian Yuan lowered his head to hide the chill in his eyes, "Does his younger brother and sister have a daughter?" ”

"Nope." Lu Shusheng said slowly: "But Xu Huating's wife gave birth to two sons and a daughter, the two sons are ten and four years old respectively, and his daughter should be thirteen years old this year, and it is said that she has not yet decided to marry." ”

What he said couldn't be understood anymore, Lu Shude blurted out, "The Xu family fancy Brother Zhongyuan? Such nouveau riche! ”

But neither Lu Shusheng nor Qian Yuan spoke, and there was silence in the study.

Lu Shusheng was thinking about his son-in-law Qian Zheng, in his opinion, this was Xu Jie's means to win over Qian Zheng again, but now Xu Jie is a well-deserved number two person in the court, even if this southeast incident is defeated, it is difficult to really affect his status, is it necessary?

But what Qian Yuan thought in his heart was much more complicated, he didn't like these intrigues, but he was no stranger to them.

After a long silence, Qian Yuan spoke with difficulty, his voice dry and hoarse, "Shuangjiang Gong summoned me to accompany the army ......"

"When I met Shuangjiang Gong in Suzhou before, Zhao Wenhua, the right attendant of the Ministry of Industry who went south to Zhejiang to supervise the war, treated me very kindly......

Qian Yuan's hand involuntarily touched the jade pendant hanging from his waist, which was given by Zhao Wenhua at the time of parting, the tentacles were warm and valuable.

The study fell silent again, and the young Lu Shude looked at this and that, looking at it with a blank face.

Nie Bao summoned Qian Yuan to accompany the army, Zhao Wenhua was kind to him, and Xu Jie had the intention of marrying, it was obvious that these three things that happened almost at the same time must be related, Lu Shusheng, who had been away from the imperial court for nearly three years, didn't know where to start for a while, and he didn't understand the connection.

Lu Shusheng was confused, but Qian Yuan, who was in it, was clear, at least part of it.

This is the last thing Qian Yuan wants to see, he is willing to contribute to the southeast anti-Japanese war, but he never wants to be involved in the most bizarre court struggle in the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years.

Yan Song, Xu Jie, Nie Bao...... Qian Yuan repeated these three names in his heart painfully.

Qian Yuan is not presumptuous, he once served as a military counselor in the governor's yamen, and twice helped the officers and soldiers to defend the city and achieved great victories, and Yu Dayou, Lu Bo, Lu Bin, and Qi Jiguang in the army have a deep relationship, plus Yuyao Sun Jia, Taizhou Tan Lun, and Tang Shunzhi behind him......

In the big game of chess in the southeast anti-Japanese war, although Qian Yuan is inconspicuous, he is a chess piece that cannot be ignored.

Obviously, Nie Bao and Zhao Wenhua have seen it, and even Xu Jie has thrown aside his old grievances and extended an olive branch......

Qian Yuan gritted his teeth and complained in his heart, the meat was not cooked, and the hand that divided the meat reached over, and he was not afraid that the meat was not cooked, but your hands were cooked first!

"Strange goods?" Lu Shusheng asked tentatively, he was very self-aware, and he was not as good as the young man in front of him in these matters.

"Perhaps." Qian Yuan said a few perfunctory words and hurriedly saluted out of the Lu house.

"This ......" Lu Shude looked at Qian Yuan's back curiously, and suddenly turned his head and asked loudly: "Brother, you don't care about Brother Yuan's people?" ”

"What's the matter?"

“……”

Lu Shusheng picked up the teacup and took a sip, and said softly: "What kind of person do you think he is?" ”

"If you can't handle this kind of trivial matter well, where can you be qualified to be known as the most outstanding hero of the Qian family's generation who is expected by the southeast public?"
