Leaving Henan, Lu Zheng and others can already see the situation in the Guanzhong area, the wheat seedlings on the plain are growing very vigorously, and Lu Zheng and others also understand that after the land is remeasured and distributed, everyone has land to plant.

Lu Zheng looked out the window, many farmers were resting in the fields, and the scene of peace reminded Lu Zheng of a person, that was Yu Wenrong. Yu Wenrong has made a meritorious job in clearing the fields, His Majesty will definitely promote Yu Wenrong to the position of the Imperial Historian, if he is promoted, Yu Wenrong will definitely be an important minister of the imperial court. Now Yao Chong is about to become a leader, and it is not surprising that Su Ying will become Zaifu, but Yao Chong will definitely introduce Song Jing, the governor of Guangzhou, as the prime minister.

Speaking of which, now the court will inevitably fight for the phase, and this Chang'an will inevitably be agitated, but since ancient times, power has changed hands, and who can live in peace.

Although Lu Zheng will not participate in it himself, this secret struggle will also involve him, at this time Yao Chong and Lu Huaishen are about to withdraw from the political hall, and there is also an old minister of several dynasties with more seniority, that is, Liu Youqiu.

Liu Youqiu was originally the first hero when Li Longji pacified Princess Taiping, and was awarded the Danshu Iron Coupon, and was named the Duke of Xu, but later because of the dispute between the government and the government, he was sent to the local area, and he was the history of Muzhou and Hangzhou, and now he has passed away suddenly.

Lu Zheng understands why Liu Youqiu was demoted, so he knows this life-and-death court dispute, seeing that Chang'an City is about to arrive, Lu Zheng can't help but have mixed feelings in his heart, he has been in Luoyang for dozens of days, and now he returns to Chang'an, it must be a big change in the situation.

Qi Huan, who was in the carriage at this time, looked at Lu Zheng uncertainly, and said: "Lu Changshi is now in Beijing, Your Majesty will definitely praise him, and Liu Dayuan and I can also benefit from it." ”

Lu Zheng said: "How can the Qishe people only think about rewards, we have also made a lot of mistakes in Luoyang, just take me imprisoned by Fu Yin, among which is the crime of not doing well, we are likely to have little praise." ”

Qi Huan said again: "That's impossible, after all, we also pacified the Luoyang bandits, and benefited a lot of people, this can't be without merit." ”

Lu Zheng said: "These credits are indeed our doing, but Lu Huaishen will definitely take these credits alone, and it will be difficult for us to defend them at that time, this Luoyang is finally pacified by him, naturally his credit is the greatest, and sometimes it will cover up our credit." ”

Liu Dayuan said: "Look at what you say, I think it's best as long as it's safe, I always heard people in the village say that Chang'an Longtan Tiger's Den is an unusual place." Now that I have seen the suburbs, it is the same as I imagined in my mind. ”

Liu Dayuan's words were a little meaningful, and Lu Zheng asked: "Brother Dayuan, don't walk around when you enter Chang'an, I always have a very bad feeling now, I'm afraid something will happen, so let's settle down a little, except for entering the palace to meet Your Majesty, we will stay in the mansion." And the Qishe people can continue to be your Zhongshu people from now on, and I and the Dayuan brothers will be with Xue Jungong. ”

Liu Dayuan said: "Who is Xue Jungong?" It sounds like a high-ranking official. ”

Lu Zheng said: "Xue Jungong belongs to the queen of Jiangmen, and he was also a big man in the court, but now he is getting old and lives with me. Since I went to Luoyang, I haven't heard from him, but now that I'm back, we can meet his old man. ”

Liu Dayuan asked again: "Xue Jungong is still in Chang'an now?" ”

Lu Zheng said: "I guess so, Xue Jungong should still be in that courtyard at this time." ”

At this time, the carriage was almost at the city gate, and Lu Zheng poked his head out of the window at this time, and saw the flow of people from near and far, and his heart was also extremely excited. Looking at the Chang'an City Gate not far away, he was a little excited.

When he arrived at the city gate, Lu Zheng leaned out and jumped out of the carriage, he saw the guards on the tall city gate with solemn expressions, and when he approached, a soldier came over and said, "Show your ID." ”

Lu Zheng took out the document disc of His Majesty's departure, and several soldiers said with great respect: "It turned out to be Lu Changshi, please come in, please come in." ”

Lu Zheng didn't go in immediately, but sighed alone: "I haven't been in Chang'an for many days, and now that I'm back here, I'm a little rusty." ”

The soldiers just chimed in: "Changshi, please come in, don't hinder the patrol below." ”

Lu Zheng stood there for a long time, and it was only at this time that he woke up and got out of the way. At this time, Liu Dayuan came up from behind and said, "Lu Changshi, let's go into the city." ”

The three of them then entered the city, and at this time Lu Zheng was ready to go back to the mansion where he once lived, and Qi Huan was going to enter the palace at this time and present the matter to His Majesty, in fact, Li Longji had already paid attention to the situation in Luoyang, and had already ordered Qi Huan and Lu Zheng to go to the palace to meet as soon as they returned to Chang'an.

At this time, Lu Zheng and Liu Dayuan arrived in front of the door of the old mansion, and saw that there were many traces left by the wind and rain on the Zhu Gate, Lu Zheng sighed: "After a long time, I am a little strange." I remember that the vermilion lacquer was still very real at the beginning, but now it has become a little blurry, and I don't know how long the wind and rain have washed this door. ”

Seeing that Lu Zheng raised his hand and didn't knock on the door for a long time, Liu Dayuan asked, "Why didn't Lu Changshi knock?" ”

Lu Zheng sighed: "I don't know how to say this first sight to Xue Jungong. ”

Liu Dayuan looked at Lu Zheng's hand hanging in the air, so he reached out and knocked on the door, Lu Zheng also sighed helplessly, waiting for Xue Jun to open the door, Liu Dayuan knocked a few times in a row, but no one opened the door. Liu Dayuan was puzzled, but saw a carriage coming over there. Lu Zheng also looked over, the carriage looked very gorgeous, and the curtains were fluttering.

At this time, a familiar figure got down from the carriage, and what Lu Zheng saw was indeed Xue Ne, and Xue Ne shouted: "Lu Zheng, I haven't seen you for a long time, it's really you." ”

Lu Zheng walked over at this time and respectfully bowed his hand to Xue Ne: "Lu Zheng has returned home." ”

Liu Dayuan saw that the two seemed to be sympathetic to each other, and watched from the sidelines, and Xue Ne said with tears in his eyes at this time: "There is something to say in the house." ”

The three of them sat in the room, and Xue Ne asked: "Lu Zheng also took a lot of effort to go to Luoyang, it seems that you were imprisoned by Fu Yin, and I also listened to Lu Huaishen, which also caused a burst of noise in the court." ”

Lu Zheng sighed: "I feel a little guilty when I talk about this, but I am also very helpless. ”

Xue Ne looked at Lu Zheng and looked depressed, and at this time he turned his eyes to Liu Dayuan, and asked, "Who is this strong man?" ”

Liu Dayuan himself explained: "I am the coachman recruited by Lu Changshi in Henan, it's not that I have been in Luoyang with Lu Changshi for a long time, so I will follow Lu Changshi." ”

"So that's the case, Lu Zheng has always been discerning, he used you to prove that you are very unusual, what are your plans to come to Chang'an now?"

Liu Dayuan said 1510: "I came with Lu Changshi, although Lu Changshi wants to give me a military position, but I don't want to for the time being, I just want to be a guard by Lu Changshi's side." ”

Xue Ne nodded, and said, "I didn't expect Brother Dayuan to be so loyal and courageous. Not for profit, but only for the grace of appreciation. ”

Lu Zheng looked around the house, and felt that it was not magnificent, and even a little shabby, this house could only hide from the night rain, and it definitely did not look like the residence of a county prince.

But now looking at Xue Jungong's safe appearance, Lu Zheng was a little chilled, but Lu Zheng didn't dare to complain, after all, this is a gift from His Majesty, even if it is a bad house, he can't complain.

At this time, Xue Ne said again: "It's not too early now, after we have some light dinner, I still have something to discuss with Lu Zheng." ”

Not long after, Xue Ne's new recruits made a meal and served it on the table, and the three of them chatted while eating, and they were also happy. The three of them were in the courtyard, taking advantage of the cold, Lu Zheng said while eating: "Let's just say that when I first met Xue Jungong, it was when I attacked Tubo, and I didn't have any prestige in the army at that time, and at that time, Xue Jungong commanded the whole army, and it was the time when he was heroic." ”

Xue Ne smiled: "I didn't expect that Lu Zheng still didn't forget that time, but it's all in the past, and it's useless to mention more." Now Lu Zheng also knows the position of the chief assistant in this court, which makes His Majesty very worried. The position of this chief assistant is uncertain, and how many of them are fighting for their heads and blood. ”

Lu Zheng sighed, feeling that Xue Ne was very reasonable, and Liu Dayuan saw that the atmosphere was wrong, so he raised his wine and said: "Forget it, don't say those unhappy words, now that the three of us get together, it is rare, not to get drunk in the bar." ”

Lu Zheng also said when he saw the opportunity: "Okay, okay, since Brother Dayuan said so, let's get drunk and rest." ”

Xue Ne was a little resistant at this time, so he said: "Let's not get too drunk today, I haven't finished my words yet, I can't control the affairs of this court, but I'm worried that someone will win me over, and if I don't accept it, there will be trouble." ”

Liu Dayuan asked at this time: "Who has such a power that can make Xue Jungong afraid of three points?" ”

Xue Ne smiled: "Of course there are people, I am also old now, and I can't speak, that is, like duckweed." This is competing for the position of Zaifu, which is not a terrible force. ”

Liu Dayuan said again: "I'm a rough person, I don't know if you are fighting for me in this court, but I want to say that I have come all the way with Lu Changshi, and I have also tasted a lot of officialdom battles, but I think they are just some meaningless battles." ”

Lu Zheng sighed: "Brother Dayuan, you are still an understanding person, but you have your position, and we officials sometimes can't help ourselves, just like Henan Mansion Yin, he knows the consequences but still has to hit up, these things Brother Dayuan still doesn't understand." ”

Liu Dayuan said: "You have your reason for Lu Changshi's words, but I still insist on my opinion." ”

Xue Ne smiled at this time: "You are all right, so don't say it, tomorrow you accompany me to a place, someone wants to see me, but I haven't been there for a long time, and now that you are back, I will have a backer." ”

Liu Dayuan asked, "Who should this be?" provoked Xue Jungong to be so worried, why did he want me to go with Lu Changshi, if someone wants to dump the county prince, the county prince might as well play Your Majesty. ”
