Yulou Chun Chapter 78 This is the past year
Yao Chong officially stepped down from the post of Zaifu, at this time the subordinates of the Yao Mansion were in front of the gate to prepare to go out of the city, at this time Lu Zheng rode a horse and came quickly, before this he was in the palace with Li Longji's edict, came to send Yao Chong out of Beijing.
When Lu Zheng rode to the front of Yao's mansion, Yao Chong was about to board the car, and at this time, Lu Zheng shouted behind him: "Yao Xiang stays." ”
Yao Chong turned around and saw that Lu Zheng had come down from the horse, and he had already walked in front of him in a few steps, and said, "Lu Zheng is ordered by His Majesty to send Yao Xiang out of Beijing." ”
In fact, Yao Chong is no longer Zaifu at this time, but Lu Zheng's title is to commemorate Yao Chong's contribution to the Tang Dynasty. When Yao Chong was in the phase, no matter domestic and foreign affairs, he did not leak, and his ten things to say were almost the governing program since the beginning of the century.
In Lu Zheng's eyes, these can be described as the glorious world when Zhenguan was restored, so now that Yao Chong has returned to his hometown, it is reasonable for him to shout Yao Xiang again.
Yao Chong said at this time: "Since Lord Lu is on the orders of His Majesty, let's set off." ”
Lu Zheng felt that Yao Chong was also like an arrow, so he said helplessly: "Okay, listen to Yao Xiang's order." ”
Several carriages drove on the street, and the pedestrians next to them could see that this was a court official who was going out of the city, but they didn't know that this was Yao Chong.
Yao Chong stepped down from the position of Zaifu this time, and did not reveal anything to the outside world, so few people know, this is also to prevent congestion, Yao Chong is also a clean and good official in the hearts of the people, and there will naturally be a lot of people to see him off.
At this time, the carriage next to Lu Zheng was sitting in a dressing girl, who saw Lu Zheng more than once, and had a good relationship with him, at this time Lu Zheng couldn't help but say: "It's a long and difficult road to Shaanzhou, and the dressing girl should take care." ”
The dressie girl just nodded and didn't say anything more, and Lu Zheng saw that the dressie girl was in a normal mood, so he said again: "If the dressie girl arrives in Shaanzhou, if there is anything urgent, you can repair a book and come to me." ”
The dressing girl said: "I heard that Lu Changshi has now been made a marquis, I'm afraid it is out of time for me to repair the book with you." ”
At this time, Lu Zheng realized that Lianyi thought that he was different from her, and he couldn't have any intimate words.
Therefore, Lu Zheng hurriedly said: "Don't give birth to the girl in the dress, I have never forgotten the old friends." ”
After hearing this, the dressing girl gradually felt that Lu Zheng was an official without a big frame.
So the dressing girl also remembered the past, and said no longer restrained: "Lu Hou is now escorting my lord out of the city, and I thank you in advance." ”
Lu Zheng shook his head and said: "Don't thank the dressing girl, I am a subordinate of Yao Xiang, and I have worked with him in Zhongshu Province and escorted Yao Xiang out of the city, even if there is no will of His Majesty, I will also come." ”
This time, Yao Chong's family went out of the city, and the formation was very small, with only two carriages, and a few domestic servants and Lu Zheng riding horses, so almost no one could see that this was Zai Fu's resignation.
When the convoy was about to reach the city gate, Lu Zheng rode to the carriage where Yao Chong was sitting, and said inside: "Yao Xiang, it's almost out of the city." ”
Lu Zheng originally asked Yao Chong to see the prosperity of Chang'an City again, but Yao Chong said inside: "Then come out, you can go back when you get out of Chang'an City." ”
Lu Zheng didn't listen to Yao Chong, and still rode forward until he reached the city gate, when Yao Chong shouted to the coachman: "Stop." ”
Then Yao Chong and Lu Zheng sat on a sandy ground outside the city gate, and several subordinates brought the wooden case and sake, the two of them held wine glasses, and did not speak at first, and then Lu Zheng said: "Yao Xiang is going, I guess I won't come back,"
Yao Chong said: "How can there be any reason to return, I am going to Shaanzhou, I just want to spend my old age in peace, as for the temple and court, don't set foot in it, Lu Zheng, you are a cadre, and there is still room for promotion in the future." ”
Yao Chong's words were actually to let Lu Zheng have something to do in the future to assist Song Jing and Su Ying and other Zaifu, but Lu Zheng heard a kind of sadness in it.
In fact, Lu Zheng felt that Yao Chong could be on duty in Zhongshu Province for a few more years, and in his eyes, this prosperous era of Kaiyuan could not be separated from a Zaifu like Yao Chong.
However, Yao Chong has made up his mind, and the returning guests who should leave cannot be kept.
At this time, Lu Zheng arched his hand and said: "Since this is the case, I want to listen to Yao Xiang's last words." ”
Yao Chong didn't want to talk about political affairs anymore, but who knew that Lu Zheng still had to ask at this time, he was silent for a while before he said: "Why does Lu Hou need to listen to the last word, Lu Hou and I also know each other well, and my behavior for many years is better than words." ”
Lu Zheng knew what this meant, Yao Chong picked up the wine glass at this time, and after drinking it himself, he wanted to get in the car and leave.
Lu Zheng wanted to speak and stopped, at this time Yao Chong had already stood up and walked towards the carriage, Lu Zheng also patted the dust and stood up, and said to Yao Chong for the last time: "After this year, I wish Yao Xiang to take care." ”
After Lu Zheng finished speaking, the two carriages had already galloped away at this time, and Lu Zheng could see that Yao Chong had no nostalgia for the political situation in the Tang Dynasty.
After sending Yao Chong away, Lu Zheng returned to the city, at this time, the city was still bustling after dusk, Lu Zheng walked along the street to the house, at this time Liu Dayuan was sharpening his knife in the courtyard, and said to Xue Ne, who was sitting on the side: "Lu Hou should be back soon, right?" I went out early in the morning, and I guess it should be about the same by this time. ”
At this time, Lu Zheng said loudly at the door: "Brother Dayuan's expectation is really good, I'm back." ”
Lu Zheng walked next to Xue Ne in a few steps, and said directly to him: "Yao Xiang left, I sent it." ”
As soon as these words came out, Liu Dayuan didn't have any ideas, but Xue Ne said: "Yao Chonggang recommended Song Jing as the prime minister, and he stepped down, it seems that he is no longer in love with the government." He's really a competent Zaisuke, but he can stay or go. ”
Liu Dayuan asked curiously at this time: "Hearing you say this, presumably this Yao Chong is a Qing official?" ”
"Not to mention the Qing official, this person is admired by all the people, and his merits are world-famous."
Xue Ne replied to Liu Dayuan's words, at this time Liu Dayuan's heart was also up and down, the sentence just now really made people laugh, and he really didn't know what kind of official Yao Chong was, he only knew that Yao Chong was Zaifu, as for the rest, he knew very little.
At this time, Liu Dayuan said again: "I was in the village, my ears and eyes were closed, and I didn't even know much about such a good prime minister, I'm really ashamed." ”
Xue Ne smiled and said: "It's good that Brother Dayuan understands now, but Yao Xiang will slowly fade out of our sight, and there are more people who will continue to open up the future." ”
When Liu Dayuan heard this, he felt a little deep, so he thought about it for a long time, but he still didn't figure it out.
He felt that the political situation in the Kaiyuan Dynasty seemed to be governing all the people and making the world peaceful, as for Yao Chong or Song Jing, since he could be elected as Zaifu, it was also the meaning of His Majesty today, that is, the new person for the old man.
