Chapter 314: Embarrassing Father and Son!
@: Chapter 314
The big housekeeper of the Lu Mansion, Hong Quan, is gone?
Lu Qianrao has a city government, and his eyes widened in shock, this old thing is his enemy for decades, and if he says no, he will be gone? How is this possible?
Ximenye's expression remained unchanged, and said: "The big housekeeper went to the old lady's study, and after leaving the old lady's study, he went to the courtyard of Zheng Gongzi, and then returned to the residence to retreat left and right. ”
"Ah...... That...... ......" Lu Qian's eyes widened and stammered, he wanted to say something, but he wanted to say something.
Ximenye didn't say much, but the information contained in just a few sentences was huge. Hong Quan went to Lu Zheng's courtyard, which showed that his death was related to Lu Zheng.
This time, Lu Jun and Lu Zheng were attacked one after another in Liuhe, and they almost died, is there still Hong Quan behind him? Lu Qian felt that this was entirely possible.
Hong Quan definitely can't look at the second room well, Lu Zheng is his Lu Qian's son, what's so strange about Hong Quan wanting to kill Lu Zheng?
It's just that Lu Qian didn't know anything about such a thing, and Lu Zheng actually mastered it all? What shocked Lu Qian even more was that the old lady would let Hong Quan die, if Hong Quan was just an old man, it would be fine.
What this old thing has in his hands is the most confidential and core resources of the Lu family, the hidden forces of the Lu family are in the hands of Hong Quan, Hong Quan is dead, where did those resources go, and who should take over?
Ximenye seemed to see through Lu Qian's thoughts, and said, "Master, in my humble opinion, a tacit understanding has been reached between Gongzi Zheng and the old lady. Hong Quan died at the hands of Brother Zheng, and the things in his hands naturally would not be left behind. ”
"What do you say? He...... He...... A yellow-mouthed child, why do you hold the most important resources of the Lu family in your hands. Why? This rebel, does he still have me in his eyes? Is there still this home? Lu Qian was furious.
Ximenye bowed his head and said nothing, just shook his head secretly.
He understands Lu Zheng's mind best, and draws a clear line between himself and the Lu family in Lu Zheng's heart, the Lu family is the Lu family, and Lu Zheng is Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng did such a big thing in Liuhe has nothing to do with the Lu family, and now the Lu family has to rely on him to rise, not him to rely on the Lu family.
Not only the Lu family, but Lu Qian now has to rely on Lu Zheng to master more family resources, and even needs Lu Zheng to give him advice and make a breakthrough in his career.
This is the reality, Lu Qian can't change it if he doesn't admit it, he wants to press Lu Zheng as his father, so he doesn't have to think about it at all, with Lu Zheng's means, there are a hundred ways to make Lu Qian unable to eat and walk around.
Ximen Ye was silent, Lu Qian's anger was difficult to dissipate, and said: "Go, follow me to find this rebel, I want to see how much ability he has, can he really take me as an old man in his eyes?" ”
Lu Qian said to go, stood up and was about to go out, and when he walked to the door, Hong Shen blocked his way like a stake, Lu Qian stared at him and said, "Do you know?" The big butler is gone! ”
Hong Shen nodded and sighed softly.
Lu Qian said: "The things he mastered were originally going to be handed over to you!" Your Hong family has always held those resources for the Lu family, and it will be no exception in the future, I will go to Lu Zheng, a rebel, to find out, what does he want to do? ”
Hong Shen said: "Master, don't go!" The life of the old man of the Hong family was exchanged for 100,000 taels of silver by Gongzi Zheng! ”
"What do you say? How much silver, ten ...... 100,000 taels? He...... Where did he get all this silver? He ......" Lu Qian's face was full of shock and incoherent, I have to say that he was frightened by the number of 100,000 taels.
How much is a hundred thousand taels of silver? Piled up in this courtyard can be piled up into a mountain, the Lu family is known as the top powerful family in Jiangnan, but Lu Qian has never owned so much silver.
Now Lu Zheng can easily take out 100,000 taels of silver, which is too surprising to him. Ximen Ye said: "Master, the 100,000 taels of silver that Brother Zheng earned in Liuhe is just a drop in the bucket. More than ninety percent of the shops on the street of Sankongqiao are his.
In addition, the tens of thousands of acres of land near the wharf are all his, and anyone who wants to do business in Liuhe without taking the path of Brother Zheng will not be able to ...... at all."
"How can it be!" Lu Qian said angrily: "The scholar actually does business, where is the face of the Lu family?" What is the decency of a scholar? Now is the time when his studies are intense, Lu Zheng, this kid doesn't want to study hard, he actually thinks about business, he really sacrifices his roots, this kind of inferior son is not good at teaching lessons, how can he become a big tool in the future? ”
Hong Shen sighed lightly and lowered his voice and said, "Master, Brother Zheng handed me a message, saying that Lord Liuhe Nie will be promoted in the near future, and the Liuhe County Order may be vacant.
Aren't you, sir, waiting for a vacancy? Now this opportunity has come, and this opportunity must not be missed! ”
Lu Qian was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened and said, "Really? This ......"
Ximen Ye on the side hurriedly said: "This matter should not be fake, Nie Yong's outstanding political achievements in Liuhe are obvious to all." Moreover, Nie Yong is so close to Zhan Tianqi, the prince is employing people, and there should be no suspense for Nie Yong to be activated! ”
Lu Qian's face changed drastically, and he slowly paced around the room, and the idea that he was angry about finding Lu Zheng just now instantly faded.
Compared with Lu Zheng's disrespect, the matter of Liuhe's upcoming vacancy is much more important in Lu Qian's eyes. Lu Qian thought about it in the hope that he could get out of the current situation and have the opportunity to take charge of himself and shepherd the Son of Heaven.
He is now a five-grade official, but he is willing to be a magistrate, in his opinion, even if he is a magistrate, it is better than him doing nothing like this, eating and waiting for death.
It's just that he has this goal in mind, so how easy is it to really do it? He worked hard more than ten years ago, and he had such an ambition, and he has survived until today, until his hair is gray, and he still can't achieve it.
Seeing Lu Qian's expression, Hong Shen sighed secretly, and Lu Zheng pinched the weakness of everyone in the Lu family to death. On the old lady's side, Lu Zheng raised his hand and gave 100,000 taels of silver, and one of Hong Quan's old lives, including the hidden forces that the Lu family had accumulated over the years, was all taken away by Lu Zheng.
Lu Qian was not convinced, but Lu Zheng only used a little trick to soothe the dissatisfaction in Lu Qian's heart.
"This matter has to be considered in the long run, but even so, what does it have to do with this kid Lu Zheng? Could it be that he still has the ability to influence the Ministry of Officials? Lu Qian said.
Ximen Ye said: "Master, what you say is wrong. Zheng Gongzi can be said to be in control of the overall situation this time, and when he turns around, he will inevitably have a fierce game with the Ruan family, the Gu family and several others.
Master, think about it, how influential are the Ruan family and the Gu family in the Southern Imperial Court? As long as Brother Zheng is willing to use this matter as a bargaining chip, it is very likely that the Ruan family and the Gu family will support you together, and at that time, you will be able to make up for this shortcoming, do you say that this is the reason? ”
Lu Qian frowned slightly, and stopped talking a few times, what Ximen Ye said was true, and it was indeed like that. But from Lu Qian's standpoint, does he still want to ask Lu Zheng for help?
How can anyone beg for a son? Where did Lu Qian's face go?
But in the current situation, Lu Zheng is indeed the key person, he has the resources that the Lu family does not have, and he has more wealth than the Lu family, and now even the killer weapon in Hong Quan's hands is controlled by Lu Zheng.
If Lu Qian wants to get a chance to fill the vacancy, he can only get Lu Zheng's support, otherwise, what does he rely on to get a chance?
"Master, fight the tiger brothers, go into battle with father and son, since Gongzi Zheng has let Steward Hong pass the word, he must have taken this matter to heart!
It's still early for the situation, so put your heart in your stomach for the time being, and wait for the accurate news to come, and then we will plan. At present, the old man should ease the relationship with Zheng Gongzi, no matter what, this time the old lady's birthday banquet can be so successful, Zheng Gongzi has contributed a lot! Ximenye reassured.
Lu Qian nodded slightly, his expression finally looked better, he raised his hand, and said, "Let's go, let's go over there and have a look?" ”
Lu Qian was about to step out of the door, but the door outside pushed the door in and said: "Master, Gongzi Zheng asked people to deliver a message, saying that he was busy with his studies and it was inconvenient to stay at home for a long time, so he set off to study in Liuhe!" ”
"What? Let's go? Lu Qian said angrily, and Menzi's face turned white with fright. Lu Qian's face changed, and Hong Shen said: "Master, Brother Zheng came to say goodbye to you in the morning, you happened to go to the old lady's side, so you missed it, and then there was a doorman to deliver the message......"
Lu Qian held his breath in his chest and wanted to vent it, but he couldn't succeed, not to mention how bad it was, he thought about Lu Zheng, and then thought about himself, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Where is such a relationship like father and son? In Lu Zheng's heart, I'm afraid that he still remembers his father after all!
Lu Qian felt a little ashamed in his heart, and even more regretful, regretting that he had not cared about the affairs of the family for so many years, if not, he would definitely not have made the family relationship like this, now the father and son can't get along, and the family can't be reunited.
……
Lu Zheng left, came in a hurry, and walked in a hurry. The old lady of the Lu family made a special trip to build a house for him, and he only stayed for one night and left, with a resolute attitude and a resolute will.
On the carriage, Lu Zheng closed his eyes and recuperated, outside the carriage, many personal soldiers led by Cheng Hu were on high alert, the boy was by his side, and the master and servant were talking while walking.
"What's the situation? Is everything going well? Lu Zheng said.
"Hong Quan is finally honest, and I have already absorbed all the hidden forces of the Lu family at the moment. We now have three hundred dead at our disposal! ”
"Three hundred? So how? Lu Zheng said in surprise.
The boy said: "It's really unexpected, but we can't use these forces for the time being, because Hong Quan also has a sworn brother who has a particularly good relationship, and this person is hidden and missing."
Hong Quan is dead, what if this person takes a risk......"
"Let people guard Hong Quan's mourning hall for a good life, this person is not there, Hong Quan is not buried, this person is here, I am captured alive and sent to Yingtian, if I can use it, keep it, if I can't use it......"
"Childe, I see!"
Just as the two were talking, a small white dove flew over from the sky, and the bird naturally crossed a beautiful arc in the sky, and then got into the sedan chair.
The boy skillfully took a small note from the little white pigeon's leg, he glanced at it, and his eyes widened: "Childe, as you expected, this person has been caught!" ”
