Chapter 54: My heart is in turmoil
"What I just said is the first thing today, and secondly, I asked the emperor for guilt, Lu Mou's management was not effective, and his subordinate Dong De caused the people of Liangguang to live in trouble because of the business dispute with Fang Qingze, which led to this popular uprising, I hope the emperor can spare him in my second brother Fang Qingze's contribution to the Ming Dynasty's enrichment of the treasury and the economy and the people for so many years, I have let the two of them make meritorious contributions to Liangguang and southern Xinjiang, and my eldest brother also sent troops to Liangguang to suppress it, and I think the people's rebellion will be suppressed soon after the people's livelihood improves." Lu Yunzhi clasped his fists and said,
Zhu Qizhen was shocked, he didn't know the inside story of the Liangguang Rebellion, Cao Jixiang was also surprised, he didn't understand why Lu Yunzhi wanted to poke it out by himself because no one knew about it, there was no channel for the matter to enter the palace, even if he could, he could be covered by Lu Yunzhi.
He can't understand Lu Yunzhi's actions at this moment, let alone Lu Yunzhi's mood at this moment, it is an incomparable guilt and self-blame, Lu Yunzhi's mood at the moment is extremely heavy, it is because of his own negligence that this catastrophe happened, the war has started I don't know how many families have to be displaced, whether it is not his subordinates or his second brother, Lu Yunzhi cannot escape the blame, which is extremely inconsistent with his original intention when he was a child, and now what is the difference between this result and those Tartars who invaded the territory of the Ming Dynasty, It also plunged the people into dire straits, became refugees under displacement, and embarked on a bleak road to escape.
Zhu Qizhen quickly calmed down, his eyes were suddenly full of reverence, nodded and said: "Brother Xian, what do you tell me to say so selflessly, I admire the imperial brother, Fang Qingze and Dong De are both pillars of the country, and the economic and financial resources of Daming need to rely on the two of them, even if they did not do it right this time, but the merits outweigh the faults, as long as it is not too late to make amends, as for Qu Xiangtian, you thank him for me, although he has a false title of young master in Daming, but I know that he is the real person in power in Annan, At this moment when the country is in crisis, Qu Aiqing can lead the troops to help, which really touches me, you are all the backbone of the country, you have the right line, the luck of the world, the luck of the people, and the luck of me. ”
"By the way, Lord Lu, why didn't you call Zhongguo Gong to discuss things together." Cao Jixiang said,
Lu Yunzhi looked at Cao Jixiang meaningfully and said: "Zhongguo Gong Shi Heng, I need to talk to him alone, to be honest, there is a very important reason for not entering the palace this time is also to avoid Shi Heng knowing in advance, I am afraid that he will think too much, after all, now he is in charge of the military power, and his nephew Shi Biao is guarding Datong If he does not have a deep talk with him, I am afraid that it will affect the coordination of the army, and I am even more worried that he will hinder me in the rear. Shi Heng must now hand over the military power to me, otherwise the Ming Dynasty will undoubtedly be defeated, but as a military general, the power in his hands is a soldier, and I am the guy who wants him to eat, so the delivery of military power is what he does not want, but it is helpless, in this case, it is inevitable that he will be careful, and the two of us need to talk about it separately, so as not to affect the overall situation. ”
Cao Jixiang and Zhu Qizhen nodded, understanding the truth, at this time, Ah Rong ran in and whispered a few words in Lu Yunzhi's ear, Lu Yunzhi blinked while listening, his face did not change color, and then Yun Qingfeng smiled lightly and hugged his fists and said to Zhu Cao and the others: "Lu still has important things to do, and now the situation cannot be bad, it is rude." ”
Cao Jixiang also smiled and hugged his fists and said: "It's okay, national affairs are important, our family will secretly send the emperor back to the palace first, and the emperor will go." ”
Zhu Qizhen said: "That virtuous brother, let's go first, if you need a holy decree, you can send someone into the palace to find me, and I will order someone to make a batch of gold medals when I turn around, which is written like King's Landing, and your future actions only need to let the officials of the supervision wear such gold medals, and the officials of the world must wait for the dispatch, I am waiting for your good news in the palace." Saying that, Zhu Qizhen stretched out his hand and shook Lu Yunzhi's arms, the two of them were just like back then, there was no distinction between monarchs and ministers, and outsiders seemed to be extremely trusting.
After the two left, Lu Yunzhi glanced at Ah Rong beside him, pointed and said, "You, I haven't settled accounts with you about the previous matter, and I dare to cover up for Dong De, and I am so disappointed that I don't announce it." ”
Ah Rong lowered his head, he understood that Lu Yunzhi must be in turmoil now, he has never been a person who repeatedly mentions old things, he said just now that he will definitely not pursue it again, and now he is afraid that he is afraid again because he doesn't know what to say, it must be the news he just said that disturbed Lu Yunzhi's state of mind,
Lu Yunzhi didn't say anything, just stood up and paced back and forth, round and round, and then suddenly smashed the teacup to the ground, blood suddenly gushed out of his mouth, and he fell to the ground unconscious.
Lu Yunzhi was carried into the chamber, Yang Xiyu and Yingzi also hurriedly arrived, standing aside to watch Wang Yulu treat Lu Yunzhi, Wang Yulu shook his head and said: "Although the lord recuperated well later, but when he was a child, he cultivated the art of heaven and earth and injured the root, and he was cured but the cause is still there. ”
Yingzi nodded in thanks, and then said to Ah Rong: "Ah Rong, what did you just say to my father-in-law, making him so angry, and the person who collapsed in front of Mount Tai and did not change color actually fell like this." ”
Ah Rong didn't dare to answer but bowed his head and said nothing, Yang Xiyu said angrily: "Don't say it quickly." Ah Rong said: "Yes, two ladies, Miss Shi just sent a message to ask the lord to write a letter of resignation, she said that she wants to marry Han Yueqiu as soon as possible, and I am afraid it is inappropriate to have no letter of resignation." ”
Since Shi Yuting left the Zhongzheng Yimai compound, it is no longer suitable to call Mrs., so when talking about her, she is often called Miss Shi, Yingzi heard the news and scolded angrily: "This dead girl, why don't you distinguish the time, now that the country is in trouble at home and abroad, the lord is annoyed enough, how can she still add fuel to the fire." ”
While talking, the leopard Lu Jiugang Tan Qing and others walked in, Tan Qing's face was full of resentment, obviously he heard Yingzi's words, looked sideways at Lu Yunzhi, who was lying on the bed with a pale face, and turned his head without saying a word, Yang Xiyu hurriedly reached out and grabbed her and asked, "Why are you going." ”
