Lu Yunzhi followed Steward Liu to the courtyard, and Ah Rong also followed him, but saw Lu Yunzhi nodding slightly at him, and his eyes returned to the kind of gaze that he couldn't reach, Ah Rong was stunned again, and immediately put away the doubts that had just been ignited, and secretly said in his heart: This person is definitely not a thing in the pool, and he must not be underestimated.

Ah Rong took Lu Yunzhi to the firewood room and then exchanged a few words with the housekeeper, and the housekeeper surnamed Liu turned around and left. Ah Rong said: "Dare to ask my brother Taigao's name." Lu Yunzhi replied with a smile: "Don't dare, don't dare, my surname is Lu Mingyunzhi." Thank you for taking me in, and even more so for the dough you gave me earlier. Ah Rong said in a speechless manner: "It turns out that it is really you, you wait a while, I will go and get you a few clothes, I am afraid that Steward Liu will forget." And let me tell you, our lord is a rite minister named Yang Zhun, you should know that Nanjing is only the capital, although our lord is in the fifth grade, but he has no real power. But our family is quite wealthy and can support such a large family. But to talk about our lord's uncle is amazing, called Yang Shan, originally just a show but all the way to the present has become the left waiter of the Beijing Rite Department and in charge of Honglu Temple, as the saying goes, there are people in the court who are good officials, and the lord has only mentioned the position of Langzhong from a deputy envoy, I shouldn't have told you. But even if I brought you into the door, you can come to me if you have something to do in the future, but don't talk nonsense. ”

Lu Yunzhi nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Rong." When he said this, he snickered in his heart, it turned out that his master turned out to be an official who was in a relationship. However, when he heard the name Yang Shan, he was still shocked, he had not seen him when he was in the capital, but the hexagram he had calculated just now showed that this person was the key person who changed the fate of heaven and earth. Lu Yunzhi originally just wanted to find a place to settle down, so he pinched his fingers and calculated the residence of the entourage who gave him the bread just now, and actually calculated the hexagram about heaven and earth and Yang Shan. But at this moment, hearing what Ah Rong said, Yang Shan was just a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, but he was disappointed.

The main responsibility of the Ministry of Rites is to be responsible for the imperial examination and foreign affairs, but in fact, the main role is the ceremonial memorial. As for the supervision of the imperial examinations that sometimes he participated in, it was when the officials salvaged oil and water, and the imperial examination system in the Ming Dynasty was still relatively strict, but there were still some favoritism and malpractices that were not uncommon, and as long as they were not stabbed by others, they would be fine. As an official of the Ministry of Rites, it is natural that he can influence the great changes in heaven and earth. But according to the hexagram, Yang Shan must have participated in this change, so Lu Yunzhi is not completely disappointed, and now he is alone and no longer afraid of anything, so he has the right to have fun with all variables.

At this time, someone happened to send the family's clothes and a basin of water, which was naturally explained by the housekeeper, and it seems that Steward Liu has not forgotten the maid who has just entered the door. Lu Yunzhi freshened up and changed into the black servant clothes, the faint white hair on the temples and the sword eyebrows were slightly raised, the snow-white skin and a pair of eyes like the bright moon, with this capable black clothes, he was suddenly energetic and extraordinary. Ah Rong looked stupid, he had never seen such a magnificent person, even his own master did not have this kind of temperament, how did he know that Lu Yunzhi usually interacted with the emperor's ministers and others, so naturally there was no sign of groveling.

Ah Rong took Lu Yunzhi out of the firewood room, as soon as he went out, Ah Rong found that Lu Yunzhi immediately lowered his head, walked with his shoulders between his shoulders, and was as cautious as a slave who had lived in the house for many years. How did he know that Lu Yunzhi had gone through this training, and knew when to be publicized and when to be introverted, and he was no longer the Lu Yunzhi who was in the middle of the same vein. This cautious movement on thin ice was learned from the slaves he had seen in the streets during his begging, and that they had walked in the presence of their masters.

Ah Rong suddenly asked, "Brother Lu, where are you from the north?" I don't see many people, and I can't hear much. Lu Yunzhi thought about it for a while, he was from the northwest, but he came to Beijing in the growth stage, and if he listened to the accent, he had the right to say that he was from Shuntianfu. So Lu Yunzhi replied: "Brother Ah Rong, in the future, you must not call me Brother Lu in front of outsiders, just call me Ah Lu, otherwise you will cause me trouble." I grew up in Suncheonfu. ”

Ah Rong patted his forehead and said, "I see, Steward Liu is really an old fox, and it makes sense to let you copy things." Our master was originally from Daxing, how can I listen to your accent so familiar. The scholar that the master brought in Daxing returned to his hometown a while ago, and in two days I will introduce you to the master as his scholar, so you don't have to work. I thought he was flattering me when he said to get you a job copying, hehe. ”

Lu Yunzhi replied: "Then thank you!" Then he followed Ah Rong to inspect the path, Ah Rong has always been worried that Lu Yunzhi will get lost in the mansion, where do you know that the mansion of Zhongzheng is several times larger than here.

Nanjing is a capital, Beijing is a capital, just in the distant city of Beijing, Zhu Qiyu sat on the top of the hall, looked at the civil and military officials under the hall, and said: "I once said that the big position is not what I want, why do you persecute me again and again?!" The ministers bent down and bowed their heads, not daring to speak.

Zhu Qiyu said again: "I have sent envoys to welcome back the imperial brother many times, but Warat did not release people and imposed blackmail, which is tolerable and unbearable. In fact, Zhu Qiyu is arguing with strong words, but no one in the court dares to refute it, Wara has already compromised and said that as long as a team of honor guards is sent, Zhu Qizhen can be welcomed back to the court, which can be regarded as a little face. But Zhu Qiyu, as he said to Lu Yunzhi, was worried that Zhu Qizhen would cause a change after returning to Beijing, and his throne would not be guaranteed, so he didn't even agree to Zhu Qiyu's small request, he just wanted Zhu Qizhen to stay in Warat forever, and he would always be the emperor.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the group of ministers under the court, sighed and said: "Then according to what you and the others said, send another team of envoys to go, I am tired, so I will retreat." After the ministers left, only Yu Qian stood still, Zhu Qiyu drank the eunuch, walked to Yu Qian's side and said, "Big brother, who do you think is more appropriate to send?" ”

Yu Qian lowered his waist and bent it even more respectfully, and said: "Your Majesty must not be called like this again, before because of the chaos in the world, it was called so in order to act in secret, and now although the Zhongzheng line has not been completely wiped out, it has also become a broken candle, and it will not take long for all the people of heaven and earth in the Ming Dynasty to be killed by us, so Your Majesty is really going to be tormented if you want to call it like this." Zhu Qiyu nodded and replied, "Then it's as you wish." ”

Yu Qian suddenly asked: "Your Majesty, in the cellar of the inn outside the city that day, Your Majesty pleaded for Zhongzheng Yimai, does it seem ridiculous now?" "Hehe, I did have some women's kindness back then, some time ago I heard that they also gathered in Bazhou to prepare for a rebellion, thanks to you, Yu Qian, you are really a pillar of the country. However, this Zhu Jianwen and his father Zhu Qi were really angry, and they were recruited into Beijing to behead them on another day, and they dared to steal beams and change pillars to fool me. Zhu Qiyu said angrily.

Yu Qian smiled and said: "No, Zhu Qijiao is really an old fox, and the trick he used to steal beams and change pillars made us speechless, and we could only act in secret from now on." If we behead their father and son at this moment, it will inevitably cause panic among the vassal kings of the world, so we must think about it in the long run. As for who to send to Warat, I think I'll let Yang Shan go. ”

"Yang Shan, that waiter of the Ministry of Rites, why is he?" Zhu Qiyu asked in surprise.
