Chapter Eighty-Six: The Past
"Zheng Sheng pays a visit to Uncle Lu." Zheng Sheng seriously gave Lu Xian the etiquette of a formal visit.
Lu Xian raised his hand and said, "Nephew Zheng Xian doesn't have to be polite, sit down." ”
Zheng Sheng sat down at the bottom of his head, straightened his thoughts, and briefly explained the matter about Sima Xian.
Lu Xian smiled and said, "This county prince is indeed different. Whatever his purpose, he did us a great favor this time. ”
Zheng Sheng nodded.
"The matter between you and Yun'er will be determined in the next few days." Lu Xian's tone suddenly became a little low, "Although I am reluctant, she has been so strong since she was a child. Before, because of my business, she dared to go all the way to Luoyang. You have to be mentally prepared that she is not a submissive little woman. ”
Zheng Sheng smiled bitterly: "Her character, when we first met, I deeply understood it. I'm going to get used to her personality well. ”
"Hmm. Although she has a tough personality, she is accompanied by a man who is really capable, so she naturally will not force herself out and make things worse. Indeed, when you first met, she came up with that idea quite inappropriately. After returning home, she also regretted it a little, for fear that she had entrusted someone else. But recently, judging by your words and deeds, she has become convinced of you. ”
Zheng Sheng grinned, and his mind was a little confused: What does this mean? Didn't Lu Yunmo want to make the fake come true? Isn't there an agreement between them?
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent.
After a moment of silence, Zheng Sheng forcibly opened his mouth and explained: "The kid is just a little scared and doesn't know how to answer. ”
"It's okay." Lu Xian smiled, he thought about it for a while, and decided to continue: "I heard that your mother was born in the Wang clan of Shuzhong? ”
"Yes, my mother was born in the Bajun Wang family. However, because of the difficult journey, I only visited once when I was very young. I still don't remember my grandfather. Zheng Sheng explained, he thought that this was Lu Xian's study of his family background? It is probably similar to when I went on a blind date in later generations, I was asked by the other party's seven aunts and eight aunts in turn: What do you do? How much money can I make in a month?
"Mr. Wang Hong is a famous man in Shu." Lu Xian praised it first and continued, "And your father, Marquis Danyin, is now also the Taishou of Fufeng County. ”
"Yes." At the beginning of this year, Zheng Tan was reappointed to Fufeng County as a taishou.
"And your cousin Zheng Wen also has amazing means of accumulating wealth, and the rest of Zheng Qing, Zheng Han, etc., are also talented people in governing the county, and now you want to marry the daughter of a down-and-out person who was forced to resign from the official position of the county commander, do you have any resentment?" Lu Xian asked in a calm tone.
Zheng Sheng shook his head: "No." Although there are other factors in this engagement. But Lu Yun didn't force me. She just made this suggestion to me. It was I who asked my family to entrust a matchmaker to come to my door to propose marriage. I just ......"
"Just what?"
Zheng Sheng smiled and shook his head, but he didn't know what Lu Yun really thought! But Lu Xian said that she was happy and convinced of him, and probably wouldn't have any other thoughts.
"Did you hear why I resigned?" Lu Xian brought up another topic.
Zheng Sheng nodded, of course he knew. After Zheng Sheng and Zheng Wen talked about Lu Yun's plan, Zheng Wen sent someone to carefully understand the situation of Lu Xian's family, not only knowing Lu Xian's current situation, but also knowing the reason why Lu Xian was forced to resign: he offended Shi Chong at the banquet a few years ago.
"I've been in poor health since her mother died. Alcohol was abstained from much earlier. Shi Chong threatened Jingzhou officials with the words of killing people without drinking, which is indeed full of majesty! ”
"Don't say you don't like him. I heard that when he was in Luoyang, he did something similar. At his feast, many maids died. Zheng Shengdao.
"Naturally, I heard about it, and I didn't want to go to the banquet. But because of his identity, not going to hate him is even more evil. Originally, I thought it was just a rumor. Who knew he could really do it. Lu Xian's face was miserable, "It is inevitable that I will resign, but going to the banquet has killed a person." My fault! ”
Zheng Sheng was silent for a moment, "It's because he is cruel, and my uncle doesn't have to blame himself." ”
"I've had a bumpy career in this life. However, he resigned twice, but he was in this Jingzhou land! Lu Xian sighed.
"What is the reason for the first resignation?" Zheng Sheng thought that when Lu Xian resigned for the first time, it should still be in the Wu period. At that time, the Lu clan of Wu County was the pillar of the Wu Kingdom. Although Lu Xian is not well-known, he was forced to resign, but he should also have a lot of insiders.
Lu Xian glanced at Zheng Sheng, and there was an inexplicable emotion in his eyes.
"I don't know what Yun'er said to you. But in my opinion, the plans of the two little guys may not be enough to attract the attention of the Lu clan of Wu County. Lu Xian sighed.
Zheng Sheng looked at him with a shocked face, why did he have a feeling of being deceived?
"But it was her effort, and I had to accommodate her and let her try. Are you disappointed? In fact, in my opinion, you can get through this difficult time even without the help of the Lu Clan. Therefore, this marriage contract is actually completely regarded as you helping my An Lu Lu clan, but we can't give you any help. ”
Zheng Sheng felt a little incredulous: "You're not afraid that I will regret it?" ”
"Will you regret it?" Lu Xian asked.
Zheng Sheng shook his head, "Can you tell me, why?" "Even if he is fooled, he should be a ghost!
"Yun'er's mother had a difficult birth when she was a child. Although he didn't die, he didn't suffer for a few years. After she died, I changed my original name to 'dedication'. Lu Xian looked at Zheng Sheng.
Zheng Sheng frowned, Lu Xian seems to be off topic again, right?
"And Lu Jian back then, in fact, was a person with a rare name......"
Lu Xian's story is not short, and the storyline is also very tortuous. In Zheng Sheng's opinion, this can definitely be called the main plot of a romance novel.
The story of the person who was still named Lu Jian at that time was like this: Although Lu Jian was a distant relative of Lu Xun's Lu clan. But when he was young, he was also a rare outstanding talent in the clan, maybe not as good as Lu Ji and Lu Yun, but his patriarch Lu Kang was also very optimistic about him.
However, later in an encounter, Lu Jian met Han Ying, the daughter of Han Zhu, the head of Baling County in Wu State at that time, and since then he has been out of control, and he has been madly infatuated with this girl surnamed Han.
However, although the Han family is also well-known in Jingzhou, and the Han family is prosperous, there are outstanding talents in Jingzhou's political, military, and business fields, and their strength should not be underestimated. But compared to the Lu clan of Wu County, the Han clan, the head snake, is really not enough.
But Lu Jian still became close to Han Ying.
This incident even made Lu Kang dissatisfied with him.
Later, the Han family broke the law. The patriarch of the Lu clan asked Lu Jian to divorce his wife, who had been married to him for many years, in order to prove the innocence of the Lu clan to the high-ranking members of the Wu State.
But Lu Jian resolutely refused.
Later, his wife was suspected of the crime of rebellion and rebellion, and he was also implicated and forced to be dismissed. In this case, he still does not leave his beloved wife. And since then, Lu Jian has never returned to Wu County. Instead, he settled in Jingzhou with his wife and lived a very fulfilling life.
After Zheng Sheng listened, he looked very unsatisfied.
Lu Xian looked at his expression, a trace of doubt flashed on his face, and then turned into relief.
"Okay, after all that I've said today, it's getting late, you should go back."
"Okay."
Lu Xian sent Zheng Sheng to the door. Looking at his distant back, he muttered: "The past is in the past, the children don't know, it's okay!" ”
