After visiting Liu Yuliang, Lu Yuan came to the house of his father-in-law, Wailang Tang Jin, a member of the military department.

As the son-in-law of the Tang Mansion, he naturally had to live in the Tang family when he stayed in Beijing.

Father-in-law Tang Jin was on duty in the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War, so he naturally knew that Lu Yuan was going to be promoted to the rank of official.

Even, Tang Jin personally saw Lu Yuan's rise from President Qian to Dusi and then to the guerrillas.

When Lu Yuan came to the Tang Mansion, the housekeeper of the Tang Mansion actively welcomed Lu Yuan in: "Uncle is back!" ”

Tang Jin had changed into his regular clothes at this time, and waited for Lu Yuan to dine together at home.

As soon as Lu Yuan came in, he saw Tang Jin, and hurriedly said, "I've seen my father-in-law." ”

"Sit down and eat."

Tang Jin turned around and sat down on the top first, and Lu Yuan naturally sat down on the bottom after thanking him.

Because Lu Yuan's brother-in-law Tang Wenyun returned to his hometown to prepare for next year's township test, and Lu Yuan's son-in-law is no longer what it used to be, Tang Jin also personally accompanied Lu Yuan to dine.

Tang Jin was still quite embarrassed in his heart, after all, the son-in-law in front of him was already a fourth-rank military attaché, but he was only a fifth-rank civil official.

Although civilian officials have always been heavier than military officials, he has been in the military for more than ten years before he can be promoted to the fifth rank officer of the military department, and this is still the light of his son-in-law, otherwise the bigwigs in Beijing would not have thought of him and promoted him from the chief to the position of a foreign officer.

What's more, Lu Yuan was actually promoted to three levels in a year, and even one level in the future, which Tang Jin himself couldn't have imagined.

Tang Jin could see that his son-in-law's future was immeasurable.

Therefore, Tang Jin now feels that his daughter is not married in vain, and thinks that it is good that he didn't listen to his wife's words and divorce the Lu family.

However, Tang Jin asked himself, he didn't expect Lu Yuan to have today.

But he didn't expect that Tang Jin knew that if he wanted to go further in officialdom in the future, he would have to rely on his son-in-law.

Therefore, Tang Jin also asked Lu Yuan: "Have you entered Beijing to face the saint this time?" ”

"Back to my father-in-law, my son-in-law has already met Your Majesty."

Lu Yuan replied.

Tang Jin nodded, laughed, and personally served Lu Yuan a dish: "You are a promising, the Lu family will be regarded as a general in the future, now Your Majesty values you, and the future is naturally immeasurable, but you yourself have to be more careful, the sword and gun have no eyes, and now you are right to choose to stay in Shandong, although it is easy to make meritorious contributions in a border town, it is also dangerous." ”

"That's what my father-in-law said."

Lu Yuan is still grateful to Tang Jin, although he knows that Tang Jin did not agree to let Tang Ying and himself divorce may be just for his official reputation, not really looking down on himself, but this is not important, the important thing is that when he wanted to donate money to run a military attaché, his father-in-law did make a great effort.

At that time, he was a commoner who couldn't deal with the magnates in Beijing at all, but fortunately, his father-in-law Tang Jin was a civil official in Beijing, and he had the opportunity to make friends with Liu Yuliang by relying on his brother-in-law Tang Wenyun.

If it weren't for this, Lu Yuan would not have been able to reach his current position.

"Except for Your Majesty, who have you seen?"

Tang Jin asked curiously.

"Yuan Fu and the Yang Pavilion Department of the Main Army Department have met," Lu Yuan replied.

Tang Jin was suddenly a little jealous of his son-in-law.

After all, he has been an official in Beijing for more than ten years, and he has given a lot of gifts to these bigwigs in the DPRK every year, but he has not been summoned once, and now his son-in-law is just a guerrilla general, and he has already met Yuanfu and Yang Gebu, how can he not be jealous.

Tang Jin laughed helplessly: "Sure enough, the situation has changed at this time. ”

Lu Yuan knew what Tang Jin meant in his words to say that as the situation became more and more chaotic, the status of military generals was gradually improving, so he replied with a smile: "It was precisely because of this that my son-in-law thought of this at that time, and felt that it was always good to have a military general in the family. ”

"You made the right decision! As a father, I don't know about marching and fighting, and I can't help you in this regard, but I can help you in the court. ”

Tang Jin said this, in fact, he was hinting at Lu Yuan and asking Lu Yuan to help him get promoted.

Lu Yuan also understood, and said with a smile: "It is also the father-in-law who is an official in the court, and the son-in-law has just been relieved to be a military general, Yuanfu there, the son-in-law has already mentioned his father-in-law, Yuanfu means that you don't get too close to him first, it is better to do it right with him, after all, so that Your Majesty will rest assured, with the meaning of the son-in-law, father-in-law, you might as well be a lonely minister now, Your Majesty will naturally use you sometimes, or in the eyes of the son-in-law, father-in-law, you had better choose to be released, now Your Majesty uses the ministers of the governor, if the father-in-law does not bring a soldier, I am afraid that it will be difficult to rise in the future." ”

"I've thought of this place as a father, so let's take it one step at a time."

Tang Jin laughed as he spoke, he really didn't expect that one day if he wanted to go further in the officialdom, he would have to rely on his son-in-law.

Next.

Lu Yuan just listened to Tang Jin talk about how he studied hard in the cold window back then, and how he was the first in the imperial examination.

It's not a thing to write about.

That night, Tang Jin went back to his concubine's room to rest, because Lu Yuan went to Beijing and the people who did not serve followed, and also arranged for Lu Yuan to go to the concubine's room to rest, and said: "Her name is Hu Mei'er, let her serve you these days; This person is extremely charming, for the father, and can only see what can be done in the end, but this woman is indeed very familiar with the things in the room, and can teach you, and you can also teach the baby when you go back. ”

Lu Yuan didn't expect that his father-in-law would send him a woman, and said in his heart: "How can I tell Tang Ying when I let myself go back, forget it, I'd better tell the truth." ”

Lu Yuan originally wanted to sleep directly outside the door, he didn't dare to mess with flowers and grass outside casually, but after thinking about it, forget it, so as not to catch a cold, there are no antibiotics in this era.

Lu Yuan simply pushed the door in, and was stunned to see a woman with a long face and a slender jade neck with a three-point appearance in the Western Regions, wearing only a thin spring shirt, leaning on the edge of the table, her hair was loose and loose, and a few strands of green silk fell out, the bandeau was half snow-white chest, two protrusions, and a snow ditch hidden under the bandeau.

"You must be a fox?" Lu Yuan asked.

"It's the slave family! Uncle, can you be thirsty? The slave family served the uncle to drink tea. ”

With the glutinous voice, Lu Yuan felt that he was suddenly half soft, as if he had been beaten with anesthetic, and it was as if he had drunk a few glasses of wine, and his feet were on the ground as if he were stepping on cotton, and his eyes were hungry for a while, and he waved his hand and said, "No need!" I'll go to bed first, please. ”

As he spoke, Lu Yuan stumbled to the edge of the bed with his hands on the table.

"Uncle, be careful!"

Hu Mei'er helped Lu Yuan to lie down on the bed, and began to untie Lu Yuan's clothes.

"I'll do it myself!"

Lu Yuan said.

"The slave family also came by himself."

As soon as the fox's words fell, the spring shirt suddenly slid to the ground.

This fox girl didn't have anything at once, and only blocked it with her hands.

Bang!

When this white fox came over, Lu Yuan picked up the handcuff, loaded the paper shell bullet, and fired a shot at the wall.

Fox Meier subconsciously pulled out the hairpin on her head, and her eyes became fierce.

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, reloaded the paper shell bomb, and pointed at Hu Mei'er: "Tell me, what is your origin?" How can a woman hear a gunshot and not scream first, but pull out the hairpin on her head? ”
