Now in the imperial court, with the death of the old ministers of the original several dynasties in the battle of Tumubao, veterans like Hu Hu have always avoided at home due to old age and illness, making Yu Qian faintly have the appearance of the head of the ministers.

There are many reasons why he has the prestige he has today. As early as the Orthodox Dynasty, Yu Qian had a good reputation, and was respected and appreciated by his colleagues because of his integrity; And a year ago, when the catastrophe related to the survival of the Ming Dynasty, he performed outstandingly, made great contributions, and then supported the new emperor, which won Zhu Qiyu's trust...... All these things are gathered together, so that Yu Qian has great influence and voice among the ministers.

It was precisely when Lu Zhen understood this that he thought of trying to persuade him to reverse the statement of welcoming Zhu Qizhen back that was constantly mentioned by the government and the opposition. Because he knew too well what a bad impact Zhu Qizhen's arrival would have on the Great Tomorrow. Just a few years later, the change of the brothers' wall to seize the door caused a lot of consequences, not to mention how unreliable his son Zhu Jianshen, who passed on the throne after his death.

Of course, the more critical reason is that Lu Zhen is worried that after everything develops like history, his situation will become extremely dangerous. After Zhu Qizhen regained the throne, even a high-ranking official like Yu Qian, who had made great contributions to the court and had a prominent position, dared to kill, let alone himself. So whether it's public or private, he has to stop it from happening.

It's a pity that even though he has said it bluntly and seriously enough, Yu Qian still has some concerns, and he can't agree after all. As a scholar who has been deeply educated and nurtured by the ideology of Zhongjun since childhood, it is indeed difficult for Yu Qian to really regard the former monarch as an opponent, and it is even more difficult for him to fall into the well when he is still in danger, so that Zhu Qizhen cannot go home.

In desperation, Lu Zhen had to leave in disappointment, he knew very well that in this way, the result of Zhu Qizhen's return could no longer be changed.

His judgment was quite accurate, even though the Son of Heaven didn't want his brother to come back, but it was not easy to say it clearly. And the ministers of the DPRK and China obviously did not think so deeply, or they thought that this had nothing to do with themselves, and in order to show their loyalty, they did not stop during the Chinese New Year, and kept playing and asking for this matter.

This made the emperor really depressed, but it was not easy to have a seizure, and he didn't get better for the whole year, but he didn't respond to these recitals to welcome back the emperor, and his response was to stay in the middle and not send it, as if there was no such thing.

In fact, if it were a strong king, once he made such a statement, many courtiers would understand his intentions and would not dare to mention the matter again. However, the prestige of Emperor Jingtai is far from this, and the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty are famous for liking to work against the emperor.

This is not counting, what is even worse is that I don't know when it starts, a saying suddenly spread in the capital, bluntly saying that the Son of Heaven actually does not want the Emperor Taishang to return, because he is worried that as soon as he comes, his throne will not be guaranteed, so he can't wait for Zhu Qizhen to die in the north!

As soon as this statement spread, everyone was surprised and couldn't sit still, and for a while, the recital to welcome back the emperor was sent into the palace like snowflakes, and some people also blatantly mentioned this statement, hoping that the Son of Heaven could give an explanation to the subjects of the world.

This time, the emperor was very angry. There are some things that are the right way to see through and not to say that they are broken, and once the window paper is pierced, both parties will become nowhere to retreat.

Zhu Qiyu, who turned out to be quite mild-mannered, was finally furious, and immediately ordered these officials with ill intentions and nonsense to be arrested and imprisoned and interrogated severely. Subsequently, he sent the Jinyi Guard Dasuo to the whole city, which had not been dispatched for a long time, to arrest many people who were still spreading such rumors, and all of them were thrown into the edict prison and tortured until the root of the matter was discovered.

This time, Daxing Prison completely stunned a group of courtiers, and it was only at this time that everyone knew that this matter had indeed touched the bottom line of the Son of Heaven, and many people immediately stopped mentioning this matter rationally.

However, when things have come to this point, it is not that they can pass it without mentioning it, the problem has been laid out in a clear place, and Zhu Qiyu can only face it. And, from a moral point of view, there was only one choice left for him - to welcome his brother back, as the ministers had invited! Even if there are endless troubles in this way, for the sake of his reputation, he can only do it head-on.

And after this incident, the estrangement between the monarch and the ministers was buried, and Zhu Qiyu, who had a good relationship with his subordinates, also became gloomy and suspicious, which was not the blessing of the Ming court.

From the first year of Jingtai to the second year of the year, the entire Beijing court was not very peaceful, and the officials could not really relax because of whether to welcome back the emperor. The only exception may be Lu Jin, who is not a director now, and his Lu family, who don't even go out much.

Since he went to see Yu Qian, but failed to get the desired result, Lu Zhen no longer paid attention to this sensitive matter. Because he has already seen that this matter is a foregone conclusion, and it is not something that he can change. In this case, why should I be in the capital when I shouldn't be in the capital?

Now I should be most concerned about my family, because soon after the Chinese New Year, maybe I will leave Beijing for Shandong, and I don't know when I want to get together with them again.

Therefore, Ren Wai was in an uproar and controversy because of Zhu Qizhen's incident, but Lu Mansion was as peaceful and peaceful as many ordinary people's homes, and lived a normal reunion year.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, the family sat together and had a sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and then kept vigil in the hall in the backyard that burned warm until the first day of the new year, and then they said goodbye to each other for a good New Year.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, when the family greeted them, Lu Zhen smiled and handed everyone the big red envelopes that he had prepared earlier. When people open the red envelope and find that the reward money in it is worth their own three months' wages, they are even more happy, and kowtow again to thank the master for the generous reward.

Although there is still a shortage of money in Shandong, Lu Zhen is not so selfless that he really takes out all his family property to fill this bottomless pit. The opening of the sea is important, but in his opinion, it is still not comparable to the life of his own family. And as soon as he left, the whole house actually had to be taken care of by these people, so rewarding them was also to stabilize their loyalty.

It wasn't until those subordinates retreated happily that Lin Lie and Qinggele came to Lu Zhen to greet him. When Lu Zhen saw them, he also smiled and said Happy New Year, and then took out two red envelopes from his sleeves that were obviously much thinner than those given to his subordinates and put them in their hands.

The two of them don't have any opinions on this, and they are not stingy people. But after opening the red envelope and seeing what it contained, their faces changed again: "My lord, this is ...... I don't dare to accept it. "It turned out that this red envelope was not a silver coin, but two house deeds, the house deeds of Beijing City.

Although the housing prices in Beijing at this time are far less terrifying than those of later generations, these two properties are also worth a lot of money, and ordinary officials may not be able to afford them in their lifetime, let alone the status of the two of them.

Lu Zhen smiled: "You have followed me for many years, and I have nothing to repay except for the background of a brocade guard for you, and I really don't want to go." In fact, I have long wanted to send you these two houses, but after everyone went to Shandong, it was delayed. Now the Chinese New Year is an opportunity, and I can save a red envelope. Don't shirk it, or I won't want to go anywhere. ”

Lu Jin said that to this point, and the two of them couldn't excuse themselves, so they thanked and accepted the deed.

After they said goodbye and left, after Lu Zhen returned to the backyard, he couldn't help but hug Chu Yunrong and said: "It's still my good wife who is thoughtful, and she has already prepared a house for Lin Lie and them, but I, the boss, am really a little sloppy." It turned out that these two mansions were prepared for him by Chu Yunrong.

Chu Yunrong leaned a little lazily into Lu Jin's arms, with a happy smile on his face: "Lu Lang, you have to deal with all kinds of big and small things outside, how can you think about these little things?" Since I am your wife, I naturally want to help you appease the people around you.

"Brother Lin and Qinggele have followed you all these years out of life and death, and they have a lot of hard work, so why don't you treat them well? Moreover, it was not a matter to keep them in the house before, but now they are also officials of the imperial court, how can they always send people under the fence and live with the people in the family? Even if they don't want to say it, what will outsiders think of you as a boss? ”

"Therefore, if there is a good wife in the family, the husband can save a lot of worry." Lu Zhen frowned again as he spoke: "But now that you are pregnant, and your body is a little weak, you should rest more, don't think about it too much, otherwise I will be distressed." ”

"I know that Lu Lang cares about others, I will definitely pay attention to it in the future." Chu Yunrong hurriedly responded sweetly. Recently, her health has improved a lot, and she no longer has to worry about her husband who is far away in Shandong, so she looks much more energetic, and she always has a smile on her face.

"It's snowing again......" The two snuggled up, and after talking for a while, Chu Yunrong suddenly looked up at the sky outside.

Lu Zhen then looked at it, and indeed large snowflakes were falling from the sky, presumably soon this place would be covered with pure snow.

Just as he was about to ask his wife if he wanted to go outside to enjoy the snow, the person in his arms suddenly stiffened, and then his brows quickly furrowed, and he exhaled in a low voice: "Lu Lang, the child in my belly may want to come out......
