Volume 2 The Wind and Rain of the Imperial Capital Chapter 137 My Way Is Not Alone (II)
If Hu Hu still had doubts about Lu Jin's intentions just now, after he said that poem, all the previous suspicions had completely dissipated.
It is said that to understand the essence of a person, you have to listen to his words and watch his deeds, Lu Jin's behavior at the court meeting is enough to explain the problem, and this poem that dissects the traces of the heart is so that people can't help but praise it, so Hu Hu no longer doubts that he has other intentions and is a real person for the country.
After a few praises, Hu Hu asked again: "Have you ever thought about your future?" ”
"In the future? Now that I've offended the prince, I'm afraid this official can't do it, so I really don't know where to go. Lu Zhen smiled bitterly, but there was a faint expectation in his heart. In front of him is the official secretary who is in charge of the promotion and promotion of the middle and lower-level officials in the world, is he just asking this question?
Hearing this, Hu Hu unconsciously glanced at the other party with a smile, and this young man's careful thinking naturally couldn't escape his eyes. But he was not disgusted by this, how many saints in this world could have no desires and no desires? Even if it is him, it is impossible to do it, so how can he ask Lu Zhen to use this?
He didn't break through this layer, but just smiled and said: "If we can't even keep an official like Lu County who is willing to serve the country, then I, the official of the ministry, are too incompetent." Don't worry, the old man will make decisions for you, and you can't lose your official body. ”
"Thank you, Boss, for your attention." Lu Zhen gave up his hand again, knowing that this time his risky approach had finally been rewarded accordingly.
"It doesn't have to be that way. You will stay here for a few days, and after the old man helps you uncover the matter, he will find a more suitable official position for you to do. After Hu Hu finished speaking, he got up and left.
Lu Zhen hurriedly agreed, stood up and saw him off. And after Hu Shangshu left, the steward of his house rushed over and led Lu Zhen and the four of them to the other side of the courtyard to settle down.
After only a few people were left in the courtyard, Lu Zhen slowly exhaled a breath, and there was a hint of excitement on his face. This point fell into Chu Yunrong's eyes, which made her stunned, and she swallowed back the words that she wanted to comfort him, and only said, "You finally got a good result." ”
"yes. This is the best choice for both public and private reasons. Otherwise, if I really help Wang Zhenzhi and others to act as tigers, although I may also get a reward, and my reputation will be completely stinky. In addition, this is also a disaster for Daming, and I don't want to be such a big sinner. ”
"You...... But have you been gambling? Betting that the officials of the DPRK and China will not sit idly by? Chu Yunrong is also a smart person of ice and snow, and he quickly understood the sound outside the strings.
Lu Zhen nodded lightly: "Yes, I know that this will definitely be beneficial, otherwise I can find an excuse not to go to the early dynasty in order to protect myself." However, the previous crisis was beyond my expectations, and I thought that I could leave Beijing for a while, and then wait for the officials of the DPRK and China to work for me to restore my official status. Fortunately, Hu Butang's movements were fast enough, otherwise it would be really self-defeating. ”
Seeing that he revealed his true intentions without concealment, Chu Yunrong was stunned at first, and then he was overjoyed. Does he regard himself as a close person? Otherwise, how could this kind of mind be so detailed with himself? The thought of this sent a blush to her face.
However, Lu Jin, who was all about the future, did not pay attention to this, he was still guessing how the other party would arrange him.

In the dark night, heavy rain poured down, plunging the whole world into chaos.
The official road outside the capital is even darker at the moment, and with such weather and time, this place is naturally empty.
But suddenly, in the distance, there was a fierce sound of horses' hooves. Countless healthy hooves stepped on the potholed road, splashing a piece of mud, but the speed of the dozens of knights did not slow down at all, as if they were in a hurry to go somewhere.
This group of knights is the Jinyi guard team headed by Yang Zhen. Only these guys with special identities can open the gateway to the capital at this time and appear on the official road outside the city.
They were in a hurry not to get to a place in time, but to get away from the capital as soon as possible. Because they know how serious what they have done before, they have offended Dongchang, especially Wang Zhen, and the other party will not give up. And with their identity and strength, staying away from the capital is the best choice.
Yang Zhen, who was constantly spurring the horse under his crotch to gallop, suddenly flashed, and a feeling of uneasiness suddenly hit his heart. Over the years, he has always had a sensing ability far superior to ordinary people, and he will always remind him in time whenever danger is approaching.
When this feeling came out of his life, Yang Zhen, who was in the first place, shouted violently: "Stop!" At the same time, with a strong pull of his hand, with a long neighing of the horse, his front legs jerked up, and he stopped the forward momentum.
The dozens of men who followed him were not slow to react, and after only two steps forward, they grabbed their mounts one after another, and then looked ahead vigilantly one by one. The hundreds of households in their own family have warned in time several times, leading everyone to avoid the trap crisis, so that they have long developed the habit of obeying orders.
And at this moment, on the originally silent road, several arm-thick ropes suddenly bounced up! If they take a step slower, they will inevitably run head-on, and the result will naturally be that people will turn on their backs.
At the same time, dozens of figures that had been hiding on both sides of the road rushed out. But it wasn't until they pounced that they were surprised to find that the trap they had set had failed, and the person who wanted to ambush them had stopped in front of the trap and was staring at them coldly.
This feeling of being recognized made them feel a little overwhelmed for a while. And just when they were stunned, Yang Zhen had already pulled out the saber on his waist, shook the reins, and rushed over with a shake of the reins, and at the same time shouted violently: "Kill!" ”
Since the other party is deliberately setting up an ambush here, it is to take his own life. Yang Zhen has nothing to think about, only you live and die. Everyone behind him also let out a shout at the same time, and rode their horses and slashed at them.
A sudden battle starts faster and ends faster. Before those ambushers could react, they were confronted by dozens of fierce brocade guards who were like wolves and tigers. In a panic in their hearts, they only resisted for a moment before they were slashed and fell to the ground one by one.
And because the other party is cavalry, this group of people doesn't even have a chance to escape. After a few cups of tea, they were slaughtered. It wasn't until the last enemy had been cut down that a few corpses were searched by a few horses.
In the end, it was the person of Jinyiwei, and the body search action was very skillful, and after a while, he found a familiar waist card from a certain person: "It's the waist card of the Zhenfu Division!" ”
Hearing this, a trace of sharpness flashed in Lu Jin's eyes, who was sitting on the horse, but there was not much surprise on his face. In fact, he had already guessed that Xu Gong would make this choice, but he didn't expect the other party to do it so quickly and so absolutely.
"Your Excellency......" The other brothers looked at him with solemn faces, waiting for him to come up with an idea.
Yang Zhen quickly evoked a sneer: "Let's go, it won't be too dull to go to Jiangnan this time." But this matter is enough for him Xu Dudu to have a headache for a while. As he spoke, he smacked the stirrup, and walked through the corpse in front of him.
When the others saw him with such an attitude, they finally calmed down. Anyway, they only listen to Yang Baihu, and as for whether the opponent is Dongchang or their own governor, they don't care at all.
The sound of the horse's hooves rose again, and quickly disappeared. Only the corpses were left on the official road, and the blood that flowed from the wounds was washed by the rain, and it flowed everywhere, like red streams......

When Yang Pu listened to Hu Hui's story, a hint of joy appeared on his old face: "This young man is really one of my generation." This poem is also well done, a good country lives and dies, and it avoids it because of misfortune! Sure enough, it is a word of concern for the country, and it is very arrogant! It seems that we really didn't save the wrong person! ”
Hu Hu smiled and nodded: "What Brother Hongji said is very true. After talking to him, I also felt that this son was extraordinary, such a person, you and I should be retained by the court. ”
"What do you mean?" Yang Pu glanced at the other party and asked.
"It's obviously not enough to keep him alive, we have to keep him in the court." Hu Hu said very directly.
Yang Pu gently stroked his beard with his hand, and was silent for a moment: "Are you planning to let him continue to be an official?" But that Wang Zhen is a character who will be revenged, aren't you afraid that this will hurt him? ”
"So we can't let Lu Zhen go to a place beyond the reach of the whip, otherwise the strength of the Jinyi Guard of the East Factory is enough to kill people."
"Then leave him where we can protect him, like ...... In the city of Beijing? Yang Pu immediately understood and smiled.
"Exactly. And we have to do something more, so that Wang Zhen doesn't dare to harm him easily. Hu Hui added.
Yang Pu was stunned when he heard this, obviously this is not easy to do. Unless it is a number of old ministers like them, there are few people who Wang Zhen does not dare to start. is an ordinary six-part lang, even a high-ranking official at the level of a waiter, and his prince and father-in-law dare to do it.
But after seeing the smile on Hu Hui's face, he shook his head and sighed: "What the hell are you old boy doing again?" You used to have the most ideas among those of us. ”
Hu Hu smiled and was not angry: "No matter what the idea, as long as it works." You said that ordinary people and Wang Zhen dare to deal with them, but there are still people in this world who he dare not offend. I guess you know who I'm talking about, right? ”
The two have been friends for many years, so they naturally have their tacit understanding. Yang Pu only groaned slightly, and then understood: "It seems that you have a specific way." ”
