Since they have all said it, Lu Zhen no longer concealed it, and said directly: "In the next time I came to Hangzhou, in addition to condolences to the old lady, I was also entrusted by Hu Butang, the Ministry of Officials, and the Kang Governor of Suzhou, to persuade Uncle Yu that you can obey the will of the imperial court." ”

When he said this, Lu Zhen didn't even avoid his gaze, and still looked at Yu Qian fixedly, looking quite honest. This made Yu Qian, who had read countless people, a little surprised, and let out a soft sigh in his mouth.

In fact, since he made up his mind to worry, many colleagues and friends from the DPRK and China have come to persuade him one after another, some of them are out of consideration for Qian's future future, and more of them are entrusted by others and have to come to persuade them. But no matter what the starting point is, as long as it is mentioned, these people will speak with a lot of flickering because of their weak hearts. After all, in this world, the filial piety of the son of man is still very important, and if the parents are lost but the children are not worried, there is always something unreasonable.

But Lu Zhen didn't have a weak heart this time, and admitted everything very frankly, which was indeed a bit unexpected by Yu Qian. Even Yu Mian, who was accompanying him, was also slightly stunned, and then glanced at Lu Zhen with some expectation.

In fact, Yu Mian hopes that his father can be robbed, not only from his own interests, but also because he can see that his father is also loyal to the court. It's just that now there is no reason to convince himself, so he will always insist on worrying.

Yu Qian's surprise was only a blink of an eye, and soon, he shook his head and said, "Yu Qian naturally understands the intention of good thinking." But don't talk about it anymore, I'm up to it. My father gave birth to me and raised me, but I was a son of man, but I left my hometown early to go elsewhere and could not fulfill my filial piety under the knees of his old man, which is a great unfilial piety. If this time I can't even do it after his death, then what is the difference between me Yu Qian and the beast? What face does he have to stand above the court again, and say what loyalty to the king and serve the country? ”

Yu Qian had already said a lot of these words when he faced those colleagues who came to persuade him before. And they often can't say anything more because of that. After all, now that the Ming Dynasty rules the world with filial piety, he has spoken so heavily, can those officials still defend themselves?

Lu Zhen was also stunned by these words, and at the same time understood how firm Yu Qian's mind was. But he didn't give up, because now is not decades later, after all, at that time, the official's desire to win love is really the one who will be pointed out by thousands of people, that is, Zhang Juzheng, a powerful figure like Zhang Juzheng, because of the matter of winning love, it also caused a storm in the city, and finally lost his reputation.

So there will be such a change in a few decades, just because there was a Yang Tinghe in the Zhengde period. At that time, he had already become the head of the cabinet, with a monopoly on power, and he was really above 10,000 people under one person, and he had an excellent reputation. And just when he was standing at the peak of the people, the news of his father's death came.

As a result, Yang Tinghe at that time ignored the retention of the Manchu Dynasty monarchs and ministers, and chose not to take away the love and returned to his hometown in Sichuan. He stayed there for three years, and only when the deadline expired did he return to the court.

It is precisely because of his performance that later generations of officials, no matter how big or small, dare not mention the matter of seizing affection. Because if you have this mind, you will definitely have to ask such a question: "Do you think that you will be more important to the court than Yang Tinghe back then?" Just one word is enough to shame countless people with impure minds.

Fortunately, it is still the orthodox year, and Yang Tinghe has not yet been born, so naturally there is no need to worry about someone making a big fuss about this. After a little silence, Lu Zhen spoke again: "What Uncle Yu said is indeed very reasonable, if you can't even fulfill this filial piety, it will indeed make the world laugh." But...... Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve, and in this father and son, there is even more importance of family and country. ”

"Thinking about your words, it is a bit serious, Yu Qian is just a governor, not a border general, nor a cabinet minister, I am not in the court, and it has no impact on my Ming court." Yu Qian shook his head and said.

There's a big difference between you and not in the court. Lu Zhen screamed in his heart, but unfortunately he couldn't say this, so he had to find another reason: "What does Uncle Yu think of my current situation?" ”

Yu Qian glanced at Lu Zhen with some surprise, not understanding why he asked this question. But soon, he still gave his own opinion: "Today's Ming Dynasty can be described as Haiyan River clear, and the world is peaceful." His Majesty is also a rare benevolent monarch since ancient times, and in addition to the complementarity of the Manchu Dynasty and the virtuous ministers, it is not an exaggeration to say that I am now in the prosperous season. As long as there is no famine, the people of the world will be able to live in abundance. ”

"Uncle Yu really cares about Li Min, and he admires it so much." Lu Zhen said, but the words changed: "But there are some words that are still difficult to agree with." Since Emperor Taizong was driven away by the Northern Expedition several times, I really have no strong enemies, so the national strength is also thriving. Now at this time, I can't say wrong to say that I am a Ming Dynasty and a strong man and a prosperous Tang Dynasty. It's just that this is really the true face of the court today? ”

"What do you mean by that?" Yu Qian's heart suddenly moved, and some thoughts that had been hidden in the past couldn't help but be provoked by Lu Jin's words.

"I was an official in the north, so I had to see some things more clearly. Although the Mongolian people still have not violated our borders, after a hundred years of silence, the minions of these jackals have gradually sharpened. And on the grassland, both food and wealth are limited after all, and they are the descendants of the former Yuan who once entered the Central Plains, does my uncle really think that they will be willing to live such a hard life? ”

"This ......" Yu Qian glanced at the other party a little speechlessly, and it was difficult to answer.

"Besides, I'm the Ming Dynasty myself, the border army is no longer the elite division that can sweep the desert back then. Years of peace have long consumed the ambitions of the soldiers, and even some officials and generals in the border areas have sold illegal salt, iron and even weapons into the grasslands and sold them to the Mongolian people for some petty profits. These are all seen with your own eyes on the ground in Shanxi, and there will be no fake. And in such a situation, once the people are really coquettish, does my uncle think that my Ming can defeat him again? ”

It is not the same as a humble answer, Lu Zhen followed closely and said: "Although there are many drawbacks in the border army, it is still light in comparison. The really serious ones are still in the imperial court. Of course, there are still countless virtuous ministers in the court today, but in addition, there are also treacherous villains who have ascended to high positions. Not to mention anything else, Wang Zhen, who is listed on His Majesty's side, is the biggest threat.

"Uncle, you may have heard that as early as a few years ago, Wang Zhen, a eunuch, tried in vain to provoke a war between my Ming and the Mongolian people. At that time, it was after several hard works that the matter was suppressed. And now, the power of Wang Zhenyi's party is much stronger than it was back then, once he has the same mind again, can the princes of the court and the central government still suppress it? Even if he could, he could stop it again and again, would there still be His Majesty's intentions?

"Today's Ming Dynasty seems to be prosperous and peaceful, but in fact, it has long been in crisis, and if you are not careful, it is a dangerous situation. This is not alarmist, but I hope that Uncle Yu can learn from it. ”

After saying such a big set of words, Lu Jin's mouth felt a little dry, and he didn't care about any etiquette, so he picked up the water bowl at hand first, and drank all the bowl of cold water.

During this period, Yu Qian looked at Lu Jin motionlessly, his face full of surprise. He really didn't expect that Lu Zhen would say such a thing, some of what he said was something he also thought of, and some of it had never been thought about, but now it was broken by Lu Jin.

After thinking about it carefully, Yu Qian felt a chill, the current Ming Dynasty seems to be peaceful and prosperous, but in fact, it has indeed faced an extremely dangerous situation. It can be described as internal and external troubles, and if you are not careful, you may fall into the abyss from which you will never recover.

This kind of thing, even if the officials of the DPRK and China know about it, they will not say it, let alone use it to persuade Yu Qian. This made him feel a little blindsided, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.

After drinking the water, Lu Zhen spoke again: "Uncle Yu, as a son of man, is of course to be filial, but at this time, the imperial court obviously needs a capable minister like you to be the mainstay. To say that the crime deserves death, if it is really at the critical juncture, I also need people like you to stand up and turn the tide!

"In Hangzhou, Ding Wei is just a small filial piety, and pouring everything for the country and the people is considered great filial piety. I think even the old lady Yu will only hope that Uncle Yu will give up your family for the country, instead of staying here and being a filial son who has no moral indebtedness! ”

At this point, Lu Zhen finally stopped continuing, just looked at Yu Qian fixedly, waiting for his response.

Because he believes that Yu Qian, who can leave a name in history, can make a series of correct decisions at critical moments, and can write the blood-boiling "Lime Yin", will definitely make a choice not to disappoint himself! And he has done his best to say everything that should be said and what should not be said.

Yu Qian suddenly laughed: "Shansi is indeed eloquent, and he has the style of Qin Su Zhang, and his words make me a little overwhelmed." But there is some truth in what you say, and now I seem to be safe, and it is indeed not the time to only care about my own family. But it's not a trivial matter to win love, I have to think about it carefully, if there is a funeral at home, I won't leave you. Someone, send off! ”

Yes, having said so much, Lu Zhen still couldn't get a letter from Yu Qian's mouth. However, he could see that Yu Qian was already very moved, and he just couldn't get over a certain hurdle in his heart. Maybe as long as he calms down and thinks about it, he can finally decide.

Anyway, he had done his best, and Lu Zhen didn't say anything more, stood up and bowed, and then said goodbye and left. Behind him, Yu Qian's thoughtful gaze examined him......
