[There is also a chapter that is updated around two o'clock in the afternoon, and I can't catch it out at night.] 】

It began to rain after nightfall, not much, and the thin rain silk was the spring rain of apricot blossoms that were wet in the Qingming season.

Han Gang got up to say goodbye, and Lu Huiqing kept him a little, and then asked his subordinates to send him out.

After Han Gang left, the two brothers of the Lu family did not move, and still sat in the side hall, but they were silent for a while. The subordinate came in to clean up the lamp, and the congealed atmosphere in the hall made him stiff and change all the candles in the hall with new ones, and then hurriedly walked out of the hall, as if there was a ghost chasing after him.

The window lattice of the side hall was obliquely supported, and the drizzle outside the house could not be thrown in, but the faint yellow and flickering candlelight in the house reflected the shadows of a few plantains in the courtyard on the courtyard wall. The plantain was gently shaken by the breeze and drizzle, but the black shadow falling on the courtyard wall was dancing with teeth and claws, like the demons and monsters on the shadow play.

Lu Huiqing looked through the slightly open window, looking at the unpredictable pupil ghosts on the newly painted courtyard wall, and secretly laughed at herself in her heart. But as long as it's used for yourself, it doesn't matter if you can't see the light, it's okay to deal with the ghosts.

Lu Shengqing didn't know how long he had been sitting, his legs and feet were a little numb, and he never saw Lu Huiqing's explanation of Fang Cai's affairs, and finally couldn't help it: "Although Han Gang is not an idle person, his brother is ready to participate in politics, why do you need to come here?" ”

Lu Shengqing's slow reaction does not mean that his intelligence is poor, Brother Fang Cai and Han Gang nakedly exchanged interests, which made Lu Shengqing feel embarrassed from the bottom of his heart. His brother is a governor!

"Feeling ashamed? If you look at it, you won't be able to. Lu Huiqing didn't care, he understood one thing very early, compromise is indispensable in officialdom.

Although he knew that Han Gang was by no means simple for a long time, and he raised his evaluation of him again and again, but Han Gang could come to this point so quickly, and Lu Huiqing had to be surprised.

Especially Han Gang's behavior in the weapons prison made Lu Huiqing sigh to himself. Having a splendid belly can be regarded as the harshest evaluation, and he should have a different world in his chest. Through buoyancy to trace the source, as well as plate armor, iron ships, and spaceships, which have been built or are still working on, all these things make Lu Huiqing understand that in the eyes of Han Gang, who upholds the theory of Gewu, everything in the world is different from ordinary people.

Is it really a shame for such a character to be treated as an equal? Lu Huiqing doesn't think so anymore.

Of course, Lu Shengqing's attitude is not strange. The content of his negotiations with Han Gang Fangcai was indeed too naked, like a pawn of a peddler who must fight for baht, and he lost the demeanor of a doctor.

But Han Gang is not Zhu Yuqing, and Lu Huiqing is not Zhang Ji, he will be tactful when he should be tactful, and he will be straightforward when he should be straightforward. The 'thrush is deep and shallow' style of communication is actually worthless in front of two officials who attach importance to reality and hate entanglement and tediousness.

Skip the boring Wan Zhuan and go straight to the heart, this kind of confrontation is actually more frank. Although it is not the generation of burning the qin and cooking the crane, it can be placed in the current relationship between the two, and the so-called tongue Huaqing Yan and Confucian romance can only be blown away by rain and wind.

"Wang Jiefu couldn't suppress him back then, and he did something wrong the day before yesterday as a brother. There is no shame in correcting it now. Lu Huiqing looked at his younger brother, who was still full of displeasure, "If you keep Han Gang out from the beginning to the end, you will regard him as an enemy." Han Jiang, Feng Jing, Wang Jue, Wu Chong, what will they think? It must be mostly joyful. ”

"But Han Gang didn't agree after he got to the end!" Lu Shengqing said angrily, he was angry for this reason, "After talking about the real method for a long time, he didn't even nod his head!" ”

"Does Han Gang plan to be a lonely minister for the rest of his life? If you want to develop, you must let Zhang Zai go to Beijing to give lectures, so there is no need to worry. Lu Huiqing didn't say anything more, and changed the conversation: "In this case of rebellion, the Son of Heaven will definitely not let Wang Jiefu be involved." But Han Gang, as Wang Jiefu's son-in-law, could not let this case go unchecked. Feng Dangshi, Wu Chongqing and others may also have some ideas that they shouldn't have, so this is also a rare opportunity. ”

Lu Shengqing's heart moved when he heard this, he turned his head to look out, leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "Can you invite the two of you out of the city this time?" ”

"It's difficult......" Lu Huiqing sighed lightly. It has only been half a year since he sat in the position of governor of the government, but it was enough for him to become obsessed with the feeling of controlling the political situation in the world, and he was always thinking about further controlling the court, "But if you don't have an axe and saw, if you want to pull out a tree, you don't have to rely on brute force all at once, but you have to shake and shake it little by little first." ”

"What should I do with the real law...... Lu Shengqing said knowingly, this bill is the key to Lu Huiqing to break away from Wang Anshi's shadow and become the core of the new party, not like now, who is still under the shadow of the one who is far away in Jiangning.

"That's going to be the last thing." Lu Huiqing's voice suddenly became slight, as if she was talking about the helplessness in her heart.

If the situation is different, for example, Feng Jing was driven out of the capital; Wang Qi honestly made wall hangings; Although Han Jiang is the prime minister, he still cannot control the government; Then Lu Huiqing may try to make Wang Anshi unable to come back for the rest of his life, and he Lu Huiqing will always control the overall situation of the law change.

But the reality of the situation made him not and could not breed the idea of being an enemy of Wang Anshi. Feng Jing, Wang Qi and even Wu Chong are not willing to be lonely, although Han Jiang is temporarily sharp, he will never be willing to be dull. In the current situation, Lu Huiqing is bound to maintain Wang Anshi's new party's red banner in order to maintain the stability of his position in the political hall.

"The practical method must be let go, and if there is no appeasement in the political hall, it cannot be implemented."

Lu Huiqing said. Some time ago, he was indeed a little conceited, after all, he was a character who had been fighting with Wang Jiefu for several years, and it was not so easy to catch them. However, the plan for formulating the practical method in advance cannot be wrong, as long as Feng Jing goes, it can be implemented in the world immediately.

……………………

When I was about to get home, the rain suddenly turned rapid, and the drizzle, which had been like a silk fog and was so light that it was almost imperceptible, hit the bluestone paved road with a roar, making the road ahead blurred.

However, in this slightly secluded alleyway in front of Han Gang's house, two lanterns will be hung in front of the door of each house at night for lighting. The candlelight in the green gauze lantern pierced through the rain and fog, reflecting the night, scattering a circle of concentric halos.

The rain continued to fall down the tarpaulin raincoat, and the raindrops hit the hat hard, and the crackling was endless, and you could feel the weight falling straight down from the rain clouds in the sky.

In the spring, the weather is changeable, especially during the rainy Qingming Festival, and the officials accompanying them will carry a bag of oilcloth clothes behind the saddle, which they wear to protect themselves from the wind and rain when riding horses, unlike ordinary people who only wear robes.

However, the efficiency of the old oilcloth clothes to protect from the wind and rain was not high, so Han Gang mentioned it as early as when he was in Qinzhou, and imitated the style of raincoats and ponchos in later generations, and made a few pieces each. I don't know how it spread, and now even the oilcloth clothes sold in the capital have all been changed to the style of later generations. It's just that now I'm afraid no one will know about it, this is the result of his casual remarks by Han Sheren, who sentenced him to be the weapons supervisor.

A group of riders, either wearing ponchos or raincoats, turned into the alleyway in front of Han's house.

Looking ahead, across a section of the alley with a halo of light, the group lifted the reins lightly and slowed down.

Even during the day, the streets are lazy and quiet, and at night, they become even quieter. The horseshoe nailed to the shoe stepped on the bluestone slab, and there was a crisp sound. It's just that the sound of hooves is no longer so urgent, as if it is a walk, it slows down, da-da... It clicks and doesn't disturb the neighbors.

The fourth in the east of the alley is the Han family. In the whole street, there are only six households. Although it is not as good as a wealthy mansion that can occupy half a square by one household, the area is actually not very small. It is far more spacious than a small street two or three hundred steps long, squeezed into hundreds of households.

Han Gang jumped off the horse in front of the house, and the two servants of the Si Yan were running over to lead the horse, and they saw a slender figure coming out of the small door.

"Yun Niang, why did you come out?"

"Third brother, you won't come back this morning, the three sisters are very anxious, so the slave will come out to take a look."

is almost eighteen years old, but Yun Niang, who has been favored by Han Gang for several years, is still a coquettish look. Spring nights are still cold, and after it rains, it feels even colder. Han Yunniang's small figure was wearing a hooded cloak, wrapping her body tightly, and only a few strands of hair were naughtily thrown out.

"I went to Lu Jifu's house, and no one came back to inform me?"

As he spoke, Han Gang took off the poncho under the door, and the companion behind him hurriedly handed him a delicate oil-paper umbrella, opened it and walked home. Han Gang likes to play his own umbrella, and this habit is unusual among officials at this time. Some people have laughed at it behind the scenes, but Han Gang Anzhi Ruosu also said in public that when he is promoted to power in the future and has a cool umbrella, it will not be too late for people to open it.

Han Yunniang and her third brother huddled under an umbrella and tiptoed through the empty front yard. When you look up, you can only see the broad and solid shoulders. Pursed his lips unhappily: "Where?" My sister has sent someone to the weapons supervisor to question! ”

Han Gang looked back at the eight companions who had led the horses in with him, and they all looked at them with innocent expressions.

He sighed and shook his head. Among the servants who were brought to the capital to run around at home, several of them were flexibly placed by Han Gang into the ordnance prison as officials. And now the companions who are by Han Gang's side are all honest and obedient, and loyal. It's just that no one is smart enough to remind Han Gang and send someone to inform the family.

"I forgot about it for a while."

"Have you forgotten Sister Nanniang's birthday?"

“…… Of course not! Han Gang said a little panicked.
