Yang Ting said: "When I saw the post of the Metropolitan Governor just now, it seems that there is still Lu Shimeng?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "Yes." I was thinking about meeting him and hearing what he had to say. I wanted to kill Zhang Quan and Huang Wanshi, and I must have frightened him, so I came to see me immediately regardless of the ridicule of others. ”

Zhang Yu said: "Metropolitan Governor, if Lu Shimeng wants to join his command, he might as well accept him." In the future, during the Northern Expedition, he can also persuade other people in his Lu family, and maybe he will have another useful chess piece in the hands of the Grand Governor. ”

Everyone agreed with Zhang Yu's opinion this time, and Li Fu said: "We must also prevent him from repairing the plank road and secretly crossing Chen Cang." I still don't trust him very much. ”

Cheng Yue nodded and said, "I know it in my heart." ”

Cheng Yue said again: "Zhang Gui, Ling Zun's sixtieth birthday has been delayed for a long time, and it can't be delayed any longer. The day after tomorrow, I will personally visit the door to pay homage to my birthday, you go back and tell the old man, don't let him be too extravagant, treat me as his other son. ”

Zhang Gui saw that Cheng Yue was still thinking about this matter in his busy schedule, and he was even more moved, and got up to give Cheng Yue a salute, and his heart blossomed. Cheng Yue personally came to the door to pay his respects, and this heavy gift made him shine at home more than anything else.

All the civil and military forces were deeply envious of Zhang Gui being so favored by Cheng Yue. After talking for a while, they all took their leave.

Cheng Yue ordered someone to ask Liu Yu to come in through the side door first, so as not to let others see it.

When Liu Yu heard that Cheng Yue wanted to see him, he was secretly proud in his heart, he took a dangerous move but it was also a wonderful move, and finally let Cheng Yue be the first to see him. Although he couldn't go to the front door publicly, being the first to be summoned by Cheng Yue was enough to make up for him.

Liu Qi, under the leadership of one of Cheng Yue's servants, came to Cheng Yue's study that had just been arranged.

The study room is very large, and it is a flower hall remodeled. Cheng Yue has a lot of things to put here. Even some of the weapons were stored in a dark room in a corner of the study.

Cheng Yue did not greet Liu Qi. There was no need to meet such a person in his current capacity, and it would make him feel too good about himself to greet him.

Liu Qi is a smart person, he didn't care at all, he happily walked in front of Cheng Yue, and said, "Supervising the imperial history Liu Qi to meet the metropolitan governor." The governor of the capital has made great achievements, and Liu Qi admires him so much that he often hates not being able to serve the left and right. I was able to meet today, and I would like to ask the Metropolitan Governor to mention more. ”

Cheng Yue smiled: "Lord Liu is so polite. How can I afford it? Please be seated and serve tea. ”

A servant woman served tea, Cheng Yue saw Liu Qi take a sip, and then said: "Lord Liu came to me as soon as he came down from the court, he must have some advice, right?" I'm listening. ”

Liu Qi said with a smile: "How dare you advise Er'an in front of the Metropolitan Governor." I didn't have anything else to do here, I just wanted to thank the Metropolitan Governor in person for preserving the Great Song Dynasty and my family's life and property. This kindness, Liu Mouming felt that no matter what the governor ordered in the future, he should obey his orders. Never prevaricate. ”

Cheng Yue sighed in his heart! It is logical to be able to make a project so righteous and strict. And add the gratitude of the picture. Instead of being obscene in a low voice, it seems to be a gentleman's style. Cheng Yue almost applauded him! Old-fashioned treacherous, idol. The civil and military under his command are all decent people, and they don't bother to talk to themselves in such a shameless way.

Cheng Yue suppressed his little excitement and said, "Lord Liu is worthy of being a pillar of the DPRK, and I am afraid that I will have a lot to borrow in the future." I heard that a few days ago, Lord Liu spoke up for me in the court, and I am very grateful. ”

Liu Qi said with a hint of anger on his face: "The governor of the capital doesn't need to thank the officials. That Liumengyan, grasping a little thing that is not worth mentioning, is endless, and wants to erase all the great achievements of the Grand Governor. I don't want to think about it, when he was in danger in the DPRK before, when he left Mengyan to run back to his hometown and hide, who was fighting hard with the Yuan army? He can come back to be Zuo Cheng and enjoy the wealth and glory, whose credit is it? The lower officials were angry for a while, although Liumeng Yangui was the head of the hundred officials, he could only go up and say a few fair words, otherwise wouldn't this supervising envoy be in vain? Liumengyan is a small person, the metropolitan governor does not have to take it to heart, the ministers of the central government, as long as they still have a conscience, they are all towards the metropolitan governor. ”

Huh——!

Cheng Yue really admires this Liu Qi to the ground, no wonder the emperor always likes traitors, this sycophant is just comfortable.

Cheng Yue is embarrassed now. Liu Qi is a person, he can't use it. But with his shameless talent, it's a pity that he doesn't need to, what should he do?

Cheng Yue thought about it for a while and already had an idea. He still had a lot of things, and he didn't have time to listen to Liu Qi's praise anymore, so he said: "Lord Liu, Cheng is not talented, he is trusted by the saint and is in charge of the affairs of the Special Administrative Region. All things are complicated, and the affairs of the DPRK and China cannot be taken care of. In the future, I will not go to the court too many times, Wen Xianggong is a military secretary, and what he can do is inevitably limited. Others like Lord Lu, Lord Zhang, Lord Sun, etc., Lord Liu should also take care of them.

Liu Yue's heart was beating wildly, he didn't expect Cheng Yue to accept him so simply, and unabashedly told him who his allies were, and he would have to turn around in the future and deal with these people well, but he couldn't be on the surface.

Liu Qi said: "Most of the governors have orders, and Liu Qi has no choice." These adults, the lower officials have long been willing to make friends, and they must advance and retreat together with all the adults. ”

Cheng Yue nodded and smiled: "It's still a little uneasy for me to hand over the affairs of the court to them, and now with you, I can do a lot in the court in the future." ”

Liu Qi said: "The whole court has great respect for the Metropolitan Governor, and if there is a villain who dares to slander the Metropolitan Governor, the lower officials will not interfere with him." ”

Cheng Yue smiled slightly, and said, "Tomorrow I have something I want to ask Master Liu." ”

Liu Qi hurriedly said: "What do the governors say to the lower officials, just give orders." ”

Cheng Yue smiled and said, "Do you remember Liu Jiugao?" ”

Liu Yu exclaimed: "Liu Jiugao, a bachelor of Beijing? At the beginning, he was instructed by Wang Yao to write a letter to impeach Chen Yizhong, forcing Chen Yizhong to abandon his official position. Later, in order to let Chen Yizhong come back, the Empress Dowager personally ordered him to be thrown into prison, and personally wrote an edict to remove Wang Yi from his post of Pingzhang. What if the Governor wants to save him? ”

Cheng Yue made a note indifferently and said: "Please ask the adults to write a letter, Wang Yao has already passed away, why bother Liu Jiugao again?" This person should be pardoned as a sign of the official's heart. ”

Liu Qi clapped his hands and smiled: "The Metropolitan Governor is really a high-level man, and his actions are extraordinary. Now that the situation is stable, Chen Yizhong is no longer valued by the saint, as long as the governor wants to release the person, the saint cannot not be allowed. Liu Jiugao is a well-known person in the outside world, and if he can be used by the governor, he will definitely be helped. Xia Guan will write it as soon as he returns, and submit it immediately tomorrow morning. ”

Cheng Yue said with a smile: "Please ask Lord Liu for this matter, tomorrow I will send someone to the Criminal Department to wait for someone to be raised." ”

Liu Qi said: "Don't worry, the lower officials will never live up to the orders of the governor." I don't know which door the next time I meet the Grand Governor, the officials should go? Do you want to take today as an example? ”

Cheng Yue laughed and said, "Lord Liu, you are really a treasure I found." Don't worry, your grievances will not be in vain, the time has come, I have my own appointment.?

What Liu Yu wanted was Cheng Yue's words, he was overjoyed in his heart, and said with a big salute: "The lower officials are only the capital governor and the head of the horse, how can he suffer any grievances.?

Cheng Yue smiled and said, "Okay, you can go back." I won't look for you in the future, don't come here. Maybe I'm going to scold you a few words in the court, just know what to expect. ”

Liu Qi smiled and said: "Governor Dadu, you saved the life of the lower official, and it is natural to serve the governor of Dadu." It's just a few scolds, what's the matter. Governor, I have a daughter."

Cheng Yue hurriedly shook his head and said, "I'll talk about this later, it's too early now." ”

Liu Qi smiled dryly: "Yes, yes." The Governor only needs to remember this, but my daughter is both talented and beautiful. ”

Cheng Yuexin said: Where do I dare to marry the daughter of your old man, with an old man like you, I can't make the court into a miasma?

The two gossiped for a while, and Cheng Yue served tea to the guests.

Lu Shimeng watched Liu Qi's carriage leave, he didn't know that Liu Qi was actually called into Cheng's Mansion from somewhere else, and he sneered in his heart, Liu Qi really stole chickens and rice, and he would report it to see what he would do in the future.

Lu Shikui had already sent him a letter to reassure him that Cheng Yue had promised that he would never hurt him. He did believe it, but today he couldn't help but panic when he saw Cheng Yue so forcefully ignoring the opinions of others and ordering the execution of a feudal official and a general leading the troops.

Cheng Yue doesn't kill him now, what about in the future? But if you don't kill him, you lock him up? Cheng Yue obviously saw him in the court, but he just swept it away, and his eyes seemed to be a little cold. His life is in Cheng Yue's hands at the moment, so it's better to come and see him. Even if Cheng Yue doesn't see him, at least his etiquette is already thorough, and Cheng Yue won't find fault here.

Lu Shimeng was thinking nonsense, the small door in front of the Cheng Mansion was opened, Shi Xiu walked out, found Lu Shimeng under the watchful eye of everyone, and said, "May I ask Lord Lu?" There is Lord Laolu waiting, and the governor of the capital is invited. ”

The first thing Cheng Yue wanted to see was himself!

Lu Shimeng was frightened all of a sudden, what was going on? Why are you so lucky? What does Cheng Yue want to do?

How could anyone outside the door not know that he was Lu Shimeng's? They all looked stunned and gathered together to whisper.

Lu Shimeng didn't know whether he was happy or frightened, and was invited by Shi Xiu to the mansion. Lu Shimeng tried to inquire with Shi Xiu nervously, but Shi Xiu smiled and said nothing, but led him to Cheng Yue's study in three turns.

After Lu Shimeng saluted Cheng Yue, as soon as he looked up, he saw Cheng Yue looking at him with a smile.

Lu Shimeng didn't have anything to ask to see, so he was embarrassed for a while. I had to say: "My brother asked someone to bring a letter before, and I want to thank the governor for his care in person, so I came to see you today." ”

Cheng Yue smiled and nodded, still looking at him without speaking. (To be continued......)
