"It's better to take care of this kind of thing, let's wait."
When the gods fight, it is often the pond fish that suffers. Before you have absolute strength, don't get involved in these headless things.
Jin Yiwei, these three words look gorgeous, but they represent the most cold and dark part of human nature. Right now, Xie Shen is bent on gaining fame, and he won't wade into this pool of troubled water even if he is in turmoil.
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
However, it was said that in the study of the Lu Mansion here, Lu Yuan, the deputy envoy of Zhejiang, was sitting on an ebony square chair with a grim expression. The man sitting next to him was wearing a flying fish suit and an embroidered spring knife at his waist, and it was Qiao Zhen, the chief banner of the Fusi of Weibei Town, Jinyi.
Qiao Zhen has a habit of wiping the blade in front of people. He slowly pulled out the embroidered spring knife, grabbed the blade with a thick stack of white cloth and began to wipe it slowly.
The atmosphere in the study was almost frozen, and sweat trickled down Lu Yuan's neck and soaked the back placket.
In the end, it was Qiao Zhen who broke the ice and took the lead in saying: "Lu Zhentai's illness is almost cured, it seems that Qiao Mou came at the right time." ā
Zhentai is the title of the envoy, and now according to the envoy Xia Zhishi has returned to his hometown, Lu Yuan is also in charge of the matter according to the inspector, and Qiao Zhen naturally can't find fault with calling him Zhentai.
Lu Yuan saw that Qiao Zhen was not good, so he had to say with a smiling face: "Mr. Qiao is here, and the direct sect is shining." Lu was sick and couldn't go out of the city to greet him, and he hoped that Qiao Zongqi would forgive him. ā
"Oh? In this way, does Lu Zhentai know that he is going to come to Shaoxing? I just don't know who leaked this news to Lu Zhentai? ā
Qiao Zhen's eyes turned slightly, and he happened to meet Lu Yuan's eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly as if he was smiling.
Lu Yuan sighed in his heart, and he was secretly suffering. This Qiao Zhen must have blocked the news all the way from Hangzhou Mansion to Shaoxing, and what he just said was to tell Qiao Zhen that he had known his itinerary in advance.
But the words had already been spoken, and Lu Yuan could only continue to talk about it.
He arched his hand and said: "Mr. Qiao said that Mr. Qiao laughed, Lu also learned from Governor Yao that Mr. Qiao and his party came to Shaoxing, but it was just the front and back feet." ā
Qiao Zhen sighed lightly and said, "I see." And he put his sword into its sheath.
After some temptation, the two sides got to know each other.
For Lu Yuan, he will not let go, and Qiao Zhen obviously wants to open the gap from Lu Yuan.
Qiao Zhen put down the white cloth and flipped his wrist and pinched the celadon teacup to his nose and smelled it, and couldn't help but admire: "It's really a good tea, it is said that Qiantang Longjing is the best tea, Qiao Mou looks, this Yaojiang tea tastes good." Lu Zhentai is accompanied by good tea all day long, so it's no wonder that he has no intention of political affairs. ā
After speaking, he scraped the tea powder with the tea lid and took a sip.
Seeing Qiao Zhen with a gun and a stick, Lu Yuan also surged into his heart with anger.
Qiao Zhen was just a seven-rank general banner, and he dared to sneer at him. Although the judges were not as powerful as the previous dynasties during the Hongzhi period, not everyone could reprimand them at will.
"Mr. Qiao's words Lu didn't understand, Governor Liu, the case of Lu Zhongjing, the salt transport envoy, had already been cut, and Lu had tried his best to mediate at that time, but people were soft-spoken, so you can't blame Lu!"
The clay figure still has three points of temperament, Lu Yuan has endured Qiao Zhen for a long time, if it weren't for Qiao Zhen's flying fish suit, he would have ordered someone to fork it out.
"Lu Zhentai is so angry, do you know that Shou Ningbo is very angry about this matter. Lu Zhongjing is a member of the Zhang family, and he was deposed Shou Ningbo, and there was no light on his face, you think that the palace will let Liu De's house go. (Note 1)
Lu Yuan was shocked. Shou Ningbo Zhang Heling is the younger brother of the queen's mother, who just inherited the title last year, and he was honored for a while. I heard that Lu Zhongjing, the envoy of Zhejiang Salt Transport, was able to make a fat difference by patting his ass. But this Lu Zhongjing was so greedy that he didn't talk about it, and even sold the salt to a few Zhejiang businessmen. Governor Liu wrote to the imperial court to request the dismissal of Lu Zhongjing as the salt transport envoy, and His Majesty also approved it. In this way, the meaning of the so-called palace should be the meaning of the queen's mother.
Note 1: At this time, Zhang Heling's title had not yet been promoted to Marquis Ning.
