At night, Chongyefang Lu's mansion, a carriage slowly stopped in front of the steps of the mansion, several entourages turned over and dismounted, stepped forward and pulled the door, Xiangguo Su Wei walked out of the carriage with a smile, at this time, Lu Qingyuan, who was waiting at the door, hurriedly greeted him, bowed down and said: "Junior, Lu Qingyuan, see the old Xiangguo!" ”

"Is your father here?"

As soon as the words fell, Su Wei caught a glimpse of Lu Zhuo who was standing at the gate of the mansion waiting, he was obviously afraid of being seen by others, so it was difficult to go out to greet him, although the caution was commendable, but this was too cautious, and it was really unnecessary.

Su Wei walked into the mansion door with a smile, "Virtuous nephew, come to disturb me so late, you won't see outside!" ”

"Where! Where! Uncle Shi's visit made the humble house shine, and it was too late for the nephew to be happy, Uncle Shi please! ”

Lu Zuo didn't know why Su Wei came to visit him tonight, although his father and Su Wei had a good relationship, but since his father retired due to illness ten years ago, they basically had no contact, and he had been in the imperial court for more than a year, and he didn't see how Su Wei paid attention to himself, why Su Wei paid special attention to himself during this time, Lu Zuo really couldn't figure it out.

He invited Su Wei to your guest room, the two of them sat down, Lu Zhuo asked people to serve tea, Su Wei stroked his snow-white long beard and smiled: "I am here to congratulate Lu Xian's nephew tonight." ”

"Congratulations?"

Lu Zhuo smiled puzzledly and asked, "Where does my joy come from?" ”

"Congratulations to the virtuous nephew for having a good son-in-law!"

Only then did Lu Zhuo understand that Su Wei was here for Zhang Xuan, and hurriedly asked, "Can you please explain it in detail to Uncle Shi, my nephew is still confused." ”

"Just this afternoon, the saint officially made a decision to make Zhang Xuan the general of the left guard, and the commander of Liyang Tongshou and the envoy of the six counties of Jianghuai, and the title of imperial historian. This is the Sipin general, and he is the general who holds the real power of Jianghuai, how can he not congratulate the virtuous nephew? ”

Lu Zhuo was stunned for a moment, he also heard that Zhang Xuan had been subjected to the most severe debriefing this morning, and the Holy Lord himself attended the interrogation, he was a little worried. Unexpectedly, it was reversed in the afternoon, and Zhang Xuan was sealed high, which really surprised him.

"I can't think of it!"

Su Wei said earnestly: "He was promoted to a high position as a general at such a young age, and he also became a local official, tomorrow the news will come out, I don't know how many people want to recruit him as a son-in-law, virtuous nephew, hurry up!" ”

The reason why Su Wei is particularly concerned about the marriage between Zhang Xuan and the Lu family is not because he cares about Zhang Xuan. Instead, he pays attention to Pei Ju, there is competition in the officialdom, and there is also a secret fight between the families, Su Wei of course knows that Pei Ju is bent on recruiting Zhang Xuan as the son-in-law of the Pei family, and he also sees Zhang Xuan's future upward momentum, Su Wei is very worried that once the Pei family has Zhang Xuan, a military chess piece, the strength will increase greatly, which is not good for the Guan Sergeant clan.

Although Su Wei also hopes that Zhang Xuan can become the son-in-law of the Su family. But he knew in his heart that once the marriage between Zhang Xuan and the Lu family was over. Then Zhang Xuan will definitely choose the daughter of the Pei family, whether he takes the initiative or is forced, and will not consider the Su family.

So instead of Zhang Xuan being pulled away by the Pei family, it is better to sit on the marriage between Zhang Xuan and the Lu family.

In addition, the Lu family is a Hebei scholar clan, and it is the weaker party among the major scholar clans. Su Wei and the Lu family have a close relationship, and there is even a marriage (Lu Zhuo's uncle Lu Tai's wife is Su Wei's sister), once the Su family and the Lu family form an alliance, Zhang Xuan will naturally favor the Su family.

It is precisely for these reasons that Su Wei is particularly enthusiastic about the marriage between Zhang Xuan and Lu. I want to arrange this marriage, so as not to be robbed by the Pei family.

Lu Zhuo sighed and said: "Of course I hope to have a good son-in-law like Zhang Xuan, but Xiangguo also knows that the Cui family is resolutely opposed to this marriage, and I just take a little care about the relationship between the Lu and Cui families." ”

"Why is the Cui family opposed? What does this have to do with them? Could it be that Mrs. Ling objected? ”

"It doesn't matter to my wife, because Qing'er originally planned to give it to the Cui family, but then the marriage didn't work out, Uncle Shi should have heard about that incident, that is, the incident of Qing'er going to Beihai County, which made the Cui family very angry, and threatened that if Qing'er married Zhang Xuan, the relationship between the Lu and Cui families would be one and two, so I was very distressed about this matter."

Su Wei shook his head secretly, how could Lu Shen have such a promising son, he was too weak, no wonder the Lu family couldn't get up, the head of the family was so weak, could he still count on others?

Su Wei sneered, "Although Cui Zhao is the head of the Boling family, he may not be able to cover the sky in the family with one hand, for the sake of his son's little face, he will break Cui Lu's friendship for a hundred years, do you think other elders of the Cui family will agree?" ”

Su Wei nodded at Lu Zhuo at the most critical point, Lu Zhuo suddenly woke up, the real power of the Cui family is in the hands of the Elders, Cui Zhao can't be the master at all, he actually took his intimidation seriously, Lu Zhuo was secretly ashamed, he hurriedly gave a deep salute, "Nephew authorities, thank you Uncle Shi for the order!" ”

Su Wei saw him wake up, secretly happy in his heart, and smiled slightly: "Marriage always has a medium, I guess Zhang Xuan hasn't found a medium yet, or I will be the matchmaker, will the virtuous nephew accept it?" ”

Lu Zhuo was even more happy, if Su Weiken came forward, Cui Zhao would have to give face no matter how dissatisfied he was, at this time Lu Zhuo finally made up his mind and gave a salute again, "Uncle Shi can come forward, and the little nephew is grateful." ”

In any case, Su Wei wanted to be deeply involved in this marriage, and he must not let anyone destroy it, he thought about it and said, "I will find an opportunity to hint at Cui Zhao, don't tell him about it in a hurry." ”

"My nephew understands, my nephew will listen to Uncle Shi's arrangement!"

Su Wei returned to his mansion, it was already late at night, but Su Wei was not sleepy, he was still thinking about Zhang Xuan's matter, this afternoon he saw the proposed decree of the Zhongshu Sheren, one of which is to add the title of the imperial historian, which means that he can supervise the local government, in a sense, it is to grasp the military and political power of Jianghuai, and then think of the Yan King Yang Qi is inspecting Jianghuai, and the intention of the saint to promote Zhang Xuan is obvious, that is, to prepare for the ascension of the kings.

Although Su Wei wants to make some fuss about the marriage between Zhang Xuan and the Lu family and enhance the status of the Su family in Zhang Xuan's heart, it is obviously not enough to rely on this matter alone, he must continue to increase his weight.

Thinking of this, Su Wei instructed his subordinates: "Go and find Shichiro for me!" ”

Su Wei's mouth of the Su family Qilang is his grandson Su Dingfang, after the hero meeting, Su Lie entered the Yue Wangfu under the arrangement of his grandfather Su Wei, and became the Qianniu preparation of the Yue King Yang Tong, Su Lie is currently living in the Su Mansion, he has not rested, and he heard his grandfather summon him to hurry over.

Su Dingfang walked into his grandfather's study, knelt down and kowtowed, "Grandson to meet grandfather!" ”

"Get up!"

Su Wei smiled gently, "I want to ask you something. ”

Su Dingfang stood up and stood in front of his grandfather with his hands down, Su Wei asked, "I remember you once said that your relationship with Zhang Xuan is very good, is that so?" ”

"My grandson and he hit it off at first sight."

"Have you seen him these days?"

"Back to my grandfather, my grandson just came back from Chang'an with His Royal Highness King Yue yesterday, and I haven't had time to meet my friends yet."

"If you don't say it, I'll forget."

Although Su Wei wanted Su Lie to take the route of King Yue, but now Su Wei has changed his mind a little, it seems that the Holy Lord chose King Yan as his heir, so his grandson should be close to King Yan.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Zhang Xuan will soon go to Jianghuai to suppress bandits, and I hope you will follow him as well." ”

Su Dingfang was stunned, "Grandfather won't let his grandson follow His Royal Highness King Yue anymore?" ”

"Following His Royal Highness King Yue can let other brothers replace you, but a manly husband should still make meritorious contributions on the battlefield."

Su Dingfang couldn't hold back the ecstasy in his heart, and hurriedly knelt down, "Grandson is willing to go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions!" ”

Su Wei smiled slightly, "You go to him tomorrow and send him a letter for me by the way." ”

"Grandson obeys!"

Just as Su Wei was teaching his grandson Su Dingfang Dundun, Cui Wenxiang also hurried to his father's study, the window of the study was open, and a large piece of light penetrated into the courtyard.

When the people at the door saw him coming, they were about to report loudly, but Cui Wenxiang hurriedly waved his hand, signaling him not to disturb his father's contemplation.

Cui Wenxiang gently pushed open the door, he did not alarm his father, but stood at the door with his hands down, after a while, Cui Zhao felt something, and when he turned around and saw his son, he couldn't help laughing and said: "When will my son arrive, I don't know?" ”

"The child has just arrived, is the father looking for the child?"

Cui Zhao nodded, pointed to his seat and said, "Sit down!" ”

Cui Wenxiang sat down nervously, he didn't know what was important for his father to find him so late?

"You'll be in office in a few days!"

"The child will go to the ministry to get the official letter the day after tomorrow, and then he can leave at any time."

"I didn't expect you to be the county magistrate, which is very beneficial to you inheriting the position of the head of the family, you have to do some political achievements as soon as possible and make a reputation, understand?"

"The child understands!"

Cui Zhao didn't come to his son to talk about it, he groaned and said: "You seem to have told your father yesterday that Li Qingming is going to Beihai to be an official, is it related to Zhang Xuan?" (To be continued.) )
