"Weichen Lu Jianying visits the emperor!"

"Excuse me!"

In the huge south study, except for a few princesses and little eunuchs, there are only Li Yunzhong and Lu Jianying.

Li Yunzhong looked at the slippery old fox, and smiled proudly, Look at how you shirk today, thinking of Lu Jianying's bitter face and frowning, Li Yunzhong was happy, and his recently suppressed spirit suddenly relaxed.

"Lu Aiqing, do you know what I came to you today?"

Looking up and quietly seeing the emperor's gloating smile, Lu Jianying suddenly had a bad premonition, and replied calmly: "Weichen doesn't know, please make it clear to the emperor." ”

Li Yunzhong's face showed a solemn look, and he said loudly: "I plan to change the law!" ”

"Change!" Lu Jianying subconsciously repeated a sentence, but the simple two words were like thunder in his ears, wave after wave, which made his head dizzy.

Lu Jianying quickly came to his senses and said secretly: This day is finally here, the change of law is different from foreign affairs, foreign affairs are just a simple study of the Western strong army, and the change of law is to change all the bureaucratic systems of the Han Dynasty, so there will be a lot of impact, especially for the Qingliu faction, they will only say that they will not do it, and as long as the law is changed, do not say, the two are natural rivals.

Li Yunzhong said slowly: "I have already planned to set up a new department to issue new policy measures, Lord Lu is the first assistant of the cabinet, and the person in charge of this new department is none other than you!" ”

Lu Jianying seemed to be in a furnace, cold sweat instantly soaked his whole body, and his body shook twice before he replied: "Weichen is only a shallow learner, I am afraid it is not enough to take on this important task, please choose another virtuous person." ”

How could Li Yunzhong easily let it go. Stubbornly asked, "Could it be that Lu Aiqing doesn't want to worry about me?" This is a fat difference, and all the content of the changes comes from it. Lord Lu, as the first assistant, would be too unreasonable to miss it. ”

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......" Lu Jianying replied tremblingly: "Don't hide it from the emperor." The old minister's body has been sick, and he has been infected with wind and cold in the past few days, and he is afraid that he will be weak, and there are many capable ministers in the court, and the emperor can choose the best. ”

Looking at Lu Jianying, who was full of red light, Li Yunzhong couldn't see where he was sick, and continued to bluff: "Needless to say, Lu Aiqing is erudite and talented, and he should take on this important responsibility." Go back and get ready. ”

"This ...... Wechen retires! ”

After Lu Jianying left, Min Shu, who was dressed as a palace maid, jumped forward and asked, "Does the emperor really plan to let Lu Jianying be responsible for changing the law?" ”

Li Yunzhong said with a smile: "This old fox will not take office, you wait, within three days, this old fox will be sick, I don't know if he can fool the past." ”

Min Shu asked innocently: "The emperor knows that he wants to pretend to be sick, does Lu Jianying still dare to fool you?" ”

Li Yunzhong explained: "He is not fooling me, he is fooling his protégés. These bastards only daydream, and a small half of your Qing Dynasty is destroyed in their hands. ”

"Then the emperor didn't kill them directly!" Min Shu frowned.

Li Yunzhong didn't want to explain any more, so he changed the topic and said with a smile: "I heard that someone below has found your father." Would you like to see it? ”

Min Shu jumped up and said excitedly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" I want to see Amma...... It's time to call it Daddy...... How is he now? ”

Li Yunzhong said: "I called someone over!" ”

"Come on, Xuan Tangliang!"

Less than a few breaths. Tang Liang wore a military uniform, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty." Wechen Tang Liang meet! ”

"Excuse me, I ask you. What kind of county king can you find? ”

Tang Liang got up and said with a smile: "Yes!" It turned out that the emperor had already known the Tao, and Wei Chen found him in the teahouse, when he was listening to a book with a group of porters, it was difficult for him to be a county king, but he mixed with these ninth-rate characters, and chatted very happily. ”

Min Shu was very excited, revealed her father's background, and said with a smile: "My father is like that, when he was a prince in the past, he often wore a shoulder and took a fan out of the house to hang out, and he walked all day, and those coarse tea and light rice were also sweet, he ...... He really has no ambitions. ”

Tang Liang had long known about the existence of Lu Dao Shushu, and flattered: "Yes, even the prince is unwilling to do it, it is indeed unambitious, this kind of person is no threat to the Han." ”

Li Yunzhong saw Min Shu's excited and nervous appearance, and teased: "If I kill him, I won't personally order him to find him, don't worry, I won't be difficult for your father, if he is willing to belong to the big man, I will treat him well." ”

"Xie Lu, Emperor Xie!"

"What's your name? It wasn't called that last night. ”

"Emperor Xie Luxie...... Husband. ”

Tang Liangdang didn't hear anything, and asked, "Does the emperor plan to receive it?" Weichen can take him into the palace immediately. ”

Li Yunzhong thought of Manren, and his heart was uncomfortable after all, so he shook his hand and said: "You take Min Shu with you, I won't see him, so as not to be unhappy on both sides, by the way, arrange a house for him." ”

Tang Liang signaled to understand, this must be an ordinary house, last time the emperor settled Luo Meiwei and Zheng Yan'er, who came back from Nanyang, deliberately added the words of the former Qing Dynasty palace in front of the house.

Min Shu couldn't wait to see her father, so she saluted Li Yunzhong and said coquettishly: "The concubine has retired." ”

"Go ahead!"

Lu Fu

"Come on, quickly prepare a vat of cold water, ask for the coldest water!"

"Come, prepare a few stoves, quick! Fast! ”

Lu Zhonghan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and persuaded Lu Jianying, who was sitting on the ground: "Dad! Do you have to do it? You see there are furnaces all around, do you have it? ”

Lu Jianying smiled bitterly: "The emperor forced me, and the students and friends below also came to force me, there is no way out, what do you think I should do?" ”

Lu Zhonghan hesitated, gritted his teeth, and said, "We can resign!" I don't want to do it either, Dad, you can't stay here anymore, I can't stand it. ”

Lu Jianying's buttocks were already soaked, sweat through his clothes, his white underwear was sticking to his skin, and the sweat on his face was slipping down like a stream, Lu Jianying endured the discomfort and said: "You are the hope of the Lu family, the reason why I endured humiliation in Dahan is for you, if you want to resign, I might as well die directly." Get out of the bush quickly, lest you spoil yourself. ”

"Daddy!" For the first time, Lu Jong-han hated himself for his incompetence. For him, let his father be ruined. And now I have to suffer from such afflictions.

A quarter of an hour later, Lu Zhonghan said to Lu Fu, who was standing aside: "Butler, go and see the master." ”

"Yes, young master!"

As soon as Lu Fu entered the range of the stove, he kept wiping his sweat and said to Lu Jianying, who was sitting with his eyes closed: "Master! Can you still support it? ”

Lu Jianying stretched out his right hand and said in a trembling voice: "Help me up!" ”

"Master, be careful!"

Lu Jianying pointed to the direction of the water tank.

Lu Zhonghan instructed the subordinates beside him: "Quickly carry the stove away!" ”

"Dad, how are you? Do you want to find a doctor? ”

Lu Jianying held the water tank. motioned to the housekeeper to go out, and then explained to Lu Zhonghan: "If I don't get through, you will tell the emperor the truth, the emperor is benevolent and generous, and he will definitely treat you well." ”

Lu Zhonghan burst into tears, shook his head, and persuaded: "Dad, you can't do this, you will really die like this." My son would rather not be an official than be like you. ”

Lu Jianying smiled, touched Lu Zhonghan's face, and said with relief: "Dad, this is for the entire Lu family." You're thirty years old, and you can't afford to drag it on, so help me in. ”

Lu Zhonghan has always been obedient to his father. Don't dare to disobey, you can only close your eyes. Fu Lu Jianying entered the cold water tank.

"Ahh

Lu Zhonghan was startled when he saw Lu Jianying smoking all over his body. Hurriedly jumped into the water tank, lifted Lu Jianying up, and shouted: "Someone! Get a doctor! ”

After the meeting dispersed, a group of officials gathered and whispered.

"The emperor plans to change the law, what should we do, we have to find a way to stop it."

"Yes, today there is a new Ministry of Politics, and the six ministries cannot interfere, which clearly shows that it is a seizure of power."

"Let's still discuss with Lord Lu, strange, why didn't Lord Lu come today?"

"I heard that I took sick leave, hey! It's an eventful time, let's go to Lu Mansion to visit. ”

"Yes, yes! Lord Lu is our spiritual leader, and the emperor has always trusted him, and if Lord Lu takes the lead in petitioning, the emperor will definitely think twice and revoke the change. ”

……

Zhang Zhidong stood at the back of the most arrogance, watching more than a dozen court officials go to the Lu Mansion in a mighty way, and smiled sarcastically, although he was young, but he could see the inside story clearly, thinking that he had nothing to do now, he laughed at himself again, followed the crowd, and wanted to see the excitement.

Today's atmosphere in Lufu is solemn, whether it is the master or the subordinate, they all have relatives in their faces, Lu Jianying caught a cold last night, and he has not woken up until now, the doctor has come wave after wave, each sighs, carries the medical box and leaves, and leaves a sentence: "The old man can't do anything, he can only resign himself to fate!" ”

"Everybody! My father is seriously ill and cannot see guests, so please forgive me! ”

Ye Mingchen walked in the front, and when he heard the words, he took the lead and replied: "Lu Xian's nephew doesn't need to be polite, Ling Zun's condition is okay?" ”

Regarding Lu Jianying's condition, Ye Mingchen didn't believe it, phew! How can there be such a coincidental thing in the world, as soon as the emperor announced the change, the leader of Qingliu here is seriously ill, and he is clearly taking me Ye Mingchen as the lead, this thankless guy, Ye Mingchen does not intend to appreciate it, and today he led more than a dozen protégés and former officials, many of whom are proficient in medicine, to check in person.

Lu Zhonghan revealed his true feelings, and unconsciously shed tears, and replied: "Thank you uncle for your concern, father...... My father's condition was not optimistic, and the doctor instructed him to prepare for the future. ”

Ye Mingchen exclaimed: "It's so serious, I have to go to the emperor in person, so that I can send the imperial doctor to come to diagnose and treat, what do you think?" ”

Lu Zhonghan immediately knelt down and kowtowed a few times, and replied: "Little nephew is grateful, thank you Uncle Ye." ”

"Uncle Ye, please come here!"

Seeing that Lu Zhonghan didn't look like acting, Ye Mingchen was beating a drum in his heart, could it be that Lu Jianying was really critically ill? No, it won't! No, it won't! I'd better save face for him, and I don't have to demolish him in public.

"A few of you stay here, and you follow me in."

"Obedience!"

Zhou Shouyi, the head of the Ministry of Rites, bowed his head and followed behind Ye Mingchen, admiring his teacher's foresight, can you hide it from us, and still fool the imperial doctor?

"Lord Ye, please."

Ye Mingchen entered the bedroom and walked quickly close to the hospital bed, only to see Lu Jianying covered with a thick quilt, his face was pale, his lips were cracked, and the maid kept wiping the cold sweat on Lu Jianying's forehead.

Sima Yi didn't do that back then!

Ye Mingchen didn't expect Lu Jianying to be unconscious directly, even if he wanted to say a few words to tempt him.

"Virtuous nephew, Ling Zun hasn't been sober today?"

Lu Zhonghan said: "No. No matter what the doctor tried to do, my father remained unconscious. Even the dream has not been said, and the last few batches of doctors have asked them to prepare for the future. ”

Ye Mingchen shook his head. Secretly sighed, he couldn't escape this mess, thinking of the emperor's wise, sneering, and angry expression, Ye Mingchen couldn't wait to replace him.

"Since Lord Lu is so sick, this official will enter the palace to meet the emperor and tell the truth."

Lu Zhonghan bowed again: "Thank you uncle, my nephew will never dare to forget his great kindness." ”

"It should be! You're welcome! ”

Not to mention Ye Mingchen's dejected departure from the Lu Mansion, Li Yunzhong, the lord of the palace, is also paying attention to Lu Jianying's condition.

"Say so. Lu Jianying is really sick. ”

Wang Lei looked serious and repeated: "The doctors who left the Lu Mansion all said so, if Lord Lu's condition does not improve before tonight, Lord Lu may never wake up." ”

didn't expect it to be self-defeating, Lu Jianying couldn't help but be frightened, did he still think that I was a Manchu tyrant, and he would behead and exterminate the clan at every turn, and exile his family?

Li Yunzhong did not give up and asked, "What kind of disease does he have?" ”

Wang Lei looked strange. He bowed his head and replied: "Wind and cold, listening to the report of the spies, Lu Jianying behaved strangely last night, and now he is heating by the stove." Jumping into the cold water and taking a bath, could it be because of this that you got sick? ”

Depend on! This old fox didn't even want his life. I was just scaring him, and he even came to scare me once.

"Your Majesty. Lord Ye asks to see! ”

"Xuan!"

Wang Lei saw the emperor nodding to him, and immediately retreated quietly.

Ye Mingchen looked anxious. After entering the south study, he immediately saluted: "Weichen see the emperor." ”

Li Yunzhong asked knowingly, held his right hand weakly, and said with a smile: "No courtesy, Ye Aiqing is in such a hurry." ”

Ye Mingchen said urgently: "Your Majesty, Lord Lu had a cold last night, and now he is terminally ill, and Weichen asks the emperor to send an imperial doctor to diagnose and treat him. ”

"Seriously!" Li Yunzhong's surprise; said: "Yesterday, I also discussed with Lu Aiqing about changing the law, but I didn't expect Lu Aiqing to be so responsible, it must have been him who stayed up all night and planned to change the law, so that the wind and cold entered the body." ”

Ye Mingchen was stunned for a moment, and his grasp of Lu Jianying's pretending illness increased by three points, this Lu Jianying was too uninteresting, he could understand the idea of staying out of the matter, but why didn't he inform me.

Li Yunzhong instructed the little eunuch beside him: "Xiao Shunzi, you immediately announce that three imperial doctors will go to the Lu Mansion for diagnosis and treatment, by the way, there is still a thousand-year-old ginseng in the Internal Affairs Mansion, and let the imperial doctor bring it over." ”

"Slaves obey!"

Ye Mingchen was envious and jealous, this thousand-year-old ginseng was only dedicated to Emperor Daoguang of the Qing Dynasty by the King of Korea, Daoguang has always been regarded as a national treasure and was reluctant to take it, but he didn't expect it to be cheaper now than Lu Jianying.

The thousand-year-old ginseng has already been taken by Li Yunzhong's family, and there are several 'thousand-year-old ginsengs' in the Internal Affairs Office, all of which are six or seven hundred years of ginseng.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Ye Mingchen took a few steps back, bowed and said, "Weichen retreats!" ”

In the Wenhua Palace, the New Deal Department was first established, Shen Baozhen and Zhao Yali were still pacifying the southwest, Zuo Zongtang led the troops to the expedition, Hong Renji was busy entertaining the British, French, and Prussian delegations, and had no time to withdraw.

Looking at the deserted Wenhua Palace, Wang Qinglu sighed: "The new political decree has been solved in thirty-two ways, I don't know what is going on in the place, if it is like here, then the law change will end without a problem." ”

Zhao Liewen was too busy to be idle, and Li Yunzhong wrote a note in the new political and legal decree, and Zhao Liewen and others formulated specific regulations, promulgated them, and then distributed them to all provinces across the country.

Zhao Liewen looked at the information in his hand, and replied without raising his head: "Lord Hong's book is well written, it contains a detailed description of the national conditions of Western countries, we can refer to it." ”

Wang Qinglu shook his head and smiled bitterly, the New Deal Department only relied on what the two of them should do, put down the pen and ink in his hand, Wang Qinglu said with a straight face: "I plan to suggest that the emperor expand the manpower and select officials from the six ministries to supplement the New Deal." ”

Zhao Liewen pondered for a while, raised his head and said: "In this case, the Ministry of the New Deal must have a framework, and Zhang Weikun, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, is our person, so this can be handed over to him, but in this way, the Ministry of the New Deal will become a comprehensive of six ministries, and I am afraid that the rest of the ministries will not agree." ”

Wang Qinglu frowned and asked rhetorically: "We are only responsible for changing the law, not seizing power, and there are as many as three people in the New Deal Ministry, as long as a few of us agree, the others can still turn the world upside down." ”

Zhao Liewen nodded involuntarily, and added: "In addition to the independent six ministries, the New Deal Ministry is supervised by the six ministries, which is indeed a good way to balance, but we have added a lot of constraints to our actions, and the functions of the officials of the six ministries have been weakened, which will definitely cause friction with the New Deal Ministry." ”

Wang Qinglu reminded: "The new Ministry of Politics is only a temporary department, after the reform is completed, the emperor may be abolished, where do we go back and forth, the promotion of the official who should be promoted, and the friction will naturally disappear." ”

Zhao Liewen continued to look at the book in his hand.

Wang Qinglu found a blank letter, wrote it in less than half an hour, and solemnly put it into his sleeve, intending to find the emperor to tell the truth whenever he had time.

A small official held a letter and bowed to Wang Qinglu who was closer: "Lord Qiyu, this is a recital returned by the Ministry of Rites, please take a look." ”

Wang Qinglu took the fold, and saw that it was all abusive, and said angrily: "This Ministry of Rites is so bold, the establishment of a women's school is an order of the emperor, and the Ministry of Rites dares to refute it, how can it be reasonable!" ”

Zhao Liewen took the fold and looked at it roughly, and said with a smile: "Lord Shangshu Ye of the Ministry of Rites has been busy with the etiquette of the Han Dynasty, I think this is a low-level official who reviewed it privately, and the official turned a blind eye, took it and sent it back, tomorrow morning, we will present it to the emperor and give them a dismount."
