Lu Fu.

A young man with a long body and a jade body standing as warm as jade stood in the study.

Standing on the opposite side was an old man in his sixties. The old man's beard was half-white, his face was wrinkled, and his eyes looked gentle, but in fact they were sharp and deep.

"The grandson didn't discuss with his grandfather, he made his own decision and went on a setback." The young man bowed his head and pleaded guilty: "Please grandfather punish him." ”

This young man is none other than Lu Chi.

The sixty-year-old man is Lu Chi's grandfather, the first assistant of Daqi, Lu Ge.

The scene that happened in the court shocked Elder Lu Ge very much. However, Lu Ge can be the first assistant, and he has an extraordinary city government and mind. Neither like Chen Shangshu who lost his honor in the court, nor was he as shocked as Zhao Gelao.

In the afternoon of this day, Elder Lu Ge was in the cabinet as usual. It was not until the evening that he returned to Lufu. Not long after he came back, Lu Chi also came back from the palace.

The two grandparents and grandchildren had a tacit understanding and went into the study to "talk".

Lu Ge Lao's eyes swept over Lu Chi's face, and he didn't know what it was like for a while.

Lu Chi is his most valued and favorite eldest grandson, and he is also the future head of the Lu family. Chen Zhan was slightly impulsive and impulsive, and Zhao Qi was a little out of his way and not calm enough. In contrast, Lu Chi was calm and thoughtful, thoughtful and meticulous.

Lu Ge is always proud of his eldest grandson.

I never thought that the eldest grandson would not move, and a move would be such a tricky and headache!

Lu Ge looked at Lu Chi steadily, and only opened his mouth in a deep voice for a long time: "Ziyu, how long has the emperor been preparing for the matter of cutting the domain?" ”

Lu Chi raised his head and glanced at Lu Ge Lao deeply: "Six and a half years." ”

Lu Gelao: "......"

It is now the seventh year of Jianye, and the emperor has been on the throne for more than six years. In this way, the emperor has had this plan since the day he ascended the throne. But he has been holding back. It took several years to control the court little by little, and to train young officials who were promoted to cronies. It is only now that the time is ripe to start working.

This endurance, this forbearance, this scheming, is really shocking.

Elder Lu Ge was silent for a long time.

Lu Chi said in a low voice: "My grandfather has been immersed in officialdom for decades, and now he is the first assistant of the Great Qi and a very popular minister. After the new emperor ascended the throne, he always treated his grandfather with courtesy. ”

"As a courtier, it is a matter of course to be loyal to the country and share worries for the king."

"The matter of cutting the feudal domain is a great benefit to the dynasty. There is no need for grandchildren to say more about the stakes and the stakes will be able to figure it out if you think about it. "The emperor has made up his mind. What to do, please grandfather think deeply. ”

……

The greatest advantage of the Son of Heaven is that he is young.

It is inevitable that a young and ambitious king wants to make a difference and create his own prosperous world. The Son of Heaven made up his mind to cut the domain, and as a courtier, there were only two ways.

Either follow the Son of Heaven, or go against the Son of Heaven and obstruct it in every way. The behavior of falling on both sides of the wall grass is absolutely unacceptable, and there is a danger of falling off the wall at any time.

How to choose?

Under the light and darkness of the candle flame, Lu Ge Lao's expression was obscure.

Lu Chi didn't say anything more and quietly retreated.

The Lu family is already a top famous family in Daqi, and they are deeply encouraged. It's just that it is by no means easy for Wenchen's glory to continue from generation to generation.

A noble family with titles and hereditary blessings. Once there is a war, he will lead the troops to kill the enemy, throw his head and spill his blood, and the military exploits will also benefit future generations.

And the civil servants relied on the imperial examination to advance. During his reign, he was prosperous, and once he was old, the family would face the dilemma of decay.

Therefore, the family of Wenchen and the eunuch is very strict and meticulous in the teaching of children and grandchildren. Before he is old, he can have children and grandchildren to show his or her prominence in the court officialdom, and he can continue the glory and status of the family.

Lu Chi is young and promising, and he is also a confidant of the Son of Heaven. He followed the Son of Heaven, and the Lu family actually had no second choice, and it was impossible to have a second choice.

Lu Ge Lao sat alone in the study for a long time, suddenly sighed, and whispered self-deprecatingly: "I didn't expect that I also had a time to look away." ”

The easy-going and ambitious Son of Heaven he always thought was just Taoguang and obscure. The city is so deep that even he was deceived.

Now that the sword of the Son of Heaven is unsheathed and radiant, who can resist it?

……

The next day, Chen Yanguan was ill.

When the news reached the ears of the officials, the officials couldn't help but be secretly speechless. Chen Shangshu is really ruthless, this is his own son!

In comparison, Zhao Ge Lao Lu Ge was much gentler. Zhao Qi appeared in front of people in a dignified manner, and Lu Chi was even more unharmed, and was summoned into the palace by the Son of Heaven to accompany the driving process.

If you have good things and are bold, you have to joke and mock a few words in front of Chen Shangshu: "Chen Shangshu, how sick is Ling Gongzi?" Why don't I introduce a famous doctor in Beijing to Chen Yanguan? ”

"I heard that the emperor rewarded the imperial doctor and went to the Chen Mansion to treat Chen Yanguan's injuries...... No, it's healing. You and I don't have to be troubled. ”

Chen Shangshu was angry, and he was also annoyed that he was impulsive and heavy, which made others watch the excitement. After learning that Zhao Qi and Lu Chi both entered the palace safely and soundly, they regretted it even more in their hearts.

The Son of Heaven insisted on cutting the domain, and no one could stop him. In this case, it is obviously not a bad thing to follow the Son of Heaven and wave the flag......

This irritable and impulsive temper can really be taken away.

A few days later, after discussing politics at the small court meeting, the Son of Heaven took the initiative to leave Chen Shangshu and cordially inquired about Chen Zhan's "condition": "...... It is inconvenient for me to leave the palace, otherwise, I will visit him. I wonder how he is now? ”

No matter how thick and old Chen Shangshu is, he can't help but ask the Son of Heaven like this, and he is a little hot behind his ears. He coughed and replied, "Thank you for your concern." Chen Zhan's illness is not serious, and he will be able to recover in a day or two, and he will be in the palace to accompany him. ”

Sheng Hong smiled gently: "That's fine." I am busy with political affairs every day, and I can't leave Chen Zhan by my side. When he recovers, let him enter the palace to see me. ”

Chen Shangshu's old face was also a little hot, and he should have been.

After leaving the Yiqing Palace, Chen Shangshu raised his hand and wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead.

That night, as soon as Chen Shangshu returned home, he went to Chen Zhan's house with a calm face.

Chen Zhan is young and strong, just suffering from some skin and flesh after a few sticks, with the ointment for healing in the palace, lying on the bed every day to eat and sleep well, and to raise his face to be ruddy, and his spirit is very good.

As soon as he saw his father coming, Chen Zhan immediately restrained his smile, squeezed out the expression of the baby's heart, and shouted weakly: "Father." ”

Chen Shangshu: "......"

Chen Shangshu was so angry that he glared at the past: "Bastard! Just a little flesh wound, where do you have to lie down all day and be served? Tomorrow, I will get up and stay at the palace and go to the palace to accompany me! ”
