Chapter 287: Rumors in Beijing

There is no major event in the capital over the New Year, and naturally there is no excitement to see, if the princess is barely married, in addition, I am afraid that there is only a dispute between "Shuanglu".

There are two "Lu families" in the capital, one of which is the Lu Mansion of Lu Yannian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the other is the Lu Mansion of Lu Hanjiang, the envoy of Fusi Town, Weibei Town, Jinyi.

Originally, this article and one martial arts, the things in charge are one inside and one outside, one is in the temple, the other is far away in the rivers and lakes, and the eight poles can't be beaten together, everyone knows that these two "Lu families" actually have the same root and the same origin, which is much more interesting.

The fact that Lu Hanjiang was removed from the Lu clan was an old adult, but with the rise of Lord Lu's status, many good deeds took it out and talked about it, and there were jokes about Lu Shangshu inside and out.

Originally, Lu Hanjiang's official position was not higher than Lu Shangshu, and some people still felt that it was just so, but now that he has become a concubine of the dynasty, his identity is far more noble than Lu Shangshu, which makes many people who are not used to the power of the Shangshu family talk more.

Among them, the most said is that Lu Shangshu does not distinguish between right and wrong, not only is it a joke that he is blind and pushes out the glory that originally belonged to his own family, but also to know that in addition to the clan, it is not just as simple as crossing out the name from the family tree.

Generally speaking, when a person is removed from the clan, he has committed an unforgivable crime, or a stigma or scandal, in short, it is a taboo thing.

And the person who was expelled from the clan not only could not go back to the family, but the people in the family could no longer have any contact with him in private, and even when other outsiders wanted to associate with him, they would also take into account his reputation as an alien clan, and most people would shy away from him.

It can be said that the reason why Lu Hanjiang almost lived his life in the capital division to the point of being unaccompanied, except for the old man Meng and his colleagues in Jinyiwei, almost no one was willing to come to his door, except for his own character, to a large extent, the reputation of this clan was too great.

But now, His Majesty the Emperor has married the princess to him, and the royal family naturally wants to be faced, does anyone dare to say that His Majesty's son-in-law has a loss of virtue?

So since Lu Hanjiang got married, the direction of the wind in Beijing has changed, and it is mostly a joke that Lu Shangshu treats pearls as fish eyes, and many people are waiting to see him look at his face and invite Lu Zhenfu back to Lu's house.

In fact, this is no longer the level of rumors outside, even the descendants of the Lu family and even their young master and young lady have been affected.

After dinner, Lu Xinxin, the seventh lady of the Lu family, secretly came to Lu Shangshu's study, and heard that Lord Shangshu was angry again today and didn't even eat dinner, she couldn't help but be a little worried.

After coming over, I found that it was not only her, but the fourth brother Lu Hongwen was also waiting outside the door.

Lu Xinxin tiptoed up and patted Lu Hongwen's shoulder, and then hid to the other side, the latter looked back for a while, only to see the grinning sister, he said helplessly: "Seventh sister, you are naughty again." ”

"Fourth brother, when did you come back? Have you eaten? "Lu Xinxin pulled his brother when he came up, and the brother and sister of the same mother, the relationship is naturally good.

Lu Hongwen smiled dotingly at Lu Xinxin: "No, I want to see my father first, but he seems to be seeing a guest, so I'll wait here for a while." ”

"Visitors?" Lu Xinxin poked her head out and looked at the study: "It's so late, who will it be?" ”

"I don't know, I just asked the next person, and they don't know, maybe it's my father's friend." Lu Hongwen said uncertainly.

Lu Xinxin's curiosity came and went quickly, and she couldn't guess the guests in Shangshu's study, so she soon pestered Lu Hongwen to listen to his interesting stories in Guozijian.

"I'm going to study, what's the interesting thing." Lu Hongwen was also helpless, he couldn't bear his sister's hard begging, he had to pick out some interesting things to tell her, but this one inevitably involved something.

Lu Hongwen is not outstanding in Guozijian, he is just a middle-aged person, and he shouldn't have any reputation, but there is a guy who is pestering him, and he will make trouble for him in three days, which makes him really annoyed.

"Why is this Yang Gongzi again?" After Lu Xinxin listened, she puffed out her face, looking very angry, the annoying son came to the house to make a fuss, and she still feels hot when she thinks about it.

Lu Hongwen didn't want to mention these bad things to his little sister, but when he said it, he had to say: "You don't have to be angry with that guy, it's just the son of the Shilang family." ”

Calling Yang Zhiyuan the son of the Shilang family is Lu Hongwen's sarcasm that the other party will only rely on his family background, and this guy doesn't know what's wrong, and he is unhappy to come to him every day.

Lu Hongwen couldn't have imagined that Yang Zhiyuan had no intention of making trouble with him all day long, and he went to find a man at two ends in three days, and he didn't have the good of Longyang, where could a normal person stand it, it was really because he had shown his face in front of Lu Hanjiang without paying attention, and he was always worried that the adults would remember him, so he thought of ways to please him everywhere, and provoked him purely because Lord Lu and Lu Shangshu did not agree.

The brother and sister were talking, when they suddenly heard a bang in the study, and the two of them obediently held their breath and concentrated, this was obviously Lu Shangshu losing his temper towards the table and chair, they were too familiar with each other since they grew up at home.

"Fourth brother," Lu Xinxin said cautiously: "I heard that my father is unhappy, or because that person is ......."

"Seventh sister, it's okay."

Lu Hongwen glanced at the study and said in a low voice: "Don't mention that person at home, my father doesn't like to hear him." ”

"I see." Lu Xinxin nodded obediently.

What the brothers and sisters didn't expect was that this time they actually guessed Lu Shangshu's mind correctly, and at this time, Lu Yannian was really worried about Lu Hanjiang's affairs.

In the study, Lu Shangshu held a porcelain cup in his hand, held it up for a while, and finally was reluctant to fall, this was the official kiln of the previous dynasty, he took a lot of effort to collect it, so he had to put it heavily on the eucalyptus, and he was depressed and left most of it.

"Hmph."

As soon as the atmosphere came out, Lu Shangshu sat in his seat and was bored, he didn't want to say a word, and the person sitting next to him was none other than Meng Yuan, the commander of the Jinyi Guard.

"One Sword Alone"

Old Man Meng was drinking tea on the ground, and said loudly: "Brother Lu, can this anger be regarded as out?" ”

"How dare I be angry with your commander." Lu Shangshu shook his face angrily.

Old Man Meng sighed helplessly: "Brother Lu, why do you want to talk angrily, this is indeed what I did wrong, but now that the wood is in the boat, I don't think you should care." ”

"I care?"

Lu Shangshu got up and flicked his sleeves, and laughed angrily: "At the beginning, you told me that you would find a suitable family affair for him, and I was relieved to hand over his marriage to you, who knew that you would actually let her Princess Shang, what is the situation of His Royal Highness Yongle, isn't it clear that you are an uncle?" ”

"Isn't Brother Lu satisfied?"

"Am I supposed to be satisfied!"

Compared with Lu Shangshu, who was blowing his beard and staring, Old Man Meng had a smiling expression: "Although Yongle is raised in the palace and has a pampered temper, his nature is not bad, and with her in charge of the backyard, that kid also has enough energy to look outside." ”

"Who asked you this, you know what I'm talking about...... Her identity! ”

Lu Shangshu wanted to speak and stopped, and finally sat down indignantly: "That's it, I can't control this matter, let's see how you explain it to him when the time comes." ”
