Chapter 42: Reunion and Exemption (4)

"Anyway, you have to get the post first." Lu Zhengfu said in a panic, "Do you have this thing there?" ”

The Hunan people saw that the Lu family looked down on him a little, so they wanted to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, and said along with the words: "The post has been received." Today, I am ready to build a high wall and open it in Jiangdu. If the business is good, it will naturally start in various places in the future. ”

When Lu Zhengfu heard this, he was full of resentment, gritted his teeth, and suddenly his eyes straightened, he fell back on the chair, and turned his back on his breath.

The minions hurriedly came to help, slapped a few times, but still did not wake up, and cried loudly: "Get here!" Hurry up and carry the old man into the house! ”

A group of people came down and carried Master Lu to the nearby study, pinched the middle of the people for a while, and then slowly opened his eyes; Lu Zhengfu hugged those minions and cried for a while, so that it was good.

The Hunan people walked up and asked in a low voice, "Old man, are you ...... You okay? ”

Lu Zhengfu gasped and shook his hand: "It's nothing, it's nothing...... It's just heartache and has nothing to do with the shopkeeper. But I'm really unwell, so I'm sorry to accompany you, so please go back. ”

How could the Hunan people think that they could do this, so they had to nod helplessly and leave from the study.

"This son of a bitch!" Some minions stared at the Hunan people fiercely.

"This boy is more hateful than his brother! He opened in Jiangdu today, and he will be able to come to Yizheng tomorrow, and my Lu family will not be guaranteed! Zhengfu slammed his desk and said angrily.

"Don't be angry," the minions advised, "quietly think of a solution." ”

Lu Zhengfu immediately said: "It's better to write a letter to Jiangdu, and the Lord of the Governor Mansion will suppress the family, so that there will be vitality." ”

"He is often treated well by the prefect, and if this letter angers him, my family may have an unforeseen disaster." The servant spoke again.

Lu Zhengfu lowered his brows, waved his hand and said, "Hengzhuo, our pawnshop is going to suffer, why not give him a try?" Don't talk about it, go get a pen and paper! ”

The housekeeper who passed through the palace waited for two days, but he still did not know the news of his master, so he was a little anxious. The steward said that it was better to go to Comrade Chen again, and he also felt that this was the reason, so he went to Comrade Chen's house alone.

"What," Comrade Chen asked, "Can't wait?" ”

"yes, the sooner you should do this, the better. It doesn't matter, I'll go with you. The steward replied.

When Comrade Chen saw that he had come to the door to look for him, it was not good to refuse again, so he sighed: "I can't hide it, the prefect has a great opinion on me, and this post needs the approval of the official, otherwise the governor will be there...... I won't let it in. ”

"Can you bypass the prefect and go directly to ask for a post?"

Comrade Chen's whole face twitched slightly.

"After all, let's celebrate the New Year for Governor Kuang." The butler saw his expression and added.

Chen Tongpao still made a worried look.

The housekeeper thought to himself: "Chen Tongzhi means that he doesn't want to go directly to the governor, for fear of having too much to do with the Liu Party." Thinking of this, he turned his head and smiled: "Lord Chen, the villain in this official doesn't understand the rules, according to you, what should it be?" ”

Only then did Chen Tongpao speak: "If the government doesn't give approval, you can let the county government approve it." Vulgar Yun 'The official university crushes people to death', as soon as my identity is gone, he Jiangdu Zhixian does not dare to have half a sentence of refusal. ”

The butler shouted, "Good! Good! What a brilliant idea! I'll go with you to the county office! ”

The county government in Jiangdu is very close to the government office, and there is only a wall in the middle. Standing in the courtyard, the magistrate saw two people dressed in civilian clothes on the opposite side, leading horses past the hall of the government, thinking that they were ordinary people and did not pay attention.

As soon as he turned his head, he suddenly saw the official coming in a hurry, knelt on the ground and said, "Chen Tongzhi is visiting with a servant from the house." ”

"Hurry up, please." The magistrate said, but he muttered in his heart, he just heard that the prefect and Lord Chen turned their faces that day, if he received Chen today, he didn't know that the mansion would be angry with him.

With this thought, the magistrate hurriedly went to greet his comrades Chen and made a gesture: "You have been in the government for a long time, and it is rare to come to the disdainful place in person." ”

"This official has something to do, I hope you can do a little favor," Comrade Chen dragged the housekeeper over, "This is the county magistrate, you quickly kneel and bow." ”

The housekeeper fell to his knees and kowtowed: "County master, the villain is a slave of the Hunan people who are the big shopkeeper of the dyeing workshop, and he is going to open a pawnshop recently. ”

As he spoke, he took out a note from his bosom, smoothed it out, and handed it to the magistrate: "This is a submission written by the villain, just waiting for your approval." ”

Zhixian glanced at the expression of his comrade Chen and said, "Okay, good...... We went to the study to talk. ”

As soon as Comrade Chen stepped into the study, the magistrate bent down, bowed several times, and said: "This matter is better for the government office, and the governor of the people can't look down on the approval of my county government......

Chen Tongpao pouted: "Alas, according to the rules, this kind of thing can be handled regardless of the prefecture or county, what does it have to do with not looking down?" You approve his offer. ”

The magistrate seemed to be a little hesitant, and his comrade pulled down his face: "Don't you obey the official's orders?" ”

He couldn't help it, so he took a pen and wrote a sentence, stamped it, and handed it to the housekeeper, who was excited with the approval in his hand.

After all, the prefect was afraid of the power of the prefect, and after sending the two away, he went straight to the prefect and told the prefect about the matter.

The prefect looked up to the sky and sighed, and said weakly: "That guy bears me, and I can't go back to the sky......"

"My lord, Lu Zhengfu sent a letter from Yizheng." A scribe came up to the court with a letter in his hand.

The prefect hesitated for a moment, took a look at the letter, and then read: "Yizheng grass man Lu Zhengfu worships the prefect: He has been in business for a long time, and has opened a pawnshop for more than 20 years. If you don't fit the family, your luck will die, but you have a trace of anger. Recently, I heard that the family is also involved in this industry, and the ambition is obvious, and it seems that there is an ambition to annex the four seas. Jun try to imagine, the family has been extremely prosperous, if you merge with other families, the power is wide, and it is not possible to control Jiangdu. If it is the only one that survives, it will make a lot of profits, strip the people, and the suffering of Yangzhou is deep...... The words of crying blood, Wangfu Gong has repeatedly investigated, investigated! ”

When he read the letter, he was so angry that he crumpled it into a ball and threw it on the ground.

The magistrate was about to bow his head to pick it up, but the prefect shouted: "Don't pick it up!" ”

"What Lu Zhengfu said makes sense...... Zhixian whispered.

"I don't know that!" The prefect said, looking ahead with a pair of angry eyes.

"You," he pointed to the scribe, "you mount your horse, go after Chen at once, and chase me back quickly!" ”

"How do you talk to him?" When the scribe saw the prefect's actions, he was very stunned.

"Let's just say that there is something important to discuss in this house, it is a hundred thousand urgent matters, go quickly!" As soon as the prefect flicked his sleeves, the scribe went out of the yamen in a panic and jumped on his horse.
