Chapter 264: Take down Lu Chen!
After the three-day financial meeting, the government and the opposition gradually returned to calm.
And Lu Chen was also reported by Chai Hongyu for secretly working overtime at home, and he was happy to take a five-day vacation.
At the same time, Jiang Chengwan also ordered that Lu Chen was not allowed to consult Lu Chen for the affairs of the DPRK and China in the past five days, and she personally approved it, and strictly ordered Lu Chen to go out to play during the rest period, or to recuperate at home, in short, he was not allowed to contact official business.
As a result, Lu Chen was completely idle.
Fortunately, he had already arranged the affairs of the Ministry of Industry and the Tiangong Division on the second day after the end of the court meeting, after all, he was about to go to the Ministry of Households, and he couldn't ignore the current perfect situation of the Ministry of Industry.
Although it is not yet known who Jiang Chengwan will arrange to replace him as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, whether it is to promote Sun Michang, the left attendant of the Ministry of Industry who is like a transparent person this year, or to parachute a "celecent" down, the train that has been on the right track of the Ministry of Industry will not be stopped.
Unless the empress loses her power, let the civil official group take power again.
Don't think that if he leaves the Ministry of Industry to serve in the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Industry will not be under his control, with his current position and prestige, even if he is demoted to the matter, the Ministry of Industry still has the final say.
This is the case with the current ministry.
Although his current position has nothing to do with the eight poles of the Ministry of Officials, but when it comes to important matters such as officials' merit examinations, promotions, degrades, appointments and dismissals, the first thing the empress asked was not the Three Pavilions and the Ministry of Officials, but he, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry and the secretary of the Tiangong Division.
Therefore, for him now, it doesn't matter what position he has, as long as he wants to manage it, with Jiang Chengwan's unconditional support, he can manage it.
Even if his energy is not enough, he still has enough control in the general direction.
"Cousin."
On a rare rest day, early in the morning, Luo Xiaoyu happily ran outside Lu Chen's bedroom.
"Are you awake?"
Lu Chen opened his eyes a little speechlessly, and then said helplessly: "Wake up now......"
Click...
The door was quickly pushed open, and then Luo Xiaoyu, who had become more and more slim, appeared at the door of Lu Chen's bedroom with the first rays of sunlight in the morning.
"Cousin, hurry up, Sister Gu is here."
Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but be stunned.
Gu Simiao? Why did this cargo return to Beijing again?
The reason why I said it again was because two months ago, the empress gave her a strict order, telling her to rein in, concentrate on training the forbidden army, consolidate the defense of Zhili, and don't always run to the capital if there is nothing to do, so as not to delay military affairs.
Therefore, he hadn't seen Gu Simiao for a long time, and the Lu Mansion was barely clean.
But now......
Sneaking back? Or does the empress can't bear to keep squeezing her and let her come back for a vacation?
"What's the matter with her looking for me?"
Puzzled, he asked directly: "Also, did she come alone?" ”
Luo Xiaoyu responded: "Sister Gu came alone, as for Sister Gu's intention... She didn't tell me, maybe there was something important that I didn't know about. ”
Lu Chen lifted the quilt and got up to get dressed.
"Xiao Yu, you go over to entertain you first, I'll pick it up and come over."
Luo Xiaoyu nodded, answered, and then turned to leave.
After half an hour, Lu Chen cleaned up a little, cleaned himself up to the point where it didn't look too ugly, and walked towards the meeting room unhurriedly.
At the same time, outside the gate of the Lu Mansion, on the edge of the street corner in the east, in the shadow of the originally empty place, the air suddenly shook strangely.
A moment later, in the violent twist, seven or eight figures suddenly appeared out of thin air.
If you look closely, these figures are all slender young women.
The youngest is in his early twenties, and the oldest is only about thirty years old, they are dressed in civilian clothes, dressed like ordinary people, but if you look closely, they all inexplicably have a sense of crisp and heroic posture.
In their gestures, the sharp aura that they inadvertently exuded also made them a little conspicuous.
After a while, all of them suddenly turned their heads at the same time, and looked at the woman in the middle, and then the eldest said:
"Cangyue, are you sure that the general has not thought about tea and dinner for the past two months, is it because of Lord Lu?"
That's right, what they are watching is Gu Simiao's confidant and favorite general who has been relying on since he became the commander of the Cangling Army, and he is also the leader of the young generation in Daxia today, one of the three deputy commanders of the Praetorian Guard, General Cangyue.
"Don't worry, Sister Yingyue, you can't go wrong."
Cangyue said with a determined face:
"Last year, you didn't officially transfer to the Beijing Division, so you asked this question, but if you knew what the Great General had done in the past year, you wouldn't doubt my judgment."
Hearing this, Su Yingyue immediately asked, "What did the general do this year?"
The others also hurriedly urged Cangyue to stop selling it and hurriedly said.
"It all started with the general taking us to Beijing last year to be enthroned."
Cangyue coughed lightly and said slowly: "Since taking charge of the forbidden army, the general is like a different person, not only did he not put all his energy into the army as he did when he was in Huangzhou, but also after dealing with important military affairs, as long as he had the opportunity, he rushed back to Luojing non-stop, after I noticed the abnormality of the general, every time the general returned to Beijing, I tried to find a way to heel on my heels, and then I found ......"
At this point, she paused slightly.
Yingyue's eyes condensed slightly, and then without waiting for Cangyue to continue, she preemptively interrupted:
"Every time the general returns to Beijing, it's to find Lord Lu?"
For Lu Chen, they are naturally no strangers.
In other words, now as long as he is an official with a little status in the Daxia officialdom, he will not be a stranger to Lu Chen without martial arts.
Not to mention that Lu Chen still saved their beloved beloved benefactor of the Great General and the Clan.
As for Cangyue stalking the general, he has been secretly observing this kind of thing for a whole year...... Things are in a hurry, but no one cares at this time.
She also cares about the general......
Of course, they who came here with Cangyue at this time did not accuse Cangyue of their position.
"That's right."
Cangyue nodded heavily, and then said solemnly:
"No matter the wind or rain, the blizzard and the scorching sun, the general has to find time to go back to Beijing to visit Lord Lu, even if it is just to meet him, the general will be satisfied, Sister Yingyue, you are a family person, and you and your brother-in-law went through hardships to get together, you should know what it means for the general to be like this, right?"
There was a moment of silence.
Yingyue slowly spoke: "General, is she already obsessed with Lord Lu......
There was a hint of disbelief in his voice.
You must know that Gu Simiao is the only peerless person in the history of Great Xia who has successfully broken through the realm of unification at the age of his early twenties, and it stands to reason that such a talented existence, shouldn't he be bent on seeking the Tao and have nothing else to think about?
According to the tradition of the cultivation world, even if you are interested in finding a Taoist companion, you should also fall in love with the equally talented Heavenly Pride, right?
How can you be tempted by an ordinary monk?
Yes, Lu Chen is indeed a great benefactor who saved the Gu family, but kindness is kindness, gratitude is gratitude, and feelings are completely different things.
What's more, Gu Simiao has always been a martial artist who pursues the ultimate in martial arts since she joined the Cangling Army, and she has never seen her in a red dress, even if it is a casual dress, it is a wide cloth robe. I almost didn't think of myself as a woman, such a pure cultivator, would really fall into the mortal dust?
Others think the same way.
After all, they are not the parties, and they have not personally experienced everything that Gu Simiao has experienced, so they really can't understand Gu Simiao's thoughts.
But no matter how unbelievable they may belief, the facts are in front of them, and they can't believe it.
It is impossible for Cangyue to joke about this kind of thing, Gu Simiao has been really absent-minded in the army for a while, and her mind wanders from time to time, and she has even reached the point where she doesn't want to eat, and even has a minor illness.
That's right, as a powerhouse in the One Realm, she actually rested for half a day because of illness, which is simply unthinkable.
If it weren't for lovesickness, it would be hard to explain.
Cangyue nodded again.
"Eight or nine is not far from ten."
Ying Yue held back the surprise in her heart, and asked with a calm face, "What do you think on Lord Lu's side?" ”
"I don't know."
Cangyue didn't sell Guanzi, and honestly said the conclusion that he had observed for a year: "The general is too restrained in this regard, and Lord Lu is so focused on state affairs that he hasn't noticed the general's intentions, so now. It should be just the general's unrequited love."
Hearing this, Yingyue was suddenly a little dumbfounded.
The general of their family, the lady of the sky, the peerless master, is obsessed with a man who is four or five years younger than him, even if he is still unrequited?
That's, isn't it?
"So."
Cangyue spoke again and said solemnly, "That's why I brought you here today. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces immediately showed a look of understanding.
"Shall we work together to find a way to fulfill the relationship between the Great General and Lord Lu?"
"Hmm."
Cangyue answered.
"The general has the grace of knowing us, when we were killed by traitors, fell into the trap of the Rouran army, and were surrounded by many people, if it weren't for the general's strength, risking his life to lead the army to rescue, and leading us to break out of the encirclement, we might have been captured by those barbarians and died of humiliation."
"This grace is like reconstruction, now is the time for us to repay the general's great kindness, no matter what, we will help the general to conquer the city and take the insurmountable Xiongcheng of Lord Lu!" (End of chapter)
