The second wind rises in Chang'an Chapter 404 There are still things you don't know

"In other words, Your Majesty has agreed to settle the matter of Nacai on his own?" After giving some tips to the guards beside Lin Lang, Lu Chen and Lin Lang, who were seated in the front hall, looked at Lin Lang and asked.

"Hey! Grandpa, you don't know! Just for your sake, yesterday Su Guogong and Zheng Shangshu both staged a full martial arts in front of His Majesty! Hearing Lu Chen's question, Lin Lang said with a smile.

"Oh? And what's going on? Hearing Lin Lang's words, Lu Chen raised his eyebrows, and suddenly became interested, and at the same time compared the "difference in combat power" between Cheng Yanjin and Zheng Shanguo in his mind, "Then was Zheng Shangshu killed by Su Guogong?" Lu Chen asked directly with curiosity.

"Poof!" Asked by Lu Chen, Lin Lang just drank the tea in his mouth and squirted out directly, looked at Lu Chen with strange eyes, and coughed lightly twice, before continuing, "My grandfather! How can you say that those two are also important ministers in the court, if they really want to make a good mistake, or in front of Your Majesty, do you think our family can still come over to announce the decree to you today? I'm afraid that at this time, you will have to come to the door to offer condolences, right? When he said this, Lin Lang had a helpless face.

"It's a pity!" Hearing Lin Lang's words, Lu Chen shook his head with a look of regret.

"My grandfather! Are you going to go to prison for Su Guogong, or are you running for Zheng Shangshu to 'sacrifice your life for the country'? Lin Lang still looked at Lu Chen helplessly and said.

"It's a pity that my father didn't see this 'grand event' with his own eyes, where did Lin Nei Shi go!" Lu Chen looked at Lin Lang and said with a smile.

"Whew!" Hearing Lu Chen's words, Lin Lang breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that the grandfather in front of him was going to "one death and one injury", although Lin Lang also despised those families in his heart, but it was somewhat inappropriate to take a Su Guogong inside.

"Okay, grandpa, Your Majesty's will has also been brought to our family, and this tea has been drunk! Everything that needs to be said has been said! It's time for our family to go back to the palace to reinstate! Lin Lang had a feeling that if he stayed here any longer, maybe this grandfather could say anything, in case he said something special, when he went back to reply, Li Yuan asked him, "What did Lu Chen say", how did he answer?

Answer the truth? When the time comes, Li Yuan will definitely not treat this Lu County duke, after all, who doesn't know how much His Majesty Datang loves this Chang'an County duke, and even gave him a marriage, but also for the sake of this future concubine, the etiquette system has been specially handled, it doesn't matter what the county duke says, but when he hears these things, whether the "dog head" can be kept at that time is not necessarily.

"Then Bengong will not be far away, Lin Nei waits slowly!" Lu Chen nodded, sent Lin Lang directly outside the mansion, and instructed Liu Jing to take him to send Lin Lang out of Lujiazhuang.

"Grandpa is busy, please stay! We're leaving! Lin Lang arched his hand at Lu Chen, then turned over and left Lu Chen's mansion with the team, and Liu Jing sent him outside Lujiazhuang on behalf of Lu Chen, and then went back to Chang'an to find Li Yuan's resumption.

After Lin Lang left, Lu Chen asked Liu Jing to find Du Yanliang, although Li Yuan ordered Lu Chen to make special arrangements and perform the gift of Nacai himself, but what Nacai had to prepare, Lu Chen was still confused, so this matter still needs to ask the old man, and in Lujiazhuang, the old man who can be regarded as full of economy is now Du Yanliang.

"Grandpa!" Soon, Liu Jing took Du Yanliang, who was reading at home, to the front hall, and Du Yanliang directly rushed to Lu Chen.

"Du Lao is here! Sit down! Sit down! Lu Chen directly helped Du Yanliang to the chair, and Lu Chen's sudden surprise directly startled Du Yanliang.

"Grandpa! Don't be like this, if you have any orders, the grandfather will say it bluntly! Being supported by Lu Chen like this, Du Yanliang looked at Lu Chen directly with some apprehension, I don't know what his grandfather is doing!

"Old Du, my father-in-law has something to inquire about!" After Lu Chen returned to the main seat and sat down, he looked at Du Yanliang and said.

"I don't know what? If the little old man knows, he will definitely know everything! Du Yanliang looked at Lu Chen and said with an oath.

"Old Du, you also know that my father-in-law was given a marriage by His Majesty!" Lu Chen looked at Du Yanliang and said.

"Isn't this known to the whole world? Could it be that the Lin Nei attendant came to announce the decree today, but His Majesty has changed his mind? Hearing Lu Chen say this, Du Yanliang suddenly remembered that Lin Lang came to the door to announce the decree today, and couldn't help but look at Lu Chen in surprise, this Lin Lang came to Lujiazhuang to announce the decree not once or twice, so the people in the village didn't care much, and Lu Chen just sent Lin Lang away and asked Liu Jing to find Du Yanliang, so what was the will that Lin Lang read out, Du Yanliang didn't know at all! Therefore, Du Yanliang asked in a speculative tone.

"Not really!" Lu Chen shook his head directly, "My father's parents are no longer there, and today's Lin Nei Servant ordered His Majesty to allow this Duke to personally carry out the Nacai ceremony, but I don't know what this Nacai needs to prepare, so I brought Du Lao here and asked about it!" Lu Chen told Du Yanliang the reason very simply.

"That's what happened!" Hearing Lu Chen's words, Du Yanliang stroked his beard directly and laughed, "Actually, this Nacai gift is not much, but this Nacai gift needs to be accompanied by a matchmaker, but I don't know, who is the matchmaker of the grandfather?" Du Yanliang looked at Lu Chen and asked with a smile.

"Then Lin Lang said that His Majesty issued a decree to appoint the Holy Marquis Kong Yingda as a matchmaker!" Lu Chen said very simply.

"Your Majesty really values Grandpa!" Hearing Lu Chen say that Li Yuan issued a decree to let Kong Yingda be a matchmaker for Lu Chen, Du Yanliang nodded directly and exclaimed, "That old master Kong is one of the best Confucians in the world, and Your Majesty decreed that this person should be a matchmaker for Grandpa, which can be regarded as your honor!" ”

"In the opinion of the little old man, it is better for the grandfather to visit this holy marquis first, and then talk about this gift, it is more appropriate!" Du Yanliang looked at Lu Chen and stroked his beard and suggested.

"That prince will visit this holy marquis tomorrow!" After listening to Du Yanliang's suggestion, Lu Chen nodded and agreed.

"Moreover, this matter of Nacai is a gift, this Shenghou knows more about it than the little old man!" Du Yanliang said with a smile, "After all, Xiao Lao'er is only a villager, and what he understands is the gift of our villager's family. ”

Listening to Du Yanliang's words, Lu Chen nodded again, although this is one of the things about "rites", now in the court, I am afraid that Zheng Shanguo, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is the most familiar, but Lu Chen obviously can't ask Zheng Shanguo.

After breakfast, Lu Chen took Liu Jing and Feng Huai, as well as a few back guards, and prepared gifts, and went straight to Kong Yingda's house.

To say that the location of Kong Yingda's Shenghou Mansion is indeed a very wonderful place, his mansion is in the southwest of Pingkangfang, close to the southeast corner of Xuanyang Fang, and only two streets away from the west gate of Pingkangfang.

"Anyway, why do these literati like to live next to Pingkangfang?" Looking at the Zhumen high-ranking family in front of him, Lu Chen couldn't help but think to himself in his heart.

No wonder Lu Chen pondered so much, although the destination was Kong Yingda's Shenghou Mansion, but along the way, he passed by the mansions of many literati officials, including Wei Cheng, the wine of the country, Yan Xiangshi, who joined the army in Tiance Mansion, and so on.

When he came to the door of Kong Yingda's Shenghou Mansion, Liu Jing naturally stepped forward to call the door.

As the knocking sound of the knocker came out, the corner door opened, and a man poked his head out and asked, "Who knocked on the door of the house?" ”

"The prince of Chang'an County came to visit the Holy Marquis! Here's a post! It was not the first time that Liu Jing had dealt with these people, so he said aloud directly, and at the same time took out the prayer note from his arms.

As soon as the Yan people heard the words "Chang'an County Gong", they hurriedly walked out of the corner gate, "I don't know where Chang'an County Gong has arrived!" Forgive the villain's rudeness! The Yan people hurriedly confessed to Lu Chen, and at the same time respectfully accepted the greeting post presented by Liu Jing with both hands, "Grandpa, please wait, the villain will go to Tongbing my family!" After the Yan people saluted Lu Chen again, they turned around and walked quickly towards the mansion.

After half a cup of tea, with the sound of footsteps, the corner door opened, and Kong Yingda walked out directly from the corner door with the housekeeper.

"I don't know if my grandfather is here, I miss the distance, and I hope that my grandfather will forgive my sins!" Kong Yingda, who had a gray beard floating on his chin, smiled at Lu Chen.

"Master Hou, don't be like this!" Lu Chen hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Master Hou is saluting, but it's a setback!" ”

Although he despises some distorted Confucianism in later generations, Lu Chen still respects this old master Kong Yingda, after all, Kong Yingda is a great Confucian who created the concept of "teaching students according to their aptitude", although Kong Yingda's "teaching according to their aptitude" also has the limitations of the times, but he is also the founder of this concept, although they are all Confucians, they still can't beat people to death with a stick, therefore, Lu Chen still admires Kong Yingda, a Confucian Confucian.

"Grandpa came here this time, but for the sake of Nacai?" Kong Yingda and Lu Chen came to the front hall, and after the guests and hosts sat down, they looked at Lu Chen with a smile and asked.

"Don't hide it from Old Master Confucius, I really came here for this matter!" Lu Chen was not verbose, and responded directly.

"I wonder what Grandpa is going to do with this gift?" Kong Yingda looked at Lu Chen and asked with a smile, "Can this gift be prepared?" ”

"Isn't this here to consult Master Confucius? I also hope that Master Confucius will not hesitate to give advice! Lu Chen smiled at Kong Yingda.

"It turns out that there are still things that you Lu County Gong doesn't know!" Hearing Lu Chen's answer, Kong Yingda directly stroked his beard and laughed, it seemed that Kong Yingda was particularly happy that Lu Chen did not know the specific details of the "Nacai" matter.

"It's not an immortal down there, how can you know it all!" Seeing Kong Yingda laughing, Lu Chen said helplessly.
