Chapter 178: The Reality of Master and Apprentice

Zhang Xian made a great contribution.

He was transferred to Tonghua County, Yanzhou for two years, and cleared the Qinglong Village, the largest and most difficult bandit nest in Tonghua County in the past ten years, and did what the previous county commanders failed to do.

After the new emperor learned about this, a holy decree transferred him back to Beijing.

On this day, under the respectful gaze of the waiter, Zhang Xian walked out of the palace, at this time, he accompanied him in the imperial study for an hour, and had a good conversation with the new emperor.

He glanced at the sky, boarded his carriage, and instructed the handlebars, "Go home first." ”

At this time, Zhang Xian had already decided in his heart that Lu Desheng's father and son were the nobles of his life.

He found that since he met Lu Mingzhi in Tonghua County, Yanzhou, and after he got in touch with Lu Desheng and Master Lu through his matchmaking, his career has been incredibly smooth.

After Zhang Xian went home, he let the handlebar wait, went in and changed into civilian clothes and came out, and after boarding the car, he only said, "Go to Lu Mansion." ”

At this time, the night is falling, and the lights are already on.

At this time, in the Lu family, Lu Zhiyuan was standing there helplessly, being reprimanded by his father.

He has been dealing with the Lu family's field shop Zhuangzi recently, and many assets have been handled almost completely, just the hot spring Zhuangzi.

This hot spring Zhuangzi was repaired by the family at the beginning, and the price is not easy to set.

When he set the price expensive, he was scolded.

He yelled at him, "If you set such a high price, who will buy it?" Others are not stupid. Don't be unable to sell it in the end, delaying Lao Tzu on the road! Phew, it's wrong, it's not on the road, it's about the journey! ”

Lu Zhiyuan muttered in his heart, my son knows that your heart has flown to Pingzhou, and people can't wait to put on their wings and fly over.

Then, he simply set a low price, and then he was scolded, "You are a loser, let you deal with some industry, you sell it so cheaply?" Is it easy for Lao Tzu to save some money? ”

Lv Zhiyuan: It's too difficult, he's too difficult.

His father finally waved his hand at him, "Okay, hurry up and change your clothes, there will be a distinguished guest coming to the door, you will entertain with me." ”

"Dad, who came to the door at this time?" Lu Zhiyuan asked in a low voice.

Lu Desheng glanced at him, "Lord Zhang Xianzhang came to visit your father and me, do you have any opinions?" ”

"No, don't dare." Lu Zhiyuan shook his head.

Zhang Xian knew that it was a county order in a small place, but after he returned to Chang'an, in just a short time, he had already gained a firm foothold in the court.

Lu Zhiyuan wondered, when did his father have such a good relationship with Lord Zhang, a rookie in the imperial court?

As if seeing his doubts, Lu Desheng explained, "During this time, there were some correspondence. After saying this, he glanced at his eldest son, "Why don't you hurry up and change your clothes?" ”

When Lu Zhiyuan heard this, he ran back to the yard to change his clothes.

Lu Desheng took Lu Zhiyuan to the gate to greet Zhang Xian in person.

Zhang Xian saw Lu Desheng greet him, and hurriedly got out of the carriage, saying again and again that Lord Lu was too polite.

When the two sides met, Lu Desheng led the other party inside, and when greetings, Zhang Xian praised Lu Zhiyuan a few words.

Lu Desheng listened, and subconsciously wanted to refute, but he remembered the words of the little girl in time and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

The little girl said, let him not always deny the boss, can't always scold him, educate him to be relaxed, and scold if he doesn't do well, but he must praise what he does well.

If the eldest son has not been affirmed by his father, all he gets is criticism and denial, and in the long run, he will be deceived by a few good words from outsiders in the future.

Lu Desheng had no choice but to follow Zhang Xian's words and praise his eldest son.

Zhang Xian nodded again and again, "Ling Lang looks like this, he looks like a good character, loyal and honest. ”

Lu Desheng: Didn't you scold him for not knowing how to be flexible? Forget it, he chimed in, "That's right, he's kind and good to his family,"

Hearing his father's praise of him in front of outsiders, Lu Zhiyuan was really moved.

After politely praising Lu Zhiyuan, Zhang Xian couldn't help but praise Lu Mingzhi again and again.

Lu Zhiyuan, who was behind the two, was surprised that his brother actually fell into the eyes of Zhang Xian? It's just that the more I hear this word, the more it looks like a compliment to his second sister?

Lu Desheng smiled when he heard it, he knew that Zhang Xian had misunderstood, and these beautiful words were all praising the little girl.

That's right, don't look at the eldest son, just look at the two younger ones, he can still be very proud.

Every time he saw the stupid things his eldest son do, he couldn't help but wonder, aren't these people born to be sophisticated? Look at his daughter, the front is dull, and the back is also enlightened? Cong is not smart, this is in his bones.

"My little son (little girl) is really good." Lu Desheng is proud.

"Lord Lu, your two sons are really well-born, the eldest son is kind-hearted, the younger son is transparent and sleek at a young age, and the two brothers form an outer circle and an inner square, work together, and everything is settled."

Lu Desheng thought about it, if it could be like this, it would indeed be good. He taught his eldest son in this direction.

When they arrived at the main hall, the people finished serving tea.

Zhang Xian stood up and made a big gift to Lu Desheng, "Thank you Lord Lu for your teaching." ”

A month ago, when he took a gamble and decided to cooperate with Lu Mingzhi's plan to try to uproot Qinglong Village, he didn't expect him to do it at all.

Later, he scratched his head a little.

Of course, he knew that at that time, when the new emperor had just ascended the throne, it was the time to employ people, and if he could take this opportunity to return to the center of the imperial court, it would definitely be easier to gain a future than to continue to delay for two years in Tonghua County and then return to Chang'an.

But how to go back and by what means is a question. He was born in a poor family, and he has been released for 12 years, and there is no other help in the court, so he can't ask someone to help him say a good word in front of the emperor.

These doubts and questions were written in his letter. However, although he sent a letter to Lord Lu through Lu Mingzhi's hand, he still had no bottom in his heart.

Later, Master Lu wrote back to him, agreeing with his idea of realizing his achievements immediately. said that if he continued to run Tonghua County, two years later, when he returned to Chang'an with the help of governing the local people's livelihood, the daylilies would be cold.

But how to return to the center of the imperial court requires his own efforts.

When Zhang Xian saw this, his heart was a little cold, but he still patiently read the letter.

Later, Master Lu explained in the letter that if he helped him, the effect might not be good.

Immediately afterwards, Lord Lu instructed him and asked him to make himself a Wanmin umbrella by eradicating Qinglongzhai.

Lord Lu seemed to be afraid that he would not be able to pass the threshold in his heart because of his weak heart. He also persuaded him in the letter that he would not strive for his own merits and would not invite credit, which would be foolish.

After reading the letter at that time, he discussed it with his confidants, gritted his teeth, and did so.

It didn't take long for him to be given an umbrella by the people of Tonghua County.

Then, he sent this Wanmin umbrella back to Chang'an, facing the new emperor.
