Volume 1 The Men of the Year in the Capital Chapter 46 Emperor Liang summoned
The place where Lu Chengfeng crawled out of the ground was just south of Jinling City, and the distance was not very far, and Lu Chengfeng returned to Jinling City in a few quarters of an hour.
Returning here this time, Lu Chengfeng became more cautious.
Even if it was daytime, Lu Chengfeng didn't dare to be careless, after all, in Jinling City, although it was said to be the most prosperous and wealthy place in the Great Liang Dynasty, it was for the people of the entire Great Liang Dynasty's economy.
For Lu Chengfeng, there is actually a hidden murder here, and there are many dangers.
After experiencing the painful lesson of the last time, Lu Chengfeng realized the horror of the mastermind behind the scenes, even if he has successfully stepped into the realm of foundation building, but he still does not dare to underestimate the other party.
This time, Lu Chengfeng can be regarded as comprehending the power of the Thousand Mountains Pavilion, a great cultivator in the middle stage of the foundation building realm, the status of the terrifying Thousand Mountains Pavilion is not low, to be able to invite such a great cultivator, the mastermind behind the scenes who wants to kill Lu Chengfeng does not know how much he has paid.
Lu Chengfeng is not a person who repays grievances with virtue, what he needs is to repay grievances with straightforwardness.
Now that the other party has already done this, if he doesn't fight back, then he won't be called Lu Chengfeng. No one would tolerate the existence of a person capable of threatening their own lives.
Although Lu Chengfeng didn't know who was behind the scenes, he had strictly decided that he would fight the other party to the end, otherwise, he would have to worry about it every day. Even if he doesn't have to be careful, he doesn't like it.
"Lord Lu, you're not dead?"
After Lu Chengfeng returned to the capital, he came to the Privy Council as soon as possible, and the officials of the Privy Council were obviously very surprised when they saw Lu Chengfeng.
He didn't expect that Lu Chengfeng would be able to come back alive under the assassination of the two great cultivators of the Foundation Building Realm. And it doesn't look like it's hurt at all.
He even felt that the momentum on Lu Chengfeng's body was even more majestic than before.
"Why, do you really want to see me killed?"
Lu Changfeng was as white as the other party, although he did not express any emotion. But the other party was obviously taken aback by Lu Chengfeng's words, and suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing.
"How can this be? The subordinates are just too excited. I didn't expect Lord Lu to be able to survive the catastrophe, it seems that Lord Lu is a great blessing to the sky......"
The official was scared and excited, and his mood was very complicated.
As a member of the Privy Council, he naturally hopes that Lu Chengfeng can return safely, after all, the Privy Council is just a newly established institution, not only can not get along with the officials above the court, but is even ostracized by the officials of the Queen Mother's party.
Moreover, in the past, the Privy Council had the support of General Lu Shang, and others did not dare to do anything when they arrived, but since General Lu Shang's northern expedition, there are only two great cultivators of the Foundation Building Realm left in the Privy Council, and there are no members of the second rank or above.
And since Lu Chengfeng came to Jinling City, they had a nominal backbone, and they used a heavy two-piece member to do this, but they didn't expect it to be soon. This second-rank member was assassinated, which made the entire Privy Council boil.
This matter is even more shocking to the government and the opposition, and this is probably not only aimed at Lu Chengfeng himself, but also His Majesty's side.
"Alright, let's go in!"
Lu Chengfeng didn't care about what the other party said, and he was just joking with the other party, but he didn't expect the other party to react so much.
Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, and had to sigh that the hierarchical order of this world is still relatively deep and strict, although this world does not have the doctrine of Confucianism, but it is very similar to Confucianism, and there are also things about monarchs, ministers, fathers, sons, etc., all in order to maintain the rule of the monarch and the stability of the country and society.
Looking at these things from Lu Chengfeng's point of view, they have a great restraining effect on people, but in this era and society. The advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and we cannot deny the advantages of him because of its negative aspects.
Although this system has inhibited the development of society to a large extent, it has also greatly maintained social stability to a certain extent.
Lu Chengfeng does not feel that these are two incompatible states, on the contrary, many affairs in this world exist in contradictory and unified.
Now in the entire Privy Council, except for General Lu Shang, there are three great cultivators of the foundation building realm, which can be regarded as very terrifying, which has accounted for half of the number of foundation building realm cultivators in the entire Great Liang army.
In addition to Lu Chengfeng, there is also a great cultivator in the early stage of the foundation building realm and a great cultivator in the middle stage of the foundation building realm, it can be said that Emperor Liang has gathered most of his strength to the Privy Council, and it is precisely because of this that the Privy Council can be comparable to the military department.
And this is what the Queen Mother's party fears the most.
As soon as Lu Chengfeng stepped into the door of the Privy Council, someone came to the palace.
"Lord Lu, please stay, Your Majesty summons you. ”
The person who came was the serious and strict father-in-law who specialized in helping the emperor run errands, not only called serious, but also very serious and rigorous. Therefore, His Majesty also has great trust in this Yan Gonggong, and the most important thing is that this Yan Gonggong is very loyal to the emperor.
"Father-in-law Yan, please. ”
Although it is said that Lu Chengfeng has the factor of imperial power for Yan Gonggong, most of it is because of his idea that everyone is equal, and he has been accustomed to respecting others since he was a child, even if he is the most eunuch, and he does not despise and reject the other party's identity.
"Lord Lu is serious, Lord Lu is already in a high position at a young age, and his future is limitless! ”
This Yan Gonggong is also very satisfied with Lu Chengfeng, although other people Lu Chengfeng are very respectful to themselves, but those people are basically because of the supreme imperial power, only Lu Chengfeng alone has respect for himself from the depths of his heart.
Although ordinary people can't see any difference, he has been following Emperor Liang all the year round, and these are just basic skills.
And as for the relationship between the emperor and Lord Lu, this old eunuch who has been by His Majesty's side all the year round, and has followed His Majesty since the time of the crown prince, has naturally heard of it to some extent, to be precise, he has personally experienced the things of that year.
And this Yan Gonggong is not only because of the relationship between Lu Chengfeng and the emperor, but also because of such a feudal society. I'm afraid that only Lu Chengfeng is sincere to himself!
Lu Chengfeng smiled at the Yan father-in-law and didn't say anything more, but he was very shocked in his heart.
He didn't expect that he had just returned to the capital. Then His Majesty the Emperor, who is high up in you, already knows his whereabouts, it seems that he not only underestimated the mastermind behind the murder of himself, but also underestimated the control of this emperor over the entire Jinling City.
But it also indirectly shows that the power controlled by the emperor is much greater than that of the queen mother's party, and the reason why the confrontation has been held for so many years is probably for the stability of the entire Great Liang Dynasty!
After all, the Queen Mother can do this, which in itself means that she has enough wisdom and the city, and he is also very clear about his position, and he does not directly control those officials, and he has never been involved in matters above the court, so the Queen Mother has never had any handle in the hands of the emperor.
I have to say that the influence of the Queen Mother is undoubtedly extremely huge in this Liang Dynasty, not to mention that the Queen Mother's maiden family is also extraordinary.
The younger brother of the Queen Mother is the current Zhenguo Gong, which is also the confidence of the Queen Mother, and the officials involved in it are really complicated, even if Emperor Liang is the Son of Heaven, it is impossible to be rash, the Queen Mother relies on Zhenguo Gong to indirectly control a lot of forces, and Zhen Guogong also uses the name of the Queen Mother to protect his own interests.
Soon Lu Chengfeng came to the palace under the leadership of Gonggong Yan, and this time the emperor was in the vertical arch hall.
"Your Majesty's Privy Councillor, Lord Lu, has arrived. ”
"Xuan. ”
This is the second time Lu Chengfeng has seen this emperor, and he also speaks without any emotion, which makes people wonder what attitude and thoughts he has.
From the first time Lu Chengfeng met, he felt that this emperor's city was extremely deep, and Gao Wentao was strategic, otherwise, His Majesty Xuanzong would not have been able to hand over the throne to him under that circumstance, but now Emperor Liang is an amazing and glamorous person, compared to his brother I don't know how many times stronger, and the Great Liang Dynasty can only continue to grow strong under his control.
"I really didn't expect that you would be able to survive the assassination of the two great cultivators of the Foundation Building Realm. And now it seems that you have successfully stepped into the realm of foundation building, and I think you have also encountered some kind of chance. Sure enough, it is in response to the old saying, if you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing in the future!"
This majesty was somewhat emotional, and he was also a little surprised that Lu Chengfeng was able to step into the realm of foundation building.
Although it is said that there are many great cultivators in the world who build the foundation realm, but those who can step into the foundation building realm at Lu Chengfeng's age can be said to have no second person in the world.
Although it is said that a cultivator like Wang Ruoxi is also the best among the younger generation, he is still trapped in the last step and has never been able to take it.
And Wang Ruoxi's age is several years older than Lu Chengfeng.
This is really the luck and edification of the minister. ”
Lu Chengfeng saluted, although his majesty in front of him was very amiable, but when Lu Chengfeng heard these words, he would inevitably have some apprehension in his heart.
After all, he had discovered that spiritual vein, and although he had guessed that the secret guard was likely to be in the hands of the Queen Mother, who could say that it was not specially arranged by His Majesty in front of him.
Perhaps this Majesty has long known about the existence of the spiritual vein, and he may have touched some of His Majesty's secrets.
