lied to Kangxi

Chapter 695 Extraordinary
Lu Youlong's nose was almost crooked, and his carefully arranged reception ceremony was disturbed by people dressed in sackcloth and filial piety.

"Come here..." Lu Youlong was about to order someone to be arrested, but suddenly he heard someone crying loudly, "Qingqing, Qingqing, my father, my father... his old man... died..."

There was a lot of crying at the scene, alas, the whole welcoming ceremony was completely smashed to pieces.

Qingqing is Yuzhu's surname, and only a very small number of people are qualified to call Yuzhu like that.

Yuzhu looked over intently, only then did he suddenly realize that the leading man in mourning was none other than Li Guangdi's eldest son, Li Zhonglun.

Li Guangdi's status is very unusual. He is not only a former Wenyuange University scholar, but also Yuzhu's provincial examination teacher.

According to today's ritual ethics, one day is a teacher and one day is a father.

The teacher is still in the provincial examination, no matter what, Yuzhu dare not neglect.

Yuzhu quickly took a big step and ran towards Li Zhonglun.

Running, running, Yu Zhu's eye sockets became moist.

While running, Yuzhu cried and shouted: "It's painful to lose my teacher..."

Seeing Yuzhu running up to him, Li Zhonglun suppressed his grief, bowed to the ground, and said in a hoarse voice: "I passed the exam first, unfortunately, the student came here to report to the middle hall."

Li Guangdi has four sons in total. According to the inherent Confucian logic, there must be one son who works at home, farms and studies, and takes care of the ancestral property.

Picking over, choosing over, Li Guangdi chose the eldest son Li Zhonglun who was the least adept at imperial examinations.

Yu Zhu knew the situation of Li Guangdi's family very well.

Even Li Zhonglun, who was not good at reading, passed the Fujian provincial examination and became a veritable master of Juren.

In the era when Yuzhu came, the college entrance examinations in Henan and Hebei were ridiculed as: the hell mode of the college entrance examination because of the extremely low admission rate.

In today's Qing Dynasty, the rural examinations in Jiangsu and Fujian are also called hell mode.

Yuzhu and Li Zhonglun hugged each other and cried for a while, when they stopped crying halfway, Yuzhu asked Li Zhonglun tremblingly with tears in his eyes: "Brother Shide, sir, do you have any legacy?"

Li Zhonglun couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief when he heard the word "remaining fold", he was worried that the "remaining fold" would be withheld secretly, so he had no choice but to come to cheer up Yuzhu.

As a rule, after the former academician became an official, he lost the right to specialize in memorials, and all his memorials must be played by the governor of the province.

That is to say, Li Guangdi's remains must be handed over to the old emperor through the hands of Fujian Governor Lu Youlong.

However, since Lu Youlong took office, he has been suppressing Li Guangdi unscrupulously, both openly and secretly.

Now that Yu Zhu took the initiative to ask, Li Zhonglun took out the sealed box of the memorial without hesitation, and held it to Yu Zhu's hands solemnly.

"Qingqing, you are forced to be helpless, and you have no other choice. After everything is over, Brother Yu will have an explanation that satisfies you." Li Zhonglun looked at Yuzhu expectantly.

Yuzhu knew in his heart that what Li Guangdi left behind must be a hot potato.

However, who made Li Guangdi the teacher of Yuzhu's township examination?
No matter how difficult it is, how can Yuzhu be allowed to back down under the watchful eyes of everyone?
"Come on, hurry up the military report at [-] miles, and send it to Changchun Garden!" Yu Zhu took Li Guangdi's legacy with both hands, and ordered it without hesitation.

"Hey." After Niu Tai took the folding box from Yu Zhu, he immediately led his subordinates to seal the folding box and stamp it with the bright red seal of the governor.

"Drive... drive..." I saw a seventh-rank military officer, with a yellow bag on his shoulders, galloping away like lightning.

As a rule, the Governor-General's special urgent foot to deliver the military report to the official errand must be worn with a seventh-rank top.

The urgent military newspaper at eight hundred miles is already the fastest way to transmit information in the Qing Dynasty.

In the Qing Dynasty, the national postal post system consisting of nearly 2000 post stations, more than 7 postmen, more than 14000 post shops, and more than 4 post shops was extremely large in scale, dotted with dots, and the network was vertical and horizontal. And the depth exceeds any previous dynasty.

According to the regulations of the Ministry of War, there was a post station or shop every 20 miles in various places in the Qing Dynasty.

That is to say, the official errands who are in a hurry can change their fast horses every 20 miles, but those who cannot be changed gallop towards the capital.

Eight hundred miles hastened, and it was obviously impossible to be chased back. Li Zhonglun let out a long breath, and turned his head to stare at Lu Youlong angrily.

It's just a matter of judging people, if Li Zhonglun dares to insult the officials of the frontier in public, no matter how reasonable Li Zhonglun is, he will become unreasonable.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Yuzhu quickly pulled Li Zhonglun back, accompanied him with a smiling face, softened his posture, and persuaded him with kind words.

"Brother Shidao, the funeral of your benefactor is very important. There are some things that need to be done in the future."

Yuzhu's words are soft but hard, soft but firm, forcing Li Zhonglun to pay attention to his attitude and position.

Helping Li Guangdi to send out the legacy smoothly, and helping Li Zhonglun deal with Lu Youlong are obviously two different things!
The anger in Lu Youlong's heart, a good opportunity to flatter the horse, was completely changed by the damn Li Zhonglun, and it was a mess.

Li Anxi's family is too hateful, there is not a single good person!
Having said that, Lu Youlong and Li Guangdi have no enmity, nor near resentment, and they have nothing to do with each other.

But who said that Lu Youlong was a disciple of Songzhu, the chief scholar of Manchuria?

Before Li Guangdi became an official, due to his different political views, he and Song Zhu had a lot of quarrels.

It is no exaggeration to say that in front of the old emperor, there were dozens of scenes where Li Guangdi and Song Zhu blatantly fell out.

When Li Guangdi was in power, Song Zhu had nothing to do with him.

After Li Guangdi begged for the bones and returned to his hometown for retirement, it was Song Zhu's turn to find ways to deal with him.

With Yuzhu's political wisdom, even if he used his feet to think, he could have guessed that Lu Youlong's coming to Fujian as governor was not Song Zhu's deliberate arrangement.

As long as the old emperor has not passed away, Yuzhu's greatest interest now is to come to Fujian to suppress the bandits.

Successfully destroying the bandits and further defrauding the trust of the old emperor is the kingly way!
If you want to seize power through other means, it is a dead end.

The old emperor didn't even trust his own son, so how could he completely trust Yu Zhu, an outsider?
Seeing Li Zhonglun looking at him eagerly, Yuzhu sighed and said warmly: "Brother Shidao, after the benefactor's legacy is handed over, the imperial court will definitely have a special kindness. At that time, the younger brother will go to Anxi with the decree of kindness. The government is proud."

To be reasonable, Yuzhu is the newly appointed governor, he didn't even enter the gate of the governor's office, so he ran to Anxi to pay homage to Li Guangdi.

It will definitely eat bullets!

No matter how stupid Li Zhonglun was, he knew that he couldn't force others to do what he wanted, so he had to say goodbye to Yuzhu with tears.

After sending Li Zhonglun away, Yuzhu seemed to be all right, pulling Lu Youlong and Huang Bingyue to chat about the romance in the capital.

As long as Yu Zhu doesn't feel embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed.

Lu Youlong looked at the chattering and laughing Yuzhu, secretly admiring him, the number one favorite in front of the driver today is really extraordinary!
