Dajin royal family
Chapter 428
Chapter 428
Does Liu Jianhan want to leave?
Of course he didn't want to leave, Hejian was his base and the county he had occupied for the longest time, but he couldn't do without.
First of all, he has only remnant soldiers and defeated generals left, and secondly, the food and grass in the city have run out, and all the rich and powerful families have been robbed by him. The people regard him like a tiger. He can only die here if he stays here. It is better to give up Hejian and escape.
Liu Jianhan gathered his cronies, tidied up the palace's valuables, abandoned his lovely wife and concubine, and fled from the south gate overnight with his son.
An hour later, Yu Chijing and Wang Xuba got the news of Liu Jianhan's escape at the same time.
Yu Chijing didn't talk nonsense at all, and asked Wei Zhongzheng to lead [-] cavalry to intercept and kill Liu Jianhan, while he heavily guarded Wang Xuba.
Wang Xuba first yelled at his allies for fleeing without faith, and then ordered the army to retreat overnight after the swearing.
Liu Jianhan fled. If he stayed here, what awaited him would be a full-scale attack from the Northern Jin Army.
Yuyang, the backyard of Lu Mansion.
Flying paper kites is one of the few outdoor activities for noble ladies. Most of the time they stay in the attic mending their wedding dresses, waiting for the news of the family marriage, and then weeping and marrying unwillingly.
If you enjoy the treatment that others cannot enjoy, you will naturally have to bear the price that others do not need to bear.
Paper kites flew high in the air, Lu Chan's small white hands were holding the string, and his pretty face showed a cute smile from time to time, and the sisters and sisters beside him booed one after another.
For the safety of the clansmen, Lu Huaishen has brought most of the clansmen to Yuyang.There are all grown men in Zhuojun, who are in charge of the shops and farmland.
"ah!"
The wind suddenly died down, and the paper kite tremblingly slid down from the air, and the eyes of all the women followed the paper kite.
"Too bad, I went to another courtyard." Lu Chan covered his mouth with annoyed expression.
Not long after, she took her dress and went to the other courtyard, and entered the other courtyard through the side door.She thought she would find the kite smoothly, but she didn't expect to find it anywhere around Youmu.
Across the rockery, a man was playing with her paper kite in his hand, followed by a dozen sturdy guards.
Who is that?
Lu Chan was a little strange, she knew everyone in the mansion, but she didn't know that figure from the back.
At this moment, the man Muran turned around and looked over, and saw a beautiful young lady peeking from behind the rockery.
Jiang Chengxiao chuckled, it seemed that the right owner of the kite had come.
"Jiyun, return this thing to that girl."
Nan Jiyun took the kite and walked towards Lu Chan. Lu Chan leaned against the rockery in fright, as if the other party hadn't seen him.
"girl."
Nan Jiyun handed the paper kite to Lu Chan.
Lu Chan took the kite and whispered 'thank you'. When she looked over again, she found that her grandfather had actually saluted the young man.
This made her extremely shocked, who was that person who actually made her grandfather salute.
"Your Majesty is here, and the old minister is far away to welcome you. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
After the two sat down, Lu Huaishen apologized to Jiang Chengxiao sincerely.
"Don't say such things, Mr. Lu. Qing Que should have notified Mr. Lu in advance when he came here. It's Qing Que and Meng Lang."
Lu Huaishen chuckled, first invited Jiang Chengxiao to drink some tea, the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and gradually got to the point.
"This time I came to Zhuojun to check the people's livelihood in the northern counties. I passed by the Lu Mansion and came to visit Duke Lu." Jiang Chengxiao said with a smile.
"The old minister is very honored." Lu Huaishen said: "If the king hadn't put down the violent bandits in the northern counties, how could there be Yuyang where we live and work in peace and contentment today. This is all thanks to the king."
Jiang Chengxiao waved his hand and sighed: "Mr. Lu has a great reputation. I didn't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive when I was not in charge of the family. Now that I am in charge, I realize that this family is not easy to manage. Without the help of Mr. Lu, how could Yuyang County be able to do so?" You are on the right track so quickly, Duke Lu is a hero."
Lu Huaishen squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "What the king said really made the old minister feel ashamed. The Lu family has only made a small effort, so how dare they compare with the king. As long as the king has needs, the Lu family will definitely help! "
"Hahaha." Jiang Chengxiao laughed, "What Lu Gong said, it seems that I came to Lu Gong's mansion to beat the autumn wind. Now that all the counties are plowing in spring, there is no need to worry about food. Lu Gong, don't worry."
As soon as this remark came out, Lu Huaishen was taken aback.
He originally thought that Jiang Chengxiao came here for food or money, why not this request?
This made him a little confused.
He didn't really think that King Zhao would come to see him when he passed by Yuyang, there must be something, but King Zhao didn't say anything yet.
Lu Huaishen lowered his eyes slightly, holding his teacup.
Jiang Chengxiao said slowly: "It seems that along the way, Yuyang has recovered well under the management of Governor Wen."
"Wen Junshou is diligent in government and loves the people, this is Wang Shanghui's eye." Lu Huaishen flattered absent-mindedly.
He was thinking about why King Zhao came here.
"Yuyang has gone through several wars, and the government is reorganizing and planning the fields. If this is the case, I'm afraid it will be a waste of time." Jiang Chengxiao said with emotion.
Lu Huaishen wondered, isn't this nonsense, how much arable land can Yuyang have.
Ok? !
He felt as if he had caught something, and looked at King Zhao with some doubts.
But Jiang Chengxiao said slowly: "Back then, Lord Lu borrowed food from me many times, allowing me to stabilize the people of Yuyang. This kindness has always been kept in my heart. I came to visit Lord Lu this time, and I want to ask Lord Lu if he would like to return to the court." Tang, will you stabilize the world?"
Although there were speculations about this in his heart, hearing this sentence with his own ears still made Lu Huaishen's cheeks flush with excitement.
Having been an official for decades, he didn't want to stay at home.
More importantly, if they can go to Taiyuan to assist King Zhao, and the world will be unified in the future, it might be possible for the Lu family to climb to the top again.
"The old man has half a foot in the coffin, so I'm afraid of causing trouble to the king." Lu Huaishen said insincerely, with a wry smile on his face.
Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox, why are you playing Liaozhai?
Jiang Chengxiao had expected Lu Huaishen's deliberate humility.
Well, after all, from Lu Huaishen's point of view, if he agreed directly at the beginning, wouldn't it mean that he was worried about borrowing money at the time?
"Grand Lu, my grandfather is still wasting sleep and food for the affairs of the Ministry of Households. You are almost the same as my grandfather." Jiang Chengxiao laughed and said jokingly.
"Your Majesty loves me so much, how could the old minister have any reason to shirk it, but the old man has neglected the government affairs for a long time, I'm afraid there are some omissions, will this miss the king's important matter."
Sure enough, it is a fox. I haven't agreed yet, so I ask myself what kind of official to do for him.
Jiang Chengxiao took a sip of tea with a smile, and said lightly: "Don't worry, Mr. Lu, the six departments are connected, so things won't be delayed."
Hearing this, Lu Huaishen smiled in his heart, after all it was King Zhao, he could understand his concerns with a single word, he didn't want to enter Taiyuan at this time, with Pei Ju and others standing on top of his head.
"So, for the sake of the Jin Dynasty, this old man can still move his bones." Lu Huaishen said with a smile.
Jiang Chengxiao was not surprised by Lu Huaishen's willingness to agree, no one could refuse the poisoned wine of power, especially the patriarch of an aristocratic family.
Now that the three leaders of Shandong are all holding important positions in the Northern Jin Dynasty, Lu Huaishen, who is the leader of the Hebei gentry, naturally has something in mind.
It's just that if Jiang Chengxiao doesn't come to him, how can he ask for an official?
That's too much of a loss.
Moreover, Lu Huaishen knew very well that in order to win over the gentry in Hebei, King Zhao would definitely come to him.
Gently putting down the teacup, Jiang Chengxiao said slowly: "Mr. Lu, what do you think about the land reorganization in Yuyang?"
Lu Huaishen thought to himself, King Zhao said it once before, and now he mentioned it again, maybe King Zhao has ideas about the land.
It was just about the land, but he hesitated a little.
This thing is different from food. Food is available every year, but land is not like this.
"Does the king have any ideas?" Lu Huaishen asked tentatively.
Jiang Chengxiao acted as if he hadn't heard the tentative meaning in Lu Huaishen's words, and said to himself: "Hebei is about to be pacified, and the people need land to cultivate themselves."
This is also a tacit understanding between the two, talking about Yuyang, but referring to Hebei.
A family like the Lu family, of course, not only owns land in Yuyang County.
Lu Huaishen was silent, he had roughly understood what King Zhao meant. After Hebei was pacified, King Zhao might need a lot of land to resettle the people and reward the soldiers.
Where does the land come from?
He has a number in his mind.
Jiang Chengxiao wasn't afraid that he would guess what he was thinking, this was his original intention, and he didn't intend to hide it.
Otherwise, how could he come to Yuyang when the Hebei war started?
Enough support?
Of course not, everything is difficult at the beginning, and now he needs a family to set an example.
As long as there is a precedent, it will be much easier to do things in the future.
