The most powerful patriarch in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 48
"What are you talking about? Gan Hui didn't leave that day, and I won't leave now," Gan Hui said firmly.

"Uncle Hui, aren't you afraid of the government?"

"If you're afraid, Gan won't have the nickname of Jiujiang Hero." Gan Hui patted his heart and said, "Brother Le, you are a scholar who can achieve great things and have a bright future. I will leave the catties to you."

The story of the ancestors enlightening their dreams has been spread in the clan for a long time.

Gan Hui had heard about it, and was skeptical.

However, the recent changes of the Fuzhou Lu family have been in sight.
Anyway, it's a bad life. If it wasn't for the Lu family in Fuzhou to take him in, maybe it wouldn't be surprising that he would suffer from the cold and starve there, or have an accident.
How can I eat and dress warm, and my wife and children are hot.

Lu Changle and Qiaosao's promise, Qiaosao also told Gan Hui, Gan Hui was very moved when he heard it,
A scholar dies for his confidant, and it is for this value that he values ​​it and is worth following.

There is an old saying that goes well, wealth and wealth are sought in danger, and you have to work hard.

Lu Changle was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly expressed his opinion: "With Uncle Hui's words, we will be a family from now on, a family will not talk about two families, we will share weal and woe, and we will share happiness and misfortune."

This fierce man finally took it for his own use, and the previous efforts were not in vain.

After some heart-to-heart talk, the two had a tacit understanding and didn't talk about this issue anymore, but talked about some interesting things in the clan.

After drinking and eating, Lu Changle asked Xiaoqing to pack another portion for Mrs. Qiao to take back to Shouhou.

Time flies, and before you know it, it's September 23rd.

Lu Changle, Lu Changsheng, Shouhou and Lu Changwei who returned from injury were practicing martial arts in the yard.
Under Gan Hui's instructions, he worked hard to keep fit,

Gan Hui taught his apprentices a lesson, and whenever Lu Changle was free, he would come over to steal the teacher openly,

Anyway, Gan Hui didn't mind.

It's not bad to become a master and fierce general who sweeps the world. It's also good to practice martial arts well and increase self-protection ability in troubled times.

It's almost October, the weather is still very hot, the wind blowing is dry and hot, without a trace of autumn coolness,
After a while, the clothes on my body can wring out water,

This is the case in Fujian, which is near the sea, and the drought in the Central Plains is even more serious.

The decisive battle of Songmian, which is related to the fate of the country, was lost, and riots and thieves were everywhere, even God did not reward food,

I heard that there is a place in Shaanxi where Yi Zixiang eats each other,
For ordinary people, it was another year of dire straits.

While practicing vigorously, there was a sound of chaotic footsteps outside, and the second uncle's voice was slightly hoarse: "Patriarch, where is the patriarch?"

Lu Changle received his merits and responded, "Second Uncle, here."

Looking for yourself so urgently, what happened?

Soon, Second Uncle, Qing Erye, Fat Uncle and Lu Jinyuan all appeared in front of Lu Changle,

The four giants all came, which startled Lu Changle.

Lu Jinyuan was the most straightforward, and said straight to the point: "The patriarch, Fu Zonglong, governor of Shaanxi, was killed by thief Li in Xiangcheng half a month ago."

Knowing the news of Fu Zonglong's death, Second Uncle, Lu Jinyuan and others were dumbfounded, and they came to Lu Changle immediately after recovering.

The dream entrusted to Lu Changle by the ancestors has all come true.

The second uncle said anxiously: "Patriarch, has the ancestor had any dreams recently?"

The second uncle and the others don't care whether the Ming Dynasty can be preserved. Whoever becomes the emperor, the common people have to pay taxes.

The Lu family in Fuzhou had such a difficult life, and the ancestors and clan members died so miserably, it was all due to worshiping the court,
What everyone cares about now is not only to save their lives in troubled times, but also to seek a fortune with the new patriarch.

"Not recently, don't worry, everyone. If the ancestor dreams, I will tell everyone immediately."

Second Master Qing stroked his beard and said, "Patriarch, just leave the affairs of the clan to us old guys. You need to rest more, and you can't let your ancestors dream about you."

"It makes sense, whether the Lu family in Fuzhou can prosper or not depends on the patriarch," Fatty also said with concern.

What Lu Changle could say, he had no choice but to answer.

All referring to himself?
Or does it all refer to the so-called "ancestor's dream"?
It's not easy to ask.

Just when the second uncle was about to say a few words, the sound of a gong suddenly sounded outside.
"Dangdang. Dangdang"

"Congratulations are coming, I invite Lu Changle of Xingping Village to receive them"

Lu Changle and Lu Jinyuan looked at each other, and there was happiness in each other's eyes.
If the guess is right, it should be appointed.

"Patriarch, why are you still staring blankly, the good news is here, hurry up to receive the good news." The second uncle pushed Lu Changle anxiously.

In response to that sentence, the emperor is not in a hurry for eunuchs,
The Fuzhou Lu family hasn't had a character for a long time.

Lu Changle came back to his senses, just as he walked out the door, Changhe had already led a group of people to the door.

The team was led by four servants from the Fuzhou government office.

The militia belongs to the local defense and is under the jurisdiction of the local government, and the letter of appointment is delivered by the government officials.

After verifying his identity, the yamen servant who led the team said with a smile: "Congratulations, Mr. Lu, for being promoted to the chief coach of the militia, and accept the letter of appointment."

"You guys have worked hard all the way." Lu Changle smiled and stretched out his hand to receive the letter of appointment.

Fan Sanbo is right, that Chen Qi is a person who collects money for work,
To get the letter of appointment so quickly, it seems that the 100 taels were not in vain.

The leading yamen servant was full of smiles, holding a letter of commission in his hand, but he hadn't handed it out for a long time.

Lu Changle quickly understood, and took out two five taels of silver cakes to offer: "It's been a hard journey, please accept this treat, it's so hot, drink some hot tea on the way."

"Mr. Lu is really polite, but the younger ones are not respectful. Congratulations, congratulations." The leading yamen servant took it very familiarly, weighed it, and then handed the letter of appointment to Lu Changle with satisfaction.

Announcing the good news is a fat job, and it is not easy to grab this job. I didn't expect that people from a small place would pay ten taels.
This time, it's worth it.

"Patriarch, let me see." As soon as the yamen servant left, Lu Jinqing couldn't sit still, and jumped out to see the letter of appointment.

"Patriarch, I see it too, I see it too"

"I don't know what the letter of appointment looks like, patriarch, I also want to open my eyes."

The onlookers gathered around one after another, wanting to see what the letter of appointment looks like.

For them, everything in the government has a sacred color.

Lu Changle handed the letter of appointment to the second uncle who stretched his neck and was more excited than himself.

The second uncle took it carefully, and reprimanded loudly: "Don't push, if you break it, see if I won't break your legs."

Opening the letter of appointment, it was generally stated that Lu Changle is a young talent with high moral character, loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and he was specially appointed as the head coach of the Fuzhou militia, hoping to continue to work hard for the country.

Seeing Lu Changle's name, looking at the four characters of militia chief training, and then looking at the bright red official seal on the back, the second uncle repeatedly applauded: "Okay, okay, okay, our Fuzhou Lu family has finally produced another character, haha Ha ha"

The chief trainer of a militia in a state capital, counting from the seventh rank,

Since Qipin is also an official, the last official of the Lu family in Fuzhou was a juren in the Hongwu period. He only served as a county magistrate for one term, because he would not flexibly offend his superiors. .

The letter of appointment was passed to Second Lord Qing, and Second Lord Qing carefully touched the red official seal on the letter of appointment, his old face bursting into smiles: "Quickly ask someone to prepare a sacrifice, this matter must be reported to the ancestors."

"I pulled two pieces of meat back in the morning, and then grabbed some chickens, and set up a wedding banquet. Let's all have fun together," the fat man suggested with a smile on his face.

"Yes, we must set up a table, it is worth celebrating"

"Okay, eat Xixiluo, eat Xixiluo" the children clapped their hands and shouted happily when they heard that they could have a feast.

The letter of appointment has been passed in the hands of everyone, and everyone present is immersed in joy.

The patriarch has become an official, and the clansmen are also honored.
You must know that Lu Changle is not even 20 years old, not only is he young and promising, but also has a promising future.

The people of the Lu family in Fuzhou are happy, and Lu Changle is in a better mood.

Looking in the direction of Changle County, an imperceptible sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth,

Fan's firm, Fan Sanbai, it's time to calculate the general ledger.

Lu Changle was promoted to the head trainer of the Fuzhou militia, and the Lu family in Fuzhou was overjoyed. They slaughtered sheep and chickens that night, and held a big banquet.

Because of being happy, it is rare to indulge once, and many people in the clan drink too much,

Careful clansmen found that, as the protagonist, Lu Changle was very restrained, didn't drink much,
As soon as the banquet was over, he dragged several clan elders, Fangtou and Gan Hui into the back hall of the ancestral hall for a meeting.
The lights in the back hall were still on at the second watch, and they didn't know what they were discussing.

　He doesn’t recognize people when he lifts his pants, runs away after eating and wiping his mouth, and slaps traitors after crossing the river. Will the protagonist be too bad, hahaha
