Chapter 115
Lu Jinnian is middle-aged, but he thinks too much all day long, resulting in black and white hair. He looked at Shen Xian with warm eyes and nodded in satisfaction.

"My son is auspicious, and he married a good daughter-in-law."

Zhao Shun puffed up his chest slightly, showing a proud expression, only Shen Xian was a little embarrassed, and lowered his head shyly.

Clearing his throat, Lu Jinnian said slowly: "Besides me, there are many loyal people who have not forgotten what happened ten years ago. Among them, Hussar General Xiao Xuangu is the most. The men in black are his subordinates."

"Xiao Xuangu." Silently reciting this familiar name, Zhao Shun's face showed excitement, and he grabbed the handrail with trembling hands and asked, "My uncle is still alive?"

"My lord, did you forget that General Xiao's meritorious service is unrivaled in the world, the former emperor gave him a gold medal to save him from death, even if Yu Wenji wanted to, he couldn't move him."

Listening to Lu Lu's explanation in recent years, Shen Xian nodded slowly. It turns out that the capital still has a backer, so revenge and justice will not be so unattainable.

But after thinking about it, Shen Xian felt something was wrong again, she quickly asked: "But Mr. Lu, since General Xiao is in the capital, why do you need my husband to take revenge?"

Without waiting for Lu Jinnian to speak, Zhao Shun explained: "The court's law, the people do not sue, the officials do not prosecute, my uncle is not from the Zhao family."

"That's exactly the case, so the case needs to be appealed by the young master." Lu Jinnian said here with a faint sigh, "But it's too early at this time, Yu Wenji is now powerful, if you want to trip him, you have to cut his wings Just do it."

As he said that, Lu Jinnian slowly stretched out two fingers, "My lord, there are two paths in front of you now. One is that General Xiao will open up the relationship for you and let you go to the capital to win over the old department and collect evidence at the same time." , until Yuwenji is overthrown."

"Second, yes, the young master started from scratch, went to Beijing through the imperial examination, broke into the inner circle of Yu Wenji's party members, and dismantled his regime from the inside."

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Shun said without hesitation: "I will choose the second method. The first method is too aggressive. If Yu Wenji finds out, the tragedy of ten years ago may happen again."

Zhao Shun looked deeply at Shen Xian, he didn't want to involve his daughter-in-law to accompany him to die.

Seeing that Zhao Shun's choice was so steady, Shen Xian breathed a sigh of relief, "That's fine, step by step, although it will take some time, the chances of winning are better."

Seeing that Zhao Shun made such a decision with such vigor and swiftness, Lu Jinnian laughed and stood up. He said with relief: "Young Master is useless to be blinded by hatred. I am very relieved. Now that the matter has been settled, I hope that you will make preparations early. In the future, we will Goodbye, Beijing."

"The capital?" Zhao Shun hesitated for a moment at the words of County Magistrate Lu, and then asked reluctantly, "My lord is leaving?"

"My lord, you saved my husband and wife's lives this time, and we haven't repaid you yet, why are you leaving?" Shen Xian got up quickly, with reluctance written all over his face.

Lu Jinnian raised his head and smiled, and said in a brisk tone: "Here, I have finished what I should do. Once the credit for suppressing the bandits is reported, General Xiao will operate and transfer me back to the capital to serve. Your son's road ahead is dangerous. , How can it be done without anyone paving the way.”

Shen Xian was extremely admirable in his heart after brushing away the matter and hiding his achievements and fame.

Shen Xian and Zhao Shun glanced at each other, and bowed deeply to Lu Nian after they were all dressed up.

"Zhao Shun is very grateful to Master Lu for his protection for many years. This kindness and virtue will never be forgotten."

"Shen Xian has never seen a person as noble and loyal as an adult in his life, and today he knows what a famous official is and what righteousness is."

Faced with the great gift from the two of them, Lu did not avoid it in recent years, and showed a deep sense of relief. He has been dormant for ten years, and he deserves this gift!
"There is a long way to go, let's stop here."

Lu Jinnian slowly bowed his hands and sent the two of them out of the county government.

After watching the two leave, Lu Jinnian laughed and went back to the bedroom, skillfully opening a dark room.

In the dark room, there is an ever-burning lamp, and a half-person-high mahogany cabinet stands in the middle. On the cabinet, there is a tablet with the inscription 'The Spirit Tablet of Master Zhao Taifu Zhao Gongming'.

Slowly kneeling on the futon, Lu Jinnian's eyes were full of tears.

"Master, the young master has finally grown up. He has married a good wife. The Zhao family's unjust case finally has the hope of redressing it."

Wiping away the tears, Lu Jinnian's eyes flashed with determination, and he said firmly: "This time, when I return to Beijing, the student will fulfill my heart. I hope my flesh and blood can become a stepping stone for your master's revenge!"

Loyalty, righteousness and courage, should be so!
Lu Jinnian's figure, which was not considered generous, was imprinted on the wall by the firelight, and it was extremely tall.

The county government office is not too far from Shen Xian's new home, and within a quarter of an hour's walk they arrived at the door of the house. The two of them survived the catastrophe, so they naturally wanted to buy some food to celebrate.

The newly added kitchen is very large, and it is no longer crowded and embarrassing in the old house. One of them sits on a small bench to choose vegetables, and the other cuts shredded pork.

Zhao Shun looked at Shen Xian's back, showing a trace of unbearable, but he had to say this because he had something important in his heart.

"Miss, from today onwards, I will go to my husband's place to study hard every day, and strive to pass the exam and enter Beijing as soon as possible. The food and clothing expenses of this family will all fall on you."

Shen Xian broke off the thick stalks from the leaves, turned around with a smile, "Don't worry, I have plenty of ways to make money."

As a modern person, with cheats on his body, Shen Xian has many ways to make money, but because he was lazy before, he didn't want to touch it.

But Zhao Shun didn't know what was going on in her heart. Seeing her 'forced words and laughing' at this moment, he had so many thoughts in his heart that he didn't know where to start.

It was almost evening, and smoke was rising from the small courtyard.

There are a large piece of pork belly in the dark iron pot, which is roasted on a low fire, and it is sizzling. A handful of cumin and a handful of chili noodles, the smell made the neighbors cry.

"It smells so good, girl, let me tell you, they specified that it's fine, otherwise how could it be delicious."

"As long as you talk too much, knock on the door quickly."

Before they knocked on the door, Shen Xian knew that it was the brothers and sisters from the Niu family who had come, she wiped her hands and opened the door with a smile.

"I said you two, but you came on time for dinner."

Niu Yu put his feet on his feet and took a look inside. Seeing that Zhao Shun was busy, he was relieved.

"That is, we can smell the fragrance of your home at the gate of the county seat."

Shen Xian covered his mouth and sneered, "Poor mouth, come in quickly."

The dinner is exquisite and rich, with spicy lamb belly with red oil, charcoal-grilled pork belly wrapped in lettuce, and fresh fish soup that sobers up and relieves greasy.

The two brothers and sisters ate their mouths full of oil, and their complexions were much better than when they first arrived in the county.

While eating, Shen Xian finally remembered about Niu Yu's business, she put down her chopsticks and asked, "Niu Yu, is your barbecue stand up?"
