I, Liu Bian, Sanxing Han Dynasty

Chapter 232: Is it still too late to run away now?

Lu Jun in Luoyang also has troubles.

In the three departments, there is also a gap between Langguan.

He is the lowest-ranking doctor, and above him there are ministers and ministers.

A few years ago, he became a doctor through the kindness of his father Lu Kang. A few years later, he was still a doctor.

It's not that he's incompetent, it's that the people he competes with are too powerful.

There are imperial students who have mastered the Four Classics, Xiaolian elected by various counties, and others who, like him, came in through kindness.

Of course, there are also a group of people who came in by buying jobs, and even Lu Jun didn't bother to compare with them.

Although Lu Jun despised others, as a southerner, he himself was also despised.

Therefore, for several years, Lu Jun has been trying to stay warm with fellow villagers from Wu County.

Lu Jun thought, he hadn't heard of any great talents from the county coming to Beijing recently!

After entering the house, Lu Jun found that there were not many people in the house. Almost all of them were people he knew, and they were all from Wu County.

After sitting down with Lu Jun, Quanrou said: "Gentlemen, there are no outsiders here, so you can speak freely."

Quanrou personally welcomed Lu Jun into the house and arranged for him to sit at the first left-hand seat of the main seat in the house.

He remembered that Zhou was born in Lujiang County, and there was Danyang County between him and Wu County. How could he appear here?

If Quanrou had told him Zhou Hui's identity in advance, he would have declined, but now...if he left rashly, wouldn't he have offended Quanrou, Zhou Hui, and even Zhou Hui's father, Zhou Zhong?

Hongluqing Zhou Zhong?
Lu Jun was not very talented, but he had studied in the Third Department for several years, and he had some political qualities as a scholar-official.

There was only one person, dressed in gorgeous clothes, sitting on the right seat opposite him. This person looked older than him and should have a higher status than him, but he had never seen him before.

In the past, he had been trying to make friends with Quanrou, but although Quanrou's attitude towards him was not bad, she had never been so close to him.

He received an invitation from Zuo Cheng Quanrou, the minister who also came from Wujun, and hurriedly attended the appointment, hoping that Quanrou could help him at the minister's desk.

"Quan Gong!" After getting off the carriage, Lu Jun was flattered to face Quan Rou who came to greet him at the door.

Such an obvious outsider.

Lu Jun was sitting in the carriage. His blood was weak now. At this age, he was the only one who could be relied on.

Without waiting for Quanrou's introduction, the man introduced himself with a smile on his face - "I have heard of Mr. Lu's reputation for a long time, and I didn't want to meet him today. I am Zhou Hui, and my father is Honglu Qing."

The power of the Chancellor is very great, and the Chancellor Zuo Cheng is not bad, but as the representative of a county's scholars in the capital, he is actually a bit taller than the shortest.

There were imperial students, Lang Guan like him, and some who came to Luoyang specifically to study.

"Gongyi? Gongyi?"

Lu Jun came to his senses and blinked. Was he blind or dizzy?

But seeing that no one else said anything, Lu Jun summoned up the courage to ask: "Quan Gong, this gentleman is..."

The most important thing is that his father Lu Kang is the current governor of Lujiang!
Lu Jun noticed something was wrong, but didn't know what to do for a while.

Lu Jun suddenly heard someone calling him, and when he came to his senses, he found that everyone in the room was staring at him.

The smile on Zhou Hui's face opposite him was also a little stiff.

Lu Jun realized that he had left Zhou Hui here while he was thinking. He hurriedly returned the greeting and said: "I never thought that it would be Brother Zhou in front of me. I got excited and lost my etiquette. I hope Brother Zhou doesn't blame me."

Zhou Hui was a little angry. When he was in his hometown, he and his younger brother Xiong Jianghuai were leisurely, making friends with groups of guests, and often came and went in more than a hundred cars. Who among Jianghuai would dare to treat him like this?
"Forget it, we still need him!" Thinking this in his heart, Zhou Hui immediately expressed his understanding generously.

Lu Jun breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Quanrou said a few words to ease the atmosphere, and then said: "It has been at least two or three years since you all here came to Beijing from your hometown. I wonder if you still remember the scenery of your hometown?"

As soon as this topic came up, the wanderers who were alone outside all expressed their feelings.

Everyone talked about various things in their hometown. They were in the same county and had many similarities. The room quickly became lively.

Quanrou added: "I once heard someone say, 'It's not easy to live in the capital.' I am able to talk to you here only because my elders at home are working hard in the countryside..."

Lu Jun nodded. It was easy to support himself with his salary, but it was far from enough if you included the carriages, horses, servants, and the cost of making friends with people.

So every year his father would send money for him to use.

Everyone present also agreed.

Quanrou continued: "But I heard that days like this won't last long!"

Someone was shocked and asked, "Why did the Duke say this?"

Quanrou sighed and said, "You know what General Anton Xun went to Yangzhou a few days ago, right? There is no need to say much about Xun Gong's conduct, but the Yingchuan and Runan people who followed him to Yangzhou are different."

"They hid the secrets from Duke Xun and secretly robbed land and houses, tricking ignorant people and mountain barbarians into farming for them."

"Now it's Lujiang and Jiujiang, but it won't be long before it's Jiangnan and Wudi's turn!"

Someone immediately scolded: "The Guandong people bully others too much and are not worthy of being human beings! It's okay to look down on us in normal times, but now they insult people like this! Quan Gong said, what should we do? We all listen to you!" "

As soon as this was said, someone else echoed it.

Lu Jun was very happy when he heard someone scolding people from Guandong. He had seen a lot in the past few years. People from Guandong who performed similarly to him could be promoted, but he could not. He had been holding back his dissatisfaction for several years.

But he didn't dare to scold him.

Moreover, according to Quan Rou, do you want to discuss dealing with Xun Shuang in private?
Is it still too late for him to run now?

Lu Jun looked at Zhou Hui, who was sitting opposite him. The latter was also looking over and smiled heartily at him, even showing a few teeth.

But in Lu Jun's view, it was a bloody mouth that suddenly rushed towards him.

Quan Rou's call came again in my ears: "Gong Yi, everyone is willing to contribute to their hometown. I wonder if Gong Yi has this wish?"

Quanrou hated the Xun family very much. This hatred was originally due to Xun Yu. Before he was moved to the left prime minister, he was the right prime minister. Later, Xun Yu became the right prime minister.

Logically speaking, Zuo Cheng was ordered by Shangshu Ling, and You Cheng was ordered by Shangshu Ling. Although Shangshu Ling was vacant, Lu Zhi, who was promoted from Shangshu Ling to Taifu, was actually still doing the work of Shangshu Ling. He should be happy.

Quanrou was indeed happy at first.

But as Xun Yu took root in Shangshutai, things began to go wrong. Even Lu Zhi sometimes preferred to leave things to Xun Yu.

His origin is higher than him, his ability is stronger than him, and the Holy Family is infinitely higher than him.

He is highly valued by his superiors and loved by his colleagues.

He was obviously the one who came first!
Jealousy changed Quanrou beyond recognition.
