First Emperor Rebirth

Chapter 8 The Lu Family Turned Over

Almost devouring the food that he couldn't see at ordinary times, Ying Zheng was forced to be hungry and there was nothing he could do. It felt like he didn't know the taste of meat in March.

After the meal, the old man Peng Yuan told Ying Zheng a lot of common sense about the world. Ying Zheng listened to a lot, but in the end he couldn't help asking a question about the Longgang fief. The matter was not very clear, but I still told the situation at that time. Lu Qing, a small seventh-rank county marquis, came so grandly, and the problems involved had to make people think deeply.

"It seems that there are still many problems in this. At least Lu Qing is not as simple as it seems on the surface. Otherwise, it would be impossible to get the joint recommendation of the three princes of the court. There is definitely a shadow of the royal family in it. It's just that there is something in Longgang that is worth it. How did the royal family spend such a large amount of money on the layout?" Ying Zheng thought a little puzzled, "And I killed Lu Qing, wouldn't that disrupt their layout? Then I can't stay in the Here, otherwise the old man will be troubled."

After making up his mind, Yingzheng went on to sleep again. These days of injury are easy to make people feel haggard. According to the old man, Yeyeyou County is still a few days away from Dingjiang County, so Yingzheng is still safe for the time being. .

For the next two days, Yingzheng spent the next two days recuperating at the old man's home. Peng Yuan was a woodcutter and had an only son at home, but was abducted by traffickers five years ago. The old man Peng Yuan's wife was on the spot when he heard the news. He fainted from anger, and then he was bedridden and passed away soon after, leaving the old man Peng Yuan alone.

During these two days, Ying Zheng suddenly discovered a strange thing, that is, the wound on his leg was healing rapidly. It took less than three days to recover, and no one could believe it.

On the fifth day, Ying Zheng was able to run like a normal person, and he didn't look injured at all.

At this time, the Imperial Army who rushed from the capital also arrived at Dingjiang County, Dongzhou Hewei County. After that, the entire Dingjiang County was under martial law. Lin Bin, the county magistrate of Dingjiang County, was quite shocked at this time, because The imperial guards who came from the capital said that the imperial court would send someone here soon, and that Lin Bin was able to become the magistrate not because of flattery, but because he had some real skills.The only thing that can alarm the court in such a place like Dingjiang County is the death of Lu Qing, the county marquis. Lin Bin never imagined that Lu Qing had such great energy, even if he died Can alarm the court.

Now it's Lin Bin's turn to feel anxious, but no matter how anxious Lin Bin is, he has to start preparing to meet the imperial envoy. Besides, Lin Bin thinks he still has a little energy, at least he still knows a lot of high-ranking officials in the capital. My lord, thinking about it, no matter how powerful the Lu family is, I won’t have much to worry about. After thinking about it, Lin Bin became happy again. He is the imperial envoy sent by the imperial court to Dingjiang County. .

As long as the imperial envoy is well served and good words are offered in front of the emperor, then Lin Bin can imagine the days to come. Thinking of his future, Lin Bin couldn't help being very excited, and hurriedly sent someone to make careful preparations.The first stop of the imperial envoy must be at the county government office, so the county government office must be completely new.

Of course, what Lin Bin thought was very good, but it's a pity that all of these are unrealistic fantasies, because the imperial envoy has already arrived in Dingjiang County at this time, but the imperial envoy has not settled down in the county government. Lu Mansion condolences.

The imperial envoy sent by the imperial court this time is called Li Tianfu, the head of the Li family in the capital. Li Tianfu had already entered Dongzhou Hewei County two days ago, but I don't know why Li Tianfu only showed up today.

"My lord came to attend my father's funeral. It is the good fortune of Lu Yan's life. Lu Yan is very grateful. Lu Yan has already prepared the room. My lord has come all the way to the boat and car, so you might as well take a rest." Lu Yan stood respectfully at Li Holding hands behind Tianfu, Li Tianfu, who was offering incense to the deceased, turned around to reveal a majestic face. There was a sense of vicissitudes in his brows, and his face was well-defined. He must have been a rare beauty in his early years. man.

"Nephew, come with me." Li Tianfu said, Lu Yan would personally clear the way ahead and take Li Tianfu to the backyard. Along the way, Li Tianfu asked in detail about Lu Qing's murder, and Lu Yan knew everything. After a while, the two of them entered a relatively secluded wing room.

Li Tianfu sat on the main seat, and Lu Yan stood below to wait for Li Tianfu's orders. "This time the Lu family suffered a catastrophe, I am also deeply regretful, and I hope that my nephew can express his condolences." Li Tianfu said to Lu Yan kindly like an uncle next door.

"Thank you, sir, for your concern. Lu Yan is deeply honored." Lu Yan thanked in cooperation, but Lu Yan knew that this was just superficial talk, and Li Tianfu's real intentions were yet to come, so after expressing his gratitude, there was no further movement.

"Nephew, do you know how your father came to be the Marquis of Qipin County?" Li Tianfu asked, but his eyes were fixed on Lu Yan, and he naturally wanted to squeeze Lu Yan with a sense of power. and go.If a group of people really can't resist Li Tianfu's coercion.

However, Lu Yan was not too cold about him. As the most outstanding acting talent of the Lu family, Lu Yan could pretend to be a dude since he was a child, and then pretend to be a filial son immediately after his father died, so Lu Yan's acting skills are very good.

Following Li Tianfu's questioning, Lu Yan showed a slightly astonished expression, and after a while he continued to answer: "For ten years in King You, my father was awarded the title of county marquis for his meritorious service in suppressing thieves. Isn't that the case?" .It can be said that Lu Yan's performance, even the old fox who has been struggling for more than ten years in a place like the court, did not see any flaws, which shows how good his acting skills are.

"No, it's not wrong for your father to be a noble because of his meritorious service, but don't you know how your father was enshrined as a marquis at that time? You should know that the three princes of the dynasty were recommended by the same time. Could it be that you can enjoy it just because of a small meritorious service in suppressing thieves? "Li Tianfu saw that he couldn't find anything out of the test, so he pretended that Lu Yan didn't know the situation at that time, so he prepared to say slowly and seductively.

"Well, is there any secret behind this? Please tell me clearly." Lu Yan pretended to be hesitant and asked. In fact, Lu Yan already knew the truth, but Li Tianfu suddenly said that it was obvious that he suspected Lu Yan. Although Lu Yan was a little annoyed at the man who killed his father, he had to continue the play once it reached this point.

"That's right." Li Tianfu stroked his beard and nodded, "Please tell me, sir." Lu Yan said respectfully.

"Five years ago, your father served as the military governor of Dongzhou, and he found an ancient map in the process of suppressing thieves. The things recorded on it were very important to Da Chu, and the matter was of great importance. You dared to keep it privately, so you handed it over to Taiwei Yang Nian, who was patrolling the border defense in Dongzhou at that time, and Lord Yang immediately reported it to the Holy Majesty. After that, your father was promoted to a nobleman and granted the Longgang fiefdom." Li Tianfu recalled , these things were all told to him by Taiwei Yang Nian when he was about to leave Beijing a few days ago, and a series of temptations were involved.

Lu Yan showed a surprised expression. In fact, Lu Yan knew more details than Li Tianfu, and because of this reason, even Li Tianfu, who was an imperial envoy, did not dare to put on airs in front of him. The biggest one these days is the capital city. That one, and it just so happens that the Lu family works for the one in the capital, and it's still a secret.

"This time I came here, firstly to inspect the border defense of Dongzhou, and secondly to come here for the position of my nephew." Li Tianfu said with some pride, this was to show his favor to Lu Yan on purpose, and the people in it How could it be possible not to know that the Lu family is currently receiving great grace?Lu Yan didn't know anything now, and thought that the Lu family would lose the title of Qipin County Marquis. What Li Tianfu did was to send charcoal in the snow. As long as he deliberately took care of the Lu family at critical moments, Lu Yan would be grateful to him.

"Thank you, my lord. The Lu family is very grateful." Lu Yan greeted the women of Li Tianfu's family in his heart, but expressed his gratitude against his will. Li Tianfu's face could not help twisting into the word "Chuan", because Lu Yan These words are obviously playing Tai Chi. It seems that this kid is not as dandy as he appears on the surface, but he is actually very slippery!But Li Tianfu couldn't say anything, this time it was King Chuyou's will to come to Dingjiang County, and Li Tianfu didn't dare to disobey it.

"You're welcome. Based on your performance during this period, I will recommend you as Xiaolian, and the document is already on the way to the capital." Li Tianfu said, although he hated Lu Yan's cunning in his heart, but It's a joy, Lu Yan was recommended by him as Xiaolian, so you can be regarded as half of his student.

"Thank you, my lord, for lending a helping hand when the Lu family was in distress. Lu Yan is very grateful, and everyone in the Lu family will remember you." Only then did he acknowledge Li Tianfu's kindness to the Lu family.

"Well, yes, tomorrow I will accompany the official to the county government to inspect the government affairs of Dingjiang County." Li Tianfu said happily when he saw this. of.

It is said that 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, in just a few days, the roles between Lu Yan and Lin Bin should be replaced by each other, and personnel affairs are really fickle.Thinking of Lin Bin's surprised expression tomorrow, Lu Yan felt a burst of joy. Who knew that Lin Bin wanted to bully this former No. [-] dude in Longgang back then.The dude will not wait ten years for revenge like a gentleman, they can't wait for a moment.
