Allure emperor medical concubine

Chapter 802 Run away
Under Zhao Yincheng's strong request, Lu Xiaoning had no choice but to stay and participate in the so-called celebration banquet hosted by the prefect of Su.

It is indeed worthy of congratulations. Although Master Su and the local salt officials did not make money this time, they have made political achievements. The reform of salt affairs is a major move of the imperial court. The first stop is in Tai'an. It can be done smoothly. It is indispensable that he, the magistrate, should give credit.

Mr. Su wanted to curry favor with Zhao Yincheng. He had inquired about it. The newly appointed Minister of Salt Affairs was the second grandson of Uncle Anping. His father, Zhao Yi, was the crown prince's right-hand man. They were all good friends. Zhao Yincheng and the current emperor also had a very close friendship. , and won the emperor's trust, otherwise he would not have entrusted this important task to him.

If he can curry favor with Mr. Zhao, it will be much easier for him to get promoted in the future.

It's rare for a Beijing official to come to such a small place.

But Mr. Zhao seems to be focusing on that young man named Lu Xiaoning, and even asked Lu Xiaoning if there is anything that needs to be improved in this auction.

Master Su and Sun Yanguan were secretly surprised, and couldn't help but wonder why this person named Lu was so sacred?Lord Zhao treated him so kindly, and was so humble in front of Lu, that he even showed a flattering look from time to time.

"Um...Master Zhao, would you like to introduce this little brother to Xiaguan and Master Sun?" Master Su asked with a shy smile.

Zhao Yincheng glanced at Lu Xiaoning, Lu Xiaoning gave him a low-key hint, Zhao Yincheng met with him, and said with a smile: "This is a good friend of the official, born in a merchant's family, that...you understand."

Lord Su and Lord Sun exchanged glances, both revealing a sudden understanding.

It turned out that he was born in a merchant's family, and the relationship can be so close, could it be that Mr. Zhao has taken a lot of benefits from him.

If this is the case, they can rest assured to "respect" Mr. Zhao.

As for the surname Lu, there is no need to pay too much attention to it.

Lu Xiaoning was very speechless, Zhao Yincheng's last sentence "you understand", was very suggestive.

Damn, you don't want to take bribes, do you?

Sure enough, two "gifts" were delivered to Zhao Yincheng that night.

Zhao Yincheng will not refuse anyone who comes, and the "corruption" is also for the court, and all will be handed over to the national treasury at that time.

Lu Xiaoning's side also gained a lot. After the auction, Zhao Yincheng publicly asked her to stay and have dinner with him.Those businessmen all have vicious eyes and sensitive noses. Seeing that she has such a close relationship with the newly appointed Minister of Salt Affairs, they naturally want to get close. Although fair bidding is implemented now, the relationship is not so important anymore, but who knows what the future policy will be? how to change?There is a way to have one more friend and one more way, not to mention that Lu Xiaoning, a friend, has a big backer behind him.

Lu Xiaoning has a tacit understanding and never refuses anyone who comes. Zhao Yincheng is not afraid of being accused of corruption and bribery. She is not an official, so what is she afraid of if she takes some benefits?
Xiwu counted it, and there were as many as 3000 taels of silver bills alone, as well as jewelry and jade.

Lu Xiaoning asked Ji Jiu to load all the cars and send them to Zhao Yincheng.

Salt merchants gave gifts second, because Dong Fang was bragging outside, saying how well he knew Lu Xiaoning, and wanted to recruit Lu Xiaoning as his son-in-law.

This can be regarded as poking a hornet's nest.

The salt merchants who had just delivered the gifts came back and recommended their daughters to Lu Xiaoning one after another, or girls from their clan who hadn't left the court.

Lu Xiaoning couldn't bear to be bothered, it's almost the same for you to introduce handsome guys to my sister, all of them are women, there is a use for her, and she doesn't like lace.

The next day, before dawn, the three of Lu Xiaoning packed their luggage and left the inn quietly. If they didn't leave, they might be assisted by La Lang.

Zhao Yincheng happened to be dreaming at this moment, and Abu called outside: "Master, Master, I have something important to report."

Zhao Yincheng asked in a daze, "What's the matter?"

"Lu...Lu Xiao...Mr. Lu has run away." Abe still struggled with addressing him for a while, thinking that this is the post office of the magistrate, so he called Mr. Lu cautiously.

"What?" Zhao Yincheng jumped out of bed and opened the door before he had time to put on his shoes.

"Ran?"

"Yeah, I ran away before dawn." Abe said.

"Then did our people keep up?" Zhao Yincheng was afraid that Lu Xiaoning would run away, so he arranged someone to watch near the Yuelai Inn.

Abe replied: "I'm following right now!"

Zhao Yincheng heaved a sigh of relief, just follow along, his secret letter to the emperor had already been sent on the day he found out that Lu Xiaoning was in Tai'an, and it was expedited by [-] miles.

He still thought about making persistent efforts today, and must persuade Lu Xiaoning to go back to Jinling with him, leaving tomorrow, but he ran away.When the time came to go back to see the emperor, the emperor asked where he had gone?If he can't answer, he will definitely be scolded.

Zhao Yincheng thought for a while, and ordered: "You hurry up and inform the others, and we will leave immediately."

"Back to Jinling?" Abe asked.

Zhao Yincheng said: "Why? Go after Lu Xiaoning."

If people don't take it back, he won't have the face to go back.

Lu Xiaoning left Tai'an City and walked slowly south. Xi Wu had already noticed that someone was watching her. Needless to say, it must be Zhao Yincheng who was afraid that she would sneak away and sent someone to watch her.

She just let them stare, she ran to avoid those overly enthusiastic salt merchants, not to avoid Zhao Yincheng, if she expected correctly, Zhao Yincheng would catch up soon.

Zhao Yincheng really came fast enough, at noon, Lu Xiaoning was drinking tea in a tea shed by the side of the road, when Zhao Yincheng arrived.

He walked in with a dark face, and sat opposite Lu Xiaoning without saying a word, his eyes fixed on Lu Xiaoning with a bit of resentment and resentment.

Lu Xiaoning coughed dryly; "Don't look at me like that, am I waiting for you? If I really want to run away, Xiwu will take care of it in minutes with the two stalkers you sent."

Zhao Yincheng's face looked better now, he beckoned for a cup of hot tea, and said angrily, "Then why are you running?"

Lu Xiaoning rolled his eyes and said, "If I don't run away, I will be torn apart by those salt merchants."

Ji Jiu grinned and interjected, "They all want to recruit my son-in-law as their son-in-law."

Zhao Yincheng was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed out loud.

Lu Xiaoning slapped the table in embarrassment, stared at him fiercely, and said: "Why are you laughing? It's not all your fault, you told me to stay for dinner in front of so many people, and when they saw me, they saw me like a hungry wolf Like a fat sheep, last night they took turns to say goodbye, it scared me to death."

Zhao Yincheng couldn't stop laughing, it was so interesting, a bunch of short-sighted people wanted to recruit a son-in-law.

"Xiao Ning, do I praise you for being too handsome? Or do I praise you for looking like a man?" Zhao Yincheng joked.

Lu Xiaoning sneered: "Try it, I will write a letter to Siyao later, saying that you are hugging outside, and see if Siyao believes in you or me."

Now Zhao Yincheng couldn't laugh anymore, and begged for mercy: "My aunt, this joke is not to be taken, it will kill someone."

It's no wonder Siyao didn't kill him.
