Rebirth of the First Emperor

Chapter 8: The Lu family turned over

Ying Zheng almost wolfed down the food that he usually couldn't see at all. Ying Zheng was forced to starve and there was really no other way. He felt like he didn't know the taste of meat in March.

After dinner, 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 but ask a question, which was about the Longgang fiefdom. What did the old man think about it?

The matter is not very clear, but the situation at that time is still told. Lu Qing, a small seventh-level county prince, came so grandly. The problems in this have to make people think deeply.

"It seems that there are still a lot of problems in this. At least Lu Qing is not as simple as he seems, otherwise it would be impossible to get the joint recommendation of the three princes of the imperial court. There is definitely a shadow of the royal family in this, but what is there in Longgang that is worth it?

How can the royal family plan such a big plan?" Ying Zheng thought with some confusion, "Also, if I killed Lu Qing, wouldn't that disrupt their plan? In this way, I can't continue to stay.

Come here, otherwise the elderly will be harmed."

After making up his mind, Ying Zheng continued to fall asleep. These days of injury can easily make people feel haggard. According to the old man's story, Yeye You County is still a few days away from Dingjiang County, so Ying Zheng is still safe for the time being.

.

In the next two days, Ying Zheng rested peacefully at the old man's home. Peng Yuan was a woodcutter. He originally had an only son at home, but he was abducted by traffickers five years ago. The old man Peng Yuan's wife was on the spot when she learned the news.

He fainted from anger, fell ill in bed, and passed away soon after, leaving the old man Peng Yuan alone.

During the past two days, Ying Zheng suddenly discovered a strange thing, that is, the wound on his leg was healing rapidly. This is indeed a bit unbelievable. He fell from a waterfall dozens of meters high and was injured.

It took less than three days to almost recover, which no one can believe.

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

At this time, the Imperial Guards who rushed from the capital also arrived at Dingjiang County, a county in Dongzhou. After that, the entire Dingjiang County was under martial law. Lin Bin, the 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 soon. Lin Bin was not able to become the county magistrate just by flattering others. He had some real abilities. The only thing that could alert the imperial court in a place as quiet as Dingjiang County

There was only one thing that happened, and that was the death of County Marquis Lu Qing. Lin Bin never expected that Lu Qing had such great energy and could alarm the court even after his death.

Now it was Lin Bin's turn to feel uneasy, but no matter how uneasy he was, Lin Bin had to start preparing to welcome the imperial envoy. Apart from anything else, Lin Bin thought that he still had some energy, at least he still knew many dignitaries in the capital.

My lord, I thought that no matter how powerful the Lu family was, I wouldn't have much trouble. After thinking about this, Lin Bin became happy again. It was him who was sent by the imperial court to Dingjiang County. The day when Lin Bin would rise to prominence was not far away.

.

As long as he serves the Imperial Envoy well and speaks kind words in front of the Emperor, Lin Bin can imagine the days to come. Thinking of his future, Lin Bin couldn't help but get excited and quickly sent someone to make careful preparations. The Imperial Envoy is here.

The first stop after that will definitely be at the county government office, so the county government office must look brand new.

Of course, Lin Bin's thoughts were very beautiful, but it was a pity that these were all unrealistic dreams, because at this time the imperial envoy had already arrived in Dingjiang County, but the imperial envoy did not settle in the county government. At this moment, the imperial envoy was in Dingjiang County.

The Lu family expresses 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 entered Dongzhou Hewei County two days ago, but I don't know why Li Tianfu only showed up today.

"It is Lu Yan's great fortune that you have come to attend my father's funeral. Lu Yan is very grateful. Lu Yan has already prepared the room for you. You may as well take a rest after coming all the way." Lu Yan stood respectfully at Li's side.

Behind Tianfu, he held his hands and saluted. Li Tianfu, who was offering incense to the deceased, turned around and revealed a rather majestic face. There was a sense of vicissitudes in his eyebrows and his face had clear lines. He must have been a rare beauty in his early years.

man.

"My dear nephew, please come with me." Li Tianfu said. Lu Yan understood and personally led Li Tianfu to the backyard. Along the way, Li Tianfu asked in detail about Lu Qing's murder. Lu Yan told him everything he knew.

After a while, the two of them entered a relatively hidden room.

Li Tianfu sat on the throne, and Lu Yan stood below and listened to Li Tianfu's instructions. "This time the Lu family has suffered a catastrophe, I am deeply sorry for it. I hope that my nephew can show his condolences and accept the change." Li Tianfu is like a man.

The uncle next door said to Lu Yan very kindly.

"Thank you for your concern, sir. Lu Yan is deeply honored." Lu Yan expressed his gratitude in cooperation. However, Lu Yan knew that this was just superficial words now and Li Tianfu's real intention was still behind, so after expressing his gratitude, there was no further movement.

"My dear nephew, do you know how your father, the seventh-grade county prince, came to be?" Li Tianfu asked, but his eyes were staring at Lu Yan closely, and he naturally wanted to squeeze Lu Yan with a powerful force.

And go. If a group of people really can't resist Li Tianfu's pressure.

However, Lu Yan is not too cold about this. As the most outstanding acting genius of the Lu family, Lu Yan can pretend to be a playboy since childhood, and then immediately pretend to be a dutiful son after his father's death, so Lu Yan's acting skills are in place.

Following Li Tianfu's question, Lu Yan showed a slightly surprised look, and after a while he continued to answer: "In the tenth year of King You, my father was awarded the title of County Marquis for his merits in suppressing thieves. Isn't it like this?" He showed a normal question.

.It can be said that even an old fox who has been crawling around in a intrigued place like the court for more than ten years did not see any flaws in Lu Yan's performance, which shows how perfect his acting skills are.

"No, there is nothing wrong with your father being promoted to a noble title due to his meritorious service, but don't you know the situation when your father was granted the title of marquis at that time? You must know that the three public officials in the dynasty jointly recommended it. Is it possible to enjoy it just because of a small meritorious service in suppressing thieves?

"Li Tianfu saw that nothing could be found through testing, so he pretended that Lu Yan didn't know the situation at that time, so he prepared to slowly seduce him.

"Is there any hidden secret here? Please tell me clearly." Lu Yan asked pretending to be hesitant. In fact, Lu Yan already knew the details, but when Li Tianfu suddenly said this, it was obvious that he suspected that Lu Yan was

Although Lu Yan was a little angry at the man who killed his father, he had to continue the play after it got to 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 Dongzhou Bingcao's governor. During a raid on bandits, he found an ancient map. The things recorded on it were very important to Da Chu. The matter was of great importance. Your father would not

Dare to keep it privately, so he handed it over to Taiwei Yang Nian, who was inspecting the border defense in Dongzhou at that time. Mr. Yang immediately reported it to the emperor. Later, your father was promoted to a noble rank and granted the title of Longgang fief." Li Tianfu recalled.

, these things were all told to him personally by Taiwei Yang Nian when he was about to leave Beijing a few days ago, and they also included a series of tests.

Lu Yan showed a surprised expression. In fact, Lu Yan knew more details than Li Tianfu, and for this reason, even Li Tianfu, who was an imperial envoy, did not dare to put on any airs in front of him. The biggest one these days is the capital.

That person, and it happened that the Lu family was working for that person in the capital, and it was still confidential.

"This time I came here, firstly, to inspect the Dongzhou border defense, and secondly, for the sake of my nephew's title." Li Tianfu said with some pride. This was a deliberate show of goodwill to Lu Yan.

How could he not know that the Lu family is currently receiving divine favor? Lu Yan doesn’t know anything now and thinks that the Lu family will lose the title of Qipin County Marquis. What Li Tianfu did was to provide help in times of need, as long as he deliberately used it at the critical moment.

Take care of the Lu family and Lu Yan will be grateful to him.

"Thank you, sir. The entire Lu family can't thank you enough." Lu Yan greeted the women in Li Tianfu's family in his heart, but he expressed his gratitude against his will. Li Tianfu's face couldn't help but twist into the word "Chuan", because Lu Yan

These words are obviously talking about Tai Chi. It seems that this boy is not as naughty as he seems on the surface. In fact, he is also slippery and tight! But Li Tianfu can't say anything. This time he came to Dingjiang County because of King Chu You himself.

Li Tianfu did not dare to violate his will.

"You're welcome. Based on your performance during this period, I will recommend you as a Xiaolian. The documents are already on their way to the capital." Li Tianfu said, although he was annoyed with Lu Yan's cunning, but he was also

It's a coincidence that Lu Yan was recommended as Xiaolian by himself, so when it comes to traveling, he can be regarded as half of his student.

"Thank you very much, Sir, for lending a helping hand to the Lu family in this difficult time. Lu Yan is deeply grateful. Everyone in the Lu family will remember you."

Only after making heart-wrenching conditions did he admit Li Tianfu's kindness to the Lu family.

"Well, that's right. I will accompany you to the county office tomorrow to inspect the government affairs of Dingjiang County." Li Tianfu said happily when he saw this. Lu Yan's eyes flashed with a trace of ruthlessness and a trace of playfulness. This was a sign of respect for Lin Bin of Dingjiang County.

of.

Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. In just a few days, the roles between Lu Yan and Lin Bin should have changed. Human affairs are really fickle. Thinking of Lin Bin's surprised expression tomorrow, Lu Yan was agitated.

Ruyi, why did Lin Bin still want to bully this once No. 1 dude in Longgang? A dude wouldn't wait ten years for revenge like a gentleman, they couldn't wait even a moment.
