Scholars unparalleled

Lu Qiping saw Lu Chensheng's eyes, and immediately understood what Lu Chensheng was thinking, and immediately asked a question.

Lu Chensheng nodded when he heard the words. To him, it looked like such a family of officials, didn't he think so?

Lu Qiping smiled when he heard the words, and did not continue this topic, "Stay in the imperial capital for a little longer, the Lu family was sorry for you before, but that was just some people's actions. At that time, your father was in the frontier, and the old man also Not at Lu's house.

Your two mothers had just given birth at that time, so they had nothing to do with them. "

Lu Qiping knew that Lu Chensheng had resentment in his heart, so he pointed at the two people beside him and said.

At that time, they happened to have things to do, and the addition of the two main rooms was at a time when their bodies were weak, so the third lady was allowed to commit crimes.

Lu Chensheng didn't fully believe what he said, no matter what the other party said, they were all under the same roof anyway, and they didn't know everything about the biological mother.

I'm afraid that seeing that my mother is just a maid, I didn't pay much attention to it.

Maybe they didn't commit murder, but they definitely did.

Lu Chensheng fell silent and didn't say anything, which immediately made the atmosphere a little awkward.

The three of them knew that they felt a little guilty, and they all looked at Lu Chensheng apologetically at the moment.

Chapter 162

The next day, Lu Qiping went to court very early, and after Lu Chensheng got up, he washed up and went straight out to burn incense in front of his birth mother's tomb.

Qiong Yue also went to offer incense together, and the worship lasted until evening before they returned to the Lu residence.

Lu Chensheng had just returned to the courtyard when he heard the servants hurried to Lu Chensheng and whispered.

"Young master, the master wants you to go to the study."

Lu Chensheng frowned when he heard this, and after thinking about it, he followed the servants and walked towards the study.

"You're back!"

In the study, Lu Qiping was busy with something, when he saw Lu Chensheng coming, a look of joy appeared on his somewhat old face, and he quickly waved for Lu Chensheng to come to him.

Lu Chensheng walked in, looked around, and saw that the surroundings were full of books, neatly arranged.

Incense was still lit on the side, and there was a faint fragrance in the study.

"Do you have anything to do with me?"

Lu Chensheng was too lazy to be polite to the other party, and asked directly.

Lu Qiping didn't mind when he heard the words, the youngest grandson was still quite hostile to him, so it was naturally difficult to ask Lu Chensheng to be so kind to him at this moment.

But after a long time, some feelings will always be cultivated.

"You have just come to this capital, and I have some things to explain to you. The old man remains neutral in the court. There are not many people following the old man. Most of the ministers have already been poached, either with the crown prince or with the second son. Prince.

Now, Wei Zhen and the others are no longer there. You are new to the capital and these two highnesses are afraid that they will miss you and invite you to join their camp. "

Lu Chensheng's face moved slightly when he heard this.

"Why do you want to remain neutral? Isn't this directly offending both parties?"

Lu Qiping smiled wryly when he heard the words, "The three ministers of the imperial court, the two ministers all have camps, so it doesn't matter, but if the old man also chooses a camp, no matter which side it is, it will only make one of the camps directly expand and overwhelm on the other side.

The reason why the emperor asked the old man's son, Lu Wei, to guard the frontier and control the army is because the old man is neutral and only loyal to the emperor. If the old man loses the crown prince or the second prince, the emperor will be angry.

The emperor is still in power, and the ministers under him are already thinking about choosing the future emperor. "

Lu Qiping shook his head when he said this, he would never do such a thing.

"What's more, there's actually nothing wrong with staying neutral. If you defect to one of them, if one of them fails, the new emperor will settle the score after the fall."

"But if the choice is successful, there will also be a Conglong Gong at that time. Although you will not be settled by Qiuhou, you will inevitably stay away from the center in the future."

When Lu Chensheng heard the words, he responded directly, this can be regarded as the golden mean.

Lu Qiping smiled, "So what's the matter? The old man is already a Zhongshu Ling, and he has already come to an end, and the old man is also old, and having a title to ensure the continuation of the family is actually enough."

"I don't want your title."

When Lu Chensheng heard the words, he immediately replied, he didn't think about staying here for a long time, he just wanted to stay for a while, to see if he could solve the problem of the Tartars' entry, and then left.

Lu Qiping didn't say a word when he heard the words, and Lu Chensheng was still somewhat resistant to him at the moment.

It is normal to not want the title he left behind, and this matter has to be taken slowly.

"So you asked me to come here to talk about this?"

"Now you are the only young man left in the Lu family. Sooner or later, he will be handed over to you. I'm afraid the two princes will come to win you over."

When Lu Qiping heard this, his face became slightly serious.

Now Lu Chensheng's status is different, if Lu Chensheng gets closer to any prince, it will represent the will of the Lu family.

Unlike before, there were so many heirs in the Lu family.

And in this way, I'm afraid that the two princes who have already got wind will try their best to contact Lu Chensheng, so as to win Lu Chensheng into their camp.

As long as Lu Chensheng is won over, Lu Qiping will definitely stand over for no reason.

"Then what if I take refuge in one of the princes?"

Lu Chensheng looked at Lu Qiping in front of him, and asked.

Lu Qiping was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and then smiled, "It's okay to take refuge in the past, the old man will help him to the top, so that you can gain the merits of a dragon, but, this should not be your style."

He only heard that Lu Chensheng didn't want to be an official, and even refused the imperial decree. Now he wants to say that he is helping the prince to fight for the throne, which is a bit wrong no matter how he thinks about it.

Lu Chensheng didn't answer when he heard the words, and he really didn't think about which prince's subordinate he would go to.

"Didn't you hear that there is a third prince?"

"The third prince doesn't need to worry about it. He doesn't have the qualifications to seize the emperor, and he has already opened the mansion in the early years. The third prince only wants to play, but the cost is extremely high. From time to time, he will enter the palace to ask the emperor for money. The emperor frequently gets angry."

Lu Qiping felt a little helpless when he said this.

The national treasury is not very full, and the third prince also has little money, so there is no way he can afford it.

As a result, when the third prince entered the palace to ask for money, he was often scolded bloody.

Lu Chensheng nodded and understood some of the situation in the court.

"By the way, are there many people in the court who know my identity?"

Lu Chensheng asked suddenly.

Lu Qiping immediately shook his head when he heard the words, "I don't think I know much, but the emperor should know right now."

Few things in the imperial capital can be hidden from the emperor.

Lu Qiping knew this well, but he had done everything very carefully before, and the rest of the ministers only knew at the moment that Lu Qiping's former concubine was living outside, as for who it was, it should not be known.

When Lu Chensheng heard this, he was instantly satisfied.

After some things are done, he can leave here quietly.

"Do you think the two princes will be the ones who attacked the Lu family?"

Lu Qiping was startled when he heard this, but he didn't scold Lu Chensheng.

After a while, he shook his head, "This matter has not been found out yet, so don't talk about it indiscriminately."

Did not find out?That means that Lu Qiping already has this doubt in his heart.

When Lu Chensheng heard the words, he knew it clearly, and secretly wrote it down.

"Although you have taken a wife right now, you have not yet consummated your marriage. Many ministers in the court have daughters who look like great ladies and are extremely beautiful. Why don't you find some marriages for you? What do you think?"

Lu Qiping glanced at Lu Chensheng, hesitated and asked.

Chapter 163 Kill me if you have the ability

Lu Chensheng was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, this is what Lu Qiping meant by calling him over, right?

Looking for a few marriages, is this because you want to get a few more wives for yourself, so that you can pass on the family?

Lu Chensheng twitched his cheeks, and waved his hands directly, "You don't need to worry about this matter, if there is nothing else, I will go back first."

After finishing speaking, Lu Chensheng turned around and left.

She thought that the other party was looking for her for something, because she saw that she and Qiong Yue hadn't consummated their marriage for a long time, and he was the only male in the Lu family, so she found herself anxiously.

When Lu Chensheng returned to the courtyard, he happened to see the second lady leave, and his brows furrowed even more.

After entering the courtyard, Qiong Yue's expression was calm, but Lu Chensheng knew what the other party might have said.

"Did she come in just now, saying that she asked her husband to get some wives?"

Lu Chensheng sat down beside Qiong Yue, and asked with a somewhat unhappy expression.

Hearing this, Qiongyue held Lu Chensheng's palm instead, "Husband, with the current situation of the Lu family, you should indeed be taking some wives."

Lu Chensheng was speechless, "Didn't I tell you, don't talk about this matter, your husband doesn't have that idea right now."

Qiong Yue nodded obediently when she heard the words, and didn't say anything more.

In the next few days, Lu Chensheng went to the tomb to worship every day, and did not go until seven days later.

The next day, after finding out the location of Chang'an Yamen, Lu Chensheng set off for it.

Compared with Yunmeng City, or Lin'an Mansion, which Lu Chensheng had been to, the imperial capital is much larger, and there are even more people on the streets.

In terms of the comparison of clothes, the clothes of the people in the imperial capital are indeed much better than those in other places.

Moreover, you can see quite a few scholars on the street. In terms of quantity, they are indeed much more than some small places.

"Please inform me about the Chang'an Order, there are acquaintances visiting from Fufeng City."

Lu Chensheng came outside the yamen, looked at the yamen servants at the side and said with cupped hands.

The yamen servant took a look at Lu Chensheng's Confucian shirt, and didn't dare to neglect, so he hurried in to report.

After a while, Liu Wensheng came out of the yamen in a hurry, and his face brightened when he saw Lu Chensheng.

After hearing that it was someone from Fufeng City just now, he wondered who it could be, could it be Lu Chensheng.

Unexpectedly, Lu Chensheng really came!

Liu Wensheng gave an official uniform now, and compared to before, his face was a bit more stable.

From the looks of it, the position of the Chang'an Order is really challenging.

"When brother Lu came, why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Liu Wensheng complained a bit, and after saying something, he led Lu Chensheng inside.

"Remember, whenever Brother Lu comes here in the future, just introduce him directly."

Liu Wensheng gave instructions to the left and right.

Left and right heard the words and immediately responded, secretly remembering Lu Chensheng's appearance in their hearts.

The current Liu Wensheng is firmly seated in the position of Chang'an Commander, and is deeply loved by the emperor, so he will have a bright future in the future.

They did not dare to neglect the people Liu Wensheng personally entertained.

"I'm going to interrogate the prisoner today. I'm afraid I won't be able to have a drink with Brother Lu until evening. Why don't Brother Lu watch it together?"

With Lu Chensheng around, if he encounters any difficulties later, he can just ask Lu Chensheng to help, which just saves him some energy.

Liu Wensheng had wishful thinking in his mind, but Lu Chensheng didn't think so much.

Just wanting to see how Liu Wensheng is progressing, so he nodded at this moment.

Liu Wen rose to sit on the county magistrate's seat, while Lu Chensheng sat on a chair on the left side below. Turning his head, he could see a lot of people gathered outside, all of whom came to watch the case settlement. .

On the way here, Lu Chensheng had already heard a lot about Liu Wensheng.

Probably because Liu Wensheng used extremely clever means to solve cases one after another, and even overturned the cases of many wronged people, which really left a good impression in the hearts of the common people.

This made some common people come to the government office to watch Liu Wensheng's verdict when they have free time.

"Take the prisoner Wu Shikai."

Liu Wensheng patted the gavel, and immediately a yamen servant viciously lifted him up.

The face of the person who came up was extremely calm, and he didn't pay attention to Liu Wensheng at all.

"My lord, you don't want to interrogate the grassroots. The grassroots just stole some money. It's not a big deal. They can be released after a few days of detention."
