438: The curtain opens

The Lin clan occupies important positions in Wuzhou.

In these years, Lin Ruofu has been obsessed with court and has not done much to help the clan in his hometown in Wuzhou. However, under the strong wings of the prime minister, the Lin family has become the talk of the entire Wuzhou. Matter people.

Lin Wuzhou

This title is the most beautiful praise given by the local people in Wuzhou to Lin Ruofu, who has dominated the officialdom of Qing Dynasty for decades.

Treacherous prime minister, corrupt official, and thief of the country

Although Lin Ruofu did not receive more praise from the Qing Dynasty court.

But in Wuzhou, you will not hear anyone saying that there is anything wrong with the former prime minister, whether it is a scholar coming out of a high school, a peddler in an alley, or even a person in Xicheng City. There are several famous Qinlou and Chu Pavilions, and the beautiful women and beauties there all highly respect our Prime Minister Lin.

If you count Lin Ruofu's life in detail, he has indeed done too many remarkable things.

Win the first prize.

He was born in a poor family, but he eventually ranked first among civil servants and held the position for decades.

The eldest princess looked at him with suspicion.

These incidents have created Lin Ruofu's supreme prestige in Wuzhou.

Lu Ze was half-lying on the soft couch in the house. Heat was rising from the fireplace not far away, making the temperature in the room extremely pleasant.

There is heavy snow outside the window.

God seemed to be very kind. In the afternoon of the second day after Lu Ze and his party arrived in Wuzhou, the originally clear sky with no clouds was suddenly shrouded in dark clouds. In just one day, the entire city of Wuzhou was covered with snow. All white.

Lu Ze squinted his eyes and listened to the whistling wind outside, which kept blowing on the window spirit.

He was humming a little tune to himself, very comfortable. "Your hair is as sad as snow. When we say goodbye, I will burn incense."

Sitting in the old man's chair opposite Lu Ze was Lin. Joff.

If anyone from the Kyoto court is here, they will be shocked when they see Lin Ruofu.

In less than two years, Prime Minister Lin, who had returned to his hometown for retirement, and who was once a very popular figure in the Qing Dynasty, had become like a country man, with his hair combed randomly. Behind his head, he was wearing light-colored thin clothes, and his energy and energy were completely different from those in Kyoto.

After having breakfast, Weng and his son-in-law came here to take a rest.

No one in the entire Lin family dared to come here to disturb, even though some people in the family vaguely knew that it was not just the two Young Masters Lin who returned home this time, but the person to whom the entire Lin family was related seemed to have also come to Wuzhou. .

"Nowadays, Kyoto is in troubled times. His Highness and Wan'er should not come to Wuzhou."

Privately, the father-in-law did not pay much attention to etiquette.

If it were Lin Ruofu in Kyoto, he would never speak so directly.

Lu Ze also found the overly complicated rules very annoying. After listening to his father-in-law's words, he gradually opened his eyes.

Lu Ze yawned boredly. He originally planned to take Wan'er around Wuzhou as an annual vacation for himself, but now the heavy snow fell unexpectedly. Fortunately, they arrived in Wuzhou two days ago. boundary.

"Although there are many things, the strings in people's hearts cannot always be tense."

"After all, the court is the court, and life is the life."

Lin Ruofu seemed surprised by Lu Ze's statement, and he laughed after a long while.

Although there is no longer the intrigue in Kyoto in the past, Lu Ze's father-in-law is gradually showing a trace of his age, but after relaxing his mind, he no longer has to think about so many things. Being able to do this Life is actually a kind of luck.

Lin Ruofu quickly stopped laughing and looked at Lu Ze quietly.

For some reason, he vaguely felt that Lu Ze might be in his truest state at this time. It was hard to imagine that the future emperor of Qing would actually say what he just said. Come.

"Life"

In this case, it seems very abrupt when it is connected with Lu Ze's identity.

But Lin Ruofu prefers to leave the future of the Lin family in the hands of this person who seems to be slightly popular.

At this moment, Lin Ruofu thought a lot.

Strictly speaking, Lu Ze is not actually a good match for Wan'er because his identity is too special.

But things eventually evolved into what they are now. After Lin Ruofu knew that His Majesty intended for him to retreat, he decisively handed over the future of the entire Lin family to Lu Ze. Even for Lin Ruofu, it was definitely a big gamble.

While Lu Ze was chatting with his father-in-law, enthusiastic shouts and shouts came from the courtyard not far away.

Although Lin Ruofu didn't go out, he seemed to know what happened. He glanced at Lu Ze and said gently, "Wan'er and Dabao are both returning to their hometown in Wuzhou for the first time. Brothers and sisters in the clan. Both of them were held in high esteem. At this time, Wan'er probably still cared a little about her identity. Dabao should be having a lot of fun in the snow."

Lu Ze then smiled and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Lin. ”

The two people gradually began to talk about things in the court.

Lin Ruofu thought about those old friends in the imperial court, and a trace of deep nostalgia appeared on his face. Sometimes when he was alone in his room, he would also think about these glorious years in Kyoto. Over the decades, he has carved unforgettable memories.

"Except for His unfathomable Majesty, there are only three people in the civil and military dynasty of Qing that I fear."

Lu Ze listened to his father-in-law's words and took the initiative to say, "Supervise Dean Chen of the hospital is considered one, and there should be Uncle Sinan of the Fan family. I don’t know who the last person is."

Lin Ruofu smiled, raising his brows slightly, with a slight tone in his tone. Surprised "Oh"

"It's not surprising that His Highness can guess Chen Pingping, but how did Fan Jian, a guy who always keeps his head above water, guess it?""

Lu Ze stood up and came to the window. Through the window screen, he looked at the snow falling harder and harder outside.

His voice echoed in the house.

Lin Ruofu was even more surprised, obviously not expecting that Lu Zelian knew such secret things back then.

Unconsciously, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.

Lu Ze seemed to know what his father-in-law was thinking at the moment. He turned his head with a smile on his face, which was very warm. "Could my father-in-law be worried about what happened sixteen years ago?"

Lin Ruofu sighed, not expecting Lu Ze to say it so directly.

The bloody night in Kyoto shocked the entire Qing Dynasty. Countless princes and nobles were killed, including many famous people. Even the eggs were shaken to pieces in the mansion, and on that bloody night, the queen’s family was the first to be shaken.

Lu Ze shook his head, “I don’t take the past events to heart. superior. ”

The Queen reminds Lu Ze from time to time not to forget that the current power of the East Palace is based on the bones of countless relatives. Lu Ze admits this fact, and his various actions will naturally not be affected. The impact of this kind of thing.

But the past events will inevitably affect future generations.

At least the people on Fan Xian's side are not happy to see Lu Ze ascend to that position, and Lu Ze is not happy. Ze Ye has never regarded people like Chen Pingping and Fan Jian as his helpers. Lu Ze can't even trust Emperor Qing, let alone those who have old grudges.

Lin Ruofu knows. Lu Ze told the truth and nodded silently.

As for the many things that happened in Beijing back then, even he, a big man who had been sitting in the court for many years, couldn't help but feel a little a little bit. Frightened, what he wanted to see was that Lu Ze could successfully ascend to that position, and in this process, it would be good to have less trouble.

The main thing is that Lin Ruofu is very concerned about this. The queen in the palace also knows something about her IQ.

"My father-in-law hasn't said yet who the third person is"

The two continued the conversation.

p>

Lin Ruofu said, "It's the old man from the Qin family.

Lu Ze nodded, not surprised, "Although the old man of the Qin family has rarely gone to court in recent years, in the final analysis, he is also the official history of the Privy Council, and he is considered to be the number one figure in the army. His disciples have old friends." All over the army. "

Lin Ruofu stared at Lu Ze and suddenly smiled, "But at this moment, I suddenly felt that His Highness might be scarier than them. "

Lu Ze frowned and was very confused, "Where can I say this?"

"Intuition. ”

Lin Ruofu said no more.

But he remembered the afternoon when he met Lu Ze in Kyoto. Later, after returning to Wuzhou, Lin Ruofu FuOnly then can we gradually figure out some of the flavors. Lu Ze seems to have shown many surprising things in many things in Kyoto.

"Before I left Kyoto, I had made arrangements, so only a handful of people from the civil service lineage joined the East Palace."

"Your Highness, please forgive me for this."< /p>

Lu Ze nodded slightly.

He naturally knows that these old father-in-laws are not weak in the court. Even if he, the backbone, is forced to leave Kyoto, there are still many really useful people under his command, but among these people, those who have joined Lu Ze's command There were only a handful of people, and Lu Ze already knew what his father-in-law from Wuzhou meant.

“If a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it; if it is higher than others, everyone will reject it.”

“The towering tree in the East Palace has grown into a big tree. The scale is such that if all those under me were to join His Highness, it would not only be the second prince who would be uneasy, but he would also not want to see this happen."

" Therefore, it is better to hide in the dark."

Lu Ze did not feel disappointed.

Because after all, his current power on the surface is entrusted to Emperor Qing. Facing the most unfathomable emperor of Qing Kingdom, even if Lin Ruofu has returned to Wuzhou, he Nor dare to rashly use the influence left in the court to do something.

This also illustrates the terrifying nature of Emperor Qing to a certain extent.

People like Lin Ruofu were so in awe of Emperor Qing that they did not dare to hand over their power to Lu Ze at will.

He needs His Majesty to believe that he is truly taking care of himself when he returns to Wuzhou.

"Your Highness does not seem to be very disappointed"

Lin Ruofu did not see any unnecessary emotional changes on Lu Ze's face. It seemed that the power left by the Prime Minister's Mansion was not that big. Lin Ruofu was even more surprised that the son-in-law of the East Palace was confident, or arrogant, to this extent

"Even if we can get the help of civil servants, the current situation will be different." How much influence does it have?" Lu Ze still chose to reveal the details to his father-in-law. "His Majesty's eyes have always been on the military. No matter what the princes do to the court, in his opinion, it belongs to children. Playing house."

Lu Ze said something to Lin Ruofu that really related to the changes in the future.

The latter's brows had been furrowed from the beginning, and it was a long time before he said quietly, "Recently, there was news about Ye Liuyun in the south. Liuyun broke the floor with a single palm of his hand. Your Majesty, for Ye Liuyun, The persecution by the family seems to be a bit serious. Brother Ye Chonggong Dian and his brothers have been driven out of Kyoto one after another. The most important thing is Yun Rui's side."

Lin Ruofu didn't seem to expect that the current situation seemed to be heading towards An opposite direction is going on.

And His Majesty was driving everyone in that direction intentionally or unintentionally. Lin Ruofu looked at Lu Ze and said solemnly, "Your Highness can only stand in front of His Majesty in the future, no matter what happens. ”

This should be Lin Ruofu’s first time against Lu Ze.Speak in this tone.

It can be seen that he subconsciously has no intention of being disloyal to Emperor Qing in Kyoto.

At this time, the father-in-law seemed to see Lu Ze’s indifferent attitude towards many things. This attitude was even slightly revealed when facing the monarchy. This fact made Lin Ruofu feel sad. The inevitable emotion called panic arises.

Lu Ze smiled.

"No matter what."

"My father-in-law, you have already married your daughter."

Enjoying the few annual holidays in Lu Ze At that time, it seemed that nothing was happening in Kyoto.

The second prince became much more stable after his marriage to Ye Ling'er, and even rarely went to Zui Xianju on the Liujing River. The sudden collapse of the Ye family in Kyoto was undoubtedly a great blow to the second prince. It's extremely bad news, but after marriage, Li Chengze has some thoughts of not caring about worldly affairs.

But no one knew that the Second Prince was extremely uneasy because he received the news from the Yue family.

"Junshan Hui"

"Grandmaster Liuyun is so powerful"

The organization named Junshan Hui gradually appeared in people's ears.

It’s just that only the top people in the Qing Kingdom can know this news. Recently, there are rumors circulating in Kyoto that the Grandmaster of the Ye family has shown supreme strength in the south. The people applauded one after another, thinking that the Grand Master was a legendary figure and eager to see him.

Only the people in the court felt that something was wrong.

During this period, the Ye family suffered from His Majesty's unexplained reduction of power. The Kyoto garrison completely changed its doors. It is said that something happened to the palace commander in the Zhengbei camp.

And what does it mean that the great master Ye Liuyun chose to take action at this time?

Lu Ze in Wuzhou also knew all the news in Kyoto.

My father-in-law Lin Ruofu sighed slightly, "I have been in Beijing for many years and have only met Ye Liuyan once, but I think that the great master of Xianyun Yehe will not choose to take action easily, I am afraid there is something hidden."

Lu Ze took a deep breath.

He felt that the curtain was about to open. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
