Chapter 72
As soon as the court broke up, the news that the Lu family had a gold medal for immunity from death spread throughout the official family.
When the Qin family heard this news, they were all surprised. They just felt that the Lu family was really secretive.
But the Qin family just listened and had no idea. After all, the Qin family has been loyal and loyal for generations and guarded the border cautiously. Even if they made mistakes in the war in the future, their military achievements were enough to offset it, and they had no such treacherous ideas. There was no need for it. Get on this.
"Your father-in-law is amazing." Qin Sanlang's focus was different from others.
Qin Sheng nodded, he was indeed quite powerful.
Qin Heng has assisted his father in commanding the army for many years and has managed various positions. He knows that the position that suits his abilities is the best. Only by what you are good at can you prosper in the corresponding position, such as their father-in-law.
Although Qin Heng was not in the court, he could see clearly that now that the Xie and Zhao families were praising him, the next step would be to make a killing move. Faced with their inducements, he refused to be fooled and instead threw their bait to a third party, messing up the plans of the Xie family and the Zhao family.
Qin Heng explained his interpretation to his two younger brothers in detail.
Qin Sanlang thought about the recent achievements of the father and daughter, and hissed, what happened to the Lu family father and daughter? Each one is extremely powerful.
At the same time, Qin Sanlang was also very puzzled. Why on earth did the Xie family not want such a powerful daughter-in-law and father-in-law? How is the Zhao family better than the Lu family? Is it just because the Zhao family is an official family that has been passed down for many years and has more assets, connections, and people than the Lu family?
However, the Xie family itself is also an aristocratic family, and there is no shortage of these. Having them is the icing on the cake, but not having them does no harm. On the contrary, it is difficult to find many talents like the Lu family and his daughter in Dali. They are rare talents and are a perfect match for the Xie family.
Of course, the Lu family is a good match for their Qin family.
"You have to give in to your wife in the future." Qin Sanlang patted his younger brother on the shoulder. He could already foresee that Xiao Liu would be eaten to death by his wife, so wish yourself good luck.
An old fox and a little fox. Did his Xiaoliu poke a hole in the fox's den?
Qin Sheng rolled his eyes at his third brother. God knows what other messy things came to his mind.
Although Qin Heng on the side did not speak, he was looking forward to the children his younger brother and his sixth younger siblings would have in the future.
Lu family
As soon as Lu Desheng returned home, he was once again warmly welcomed by his wife and children.
The daughter and son invited him to sit down, then brought him tea and water, rubbed his shoulders and back, and then walked around him.
Lu Desheng was feeling happy while drinking hot tea.
Ms. Jiang on the side saw her husband's proud face and shook her head helplessly.
"Dad, you did a great job!" Lu Songli started to praise her father after she and her younger brother Lu Mingzhi served her father well.
Her compliment is sincere. If you don't believe me, just look at her sincere eyes. And her father is really powerful. The Xie family wants to use heavy bait to lure her father into taking the bait, right? The bait will be taken away and eaten directly by you! Her father's move directly caused the Xie family to lose the position of Minister of Dali Temple!
Her father's adaptability was so strong that he took every opportunity to act according to the situation. In comparison, the adaptability of Xie Mingtang, the head of the Xie family, was much inferior to that of her father.
His daughter's exclamation made Lu Desheng feel proud. He touched his sparse beard on his chin and raised the corners of his mouth, "You crippled one of Zhao Wenkuan's sons, so you can't be a bad father."
After saying this, he said with some hesitation, "It's just that our family's death-free gold medal has been known to others."
"You know it if you know it." Lu Songli didn't care. The Queen Mother knew that their family had won the gold medal for immunity from death, and she would never allow it to be kept secretly in the Lu family and become their life-saving talisman. Everyone knew that this would happen sooner or later. . Besides, taking this opportunity to speak out would just show Emperor Kang Cheng's generosity and benevolence, otherwise the emperor would be in trouble.
When Lu Mingzhi heard this topic, he was confused at first. When did his family have a gold medal to avoid death? When he heard the end, he realized that he really had a gold medal to avoid death, and then he was amazed, his father was so awesome, he actually got this thing in the past six months.
Jiang glanced at her husband and daughter, pulled him over, and whispered to him the ins and outs of this death-free medal.
Lu Mingzhi: What did his father say about his second sister? Is she enlightened? In his opinion, his second sister's acupoint is a bit too big!
Lu Mingzhi now knew that the most powerful person in their family now was not only his father, but also his second sister! Then the adoring eyes could no longer be concealed. Then later when Lu Songli returned to Xiaofeng Courtyard, he followed her all the way.
While the family was talking, Manager Chen came in and said that the Yao family had given them something - a small mahogany box.
Lu Desheng took it with one hand, opened it, and found that the Yao family had sent him a box of jewelry this time. He counted six pieces, and there were also three thousand taels of silver notes placed in the compartment of the box. In total, the value is about five thousand taels. He said something to help Yao Songwen to fight for the position of Minister of Dali Temple. This was considered generous by the Yao family.
If the Yao family gives money, they no longer owe the Lu family any favors. The Yao family knew about her father's attitude since he refused to drink with them after he left the court, so their family must have something to show for it.
Lu Songli felt that it was good to have both money and goods now.
Lu Desheng felt strange. He used to be in charge of killing and not burying people, so no one gave him money afterwards.
As for those who offered him benefits beforehand and asked him to help bring down people, he refused them all. He is that unruly wind who doesn't want to listen to anyone's orders except the emperor. In the court, he would spray whomever the emperor asked him to spray. When the emperor did not tell him, he would spray whomever he wanted. He was so willful.
As a result, his colleagues all avoided him, and naturally no one offered him any benefits.
As for the source of the Lu family's money, in addition to the salary issued by the imperial court, the Jiang family used the money they had saved over the years to use the profits from the business of the shop, and there were also rewards from the emperor from time to time. Compared with other censors in the censorship station who were paid to do things, Lu Desheng's income was not much.
The next day, Lu Desheng brought these into the palace and handed them all to Emperor Kang Cheng. Then he looked at him eagerly, hoping that the emperor would reward him a little.
Emperor Kang Cheng looked at it and nodded. The Yao family was quite sensible. He turned around and saw Lu Desheng's appearance. He couldn't help laughing and scolding, "Just keep the banknote. Is there any money left for me?"
Lu Desheng immediately put the box into his arms happily. He brought it back just like he brought it in. Perfect, a profit!
