Lu Desheng made such a fuss that many officials were disgraced by him.
There are also many people who seriously doubt that he is idle. It is obvious that since Xu Yue was scolded and his reputation was completely ruined, no one dared to provoke him. What happened this time must be that he deliberately let his eldest son go fishing. It was so insidious!
Lu Desheng's trouble-making behavior did not stop, and a small group of officials from Chang'an City gathered together in twos and threes.
Some officials who were afraid of being implicated took the lead in attacking the perpetrators, "Lu Desheng is not a simple person, nor is he easy to offend. Why do you think you provoke him?"
The official who had already been scolded by Lu Desheng looked very unhappy.
Other officials thought that it was indeed not simple. He was the late emperor's favorite before, but he was still there after the late emperor passed away.
Many officials shouted in their hearts, late emperor, why didn't you take your beloved away and leave her in the world to harm them.
"We can't go on like this!" No one can guarantee that there are no pigtails on the top of their head, nor can they guarantee that their buttocks are clean.
The main reason is that Lu Desheng's mouth is too strong. When the other party's shortcomings are so big that others can't ignore them, he will scold him. When the shortcomings were small and not very noticeable, he would praise them.
If you catch those little flaws, you will praise them to death. The person being praised was quite happy at first, but later on, the smile gradually disappeared, mainly because the words of praise became more and more wrong the more he listened to them.
Someone quickly echoed, "Yes, we definitely can't go on like this." Who knows what he recorded in his thick notebook!
"What can you do to this person? Lu Desheng has already said that he has a gold medal to avoid death!"
The other officials looked very unhappy when they heard this.
Indeed, the officials he scolded hated him so much that they could do nothing against him.
No one can do anything to him.
"Then let him go on like this?"
While everyone was silent, someone seemed to say unintentionally, "Mr. Lu has been keeping to himself for a long time since the death of the late emperor. I don't know why, but this happened suddenly."
The ministers thought, yes, this man has not been ill for a long time, what happened to him? What stimulated you?
Someone subconsciously said, "Isn't he venting his anger on his eldest son by making such a fuss?"
Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, exchanging tacit glances with each other. We are all old bureaucracy, how can we believe everything others say? They have to look past superficial phenomena to see the essence.
As the saying goes, when everyone adds firewood, the flames will rise. Everyone is united as one, united in their efforts, and soon someone found out the cause of Lu Desheng's illness.
"Lu Desheng requested to be released."
When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed.
And such good things? Let him go, let him go quickly!
Lu Desheng has become a shadow in their hearts. Let him leave Chang'an and cause harm to the place!
"But his memorial has been suppressed by the emperor. Recently, it seems that it was rejected by Mr. Zuo's suggestion."
I see!
After learning the reason, everyone glared at Zuo Anmin. If he wants to be released, just let him go! You, Zuo Anmin, are great, but Lu Desheng’s swords and swords are not directed towards you! If you stop him, we will be the ones to suffer! This is unethical!
No, we can't go on like this. They have nothing to do with Lu Desheng. Don't you believe that they can't defeat Zuo Anmin? !
royal palace
The new emperor has a headache. Too many ministers have come to complain to him recently! They all sued Zuo Anmin.
He knew everything that had happened in Chang'an City recently, and of course he knew why Lu Desheng was making such a fuss.
Lu Desheng has been clamoring for release, and has also specified that it must be in or near Pingzhou. He also said that the farthest place he could accept was eastern Youzhou, Youbeiping County and other places. He wouldn't do anything farther away, and no one would even consider Jizhou or Yanzhou.
After people designate a place, there are no requirements for the size of the official position after they are released. Ask yourself, this is not too much to ask.
He kept suppressing this discount.
The new emperor actually didn't care about Lu Desheng's application for external transfer. He had no intention of re-employing Lu Desheng. Since the other party wanted to transfer, it was okay to give him a local official position.
It was Zuo Anmin who disagreed. Recently, Zuo Anmin suggested that he directly reject Lu Desheng's suggestion.
In the past two days, Lu Desheng made another memorial, saying that if it didn't work, he would resign.
It is impossible for him to resign.
Before the late emperor died, he ordered a group of people to be buried with him. After he ascended the throne, he killed a group of people when he encountered someone he was angry about, so that his reputation was not very good.
Lu Desheng was so famous. He was a favorite of the late emperor. He had previously carved seals on the Sanjue Monument together with the late emperor and the three academy chiefs. He was well known to scholars all over the world.
If Lu Desheng resigns in anger, it will only worsen his reputation. Others will only think that he is a new emperor who is narrow-minded. He cannot even tolerate former emperors and old ministers like Lu Desheng.
Zhang Xian reminded him that as an emperor, no matter what happened behind the scenes, his reputation on the surface must be at least decent.
Of course, these things were not the new emperor's thoughts, but Zhang Xian's indirect reminders.
"Your Majesty, ask yourself, is Mr. Lu's request high? Not high. He still has a gold medal for immunity from death, but Mr. Lu has always been quiet and did not do whatever he wanted based on this."
Zhang Xian's words reminded the new emperor of one thing, that is, during the period after the death of the former emperor, Lu Desheng was peaceful. During this period of time, the court was in chaos, but he was very sensible and did not cause chaos to the new emperor during this period.
Thinking of this, the new emperor was pleased with Lu Desheng. Play normally and play again, make trouble again, and don't let go of the chain at critical moments. No wonder the late emperor favored him, he was too discerning and knowledgeable.
If Lu Desheng knew what he was thinking, his eyes would definitely widen.
The emperor misunderstood. It wasn't that he didn't want to cause trouble, but he did.
But before his daughter was exiled, he told him to let him be more peaceful during this period, so he just kept it. Unexpectedly, he also unintentionally gained a wave of favor from the new emperor.
At this time, directly above the new emperor's dragon table, there was Lu Desheng's application notes.
Zhang Xian was waiting on the pen and ink beside him.
The new emperor picked up the imperial pen, dipped it in ink, and said, "I have read it, and I am sure what you have written."
When it was time to use the seal, Zuo Anmin appeared and said, "Your Majesty, you can't."
