Chapter 72: Scarce Talent
Chapter 72
As soon as the morning court was over, the news that the Lu family had a gold medal of immunity from death spread throughout the government.
The Qin family was quite surprised to hear this news, and they just felt that the Lu family was really hidden.
But the Qin family just listened to it and didn't have any thoughts. After all, their Qin family has been loyal for generations, guarding the border with trepidation. Even if they make mistakes in the war in the future, their military merits are enough to offset them. They don't have such treasonous thoughts, so they don't need this.
"Your father-in-law is amazing." Qin Sanlang's focus is different from others.
Qin Sheng nodded, it's really amazing.
Qin Heng has assisted his father in commanding the army for many years in the army, and has managed various positions. He knows that the position that suits his ability is the best. What you are good at can make you do well in the corresponding position, such as their in-laws.
Although Qin Heng is not in the court, he can see clearly that now the Xie and Zhao families are praising him, and the next step is to kill him. In the face of their temptation, he did not fall for it, and threw their bait to a third party, messing up the plans of the Xie and Zhao families.
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's wrong with the father and daughter of the Lu family? They are all very powerful.
At the same time, Qin Sanlang was also very confused. Why didn't the Xie family want such a powerful daughter-in-law and father-in-law? Why is the Zhao family better than the Lu family? Is it because the Zhao family is a family of officials with many years of inheritance, and has more assets, connections, and people than the Lu family?
But the Xie family itself is also a family of officials, and they don't lack these at all. Having them is icing on the cake, and not having them is harmless. On the contrary, it is difficult to find a few talents like the father and daughter of the Lu family in Dali. They are scarce talents and are a perfect match for the Xie family.
Of course, the Lu family and their Qin family are also a good match.
"You have to be more considerate of your wife in the future." Qin Sanlang patted his younger brother's shoulder. He could already foresee that Xiaoliu would be completely bullied by his wife. He wished for the best.
An old fox and a young fox, did his Xiaoliu poke the fox's den?
Qin Sheng rolled his eyes at his third brother. God knows what mess he thought of in his mind.
Although Qin Heng on the side did not speak, he was looking forward to the children that his younger brother and the future sixth brother's wife would have in the future.
Lu Family
As soon as Lu Desheng returned home, he was warmly welcomed by his wife and children again.
The little girl and the son invited him to take a seat, then served him tea and water, rubbed his shoulders and back, and circled around him.
Lu Desheng was very happy drinking hot tea.
Jiang on the side saw her husband's proud face and shook her head helplessly.
"Dad, you did a great job!" Lu Songli and her brother Lu Mingzhi served her father well, and then began to praise him.
Her compliment was sincere. If you don't believe it, please look at her sincere eyes. And her father is really amazing. The Xie family wants to use heavy bait to lure her father into the trap, right? The bait is directly taken away and eaten by you! Her father's move directly made the Xie family lose the position of Dali Temple!
Her father's ability to seize opportunities and act according to circumstances is too strong. In comparison, Xie Mingtang, the head of the Xie family, is much inferior to her father in terms of adaptability.
The exclamation of his daughter made Lu Desheng proud. He touched the sparse beard on his chin and raised the corner of his mouth, "You have abolished one of Zhao Wenkuan's sons, so as a father, you can't be too bad."
After saying this, he said hesitantly, "It's just that our family's gold medal of immunity from death has been known."
"If you know it, you will know it." Lu Songli didn't care. The queen mother knew that their family had won the gold medal of immunity from death, and she would never allow it to be kept secretly in the Lu family and become their life-saving talisman. It would be known sooner or later. Besides, it's a good opportunity to say it out, just to show the generosity and kindness of Emperor Kangcheng, otherwise the emperor will be upset.
When Lu Mingzhi heard this topic, he was confused at first. When did their family have a gold medal for immunity from death? When he heard the end, he found that his family really had a gold medal for immunity from death, and then he was amazed that his father was awesome. He actually got this thing in half a year.
Jiang looked at her husband and daughter, pulled him over, and whispered to him about the ins and outs of the gold medal for immunity from death.
Lu Mingzhi: What did his father say about his second sister? Has she opened up? In his opinion, his second sister's opening is a bit big!
Lu Mingzhi now knows that now his family has more powerful people than just his father, but also his second sister! Then he no longer concealed his admiring eyes. Then later when Lu Songli returned to Xiaofeng Courtyard, he followed all the way.
As the family was talking, Chen, the chief steward, came in and said that the Yao family had sent them something - a small mahogany box.
Lv Desheng took it with one hand, opened it, and found that the Yao family had sent him a box of jewelry this time. There were six pieces, and there were three thousand taels of silver notes in the compartment of the box. Added together, the value was about five thousand taels. He helped to say a word, which opened a way for Yao Songwen to fight for the position of Dali Temple Minister. The Yao family was generous.
The Yao family gave money, so they didn't owe the Lv family a favor. The Yao family knew his attitude from her father's refusal to drink with them after leaving the court, so their family must express something.
Lv Songli felt that it was good now that the goods and money were paid.
Lv Desheng felt very strange. He used to be in charge of killing but not burying, so no one gave him silver 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. I'm still short of money?"
Lu Desheng immediately put the box into his arms happily. He brought it back just like he brought it in. Perfect, a profit!
