"Don't worry, even if I want to, he won't look down on me." Lu Yi said calmly, "Is Mr. Jiang Ge's camp so easy to get into?"
"You want to come in?" Wen Wensong raised his eyebrows.
"The situation in Beijing is complicated, and I will not wade into this muddy water for the time being."
Who can understand what happens next?
"I feel that this visit to Beijing is probably a good thing." Wen Wensong said, "It is very likely that you will be promoted."
Lu Yi was silent.
Seeing how calm he was, Wen Wensong said sourly: "You had expected that, right?"
"For me, a small local official, to come to Beijing to meet the emperor, of course someone said something in front of the emperor. But don't forget how many people I have offended. First of all, Ouyang Jie, and the flower-making forces this time. You I thought that ordinary people could build such a large-scale flower shop, but I’m afraid the mastermind behind it is someone not easy to mess with.”
"It turns out that you have already prepared for the worst."
"So this time I will take Xia Kun there."
"Where's Madam?"
"She has always been smart. She knows that she may encounter trouble when she goes to Beijing this time. Even if I don't let her go, she will follow me secretly. It's better to keep me by my side and watch." Lu Yi smiled lightly.
"Envy! When can I find a wife like this?"
Lu Yi patted Wen Wensong on the shoulder: "I heard that you always go to Zhinu Pavilion to order clothes recently. How many clothes can you make per month with your moon silver?"
Wen Wensong was a little embarrassed when his thoughts were exposed, but he was thick-skinned and quickly changed the topic.
A few days later, Lu Yi and Mu Siyu took Xia Kun and others into Beijing.
They were not in a hurry, but they did not linger on the road either.
More than a month later, they arrived in the capital.
After arriving in the capital, they first went to find Lu Xuan.
The house Lu Xuan rents is not small. In Beijing, where land is at a premium, this is a place that only someone with some wealth can afford to rent.
An Yiheng also lives here.
Lu Xuan's official position was very leisurely. He went to the Hanlin Academy on time every day to report, and came back when it was time to rest.
"Brother, sister-in-law." Lu Xuan jumped out of the carriage.
"Sir, be careful." Follower Lu An shouted nervously.
"How long have you been here? Why didn't you send someone to find me?" Lu Xuan said excitedly, "Have the servants taken good care of you?"
"Don't worry, the servants have prepared food for us and hot water for bathing. We won't treat ourselves badly." Mu Siyu said, "But your brother has to go to the staff department later. He doesn’t know anything about this place, so take him to show his face.”
They had already written to Lu Xuan about their coming to the capital, and Lu Xuan also knew why Lu Yi came to the capital.
Lu Xuan knew that business was important, and after discussing it with Lu Yi, he took him to the Ministry of Personnel.
Since he arrived in the capital, he had to go to the Ministry of Personnel to report the situation as soon as possible. As for when the emperor would see him, officials from the Ministry of Personnel would have to help him pass the news. Otherwise, how could he, a local official, have the qualifications to directly meet the emperor? He didn't have to wait for the emperor to send someone to inform him before he could enter the palace.
Mu Siyu had nothing to do, so she just wandered around.
"Madam, someone invites you to drink tea." A young man dressed as a guard blocked her way.
She looked up at the teahouse opposite.
There is someone there, but I don't know who it is.
Zi Su and Zi Yuan became nervous.
"Madam, what should I do?"
"Since someone invites us to drink tea, we can't live up to others' kindness and go up and have a look."
Look at this man's skills, even if they want to leave, they can do so.
As we entered the teahouse, a melodious piano sound sounded.
Immediately afterwards, a handsome young man sat in front of him.
The young man was holding tea and drinking. When he saw Mu Siyu walking towards him, he smiled lightly and said, "Here he comes."
"It turns out it's you." Mu Siyu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the real owner, "I thought I was in trouble when I first came to the capital. But think about it, there's no one I know here, how could he be so dark-faced?
As soon as I arrived, I was hated by others.”
Wen Yi said: "Try the tea here."
"How did you know that I came to the capital?" Mu Siyu asked.
"Every move you make in Hubei City is under Xi's nose." Wen Yi made no secret of Prince Zhong's concern for them.
"You are not afraid of scaring me when you say this to me." Mu Siyu looked at him, "Your health looks better. Could it be that you met a miracle doctor?"
"It's just using all kinds of precious things to make up for it." Wen Yi said, "This time you made a big noise in Hubei City. Now that I have met you, I will tell you, and you can go back to your family, Mr. Lu.
Just a heads up."
"Well, I'll trouble you then." Mu Siyu listened carefully.
"The recent Paihuazi case involved hundreds of abducted children, including the eldest son of Zhenguo Gongfu. You may not know it, but if you go back and tell Mr. Lu, he must have an impression.
Three years ago, the eldest son of the Duke of Zhenguo was abducted and has not been traced for these years. This time he was rescued by Mr. Lu and sent back home."
"It should have been a joyful thing for Duke Zhen Guo to find his eldest son. But as soon as the eldest son returned home, Duke Zhen Guo found out based on his description that he was actually related to a certain minister in the court who had an old grudge. From then on,
That minister implicated other people. What was originally just a case of philandering among the people, now turned into mutual suspicion between the ministers of the court and the central government. The emperor was very troubled by this matter and called Mr. Lu here. Firstly, because he knew that he had extraordinary political achievements.
,The second reason is because of this case.”
"Is it possible that our Mr. Lu is still guilty after finding out this case? Did he save the eldest son of the Duke of Zhenguo or was he wrong?"
"No, it's just that certain interests are involved, and there will definitely be some twists and turns. Of course, Mr. Lu's achievements in Hubei City have long been spread to the capital. Originally, before the Huazi case was taken, a minister here in the capital had already written to Mr. Lu
I was striving to be promoted to the capital and become a capital official, but who knew that when the Huazi case came out, controversy arose."
Mu Siyu didn't understand the affairs of the imperial court, but what Wen Yi told her was very important. She wrote it down carefully and told Lu Yi later to make him mentally prepared.
"Actually, when you come to the capital, with the ability of Mr. Lu's brother Xia, you will find out these things sooner or later. I am just doing a favor." Wen Yi said, "It will be a matter of time for Mr. Lu to be promoted. I will wait for you.
After entering Beijing, I will still need your help over the stream."
"After Prince Zhong entered the capital, there was a lot of commotion here. We also heard a lot of rumors as far away as Hubei City."
King Zhong became more and more violent after entering the capital.
It is said that many ministers were beaten by him.
Wen Yi took a sip of tea: "Others want such a loyal king, so he can only be such a loyal king, because such a loyal king is useful to them."
"We haven't seen each other for a long time, why don't you invite me to tea?" Mu Siyu said, "What else is interesting in this capital? They are busy recently and I don't have any friends to accompany me. Why don't you take me around?"
