He was spineless at first, but after two years he still looked like a bear. Zhu Hao didn't know what to say.
Do you really plan to die in old age without even having someone to send you to? How do you expect me, a nominal student, to support you in your old age? Can’t you give yourself a whole pillow or something?
Return to the house on the west side of Jinyiwei Yamen.
Lu Song came over to inform the situation: "...the case of former Ministry of Civil Affairs Lu Shangshu has been settled. The female relatives of the Lu family in the capital have been pardoned for the time being. However, most of the Lu family have been exiled to Xuanfu and other places. It will take about a few months to
They returned to their hometowns one after another. Miss Lu from the Jiaofang Division was also pardoned, but it seems that some people are unwilling to give up."
Zhu Hao said: "Everyone is already innocent. Is there still someone who wants to force a good girl into prostitution?"
Lu Song hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth: "It's Mr. Yang who passed the Gongshi exam together with Mr. Zhu before. I also heard that he is very close to the second young master from Yang Ge's hometown."
"oh."
Only then did Zhu Hao remember that the man from the Jiaofang Division had said yesterday that he would leave Lu Zhanqing to the young master from Yangge's hometown. Could it be that he was not talking about Yang Shen, but Yang Shen's younger brother Yang Dun?
Yang Dun was a Jinshi in the second year of Jiajing, which means that he has not yet achieved the title of Jinshi in this term, but because he has a chief assistant father, he has become one of the top officials in the capital. With Yang Tinghe's current status in the court, let alone his status,
Lu Zhanqing, who was trapped in the Jiaofang Division, even if he really wanted to force a good girl into prostitution, the government would not dare to intervene.
"Why won't you give up? But someone comes to rob me?"
Tang Yin asked smoothly.
Lu Song replied: "All the Lu family's property in the capital has been confiscated. Now Miss Lu has nowhere to go. It may take a few days to find a place to settle down, or she may have to temporarily attach herself to the Jiaofang Division. Those two Young Masters, it is convenient for them
I'm going to harass you today."
"So unscrupulous?"
Zhu Hao said with a smile, "The young master from my hometown robbed a daughter of the people. This is really a big deal... Why don't we go and take a look?"
Tang Yin shook his head and sighed: "Zhu Hao, with your reserved personality, you shouldn't want to join in the fun... You have to go alone!"
Zhu Hao said: "How boring is it to go by yourself? We invite Shang Lu Qianhu to come with us. We might even have to find a bunch of people to watch and join in the fun. Anyway, I'll get to know each other first."
…
…
Jiaofangsi back alley.
In the afternoon, Yang Weicong, Yang Dun and others came to take Lu Zhanqing away by force. However, Lu Zhanqing was no longer a member of the Jiaofang Division. Even if she was in the Jiaofang Division, she would not be influenced by outsiders, so she did not even see her.
She hid in the residence arranged for her by the Jiaofang Division and did not come out.
When Zhu Hao, Lu Song and others arrived, several people here were still discussing how to pry open the door.
"Oh, isn't this Mr. Yang? It's been a long time." Zhu Hao took the initiative to say hello from afar, which immediately attracted the surprised looks of a group of people, mostly people brought by Yang Weicong and Yang Dun.
Maybe they also knew that coming to the Jiaofang Division to pick up the daughter of the guilty minister was not a glorious thing, so they didn't call any friends, but brought a lot of domestic slaves with them.
Yang Weicong frowned: "Is it you?"
Then he waved his hand and asked the servants around him to step aside.
Yang Dun looked at Zhu Hao and looked at Yang Weicong curiously: "Who is it?"
Yang Weicong didn't want to introduce Zhu Hao to Yang Dun. As a new scholar, Zhu Hao was the first to take the examination. For the time being, his talents, knowledge and fame were ahead of Yang Weicong. Yang Weicong approached Yang Dun more for the convenience of himself to obtain fame. Of course not.
He will introduce Zhu Hao to cause trouble for him.
"This is Young Master Yang, right? The second Young Master from Yang Ge's hometown, I have admired his name for a long time, but I don't know what he is doing here today?" Zhu Hao looked like he was watching the excitement.
Yang Weicong said: "What's happening here has nothing to do with you, get out of here!"
Zhu Haoqi said: "If you can come to the Jiaofang Division, I can naturally come. Speaking of which, my unlucky disciple has gone to nowhere in the past two days, so I came here to look for someone... They have nothing to do with each other.
You do your thing, I'll have someone go in and look for it..."
Immediately after Zhu Hao, Yu San and others walked out and entered the Jiaofang Department.
Someone looked over at the alley entrance. It looked like there was going to be a conflict among the people gathering here. People from the capital of the Ming Dynasty also liked to join in the fun, so it didn't take long before the alley entrance was filled with people.
Yang Weicong sneered, as if he knew he couldn't stay long, and stepped forward to smash the door: "Open the door! Open the door quickly! If you don't open the door, they will break in. Don't blame me for being rude!"
At this time, people were already coming to the alley. Some of them were the servants who had followed Zhu Hao to the capital to take the exam. They pretended to be watching the people and shouted: "Hurry, hurry, hurry, there is a good show here. Someone is coming to the Jiaofang Division."
Rob someone."
In order to show that the matter had nothing to do with him, Zhu Hao took a few steps back, then put his hands in his hands to watch.
"Open the door!"
Yang Weicong became anxious and waved his hand, and someone immediately came forward and knocked on the door.
Zhu Hao couldn't help but remind him: "This is a government office after all. If you want to arrest a wanted criminal, should you ask someone from the government to handle the matter? Mr. Yang, who are you here to find?"
More and more people gathered, and someone in the crowd shouted: "I heard that Lu Shangshu's granddaughter has reduced her crime and redeemed herself. Could it be that she is here to rob Miss Lu?"
"Miss Lu, she is a famous lady in the capital..."
"Now that I am no longer a sinner, how can I still openly rob?"
Zhu Hao didn't need to speak. The person Yu San found was like no other. He was sharp-tongued and spoke with a Beijing accent like a native of the capital. He shouted with an uprightness unique to northerners, and the onlookers immediately started talking.
Originally, Zhu Hao was planning to ask Yang Weicong and Yang Dun what they were going to do, but now there was no need to speak. He simply walked a little further away and watched the excitement from half a street away.
The door was finally broken open.
At this time, Lu Zhanqing rushed out of the yard and shouted: "Now I am a good man, if you mess around, I will die in front of you!"
Yang Weicong said hurriedly: "Miss Lu escaped from prison only because of the mediation of Second Master Yang. Now that you have no other place to stay, I have prepared a sedan to take you to a suitable place to stay. How can you not appreciate it?"
Lu Zhanqing took out a pair of scissors from his arms and put it directly against his neck.
The crowd immediately started shouting: "I'm robbing people. If I don't succeed, I'll force them to death!"
Yang Weicong and Yang Dun didn't expect that Lu Zhanqing had such a strong personality that he would kill himself if they disagreed?
Yang Dun was about to rush up and say something, but was stopped by Yang Weicong, who whispered something into his ear.
Then, although Yang Dun was reluctant, he still bowed his hands and said, "I may have had a misunderstanding with Miss Lu. I'll explain it to you later... Let's go!"
Zhu Hao didn't need to guess, he already knew what Yang Weicong said. He probably said that the situation was difficult to control and that spreading the news would affect Yangge's reputation as an old man. He advised Yang Dun to stop, and also told Yang Dun that Lu Zhanqing had no place for the time being.
Go and you'll give in sooner or later.
…
…
Er Yang took the people away.
The crowd of onlookers were in no hurry to leave. Jiaofangsi was already a lively place.
In addition, Lu Zhanqing's incident attracted the attention of the little sisters living nearby, and many people opened the courtyard door to check the situation, which even made those crazy bees and butterflies want to see the top card for free without spending any money.
Before Lu Zhanqing closed the door, she glanced at Zhu Hao. Although she had never spoken to Zhu Hao directly before, she vaguely heard Zhu Hao's voice and thought it was similar to the voice of the person in front of the screen last night.
When the two looked at each other, Zhu Hao saw Lu Zhanqing's true appearance for the first time.
The autumn water is the sacred jade, the bones are the same, the hibiscus is like the face and the willows are like the eyebrows, it is the beauty of the country and the fragrance of the sky, and the beauty is unparalleled.
Then the door closed.
Lu Song asked: "Can we arrange a place for her?"
Zhu Hao curled his lips, shook his head and said: "We have nothing to do with each other, why should we take the initiative? But if I sit back and watch her being pestered, I always feel that I have harmed her... If I didn't say those words to her last night, maybe she would have accepted her fate.
Instead of looking for life and death like now."
Lu Song smiled slightly: "So Mr. Zhu still wants to make proper arrangements?"
"Lao Lu still understands me. Men can be duplicitous. I am younger, but I am also essentially a man who is duplicitous."
Zhu Hao said with a smile.
At this time, Yu San and others came out of the back door of Jiaofangsi, dragging Sun Ru, who was half-awake from a hangover, with them.
Zhu Hao said he came to see his disciples, but he really came to see his disciples, because Sun Ru drank too much with a group of supervisors last night and did not return to his residence at all.
Saving people is just "going along the way".
"gentlemen……"
Sun Ru looked ashamed after seeing Zhu Hao.
Zhu Hao said: "I really don't know what's good or bad. How can you be a good errand if you're such a bad drinker? Let's go!"
By now the crowd of onlookers had almost dispersed.
Zhu Hao walked to the courtyard where Lu Zhanqing lived and said loudly and deliberately: "We will arrange a sedan chair. You can walk or leave as you like. I won't say any good things a second time!"
…
…
Zhu Hao took Sun Ru to a nearby teahouse to drink tea to sober up Sun Ru.
"You are really good at drinking tea. How long did you drink last night?" Zhu Hao looked at Sun Ru and yawned all day long. He really wanted to pour a pot of tea on his head to let this student calm down.
It was all arranged to enter the Imperial College, and as soon as the imperial eunuch entered, he would get the salary from the teaching decree. After a while, he would become a scholar and have an official status, but Sun Ru was so unwilling to make progress.
Sun Ru cried sadly: "They always made me drink last night..."
While they were talking, a small sedan came out accompanied by a third class of people and really took Lu Zhanqing out.
Previously, when Yang Weicong and Yang Dun went to pick up someone, Lu Zhanqing refused even if they threatened to die, but Zhu Hao just said a casual word at the door and took the person away.
From this point Zhu Hao can tell that this is a smart woman.
"Sir, who is in the sedan?" Sun Ru saw Yu San. Since Yu San was accompanying him in carrying the sedan, the people inside were probably arranged by Zhu Hao.
Zhu Hao glanced at him sideways: "Does it have anything to do with you?"
Sun Ru was annoyed, but she still stretched her head and looked outside.
Lu Song came up from downstairs. His people would escort Lu Zhanqing to a safe place. It was hard to say anything when Sun Ru was there.
Zhu Hao said: "But it doesn't matter."
Lu Song said: "As soon as the sedan arrived, I knocked on the door. Someone inside saw it through the crack in the door, so they opened the door and entered the sedan. I think it was to repay the kindness."
Zhu Hao shook his head: "What do you mean by repaying a favor? He said it as if he wanted to do something to her... She could distinguish between friends and foes, the interests and the disadvantages, and she also knew who could help the Lu family... She was so scheming at such a young age.
, it’s also caused by too many experiences.”
Lu Song nodded with a serious look on his face.
Lu Zhanqing is only one year older than Zhu Hao, and is just fifteen years old. Yang Dun and Yang Weicong are both "old men" in their thirties. A little girl is being stared at by a group of old men. Doesn't she know who is plotting against her?
Zhu Hao only saw her last night. Today, Lu Wan was exempted from the death penalty and the Lu family was free again.
When Yang Dun and Yang Weicong came to press, Zhu Hao showed up at the right time. If he didn't accept Zhu Hao's "good intentions" at this time, then Lu Zhanqing would probably have no choice but to go to a dead end.
