Lu Qian and Ximen Ye have focused on the lack of Liuhe County Magistrate in recent times. Lu Qian used his family's resources to engage in activities in the Ministry of Personnel's Office, and Ximen Ye helped him offer suggestions. Judging from the current situation, everything goes well. If nothing unexpected happens, Lu Qian should not have much obstacle to filling this lack.

Lu Qian is glad that he has wasted so many years, and now he has finally ushered in the opportunity to achieve great things. He is very confident and ambitious! Unexpectedly, at this moment, Lu Zheng suddenly brought such news.

The King of Qin came to Jiangnan in person?

Because the late emperor purged Jiangnan and suppressed Jiangnan's power clans, Jiangnan's power clans have been very sensitive to every move of the royal family for so many years.

The King of Qin was just named Prince of Five Pearls, and it was definitely not a good thing to suddenly arrive in Jiangnan. Lu Qian suddenly became nervous. He wanted to ask more details, but for the sake of face, it was difficult to speak.

For Lu Zheng, he was unwilling to tell Lu Qian in detail because Lu Qian could not succeed. Even if he was in the Lu family, his name was the second master, but he could not make any decision.

The atmosphere between father and son became awkward again. Lu Qian was worried about the variables that were missing from Liuhe, and his mood was a little low. In addition, he and Lu Zheng had nothing to say, so he waved his hand and said:

"Go, the old man is in a bad condition today, don't say too much!" He paused and said, "Stay at home for a few more days. You must calm down in everything before you can slowly do it!"

Lu Zheng came out of Lu Qian's study and went to Lu Shanchang's residence.

Perhaps because of his age, Lu Shanchang is now living alone and occupying an independent courtyard alone. Although his status is supreme in the Lu family, his residence always gives people a sense of desertedness.

These days, he has been feeling cold due to occasional wind and cold, and has not gone to the yamen for several days, so he has also exempted the rules of setting provinces in the morning and evening. If Lu Zheng had not had a special status, the servants would not dare to disturb the old man's rest.

Lu Shanchang was indeed in a bad state. His face turned pale and he looked much thinner than before. The silver wire on his head was dull. He lay on his back on the chair. When he saw Lu Zheng enter the door, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Lu Zheng stepped forward and bowed in a manner and said, "Lu Zheng has seen his grandfather!"

"Well! Thank you for your hard work!" Lu Shanchang nodded: "I'm sick and I think that I'm not going to go for too long, and I suddenly feel pessimistic. Alas, I've been wasting my life without realizing it. The Lu family has been declining in my hands. Today, the Jiangnan powerhouses are just a name.

Sorry for the ancestors and ancestors, Wuyan met the ancestors and ancestors underground!"

Lu Zheng stood up and said, "Grandfather felt shameless, so he didn't go there for the time being. Live for another twenty years and strive to turn the world around. No one can say good about the rise and fall. It is said that it will take thirty years for Hedong and thirty years for Hexi. It is possible that the Lu family will be in the best position to come soon!"

Lu Shanchang was stunned for a moment, his smile became brighter in an instant, and finally he couldn't help laughing loudly, and his whole spirit seemed to have improved.

"Grandpa is old, and you will depend on the younger generation in the future. By the way, there should be no big problem with this provincial examination, right?" Lu Shanchang said.

Lu Zheng said: "It's hard to say, I'm doing my best, but variables always exist. For example, I just received the news that His Highness the King of Qin will arrive in Jiangnan soon. I was thinking in my mind that I don't know if this Highness is a blessing or a disaster when he comes?"

Lu Shanchang raised his eyebrows and raised his lips, but he stopped talking. After a while, he said, "I heard that Lord Nie Yong's entry into Beijing is a foregone conclusion?"

Lu Zheng said: "Yes, Lord Nie has been in Jiangnan for five years and has been in the opportunity to enter Beijing, so I can no longer stop it, and I can do nothing about it!"

"Everyone has ambition, so don't force it! From the perspective of my great prosperity, Jiangnan is too small after all. Everyone says that Jiangnan has talent, but in fact, it is more people in Jiangnan who put gold on their faces.

Jiangnan is too rich, and a talented man comes out of a poor family. Zheng'er, your qualifications are already considered a first-class existence in Jiangnan. However, a mountain is higher than a mountain, and a strong one is more powerful than a strong one. After entering Beijing in the future, you should carefully consider how you should go..." Lu Shan said earnestly.

If ordinary people find these words, it is difficult for ordinary people to understand, but Lu Zheng was a human being in his two lives and had rich experience in life, he naturally could understand a lot.

Lu Zheng always knew that the "talent" he was doing was nothing, and he could not last long. Da Kang Dynasty had a population of hundreds of millions, and there were countless talents and heroes. Lu Zheng never dared to put himself in front.

Lu Zheng was famous and studied for fame, for the imperial examination, to win a platform for himself, that's all. He was very clear about this.

In fact, since Lu Zheng mastered many resources in Jiangnan, he even had less urgent pursuit of Jie Yuan. Because throughout history, there have been countless experts in the imperial examination, but those who have achieved great things and achievement are not necessarily supermans of the imperial examination.

Just like in modern society, people with high education must be social elites, but the top elites are not all from the top scorers in the college entrance examination.

As soon as he thought of this, Lu Zheng suddenly felt relaxed in his heart. When the King of Qin came to Jiangnan, Lu Zheng suddenly felt that his relationship with him was actually very small. There were six yamen in Jinling, the Governor's Office, the Censorate of the Five Army, the Imperial College, and the Governor, and the Governor of the Second Rank alone had more than ten fingers.

What is Lu Zheng in Jiangnan? He is just a trivial character. Even if he has a lot of strength in his hands, these strengths are all hidden and are not known to outsiders.

The King of Qin is coming, representing the royal family and the emperor. These senior executives and nobles, and the powerful families should be much more nervous by Lu Zheng. Is Lu Zheng causing trouble for this?

Lu Zheng's thoughts suddenly became clear and said, "Grandfather, the King of Qin may want to uncover the cover of the Jiangnan scientific research. I want to release this news.

After all, we were born in Jiangnan and grew up in Jiangnan. At critical moments, we should still think about Jiangnan."

Lu Shanchang stared at Lu Zheng with his eyes narrowed and nodded, "You can do these things. By the way, remember to stay at home for a few more days. After the provincial examination, there will definitely be many talented men coming to visit. If you are not in Jiangning, the Lu family's lintel will not look good.

I personally arranged your house in Jiangning, and you can do it cheaply on weekdays. Hong Quan is gone, and the lack of the housekeeper in the family is always empty. Please consider it and choose a person for a housekeeper, right?"

"Grandfather, this..." Lu Zheng was very surprised. He decided to choose the Lu family's butler. What would Lu Qian, a cheap father, think?

In addition to Lu Qian, there are third uncle Lu Chen and fourth uncle Lu Cheng. Can they convince? Is the old man trying to drive the ducks and put them on the shelves and let him dominate the Lu family's affairs?

Lu Zheng shook his head secretly, suddenly realized it in his heart, and said, "Don't worry, grandfather, I will report to my father about this matter, and he will definitely give some advice!"

...

The news of the King of Qin going to Jiangnan gradually spread across Jinling, and Jinling immediately caused a sensation.

There is a rumor that Dai Yong, the right censor of the Southern Censorate, sent a memorial to the court. The memorial was reported to the various chaos in the autumn examination in Jiangnan. This memorial was transferred to the King of Qin. The King of Qin was going to Jiangnan to vigorously investigate the fraud in the autumn examination in Jiangnan!

Just now the scientific examination was over, and the paper was sealed with names. Before there was enough time to review it, such news came out, and Jiangnan became nervous in an instant.

Especially for students participating in the scientific examination this time, opportunities are hard-won. If all the scientific examination results are invalidated due to the so-called scientific examination fraud case, it will be a huge loss for all candidates.

The so-called "one stone stirs up a thousand layers of waves, and Jiangnan became restless overnight. After the Qin King's yellow ship entered Jiangnan, he landed on the dock of the Liuhe River Valley.

On this day, all civil and military officials from Jiangnan gathered together to meet His Highness the King of Qin at the river valley wharf. Lu Shanchang was also among the crowd. In addition to Lu Shanchang, Ruan Jingnian, Gu Tianyang and others were there.

The chief examiner of the Imperial College, Guo Song, and the deputy chief examiner of the Hanlin Academy, stood together, and Zhan Tianqi, the governor of Zhili and the commander-in-chief of the Southern Prefecture Army, stood in the front position.

Unlike other provinces in Jiangnan, it is the location of the Southern Dynasty court, with many officials and amazing pomp. After the Qin King's yellow ship docked, he got off the boat in a formal suit. All the officials who had been waiting for a long time knelt down and said:

"I'm going to see the King of Qin Qiansheng!"

The King of Qin was burly and looked down at everyone. He raised his hand gently and said, "Get up, I have already passed the message, telling you not to make a show, you will refuse to listen! Hey, look at the current scene. If this is spread to the capital, I don't know how many rumors will be caused!"

All the officials stood up slowly, all bowed their heads and said nothing. At this time, the atmosphere was subtle and no one wanted to jump out first.

All forces in Jiangnan gathered, but the King of Qin had no power on this side, so although there were many people present, there were almost no one caring to the King of Qin.

Surrounded by everyone, the King of Qin came down from the yellow boat, and a group of officials came over to gather him in the middle. Gu Tianyang was among the officials who could stand by the King of Qin at this time, who needed a second or above level.

Guo Song, the Imperial College Priest, came over and said, "Your Highness, I heard that someone had submitted a memorial to the court, saying that the so-called fraud in the Jiangnan scientific examination became popular. I am Guo Song, the chief examiner of the Jiangnan provincial examination. Today, I specially called the deputy chief examiner Pang Di and other officials at all levels responsible for the provincial examination. I begged the prince to investigate clearly!"

Guo Song paused and said, "The countryside examination has just ended. After the candidate's test paper was saved, the officials have never dared to open it. The prince has come in person and begs him to take charge of the overall situation."

Guo Song suddenly said this, which caused an uproar. Everyone knew Guo Song's temperament and could not rub the sand in his eyes. Unexpectedly, his temperament was so straightforward. The King of Qin had just got off the boat and had not been washed away. Guo Song actually put the matter on the table. Is this going to make the prince unable to get off the table?

The King of Qin smiled slightly. He was burly and noble in character. Faced with Guo Song's sudden move, he calmly said:

"Thank you for your hard work, someone has submitted an amendment for the scientific research in Jiangnan. What's wrong? If you turn a memorial into my hand, will it be difficult for me to have a place to stand when I arrive in Jiangnan?
