Chapter 678 Turning hands into clouds!

Su Qing’s search for office is an episode, but for Lu Zheng recently, this is also a worry that cannot be ignored! The so-called high position is often involuntary!

For example, when Su Qing asked for an official position, Lu Zheng's way of thinking about problems cannot only focus on personal emotions. He must first consider the overall situation and the balance of various forces in the court. After he repeatedly pondered and considered, he could find the missing places and see if these places were suitable for Su Qing.

After all this is done, there is another important point, that is, Lu Zheng needs to coordinate and communicate through leading figures from the Lu family and the Su family, which is indispensable.

Because for a family, the family's resources are limited, and only a few people can be cultivated by spending all the family resources. Who can do the job and who can occupy many family resources, and the top figures within the family are determined. Like Su Qing, who is not the backbone of the second generation in the family, so the Su family may not agree to Lu Zheng giving Su Qing the most appropriate position. This may be the most difficult hurdle for Su Qing.

Lu Zheng felt the helplessness of this aristocratic society, and at the same time he was full of gratitude for his life, because when Lu Zheng went from Yangzhou to Jinling and then to the capital, the Lu family had completely declined. Otherwise, if the Lu family was as powerful as the Su family, Lu Zheng might not be able to cross the family's pass at all!

Therefore, Su Qing was destined to come with excitement and return with Lanshan. Lu Zheng did not want him to lose hope completely, but just kept him in Jinling and continued to wait, and he could finally wait for the opportunity to be out of sight.

Cases like Su Qing seeking officials are just small matters, and for Lu Zheng, the big thing that needs to be faced is the pressure from Emperor Xinde.

Lu Zheng did not give in to the matter about the Southern Prefecture Army, because he could never give in. However, Lu Zheng, the personality of Emperor Xinde, knew too much, because he would inevitably have a grudge in his heart about this matter, and Emperor Xinde should soon make a move. It was inevitable that the Jiangnan power sect would bear pressure, and Lu Zheng was the one who was most likely to bear pressure.

Lu Zheng has carefully sorted out the situation in Jinling in Jiangnan. He can probably see that the Duan family is now close to Emperor Xinde, and he wants to become a force on his own. In addition to the Duan family, the attitude of the Jin family is a bit ambiguous. Jin Wannian is obviously hesitant and it is difficult to decide many things.

In addition to these two families, others like the Cao family, the Zhao family and even the Zuo family have deep interests and the Lu family. It is difficult for them to get rid of Lu Zheng's influence. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that although Lu Zheng is only the Minister of Personnel now, the problem in his mind is comparable to that of the prime minister.

Against this background, Emperor Xinde suddenly proposed to let Lu Shanchang enter the cabinet. Obviously, this is also popular with the Lu family. At least after Lu Shanchang enters the cabinet, these coordination matters and these matters that concern the family's interests will no longer need Lu Zheng to come forward.

But can Lu Zheng really hide behind Lu Shanchang and be free and easy? The answer is obviously impossible. Emperor Xinde is very likely to have other arrangements for Lu Zheng, which makes Lu Zheng appear one after another.

Lu Zheng thought about his adventures, especially when he went to Beidi Beiyan. That time he had been on a mission for almost a lifetime. Now he was scared. Later, he had various dangers one after another, and Lu Zheng came step by step. Now what big move is being brewed in Emperor Xinde’s mind?

Lu Zheng really wanted to meet Xu Tiandao. He wanted to ask Emperor Xinde how he was doing recently? Does this guy have to attack Lu Zheng again if he had a whim?

"Zheng'er, Jiangnan depends on the Lu family now, and the Lu family depends on you! It's no exaggeration to say that the whole Dakang is watching you now, and you are at the forefront of the storm. I have to say that such a situation is very difficult. If there is a slight mistake, you may be doomed. Have you thought about how to deal with the current situation?" Lu Shanchang said, with a serious expression and a worried look on his face.

Lu Zheng said: "Dakang is no longer as good as before. The situation in Dakang is divided. Even if His Majesty is determined to unify, he does not have enough strength. Under such circumstances, he is uneasy in Jiangnan and can understand that he is worried all day long.

In the current situation, I should not stay in Jiangnan for too long. It is said that it will die inside and live outside. If the Nanfu Army can fight, I will lead the Nanfu Army to fight north, which may be an opportunity! Apart from that, I really couldn't think of any better opportunity!"

Lu Shanchang's face was gloomy and said, "My Lu family has worked for the royal family for more than a hundred years, but still has not received much favor until now! It is a chaotic world, and the world may be even more chaotic, and by that time..."

Lu Zheng's expression moved slightly and said, "Grandfather, you reminded me of this! Now that the major families are really using people to use troops, the reason for their deaths inside is probably not just the Lu family understands that since this is the case, it is probably not their wish to stay in Jiangnan!

Now the two rivers are in trouble, and the imperial court has not sent an imperial envoy to appease him. I will write to His Majesty tomorrow and plan to send Cao Weiming as the pacifier to appease the two rivers!"

Lu Zheng paused and said, "It just so happened that Su Zhi came back from the two rivers, and the two of them came and went, intertwined each other, just so that the two rivers would not fall into the enemy."

Lu Shanchang smiled and said, "No, Zheng'er, your mind is still spinning fast! Your hand is so wonderful that it's so wonderful!"

Lu Zheng also said: "Now the Jiangnan crisis is in the south. There is Huainan Road east of Jiangnan and Lingnan Road south. There are also Lingnan Road. These two roads also have prefecture soldiers. Just so I can ask Shangshu Jin to summon Huainan in the name of the Ministry of War. The prefecture soldiers from Lingnan come to Jiangnan to protect the emperor. What does this memorial grandfather think?"

Lu Shanchang said: "Okay, very good! Zheng'er can think of these two folds, which is enough to show that you are extraordinary. These two folds should be guaranteed to be safe for the time being. Hey, I really have some hope to enter the cabinet!"

After the exchange between Lu Shanchang and Lu Zheng was completed, the palace passed the order. Lu Shanchang of the Lu family entered the cabinet and became the assistant minister of the cabinet and the Grand Secretary of the Wuying Palace.

In addition, Gu Tiansheng from the Gu family also entered the cabinet and became the Grand Secretary of Wenhua Hall. The leading figures of the two major families in Jiangnan all became like the cabinet and became prime ministers. When the news spread, Jinling shook.

There were two more prime ministers in the cabinet, and the scale of the cabinet suddenly expanded. On the day when Lu Shanchang and Gu Tiansheng entered the cabinet, Lu Zheng, Minister of Personnel, submitted a memorial to the court and send imperial envoys and appeasers to the two rivers. Lu Zheng suggested that Minister of Revenue Cao Weiming, Minister of Revenue, inspect the two rivers as the imperial envoys and appease the victims of the two rivers!

After receiving this memorial, the cabinet immediately voted to agree. The memorial was sent to the palace. Emperor Xinde was in seclusion and practiced again. The memorial was approved by Eunuch Feng. Cao Weiming was immediately named the imperial envoy and planned a trip to the two rivers.

Then, Lu Zheng submitted another memorial, hoping to ask the court to order Huainan Road and Lingnan Road to send 30,000 troops to the south of the Yangtze River to fully enter the south of the Yangtze River to protect the Jiangnan court.

After Lu Zheng's memorial was put up, he had to be approved by the Hong Kong people. Two imperial edicts rushed to Huainan Road and Lingnan Road. The two imperial edicts arrived at the site, and there was no feedback from Huainan Road and Lingnan Road. The people of Jinling were in a state of trouble...

In the Lu Mansion, Cao Weiming respectfully saluted Lu Zheng and said, "Mr. Lu, this time Cao has the opportunity to tour the north. This is all the opportunity given to Lord Lu! Cao has no choice but to live up to Lord Lu's hope for Cao!"

Lu Zheng said lightly: "Mr. Cao is serious. What does Lu expect from me? You and I are ministers in the same palace. We have killed the enemy together and lived and died together. Yu Dakang, the people of the two rivers, made great sacrifices. This time, we suffered another disaster. If you, Lord Cao, don't appease me, who will appease me?

If the people of the two rivers are stable, the capital will be stable and the south of the Yangtze River will be stable! Therefore, this time, the adults have a long task, so I will do it myself!"

Cao Weiming lowered his voice and said, "My land in the two rivers is thousands of miles in fertile land. Such a large area cannot be without guards. This time General Su went south, and there were indeed tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the two rivers without a leader. As an imperial envoy, Cao has the responsibility to manage these soldiers and horses well and must not let military power be lost!"

Lu Zheng said: "Mr. Cao is quick and easy. Since this is the case, I hope that the adults can do what they say, but I also want to remember that no matter when, the adults should always remember that they are the ministers of Dakang, and sacrifice their lives for Dakang and shed their blood. Never make mistakes and make eternal regrets because of temporary small profits!"

Cao Weiming laughed and said, "Please rest assured that Lord Lu, Cao is a good match. However, the capital and capital cannot represent the emperor. The emperor of Dakang is in the south of the Yangtze River. I, the two rivers, obey the emperor's orders, and others, cannot determine the fate of the two rivers!"

After Cao Weiming finished speaking, he immediately saluted and said, "Okay, Cao and Lord Lu will say this today! The journey to the north is long. Cao is responsible for the emperor's order and dare not neglect it. He wishes to go straight to his destination day and night. I won't say much today, Cao said goodbye!"

Cao Weiming left the Lu Mansion and left the city gate. Outside the city, Lu Zheng had prepared two hundred guards for him. These guards were all riding horses. Cao Weiming also abandoned his sedan chair and rode his horse day and night to head north. He knew very well that he would have more chances to get military power if he arrived in the two rivers a day earlier. Otherwise, when Long Zhaohuan in the capital took action, his daylily would be cold!

On the third day of Cao Weiming's capital, Su Zhi got off the canal ship in vain and got off the boat. He did not touch the ground, did not go to the palace to pay his respects, nor did he go to the new house that the Su family had just purchased in Jiangnan, but went straight to Lu's mansion to see Lu Zheng.

This time he was able to return from the Two Rivers, thanks to Lu Zheng, and Lu Zheng handed over the Southern Mansion Army to him, which was also a great trust in him! After experiencing the fighting and fighting experience of the Two Rivers, Su Zhi had a very deep understanding of the role of military power. He knew in his heart that the Southern Mansion Army was built by Lu Zheng to work hard, and Lu Zheng handed over the Southern Mansion Army to Su Zhi, which was a high trust in him.

Whether Su Zhi can do this job well, whether the Southern Army has strong combat power, and whether the army is loyal to Lu Zheng is a challenge and a huge opportunity for him.

When they arrived at the Lu Mansion, the boy came out to greet him. When the two met, the boy said, "When General Su came back, our young master immediately sent General Cao to Lianghe. There is no need to worry about the tens of thousands of soldiers left by General Su!"

Su Zhi was stunned for a moment, then clapped her hands and said, "That's great! Only Cao Weiming can control the situation. Lord Lu is still very good, and I admire him very much!"

"General Su has been awarded the award. I always think of a ideology. Fortunately, the court can pass it. Otherwise, the situation in the two rivers might be even more chaotic!" Lu Zheng walked out of it with a smile.

Su Zhi hurriedly knelt on one knee and shouted: "I have met Lord Lu!"

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "General Su is polite. Do you still use such politeness? This time you can come back and let our Nanfu Army have a great governor, which can be said to have solved our huge problem!

I know you are coming to my place. I have asked the chef to prepare a banquet. The chef in the capital will suit your appetite. After eating and drinking, I will take you to Liuhe. Now the airs of the military camp over there have been set up, and you, the head coach, will take office!"

Su Zhi was stunned for a moment and said, "That's great! I'm worried that I don't know how to start the job!" Su Zhi said this, but he was very shocked. According to Lu Zheng's arrangement, Su Zhi didn't even have to go to the Ministry of War to report. What does this mean?

This shows that the Nanfu Army was not an army of the court, but an army built by Lu Zheng. The other generals of this army were selected by Lu Zheng himself, and most of them were even in place. As long as Su Zhi was in place, the Nanfu Army's sign could be established.

Su Zhi went to Liuhe first, then to the Ministry of War, and then met the saint. This process was slightly reversed and the nature was completely different. Su Zhi had to admire Lu Zheng's methods for being really superb. The future Jiangnan court would probably be destined to return to the Jiangnan Lu family.

Su Zhi and Lu Zheng were drinking, and the boy accompanied him. After three rounds of drinking, Su Zhi said, "Brother has gone to Jiangnan this time. Oh, I know about him, and my grandfather knows it too! The boy doesn't know the taste of sorrow. Now he is in his forties, but he wants to be motivated. Lord Lu, what are you thinking about?"

Lu Zheng said: "It is hard to explain clearly at this time. If Master Su wants to do a job in Jinling, it is an opportunity now. However, Jinling is full of talents, and the competition facing Master Su may be fierce!"

Su Zhi said: "Uncle Xinghai still hopes that Master Su can join the six divisions. At this time, Uncle Xinghai is out of reach in the capital. In the end, you may have to get rid of Lord Lu!"

Lu Zheng was slightly stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud and said, "Master Su is really working. Since Su Xiang has given instructions, how can I not do my best? It just so happened that the Ministry of Revenue is vacant, so I recommend Master Su. If Master Su can enter the Ministry of Revenue, it will be a great thing for the Su family and a great joy!"
