Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1799 Family Choice!

"Brother Lu, judging from the situation yesterday, this Wang family really has a very shallow relationship with Yonganhou~!"

In an inn in Qizhou and Yongxian County, Li Jingxuan who woke up from a hangover and Lu Chengqing met for tea in a private room. The tea is a good fairy tea. Naturally, there is no such kind of tea in a small place like Qizhou. It is Li Jingxuan. He brought it himself when he came to Qizhou. He used to like money, power, and beauty. Since the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce launched Shenxian tea, he has one more preference, which is Xi Shenxian tea!

The fragrance of tea lingered, and Li Jingxuan spoke after the two were silent for a while.

"Why is this? Brother Li, don’t forget, Wang Yu was still a messenger, and he had little relationship with the royal family. Now he has close contacts with Li Zexuan, and Li Zexuan is the pioneer in the emperor’s suppression of the family. Now, in the royal family, is the heart with the emperor or with the family?"

Lu Chengqing fiddled with the tea cup with one hand, and shook the folding fan with the other. He just listened to him indifferently.

Li Jingxuan's eyes sank slightly, and said: "A Li Zexuan is already so difficult to deal with. If the Wang family and Li Zexuan are in the same way again, wouldn't our five surnames and seven hopes have no chance to restore their former glory~?"

Lu Chengqing raised his head and said indifferently: "Jing Xuan, now the world has changed, instead of five surnames and seven hopes, only three surnames and four surnames are left, including a royal family of Li and Tang, and an ambiguous king of Taiyuan. In terms of strength, we are already in a weak position. In the past, the Cui family was the head of the seven great families, but now, with the support of the emperor and the help of Li Zexuan, the Wang family may leapfrog the Lu family and Li family!"

Li Jingxuan picked up the tea cup and drank the tea in the cup. He frowned and said very annoyed: "The imperial power is strong, and the family is uneven. According to Brother Lu, we, Li and Lu, will be in the future. How should I deal with myself~?"

"How to deal with yourself? How to deal with yourself depends on the attitude of the elders in our family. You and I can't be the masters now!"

Lu Chengqing gave a wry smile and shook his head helplessly.

He and Li Jingxuan are now only the descendants of the Lu and Li family who are most likely to become the next generations of Patriarchs. They are still far from being officially in power. Their current situation is actually similar to Wang Renbiao, except that Wang Renbiao relies on Tongan Princess and Li. The relationship between the two's nephew and nephew has secured the position of the governor of a state, and the two of them have not yet entered the official position!

"Oh! What Brother Lu said is quite true!"

Hearing this, Li Jingxuan couldn't help but his face darkened. He heavily put down the tea cup in his hand, got up and looked out the window, and said with a worried expression: "Now our two families can be said to be enemies, but you and I have no real power in the clan. What if Sora has revenge? I can only hope that the elders in the clan can lead the family through the difficulties!"

"Difficult! Difficult!"

Lu Chengqing condensed his eyebrows for a moment, shook his head and said: "If it were left a year ago, there would still be three points of hope for the six major families to fight against the imperial power. But now, even the most powerful and profoundest Cui and Zheng two clan have been impoverished Destroyed, even if the two of us Lu and Li put our best efforts, I'm afraid it will be difficult to break out any waves!

For the current plan, I can only ask for self-protection! Since the First World War, the Lu Family’s Taigong has been strictly restraining the children of the clan to prevent us from being arrogant, oppressing the people, and violating the laws of the king. This is because we are worried that we will follow in the footsteps of the Cui family! "

Li Jingxuan nodded and said: "My family too! Previously my second uncle's eldest son occupied a tenant's daughter. The grandpa learned that he directly ordered the penalty hall to break his legs and sent him to the county office! After this incident, the family Those stray children in the past are now all in danger, and they dare not do it arbitrarily outside!"

"It's right to do this!"

Lu Chengqing thoughtfully said: "How did the Cui family's house in Chang'an City be besieged by the people? Isn't it that Li Zexuan made the Cui family's dirty work in recent years public? If you don't want to repeat the mistakes of the Cui family, you can only restrain the children of the clan!

After the Battle of Guancheng, the people of the world, and the civil and military officials, saw that the five surnames and seven hopes were not invincible. Now the princes in the court are all staring at the family! Once there are children from a family who do evil, they will definitely be impeached as soon as possible. First, they can be appreciated by the emperor, and second, they can be praised by the people! Therefore, Tai Gong is correct to make such a decision! "

"Huh! These ungrateful villains! How many people in those royal historians have not received the favor of the family? Now that the imperial power is prosperous, they are just like that, and their faces are very ugly!"

Li Jingxuan couldn't help but snorted, angrily.

What he said is right. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the old system of Yang Guang was used to open imperial examinations and recruit talents. But in this era, scholars want to participate in imperial examinations, but they need to be recommended by gentry or celebrities. Each family has a large number of disciples. Why are those scholars willing to be the disciples of the family? Isn't it because the family has the right to recommend and the way to recommend?

Today, there are hundreds of civil and military officials in the Tang court, but a considerable number of them have been recommended by aristocratic families!

"Going forward, how can there be eternal friends? Only eternal interests!"

Lu Chengqing shook his head and said sensibly: "To put it a bit awkward, if you and I are in a different place with them, I'm afraid they will do more and more unfeeling than them!"

Li Jingxuan was choked immediately, he said with a depressed look: "Brother Lu, you still speak...still so upright~!"

Depressed and depressed, but Li Jingxuan also knows that Lu Chengqing is telling the truth, but the truth is a bit too hurt!

"Haha! I'm just telling the truth!"

Lu Chengqing smiled. He picked up the tea cup and sniffed it lightly. He couldn't help but exclaimed: "Good tea! Good tea! Aside from the standpoint, Yongan Hou is really a person who knows how to live! You can enjoy the splendor, but to be honest, you are not as good as Yongan Hou Wanyi!"

When Li Jingxuan saw that Lu Chengqing had started tasting tea, he quickly poured himself another cup, but he finally got these tea leaves, so he couldn't bear to drink it!

"Chengqing, what you said is true! Who in the family doesn't hate Yonganhou? But everyone still uses the things made by Yonganhou, new-style carriages, bicycles, toilet paper, fairy tea, and fairy mirrors. Unconsciously, he earned all our money!"

After drinking another cup of tea, Li Jingxuan said a little annoyed.

"So what? The Qiquge and Qiquge Workshop are irreplaceable in Datang. If we want to earn this money, we can only choose to cooperate with him!"

Lu Chengqing squinted his eyes and said endlessly.

Li Jingxuan's eyes widened, with an incredible expression on his face: "What? Cooperation? Chengqing are you crazy? If these words are heard by the Lu family elders, they must be reprimanded again!"

The pride of the aristocratic family, even though the aristocratic family is already at a disadvantage in the face of imperial power, they are still arrogant in their bones. Cooperation with Li Zexuan is equivalent to cooperating with the court and bowing to the court!

Lu Chengqing said: "The situation is stronger than that of people. Nowadays, no matter whether the elders admit it or not, it is difficult for aristocratic families to contend with the imperial power. For the present, we should protect ourselves as the mainstay. Only by living, will there be unlimited possibilities. Just like Cui and Zheng, everything is dead! The Wang family can climb to Yonganhou, why can't we? At least so far, besides cooperating with Yonganhou, do you have a better way to deal with him? Those who have given him The people who stumbled have grass growing on their graves!"

Li Jingxuan swallowed. The content of Lu Chengqing’s remarks was too explosive and crazy, but he thought about it and found Lu Chengqing’s remarks to be reasonable. He couldn’t help but straighten up and stared at Lu Chengqing. , Is this what you meant, or did you mean it?"

This question is very critical, because it concerns the Lu family today, should it be like the Wang family, to go to the court!

If this is really what the head of the Lu family meant, then the only ones who still stick to the "family camp" are Zhao Jun Li!

Lu Chengqing pondered for a moment, and said: "This is what my father meant, but it is not what the Lu family old people mean! Before coming, my father told me that I should refrain from having trouble with the Wang family. It is best to pass through the Wang family to catch up. The relationship between Yonganhou! What the Wang family can do for Yonganhou, the same can be done by the Lu family!"

"It turned out to be what Lu Shibo meant!"

Li Jingxuan was immediately stunned.

Lu Chengqing stood up and said, "I am leaving for Chang'an today. Should Jing Xuan go with me?"

At this time, Li Jingxuan finally recovered from the shock. He wondered: "Go to Chang'an? Brother Lu, what are you doing in Chang'an?"

Lu Chengqing stood with his hands and said quietly, "Tomorrow afternoon, there will be a fundraising meeting held by the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce in Lantian County. I really want to go and see it. Just drop in!"

"Fundraising meeting? Lu Jiaran will also attend the fundraising meeting?"

Li Jingxuan's face is even more incredible. It is natural for a family to have money, but it is absolutely impossible for them to give money to the court! For whom the fundraising conference is collecting donations, this person, as long as the news is not blocked, knows in his heart, and listening to Lu Chengqing's meaning, Lu Jia is going to participate in the fundraising conference. How does this make him not surprised?

"The fundraiser Lu family really intends to participate. My father had already passed on to a store manager in Chang'an the day before. And if I can catch up with ~www.readwn.com~ tomorrow, I will naturally go to see this fundraising event! , From Yonganhou's handwriting, if the Lu family can contribute a bit, not only Yonganhou will remember us well, but also your majesty! Jingxuan, would you like to go with me?"

Lu Chengqing asked with a light smile.

Hearing this, Li Jingxuan's face was cloudy and uncertain. After thinking for a while, he handed over and said: "I am so big, my little brother is afraid to be expert, I have to ask my father!"

Lu Chengqing shook his head and said, "But the fundraising meeting will begin tomorrow. Qizhou is not close to Zhao County. I am afraid it is too late!"

"This……"

Li Jingxuan also knew what Lu Chengqing was talking about. He hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said: "Okay! Then I will go with Brother Lu to Chang'an first, and fly the pigeons on the road to the home. If it is too late, there is no way! "

Lu Chengqing laughed and said, "Hehe, that's good! Let's clean up and set off!"
