Chapter 130 This Terrible Connection
Shen Ning knew that Lu Qing would die, so she asked Yu Liuer to take people to follow him all the way back to his hometown, watch him in secret, rescue Lu Qing before anything happened, and catch the person who did it and send him to Lu Qing.
She did not do good deeds anonymously, but let the Imperial Censor Lu Qing know that it was she, Shen Ning, who saved him, and he had to accept her favor.
Having been immersed in officialdom for many years, Lord Lu naturally had amazing insight. He could see that Shen Ning had other intentions, and when they met again, he was even more certain that she was not some simple and naive girl.
The eyes are the windows to the soul, and all her calculations and plots are hidden in her eyes. However, compared to those conspiracies and plots, she is very open and has no ill intentions.
That's why he asked her what she wanted.
Although they were officials in the same dynasty, he and Shen Shuyuan were just nodding acquaintances. There was no point in his daughter going to great lengths to save him.
The main reason why he wanted to meet Shen Ning was that he knew some inside information about Shen Shuyuan's death. He would repay the favor, but he couldn't let anyone use him for this.
It was understandable that Shen Ning could see his defensiveness.
As the saying goes, showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.
It is right for the Censor to act with caution.
"Uncle, don't be nervous. The main reason why I intervened in this matter is not because of you, but because of the Wei family..."
Shen Ning recounted the story between himself and the Wei family in detail, adding certain details that Lu Qing could not possibly know.
"The first reason I took action was because I didn't want Wei Changgeng's plan to succeed. The second reason was that my father always mentioned my uncle when he was alive. He said that you were a rare and honest official in the court. You spoke frankly and made strong suggestions, and you were proud and unyielding. It was only because of people like you that the court was able to maintain an upright style and a noble spirit. Such a rare and honest official should not be defeated by these conspiracies and intrigues."
She sighed slightly, "I didn't mean to do anything to you, uncle, but if you are willing to give me some face, please don't let the father and son of the Wei family stand in the court in the future. Also, please don't mention me about this matter. I will be grateful."
Keeping a good official and cutting off the Wei family's future, this is Shen Ning's purpose.
As for holding a favor in exchange for something in return? That method is too low-level.
Lu Qing could tell whether Shen Ning was telling the truth or a lie. He always had some doubts about people, but he believed Shen Ning's words 80%.
His eyes suddenly became somewhat complicated, as if he didn't expect that he could escape a disaster just because a little girl couldn't stand other people's complacency.
Shen Ning may not know that besides Wei Changgeng, there are so many people who want him to die in his hometown and never come back, but he acted rashly like a fool, not afraid of bringing trouble to himself.
Now I realize that it is a little too late to ask him not to mention it to avoid suspicion.
"I agree to your request." Lu Qing thought for a moment and added, "I remember your father loved the five-grain wine from Rongzhou when he was alive. I have a few jars of it that have been stored for more than ten years. Go find your aunt and dig out two jars to send to your father."
Does this mean that she wants to interact with the Lu family?
Shen Ning was surprised for a moment, then smiled faintly: "Thank you, uncle. Although my father's alcohol tolerance is average, this is the best. He will definitely like it."
Lu Qing sighed again, waved to Shen Ning, and got on the carriage: "This place is remote, don't stay too long, go back quickly."
Shen Ning: "Okay, let's go now."
When the vehicle turned, Lu Qing could still see Shen Ning standing there, stamping her feet in the cold. She looked dignified and intelligent, but in fact she was also a little girl.
Although Shen Shuyuan didn't have much friendship with him, they didn't have any hatred against him. After the couple died, it was not easy for the family to be supported by such a little girl.
It had nothing to do with him before, so he naturally wouldn't take the initiative to take responsibility. But this time someone saved him, he couldn't just pretend that nothing happened.
As an imperial censor, it was still possible for him to protect a little girl.
Liuying adjusted Shen Ning's hood, wishing she could wrap her up like a dumpling. The snow was not heavy, but the wind was really cold. She had just been in the rain for a while, so she hoped she wouldn't catch a fever when she went back.
"Miss, please go back to the car and warm up. You have been exposed to a lot of snow and wind today."
Shen Ning followed her back obediently. Liuying and Yuzhu applied hot compresses and rubbed their hands, fearing that she would catch a disease.
Shen Ning was feeling a little cold at first, but after a while he was sweating from being rubbed by them.
"It's okay. I'm much better."
Not to mention, Shen Ning was quite familiar with this feeling of weakness. After Liuying died in her previous life, she was almost like this sickly and finally died in the snow.
Liuying was safe in this life, but her body became weaker earlier than in her previous life.
Shen Shu's life was affected, but now it has strangely returned to its original track. Although Liang Zhuo no longer seems to be devoted to Shen Shu, Wei Congwen has obtained the memories of his previous life, and it is unknown whether he will "renew his relationship" with Shen Shu again.
Shen Ming and Shen Changlin are dead, Fang Shiyan and her son are alive, and the Censor is also alive, proving that fate can be changed.
Shen Ning felt the tension between the two sides, but there was no answer until the last moment.
She refused to accept her fate and wanted to live a healthy life. But if her fate was really irreversible, there was only one thing she didn't want to die in winter because it was too cold.
"Miss, who was that gentleman just now?"
Seeing that Shen Ning was warm, Yuzhu asked out of curiosity.
Shen Ning: "Master Lu, the Imperial Censor."
"So he deliberately waited for the young lady here? When did he meet the young lady?"
Yuzhu's eyes were filled with the question: How come I don't know anything about this?
Shen Ning patted her head: "Don't ask so many questions, just know that he is a good person."
Turning to look at Liuying, "Please prepare an extra gift for this year's New Year. I will personally deliver it to the Lu family when the time comes."
Liuying immediately understood that the young lady was connected with the Lu family.
Miss Du's husband is the son of Minister Ye, Mr. Li is the young master of the Li family, Princess Changle is the daughter of Prince Qi and the daughter-in-law of the Luo family, and now there is another family, the Lu family. This is just on the surface. The eldest lady asks her to prepare at least thirty gifts every year, and the status of the owner of each place they are sent to is not low.
The most important thing is that at least 30% of these people are people that the young lady can call upon if she wants something, and as for the others, she believes that the young lady is not really wasting her money, and when the young lady needs to use these connections, she will definitely find a way to make them do what she wants.
Liuying hated this terrible connection. Why wasn't the young lady a man? If the young lady were a man, she would surely be able to rise to the top and become an official more powerful than the master.
"Ok."
I heard that Wei Congwen has been looking for connections everywhere recently, hoping to be recommended as an official in the court, but he has been rejected everywhere.
He probably couldn't have imagined what he had given up in his dreams. But it was also good this way, because the young lady was not worthy of a scumbag like him.
