[Red Chamber] I am Lin Daiyu and her uncle

Lu Yaobi was shocked, and hurriedly took the certificate to have a look.

It turned out that there was a rich man named Wang Shun in Nanjing. He was a rich man and had close contacts with officials of all sizes in Nanjing.But for the sake of the rich and unkind, he did many evils, delusional to prolong his life, listened to the alchemist's slander, and ate the baby's flesh and blood for a long time to mend his body.

As a result, he married more than ten concubines, made her pregnant successively, and then forced an abortion at full term.The beaten fetus, the skin and meat are crushed into the meat filling of dumplings to eat.After the bones are soaked in a special method, they are ground into powder and drunk as tea.In addition, he was not satisfied, secretly bought newborn babies, killed them cruelly, ground them into powder, and made them into pills.

His evil deeds are simply heinous! !

It was the first time Lu Yaobi had heard of such a sensational case, so he asked him why he didn't report it to the local government when the matter was so bad.

But the man said that almost all the princes and nobles in Nanjing took the raw materials that Wang Shunxiao gave them to make longevity, such as baby skin, bones, etc., and because of this, he was protected by the princes and nobles of the court, so that no officials in Nanjing dared to accept the case. .

Just to mention, when this case happened, it was during the reign of Emperor Xizong, the people were mourning, the people were in dire straits, the court was full of smog, and hypocrites were rampant!The entire imperial court is mostly sycophants, and very few of them actually do practical things.

So you can understand why Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice valued Lu Yaobi so much, right?In the dark political environment at that time, officials like Lu Yaobi who were just, strict, self-denying, and diligent in governing the country were really rare species, and they were the kind that would become extinct at any time.

After realizing the seriousness of the matter, Lu Yaobi finally took over the case.Even though he knew that he might face many obstacles, even being squeezed out by his colleagues and losing his official position, Lu Yaobi would not hesitate!

Because he has not forgotten his original intention to enter the officialdom - to establish a heart for the world, to establish a life for the people, to inherit the past sages, and to bring peace to all generations!

The follow-up of the matter was indeed that countless dignitaries and colleagues interceded for Wang Shun, but Lu Yaobi was unmoved at all, withstood all pressure, and resolutely put Wang Shunling to death.

A total of 350 seven knives, the knives are paid for the lives of those babies who died in vain!

Because the interests of too many people were mobilized, Lu Yaobi was excluded and returned to his hometown after less than three years as the Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

At that time, Lu Yaobi was already sixty-three years old, and he lived a long life in that era. If there were no accidents, Lu Yaobi would be like this in his life. The days of being a grandson finally came to an end.

But how do you say something?

There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and there is another village with dark willows and bright flowers!

Good people are rewarded after all.

Two years later, Emperor Xizong died suddenly, and Empress Dowager Wenhuan came to the court to proclaim the system and began to rectify the administration of officials.A capable and upright official like Lu Yaobi was naturally recalled, and he even went up to a higher level to become a Beijing official!He first served as the censor of the fourth rank of Qindu, and because of his outstanding achievements, he was promoted to the censor of the right capital of the second rank three years later.Finally, relying on the prestige of handling the Wang Shun case in Nanjing, he was strongly recommended to join the cabinet.

At the age of 68, Lv Yaobi ushered in the first highlight of his official career-Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment and Bachelor of Huagaidian University, and joined the cabinet as his second assistant.

At that time, Gongsun Liang, who was already the first assistant, was only 22 years old, and he was 46 years younger than Lu Yaobi, the second assistant at that time. In terms of age, Lu Yaobi should be the ancestor of Gongsun Liang.However, such a disparity in age did not affect the cooperation between the two. On the contrary, the cabinet showed unprecedented efficiency during the period of these two partners.

It can be said that the reason why Empress Dowager Wenhuan was able to concentrate on developing the military of Nanke Kingdom, which has been weakening since the time of Emperor Taizong, is inseparable from the contributions of these two, and most of the subsequent courtiers also took these two as models.

Although these two people are dragons and phoenixes, they are actually slightly different.

Gongsun Liang belongs to the kind of peerless genius who can only be born once every thousand years. I am afraid that only Gan Luo, who did not die young, can compare with him.After all, this is not a normal person at all!How can a normal person be able to win three yuan consecutively at the age of 17 and join the cabinet as the first assistant at the age of 22?

Relatively speaking, Lu Yaobi is much more normal and more human.At the beginning, people are divided into common people and doing things for the country conscientiously and conscientiously. The starting point is low, and then they will be promoted step by step by hard work and excellent political achievements.Public morality and private morality have nothing to say, and decades of ups and downs in the officialdom have not made him forget his original intentions. He has always hated evil like an enemy and loved the people like a son.Although he paid the price for his uprightness and justice in the end, fortunately, God gave him another chance, and he lived up to expectations and firmly grasped it. After many difficulties, he finally became a role model and idol in the minds of countless non-commissioned officers and students.

No one can copy Gongsun Liang's road to success, while Lu Yaobi is more in line with the psychological expectations of ordinary people.

Therefore, although these two people have high prestige and are role models of the civil official group, the officials of later generations are more obedient to Gongsun Liang, and they are obedient!Conquer his test scores, his literary and military strategies!Most of them respected Lu Yaobi. At that time, most of the people advocated that hard work can make up for one's weakness, and stupid birds fly first. Isn't Lu Yaobi the best explanation of these two words?

But having said that, only by thinking of Lu Yaobi can the officials who have been beaten by Gongsun Liang in all directions in future generations not feel inferior and ashamed of themselves, and can still comfort themselves: how many years does it take for such a monster to appear, after all, most of them are normal people. You see, Mr. Lu Wenzheng is just...

Cough cough, pulled away, now pull back.

After the death of Empress Dowager Wen Huan, Gongsun Liang, who was 31 years old at the time, was completely ruined. If Xia Xu insisted on keeping him in the court, he would have traveled far and wide.However, even though he was still in court, he was determined not to take charge of affairs anymore, and only assumed the false name of chief assistant, secretly delving into Taoism.

Therefore, Lu Yaobi, who was originally only the second assistant, directly assumed the responsibility of the first assistant.Lu Yaobi's career thus ushered in the second and last highlight moment.

After the death of Empress Dowager Wen Huan, Lu Yaobi, who was 77 years old at the time, served Xia Xu as official for two years. After the domestic situation was almost stabilized and Xia Xu took the throne firmly, he proposed to retire and return to his hometown on the grounds of his advanced age.

Of course Xia Xu is desperate to keep him. Gongsun Liang is "not doing his job properly". Now that he finally has an old minister who is old enough, capable enough and loyal to him, how can he be willing to let him go back?In order to let Lv Yaobi stay with peace of mind, Xia Xu specially granted him the title of Prince Taibao, ten thousand taels of gold, hundreds of hectares of fertile land, and a mansion in a prime location in Kyoto. He also promised to give him the posthumous posthumous title of 'Wen Zheng' after his death. Number.

Everything else is fine, except for the posthumous title of 'Wen Zheng' even a courtier can't refuse!

In the 300-year history of the dynasty, how many virtuous ministers can be produced, but those who can get this posthumous title can be counted with two hands, which shows the determination and sincerity of the emperor to keep Lu Yaobi.

Lu Yaobi sighed and shook his head, knowing that he could not go, and after rejecting Xia Xu's reward, he held on to his old bones and continued to fight on the front line at the age of 79.

Four years later, Lu Yaobi said he didn't do anything, didn't say hello, just packed his luggage and went back to his hometown overnight.

Xia Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but fortunately she knew that she was not kind, so she didn't pursue it. She also specially informed the parents and officials in Lu Yaobi's hometown, asking him to treat Lu's family kindly.

In the 23rd year of Tiansheng, Lu Yaobi died at the age of 88. He was posthumously given to Tejin, Zuozhuguo, and Taishi, and he was given the posthumous title of "Wenzheng".

The following year, Lu Yaobi's only great-grandson was born, that is, after the above-mentioned Duke Lu Wenzheng died unjustly in prison.

Ordinarily, Lu Yaobi is such a big official, his descendants don't say that he is rich and powerful, and he shouldn't let others bully him.

But the truth is that Lu Yaobi's son was born as a single biography for several generations, and he had no talent for reading. thought about it.Lu Yaobi has always been upright and upright, and he can't do things for selfishness. Therefore, after his death, his children and grandchildren can only support themselves by farming in their hometown.Fortunately, Lv Yaobi won the fame before and after his life, and was respected by the villagers, and his parents and officials took good care of his family, so he could get by.It's just that I never thought that future generations would encounter such a catastrophe.

Alas...it is quite embarrassing to say.

The great-grandfather had the title of "Lv Qingtian", participated in the formulation of the country's major policies, and was a virtuous minister with a long history, but his descendants died unjustly in prison. How could it not make people sad and heartbroken...

Lin Qing was filled with emotions after receiving the information about 'Grand Lu Wenzheng' from the system. While feeling deep sympathy for the descendants of the Lu family, he hated the Xie family from the bottom of his heart!

It's really not a thing... I think he was also killed by the powerful in his previous life. If it weren't for the opportunity of Gongsunliang, he might die like this descendant of the Lu family.

Thinking of this, Lin Qingyi was filled with indignation: "Since it is Wen Zhenggong, we must not teach him to die without knowing why!"

Qin Run patted Lin Qing on the shoulder and comforted him: "It's natural. Mr. Lu Wenzheng is my role model. Now that something happened to his descendants, adults will never sit back and watch."

Lin Qing was comforted by this, and felt a little better, but... the suffering of the descendants of the civil servant Qingliu reminded him of a hot topic in the Red Chamber discussed on the Internet in his previous life, that is: After Lin Ruhai died, why did some people think that Lin Daiyu could To be a concubine?

After thinking about it, Lin Qing decided to let the two ancients, Qin Run and Liu Daoan, answer this question.

Coughing twice, Lin Qingyan said: "Speaking of the sufferings of the descendants of the civil servant Qingliu, I read a similar story in a book from a small stall, but the protagonist of the story was replaced by a daughter."

Qin Run saw that Lin Qing had brought up this matter on purpose, so he took the opportunity to take over the conversation, "Oh? And this matter?"

Lin Qing nodded, and began his own narration: "I don't know what dynasty or generation, there is a minister of the Ministry of Rites named Su. This Shangshu Su came from a noble family. He was a talented person when he was young. Son-in-law. His whole life went smoothly, but there is only one shortcoming, that is, he is over half a hundred years old and has no children. He only has a three-year-old daughter, Cheng Huan. After a few years, Su Shangshu's wife passed away, and Su Shangshu was also appointed as an imperial envoy on tour. However, Jiang Nan died in office, and before he died, he specially entrusted his five-year-old only daughter to the Yue family to raise him, and also entrusted the entire Su family property to the Yue family, only asking the Yue family to treat his only daughter well."

Liu Daoan couldn't help frowning when he heard this, "Doesn't this Su Shangshu have any brothers? Why did he entrust his only flesh and blood to a foreign surname?"

Lin Qing pretended to have suddenly realized, "Hey! I forgot to mention it. This Su Shangshu is a single heir to eighteen generations, and there is no other relative of the same clan. Since more than ten generations have not separated, teach him The family has accumulated a considerable amount of wealth, and even if Ms. Su grows up, she can rely on this family property to live comfortably for dozens of lifetimes even if she does not marry."

Liu Daoan muttered thoughtfully: "No wonder..."

Seeing that the previous situation had been explained clearly, Lin Qing immediately started the text: "It is said that Miss Su was not treated poorly after she was brought into her grandfather's house. It's not bad. It's especially rare that there is a cousin who is about the same age as her in her grandfather's family. They grew up as childhood sweethearts, and they hit it off even more after they became adults. However, Miss Su's parents are all dead, and no one is in charge of her marriage. The uncle and aunt also disliked her as an orphan, so they kept pretending to be deaf and dumb, not knowing that they were in love with each other, but the only son, Miss Su, would not marry, so the couple came up with a compromise, that is, let Miss Su be the concubine and the main room. Choose someone else."

"To be a concubine?" Liu Daoan thought he heard it wrong, "I'm afraid this uncle and aunt have lost their heads! What is a concubine? The recruiter is a wife and the concubine is a concubine. Although Miss Su and her cousin are in love, according to your story The two of them didn't make a private decision for life, they were innocent, how could they be concubines? Moreover, the original meaning of "concubine" refers to a guilty woman, and it even means a female slave. Although this Miss Su's parents died, she came from a noble family , Let her be a concubine, do you not know how to slap Qingliu in the face? Is it true that the ministers of the court are vegetarians, and the officials don't care about things!"

Lin Qing grasped the point, "Isn't Su Shangshu gone, and no one from the Su family stays in the court, how can there be such great energy?"

Liu Daoan sneered: "Su Shangshu died for the imperial court. Not only did he have no faults, but he also made meritorious service. Naturally, he belonged to the noble class. Although the daughter who was left behind was a daughter who could not pass on incense, it also represented his face during his lifetime. Say no To put it nicely, the Qingliu don't care if Miss Su is dead or alive, but if Miss Su does something that insults their class, they will be the first to refuse!"

"This time they can accept Su Shangshu's daughter as a concubine. Will they also let their daughter be their slave next time? The so-called 'Qingliu' is often used to refer to a scholar-bureaucrat who is virtuous and famous. The most important thing is to make their daughter a concubine... Huh! This is riding on their heads and shit! It is a disgrace second only to the hatred of killing their father and taking their wife!"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Lin Qing, who was stunned, and asked with frowned eyebrows: "Where did you find this messy book? You can even make up such a nonsense story."

Embarrassed by the question, Lin Qing laughed dryly and was about to explain, but was cut off by Qin Run.

"I said, Brother Ruqing." Qin Run looked at Lin Qing with a smile, "There shouldn't be a prototype for your story, why do I... feel so familiar?"

Lin Qing's hairs stood on end when he heard him say this. He never thought that he was so sensitive. He had changed the story so much, and he even taught him to detect it.

Lin Qing's head turned rapidly, and he finally asked him to come up with an excuse in a hurry.

So he calmly drank a glass of sake to hide his nervousness, pretended to be nonchalant and said: "Hey! This is what I bought by accident in my hometown in Fangzhou when I was young. It was all made up by people in the countryside. What I want is a dramatic conflict. Who cares about the logic? It's nothing more than Tu Yile."

Qin Run nodded, thoughtfully: "So that's the case... I'm overthinking it."

Seeing that Lin Qing finally managed to prevaricate him, he breathed a sigh of relief, it was so dangerous...
