Lu Huiqing knew that his son Lu Yuan was not very smart and his mind was not very mature. If he told him the truth, he might be leaked and would pay everyone's lives. So he told Lu Yuan that he would seek an official position when he was Jiangnan.

But it would be a big deal to go to Jiangnan or the west at that time, but I guess he wouldn't care about this.

After eating for a while, Lu Huiqing hid in the study, wrote a list of several pages, and then deleted and reduced it. After a while, he added some names and thought about it, and changed the order again.

After all, this kind of thing is not a trivial matter. If someone is not strict with his words and even betrays him, he will be afraid that something will happen to him.

Lu Huiqing finally confirmed the list, and after memorizing it, he handed it to the candle to burn it.

The next day, Lu Huiqing went out using the excuse of contacting the carriage and horses.

The cars and horses were rippling, and they walked through the complicated streets. The south gate was incredible, and there were too many vehicles heading south.

Ordinary people don’t care about going south, and they don’t have this capital. They don’t have much property, so real estate actually accounts for most of their property. If they abandon their property and go to the south, they will probably become extremely poor when they arrive at the place.

Even those little rich families may have their assets greatly reduced when they arrive in Jiangnan.

So unless you are an official or a big landlord, you will not choose to follow the south.

Officials must follow the court, and the big landlords have to follow the court. One is to follow the power center to ensure power, and the other is to follow the court that protects them. The barbarians of Xixia specialize in fighting against the landlords and stay in Bianjing, but they don’t take their lives seriously.

The court has not really started its journey. At this time, the families of some officials and the families of big landlords are heading south. The court will not consider them when it starts, so they can only start the journey first. Otherwise, if they are behind, there will probably be big problems.

Lu Huiqing's carriages and horses were heading towards the east gate, and there were also a lot of traffic along the way, but it was more comfortable than going south.

However, it is not because Lu Huiqing chose to walk this path. The reason why he walked here was because the person he was visiting lived outside the East City Gate.

After walking along Huishui for a few miles, there was a very elegant small manor beside Huishui, which was the residence of the people Lu Huiqing was going to visit.

The owner of this place is Lu Qing, whose courtesy name is Chaoren. He was formerly the president of the Central Bank of the Song Dynasty. After resigning from his post a few years ago, he lived here and rarely appeared. It seems quite mysterious to the people nearby.

However, in Lu Huiqing's eyes, of course it is not a mystery, it is just a matter of keeping a low profile.

Lu Qing is Ouyang Bian's most steadfast supporter. When Ouyang Bian founded the People's Bank of China, Lu Qing was the first president of Liangzhe Branch appointed by Ouyang Bian himself. Later, Ouyang Bian stepped down and let Lu Qing take over directly. Except for Han Qi's time in control of the central bank, Lu Qing basically controlled the rest of the time.

Regardless of personal assets and compared with the amount of funds under control, the real God of Wealth in the Song Dynasty should be this person in the past twenty years.

However, the 20-year glory is now time to end. After the news of Ouyang Bian's death came from the west, Zeng Bu came to power. Ouyang Bian's all was demoted and marginalized, and of course Lu Qing, the most staunch supporter, could not escape.

Cai Que, who took over as the Chief Censor at the time, launched an investigation into Lu Qing and forced Lu Qing to step down. Zeng Bu changed his own person to take over as the governor of the central bank.

However, now it seems that Cai Que seemed to be swaying at that time, but it really played a protective role. Although Lu Qing seemed to be embarrassed when he stepped down, his property was not confiscated or went to prison. His political future was just a loss. In the eyes of many people, this is the most cruel way.

But now it seems that this is probably the best way.

Lu Huiqing asked the coachman to park the car in the distance, and walked along the small road by the river to walk over to the gate of the courtyard. He was about to knock on the door, but the door suddenly opened. A man dressed in a fisherman looked at him in surprise inside the door.

Lu Huiqing looked closely and couldn't help but laugh: "Superman."

The fisherman smiled and his eyes opened: "Brother Jifu!"

The world is very strange. In fact, when they were under Ouyang Bian, the relationship between the two was not very good. At most, they had some cooperation in their work. After all, one was an official who set up the Regulations Department of the Three Divisions and the other was the president of the central bank, and there were still intersections at work.

However, although everyone was Ouyang Bian's supporters back then, there was also competition among the supporters. Although this competition was benign, competition was competition, so the relationship could only be said to be a normal relationship between colleagues.

But time has changed, and now we meet again, the two of them wish they met too late. This kind of natural comrade-in-arms' feelings surprised them.

But they are all smart people, and they know the fate of emotions in a flash.

It is nothing more than the mutual appreciation of the people who have fallen into the world, and they are the former colleagues. When they meet again, the passionate years of the past have been dyed with colors again.

Lu Huiqing looked at Lu Qing dressed in a fisherman with emotion.

"Superman, you're getting younger and younger."

Lu Qing smiled and said, "It's really true. When he was in the central bank, he seemed to be glorious, but in fact he worked hard every day and worked very hard. After resigning from his post, he could catch fishing every day and have a variety of vegetables, so he was so comfortable.

Brother Jifu, you look a lot haggard, your hair is gray, alas, things are difficult, you still have to be more open-minded."

Lu Huiqing couldn't help but stroke her hair and looked at it. It was indeed more than half gray. She couldn't help but be stunned, but after a while she smiled freely.

"The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away all the heroes. Right and wrong, success and failure turn into nothing. The green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red for several times.

The white-haired fishermen and woodcutters are on the river bank, and they are used to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze. A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet each other. Many things in ancient and modern times are all laughing at.

More than 20 years ago, my feelings about Ji Mo's poem were not very profound. At this moment, I realized that many things in ancient and modern times were all laughed at, and they were written very well."

Lu Qing was also shocked by the soul-stirring of this poem and was filled with endless aftertaste. When he remembered his life experience, he felt a lot of emotion in his heart for a moment.

"Ji Mo is a real god." Lu Qing sighed, "These words were written when he was in his teens, but I only truly understood this state of mind now."

Lu Huiqing nodded and smiled, "Yes, Ji Motian's genius... Why don't you plan to invite me in and sit?"

Lu Qing slapped his head: "Look, I'm so excited that I forgot about this, please please!"

Lu Qing quickly invited Lu Huiqing into the courtyard. The courtyard was not big, but it was not like the northern manor. A delicate temperament came to his face.

Lu Huiqing praised: "Superman has been in Liangzhe for a long time, and I have really learned this kind of gracefulness of Jiangnan."

Lu Qing smiled and said, "Hi, since Ji Mo transformed Chengyuan, most of the gardens in Bianjing City have looked like this. I am just a learning walker in Handan."

After saying that, Lu Qing was stunned. After he met Lu Huiqing, the two of them would mention Ouyang Bian in a few words. Lu Huiqing also thought of this, and they couldn't help but smile knowingly.

It is probably this kind of connection that makes the two feel close.

Lu Huiqing looked at no one around and whispered: "Superman, do you have any idea to come back?"

Lu Qing shook his head bitterly: "Brother Ji Fu really thinks I enjoy the present, I also think, but this Song Dynasty can no longer tolerate us."

Lu Huiqing smiled: "Have you heard about Xixia?"

Lu Qing was stunned: "I live in seclusion here and rarely go out. I don't know much. I just heard that the Song Dynasty was defeated and the six roads in Shaanxi were also lost.

However, this happened a few years ago, and it is not surprising that I didn’t think much about it. Anyway, I am just a commoner now, and there are naturally tall people who are holding on to it when the sky falls."

Lu Huiqing pointed Lu Qing and sighed, "You, you said you enjoy life, but you are so depressed in your heart, and you are not even moved by such a big thing!"

Lu Qing shook his head bitterly: "Brother Ji Fu doesn't know that Qing regards Ji Mo as a guide to life. When Ji Mo dies, Qing has lost his direction. Without Ji Mo in the Song Dynasty, there is no future. The current situation is just to suffer oneself."

Lu Huiqing's face was strange: "You don't even know that Ji Mo was not dead?"

Lu Qing suddenly stood up, his voice changed: "What, Ji Mo is not dead?"

Lu Huiqing looked strange: "No, I thought this was something that a Song person should know."

Lu Qing strode over, holding Lu Huiqing's shoulders tightly with both hands, tears were already pouring down: "Brother Jifu, don't tease me!"

Lu Huiqing only felt that Lu Qing's fingers were like burning red charcoal, and his arms were in unbearable pain, and he screamed in pain.

Lu Qing quickly let go and apologized: "I'm sorry, sorry, Brother Ji Fu, what you said is true?"

Lu Huiqing couldn't help but her eyes became wet: "Brother Superman, I didn't lie to you. Ji Mo is indeed fine. Sit down and I will tell you slowly."

As the two of them sat down, Lu Huiqing told the story of the past few years as far as he knew. Lu Qing was worried and surprised, sometimes waved his fists and cheered loudly, and sometimes laughed wildly, as if he was crazy.

Lu Huiqing had no joke. Although Lu Qing was not a senior executive of the central bank, the governor of the central bank controlled the world's wealth, and it was not comparable to ordinary senior officials. At this time, it was because of what he said, and he was lost and ecstatic, and his emotions were completely exposed, but because of Ouyang Bian.

Lu Qing was very excited: "In this way, Ji Mo's big Xia situation has been established, and he can fully compete for the world?"

Lu Huiqing didn't know how to answer this question, but just said carefully: "I don't know whether to compete for the world or not, but Ji Mo's side is indeed an advantage in the battle between Song and Xia."
