After Lu Zhen finished speaking, the hall suddenly became stern, and the needles could be heard.

From the emperor to the few small yellow gates guarding the hall gate, they all showed surprise and couldn't believe their ears for a moment.

At this time, Wei Tang had just brought the memorial to the emperor, but he did not lose his composure because of this, and whispered: "Your Majesty."

The emperor then came back to his senses, took the memorial, quickly swept over the contents above, and then another slight sensation on his face, and the contents above were naturally no different from what Lu Zhen said. After a while, he said, "In Lu Qing's opinion, should this matter be agreed?"

"Your Majesty..." Before Lu Zhen could answer, Wang Han had already walked out first and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, I think Wen Ming's matter is absolutely impossible. This is really a waste of money and may cause trouble in Jiangnan again. Don't let the disaster of Luo Tian Sect be eliminated by then, but other changes will occur again."

"Your Majesty, I also think that hearing Ming's comments are too ridiculous and cannot be approved!"

"I'm asking..."

In an instant, seven or eight officials stood up and clearly expressed their attitude. Seeing this momentum, even the emperor could not help but change his face, and he realized that the matter was very serious.

However, Lu Zhen did not see any joy or anger at this time, and his expression was as usual, as if he was considering the words. After a moment, he said: "Your Majesty, I think that since he heard that as the governor of Jiangnan, he naturally had to know the situation in Jiangnan more clearly than everyone in our court. I would like to propose this invitation, probably for the long-term peace and stability of Jiangnan."

After hearing what he said, Wang Han and others changed their expressions again and glanced at him with a strange look. Everyone knew how much noise the revision of the folk book would cause, how many people would be involved, and how many problems would be caused. Just like a sauce jar, you don’t know the taste of it if you have a lid on weekdays, but once someone lifted the lid and stirred it with a stick, the dirt there would be exposed, and no one could think of it.

Especially Jiangnan, because it is the richest part of the Great Yue Dynasty, it is naturally the deepest involvement with all parties in the court. No one dares to say that once he digs it deep, he can be safe. Especially Lu Prime Minister, he is a native of Jiangnan, and the Lu family is now the leader of the nine surnames in Jiangnan. Why is he willing to put his family in a completely stalwart?

The emperor also had such doubts in his heart. Although he was not in a hurry to speak, his eyes looking at Lu Zhen had already expressed his thoughts.

When he was watched by these many people, Lu Zhen did not see any panic at all, but just smiled: "Your Majesty, I have been appreciated and valued. I have been in this left prime minister for many years. I dare not say that everything is just for the court, but I also distinguish between the minority and the more important.

"In my opinion, if I heard the Ming report this time, it would definitely make Jiangnan Dajing. Those Luotian Cult thieves who were hiding among the people would have nowhere to hide. It would be beneficial to the court without any harm. As for this, some people in Jiangnan were implicated, under the general trend, they could only be wronged. No matter how heavy the family is, it is not as good as the country, and no matter how close the relatives are, they are not as good as the king!"

The emperor smiled: "No matter how heavy a family is, it is not as good as a country, and no matter how close a relative is, it is not as good as a king. Lu Qing is worthy of being my humble man. I feel very comforted for the country to think of this. What do you think about this?"

The other ministers were completely stunned. Lu Zhen's statement not only raised himself to the point of being single-minded for the country, but also put them on fire. If he agreed, the consequences had been said just now, but he had to oppose it again. With Lu Zhen's loyalty as a comparison, their opposition would be no matter how serious it was. He only seeks personal gain for himself, which would inevitably leave an extremely bad impression in the emperor's heart.

At this moment, Wang Han suddenly understood why Lu Zhen wanted to make this choice. Because he was from Jiangnan and because the Lu family was the leader of the nine surnames, he had to agree with this revision of the folk book.

Because this memorial was sent to the Political Affairs Hall by Wen Mingming, it must have been handed over by many people before. Although these important officials have only learned about the matter now, many people outside have seen it and even spread it. With the greatness of this matter, it will inevitably become the focus of discussion among officials in the capital.

Once this matter is unanimously opposed by the monarch and ministers, these discussions will be more directed to Lu Zhen, because everyone knows that his family is in Jiangnan, so they will suspect that he is relying on his power to suppress such a major event that is beneficial to the country and the people for the sake of his family's interests.

If it weren't for the excuse of Luo Tian Sect, everyone might not have studied it in depth, but with this point, especially after knowing that Jinling was almost captured by the Luo Tian Sect's traitors, and the imperial court's money and grain were almost robbed by them, all officials in the court would support the investigation of Jiangnan and recompile the civil book. After all, for most officials, their own problems were nothing compared to the chaos in Jiangnan, especially when this matter had not come true, everyone would stand at a moral high ground and accused Lu Zhen of abolishing his public for personal gain.

Wang Han even thought that by then, he might use this to attack the great enemy in the court, and the emperor was afraid that he would be dissatisfied and thus attack Lu Zhen on other matters.

So it seems that Lu Zhen made this decision the most beneficial to him, and as he retreated, the blame fell on Wang Han's head...

Thinking about the pros and cons, Wang Han suddenly became excited and immediately changed his words: "The noble character of Lu is really admirable. Your Majesty, I also think that this matter should be done correctly and give Jiangnan a bright world!"

As the two prime ministers expressed their opinions, the others also understood one after another. No one could stand here was fools. They were smart and knew the best of advancement, retreat, gains and losses. They all changed their words and expressed their support for rebuilding the folk book in Jiangnan.

The emperor also reacted from the initial surprise and looked at Lu Zhen with a smile: "Since all the Qing families think that this matter should be done, I should allow it. However, you still need to wait to check the details together, so you can't really cause trouble in Jiangnan again. Lu Qing, you will be the leader of this matter. Join the two major yamen of the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works to select capable officials and send them to Jiangnan to assist Wen Ming in completing this major event."

"Your Majesty is wise, I will obey the order." Lu Zhen was stunned for a moment and still issued a reply to the order.

With the finalization of this major event, today's court meeting came to an end. Wei Tang asked everyone on behalf of the emperor: "Do you have any more things to report?"

However, the ministers were immersed in their thoughts, and they all stood silently. After a while, the emperor nodded and Wei Tang shouted again: "Retreat the court--!"

After bowing again, the ministers slowly left the hall, but just when Lu Zhen was about to go out, the emperor called out: "Lu Qing, stay first." The emperor called the ministers to stop them, and it was a common thing to report privately. Naturally, everyone was not surprised. They didn't even stop and left the hall.

It was not until the emperor and his ministers were left in the hall that the emperor slowly stood up, walked out from behind the imperial case, and looked at Lu Zhen with a smile: "This matter is very embarrassing, right?"

"I dare not speak for your Majesty and for the country."

"Haha, there is no need to be so reserved in private. I know that this matter is also a big trouble for your Lu family. If what the aristocratic families in various places are doing today, I'm afraid everyone has already known it."

"I am afraid..." Lu Zhen was shocked, trying to admit that he was wrong, but was interrupted by the emperor: "No need to be like this. What kind of person are you? After so many years, don't I know? Even if the Lu family has had it, you are innocent. I just want to ask you, do you really think about this matter?"

"This... Wen Ming is an outstanding person with a high spirit and a high spirit. He is indeed likely to do great things for the country. However, the forces in various parts of Jiangnan are complicated. Once there is a conflict with these major families, even the ministers dare not escape without saying that they will not escape without saying that they will not be able to do anything."

"Then do you work hard to make this happen? Are you afraid that you will be targeted by those aristocratic families in the court?"

"They don't have the courage yet! This is Your Majesty's will. At most, they will make some troubles. They clearly dare not make things difficult for Jiangnan, and I am even more so here. As for grudges, I have been an official for many years, so I have long since been concerned about these."

"Haha, you are open-minded. So, in your opinion, what should you do if you want to accomplish this?" The emperor asked again, his expression was much more serious than before.

Over the years, as the emperor, he knew that the entire world of Dayue had been full of problems. The rich and powerful were all over the country, and the servants could do thousands of ways, while the poor had no place to stand, and even he could not protect himself... Such a problem would inevitably affect the stability of the world. Why did the Luotian Sect repeatedly attacked? The root cause was still here.

He had thought about change, but after thinking about the serious consequences caused by this, he retreated in fear. After all, he was old and no longer as excited as a young man, and he was unwilling to make trouble in the world. Of course, another reason was that there was no one available. The important officials in the court naturally had the ability, but they also had various involvements. How could anyone like Lu Zhen really do something to be an enemy of the aristocratic families in the world?

So when Wen Ming delivered this memorial to him, the emperor was more happy, and he suddenly had the idea of ​​giving it a try. But he was unsure, so he asked Yu Lu Zhen for advice.

Lu Zhen pondered for a while before he said slowly: "It is naturally difficult to accomplish this matter, but it is not impossible to have any chance. In my opinion, to accomplish it, there must be three conditions, and none of them are indispensable."

“Which three?”

"One is the time of heaven, which means the full support of Your Majesty and the court. You cannot change your course because of twists and turns in the middle or attacked by the crowd. Second, the geographical advantage, in Jiangnan, the situation should be stable, and Wenming must have enough prestige to suppress all aristocratic families. This is particularly important, and it is the foundation for success; Third, in harmony, Wenming wants to accomplish this, and to have a group of capable officials under his command to overcome obstacles for them, not be threatened by others, and do not count personal gains and losses. Among the three, there is one lack, and the matter in Jiangnan will be defeated. If you can get all of them, you may be 50% sure that things can be accomplished."
