    Lu Qi is well-known among Chang'an officials.  Although his character is despised by everyone, no one can deny his ability to protect himself.  During the Li Heng and An Lushan incidents five years ago, he successively gave advice to Li Heng and An Lushan. Although there was no direct evidence, in the atmosphere of liquidation at that time, the indirect evidence was enough to make people lose their jobs and be exiled to Anxi.  But this guy escaped alive. It is said that Ye Chang originally wanted to punish him, and even said behind his back, "If he doesn't die, the country's affairs will be ruined by his hands." However, there are still many people interceding for him, including Yuan Gongdao himself.  , out of consideration for Lu Qi¡¯s father, Lu Yi, she once said kind words for him.  After all, his father Lu Yi sacrificed his life for the country and died in civil unrest. He was considered a loyal and staunch man and was quite famous in the court.  Under such circumstances, because he was not the chief culprit, he escaped the disaster and was not severely punished, but was not allowed to serve in an official position.  Not being allowed to serve as an official is also a very serious punishment. After Lu Qi left Chang'an for three years, he came back two years ago and worked secretly, hoping that Li Longji would lift the ban on him, but there was no result.  But now, he jumped out again, adding fuel to the flames and helping Li Qiu make suggestions.  As for whether he is really optimistic about Li Qiu, only he knows in his heart.  Chang'an City is approaching the hottest season of the year. Lu Qi is walking in the shadows on the right side of the street, his face is also gloomy.  He likes to walk in the shadows so that the birthmark on his face is not too obvious.  "This is it." After arriving at a building, he raised his face and looked at the plaque above. The four words "article moral justice" made a sneer appear on the corner of his mouth.  "Ye Shiyi has been running around all these years and rarely has peace, but these words have not been abolished." The words on the plaque were written by Ye Chang himself and were addressed to Du Fu, and Du Fu  Hanging it in front of the newspaper office is both a self-encouragement and a protective talisman.  In the past few years, Du Fu has been laughing and scolding a lot. He has criticized the evils of the times and criticized certain powerful people. Moreover, he has been full of firepower. From the stupidity of the old officials to the greed of the new aristocrats, he has criticized them all.  Attack object.  As a result, Du Fu offended more people. Although he gained a reputation for himself, he also attracted many enemies.  With Ye Chang's inscription on the door, those enemies who want to take revenge, or even the scoundrels on the street who want to harass, have to think twice before doing anything.  "Excuse me, is Mr. Du here? I have made an appointment with the man whose surname is Lu. We have arranged to meet him at this time." When he arrived at the concierge, Lu Qi was humble in his words.  "My surname is Luit's true, but Mr. Lu Qi?" The concierge flipped through a thick stack of bills and then said with a smile.  "It's just that I'm here, Mr. Du is very busy." Lu Qi asked casually when he saw that the lists were filled with Du Fu's meeting arrangements.  "That's natural, 'Unprinted Censor, the common people advise, this is not an empty name." The concierge said quite proudly.  "Unprinted censor, common people's advice" is the nickname given to Du Fu by the people. However, as the number of newspapers has increased in the past two years, many writers have used it to encourage themselves.  Lu Qi has also published some articles in newspapers under a pseudonym in recent years. Sometimes, when he receives comments from readers about his articles, he cannot help but feel complacent and feels that he is worthy of these eight words.  The concierge let him in, and when he arrived at a bright and spacious room inside, Lu Qi felt a little jealous when he saw the large windows and doors of the room, and the windows were all made of glass.  These days, even the chief writer of a private newspaper has the money to make his study look like this. He, the son of an official and a descendant of a noble family, is still down and out and driven by others. In front of the study is a small room with a table.  , there is also a young man sitting at the table. As far as Lu Qi knows, he is Du Fu's assistant.  It is said that this is a habit from Liaodong. Some young people with talent and knowledge are sent to serve as assistants to a powerful figure for one to two years. They are familiar with various affairs, and then they go to the lowest level, usually from childhood.  The boss started.  According to Ye Chang, only in this way can these arrogant young people know that it is not easy to get up and down.  Lu Qi was not interested in this, so he greeted the young man, who opened the door for him. Du Fu, who stood up after hearing the sound, came to the door and said, "I have never thought about it. People who write articles in newspapers  Passing by, that's Lu Langjun." Lu Qi used the pseudonym "Lu Passing" when he posted the article, and he was somewhat famous. Otherwise, it would not have been so easy to meet Du Fu.  The two chatted for a while and then started to get to the point: "I heard that Mr. Du was doing a big thing and asked about the shortcomings of factories and mines. I wonder if there are any?" Du Fu suddenly became alert: "How did Lu Langjun know about this?" "  Since I published an article in your newspaper, I am still paying attention to some of your newspaper's trends." Lu Qi sighed: "I have been abandoned by the Ming Dynasty. I can only earn a few pennies by selling articles. You know.  I hope you have some basis for your report." "This explanation is quite normal. Du Fu glanced at him and said with a half-smile, "Lu Langjun is ready to follow up." "Exactly, so I invite Mr. Du."Divide some of the materials in your hands and put them below.  Lu Qi bowed deeply and said, "Du Gong knows that I am not welcome anywhere now. Without Du Gong's help, it will be difficult to achieve anything."  " It is said that a gentleman can be deceived. Du Fu has long been no longer a gentleman after all these years in the newspaper office, but Lu Qi's words still moved him. After all, this man is a loyal man. Although he was a bit ridiculous when he was young, he has been a bit ridiculous in the past few years.  However, his knowledge has increased. It can be seen from the articles he published that he has a deep understanding of the problem and his words are sharp and sharp. Therefore, out of love for talents, Du Fu hesitated for a while.  He took out a piece of information, pulled out part of it, and placed it on the desk. "You can only read this piece here. If you want to write something down, I can give you a pen and paper."  " "Thank you, Mr. Du.  "Lu Qi thanked him, took the materials, read them carefully, and borrowed paper and pen to write down some of the contents that he was most concerned about. "These things were collected and compiled by Du Fu. Over the years,  , the brutal behavior of some powerful people when they opened factories and mines. The profit-seeking nature of capital determines their disregard for human life. Taking mining as an example, although the mining regulations vigorously promoted by Liaodong clearly stated the first requirement of mines.  The first priority is safety. But how can those rich and powerful people control so much? There are many poor people in the world who are willing to die in the mines for more than ten cents a day. The same is true in factories. Liaodong has a strict six-hour work day.  This means that workers must work no more than six hours a day in the factory. If they work overtime, they need to pay overtime wages that are higher than the normal wage. However, in Du Fu's investigation, there were factories that worked eight or even nine hours a day.  After such a long period of time, the salary he received was not as good as that of a worker of the same type who worked for six hours in Liaodong. Even so, these powerful powerful people still tried every means to deduct it. The big powerful people in Beijing were better off, and the most disgusting ones were the small powerful people in the countryside.  They used a few foremen to abuse workers in every possible way, causing workers to be called "work slaves" and their conditions were even worse than slaves. People like Lu Qi were secretly frightened by these examples and data, but at the same time, he felt happy.  This was exactly what he needed. After finishing, he thanked Du Fu again and then left. Du Fu walked him to the door and explained: "Although there are many disadvantages in the mining factory, you must not stop eating because of choking."  The target of this article is those black-hearted mining factories that do not follow the rules and abide by morality. This must be remembered.  " Lu Qi smiled and said: "I know, please don't worry, Mr. Du.  " He said this in his mouth, but he had other concerns in his heart. After Ye Chang proposed the theory of Taoism, benefiting the people is Taoism, which has almost become a public opinion. Under such circumstances, he wanted to change the policies implemented by Ye Chang and take back state power.  The emperor must use his spear to attack his shield. As long as there is evidence that these mining factories are in private hands and harming the people, it can be used as a reason to take them back to the emperor.  People, summing up previous experiences, confirmed that the main reason why Ye Chang could accumulate power that even the emperor could not match in just twenty years was that he controlled most of the world's wealth, so he wanted to compete with Ye Chang.  , we must also control wealth. The reason for Li Heng and An Lushan's rapid defeat was not so much that they were defeated militarily by Ye Chang, but rather that they were defeated economically by Ye Chang. Lu Qi really wanted to see Ye Chang.  What would the expression on his face be like when he was treated in his own way? He didn't expect Li Qiu to succeed - in fact, he knew very well that he was just a person pushed out by Bian Ping.  He is just a chess piece, but he is not a person who is willing to be used. Bian Ping is no longer in the intelligence investigation system. He also knows a little bit about this matter, and from various signs, he inferred that Bian Ping has not been authorized by Ye Chang.  . In this case, it¡¯s no wonder that he played some tricks. Afterwards, Ye Chang had a reason to plead guilty - Bian Ping asked him to do it. He had to do this with his own little thoughts.  After walking out of the door of the newspaper office and walking only a few steps on the street, someone suddenly heard someone shouting: "King Wei has returned to Beijing." "King Wei has returned to Beijing. Come and see, King Wei's guard of honor has arrived."  "Chunmingmen" "His old man is back. It's strange to say that although the world is peaceful, but his old man is not in Chang'an City, my heart will be uneasy. But as soon as I learned that his old man is back, I am so worried.  , and put it back again.  " "You are not the only one, I am the same.  " When people around heard the news that Ye Chang had returned to Beijing, they were all relieved. It must be that the strange atmosphere in Chang'an City has been spread recently, which made these ordinary people feel uneasy. But when they heard that they respected Ye Chang so much, Lu Qi  Disgust arose in his heart. At the same time, he was also very surprised that Ye Chang came back too quickly. As far as he knew, half a month ago, at the insistence of Dugu Ming and others, Li Qiu finally issued an edict to ask Ye Chang to return.  Beijing is in charge, makingEven if he works hard, it will take at least seven days to reach Liaodong. In the past five years, Ye Chang has not only repaired the road system that was damaged by the war, but also further strengthened the postal and road system.  It was a smooth journey, and we arrived at the right time in seven days and seven nights despite the urgent need of 600 miles.  But it only took eight days for Ye Chang to come back?  With doubts, Lu Qi mixed in the crowd and followed them to the imperial street, watching Ye Chang's guard of honor enter the imperial city.  After Li Qiu ascended the throne, he moved his residence back to Da Nei, and the place where Li Longji's coffin rested was also in Xi Nei.  When Ye Chang arrived in Beijing, he didn't stay in his own house. He first came to visit Ouchi, which was a very impressive gesture.  "It's just that although he is so humble, in Li Qiu's heart, he may not feel that way.  "Youwhat did you say, Ye ChangKing Wei has arrived in the capital?" Li Qiu said in shock.  Gao Lishi died a year earlier than Li Longji, and now the chief eunuch in the palace is Zhou Xiangren.  Because he seized the opportunity, the young eunuch now became a prominent figure in the palace.  Although Li Qiu also wanted to replace his confidants, he didn't have the chance for a while because he had only been on the throne for a short time.  "Yes, saint, King Wei is waiting in front of the palace gate to prepare his orders." Zhou Xianren said in a low voice.  "Let him Where is Yuan Zai? Where did Yuan Zai's people go?" Li Qiu originally wanted Ye Chang to come in, but he felt guilty in his heart and wanted to call Yuan Zai to see him.  The person he most hoped to summon was Wang Zhongsi.  It's just that Wang Zhongsi stayed in Sichuan and Guizhou for a long time and became ill. Moreover, with Li Heng's rebellion, he had long been discouraged. Now he is basically recovering at home because of his illness.  Even Yuan Zai, it is difficult to see him.  "Yuan Gong is at home now. It will take some time to invite him." Zhou Xianren said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, do you want King Wei to wait outside?" It was said politely, but in fact it was a reminder to Li Qiu to ask Ye Chang to wait outside.  Not a good thing.  As the chief internal supervisor, Zhou Xiangren was naturally aware of some of Li Qiu's little moves. He didn't want to get involved in such things, so he pretended to be deaf and dumb.  But neglecting Ye Chang at this moment is not a good thing. What could have been a compromise is likely to intensify the conflict because of not paying attention to such small details.  "At the critical moment, he was not in the palace." Li Qiu murmured, forcing himself to calm down, and then said: "Zhou Xianren, go and welcome King Wei for me." After Zhou Xianren went out, Li Qiu thought about something wrong and summoned himself  The confidant of the little eunuch ordered in a low voice: "The Forbidden Army Well, the military supervisors in the East Palace ordered them to wear armor and ambush them at the back of the palace." Ye Chang's influence among the Forbidden Army was too great, and he really couldn't trust it, so he summoned the so-called "  Martial Arts Supervisor".  These were a group of eunuchs whom he trained when he was his grandson. They were all powerful, but only in small numbers.  Hearing the footsteps of these martial arts supervisors, he felt at ease. After a while, he saw Ye Chang appearing in front of him in plain clothes.  "I am encouraged by the late emperor to not give up. I simply stayed in the grass, got a little promotion, and was granted the title of king with some minor achievements. I also bestowed it on my lord. I have received so much kindness that I will never repay it. Now that the late emperor has passed away, I would like to  I will resign from my official post and serve as a vigil for the late emperor for three years, and I ask for your majesty¡¯s permission.¡± The two sides exchanged pleasantries and said some polite words that made Li Qiu feel uncomfortable. Then, he heard Ye Chang make a statement that shocked him.  requirements.
