Chapter 385 Every Family Has Its Own Problems
Chen Songyuan said, "Your Excellency is not in Quzhou, so you don't know how much this kid has done. Last year during the rainy season, the river water at the dock rose and flooded, trapping several fishermen. He personally led people to rescue them, and he almost got swept away. He stayed at the dock for over half a month, losing a lot of weight, but he rescued all the trapped fishermen. He cares about the people, which is something even I can't do."
Lu Xueyin was shocked: "Something happened? How come I didn't know?"
Chen Songyuan said, "At that time, His Excellency was at war with the Tatars. Fan Zhenxi said that as the Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce, it was his duty to rescue the members. Moreover, he was from Quzhou, so it was even more appropriate for him to come and rescue his blind date. Fortunately, the person was rescued, so His Excellency doesn't have to worry about it anymore."
Lu Xueyin was indeed moved after hearing this. She believed that Chen Songyuan would not deceive her about this matter.
Lu Xueyin said, "That must be him." She looked at Chen Songyuan and Gao Ming. "As for this person, it doesn't matter if he's a little less talented. What really matters is his deeds, not his heart. As long as he has the people in his heart, he can learn how to be an official, but a heart that works for the people is rare. You two should also keep this in mind when selecting talents in the future."
The two of them responded in unison.
Lu Xueyin did just that. When selecting talent, she never cared about their academic ability. For example, Chen Songyuan was only a scholar, and Gao Ming was only a juren. But their abilities and their heart for the people were rare.
Lu Xueyin was grateful for Fan Zhenxi's contribution in saving people, so she appointed him as the governor of Quzhou.
Chen Songyuan was very happy and knelt down immediately, "I thank you on behalf of Fan Zhenxi."
Lu Xueyin waved her hand: "Let me be frank. If he doesn't do a good job, I won't let him off."
"Yes! I will never let you down, sir." Chen Songyuan said happily.
The governor of Quzhou has been decided, and the governor of Ningzhou will also be decided.
Gao Ming also had a candidate in mind. "Cui Jun has performed well over the past two years, helping you on your trade journey. He's a cautious and discerning person. Do you wish to use him?"
This time, Lu Xueyin refused without hesitation: "Cui Jun can't."
Lu Xueyin was worried that Gao Ming might have some complaints, so she explained, "I'm not saying he's incompetent, but Ningzhou. Ningzhou is the ancestral home of the Cui family, and they hold great influence there. If Cui Jun were to become the governor of Ningzhou, the nobles would grow stronger, and the people would suffer." After a pause, she said, "I remember Cui Jun's contributions. He can go somewhere else..."
When Lu Xueyin said this, her voice paused. Gao Ming also sensed something, and the two looked at each other.
"Lin'an Prefecture!"
The two of them blurted out the words in unison, and Lu Xueyin and Gao Ming smiled at each other.
It’s good to let Cui Jun come to Jizhou. It’s not local, but it’s not far from Ningzhou.
Jizhou was the last state recovered by Lu Xueying. Everything was taken care of by Lu Xueying, so it was just right to hand it over to Cui Jun.
Gao Ming was overjoyed and said repeatedly, "I'll send someone to write to him right now, asking him to come over as soon as possible."
However, the governor of Ningzhou has not been decided yet, and Gao Ming has no good candidate for the time being. Lu Xueyin is extremely worried, as he still has few talented people at hand.
So Lu Xueyin began to write letters to Shu, Lingnan, Anzhou and other places, asking them to recommend people over.
While the candidate is still undecided, Lu Xueyin will take charge of the affairs of Ningzhou.
Then Chen Songyuan and Gao Ming both set off. Chen Songyuan returned to Quzhou, while Gao Ming set off for the capital.
Lu Xueyin personally escorted the two out of the city. "You two gentlemen, thank you for your hard work," she said, bowing and saluting. "I am grateful that you two gentlemen are still working hard for me. I will always remember your kindness to me and will never forget it."
Gao Ming and Chen Songyuan also bowed in return with serious expressions.
This was the lord they had chosen to follow. She had accomplished what they could not, achieved what they could not achieve. Now, she was blazing through the thorns on her own battlefield, her cause complete. No matter what, they would pave the way for her in this final stretch.
The two left quickly. Lu Xueying returned to the mansion in a good mood, and then saw Wang walking out of Lu Chenyang's room angrily.
Lu Xueyin was overwhelmed.
Needless to say, Wang once again introduced a girl to Lu Chenyang but returned empty-handed.
Ever since Wang knew that Lu Chenyang and the prince were in love with each other, she did what all mothers would do and tried to straighten her son out.
Wang thought that her son must not know the good qualities of women. If he and the woman understood each other, he might not like the man anymore.
So, in the past few days, Wang had collected a pile of portraits of women and showed them to Lu Chenyang. Each one was incredibly beautiful, hoping that this would help Lu Chenyang to change his ways.
Lu Xueyin didn't know where Wang got the picture album under such circumstances.
In fact, Lu Xueyin didn't want to think about it. He was her own brother. Those families who originally wanted to send their daughters to her backyard, now that Lu Xueyin had no chance, wouldn't it be the same to send them to her brother? Who wouldn't want to be associated with her now? But no matter how hard Wang tried, Lu Chenyang was as hard as a rock and remained unmoved.
Every day, Wang was so angry that she felt dizzy and then parted ways with her son on bad terms.
Having seen this kind of scene many times, Lu Xueyin has become accustomed to it. The next step is the part that concerns her - Wang comes to her to complain about her miserable life.
When Lu Xueyin thought of this, her scalp went numb and she turned around and ran.
Lu Xueyin can handle official business without changing her expression, but when it comes to family affairs, she just wants to sigh that every family has its own problems.
