Lu Jia looked at Micro Motion calmly, then smiled.

"Just like this, of course it won't make him betray Lord Shangshu."

Micro Motion frowned, waiting for Lu Jia to finish.

Lu Jia said: "But this is the key point for me to get the tax. If Mr. Gao wants to know, should he give me some benefits?"

There was a smile in Lu Jia's eyes. What she said was straightforward and frank, which made it difficult for people to have other doubts.

Micro Motion looked at her, "What benefits do you want?"

"That depends on what benefits Mr. Gao can give me, or what benefits Mr. Gao thinks this secret is worth."

Lu Jia picked up the teapot, refilled the tea for Micro Motion and himself, and said in a leisurely manner. After the tea was poured, he folded his arms on the table, looking very cute.

Gao Zhun smiled, "Are you planning to completely dissociate yourself from Master Shang Shu? Does your father know this?"

"Naturally, otherwise, Master Gao thinks why I came to the capital, why should I be a female official?"

Micro Motion froze for a moment.

Suddenly, a surge of emotion surged in my heart.

Before, he felt that there was something hovering in his heart and mind, which made him feel eager or restless, but now he finally understood what made him restless.

It was Lu Qingshan behind Lu Jia.

Lu Qingshan asked Lu Jia to come to the capital and let Lu Jia be the female official, it was because Lu Qingshan needed someone who could help him grasp the wind direction of the capital at any time.

One of Lu Qingshan's daughters married the second son of the Marquis of Rong'an. Originally, this marriage allowed the Marquis of Rong'an to become Lu Qingshan's messenger in the capital.

But something happened to Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yan and the Lu family have always been at loggerheads, Xiao Yan will definitely not help Lu Qingshan.

Then Lu Qingshan can only make his other daughter a female official.

This is such a great opportunity, how many people wish they could have an intimate relationship with generals. The Minister of Household Affairs received Lu Qingshan's money, but pretended to be clever to make things difficult for Lu Jia.

Presumably he wanted to use this method to make Lu Jia submit to him. He wanted to control Lu Jia so that he could get more benefits from Lu Qingshan!
But he didn't expect that Lu Jia turned to look for him!

Micro Motion was so shocked by his own analysis that his mouth was dry and his nerves were agitated. He grabbed the teacup on the table and drank it in one gulp.

There was a momentary light in his eyes, "If you can tell me this secret, I can guarantee that any secret that the Ministry of Finance knows will be shared with you."

Lu Jia's face burst into joy, "Really? Are you serious? Master Shang Shu refused to agree."

She is like an innocent little girl.

After getting the benefits he wanted, he excitedly revealed his true form.

Micro Motion became more and more sure of the analysis and guesses in his mind.

He has been serving as the right servant of Hubu for five years.
Now that His Majesty cares about government affairs in general, if the Minister of the Household Department does not make any serious mistakes, it will not be easy to be replaced easily.

His promotion was hopeless.

Originally, he gave up and didn't think about promotion anymore, he just wanted to make some serious money while on the job.

After all, the common people are getting poorer and poorer, officials are getting more greedy, and there are too many monks and too little food, so it is getting harder and harder to earn money.

Last year he was able to steal 20 taels, but this year he only got 12 taels. If things go on like this, what is the point of what this official does.

How could I have imagined that God would show mercy and give him such an opportunity.

Micro Motion said firmly: "I can swear, and I can also write a letter of guarantee."

The fish has been hooked.

On the contrary, Lu Jia was even more unhurried.

"Actually, my method is very simple. I just told the boss that the second son of Shangshu Hubu is very close to His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

Micro Motion was stunned for a moment, "How do you know?"

"Because the Second Highness is recuperating in my yard, if anyone has visited him, I naturally know that Lord Shangshu's second son has visited him three times, each time at night, and the people on duty at the Ministry of Punishment are about to doze off. Take a look in the past.

Although the time spent there was very short, the frequency of going there was high.

You know, the Second Prince has never been visited by anyone since he fell into a coma and recuperated at my place. "

"Do you know Lord Shangshu's second son?" Gao Zhun asked.

"Master Xiao told me."

"Lord Xiao? Xiao Yan?" Gao Zhun was full of doubts.

Lu Jia nodded, "Lord Xiao likes me, and Lord Gao must have heard of it, so sometimes he stays a little later with me.

I met Lord Shangshu's second son, he told me.

He also said that his visit this time represented the meaning of Lord Shangshu.

Our Second Highness, don't look at the appearance of not fighting or grabbing and keeping aloof from the world, but in the royal family, who can really be aloof from the world?
When the Second Highness was relying on the Pingwei Army, Lord Hubu Shangshu had a very good relationship with the Second Highness in private. "

Lu Jia said while observing Micro Motion's expression for a moment.

As soon as Lu Jia's words fell, Micro Motion immediately retorted, "It's impossible. At that time, the Pingwei Army was fighting, and the imperial court asked the household department to pay the military salary. At that time, the household department was actually rich, but Master Shangshu insisted on earmarking the funds for special use, but he didn't give them money. Ping Weijun sent a word.

The Pingwei army is the army of the Second Highness's grandfather. If Lord Shangshu really made friends with the Second Highness, how could he not pay a penny?

Moreover, the Pingwei army needs military food support from the rear. You may not know that Master Shangshu ordered him to distribute it. It was all old rice with worms, and some of it was moldy. Let alone people eat it, even animals may not be able to eat it. Can bear it.

It's vicious enough to feed these soldiers.

When Pingweijun was still there, he dared to do this. With Pingweijun gone, he could make his son get closer to the Second Highness? "

Lu Jia snorted coldly in his heart, the Minister of the Household Department is really not a good person.

Interrupted Gao Zhun, "Master Gao really thinks that the Pingwei Army didn't receive military pay?"

Gao Zhun looked at Lu Jia, Lu Jia said: "The Ministry of Household Affairs can be regarded as a fat job, if Mr. Gao is capable, you might as well inquire about Mr. Shangshu's small coffers, you will be shocked.

He is not what he seems to be at all, and he refuses to give Pingwei Army any military expenses and aid.

On the contrary, he used his own money to subsidize the past in private.

He belongs to one party of the Pingwei Army, that is, the party of the Second Highness. "

"How does Third Miss Lu know this?" Gao Zhun asked suspiciously, his heart was turbulent. If Shang Shu really belonged to the second prince's party, based on the emperor's dislike for the second prince. Never heard of it."

"You didn't hear about it in the household department, but it doesn't mean that my father won't hear about it in the military camp."

Gao Zhun was taken aback, and sighed.

Bringing the topic back to the owner, "This owner is a man of current affairs. Even the owner knows that he can't get close to the second prince. Why is Lord Shang Shu so confused that he wants to be with the second highness?"

Lu Jia sneered, "Of course it's because of the military power in the hands of old general Ping Wei. He thought that with this military power, he would be able to be a dragon in the future."
