Chapter 385 Reselecting the Successor
The more Jiang Chen thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.
"Sir, should we report Xue Wenyan immediately?!"
Xu Meng asked excitedly.
"Not yet." Jiang Chen said in a deep voice.
"why?"
Xu Meng was stunned.
Such a serious crime, but they didn't report Xue Wenyan. What Xue Wenyan stole was the grain of the imperial court!
Besides, the drought is inevitable now. If...if Xue Wenyan is allowed to continue stealing, the disaster relief situation in Luzhou County will definitely be in trouble!
"Brother Xu, I know what you are worried about."
“But I feel that if the Holy Mother Church wants food, it should also be given to the people!”
"In fact, food in their hands is better than in the hands of officials!"
"Also, I always feel like there's something wrong with these things..."
Jiang Chen frowned and expressed his concerns.
After hearing what Jiang Chen said, Xu Meng calmed down.
Indeed, he cannot become a weapon for others!
"Sir, you are right, we should investigate it!"
Xu Meng said respectfully.
"Well, let's investigate!"
Jiang Chen said in a deep voice.
But that night, Jiang Chen couldn't sleep.
He always felt that there was a shadow approaching him.
The next morning, Lu Ling came.
"Lord Jiang!"
"Mr. Lu! Welcome, welcome!"
Jiang Chen came to greet Lu Ling in person and took Lu Ling into the yard.
"Lord Jiang, I won't go in. I'm here today to invite you!"
"My grandpa wants to see you. I wonder if you have time!" Lu Ling said with a faint smile.
"Master Lu wants to see me?"
Jiang Chen frowned slightly.
"Not bad!"
Lu Ling nodded.
"Okay, let's go!"
Jiang Chen nodded in agreement, then followed Lu Ling to the Lu family.
……
On the road, Jiang Chen and Lu Ling were sitting in a carriage.
During this process, the two were very close.
Jiang Chen even smelled the fragrance from Lu Ling.
This Lu Ling should have used the soap he used.
The fragrance is really strong.
It should be... the scent of osmanthus...
"Lord Jiang, what's wrong with you?"
Just when Jiang Chen was distracted by the smell of soap, Lu Ling looked at Jiang Chen with a puzzled look.
"No, it's nothing."
"Mr. Lu, you look a little pale today. Are you feeling unwell?"
Jiang Chen quickly changed the subject.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Lu Ling's face instantly became nervous!
She is indeed not feeling well!
Because she is pregnant today!
Could it be that Jiang Chen saw something?!
"Lord Jiang, I... I didn't sleep well these days, so... I look a little worse." Lu Ling made an excuse.
"So that's how it is. Do you want me to take the Marquis' pulse?" Jiang Chen asked with a faint smile.
He had already seen that Lu Ling was having sex, so he teased her on purpose.
"Thank you, Lord Jiang. That's not necessary. I'll just drink some calming tea." Lu Ling hurriedly refused.
She didn't dare let Jiang Chen take her pulse!
What if taking her pulse reveals that she is a girl?
You know, in order to keep her daughter's body from being discovered, she has had a special doctor all these years!
Jiang Chen saw Lu Ling like this and didn't say anything else.
Soon, the two arrived at the Lu family.
In the Lu family’s hall, I saw Mr. Lu.
"Mr. Lu, you are polite!"
"Hahaha, Lord Jiang, thank you for coming all the way here!"
When Mr. Lu saw Jiang Chen, he laughed and said.
"Haha, old man, your condition is serious. I see that your physical condition has improved a lot!" Jiang Chen also smiled.
……
"This is all thanks to Lord Jiang's medicine!"
Mr. Lu said with a smile.
"By the way, Lord Jiang, I invited you here this time for a serious matter!"
"I heard that you made a water wheel and a water pump. I wonder if I can buy some from you?"
"Ok?"
Jiang Chen was slightly startled.
"Old man, County Magistrate Chen should also be selling it. Come to me..."
"Lord Jiang, given our relationship, I will naturally come to you!"
"Although you and County Magistrate Chen are a family, but... I still have to find you!" Mr. Lu said with a smile.
When Jiang Chen heard this, he understood that the old man wanted to do him a favor!
"Hahaha, okay, thank you very much, old man!"
"How much do you want? I'll send someone to prepare it for you!"
"Hahaha! In that case, thank you very much, my Lord!"
Jiang Chen and Mr. Lu looked at each other and laughed.
"Lord Jiang, since I've met you, I've really admired you more and more!"
"How about you choose one of my granddaughters to marry?"
"Shall we celebrate a wedding?"
Mr. Lu suddenly said.
"This……"
Jiang Chen was stunned.
"Grandpa, there's no need for that. If I marry, I'm afraid only your second or third son will have a granddaughter. I... am not suitable."
Jiang Chen said cryptically.
Mr. Lu asked him to support Lu Ling.
How can I marry the daughter of the second or third son?
But Mr. Lu's next words made Jiang Chen stunned!
"Ah! My Lord, you worry too much!"
"The second and third sons' children are also my blood, so it's okay!"
"this……!?"
Jiang Chen's face changed drastically when he heard this!
Could it be that Mr. Lu is not planning to pass the throne to Lu Ling?
……
"Grandpa, the agreement between you and me has not changed, right?" Jiang Chen asked in a deep voice.
When Mr. Lu heard this, he waved his hand.
With a wave of his hand, the maids in the hall left immediately.
Jiang Chen then realized that Mr. Lu called him here today probably not only for those water trucks and water pumps!
"Lord Jiang, can you tell me how long I can live?" Old Master Lu looked at Jiang Chen seriously and asked.
"This……"
Jiang Chen was stunned when he heard this.
If Mr. Lu takes good care of himself, he can live for at most one year.
After all, medicine can't cure incurable diseases.
It is extremely difficult for Mr. Lu to continue living at this age!
"Doctor Jiang, just speak frankly. I can handle it!"
Mr. Lu said firmly.
"Grandpa, if there are no problems with your body and you follow my medication, you may be able to...live for another one or two years." Jiang Chen said after hesitating for a while.
"One or two years?"
Mr. Lu's eyes changed slightly, but he was soon relieved!
He is so old now, it doesn’t matter if he dies!
"Lord Jiang, I have also been thinking about the issue of succession recently. Lu Ling is indeed excellent, but the second and third sons' children also need opportunities!"
"This year, Luzhou County will definitely suffer from a severe drought. When that happens... I will give them a chance to compete!"
"And you can choose who to help!"
"After all, it's their own skill if any of them can win you over!"
Mr. Lu said in a deep voice.
But Jiang Chen realized that something was wrong.
Mr. Lu gave the second and third sons’ children a chance?
And so sudden?
Could it be that Mr. Lu knew something?
Could it be that Lu Ling's female identity is about to be exposed! ?
