Seeing that Lu Yu's expression did not change, the chief clerk was not surprised: "Sir, you have been in seclusion for three months and have just come out. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve."
The pastor of Lingzhou often practices seclusion on weekdays, and matters within the government office are usually left to the chief clerk and other close associates to handle.
The imperial court has expressly stipulated that officials below the rank of Xingfu should not practice in seclusion for more than three months, and the Lingzhou shepherd's practice for three months is already the limit.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Outside the government office, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers could be heard faintly.
Before New Year's Eve, Lingzhou Mansion was already quite lively, with lanterns and colorful lights everywhere, and a joyful atmosphere.
However, Lu Yu's heart was different from others, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
In Emperor Taigan's memory, according to the memorial reported by the governor, the rebels invaded Lingzhou Mansion on New Year's Eve!
The entire Lingzhou Prefecture was still immersed in the joy of the New Year, and no one realized that the danger was approaching. The rebels did not encounter any resistance and occupied the entire Lingzhou Prefecture.
It's already midnight, and in a little while it will be the next day, which is New Year's Eve!
The time for Lu Yu to make a comeback is running out.
"What a cruel method. If I hadn't known what would happen, I would have lost my life because of my confusion. If I failed the palace examination so early, not only would all my previous results in the civil and military rankings be invalidated, but I would also be a loser to the entire heaven. The laughing stock!”
The prince's plan has now surfaced.
This means that we don’t intend to give Lu Yu any chance to fail the palace examination immediately!
Although there are many geniuses who have read the history books, they know very little about some official documents of the imperial court, let alone that such a huge rebellion could occur in such a remote place.
Generally, this kind of thing would be concealed in the imperial palace newspapers. After all, this is a secret in the imperial court, and only a few people will know it.
It was precisely because of this that the prince arranged Lu Yu in Lingzhou and asked him to destroy himself there.
"It's a pity that you made a miscalculation after all. I remember exactly what happened in Lingzhou. It's impossible for you to use it to trap me!"
Lu Yu made a prompt decision and ordered: "Go and send someone an invitation to inform the two sect leaders of the Qingmu Sword Sect and Tongtian Dao Sect in the city, as well as the big boss of the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce, that they will come to Xiangshui Tower to hold a banquet at noon. I have important matters to discuss with them. business."
"Sir, today is New Year's Eve. Do you want to entertain them in a few days?" the chief clerk said hesitantly.
Lu Yu waved his hand: "This matter can't wait any longer. You should prepare a note and send it over now. Tell them that anyone who doesn't come will be responsible for the consequences!"
Seeing that Lu Yu's expression was so solemn, the chief clerk immediately agreed.
"By the way, by the way, you can send someone to ask some generals stationed in the city to come over."
"Yes, sir."
…
After the chief clerk left, Lu Yu found the map of Lingzhou Prefecture and slowly unfolded it.
Although the monk's spiritual consciousness can sweep hundreds of miles and see everything, it consumes too much spiritual power. If you want to know the landforms of a place, a map is quite useful.
On the map, the entire Lingzhou Prefecture is surrounded by towering mountains, with a vast plain outside.
There are also some lower-level counties and cities in various parts of Lingzhou, which are faintly emitting sporadic lights.
There is still light appearing in these county towns, which means that the county government offices are still safe, and it is also the best way for the state pastor to detect danger.
If you take a quick look, you might think that all counties and cities are safe. But if you look closely, you will find that the lights in many counties and cities are flickering on and off, as if they will go out in the next moment.
