Similarly, the Zhang family and the Wei family also started taking action.
Piles and piles of gifts were delivered to Fengjuyuan, and Fengjuyuan suddenly became crowded.
And a large number of congratulatory gifts were still on the way, being sent to Xiliang.
Suddenly, the entire Imperial Capital was shocked.
Countless people looked at the scene in front of them and couldn't believe their eyes.
Those are the eight great aristocratic families in the Imperial Capital, with profound foundations and unmatched reputations.
People have always been fawning over aristocratic families, but I have never seen any aristocratic family be so polite to a person.
"They made a right bet. They stood up for Lu Yu after his death. This was a friendship that came to help him in times of need. They will definitely be richly rewarded in the future."
"Who would have thought that Lu Yu's fate would be so great, and he would not die even though he was trapped in an ancient ruins!"
"Sending gifts like this now is just the icing on the cake. The imperial court just issued a decree a few days ago, and Mr. Lu has already joined the cabinet. It is no longer possible to look at him with the eyes of the younger generation."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, some of the families who got into trouble in the first place are probably going to panic."
Just as many people had guessed, countless forces supported Zhao Tong in the past and jointly attacked Lu Yu. Now, they all remained silent and offered congratulatory gifts, fearing that they would be left behind.
The top ten holy places also sent people to Weiyang to congratulate him.
Concubine Mi, the Chai family, and countless other forces are vying to have a relationship with Lu Yu.
Compared with Lu Yu's infinite scenery, the other side is quiet.
Xu family, be silent!
Buddhism, silence!
Xiao family, silence!
Several forces acted as if they had not heard the news of the fall of the Qi Dynasty. Not even a word was spread, and they were quiet.
These are all forces that were enemies of Lu Yu in the past. The strong rise of the Lu family has far exceeded his expectations.
Royal Palace.
Qiankun Hall.
It was not the morning court at this time, only the prince Zhao Yuanyan and a group of close ministers were discussing matters here.
The surroundings fell into a deathly silence.
After a while, the prince said coldly: "Didn't you suggest before that Gu Xu should be given to Lu Yu, a high-ranking official, so that he could fight with King Qi to death? Talk, why don't you talk anymore!"
Several ministers lowered their heads and dared not speak.
"Bang!"
The prince smashed his fist on the table and angrily said: "I usually look for you when I ask questions, and you look like you are pointing the way. How come when something really goes wrong, every one of you becomes mute!"
"Lu Yu is already a bachelor of Dongge University at a young age. Fu Zhixue was already thirty years old when he entered the palace, and he was only in his early twenties."
"Destroy the enemy dynasty and kill the rebels. What do you want me to do to confer him such a top-level achievement? If he makes another great achievement, do you want me to make him the emperor?"
The prince's roaring voice echoed in the Qiankun Palace.
A minister stood up at this time and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, there is actually a way."
"explain."
"Our initial method actually didn't have much of a problem. Driving tigers to devour wolves and borrowing knives to kill people are common tactics. The mistake was that we underestimated Lu Yu's strength."
The prince raised his eyebrows: "Keep talking."
The minister smiled and said: "Now everyone in the imperial court thinks that Lu Yu is an invincible general with unparalleled achievements. We might as well fulfill this wish and borrow Lu Yu's sword again."
"You mean..." The prince's eyes lit up.
The minister said: "The Tang army has been trapped in Hulao Pass for too long. We might as well declare an order and let Lu Yu attack the Tang army. This will not only relieve the siege of Hulao Pass, but also weaken Lu Yu's power, killing two birds with one stone."
