Lu Yuan returned to the Lu family and went straight to the backyard.
Lu Rong came forward eagerly and asked: "Brother, Ambassador Lu invites you, are you appreciating your talent and asking me to become an official?"
Lu Yuan's little eyes flashed, and he lowered his voice and said: "Second brother, my opportunity has come. Lu Shijun has given me instructions to overthrow the clan elders like Lu Qi and let me take charge of the Lu family."
"ah!"
Lu Rong exclaimed in surprise.
His young face was full of horror. He was silent for a moment, but he said with a worried look: "Brother, Lu Shijun asked you to overthrow Lu Qi and others, which is equivalent to using your hand to deal with Lu Qi.
, itβs killing someone with a borrowed knife.β
There was a coldness in Lu Yuan's eyes.
The look in his eyes was even more a little crazy.
He clenched his fist, waved it in the air, and said with all his strength: "For ordinary people like us, we should be lucky to have the opportunity to make knives. Otherwise, we will be like a dog and a dog for the rest of our lives."
"Although Mr. Lu looked for me, he also looked for Gu Tong in the Gu family."
"You also know Gu Tong."
"This guy is extremely ruthless and ambitious. He will definitely try to overthrow the Gu family."
"Here, if I don't take action, Ambassador Lu will choose someone else. Moreover, our brothers have been suppressed. This is our only chance. Whether we can soar into the sky depends on now."
"So there is no point in considering Lu Shijun's intentions."
A trace of cruelty appeared on Lu Yuan's face, and he said: "For us, only by seizing the Lu family and becoming the sword in the hands of Lord Lu can we have a chance to enter the officialdom. As for other things, we shouldn't consider them."
Lu Rong thought for a while, then looked in agreement and said, "But how are we going to seize power?"
"kill!"
Lu Yuan spoke coldly.
Lu Rong said: "Killing Lu Qi and others will definitely cause great turmoil."
"This is the result Lu Shijun wants."
Lu Yuan's eyes were frighteningly bright, and he said: "Lu Shijun specially warned me that when a new generation replaces the old, young people must be ruthless. So do you think it is possible without killing these people?"
"If I were on good terms with Lu Qi and others, Lu Shijun would not choose me, let alone use me. Of course, it is impossible for us and Lu Qi to reconcile. If we keep them, I may be liquidated at any time, and I will be killed if I need to.
kill."
Lu Rongdao: "How do we do it?"
Lu Yuan said with murderous intent: "We also have some people. Go and notify Lu Ang from the second room, Lu Zhen from the third room, Lu Yong from the fourth room, and Lu Bian and Lu Shang from the side branches to send out twenty private soldiers each."
"Let them send their people into the house in batches and send them here."
"Let's take action tonight."
"Let's kill Lu Qi first, and then other clan elders to control the Lu family. Even if we kill people, there will be unrest. But with Lu Qi dead, the overall situation has been decided. I will rely on Lu Shijun's reputation. Who dares to act rashly?
?β
Lu Yuan's eyes were wise and he said: "The clan elders in each house have died, and the benefits freed up are enough to stabilize people's hearts. Everyone among the young people in the Lu family wants to be in power and do things."
Lu Rong said: "I'll make arrangements right away."
Lu Yuan nodded.
He waited quietly.
Time passed little by little, and night fell in a blink of an eye. It was getting late, and all the private soldiers entered the courtyard in batches to hide. After dark, Lu Yuan gathered Lu Ang, Lu Zhen, Lu Yong, and Lu Bian.
There are five people including Lu Shang.
These people are not direct relatives, they are all side relatives, and they are not taken seriously.
That's why they were gathered together by Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan's eyes were blazing and he said: "Everyone, I have said what needs to be said. Tonight is our chance to take power."
"Set off!"
Lu Yuan gave the order.
He led people directly towards Lu Qi's yard.
The Lu family was completely unprepared, not to mention that Lu Yuan was one of their own. When Lu Yuan and his men came outside Lu Qi's yard, even though Lu Qi's personal entourage blocked them, Lu Yuan killed the people who blocked him with one sword.
Killed into Lu Qi's room.
Lu Qi was a little panicked when he saw Lu Yuan's murderous look, and asked loudly: "Lu Yuan, what are you going to do?"
"kill you!"
Lu Yuan spoke loudly.
He held up his sword and asked, "Lu Qi, is there anything else you want to say to give you the last chance?"
At this moment, Lu Yuan felt happy.
It turns out that this is the feeling of having a backer, which is what a man should be like.
Lu Qi stretched out his hand, pointed tremblingly at Lu Yuan, gritted his teeth and said, "What are you going to do? Do you want to rebel?"
"It's not about rebellion, it's about bringing order out of chaos."
Lu Yuan shook his head and said: "Lu Qi, you have always thought that you are the king of the Lu family. Now that the king of the Lu family has come, it's time for you to give up."
The pupils in Lu Qi's eyes shrank, and he suddenly understood, and said loudly: "Lu Xuan arranged for you to kill me, how could he do this? I represent the Lu family and have surrendered to him. Why, he still wants to kill everyone
Absolutely."
Lu Yuan said: "It's not about killing them all, it's about bringing order out of chaos. The Lu family is not yours alone, it's everyone's Lu family. Forget it, I have nothing to say to you, just go to hell."
After the words fell, a sword was thrust out.
The tip of the sword pierced Lu Qi's heart and penetrated his body, and blood continued to gush out.
Lu Qi's face was ferocious, his eyes showed pain, and his old body couldn't help but twitch slightly.
He regretted it.
I regret trusting Lu Xuan.
He thinks that Lu Xuan needs the Lu family, and thinks that he has already expressed his position, and Lu Xuan cannot pursue it. After all, Lu Xuan is a member of the Lu family. If Lu Xuan kills all the people in the Lu family, and the news spreads, there will be an uproar, and countless big families will be in an uproar.
Everyone will boycott Lu Xuan.
However, Lu Xuan did not take action himself, but instigated the Lu family to take action. This was a dispute within the family and had nothing to do with Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan distanced himself.
This is a conspiracy, and no one will accuse Lu Xuan.
Lu Qi's remaining trace of consciousness dissipated in an instant, and his body fell to the ground unconscious.
"Let's go, there are still many people to kill."
Lu Yuan turned around and walked out.
At this moment, the Lu family was no longer peaceful. It was filled with shouts of killing, and screams continued to be heard.
At the same time, the same was true for the Gu family.
News of the civil strife between the Lu family and the Gu family quickly reached the hands of Xu Gong, the prefect.
Xu Gong has spies in both families.
He was a little confused when he learned about the internal strife between the two families, so he immediately arranged for someone to contact the informant. When Xu Gong learned the exact news, he learned that the Lu family and the Gu family were both rebels of the younger generation. The Lu family was Lu Yuan and the Gu family was Gu Tong.
, all gathered people to kill the head of the Lu family.
At this moment, Xu Gong felt his scalp numb.
Whose plan is this?
It must be Lu Xuan.
Gu Tong and Lu Yuan are both suppressed people and have little power. If there is no one to plan or support, Gu Tong and Lu Yuan dare not act rashly because neither of them can control the situation.
It's different when someone supports you.
This supportive person is Lu Xuan, so there will be no trouble.
The more Xu Gong thought about it, the more worried he became. During the day, Lu Xuan, Gu Cang, and Lu Qi spoke in a very kind manner. In the blink of an eye, Lu Xuan incited people to cause chaos. In this way, Xu Gong could turn his hands into clouds and rain.
Horrifying.
He did not rejoice because of the turmoil between the two families. On the contrary, he was afraid that the rabbit would die and the fox would be sad.
What if Lu Xuan wants to deal with him?
In terms of the combat effectiveness of the army, Xu Gong had some private soldiers under his command. However, his military strength was not enough to fight against Lu Xuan. Moreover, Lu Xuan's people entered the city and had reorganized Wu Commandery's army, so Xu Gong had no counterattack troops.
In terms of skill, Xu Gong is even worse than Lu Xuan. Lu Xuan looks smiling on the surface, but kills people in the blink of an eye.
You can't afford to offend this kind of person.
Xu Gong swallowed his saliva. He stood up and paced back and forth. The more he thought about it, the more he became worried and uneasy.
"No, we can't sit back and wait for death, we must save ourselves. I am the governor of Wu County, and what Lu Xuan wants is the official position of governor."
"I'll just hand it over."
"If I hand over everything and cooperate honestly, Lu Xuan will not kill me again."
"Lu Xuan killed Lu Qi and Li Gu Cang. He could have killed him directly, but he did not take action. Instead, he arranged for Lu Yuan and Gu Tong to take action. This proves that he follows the rules and is a person who cares about face. I will hand over my official position and he will not
Pursued.β
"Yes, yes, that's it."
After Xu Gong thought clearly, he looked outside the study and shouted loudly: "Come here, prepare a carriage for me. I want to see Mr. Lu immediately."
Not long after, Xu Gong took a carriage and hurried towards Lu Xuan's military camp.
