The Lu family compound was completely turned into a piece of flat land.
Under the leadership of the Huxian County Government, the Huxian County Development Company offered a hundred dollars to buy the land in Lu's Courtyard.
This compound was originally owned by Liang Kai, a nobleman from Huxian County.
Huxian Development Company bought it from Liang Kai for 3,000 guan, and Lu Mingan spent 20,000 guan to buy it from Huxian Development Company.
Now, this land is back in the hands of Huxian Development Company.
Out of humanitarian concern, Huxian Development Company gave Lu Mingyu another hundred dollars to bury the dead Lu clan members properly.
It's dusk this day.
A carriage drove out of the county seat of Huxian County.
The person sitting in the carriage was none other than Lu Mingyu.
The carriage has just entered Anhu Avenue.
He took off his mourning clothes, threw them away, and changed into a set of clean and tidy clothes.
Sitting opposite Lu Mingyu was a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar.
This person is none other than Lu Mingyu’s military advisor, Guo Zhengcheng.
On that day, there was an explosion in Lu's compound. Guo Zhengcheng followed Lu Mingyu to the county government office to show off his power and thus escaped the disaster.
Guo Zhengcheng looked back and looked in the direction of Hu County, feeling filled with emotion.
A few months ago, brothers Lu Mingan and Lu Mingyu came to Hu County with great ambitions and ambitions. They originally planned to develop Lu's business, but unexpectedly, it ended in a hurry within a few months, and even the people were gone.
Asked: "Master, do we want to go back to Fanyang?"
Lu Mingyu's eyes were red, swollen and bloodshot, and he said coldly: "What's the difference between returning to Fanyang now and losing the family dog? Besides, if I go back now, even if my family spares my life, my life will be ruined, and I will never be able to do it again."
be reused.”
The Fan Yang Lu family is a wealthy family in the world with many talents, and Lu Mingyu is from a side family, so he cannot afford to lose.
Guo Zhengcheng immediately understood what Lu Mingyu meant and asked tentatively: "Sir, are we determined to get the secret recipe for glass making?"
Lu Mingyu nodded affirmatively: "Yes, that little beast Du He is arrogant and arrogant. If he doesn't want to cooperate with me, then I will let him see Lu's anger."
…
Hu County, the backyard of the county government.
Ma Zhou said worriedly: "Master, are we really not going to seize the opportunity? Lu Mingyu is right. The Lu family has great influence in the court. If this matter is brought to the court, there will definitely be fewer people to help us, which will add insult to injury.
There are many.”
Du He asked: "Old Ma, in your opinion, what should we do?"
Ma Zhou thought for a while and said seriously: "Take a preemptive strike and tell His Majesty the whole story before Lu takes action."
This is indeed a good strategy.
But Du He shook his head: "Old Ma, why do you need to plan in advance for such a trivial matter? The troops will come to block the water and the soil will cover your ears."
Du He didn't take it to heart.
…
Chang'an.
Imperial City.
Ministry of official affairs.
Gao Shilian walked into the courtyard and saw a door to the east closed.
He turned around, walked to the lobby of the Ministry of Civil Affairs with an expressionless face, and asked: "Why is Mr. Lu not on duty? Is he sick? Is there a letter?"
The busy officials stopped what they were doing and looked at Gao Shilian.
An official came forward and said: "Master Gao, Mr. Lu left in a hurry yesterday afternoon without telling him what happened. It's already past noon today, and he has not been seen. Do you want to send someone to the Lu Mansion to ask?
"
Gao Shilian thought for a moment and waved his hand: "No need, let him go, alas!"
He sighed.
Suddenly, all the officials in the Ministry of Civil Affairs sighed.
Lu Mingyou is the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and one of the important ministers of the imperial court. He was born in the Lu family of Fanyang and is currently the largest official of the Lu family in the court.
Lu Mingyou is different from Lu Mingan and Lu Mingyu. He is a true direct descendant of the Lu family.
The two Lu Mingan brothers were in charge of Lu's business in the capital.
Lu Mingyu, on the other hand, manages officialdom.
The two are not the same.
But now, something big happened to the Lu family in Hu County, and Lu Mingyou certainly couldn't sit still.
Lu Mingyou left in a hurry yesterday afternoon and has not shown up yet. Everyone knows what he was going to do.
Some people couldn't help but say: "Du He is a God-killer. He killed all the Lu family members in Hu County. This is to destroy the whole family. Isn't he afraid of God's punishment?"
Someone else said: "Mr. Zhou, please don't talk nonsense. They all say that Lu Mingan secretly made gunpowder. The gunpowder exploded and killed the whole family. It has nothing to do with Du He!"
"Bah, this is what the county government said. Do you believe it? You think, the Lu family is a famous family in the world. They have so much wealth. Making gunpowder is a rebellion. The Lu family has a hundred courages.
, I don’t dare. Besides, why don’t you choose to make gunpowder in a remote place like the mountains, but in Huxian County, or in your own backyard? Isn’t this stupid? Now, even the people know that, Lu
I was framed by Du He and fell into Du He's way..."
"Oh, don't tell me. Although Du He is cruel and ruthless, and both humans and gods are angry, his plan was perfectly planned. He even deceived ruthless people like Lu Ming'an and Lu Mingyu. What a plan, what a plan!"
"Yes, yes, Du He is indeed very cunning!"
At first, everyone denounced Du He.
But later, some people actually started to praise Du He, which was of course a derogatory compliment.
"Cough cough cough..."
As Gao Shilian listened, he suddenly couldn't help coughing.
"Okay, everyone, this matter has not yet been decided, so please stop discussing it and just do what you are doing."
"yes!"
Everyone agreed wholeheartedly.
When Gao Shilian turned around and left, everyone started talking again.
"Oh, Du He, this little thief, is finished this time!"
"Isn't it? Fan Yanglu's family is ranked among the fifth and seventh surnames. In terms of official influence, financial resources, and manpower, not to mention Du He, even the eldest grandson's family has to be afraid of three points. Du He is not a good guy, and he actually...
Lu Mingan's whole family has been wiped out, how can the Lu family just sit idly by and ignore it, Du He will just wait to accept the Lu family's wrath!"
"That's right, Du He thought he had a dream group. He married two princesses and became arrogant. Little did he know that this time he offended someone he shouldn't have offended. Even if His Majesty favors him, in the face of the Lu family, His Majesty may not do it again.
It’s partial to Du He.”
To put it bluntly, just one sentence: Du He is finished.
…
Ministry of War.
Li Junxian hurriedly walked into the house of Hou Junji, the Minister of the Ministry of War. He looked around and said in a low voice: "Master Hou, the secret guards have heard the news. Mr. Lu of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and your Wang Yuanwailang of the Ministry of War, and
Many officials in the court are gathered in the Lu Mansion at the moment, probably plotting something detrimental to Du He. Do you think this matter needs to be reported to His Majesty? After all, it is not a good thing for ministers to gather in private! "
Hou Junji shook his head: "Du He has stirred a hornet's nest this time. Even His Majesty can't save him. He has offended not only the Lu family, but all the powerful people in the world. These powerful people can't fall off even if their tails are big, and their roots are deep."
, even the royal family had to give them some face, but Du He was nice. Not only did he not give them face, he also gave Lu a hard slap in the face. This is tantamount to slapping the face of the world's most powerful people. Just wait.
There will definitely be something good to watch in the court tomorrow!"
