Although Fanyang is only a county town, it is extremely prosperous and comparable to Youzhou City.
The Lu family's house occupies most of the entire Fanyang County, but the real core of the Lu family is not in the city, but at the foot of a mountain more than ten miles south of the county. The environment here is quiet and the air is quiet.
It is peaceful, and the houses are all of great value, with an aura of luxury everywhere.
The mansion closest to the foot of the mountain covers an area of ten thousand acres and is where the head of the Lu family lives.
A mile away, the guards were already heavily guarded. When they arrived at the house, there were even sentries at three steps and one post at five steps. Not even a mosquito could fly in.
At this moment, in a study room in the backyard of the mansion.
Lu Huaguang, the head of the Lu family, was sitting on a sofa.
This sofa came from the distant city of Chang'an and was made by a furniture factory affiliated with the Dream Group. There were only ten of them in the entire Tang Dynasty, and the price was astonishing. Five of them were bought by Lu at a high price.
When the sun shines in.
Lu Huaguang slowly put down the letter in his hand, his face neither sad nor happy.
When the news came from Chang'an that the third young master had rebelled and was beheaded by the whole family, the entire Lu family was shocked, but Lu Huaguang was very calm. Now that Chang'an City has sent detailed information about what happened, he is still very calm.
Opposite him, on both sides, were all the prestigious elders of the Lu family. These people, like the civil and military ministers who assisted His Majesty Li Er, had a respected position in the Lu family.
Before Lu Huaguang could speak, a clan elder said loudly: "Master, the third young master rebelled. This matter is completely false. The latest news from Chang'an is that the third young master was killed by Du He the night before the imperial court ransacked his house. Du He then
He is the real murderer, Patriarch. I, the heir of the Lu family, have been killed. This is unbearable. Please give the order, Patriarch. From today on, I, the Lu family, will hunt down Du He with all our strength. We must take the head of that little beast.
Come and pay homage to the Third Young Master."
"Yes, there is no trace of the third young master's body, it was all caused by the little beast Du He. Head of the family, I am willing to go to Chang'an, kill Du He, and avenge the third young master."
"revenge!"
"If I don't avenge this revenge, how can I, the Lu family, have any face in the world?"
"Master, please give me an order. Du He is just a commoner son-in-law. Even if the Duke of Lai is behind him, Du Ruhui relies on his high status and never makes friends with any party members. The Duke of Lai has nothing to fear."
"The head of the family..."
Many clan elders advised him.
Someone was so excited that he drew his sword and chopped the table in front of him in half.
Someone took out a dagger, cut off his long hair, and shouted loudly that he would not keep his hair until he killed Du He.
Some people took off their clothes and ran naked.
For a moment, there was chaos in the study.
boom.
Lu Huaguang suddenly slapped his hand on the table, stood up, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I will make my own decision on this matter. Of course Du He deserves to die, and the Duke of Lai will also be buried with him, but not now."
Then, he looked at the first person on his left, who was a fat man with a beard, about fifty years old, and said, "Second brother, this time, it's up to you to take action."
The bearded Lu Huayuan stood up and said, "But please follow my brother's orders."
Lu Huaguang ordered: "Second brother, you are going to Chang'an for two reasons. First, to meet with your majesty and tell him that my son was wronged by others, and to ask your majesty to investigate the matter thoroughly. Second, to find Du He.
, bring Mingyou’s body back.”
Some people still wanted to object, but they were so frightened that they dared not speak when Lu Huaguang glared at him.
When Lu Huaguang was young, he was nicknamed Lu Huaguang, the kind who could eat people without blinking an eye.
…
The business of Hu County Commercial Center is getting worse day by day.
More and more people are leaving the business center and even regard it as a restricted area and no longer set foot there.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, on August 17, people from the Lu family came to Chang'an.
The leader was none other than Lu Huayuan, the younger brother of the current head of the Lu family, Lu Huaguang.
When Lu Huayuan entered Chang'an, he did not go to the Lu Mansion, which had been raided by everyone, as if it had nothing to do with the Lu family. Instead, he booked a restaurant and stayed behind closed doors without seeing anyone.
Many people speculated that Lu Huayuan came to Chang'an to avenge Lu Mingyou and to show the Lu family's anger. Du He would definitely die this time.
After three days of this, Lu Huayuan entered the palace and was summoned by Li Er. No one knew what happened. They only knew that Lu Huayuan looked calm when he left the palace.
In the evening of that day, Lu Huayuan left Chang'an in a carriage and rushed to the Prince Consort's Mansion in Hu County.
…
It was the first time that Lu Huayuan saw such a strange building. It could only be described as ugly. The entire Prince Consort's Mansion looked gray and without any sense of refinement. If it was placed in the Lu family, such craftsmen would be dragged out and chopped down.
Of the brain.
He glanced at it casually, then followed his servants inside, waited in the hall for a while, and finally saw Du He.
When he saw Du He for the first time, Lu Huayuan couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Because Du He is too young.
It was such a young man who actually killed so many people of the Lu family, causing the Lu family to suffer heavy losses in Chang'an City.
Given time, this boy will definitely be our biggest enemy of the Lu family, and we must get rid of him as soon as possible. Lu Huayuan thought to himself.
But he said: "I heard about Du's consort's reputation in the past, but when I saw him today, he was indeed well-deserved."
Du He sat down, waved his hand for tea, and then asked: "Second Master Lu, why are you here today?"
Lu Huayuan said straight to the point: "Only for one thing, that is, I want to take away Mingyou's body."
Du He smiled and said: "Of course! But the price is."
Du He stretched out three fingers.
Lu Huayuan asked: "Three thousand strings?"
Du He waved his hand: "No, three million strings."
Even though he had seen the big world, Lu Huayuan was also shocked.
Three million strings, why don't you go and grab it?
Lu Huayuan's eyes widened and he said: "Prince Du, I'm afraid you don't know. I, the Lu family, have never spent a lot of money on anything I want. Besides, my nephew's body is in your hands. This fact is very clear."
The question is, aren't you afraid that the Lu family will ask for it from you at all costs?"
Du He slapped the table and said loudly: "Who are you trying to scare? Do you think I'm scared? Don't think that the Lu family is so awesome. If you piss me off, I'll just go to Fan Yang and eat you all together. Aren't you very good at it?"
Damn it, Lu Mingyou’s body is in the mighty army camp, you have the ability to snatch it!”
Lu Hua was exhausted, so he said goodbye and left.
Du He stood in the middle of the hall, staring at Lu Huayuan's leaving figure, silent.
Lu Huayuan went straight out of the Prince Consort's Mansion. After going down the mountain, he came to the carriage and ordered a bronze-skinned man next to him: "Go to the Tang Beggar Army immediately."
"yes!"
…
Two hours later.
Night has long swallowed the earth.
In a mountain stream, dozens of torches were lit.
Among the crowd was Lu Huayuan.
The bronze-skinned man reported: "Second Master, we have found out clearly that the Beggar Army seems to be heavily guarded, but in fact there are not many people, and those people are all made up of beggars. They are simply a mess. Our people can clearly see that inside the Beggar Army
There is a large camp, which is guarded by many people, and ordinary people cannot enter it. It seems that the body of the third young master is in it."
