Although it was late at night, an oral order came down from the palace, and no one dared to neglect it.
Not long after, the important officials of the court came to the imperial study room of Tai Chi Hall.
However, Du Ruhui excused himself from illness and never showed up.
Du He is naturally among them.
Li Er gave everyone a seat, and then briefly explained what happened in Yunyang today.
Everyone was shocked.
If Lu Huayuan sent people to assassinate the King of Shu before, it has not been investigated clearly and there is no conclusion yet, but Lu Huayuan blatantly killed seven or eight people, including the county magistrate of Yunyang County, which was a blatant rebellion.
Li Er said in a deep voice: "My dear friends, Lu Huayuan's move is tantamount to declaring rebellion. Can you tell me how to deal with it?"
Wang Gui said: "Your Majesty, Lu Huayuan was so brave to kill an official of the imperial court. Please make an order for your Majesty to have the Fan Yang Lu family hand over Lu Huayuan and send him to Chang'an for punishment and inform the world."
Changsun Wuji said: "What Mr. Wang said makes sense. At this time, the Lu family will surrender to the imperial court. The future of the Lu family depends on your Majesty's words. Lu Huaguang will definitely make the right decision."
"Yes, Your Majesty, although yesterday's incident has not been thoroughly investigated, it can now be found out that Lu Huayuan sent people to attack the Beggar Legion camp not to assassinate the King of Shu, but to snatch Lu Mingyou's body and share it with the King of Shu
The conflict between His Highness is most likely a misunderstanding."
"I second the proposal!"
Many people followed Wang Gui and Changsun Wuji.
"hehe!"
At this moment, a sarcastic voice sounded in the study.
Everyone turned around and saw that the sound was coming from Du He.
Changsun Wuji couldn't help scolding him: "Du He, we are discussing important matters of the country. What do you mean by making fun of us for no reason?"
"Yes, Du He, it's fine if you don't make any suggestions, but you still have such an attitude. What do you mean?"
someone asked.
Du He stood up and said calmly: "The world laughs at me for being too crazy. I laugh at others but they can't see through it. Ministers, I want to conquer the world and assist my father in governing the world. I am not as good as you, but if you look at the essence through the phenomenon, you...
…all combined are not as good as me.”
Saying that, Du He stretched out his little finger and shook it.
When everyone saw it, they found it very ironic.
"Du He, don't be so arrogant!"
"What a arrogant boy!"
"We are all the founding heroes of the Tang Dynasty. When will it be your turn as a young boy to speak."
Du Ruhui was not present, so everyone scolded Du He very rudely.
Du He looked unmoved and sneered: "Everyone, I am not here to quarrel with you today. I have only one sentence. Within ten days, the Lu family will rebel. The Lu family is already a wild horse that has escaped the reins. It's a shame that you are still here."
I am planning here to appease the hearts of the Lu clan and win over the Lu clan, but beware that the attempt will be in vain."
Before everyone could react, Du He bowed and saluted and said: "Father, this is the end of my words. It seems redundant for me to be here. Please leave."
Li Er waved his hand.
Du He retreated.
Du He walked outside and found Li Ke sitting in a wheelchair. He had been waiting for a long time. The person pushing the wheelchair for him was Ximen Qing.
When Ximen Qing saw Du He, he quickly saluted.
Li Ke asked: "Teacher, as I expected, those fools don't believe that the Lu family will rebel at all, do they?"
Du He nodded: "Born from sorrow, died from happiness, my lords, we have lived in comfort for too long, and the sensitivity of the past has been lost. Since we cannot rely on them, we can only rely on ourselves for this matter.
"
Li Ke's eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "Teacher, what do you mean, we are now going to forge an imperial edict, mobilize the troops from Youzhou area, rush into Fan Yang, and kill all the Lu family?"
Du He: "..."
Du He said speechlessly: "Your Highness, the idea is a good one. However, let alone the fact that the Lu family has taken precautions, the Lu family has not openly rebelled yet. If we really do this, we probably won't have to come back alive."
Chang'an is safe."
"Um," Li Ke said helplessly, "What should we do?"
"The key to this matter lies with the Mighty Legion."
"What?" Li Ke looked confused, "Teacher, the Guancheng Brigade is the Guancheng Brigade of Hu County. It must protect the safety of Dream Group, Hu County, and the business center. It must not be transferred. If it is just
It will be very difficult for a hundred people from the mighty legion to stop the Lu family from rebelling!"
Du He showed a mysterious smile: "Who said we want to stop the Lu family's rebellion?"
…
Inside the royal study.
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent.
Li Er asked: "Gentlemen, what do you think of Du He's words?"
Changsun Wuji was the first to say: "Your Majesty, Du He is making alarmist remarks. Although the Lu family is a powerful noble family and one of the five surnames and seven hopes commonly known among the people, he would not dare to give the Lu family a hundred courages.
Rebellion. Besides, if the world is peaceful and the people live and work in peace and contentment, the people will not support the Lu family."
Wang Gui said: "Du He's words are not trustworthy. It can be seen from the fact that Lu Mingyou was killed... Lu Mingyou is the heir of the Lu family and the biological son of Lu Huaguang. Lu Mingyou was killed and the Lu family was destroyed.
The whole family was executed. If the Lu family really wanted to rebel, they would have rebelled long ago. Why send Lu Huayuan to Chang'an to ask His Majesty to investigate the matter thoroughly? Moreover, the Lu family is willing to completely surrender to the imperial court. Once the Lu family completely surrenders, then the Lu family's population, land
, we must truthfully account to the court and pay taxes every year. This is a huge loss. Why would the Lu family do this... There is only one truth, and that is that it is impossible for the Lu family to rebel."
"My lords, what you say makes sense."
"I very much agree with the analysis of Lord Changsun and Lord Wang."
Li Er couldn't help but nodded after hearing this.
As for Du He's words, they sound reasonable, but they cannot stand up to scrutiny.
Li Er nodded: "That's true, but Lu Huayuan sent people to attack the mighty army camp and killed the officials of Yunyang County. This matter cannot be left alone."
Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty, I suggest that we issue an edict to warn the Lu family about what they did. Lu Huaguang is a smart man, he must know what to do."
"It seems that this is what we have to do. Someone come and issue an order to reprimand the Lu family." Li Er said.
The matter was resolved satisfactorily and everyone was happy.
Li Er personally ordered the imperial chef to make a midnight snack, and everyone ate the midnight snack in the imperial study room before they all dispersed.
Early the next morning, an edict was sent from Chang'an and headed straight for Fanyang, Youzhou.
…
A few days later, Du He's deadline for the Lu family to rebel within ten days had passed.
After the morning court, Li Er asked all the important ministers to stay and asked: "My dear friends, is there any news about Fan Yang?"
Hou Junji, Minister of the Ministry of War, said: "Your Majesty, I have sent a large number of people to the Youzhou area to inquire about the news a few days ago. Now there is news that the Youzhou area, whether it is Youzhou City or Fanyang County, has
It is no different from before, and the Lu family has not behaved in any unusual way. It seems that the possibility of the Lu family rebelling is very slim."
Changsun Wuji couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, I have long asserted that Du He is just alarmist, and the Lu family will definitely not rebel. Now, this is the fact."
