God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1014 The hornet's nest

a few days later.

Lu's compound has completely turned into a piece of flat land.

Under the guidance of the Huxian County Government, the Huxian Development Company bid [-] yuan to buy the land of the Lu Family Courtyard.

This compound was originally owned by Liang Kai, a nobleman in Hu County.

The Hu County Development Company bought it from Liang Kai for [-] guan, and Lu Mingan bought it from the Hu County Development Company for [-] guan.

Today, the land is back in the hands of the Hu County Development Company.

Out of humanitarian concern, the Hu County Development Company gave Lu Mingyu another [-] guan, so that Lu Mingyu could properly bury the dead members of the Lu clan.

This evening.

A carriage drove out of the county seat of Hu County.

In the carriage, the person sitting was Lu Mingyu.

The carriage has just entered Anhu Avenue.

He took off the filial piety clothes on his body, 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 Lu Mingyu's military adviser, Guo Zhengcheng.

On the same day, an explosion occurred in Lu's compound, and Guo Zhengcheng followed Lu Mingyu to the county government to show off his might, so he escaped.

Guo Zhengcheng looked back and looked in the direction of Huxian County, filled with emotion in his heart.

A few months ago, brothers Lu Ming'an and Lu Mingyu came to Hu County full of ambition and ambition. They wanted to develop Lu's business, but unexpectedly, the curtain call ended in a few months, and even the people disappeared.

Asked: "Master, shall we go back to Fan Yang?"

Lu Mingyu's eyes were red, swollen and bloodshot, and he said coldly, "Going back to Fan Yang at this time, what is the difference from a lost dog? Besides, if I go back at this time, even if the family spares my life, my life will be ruined, and it will never be possible again." get reused."

Fan Yang's Lu family is a wealthy family with a wealth of talents, and Lu Mingyu is a collateral lineage, so he can't afford to lose.

Guo Zhengcheng immediately understood what Lu Mingyu meant, and asked tentatively, "Master, are we determined to obtain the secret glass recipe?"

Lu Mingyu nodded affirmatively: "That's right, that little bastard Du He is arrogant and he doesn't want to cooperate with me, so I'll let him see Lu Shi's anger."

……

Hu County, the backyard of the county government.

Ma Zhou said worriedly: "Young master, are we really not going to seize the opportunity? Lu Mingyu is right, the Lu family has a lot of influence in the court, if this matter gets involved in the court, it must be because there are few people who help us, and it will be worse." There are many people."

Du He asked: "Old Ma, in your opinion, what should we do?"

Ma Zhou thought for a while, and said seriously: "Preemptively strike, before Lu's action, report the ins and outs of this matter to His Majesty in advance."

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 soldiers will block the water and cover your ears."

Du He didn't take it to heart.

……

Changan.

Imperial City.

Ministry of officials.

Gao Shilian walked into the courtyard and saw a door to the east was closed.

He turned around, came to the lobby of the Ministry of Officials with a blank face, and asked, "Why is Minister Lu not on duty? Is he sick? Is there a letter?"

The busy officials stopped what they were doing and looked towards Gao Shilian.

An official stepped forward and said: "My lord, Lu Shilang left in a hurry yesterday afternoon without telling him what happened. It's past noon today, and people who haven't seen him, do you want to send someone to the Lu residence to ask? "

Gao Shilian pondered for a while, then waved his hands: "No need, just let him go, alas!"

He sighed.

Immediately, all the officials of the official department sighed.

Lu Mingyou is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and one of the most important officials of the imperial court. He was born in the Lu family of Fanyang, and he is also the largest official of the Lu family in the court.

Lu Mingyou is different from Lu Mingan and Lu Mingyu, he is the true direct descendant of the Lu family.

The Lu Ming'an brothers are in charge of Lu's business in the capital.

Lu Mingyu, on the other hand, runs the officialdom.

The two cannot be compared in the same breath.

But now, the Lu family has had a major incident in Hu County, so of course Lu Mingyou couldn't sit still.

Lu Mingyou left in a hurry yesterday afternoon and has not shown up until now. Everyone knows what he is going to do.

Someone couldn't help but said: "Du He killed it today, he killed all of Lu's clansmen in Hu county. This is killing people all over the family. Isn't he afraid of being punished by heaven?"

Others said: "Lord Zhou, don't talk nonsense. It is said that Lu Ming'an made gunpowder privately. The gunpowder exploded and wiped out the whole family. It has nothing to do with Du He!"

"Bah, this is what the county government of Huxian County said, do you believe it? You think, the Lu family is a famous family in the world, with how much wealth they have, making gunpowder is a conspiracy, and the Lu family has a hundred guts Besides, why don’t you choose to make gunpowder in a remote place like the deep mountains, but in the county seat of Hu County, or in your own backyard? Isn’t this stupid? Now, even the people know it, Lu Shi was framed by Du He's design, following Du He's way..."

"Oh, don't tell me, Du He is ruthless and merciless, but this plan is perfectly arranged, even Lu Ming'an and Lu Mingyu and other ruthless people have been fooled, good plan, good plan!"

"Yes, yes, Du He is indeed full of tricks!"

At first, everyone condemned Du He.

But later, some people actually began to praise Du He, of course it was a derogatory compliment.

"Cough cough cough..."

Gao Shilian was listening, but suddenly he couldn't help coughing.

"Okay, everyone, there is no conclusion on this matter yet, so please don't talk about it, and just do what you have to do."

"Yes!"

Everyone agreed.

When Gao Shilian turned to leave, everyone started talking again.

"Hey, this little thief Du He, it's over this time!"

"Isn't it? Fan Yang Lu's family is listed among the five surnames and seven surnames. When it comes to official influence, financial resources, and manpower, let alone Du He, even the eldest grandson's family should be afraid of three points. Du He is so good. Lu Ming'an's family has been wiped out, how can the Lu family just sit idly by, Du He is just waiting to accept Lu's wrath!"

"That's right, Du He thinks he has a dream group, and married two princesses, so he's defiant. He doesn't know that this time he has offended someone who shouldn't be offended. Even if His Majesty favors him, but facing Lu, His Majesty may not be able to do it again. Favoring Duho."

To put it bluntly, just one sentence: Du He is over.

……

Ministry of War.

Li Junxian hurried into the room of Hou Junji, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, looked around and said in a low voice: "Lord Hou, the secret guards have heard the news, Minister Lu of the Ministry of Officials, Wang Yuanwailang of your Ministry of War, and Many officials in the court are gathering in the Lu residence at this moment, and they are probably plotting something that is not good for Du He. Look, do you want to report this matter 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 stabbed a hornet's nest this time. Even His Majesty cannot save him. What he has offended is not only the Lu family, but the family of the whole world. , even the royal family wanted to give them some face, but Du He was lucky, not only didn't give face, but also slapped Lu's face severely. There must be a good show in the court tomorrow!"
