Chapter 344
The second letter was naturally addressed to Wang Hong, the household servant.

Although the imperial court's money and food are all allocated by the Ministry of War, if the Ministry of Households plays tricks in it, it will also delay time.

Moreover, to communicate with Wang Hong in advance, so that he can remind the emperor.

Lest the emperor have to delay again.

After finishing writing, Jiang Chengxiao naturally asked Ji Yun to hand it over to his confidant, and let him send it to Luoyang quickly.

Just as he put down his pen, someone came outside.

"My lord, the person who came here is a servant of Fan Yang's Lu family, and he said that he has something to ask to see the lord." Nan Jiyun said.

"Fan Yang's Lu family?" Jiang Chengxiao was startled for a moment, and then said, "Let him in."

When thinking of the Lu family, the first thing Jiang Chengxiao thought of was the wealth of the Lu family. When Lu Mingyue was suppressed, the Lu family took out [-] shi of grain to help the victims.

Tsk tsk tsk, big dog!
In addition, Jiang Chengxiao also remembered what Zhao Wang said.

In any case, he will go to Yuyang County next stop, and dealing with Lu's family will definitely be indispensable at that time.

The servant sent by the Lu family is named Lu San, a short and thin young man.

"Villain Lu San, see His Royal Highness Liang Wang."

When they came, the head of the family reminded them ten thousand times that they should not be less polite, so as not to make people look down on their tutor of Fan Yang Lu family.

Therefore, Lu San's etiquette is meticulous.

"No." Jiang Chengxiao pushed the inkstone on the table and asked, "Did Lu Gong send you here for something?"

Lu San bowed and said: "Reporting to Your Highness, the master said that the people of Yuyang County were deeply harassed by Yanshan bandits and suffered unspeakably. I implore Your Highness to go to Yuyang County to suppress the bandits as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxiao was overjoyed, and his face remained calm.

"Lu San, you have also seen that this king has just quelled the Jieshishan bandits in Beiping County, and is starting to restore the people's livelihood in Beiping County. I am waiting for the food from the imperial court to help the people of Beiping County. I really can't get away from it. .”

Lu San was taken aback for a moment, these words were undoubtedly out of line for him, he was just a messenger.

"My lord, how should a villain respond to my lord?" Lu San was at a loss.

At that time, he only thought that His Royal Highness King Liang would immediately agree to send troops after hearing the message, and then he, the leading party, would ride on a horse with tens of thousands of troops behind him.

Did not expect this to be the case.

Jiang Chengxiao chuckled, "Just repeat what I just said to your Patriarch. By the way, do you still remember what I said?"

"This villain remembers!"

"Okay then, I'll give you a horse, you go back as soon as possible."

"Yes, the villain will go now." Lu San withdrew.

After Lu San left, Nan Jiyun asked puzzledly: "My lord, didn't you already send General Yuchi to Yuyang County, why didn't you stay still?"

"What I want is to stand still." Jiang Chengxiao stood up and walked into the hall, "Jiyun, do you know why?"

"Subordinates don't know."

"Hehe, the Lu family wants me to suppress the bandits without a dime, how can there be such a good thing."

Hearing this, Nan Jiyun understood, but he was worried: "Your Highness, if the Lu family can't wait for the Lord to come forward to suppress the bandits, will they themselves recruit people to fight against the bandits?"

"It would be interesting if the Lu family really did that." Jiang Chengxiao sneered.

Stationed in Yuyang County, this is what Jiang Chengxiao had already planned.The Lu family has a big business, and Jiang Chengxiao won't give up until he comes up with something.

Furthermore, Yanshan Mountain is not Jieshi Mountain, it is a whole mountain range, if you don't know the terrain and the location of the main force of the bandits, if you attack rashly, you must be the one who suffers.

Jiang Chengxiao looked at the clouds in the west, and murmured: "The Lu family, don't let me down."

Yuyang County, Lu Family.

"He refused?" Lu Huaiyuan looked at Lu San in surprise and anger, "Please explain clearly to me, don't miss a single word!"

Lu San nodded quickly, repeating Jiang Chengxiao's words.

After finishing speaking, the three Lu brothers looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Dogs meddle in their own business with mice!" Lu Huaiyuan cursed, folded his hands, sullen.

Lu Huaishen glared at him, "It's full of nonsense, don't say such things in the future, have all the classics been read into the dog's stomach?"

Immediately, Lu Huaishen said to Lu San again: "You have worked hard all the way, go down and receive your reward."

"Thank you, master." Lu San saluted and then withdrew.

Lu Huaimo reached out and touched the incense burner, and said calmly: "I'm afraid it's an excuse."

"Isn't that nonsense? The imperial court ordered him to suppress the bandits, not to give relief to the common people. What's the matter with him staying in Beiping County now? Delaying the bandit suppression, hmph, the imperial court will definitely not let him go!" Lu Huai Yuan Road.

"Who said he was late?"

Lu Huaishen glanced at Lu Huaiyuan and said, "He can definitely cross Yuyang County and enter Zhuo County to suppress bandits."

"Ah, here." Lu Huaiyuan remained silent, being blocked by his elder brother for a while.

Lu Huaimo also frowned, this kind of thing is entirely possible.After all, King Liang is the recruitment envoy of Hebei, and it is his freedom to go to that county to suppress bandits.

"Brother, what exactly does Liang Wang mean?" Lu Huaimo looked at his brother and said, "Obviously, a large army has been dispatched, but the soldiers are still standing still. It seems that the spring planting is about to start now. If we don't suppress the bandits, the first half of the year will be wasted." , if he really loves the people like his son, it is impossible not to think of this."

Lu Huaishen said lightly, "Isn't his condition contained in that passage?"

"Words?" Lu Huaiyuan and Lu Huaimo asked at the same time.

Immediately Lu Huaimo thought about what Lu San said, and said, "Brother, King Liang wants food."

"Hmm." Lu Huaishen nodded.

Lu Huaiyuan immediately retorted: "How can this be done? Suppressing the bandits is his job. Why does he need food and ask our Lu family to ask for it by name? Why doesn't he go to Wen Daya?"

"Maybe we are being taken advantage of." Lu Huaimo sneered.

King Liang's food looks a bit ugly. Last time he was helping the victims of disasters in this county, but this time, he actually asked for food to help other counties. This is not because he treats Lu's family as a victim.

Lu Huaiyuan said: "Brother, don't talk about it, this matter is not allowed, absolutely not!"

"Yes!" Lu Huaimo also responded: "If he agrees this time, if he is still short of food next time, he will definitely attack us. This hole cannot be opened!"

Lu Huaishen closed his eyes, sandalwood lingered between his mouth and nose.

He is very old, an old man in his 60s.

Because of this, his vision is farther than that of his two younger brothers.

Opening his eyes, a pair of cloudy pupils became extremely clear.

"No, we have to promise, we must promise!"

"Big Brother!" Lu Huaiyuan and Lu Huaimo looked at Big Brother in puzzlement.

Lu Huaishen raised his hand and interrupted the two brothers, "Don't talk about this matter, it's settled like this!"

He looked at Lu Huaimo: "How much food do we have in Yuyang County?"

"Brother!" Lu Huaimo wanted to say something, but meeting Lu Huaishen's stern eyes, he still said honestly: "There are only [-] shi here, and most of the grain storage is at Fan Yang's side."

Lu Huaishen nodded lightly, "Okay, you escort the [-] stones to Yuchijing first."

Immediately afterwards, Lu Huaishen looked at Lu Huaiyuan, "Go to Fanyang, and bring back one hundred thousand shi of grain."

"One hundred thousand shi?" Lu Huaiyuan suspected that he had heard it wrong, and asked again for confirmation, "Brother, do you want me to deliver one hundred thousand shi of grain?"

"Yes, one hundred thousand stones!" Lu Huaishen warned, "Don't cheat on me, don't let me lose even a grain of grain!"

Lu Huaiyuan and Lu Huaimo thought at the same time that their elder brother was probably crazy.

"Brother, if you want to send food to King Liang, you have to explain why." Lu Huaimo said, "If you obey him like this, he will think we are easy to bully."

"That's right, brother, what is the reason for this!" Lu Huaiyuan also asked.

Lu Huaishen walked to the door with his hands behind his back.

"During the three years of Hongye, the Lu family was severely punished because of me. In the past few years, I have been thinking about one thing. What did I do wrong?"

"I haven't figured it out for years, but now I do."

Lu Huaiyuan said, "Brother, what do you understand?"

Lu Huaishen said: "I understand what to do, and I also understand why I had differences with other aristocratic families in Shandong."

"Brother, what you said is ambiguous, I don't understand at all." Lu Huaiyuan muttered.

On the contrary, Lu Huaimo understood somewhat, he looked at Lu Huaishen in surprise.

"Okay, let's go quickly, don't delay the time. If you send the food earlier, Yuyang County will restore stability sooner."
