Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 1132: Observe one thing and ignore one thing, there is a hidden meaning

"This is to attack the family!"

Suddenly, the situation has gradually become clearer. Even the dullest person can see that at least one of these two pieces of news directly targets the family!
For a moment, all the aristocratic families inside and outside Ji County, and even the entire Youzhou, couldn't hold back their thoughts. If it were before, they wouldn't have had too many scruples at all. After noticing that all the aristocratic families had changed, the next step would definitely be Join forces and put pressure together.

But now they dare not.

"When the general returns this time, although most of the soldiers and horses are stationed in Bingzhou, there are still thousands of Xuanjia who have returned with him. In addition to the 2 people who originally stayed in Youzhou, as well as Zhang Fang's soldiers who are returning, the entire Youzhou Up and down, we can pull out at least [-] mysterious armored soldiers!"

In Lu Zhi's house, a young man was explaining the situation in front of this important official of the general's house.

This man is Lu Zhi's son Lu Shen, who has just returned from Pingzhou.

In addition to Lu Zhi, there are several people sitting here. They are all white-haired and look very young. They are all elders of the Lu family.

Together with Lu Zhi, they can be said to be the backbone of the Lu family in Youzhou today.

"Thirty thousand Xuanjia troops, what concept can you elders imagine?"

Then one person asked: "What kind of concept is this? In the past, I accompanied Dinghou on the southern expedition. He used [-] troops to fight against [-] barbarians, and he was able to win a great victory!"

"This is exactly the truth!" Lu Shen nodded and said seriously, "The majestic heavenly army is established with etiquette, practiced with laws, and well ordered. It is invincible in attack, and the power of the Xuanjia Army is even greater than that of the regular soldiers of the imperial court. , Thirty thousand soldiers are enough to destroy the Xiongnu country, not to mention my Youzhou family?"

Lu Zhi looked serious and said: "You went to Pingzhou this time because you were ordered to contact Governor Deng. What did you learn from his mouth?"

"Deng Inspector also said that the power of the Xuanjia army is hard to match, so if we face the front of the Xuanjia army, we are determined to be irresistible. Therefore, if it is true what those families said, we will contact the people around us at this time. If you want to take advantage of some of the Xuanjia soldiers stationed in Bingzhou to raise troops to cause chaos, you are simply seeking death!" Lu Shen sarcastically said.

What he was talking about was the reaction of the family to the news that started to spread through private channels. Someone actually proposed to launch an army to persecute.

"I am very suspicious of the source of this news," Lu Shen continued after noticing the thoughtful expressions on the faces of several elders. "This matter is most likely a message secretly released by the Secret Service to see if any aristocratic families take the bait. Once you express interest, I'm afraid you will be on that roster and there will be no hope of success, so we must not follow this."

"But now that the general has made it clear that he is ready to take action, what will happen if we just endure it?" One man couldn't help but speak, his words full of sorrow, "I'm afraid the butcher's knife is about to fall."

"Then we have to use other methods to see if we can get a glimpse of life." As Lu Shen spoke, he pointed outside the courtyard, "Isn't there an altar erected outside our city? It is said that the man who once served the late emperor Father-in-law Mo'anjie lives there now, and the general has sent people to greet him several times and wanted to entertain him, but Moanjie turned him down, saying that he wanted to see you again on the day of the sacrifice, and maybe we can go over and pay him a visit."

When Lu Zhi heard this, he understood and nodded: "Yes, the general has always respected the late emperor. This extermination of the Xiongnu country was caused by the late emperor! Now, in Youzhou, no one dares to refuse The general, except the old eunuch, refused several times, but the general was not angry. He still treated him politely and spoke for him everywhere. This shows that he also respects this person. If he can get some advice from him, it may be useful. "

At this point, people from these aristocratic families really have no choice but to seek medical treatment in a hurry and make a last-ditch effort. After all, at this point, they also know that relying on force is absolutely useless. As for other means?Thinking about it, Lu Zhi couldn't help but sigh: "Speaking of which, it is said that the several disciples who were gathered together when the general went out for the expedition have not been released yet, and they don't know how long they will be imprisoned. Now they are encountered again. If you get involved in something like this, it will probably be even more difficult to get out.”

Lu Shen reminded: "This may not be a bad thing for them, otherwise the various rumors in private may have attracted these people to take action, and the consequences would be even more worrying."

"That's the case." Lu Zhi nodded, and then changed the subject, "In seven days, the altar will be built. At that time, the general will escort Zhao Ran and others there to kill them in sacrifice to the late emperor. The old eunuch must have When I come forward, I will wait to meet with him beforehand, pass on my ideas, and see if he can help."

An old man from the Lu family said: "Although Mo Anjie is not from a wealthy family, he received favors from aristocratic families when he was young. I believe he will know the truth about lips dying and teeth falling cold. It would be good to get in touch with him."

With the help of several elders, the matter was naturally decided. However, it was the younger generation like Lu Shen who handled the matter, but he was also happy to do it. The next morning after receiving the instructions, he Went to the altar outside the city.

Seeing this, Lu Shen was also quite surprised. When he left, the altar had not been built yet, it was just an outline. When he came back this time, it was almost complete. The speed was really amazing.

However, what surprised him even more was the person coming and going——

Not only the common people, but also many children from aristocratic families came over. After asking a few familiar people, Lu Shen couldn't help but smile bitterly. Seven or eight of the ten had the same purpose as him, and they all came to see him. That old eunuch's.

"Brother Lu, are you also here to see Mr. Mo? This is difficult to handle. I wonder if you can enter the palace today." The acquaintance said a few words and was called over by his relatives.

Lu Shen couldn't help but frown, thinking about how to meet Mo Anjie.

As a result, before any action was taken, the crowd suddenly became commotion. A group of children from aristocratic families were in an uproar, but many people also cheered.

"What's wrong?" When Lu Shen saw this, he asked his casual servant to go over and find out the news.

The servant ran over in a hurry, and after asking around, he ran back huffing and puffing. His head was sweating, but he didn't care to wipe it off, so he said to his master: "The little ones have been found out. It was said that a list was posted in the city, and the 'Grand Imperial Examination' was to be held. Several aristocratic families got the news and came to report it and told the contents, so the crowd was surprised."

"Is it about the imperial examination? But the civil examination?" Lu Shen immediately thought of the second news that had spread widely in the past two days. In the past few days, the aristocratic families in Youzhou had focused their attention on the assassination, fearing that it would be affected. In fact, not many people pay attention to the great literary examination.

"Tell me carefully, what is the content of the imperial examination?"

Suddenly, Lu Shen's heart skipped a beat, realizing that he and his clan might have overlooked something.
