Mingshi

Chapter 976 Persuasion
Lu Yi suddenly felt that he couldn't see Luo Xin clearly in the carriage, and his heart became even more flustered.At this time, he felt that everything around him was so dangerous, it seemed that only by Luo Xin's side could he have a little bit of safety.He jumped off the horse, opened the carriage, jumped into the carriage, knelt down in front of Luo Xin and said:

"Lord Luo, it's just me."

Luo Xin stretched out his hand to close the car door, and then closed the car window.The light in the car became even darker.In the darkness, Luo Xin stared at Lu Yi who was kneeling in front of him and said:

"I can help you, but you are the only one who can really save you and the Lu family. The help of others is always limited to the word help, and cannot play a decisive role."

Lu Yi knelt there straight, but the expression on his face gradually changed. Although there was still panic and panic in his eyes, there was more thought and calmness in his eyes.Looking at Luo Xin, he said with a trembling voice:
"I understand. Even if Master Luo can help me once or twice, he can't help me for a lifetime. And there will be times when he can't help if he wants to."

A look of admiration appeared on Luo Xin's face, and he thought to himself: "As expected of a member of the Lu family. Lu Bing is not as simple as being the child of Emperor Jiajing. Do you think it is easy to become the child of Emperor Jiajing? No With a certain identity and background, can I get in touch with Emperor Jiajing and become his playmate?
That's simply not possible!
The Lu family has a history of being an official for hundreds of years, and the history of the family is even longer than that of Ming Dynasty.Countless generations have been passed down, even if they are dudes of the Lu family, their vision and determination are not comparable to that of ordinary people. "

"Maybe Lu Yi can still support him, even if he can't be as famous as his father Lu Bing, can he become a new force?"

Luo Xin stretched out his hand to help Lu Yi up, let him sit in the carriage, and said in a soft voice:

"how do you want to do it?"

Lu Yi shook his head and said: "I am in a panic now, and I can't think of a way at all. Please help me, sir."

"I will help you." Luo Xin said calmly: "But, you have to remember that many things need to be done by yourself, and the road needs to be walked by yourself. Your father passed away. As the eldest son of the Lu family, you are Lu The pillar of the family. The Lu family will be revived because of you alone, or they will survive, or they will be ruined, or even destroyed."

"I see!"

At this time, Lu Yi had gradually calmed down, and a kind of calmness and brilliance of a child of an aristocratic family gradually appeared on him, but those eyes looked at Lu Yi full of expectation.

The more sober he was, the more Lu Yi admired Luo Xin.Think about Luo Xin's growth process, a person without any family background, such a young person, a person who was once made things difficult by Yan Song, Xu Jie, and even Emperor Jiajing, can still be as stable as Mount Tai, and walk to such a position.

As Lu Bing's eldest son, he also served in Jinyiwei. Lu Bing did not hide many things from himself as the eldest son, so Lu Yi was very clear about Luo Xin's growth process.It's just that he didn't think that Luo Xin was better than him before, but now after Lu Bing's death, he suddenly discovered that he was really nothing. He was so successful in the past, but it was others who gave Lu Bing face, not How good he is.Looking at Luo Xin again, at this moment he already understood that he and Luo Xin are too far apart, at least for now, he is not as good as Luo Xin at all.Thinking of what his father had said to him, he already felt dependent on Luo Xin, like a junior, and whispered:

"I just want to ask my lord to point out a clear path for the Lu family and me today."

Luo Xin nodded and said, "Will you listen to me?"

"Ken!" Lu Yi nodded firmly.

"Open the coffin for autopsy." Luo Xin said calmly.

"Open the coffin for autopsy?" Lu Yi changed color, but the reaction was not as strong as before.

"Yes!" Luo Xin nodded and said, "Judging from the current situation, since the Fourth Concubine and the Eighth Concubine had accidents, it is [-]% possible to speculate that the governor was killed by poison."

"Then why open the coffin for an autopsy?"

Although Lu Yi was angry at this time, after what happened just now, he had subconscious fear and dependence on Luo Xin, so he was able to suppress the anger in his heart.

"I've said it just now, but that's speculation. Neither you nor I have evidence." Luo Xin said lightly, "The current situation of the Lu family is very dangerous. In this situation, what the Lu family should do is not to be arrogant, It's about being wronged and making people feel sympathetic to the situation of the Lu family.

During his lifetime, the governor was sincere and treated literati and nobles kindly. This is the advantage of the Lu family.The governor died, but Chen Hong from Dongchang bullied the Lu family, and the current Jinyiwei has not found out the reason for the death of the governor, so it makes people feel that the Lu family is using the death of the governor to ask for favor from His Majesty .Once this reputation is confirmed, the Lu family will not be far from decline.

Therefore, at present, it is not important whether we find out the culprit who killed the governor. What is important is to produce definite evidence that the governor was killed.If the coffin is opened for autopsy and evidence of the death of the governor is found, a large number of literati Guixun will sympathize.

Although they didn't say it before, they probably suspected that your Lu family was taking advantage of the death of the governor to invite His Majesty's favor.However, after the coffin was opened for autopsy, it was found that the governor was really killed.This kind of contrast will make them feel guilty in their hearts. With this kind of guilt, they will not only stop embarrassing the Lu family, but will also extend their hands to help.This is the hope of your Lu family's rise. "

"But... what if no evidence is found after the autopsy is opened?"

Luo Xin glanced at him indifferently and said: "I said that it is [-]% certain that the governor was killed. Besides, don't you think so? Otherwise, what do you want me for?"

"But...but... I'm afraid I won't be able to find out!"

Luo Xin was silent for a moment and said: "This is a gamble. Lu Yi, you have to remember. Gambling is everywhere in life, especially in officialdom. As long as you are [-]% sure, you can attack. Otherwise, you will be one step behind , not lagging behind. If you are still so hesitant and not decisive enough, you better change the helm of your Lu family."

"Then... what if you lose the bet?"

Luo Xin sighed and said: "The light ones have no possibility to make progress, the serious ones die in depression, and what's more, the family is ruined."

"Then... why do you want to gamble?"

"Because even if you don't gamble, the environment you live in is dangerous and precarious. Either you wait for your family to die, or you fight desperately.

Although your Lu family will not be ruined immediately, it will be eaten away by people from all walks of life like a frog boiled in warm water.Just like when I was in the southeast, if I didn't do anything, I would be dismissed from office.Therefore, it is not easy to be a helmsman. He not only needs sharp eyes, careful thinking, but also decisive means. "
