Chapter 408 Informed
"Lu Shuo?"
Gao Zhuo stretched out his voice, "Huh". Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"That's right, my lord, it is Lu Shuo, the second son of the Jingguo Mansion, who is also the person who will be used as a reference for this test. ā
Of course, this person Gao Zhuo knows.
At the beginning, because of the dispute with Lu Shuo, Gao Yan was beaten by Emperor Hui Chong.
"This Lu Gongzi is a person who understands!"
Before Gao Zhuo could speak, Mr. Jing beside him had his eyes lit up and exclaimed.
"yes!"
Mr. Xia also smiled and agreed.
"We have been covering up Lord Lu's affairs before, this Lu Shuo is good, he directly revealed everything, and he is so subtle that people can't see anything wrong, it's really thoughtful...... In this way, the people will all shift their attention to the dozen or so scholars, maybe the saint will be the same, suspecting that someone has ulterior motives to deliberately provoke, and then more investigation, Lord Lu's suspicion can be lifted......"
These words can be regarded as speaking to Gao Zhuo's heart.
Whether you admit it or not, Lu Shuo's behavior today is indeed a good chess.
Merely......
āā¦ā¦ This Lu family has always been Prince Xuande's foreign family, although it is not as good as the Zhou and Cai families, but they are also closely related, why didn't this Lu Shuo help the prince, but helped us?"
Mr. Jing asked the doubts in his heart at the right time.
He was not alone in this doubt, Gao Zhuo also had the same idea.
"It's not easy...... Regardless of whether we deal with it or not, but Lord Lu is the president of this examination, I heard that Lu Shuo was in the examination hall that was on fire, and Lord Lu said to Lu Shuo that he was a life-saving benefactor, and it was natural to make a contribution to his benefactor this time, there is nothing to doubt!"
Mr. Xia shook his head, with a look of course on his face.
Is that really the case?
Mr. Jing hesitated.
Gao Zhuo frowned, with affirmation.
"Not so ......," he affirmed.
With that, he sighed.
Both Mr. Xia and Mr. Jing looked at him.
Could it be that there is another reason?
"In the past few years, Lu Yunguan has become bigger and bigger, and he has become more and more embarrassed in front of the saint, it can be said that the tide is rising, and he is no longer the insignificant Lu Mansion he used to be...... But look at it, what is the relationship between the prince and the Lu Mansion?"
How's the relationship?
Mr. Xia and Mr. Jing glanced at each other.
lukewarm, kept at a distance.
Thinking of this, the two suddenly understood.
Gao Zhuo said: "...... It's not that Prince Xuande doesn't want to use their Lu Mansion, according to Lu Yun's current ability, if it is used by any party, it will be a big help! Lu Mansion obviously doesn't want to have anything to do with the Prince's Mansion, this is to avoid suspicion!"
"But how can they avoid suspicion in this relationship?"
Mr. Xia waved his hand, his face very confused.
"I can't say, this is also the reason for Lu Shuo's behavior today. ā
Gao Zhuo's face sank, with a categorical affirmation.
In order to draw a line with the Prince's Mansion?
To remain neutral?
Mr. Xia and Mr. Jing were silent for a long time, but Gao Zhuo seemed happy.
"No matter what, if the Lu Mansion decides to draw a line with the crown prince, it will be a good thing for us!"
"yes!"
Mr. Jing agreed, "It's also the prince himself who has lost the hearts of the people, he doesn't know how to win over, he has gone too far in the past, and the Lu Mansion is also a century-old family, how can he endure it......"
Several people discussed this matter, and finally came to the conclusion that it was a good thing for the Lu Mansion to draw a clear line with the crown prince, and whether or not the Lu Mansion could be drawn into their camp or not, it would be beneficial to them.
After talking for a while, the topic turned to Lord Lu again.
Mr. Jing and Mr. Xia analyzed Emperor Hui Chong's attitude towards Lu Shixin at this time, and finally asked, "What do you think of Lord Lu?"
Gao Zhuo smiled, "What should we do? Didn't that kid Lu Shuo already show us the way? Hmph, who arranged those moves, we all know clearly, now that Lu Shuo has made it clear, then we don't have to delay, early tomorrow morning, we will send a few officials to start from these moves, and there is no need to mention Lord Lu, just say that their sinister intentions, although the Holy Lord has suspicions about Lord Lu, it is not deep, and it is easy to dispel...... It would be great if I could touch the melons along the vine and find out Cai Shaoyu as well......"
The people who know you best are often your enemies.
Who arranged these lifts, Gao Zhuo knew who it was when he thought about it with his knees.
The prince is now aggressive, and if he doesn't leave them a way to live, then they don't have to scruple about it, just do it!
"Yes!"
The people below, including the two gentlemen, listened to Gao Zhuo's words, and their faces were solemn, and they agreed.
ā¦ā¦
There were people coming and going on the street, and it coincided with the market, and the carriage of the Lu family was extremely slow, and it took a while before it finally stopped in front of the drunken guest building.
The coachman stopped the car, Lu Shuo came down with Qingquan, went directly to the second floor, and when he arrived at the agreed room, he banged on the door.
"Come in ......"
Zhou Mao's voice is still like a gentle drizzle, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.
Lu Shuo walked in, the two exchanged a few words, Lu Shuo made a look, and the people waiting in the room all went down.
Talking alone?
This was rare in the past.
Zhou Mao was puzzled, he couldn't figure out what medicine was sold in Lu Shuo's gourd, and couldn't help but stare at him with a frown.
Lu Shuo didn't feel uncomfortable at all, let him look at it for a while, and he himself stepped forward and closed the door, took out a flat big purse from his sleeve, and threw it on the table.
"It's ......"
Zhou Mao looked at the purse and looked at Lu Shuo with doubt.
"Open it and take a look!"
He said, his face solemn, and then he picked up the teacup and drank it with a clatter.
Zhou Mao didn't know what to do, but he still opened his purse according to his instructions.
Inside were a few pieces of paper, folded into a thick stack, which looked very weighty.
Zhou Mao unfolded them one by one, swept his eyes, and then widened all of a sudden.
"It's ......"
His voice grew agitated.
Without waiting for Lu Shuo to answer, he continued to look down, and for a long time, when there was no movement in the room and the air seemed to be stagnant, Zhou Mao finally put down the things in his hand in a gloomy manner.
"These ...... It's all true?"
Lu Shuo nodded, with a look of affirmation, still very serious.
"It's true, it's all true, the names on it are all people who bought officials from Uncle Zhou, and the four institutes have written them down one by one, and there is no mistake!"
Zhou Mao listened, and the shock on his face could no longer be hidden.
When he reacted like this, Lu Shuo had already thought of it.
Lu Shuo patted him on the shoulder, not knowing what words to comfort him.
In any case, what Zhou Liangfu did was ironclad, and he was really a moth-like character.
Even if he and Zhou Mao are iron buddies, in the face of such a principled issue, he can't let him say things against his will.
