Chapter 490: Funeral

In Qinyang City, with the 50,000 horses secretly sent back by Wu Wei in place, Zhang Yu finally couldn't hold back his mood and was ready to make a move on Zhang Shumo!

"God help me! Captain Wu's trick of darkness Chen Cang really solved my urgent need, with soldiers, I can deal with Zhang Shumo! Zhang Yu said excitedly.

Xu Yi hurriedly said on the side: "Childe, do you want the old man to repair a book and summon Zhang Shumo to Beijing to attend Zhang Lu's funeral?" ”

When Zhang Yu heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Xu Yi, before Xue Liang and his party slipped away very strangely, and now Xu Yi offered to write a letter to Zhang Shumo, isn't it clear that he wants to tell Zhang Shumo about his deployment?

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu waved his hand to Xu Yi: "Don't bother the teacher about these things, tomorrow I will announce Zhang Lu's death, and explain that the funeral will be held in seven days, Zhang Shumo will definitely come when he gets the news, otherwise he will end up with an unfilial reputation." ”

When Xu Yi heard this, he hurriedly said: "Will it be too nervous in seven days, even if it is used to express the information in eight hundred miles, the time is only barely enough, the old man is afraid that Zhang Shumo will not be able to come!" ”

"Humph! It's his business whether he comes or not, what does it have to do with me! As long as he dares not to attend Zhang Lu's funeral, and Zhang Lu died at the hands of Lou Guang, then the country will definitely criticize Zhang Shumo, and he will become a rat crossing the street, how can he rob me of the throne? Zhang Yu laughed proudly after speaking.

Xu Yi was still a little worried in his heart, but he saw that Zhang Yu was so confident, and it was not easy to ruin his interest, so he had to give up.

On the second day, the palace was bleak, and the plain brocade and white silk hung under the beams and pillars of the eaves, and the voices of the subordinates even lowered a lot.

Zhang Yu summoned hundreds of civil and military officials, announced Zhang Lu's death in front of everyone, and attributed the cause of Zhang Lu's death to Lou Guang. When the hundred officials heard this, they immediately asked Lou Guang Lingchi to be executed, but Zhang Yu refused. Zhang Yu was not kind, because he understood that Lou Guang was Lou Zaiying's only relative, and it would be useful in the future if he kept his mouth alive.

Soon Zhang Yu announced that Zhang Lu's funeral would be held in seven days, and asked to be buried according to the emperor's specifications. There is no objection to this.

After announcing the funeral, Wu Ang, as a representative of the officials, stood up and said: "The country cannot be left without an owner for a day, and now that our country is worried about internal and external troubles, we should be a person with both ability and political integrity to lead everyone out of the predicament." Zhang Yu is the son of Lord Zhang Lu, who has read poetry and books since he was a child, and has both ability and political integrity. ”

As soon as these words came out, the children of the martial arts family responded one after another. Xu Yi and other Zhang Yu's henchmen naturally had no objections, only those officials who were not yet aware of the situation were observing the situation.

Many people set their eyes on Cai Dao, the patriarch of the Three Dynasties, Cai Dao has served three emperors, and he is a high authority, as long as he nods, others naturally dare not have opinions. It's just that this Zhang Lu is not called the emperor, although Zhang Yu is Zhang Lu's son, but according to the etiquette, he should not be called the emperor. Now although Wu Ang has recommended Zhang Yu, after all, this situation has never occurred in history, how can an emperor be recommended?

Of course, Cai Dao knew that the other officials were waiting for him to make a statement, so he stood up with a slight smile: "Lord Wu Ang's words are right, the country cannot be left without an owner for a day, but the bones of the first emperor are still in the south, and Lord Zhang Lu's bones are not cold, and establishing the throne now will inevitably be ridiculed by the world The people who cherish the country do not understand etiquette." According to the old man, it is better to let Zhang Yu Gongzi act as Lord Zhang Lu to take charge of the affairs of our country, and let the matter of ascending the throne go first. ”

Waiting for Cai Dao to express his position, others responded one after another. Zhang Yu saw it in his eyes and was angry in his heart. I didn't expect that I would still be put on a role by Cai Zhi in the end, and I knew that I should have said that Cai Zhi was Lou Guang's comrade that day, and the Cai family was eliminated together!

can be angry, Zhang Yu didn't dare to disobey Cai Dao's intentions, and had to say modestly with a smiling face: "Thank you for your love, it's just that the kid is only a shallow learner, and I'm afraid it's still difficult to be in charge of the affairs of a country, so don't embarrass the boy anymore." ”

Xu Yi hurriedly stood up and said: "Childe was surprised by this, since ancient times, heroes have been teenagers, and now it is a troubled time, and Childe has both ability and political integrity, when he is entrusted with a heavy responsibility, please don't shirk it anymore!" ”

Baiguan immediately chimed in: "Please don't shirk it anymore." ”

Zhang Yu smiled with satisfaction, and then gave a big salute to the hundred officials: "In the past few days, you have been so trustworthy, then it is better to be respectful than to obey!" ”

After the court, many officials came to Cai Dao's home. On the day that Qinyang City cleared the streets, the officials were like a mirror in their hearts, Zhang Lu was killed by Lou Guang, and most of them were killed by Zhang Yu. Baiguan naturally couldn't let an unloyal and unfilial person be the emperor of Huaiguo, but because Zhang Yu had military power in his hands, he didn't dare to resist, so he came to discuss with Cai Dao.

"Lord Cai, Lord Xue Liang's family disappeared silently after the last incident, Lord Cai is Xue Liang's father-in-law, do you know where he went?" Officials asked.

Cai Wei sighed: "That day, Xue Liang fled with his family, and the old man heard that he went to Zhang Shumo. ”

"So, it was really Zhang Yu who killed Lord Zhang Lu that day?"

"Be careful! Just talk about it here, don't talk about it outside. Cai Dao quickly interrupted the officials.

Everyone fell silent when they heard this, and after a long time, Cai Dao said helplessly: "I know your intention to come to my house, but now people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat, so I have to bow my head." If things turn around, I will take the lead in getting rid of that unfaithful and unfilial person. ”

At this moment, Cai Rao said in a panic: "Father, Wu Tai of the Wu family is asking to see you outside the door. ”

"Wu Tai? Who is he? Why haven't I heard of this person? ”

"Wu Tai is a side branch of the martial arts family and serves in the Yiyang army. Later, because of the Northwest Zhuzhang Shumo's defeat of Jingguo, he was promoted and returned to Kyoto, but his official position was not high, so his father naturally would not have heard of him. Cai Rao explained.

Cai Dao narrowed his eyes after hearing this, and then immediately asked the officials present to avoid it, and then let Wu Tai in.

"Wu Tai has seen Lord Cai!"

"General Wu came to find the old man, I don't know why?"

Wu Tai looked around, then lowered his voice and said, "There is a letter from the deceased who dragged it down and handed it to the adult. ”

Cai Dao raised his eyebrows, and then asked Cai Rao to take the letter. Then Cai Dao opened the envelope and looked at it, but his eyes widened when he looked at it: "Is this serious?" ”。

"It's true!"

Cai Wei stood up violently when he heard this: "This kind of rebellious thing will not be done by the old man!" Speaking of this, Cai Dao's tone softened again: "You go back with the letter, the old man is old, I don't want to toss anymore, the old man is just like you haven't come!" ”
