Chapter 897: Lu Clan Assembly

My lord, there are a lot of scholars in Fanyang County, and Shilin, which is represented by scholars, is also a force that we should strive for. Liu Ziming was a little dissatisfied with what Wang Junlin had just said about the importance of businessmen and craftsmen, but he didn't know how to refute it, so he reminded Wang Junlin of the importance of scholars.

Wang Junlin shook his head and said: "The Lu family is a thousand-year-old Confucian family, and the so-called Shilin in Fanyang County is actually the Lu Academy, and the head of the Lu family, Lu Wei, is the controller of this force, so I never thought that these people who speak by mouth can be won over, of course, this is not impossible, maybe you can fight for it at the right time, after all, it is still very good for a scholar to use it to govern the place with a little training." ”

……

……

Wang Junlin said that the Lu family accounted for the largest piece of cake in Fanyang County is well-founded, just take the field that people care about the most in this era, the Lu family or the Lu family occupies nearly half of the fertile land in Fanyang County, and according to the regulations of the Great Sui, the people with lords and the good land from the officials above the fifth grade do not need to be taxed, these two conditions Lu naturally own, so there is no tax on this half of the fertile land in Fanyang County, from this point of view, no wonder Yang Guang hates the family of the gate valve in the world to death.

In fact, as a thousand-year-old family, the Lu family can be among the seven sects and five surnames, not only hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land, but also hundreds of staff guests under his disciples alone, and thousands of various guards and vassals...... The wealth accumulated for thousands of years has long since reached the level of a rich country.

……

……

When Wang Junlin left Changxiang County for the county seat, there were less than ten days left before the Chinese New Year.

For the Fan Yang Lu clan, there has always been a custom that has been passed down for nearly a thousand years in the month of the New Year, that is, a clan meeting must be held every year before the New Year.

At the general meeting presided over by the Lu clan, the heads of each side of the small sects will come to participate in the gathering banquet, congratulate the Lu clan patriarch, and celebrate the New Year.

On this day, the ancestral house of the Lu family, located in Zhuo County, Fanyang County, is pleasant to the ear and the wine is intoxicating.

Lu Wen, who was over sixty years old, was still full of red face, and his spirit was not inferior to that of a person in his forties and fifties, and after he personally presided over the complicated Confucian rituals and sacrificed to his ancestors, after the elders and descendants of the sect, as well as the masters of the small sects, found their places and sat down, he waved his hand to let all the servants in the hall that could accommodate hundreds of people retreat, and then sighed, his eyes swept over everyone, and said: "Fellow clansmen, I just got the news that the grandson of the old man, Cheng Jiandong of Changxiang County, has been beheaded by Wang Jun in front of tens of thousands of people. ”

Lu Wei's expression was calm when he said this, and people couldn't feel the pain of losing his own grandson, but the masters of the small sects who were familiar with him knew that it was the unfathomable city of the sect master that kept him silent.

There were still many people in the lobby who didn't know the news before, and after hearing it, they were taken aback and started talking about it.

"Father, that Wang Junlin is so bold that he dares to kill our Lu family, does he want to die?" Sitting in the front seat, a man who looked to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old said with a domineering face.

This person is the youngest of Lu Wei's twelve sons, named Lu Youde, and he is also his favorite one, and like many families in history, the most favored one is also the most unproductive. The people of the entire Fanyang County know that Lu Youde is the biggest gentleman in Fanyang County, he is arrogant and domineering, and he does a lot of things to bully men and women.

"Shut up, you know what." Lu Wei screamed, blowing his beard and glaring angrily, becoming more and more disappointed in this little son day by day.

Lu Youde didn't know what he said wrong, and he was unconvinced, but he didn't dare to talk back to his father in front of the masters of various small sects, so he sat down with a disapprehensive face, drinking alone.

"Grandfather, when Wang Junlin was in Gu'an County, he was kind and gentle to me and Jianbo, why did he suddenly go on a killing spree in Changxiang County." Lu Jianqiao, the governor of Gu'an County, stood up and saluted Lu Wei respectfully with a puzzled expression, and then said.

Lu Wei snorted coldly and said, "Youwei, you tell everyone what's going on." ”

Lu Youwei, the second son of Lu Wei, who had watched a thousand cavalry besiege and kill Wang Junlin at the head of Gu'an County and Lu Jianqiao, stood up, first saluted Lu Wei meticulously, and said, "Yes! Father! ”

Then Lu Youwei turned around and said to the more than 100 core people of the Lu clan in the audience: "Wang Junlin killed not Jiandong alone in Changxiang County, but also Changxiang County Commander, Du Wei, and County Lieutenant, and it was not killed at will, including Jiandong, he took out evidence that the four people violated the Great Sui Decree, and the crimes committed by the four people did reach the level of being beheaded according to the Great Sui Decree. In Gu'an County, the errand Jianbo and Jianqiao, as well as the Gu'an County Ordinance, did not violate these laws and regulations that could be beheaded......"

When everyone heard this, they were in an uproar, and there were many discussions, all of them were the core figures of the Lu family, such as the Lu family, the power and financial resources and the number of people included in the thousand-year-old family were already comparable to the world's top 100 enterprises in later generations, and the competition was equally fierce, except for people such as Lu Youde, who were born to be the sons of the sect master, other people who could become elders or the masters of a small sect were all human spirits, and their minds would definitely not be bad, Wang Junlin's move suddenly made them unable to start a counterattack, after all, compared to them when Wang Junlin came to find a thousand cavalry to surround and kill, Wang Junlin used the law of the Great Sui to kill the Lu family, and it was not only clever.

After Lu Youwei waited for everyone to digest what he said, he said: "Wang Junlin summoned the people of Changxiang County and publicized the evil things they had done in Jiandong in public, which has won the favor of the people of Changxiang County, and he subdued Feng Xiaoyong, the five hundred lord of Changxiang County, and promoted him to be the captain, which can be regarded as a preliminary control of 1,000 county soldiers. ”

When many people present heard this, their brows immediately frowned, and many people had already realized the power of Wang Junlin's methods, and a small sect master immediately said: "Second son, what is the reaction of several nobles in Changxiang County?" ”

Lu Youwei's expression was gloomy, he smiled bitterly, and said: "This is exactly what I want to say, he asked several nobles in Changxiang County to participate in the beheading of the four people in Jiandong throughout the process, and asked several nobles to each push a descendant to serve as a scribe and retinue by Wang Junlin's side. ”

"A cunning thief, such a ruthless method."

"Several nobles in Changxiang County can't believe it anymore."

"Sect Master, you should send someone to warn these families in Changxiang County, and I don't think they dare to disobey our Lu family."

……

……

Lu Youwei did not further explain and analyze, but just said what happened, but most of the people in the audience immediately saw the danger and Wang Junlin's clever methods, but their reaction was still in Wang Jun's calculations yesterday, and began to suspect several nobles in Changxiang County, and clearly expressed suspicion and suspicion against them, and some hardliners even said that they would retaliate.
