Chapter 922: The 'Devil' in the Heart

"You don't need to be surprised, it's not difficult to guess that there are only two people in the world who can be sent by the Lu family thousands of miles away, one is His Majesty the Emperor today, and the other is the person who may become His Majesty the Emperor in the future." Wang Junlin said lightly.

Lu Youwei thought to himself, his face returned to calm, but he sighed and said, "Don't Lord Taishou believe in the sincerity of our Lu family." ”

"How do you want this official to believe in your Lu family." Wang Junlin said with a sarcastic expression: "As soon as this official came to Fanyang County, he was surrounded and killed by a thousand cavalry outside Gu'an County. And now you have two carts of silver, the title deed of 1,000 acres of fertile land, and 10% of the dry shares of the salt bank, so I want me to believe in the sincerity of your Lu family. If my Wang Junlin is so good at talking, Guan Longyu will not be buried in my hands, Qiu Fu, Yang Liang, and Gao Ying will not die in my hands, Yang Su once leaned towards the government and the opposition, and I killed two grandchildren, and in the end, I didn't dare to live because I forced him to live, and now you are running to buy me with such a little thing, do you Lu clan want to provoke me? ”

Lu Youwei didn't expect Wang Junlin to be so strong, and he actually threatened them directly with the Lu clan, and once upon a time, their Lu clan was still discussing how to threaten Wang Junlin. But when they think about it, what can they do with the king's landing?

Since Wang Junlin came to Fanyang County, he supported Cui Shijie in Gu'an County to become the county commander, and their control over Gu'an County has been much worse than before, not to mention Changxiang County, not to mention Lu Jiandong, a descendant of the Lu clan who killed them, their Lu clan has completely failed to intervene in Changxiang County.

As soon as this came, the eight counties of Fanyang County, they had lost control of the two counties, and Wang Junlin did nothing, so he forced them to cut off their arms and took the initiative to find Dou Shihai with 20,000 sailors to send people to exterminate the 5,000 pirates on Snake Island.

In short, there are all kinds of signs that their Lu clan is already in a passive situation, obviously their power in Fanyang County far exceeds that of Wang Junlin, but in the face of Wang Junlin, they have a feeling that they have no way to start.

Of course, there is such a factor as 'barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes', the Lu family's stall is too big, and after a thousand cavalry failed to besiege Wang Junlin, they did not dare to act rashly because of Wang Junlin's prestige, murderous name, poisonous name, and possible crazy revenge.

And Wang Junlin does not have any scruples when he acts in Fanyang County, the only thing that can make Wang Junlin scruple is that Fanyang County is in turmoil, but the problem is that until the end of the net, even the Lu family does not dare to incite the nobles and people of Fanyang County to cause chaos.

The thoughts in his mind turned, Lu Youwei found that what Wang Junlin said was not wrong, their Lu clan really didn't want to provoke Wang Junlin, he sighed in his heart, lowered his posture very low, and said: "If Lord Taishou has any requests, you might as well put it forward, as long as we can live in peace with our Lu clan, we will try our best to cooperate." ”

Wang Junlin looked at Lu Youwei deeply, his eyes were deep and sharp, as if he could see the depths of Lu Youwei's heart, and after a while, he said: "Second Master Lu, do you know why Your Majesty allowed the Hongnong Yang family to continue to exist, and Yang Xuangan and other Yang family disciples can continue to be officials in the court?" ”

Lu Youwei was slightly stunned, and his heartbeat instantly began to accelerate, but he took a deep breath, calmed the speculation in his heart, and said stubbornly: "The old man doesn't know, please give me advice." ”

Wang Junlin glanced at Lu Youwei sarcastically and said, "Second Master Lu doesn't dare to say it, then I'll say it for you!" Hongnong Yang can continue to exist because His Majesty thinks that as long as Yang Su is dead, His Majesty is not afraid of Yang Xuangan, let alone worried about anything. ”

Lu Youwei pretended not to understand the deep meaning of Wang Junlin's words, and asked, "What does this have to do with our Lu clan?" ”

Wang Junlin sneered and said: "Your father is a great Confucian in the world, he has won the hearts of the people in Fanyang County, and he is also the founding county prince of the Great Sui, and in the hearts of the scholars of the world, he is a general figure like a leader of Shilin, and there are many protégés inside and outside the court, but such a person is not very loyal to His Majesty, how can Your Majesty let him continue to live." ”

Lu Youwei forcibly suppressed the inexplicable agitation in his heart, lowered his head and said, "My father has never had the intention of rebellion. ”

Wang Junlin didn't bother to guess Lu Youwei's psychological state at this time, and said: "Your Majesty believes that you will not rebel, because you have no conditions for rebellion, but you will not believe your father." ”

Lu Youwei's face remained unchanged, but there was a storm in his heart, of course he understood what Wang Junlin meant, but although he had always wanted to become the sect master of the Lu family, he even dreamed of it, and he had worked hard for this goal for many years, but he never thought of killing his father.

Wang Junlin's words undoubtedly gave his own conditions, and at the same time tore apart the 'devil' that would not have appeared in the depths of his heart, but this 'devil' is still very young, so young that it is not enough to influence the thoughts in his heart.

It was only at this time that Lu Youwei discovered that the most powerful thing about the legendary peerless murderer in the Ming Dynasty was not poison and martial arts, but his control and understanding of people's hearts. He was so cautious and insidious in his bones, and in the face of such a big temptation he gave, he was unmoved, and in turn attacked his own defense.

It was only at this time that Lu Youwei discovered that what Wang Junlin wanted was far more than what the Lu family could give, far more than what was mentioned on the gift list, and not only that the Lu family would cooperate with him in Fanyang County from now on, but a domineering and arrogant attitude, wanting to directly control their Lu family in their hearts.

If he was moved by Wang Junlin's words, he believed that under the cooperation between him and Wang Junlin, it would not be difficult for his father to die of illness, as for his eldest nephew, Lu Jianheng, the eldest grandson of the Lu family, it would be easier for him to die, if he really did this, he would naturally become the sect master of the Lu family, but from now on, he would also be pinched in the palm of Wang Junlin's hand.

Lu Youwei lowered his head, not daring to look at Wang Junlin, and was silent for a long time, Wang Junlin tilted his head slightly, squinted at Lu Youwei, who seemed to be calm, and kept guessing the most obscure thoughts in Lu Youwei's heart at this time, and said: "What the official just said, Second Master Lu might as well go back and think about it, if you think about it, you will send the salt shop to this official, and this official will help Second Master Lu become the master of the Lu family." ”

After speaking, Wang Junlin didn't wait for Lu Youwei to say anything, and shouted directly: "Come on, send off guests." ”

Lu Youwei forcibly suppressed the inexplicable agitation in his heart, saluted Wang Junlin, and turned around and left without saying anything.

Wang Junlin watched Lu Youwei's back gradually disappear, squinting and pondering, thinking that no matter whether it was a powerful country or a family, what really made them perish came from the internal crisis.
