Lingzhou City was raided overnight, and the people of Liangshan Manor entered and exited at dusk, although it was fast in and out, but the impact was very sensational. The most shocking thing was that the first high-ranking official in Lingzhou, Taishou Zhang, was killed, which seemed to be the first Taishou to be killed by the rebels since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The second is that the Lingzhou treasury was looted, and countless treasury silver disappeared. The last one was that more than 1,000 officers and soldiers in the official barracks, along with more than 1,000 family members, all disappeared overnight.

After a few days of fainting, a group of officials drafted an official document and reported it to the imperial court, attributing the incident to the regimental training that made Wei Dingguo and Shan Tinggui not admit their crimes and rebel.

After that, the incident in Lingzhou was like a snowball, spreading all the way in the direction of the capital. As a big city between Lingzhou and the capital, the Daimyofu quickly received such a message, and it quickly spread among the people.

Let's say that in a shop called Hongfu Commercial Bank in Nancheng, the only fish of the Zeng family's five tigers who slipped through the net, Zeng Mi, sat in the room with a gloomy face. This shop is the property of the Zeng family, and Zeng Minan lived here that day when he came to treat his injuries. A few days ago, the news of the collapse of Zengtou City was sent here by Zhuangli's cronies, and he was sad and indignant, but he also pinned his hope of revenge on the Lingzhou government, but recently there was news that the Lingzhou officers and soldiers rebelled and Taishou was killed, and he suddenly felt deep despair.

The hatred of breaking the family, the hatred of destroying the door! Zeng Mi couldn't swallow this breath no matter what. But now he has no strength at hand, Jin Guoyuan is beyond the reach of the whip in the northeast, and he thinks about it and thinks that he still has to use the power of the Zhou Dynasty government. One is that Liangshan Manor is being attacked by the imperial court and can be used; Second, he has worked hard for so many years, and he has a good relationship with officials at all levels, so he doesn't have to wait for a while at this time. So Zeng Mi carefully sorted out the relationship network that the Zeng family had built up over the years, and he immediately listed Liang Zhongshu, the prefect of the Daimyo Mansion, as his first target. This person is the son-in-law of the prime minister of the current dynasty, and now he is sitting in the Daimyo's Mansion, holding great power and commanding heavy troops, and the key is that he is operating conveniently in the Daimyo's Mansion. At that moment, he pondered for a long time, and the shopkeeper had prepared a generous gift, and then went to the Liang Mansion to ask for a meeting with the head Liang Shibao.

This Liang Shibao is the younger brother of Liang Zhongshu, and he has won his trust and has always relied on him as a confidant. The Zeng family's previous gifts with Liang Zhongshu also passed through him, so Zeng Mi thought of him first.

Liang Mansion Zeng Mi had also been here before, and I saw him and Zeng Ding come to a side door and hand a famous thorn, and the doorman took it, and came out to invite him in after a while.

"Why did Erlang come to see me today, but the injury has improved?"

When Zeng Mi and the two arrived in front of a hall in the mansion, they heard an enthusiastic voice sound, and then saw Liang Shibao coming out of the hall, and there was a handsome man in his twenties by his side.

"Thanks to the manager's trouble, this injury is stable now, but it is difficult to feel at ease when the family is unexpected, and I am suffering every day."

"I've heard some things about Zengtou City, and it's useless for Erlang to be anxious for a while, and he's going to think about it for a long time."

Liang Shibao said that he took the two of them into the hall, and after inviting them to tea, he introduced the people around him, who turned out to be Li Gu, the housekeeper of Lu Junyi, a famous person in the famous mansion of Hebei. Zeng Mi also heard of Lu Junyi's name, and immediately greeted him, sat down again, and then said the purpose of the trip.

"The Liangshan thieves are fierce and brutal, and the ancient family boy known as the jade-faced Meng Wei is even more insidious and abnormal, the treasury of Zengtou City is empty, and there is no one in the family who has a broken arm, leaving only a person with a broken arm to survive here.

"Jeju Prefecture is not Hebei Province, and the imperial court must agree to raise troops from the Daimyo's Mansion, so I'm afraid it will be difficult for a while, but Shiro will report to Lord Zhongshu in the future."

"The little one also knows that this matter is difficult, but the big man of the Zhongshu Lord, and he is very famous in the court, if he comes out of it, it will definitely be done, although Zeng Tou City has been robbed now, but the Zeng family still has a lot of industries in various places, as long as the revenge is avenged, the kid is willing to sell the industry to raise military funds for the Zhongshu Lord."

This Zeng Mi knew that Liang Zhongshu was a person, and when he saw that the head of the Liang family had the intention of shirking, he made a big bet. Liang Shibao was really moved when he heard it, he has some number of this Zeng family's industry, as long as he gets his hands on Hebei, let alone 100,000 yuan, then there is no need to worry about this year's birthday.

Just when Liang Shibao was frowning and thinking about how to speak, that Li Gu suddenly asked:

"Just now, this Lang Jun said that the kid of the Gu family, but his name is Gu Haotian?"

"It's this kid, who Steward Li knows?" Zeng Mi was surprised when he saw this Li Gu asking.

"I've met a few times, this person and the villain's Lu Yuanwai are the brothers of the same division, and they also visited the Daimyo's Mansion once a year ago."

"Oh! And this thing! ”

Liang Shibao and Zeng Mi were taken aback at the same time. That Liang Shibao seemed to remember something, but his brows furrowed even tighter, and after a while, he asked Li Gu again:

"I heard that Lin Chong, who is from the small family of the ancient family and the forbidden army in the capital, is a senior brother, so in this way, isn't that member of your family and Lin Chong also a senior brother."

"The manager is right, these three people are from the same family."

"That's a coincidence!"

After Liang Shibao saw what he said, he stopped talking, just kept knocking on the table on the side with his fingers, thinking about something seriously, and after a while, he seemed to have made up his mind, and then said lightly:

"What Erlang invited, I will definitely report it to Zhongshu in the future, so wait with peace of mind for the time being, it will not disappoint you."

Zeng Mi saw that Liang Shibao agreed, and he was overjoyed at the time, so he immediately got up and thanked him and said goodbye, while Li Gu stayed inside, and the two of them didn't know what they were muttering.

Let's say that since this Li Gu came to the Daimyo's Mansion last year, his life in the Lu family has become increasingly uncomfortable. The most obvious change is that Yan Qing's wife always appears by his side coldly, and he has almost been hit by him in several trysts with Jia's family, which scares him alive. Later, even Lu Junyi's attitude changed, and he was no longer allowed to manage the affairs of the inner house, which greatly reduced his chances of getting close to the Jia family. Recently, he even heard that Lu Junyi was going to send him to the grange outside, which made him very nervous, and he was a little suspicious that his affairs had been discovered.

In a panic, Li Gu thought of the noble man he deliberately befriended during his time in the Daimyo's Mansion - Liang Shibao, the head of Liang Zhongshu. After he sat firmly in the position of the Lu family's housekeeper, he thought that if he wanted to plot the Lu family's property, his own strength alone was not enough, so he was bent on looking for foreign aid. By chance, he got acquainted with the head of the Liang Mansion, and immediately fell in love with this person, and in the future, under the pretext of being a fellow villager in Tokyo, he often gave gifts and invited him to eat, and was gradually accepted by Liang Shibao. On this day, he came to the Liang Mansion to dispel the panic in his heart and ask for a reassuring strategy, but he didn't expect to meet Zeng Jiaerlang who had the same purpose, and what was even more unexpected was that he also heard a name from his mouth that he had always hated - Gu Haotian, and this kid now seems to have become a thief, he immediately sensitively realized that this matter could be used, so he immediately told Lu Junyi about his relationship.

In the evening of that day, Li Gu returned to the Lu Mansion excitedly, and when he entered the mansion gate, the elusive Yan Qing suddenly jumped out.

"Steward Li, I'm going there again today!"

"Ahh - Thief splashing skin! ”

Li Gu was startled, and then scolded fiercely and left, but after only taking a few steps, he turned his head and asked:

"Yan Qing, can you be outside?"

"I know, you can see for yourself."

Yan Qing looked at him suspiciously, thinking that this kid had been hiding from the staff recently, why did he take the initiative to find him today.

In the study room of the inner house, Lu Junyi was holding a letter, sitting there with some thoughts, he had just finished reading the letter sent by his junior brother Gu Haotian. It talked about the conflict between Liangshan Manor and the imperial court since the beginning of the year, and talked in detail about the encounter with Lin Chong and Luan Tingyu, and said that in recent days, he attacked Zengtou City, and happened to meet the third senior brother Shi Wengong. What's more important is that he reminded in the letter that Zeng Mi, the second son of Zeng Rong, the owner of Zengtou City, had slipped through the net, and now he is in the Daimyo's Mansion, and it is estimated that he will find the officials of the Daimyo's Mansion to avenge his family, and let him be careful to beware of villains exposing their relationship with the same family, so that people can excuse themselves to blame.

This kid did something big without making a sound! It's not a small guts!

Lu Junyi couldn't help but admire and worry about this little junior brother. He couldn't help but think of what the master said when he came over last year, he didn't think much about it at the time, and now it seems that his old man had a deep meaning at that time. But let him suddenly give up this huge family business to rebel for no reason, he is indeed unwilling, his bottom plan is actually to wait and see for two years, to see if this junior brother can become a climate, and then make a choice, although this is a bit snobbish, but it is always stable.

But this junior brother reminded him to beware of the villain, who is this villain? If you know about their relationship with the same family, Yan Qing and Li Gu are the most aware in the mansion. Yan Qing was raised by the Lu family and is the most worthy of trust; Either Li Gu, Yan Qing has often said in a roundabout way lately that it is not appropriate to put a big man in the inner house, and if he thinks about it, he will send him outside to do things, but he doesn't seem to be very happy. But after all, I have a life-saving grace for him, so I shouldn't betray him for this little thing!

Just when Lu Junyi was thinking about it, he heard the maid report that the lady had an invitation, so Lu Junyi saw the newspaper and put the letter on the desk, got up and covered the door and went out.

Let's say that after Li Gu talked to Yan Qing at the door, he came all the way to Lu Junyi's study, but when he got there, he saw that the door was hidden, and he didn't hear any movement, so he just pushed the door in, and then saw the letter on the desk at a glance. In other words, this guy is also bold, pick it up and look at it, but the first line saw the five words "Senior Brother Taijian", and suddenly his heart beat wildly, and he immediately looked at it at a glance and ten lines, and after reading it again and again, he was secretly shouting in his heart: God help me! He was thinking about some ironclad evidence along the way, and this letter was just the right relief for his troubles. Then he put the letter in its place, crept out of the study, and went quietly.
