Lu Kang's bedroom is not big, the decoration is also very simple, and rumored, he is known for his righteousness, sympathy for the people, does not like luxury, very similar, Fuquan also secretly praised after coming in, no wonder the people of Shu County are willing to die for the county guard who just came, and they can peek into one or two from his life.

Therefore, it is not difficult to think about the history of Lu Kang after governing Lujiang for many years, he was surrounded by the second young man of the Yuan family for two years, and the soldiers and people in the city supported him to defend the city, and did not rebel, until this Shu county town could no longer resist the siege and attack of Yuan Shu's army, and the city was finally broken. Of course, it was not his prestige that prompted Fu Quan to know Lu Kang's name and deeds, but his burning of Yiling, which burned down Shu Han's family for many years, and had a big enmity with the Sun family, but because he wanted to protect the clan, he could only reluctantly enter the famous general of Eastern Wu from Sun, Lu Xun is also.

Walking into the depths of the bedroom, after crossing a red screen, on an antique large bed, I saw an old man in a white gown, under the care of the bedside doctor, bandaging the wound.

On the bed, under the bandage of the doctor, Lu Kang shouted a few words from time to time, and there were still a lot of blood stains on his right arm at the moment that seeped out of the bandaged silk. There was a copper basin under the bed, and in it was a blood-stained white cloth and a basin of red blood, presumably for freshly washed wounds. It can be seen that this old man who is over fifty years old is really desperate in this battle to defend the city, and he can't help but sigh that there is really no shortage of loyal ministers in the Han Dynasty.

Finally, after Lu Kang finished bandaging and saw his eyes looking at him, Fu Quan and Lu Jun stepped forward to salute.

"I've seen my lord!"

"I've seen Lu Lujiang!"

"Ahem, ahem!" Lu Kang lay on the bed and did not get up, but replied directly to Fu Quan: "The servant is seriously injured, it is difficult to salute the prince, I hope the prince and the marquis will forgive me, and this time it is also more princes and marquis to bring troops to help, otherwise Lujiang will fall, and the thieves will succeed, and then the servant will lose His Majesty's trust." ”

It stands to reason that Fu Quan naturally can't be compared to Lu Kang's peers, but his official position can't make Lu Kang treat him as a nephew, so Lu Kang only calls him by Fu Quan's official title, avoiding the embarrassment of outsiders being present between the two at the moment. As for Lu Jun, of course Lu Kang doesn't have to salute, after all, he is his son, and there is no reason for a father to salute his son in the world.

Fu Quan didn't reply immediately, but glanced at Lu Jun beside him, and then at the doctors and slaves serving around him, and his eyes gestured, so Lu Jun naturally understood what he meant, and hurriedly glanced at his cronies at home, waved his hand, and soon, except for Lu Kang, Lu Jun and Fu Quan, the rest of the idle people retreated silently.

Lu Jun naturally knew the purpose of Fu Quan's doing, Fu Quan's visit to see his father this time, of course, it would not be just an ordinary reminiscence, don't forget that it was not only Fu Quan, but Lu Jun also received an order from the emperor to "destroy the thieves in January" and quickly wipe out the rebellion, now it is the end of the month, if there is no peace in early June, it will not be good for Fu Quan and Lu Kang. Therefore, at this time, Fu Quan came here, naturally to discuss the plan to quell the chaos, and to discuss the strategy, naturally there can be no outsiders present, although Lu Jun is sure that the people present will not have spies, but no one dares to confirm that there will be no accidents, so it is necessary to disperse irrelevant personnel.

"Shi Bo said seriously, called the spring table word Liuchuan can be, the spring and Uncle Zang's son Hong intersected irreversibly, and Uncle Zang's father letter, when he received a letter from Uncle Zang for help, he should lead the army for help. This time I visited Uncle Shi, one of them visited Uncle Shi's injury, and the other came for the thief. Seeing that there was no one else in the house, Fu Quan politely said his purpose directly, of course, he put his attitude very low, after all, the relationship is not shallow, they are all his own people, Fu Quan naturally will not put on a posture of a big Han Liehou and a county Taishou in front of them, that will make people angry.

Sure enough, after hearing Fu Quan's attitude of surrendering his identity, Lu Kang and Lu Jun's faces were very kind, and then they listened to Lu Kang and said: "Liuchuan came here at the right time, and the servant still has an inquiry, the southeast of Shu County was on fire all night before, scouts were searching, and the rebels were rumored that the grain and grass were attacked, dare to ask if this was done by Liuchuan?" Is it true? ”

"Exactly." Fu Quan replied loudly, and then after seeing Lu Jun's face showing surprise, and Lu Kang is expression was really like this, he secretly muttered to himself that you old guy still ask yourself if you want to play Lao Tzu? Of course, Fu Quan naturally won't say these words, isn't it comfortable to say them?

After a little hesitation, Fu Quan continued: "I went to aid the Lujiang River before, and the border with Jing and Yang, and an unnamed foot of Dabie Mountain was attacked. By chance, he learned that Huang Sui rebelled against the thief where he stored grain, so he traveled lightly, walked on the path, crossed the mountains and mountains, hid his traces, and finally burned most of his grain and grass. After retreating to Zongyang, recruiting good soldiers, and then aiding Shu County, there is today's matter. ”

In the words, although Fu Quan said very briefly, Lu Jun was still a little confused, but for Lu Kang, an old official who has also experienced a lot, he naturally understood the dangers, and then he was even more happy, although his body was still in unbearable pain, but he still couldn't stop his smile. After all, Fuquan was ambushed at the foot of Dabie Mountain, and the rebels were several times his strength, in such a dangerous situation, he was not destroyed by the rebels, this is not that God is blessing the Han, Lujiang will not be destroyed because of the strength of Huang Sui's forces, which must make Lu Kang very happy.

"God bless the man! God bless the river! Now the Huang Sui thieves have been attacking Shu County to no avail, and if there is Liuchuan to help, their wolf ambitions will be invincible. When he was in Luoyang, Zang Taiyuan often praised Liuchuan Dacai, Yanliuchuan Huai Wu Qi's talent, and there was the wind of Huo Hussar in the military affairs. ”

Lu Kang kept praising Fu Quan's actions, refuting Huang Sui's sinister behavior, and praising Fu Quan embarrassed. At the same time, he also secretly muttered in his heart that he didn't seem to be so familiar with that Zang Min, although it was true that the two families were friends in Xuzhou, but after all, he hadn't seen much with him, so he was so naked to praise himself, he was really not used to it. After all, Fu Quan is familiar with history books, so he naturally knows what kind of person Wu Qi is, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is better than Guan Zhong, and Wu is better than Sun Wu. Zang Min compared him to Wu Zi, and his high evaluation is really the only one in his life, so praising him like this, it would be really hellish for Fuquan to get used to it.

Having said that, since Zang Min returned to Luoyang after the expiration of his term as a Xiongnu Zhonglang general, it is said that he stayed with Emperor Liu Hong for a period of time, and was appointed as the Taishou of Taiyuan County in Bingzhou, and he has been an official there for several months. Thinking of this, Fu Quan couldn't help but smile in his heart, secretly said that sometimes history is really not easy to change, in the dark, there is always a force that will make people go where he should go, after all, Fu Quan, who has read Zang Hong's biography in memory, knows that Zang Min was reinstated again after losing tens of thousands of teachers in history with Xia Yu and Tian Yanzhengxian, and the position he held was the Taishou of Taiyuan County, and now he is on the old road again, is it a coincidence or an accident?

As for the relationship between Lu Kang and Zang Min, it is a long story, and the two of them have to start from the Xu Zhao Rebellion eight years ago.

In fact, Lu Kang was born in Yangzhou Wu County as an official since he was a child, known for his righteousness, and later Xu Zhao was in trouble, because he was meritorious in suppressing thieves and quelling chaos, he was appointed as Yangzhou Assassin History Zang Min recommended him as Maocai, and then appointed as Gaocheng County Commander.

That Gaocheng County is on the border, according to the old system, it is ordered that each household must have a bow and crossbow in case of unpreparedness, and outsiders are not allowed to enter and exit at will. As soon as Lu Kang arrived, he exempted the people from these errands, and the people were happy. Lu Kang was thus governed by grace and trust, and the grass thieves who came were later quelled by him, and the state and county were thus able to show their results. Later, in the first year of Guanghe, he moved to Wuling Taishou, and then changed to Guiyang and Le'an two counties Taishou, where he was praised for his talent.

Of course, what makes Lu Kang most famous, and even Fu Quan admires him, is his direct advice. At that time, Liu Hong, who was extravagant by nature, wanted to cast a bronze man, and the imperial court had already emptied the treasury because of the Hundred Years War between Han and Qiang, and the state money had always been very insufficient, and the West Mansion had not been officially established at that time, so Liu Hong naturally could not get rich in a short period of time.

It's just that for Liu Hong, there are too many ways to get money, after all, he is the emperor, and there is no way to save money, so he can only collect taxes. Coupled with the instigation of the eunuchs and courtiers around him who wanted to profit from it, he directly issued an edict to transfer the people's land and levy a tax per mu, charging ten yuan per mu.

However, at that time, floods and droughts hurt the peasants, the people were poor, and Lu Kang, who had always been known for his loyalty and righteousness, and Lu Kang, who had a strong temper, naturally would not allow the little emperor who had just officially taken power to come so nonsense, and directly issued a sharp-tongued edict, and said straightforwardly: "The ministers heard that the first king ruled the world, and the most important thing is to love the people." Provincial light endowment, to calm the world, in addition to the trouble, to worship simplicity, so the surname Conghua, spiritual things should be virtuous. The last days are declining, poor and extravagant, unprovoked, the system is not one, and the labor is cut from the bottom, so the people of Li are sighing, and the yin and yang are moved. His Majesty's holy virtue inherited the sky, when the prosperity was born, and the death was edicted, the acres of land money, cast as a bronze man, read melancholy, mourn the loss of the picture. Husband eleven and tax, Zhou said thoroughly. Those who are thorough can also say that their laws can be practiced through eternity. Therefore, Lu Xuan taxes acres, and disasters arise by themselves; Mourning the public increases, but Confucius is not. How can anyone gather together and plunder the people's goods, and make a useless bronze man? Donate the Holy Ring, and follow the law of the dead king! It is said: 'The king must write, but the book is not lawful, what will the future generations say?' 'Your Majesty should be careful and introspective, and change his ways, so as to stop the hope of resentment of the people. ”

The meaning of this sentence can be said to be a quotation from the classics, and it is very concise and clear to refute Liu Hong's edict of self-destruction, and the translation accuses him of loving the people, saving conscription, and lightly endowing, so as to calm the world, remove troubles, be simple, learn from the Ming monarchs of the past dynasties, and take the lead in letting the world advocate frugality, and should not gather and seize the people's things, in order to create a useless bronze man, and abandon the sage's admonition, because he has made the mistake of the deceased master.

Lu Kang's words were naturally in line with the exhortation of the emperor, but for those eunuchs and courtiers who relied on the emperor's favor to get high positions, it was Lu Kang who cut off their financial routes, because they wanted to gain benefits from this matter. In the end, just as the righteous ministers of the past dynasties would be framed, they framed Lu Kang for invoking the army of the fallen country to satirize the emperor, which was a great crime of disrespect, and some words of demagogy led Liu Hong to order him to be conscripted in a prisoner car to be tried by the court lieutenant. Later, Liu Dai, the servant of the imperial history, assessed his affairs, and Liu Dai explained that Liu Hong knew that he was not sarcastic about himself, but after all, Lu Kang offended his cronies, so he had to be dismissed from his official position and put back in the field.

Despite this, Lu Kang became known to the whole world because of this, and Liu Hong also remembered this loyal person, and after the incident subsided, he once again enlisted him as a councilor. Of course, this incident also happened when Fuquan came out of the Yang Flat Tablet and was in chaos, otherwise Fuquan would also go to meet this loyal minister of the Han family, after all, he had a good relationship with Lu Kang, and he couldn't say that he could still kidnap Lu Xun in the future, right?

Getting back to the point, but said that after Lu Kang praised Fu Quan, his brows suddenly wrinkled slightly, just as Fu Quan and Lu Jun thought that this was the pain of the old man's injury, which caused his face to be bad, and he was about to ask about the injury, but he heard Lu Kang say again: "If so, there is one thing, but the servant is not clear, the thief's grain and grass are burned, how can it be so unwise, for days and days, the soldiers under Shu County, you need to know that the army will be chaotic without food, and its actions are really unpredictable." ”

Fu Quan was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded and said in confusion: "What Shibo said, he is also confused by the spring, Huang Sui is this fang, only one place of grain is stored, and now it has been burned by the spring, and there should be no food." If it does not withdraw, find another place to receive grain and grass, if the army has no food, it will collapse by itself, why not withdraw from Shuxian County for days? ”

After the words were spoken, everyone was puzzled, and they didn't understand Huang Sui's thoughts, and then several people discussed how to pacify Huang Sui, but it was fruitless, and they really didn't know too little about Huang Sui's news.

After that, Lu Kang may also be injured, he was very tired, and said to Lu Jun, "Everything will be handled by Liuchuan", and then closed his eyes and rested by himself.

Suddenly, Fu Quan, who was so trusted by Lu Kang, also smiled bitterly, is it appropriate for Lu Kang to trust himself so much? But then think about it, Lu Kang was injured and handed over the Lujiang army formation to his own disposal, but it is reasonable, after all, in Lujiang today, in terms of official positions and military qualifications, who dares to say that his ability is better than his own? Even Lu Kang himself probably didn't dare to say that.

After bidding farewell to Lu Kang, Fu Quan also left with Lu Jun, and he still had to deal with the logistics of the city, so it was inconvenient to delay. Fu Quan was also about to take people away, and he was also thinking hard in his heart, what did Huang Sui mean, but he didn't want to be stopped by a little guy just after leaving the county office, and what the little guy said then made Fu Quan stunned.

"Now that the yellow thieves have no food, I have a plan to destroy the yellow thieves, and Fuba County is willing to listen?"
