The sky was overcast.

The door of the main hall of the Lu Mansion was open, the cold wind was blowing, Lu Kang's gray hair was all picked up, the fire in the room was very strong, the old man sat on it, closed his eyes and recuperated, and seemed to be preoccupied.

The old servant had already closed the door for Lu Kang more than once, but he stopped him, at this time Lu Kang had closed his eyes and couldn't see the silver outside the door, but this gust of cold wind made the old man extremely sober.

Lu Xun ran panting, and when he crossed the threshold, he almost fell without paying attention, but fortunately the old servant on the side helped him, otherwise he would have to fall.

"Do things steadily, isn't it a loss of etiquette to be so flustered?"

Facing Lu Kang's blame, Lu Xun lowered his head and stuck out his tongue, and said: "What Weng Weng taught is that grandson must pay attention next time." ”

Slowly opening his eyes, Lu Kang glanced at Lu Xun dotingly, and a smile finally flashed on his tied face, "Say, what's the matter." ”

"There are one or two things." Lu Xun arched his hand and said respectfully: "First of all, since Zhang's death, the position of county lieutenant has been vacated, and it is taken by Taishi Ziyi, a native of Donglai. ”

"Is it too Shici?" Lu Kang listened, and his mind had already begun to recall the appearance of that general. Handsome and chic, with a rigorous personality, extraordinary bravery, and was taken to Zhoutai Water Village with Gao Yun, it can be said that this person is definitely Gao Yun's henchman, and it is reasonable to be able to do the position of county lieutenant.

"What about the second one?"

Lu Xun rolled his eyes, and said: "The second thing is to listen to what others said, today Captain Gong of the Taishou Mansion has been patrolling the streets. According to common sense, it is normal to strengthen law and order after the chaos, and there are also some ambiguous families who want to test Gao Taishou's attitude. No, the gentleman of the Li family just asked himself to ask for taxes on the street, and he was caught red-handed by Captain Gong. ”

"And then?" Lu Kang obviously cared about this matter after all, and he also knew that the families who had an ambiguity with the Zhang family could not be killed, and now Gao Yun's authority to these families was still a matter of concern to him.

"I was beaten up by Captain Gong on the street, and said that their Li family will never be able to have a small household again in their lifetime!" After Lu Xun finished speaking, he moved closer to the stove, stretched out his hands that were red from the cold to roast the fire, and said to Lu Kang: "Weng Weng, according to what his grandson has seen, Gao Taishou has already focused on annexing the lands of these families. ”

Lu Kang's eyebrows have been raised, once these small and medium-sized families have no land, it will be equivalent to cutting off their livelihood in the future. Land is the most important thing for a family, although these families have accumulated a lot of wealth over the years, and they will not starve to death if they lose their land for a while, but it is difficult to say that they will not be able to enter and exit as time goes by.

But Lu Kang also understands that under Gao Yun's thunderous means, these families can only succumb, and it is best for them to spend this period of time safely first, where can they dare to compete with the sharp Gao Yun? Didn't these families want to test Gao Yun's attitude, and now that they have been tempted, they have just lost their land.

"What does Bo Yan think about this matter?"

"Gao Taishou is strong and decisive, so that by annexing these family lands, he will become the largest scholar clan in Lujiang, which can be said to cover the sky with one hand."

Lu Kang shook his head with a smile, got up, touched his grandson's head, and said, "Bo Yan is wrong. ”

"Taishou is the son of the prince after all, the prince asked Taishou to come to Lujiang to consolidate his strength, but it does not mean that Taishou should be resident in Lujiang, although Lujiang is good, but the center of Jianghuai is still in Shouchun."

Seeing Lu Xun's puzzlement, Lu Kang continued to speak: "If my old man expected, Taishou will definitely divide the ownership of these lands to our Lu family and his He family, and support our two families to become the Dashi clan of Jianghuai." Then let the two of us fight each other, and he will continue to develop his strength in Lujiang with peace of mind, which is the so-called balance. ”

Lu Xun winked at Lu Kang, and he already understood a lot when Lu Kang said this, but Lu Kang couldn't speak again.

"But the heart of our Lu family is not limited to this, Taishou promised me about the academy, as long as the prince's plan is successful, I will also move to Shouchun to be the academy. Your Uncle Gongji is also a scholar, and it is not a matter of being in the officialdom all the year round, and when that time comes, I will also ask the prince for instructions and transfer him to the academy. ”

"But the Lu family still has to be inherited, the Lu family's career cannot be blocked, Bo Yan You are the most outstanding son of my Lu family in a hundred years, this Lu family will be handed over to you sooner or later."

"You are still a teenager, you should have specialized in learning and reading poetry and books, but the current situation has to make you fall into a power struggle in the near future, so for Bo Yan, you must find a big tree to rely on."

Lu Xun looked at his grandfather, in fact, he also had plans for these things, but he didn't expect Lu Kang to say it so quickly.

"Gao Tai Shou, after Wen Hou, has the merit of rescuing Kong Beihai, his subordinate Guo Jia Youheng is a first-class strategist in the world, and his subordinate Tai Shi Ci is a monster Zhou Tai is a fierce general. I heard that he is now busy rebuilding his father's fall camp, and I believe that soon the eight hundred traps that made the princes of the world frightened will reappear in the world. ”

Lu Kang also glanced at Lu Xun meaningfully, he knew that his grandson was a smart man, and he didn't point it out anymore after saying this. In the hall, the grandfather and grandson looked at each other like this for a long time.

After a long time, Lu Xun still made a move.

He respectfully bowed to Lu Kang. Then he knelt down on his knees, kowtowed heavily, and repeated the cycle three times before finally spitting out a sentence.

"Weng Weng rest assured, his grandson is willing to worship Gao Taishou as a teacher."

...

"Apprenticeship?" He Fu glanced at He Qi and said, "Gongmiao, you have to think clearly, at this time, we have to fight with Zhang Cong's remnant family and the Lu family, and I have no experience of meddling in the Taishou Mansion." ”

"Besides, Gao Yun is Yuan Shizi's henchman, I listened to what your uncle Zhongzhen (He Chun) said, Yuan Highway has been rumored to be the emperor, if Yuan Highway is called the emperor at this time, it will inevitably be the target of the public, and then Yuan Yao's forces will also collapse, and Gao Yun will naturally be ruined!"

"It's not wise to gamble like this." He Fu pressed He Qi on the futon and said, "Besides, Gong Miao has already seen that Gao Yun's great disciple Hao Zhao, who is not surprised by changes, and is a young talent. I heard that this person and Gao Yun had already followed when they traveled north, and they were intimate, if Gong Miao forced himself into Gao Yunmen at this time, not to mention that Gao Yun was accepted, it was also a question whether he could be treated well! ”

"Father." He Qi's immature face had a serious face, "The child thinks that his father's words are inappropriate, although Hao Zhao has the ability, but after all, he is still a military general, and this person is already impulsive at the banquet, which is really unwise." If the child enters the Taishou Gate, he will only learn wisdom, and it will have nothing to do with Hao Zhao.

Besides, now that Taishou has planned to put my He family and the Lu family on the table, there will inevitably be a conflict of interest between the two families, maybe Ji Ninggong has sent Brother Boyan to the Taishou Mansion, if his father still does not move, wouldn't he be passive? ”

"Enough!"

He Fu glared at He Qi, he admitted that his son's analysis was very reasonable, but he also had a hurdle in his heart that he couldn't get over. Yuan Shu said that the emperor would die, and Gao Yun would also become Yuan Shu's funeral object, but Gao Yun was a good teacher, but he didn't want his son to accompany Gao Yun all the way to the dark!

The more he knew that his son was excellent, the more he had to surrender for his son's life, he could fight and gamble, but the hope of his He family, He Qi, would definitely not work!

"Don't mention this again!"

He Fu threw his sleeves away, and the matter was already closed.

He didn't know that Yuan Yao and Gao Yun were actually trying to stop Yuan Shu's power to become emperor, and he didn't know that his actions would lead his son down a completely different path...
