Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but praise Song Cai a few words in his heart, this person is really reliable, whether Lu Chen thought of it or couldn't think of it, Song Cai did it well. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, I saw Song Cai take down a few letters from the bookshelf behind him and hand them to Lu Chen, and said, "Young master, these are all news from the Yizhou Branch, please take a look."

Hearing this, Lu Chen hurriedly took these letters, and he first opened the first one, which introduced the reason why the Luo family was wanted and what happened. What is written on this is basically the same as what Luo Gong said. Therefore, Lu Chen only watched it roughly and then stopped paying attention.

He then opened the second letter, which introduced a series of measures taken by the Taishou Mansion after the Luo family fled into the mountains.

The first was to surround this section of the mountain range, and then report the matter to the imperial court, these two things, Lu Chen has long known. However, the Taishou Mansion did not stop there, but moved more and more.

After another period of time, that is, on the day when the Holy Decree arrived in Yizhou City, Taishou suddenly summoned the major families of the entire Yizhou City. According to the description in the letter, as long as there are some famous families in Yizhou, they have basically been invited by Taishou.

The reason why Taishou invited them was that he wanted these families to form an alliance with their Taishou Mansion and jointly capture the Luo family's fugitives. In the end, Taishou also promised that if he finally found the treasure from the Luo family, except for the share to be handed over to the imperial court, he would definitely share the rest equally with everyone.

Seeing this, Lu Chen already had some kind of speculation in his mind, but he didn't think too much about it, but continued to tear open the third letter.

This records the reactions of the major families. After seeing Taishou's idea of wanting an alliance, several big families who could be counted in Yizhou said goodbye on the spot, and made it clear that they didn't have this idea.

Regarding the reaction of these major families, Lu Chen did not have the slightest surprise. This kind of alliance can be regarded as attachment at best, but it is difficult to say that Taishou wants to annex them.

You must know that once an alliance is formed, you must first divide a large part of the private army of your respective family and the resources of your family to the alliance leader. In this way, the major families will be weakened in a different direction, and when the time comes, they will be the fish on the board, to be slaughtered.

However, to Lu Chen's surprise, Taishou did not feel the slightest embarrassment about these families who raised objections, and directly let them go. Regarding Taishou's approach, Lu Chen was puzzled.

After all, these families have violated the majesty of his Taishou, how can you say that this Taishou must also be expressed, otherwise who will listen to his orders in the future?

Suddenly

With countless doubts, Lu Chen opened the last letter again, and when he saw the record on it, Lu Chen's eyes suddenly froze.

Naturally, this is recorded immediately after the previous events, that is, what happened in the last few days. After those big families went back, only a little more than two days passed. A family that can rank in the top ten in Yizhou was wiped out by the man in black overnight!

According to the descriptions of people in the vicinity, there were more than a hundred men in black who infiltrated the family that night. And the strength of these people is very strong, the guards of that family saw someone attacking at night, and immediately hundreds of people rushed up. However, the two sides were just a face-to-face, and hundreds of guards had already been defeated, and the casualties were even heavier, which showed the strength of these men in black.

The next day, the Taishoufu army, who came to investigate the incident, is said to have found a broken jade pendant at the scene. And this jade pendant is the jade pendant worn by the head of the Luo family. Except for this half of the jade pendant, no valuable clues have been found. When these men in black came, they were obviously very well prepared, and from the corpses they left behind, there was no trace of anything related to their identity. As a result, all the spearheads were pointed at the Luo family because of that piece of jade pendant!

It is said that after hearing the news, Taishou angrily threw several precious porcelains on the spot, and issued a statement: If he does not catch the traitors of the Luo family, he will not give up!

However, before everyone could recover from this murder case. In the afternoon of the same day, Taishou led the army, and with lightning speed, he directly broke into a family whose strength was in Yizhou and could also rank in the top ten. And, without explanation, all the clansmen of this family were arrested.

After doing all this, Taishoufu released his words: There are fugitives from the Luo family hidden in this family. It is also said that a number of bloodstained machetes were also recovered from the family.

Although most of the family has never pleaded guilty. However, in the case of 'conclusive evidence', the people of the Taishou Mansion did not listen to their justifications and directly put the people of this family on death row.

On the same day, half of the wealthy families in Yizhou announced that they would form an alliance with the Taishou Mansion to jointly arrest the Luo family's fugitives.

This is the end of the content of this letter, because Song Cai set up a branch in Yizhou, and basically sends letters every five or six days. So, the events recorded in this letter are not very long.

And after reading this last letter, Lu Chen finally understood the real reason for the whole incident and the mastermind behind it!

In general, this is a play directed and acted by Taishou, or a big conspiracy.

From the very beginning, when the news of the Luo family's discovery of the treasure was leaked out, it was not accidental, but a premeditated plan.

Obviously, the person who spread the news that the Luo family got the treasure must have been a pawn secretly arranged by Taishou. And most of the two families who persecuted the Luo family were also instigated by Taishou behind the scenes.

And the subsequent development seems to be very natural, but there is still the shadow of Taishoufu in it. Just like what Luo Gong said at the beginning: The news of the Luo family's treasure spread from their county town to the ears of Taishou later, and it was only a few days in total. And Taishou even sent people to arrest the Luo family without the slightest investigation.

Before, Lu Chen might have thought that these were coincidences. However, now that he has seen the whole thing, Lu Chen will no longer think that this incident is due to coincidence. After all, it is impossible for a thing to be without so many coincidences.

That Taishou actually knew that the Luo family had no treasures, and his real purpose was to use the Luo family's affairs as an introduction, and then integrate all the families in Yizhou, and then completely control the entire Yizhou border.

If this is the case, the whole thing can be explained very well, as for why the Taishou Mansion suddenly made a big move later, Lu Chen guessed that the Yizhou Taishou should be in order to get Tang Xuanzong's holy decree.

Because of the Holy Decree, the various actions of Yizhou Taishou can be above board. (To be continued.) )
