On the 30th day of the lunar month this year, in addition to celebrating, people also have another thing of interest, that is, the grievances and grievances between Lu Mengzheng, the ruling minister of the dynasty, and Zhao Gu, the marquis of Zhuozhou County.

As we all know, when the Marquis of Zhuozhou County just returned to the Great Song Dynasty from the Liao State, LΓΌ Mengzheng twice sent people to kill him several times, but the Marquis of Zhuozhou County escaped his murder several times, and even finally invented the greenhouse technology, and recovered the sixteen states of Yanyun, ranking as the Marquis of the founding county, and the contradiction between the two was not mentioned.

People don't know what agreement was reached between the two, in short, after Zhao Gu gained power, he did not settle accounts with Lu Meng Zhengqiu.

But today, the contradictions between the two have been exposed again.

Early in the morning, according to rumors, it turned out that since last year, after the Marquis of Zhuozhou County fell seriously ill, he went to Jiangling Mansion to recuperate, who had wanted to take advantage of his absence in Kaifeng, when the ruling minister Lu Mengzheng actually instigated the underworld gang in the north of the city, intimidated and threatened the person in charge of Zhaogu Industry and a series of actions, and even wanted to take away the industry of Baiwei Restaurant, Liuji Garment Shop, and Xianyun Villa.

The three industries of Zhuozhou County Marquis are very profitable, Baiwei Restaurant has an endless stream of guests from morning to night, and hundreds of dollars are paid every day, and Liu Ji Garment Shop has monopolized the production method of greenhouse tarpaulin, and each batch of fabrics can always be exchanged for tens of thousands of dollars or even hundreds of thousands of dollars, Xianyun Villa is favored by high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen with its unique architectural flavor, and there are often people who spend a lot of money in it, and the income is also very expensive.

Lu Mengzheng, as the ruling minister of the dynasty, couldn't hold it in the face of such an attractive income, and greedily chose to take advantage of the absence of the county marquis of Zhuozhou to make a move, once the news was exposed, it immediately attracted everyone's attention, and the people discussed it one after another, obviously extremely interested.

Some people even say that the reason why Lu Mengzheng robbed the property of the county marquis of Zhuozhou and coveted money came second, mainly because the county marquis of Zhuozhou was too brilliant in the past two years and made too many contributions, which caused Lu Mengzheng's jealousy, so he wanted to take advantage of his illness to kill him, which was actually a murderous act.

The people are naturally very interested in this kind of topic, and for a while, there were rumors in Kaifeng Mansion again, which was even more enthusiastic than Li Hao's time.

Especially now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, most of the people have nothing to do, and now there is no entertainment, people's energy is naturally attracted to this matter more and more.

Even the ordinary peddlers and pawns were talking about it, not to mention those who spent the whole day in teahouses and restaurants, and the names of Lu Mengzheng and Zhao Gu were mentioned hundreds of times by the people of Kaifeng City almost every minute.

In Lu Mengzheng's mansion, it didn't take long for him to hear these rumors, and he immediately jumped up like a cat with its tail stepped on.

"Who spread this rumor? The old man has been busy with the logistics of the Western Expedition all day long, where can he have time to deal with Zhao Gu? "Lu Meng is right.

He replied, "Who says it's not?" But for some reason, overnight, these rumors were already known to everyone in Kaifeng City, and everyone was discussing this matter, which was very enthusiastic. ”

Lu Mengzheng rubbed his forehead, and suddenly seemed to realize something: "This style of spreading rumors, why do I feel so familiar?" ”

Lu Yijian walked in from outside the study with a wry smile at this time, and said, "Uncle is right, when Zhao Gu forced Li Hao to step down, wasn't this kind of trick used?" ”

"Yes, yes, Zhao Gu has just returned to Kaifeng, and this kind of thing happened immediately, and he didn't do it, so he's a hell." Lu Mengzheng also smiled bitterly.

"But...... The things mentioned in the rumors were not done by the old man at all, he slandered Li Hao before and was famous, but now he is completely empty-nest! ”

I haven't seen him for more than a year, Lu Mengzheng has grown a lot taller, and he has the style of a handsome son, and he smiled gently when he heard this: "Uncle, now that Kaifeng City knows about this matter, who cares if he is true or not?" It is true that Zhao Gu was indeed sick before, it is also true that he lived in seclusion in Jiangling Mansion, and it is even more true that his property is remembered, people will naturally tend to believe him, and uncle, you are the only one who has a grudge against him, who should people suspect if they don't suspect you? ”

Lu Mengzheng smiled bitterly when he heard this: "This Zhao Gu, as soon as he returned to the city, he did this kind of thing, didn't the old man already tell him at the beginning?" The matter that was calculated about him before has stopped, why does he have to bring up the old thing again? ”

"Uncle, I'm afraid it's not you who is his target this time." Lu Yijian seemed to gradually figure out something, and said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Lu Mengzheng asked.

"Uncle, you think, it is not you who robbed his property, but he is preaching everywhere that you did it, in order to prove his innocence, will you find out who is behind this?" Lu Yijian asked rhetorically.

Lu Mengzheng's eyes narrowed, and he nodded suddenly: "The old man knows, after Zhao Guyi's publicity, if the old man wants to ensure his reputation, he can only find out the person behind the scenes, otherwise he will confirm his reputation." ”

"Yes, and when those people behind the scenes know about this, they will definitely be able to guess your situation, and maybe they will take the initiative to come to you to admit their mistakes, after all, they will definitely be afraid that you will be angry with them after you find out the truth."

Lu Mengzheng nodded and glanced at Lu Yijian approvingly: "You have considered this matter very well, so ...... The old man could only send someone to investigate, this Zhao Gu became more and more cunning, and he dared to force the old man to do things for him. ”

Lu Meng went out with a muttering voice, and then he mobilized all his forces to investigate the people who were secretly plotting Zhao Gu's industry.

After this investigation, several gangs involved in this matter in Beicheng District have been dug up, and even the background of the officials behind them is about to be dug up.

And all this only happened in one hour, which shows how much energy Lu Mengzheng has in the current court.

In another high-ranking official's mansion in Kaifeng Mansion, with Lu Mengzheng's investigation, several officials had already gathered here, looking at each other with a sullen face.

"Guys, what should I do? Right now, Zhao Gu and Xiangye are staring at us, our plan has been exposed, we have to find a way quickly! One of them said anxiously.

Several other people were also gloomy, and one of them hated and said: "This Zhao Gu is really cunning, he can't find us by himself, so he forced Xiang Ye to investigate, it's really not a son of man." ”
