Listening to Li Chongjiu's conditions, Lu Chengqing was silent, and it was no longer in the category where he could hold his mind at this time.

But Lu Ziqian could, I saw that after Lu Ziqian listened to Li Chongjiu's words, he pondered for a while, raised his head and looked at Li Chongjiu, and suddenly said: "Your Excellency's words are thought-provoking, Xu Lang will not look like a martial artist, dare to ask where he is from?" Where did you learn from? ”

Li Chongjiu knew that the other party was suspicious of his identity, after all, his knowledge was different from that of a soldier. Li Chongjiu said at the moment: "Back to Lu Gong, a native of Xiataiyuan, he studied for a year under the Hefen Gate and got acquainted with Su Juncheng of Shanggu County, so he was promoted to a general. ”

Lu Ziqian showed a sudden expression when he heard this, Wang Tong gave lectures in Hefen, and there were thousands of apprentices who traveled to study, so it was reasonable for Li Chongjiu to explain his identity. Lu Ziqian glanced at the thick cocoon in Li Chongjiu's hand, and he was even more convinced in his heart. At that moment, Lu Chengqing complimented: "Brother Xu is really a Confucian general, Yunwen Yunwu, a hawk will be too condescending!" ”

"Brother Lu is too awarded, too awarded, Li Yuanjun's account, I don't know how many people are better than those below. It's just a mediocre person down there. ”

What Li Chongjiu said made the Lu family and the two people suspicious, but needless to say, the two envoys Wen Yanbo matched their talent and reputation. This Xu Junshou's Eagle Strike Lang will also let them look at it highly. You must know that the Eagle Strike Lang General is just the deputy general of the Eagle Tooth Lang General, and this status is indeed a little lower.

Li Chongjiu immediately asked: "Then in the next mentions, the two of you don't know how to think about it?" ”

Lu Ziqian immediately clasped his palms and said: "What you mean, I will convey it to my brother, you also know my Lu family, all aspects have to be weighed, and we will definitely not be able to give you an answer within a few days, as for when, we will definitely inform you in secret when we come to the conclusion." ”

Speaking of this, Li Chongjiu nodded, and then clenched his fists and said, "Since this is the case, we will retire for the time being and wait for good news." ”

"I'm not busy, I've already set up a banquet, and it's not too late to leave after eating here."

Li Chongjiu and Wen Yanbo glanced at each other. Wen Yanbo said: "We have to hurry up and return to the Taishou, and we dare not stay for a long time." ”

After repeated attempts to keep guests, Lu Ziqian and Lu Chengqing personally sent Li Chongjiu and them out of the mansion, and Li Chongjiu and Wen Yanbo left the house again in a small oil car.

After seeing the two of them leave, Lu Chengqing immediately asked Lu Ziqian: "Uncle, what General Xu said is not unreasonable, it is impossible for our Lu family to come forward to compete for power, why don't we retreat behind the scenes and watch it, and choose someone else to come forward for us." ”

Lu Ziqian sneered and said, "It's good that our Lu family doesn't come forward to compete for power, but do you think Li Chongjiu is possible?" In Youzhou, he is indeed a hero, but in the whole world, there are too many such talents, is he comparable to Li Mi and Li Yuan? ”

Lu Chengqing said: "But Li Yuan and Li Mi, one is in Taiyuan and the other is in Guanzhong, they are too far away from us. Our Lu family has to find a way out for the time being. ”

Lu Ziqian's eyes narrowed, and he said: "You are right, as far as the general trend of the whole world is concerned, these two people are the most likely to seize the world at the moment." Your father sent news that Li Yuan's opposition in Jinyang was well known, and he had the support of many Guanlong clans, and once the incident started in less than a year, he could capture Guanzhong. With his relationship with our Lu family, I am more optimistic about Li Yuan at the moment, but he has been slow to move, which is really anxious. ”

Lu Chengqing said: "Yes, uncle, Li Yuan, is a noble relative of Longxi, and he has always been good friends with his father. But Li Yuan is fine, we can't wait for him for a lifetime, right now, Xue Shixiong has begun to mobilize people and horses to mobilize grain and grass, I don't see that in half a month, he will send troops south to fight Dou Jiande. If once Xue Shixiong goes, no matter whether he wins or loses, he will definitely not return to Youzhou, but Li Chongjiu is pressing on Youzhou from the north, how can we Lu Jiadang resist? ”

Lu Ziqian's eyes flashed coldly, and he said, "Could it be that you were moved by General Xu's words to let us dedicate the entire Zhuo County to Li Chongjiu?" ”

Seeing his uncle like this, Lu Chengqing immediately broke out in a cold sweat behind his back, and said, "Uncle, I didn't mean that. He knew that this uncle was very powerful, so even if he was the son of the patriarch, he would not dare to disobey his will.

Lu Ziqian's complexion slowed slightly, and he pressed his hand and said: "Nephew, you don't understand, such as Li Chongjiu, Dou Jiande, a group of people from reckless backgrounds, took advantage of the chaos in the world, and it was okay to rise up at a glance, but in terms of family origin, it can't be compared with the scholar family, I dare to say that if my Lu family starts an incident in Youzhou, it will definitely be ten times stronger than Li Chongjiu's now." Do you believe it? ”

Lu Chengqing nodded and said, "My nephew is convinced. ”

Lu Ziqian patted Lu Chengqing's shoulder, and showed a little helplessness: "Yes, your uncle is ambitious, if it weren't for his current status, he would like to display his ambitions and compete with the world's heroes, and there would be no greater happiness in life than this." But anyway, I decided not to say anything about others, even if you are against it, I understand what you mean. Now our Lu family is now a generation of hairpins, full of princes, pushed by the crown, admired by the world's scholars, and Cui, Wang, and Zheng are called the four major families, even if they go further to be the so-called Son of Heaven, the glory and wealth are at the end, but if you take a step back, if you fail, you will never recover, and countless people will be implicated, and most people in the clan will not be willing to take this risk. ”

"But this doesn't mean that our Lu Jiaken casually bows his head and supports Li Chongjiu, who doesn't know anything about his background, to be the emperor. So we can support Li Yuan, and Li Mi can also support it, but it can't be someone else. Otherwise, it will be an insult to our Lu family. ”

Lu Chengqing lowered his head and said nothing.

Lu Ziqian paced at the moment and said: "But your idea is also right, far water does not quench the thirst of the near, Li Mi now has less than fifty percent chance of capturing Guanzhong, Li Yuan doesn't know what he is thinking and is not moving, we can't pin our hopes on them, we have to find our own way out." When the lord of the world has not appeared, I think Youzhou can be handed over to someone else for the time being, although we don't come out, but this person must be under the control of our Lu family. ”

Lu Chengqing listened to Lu Ziqian's words, and said in his heart that his uncle's words were not self-contradictory, but he didn't dare to speak.

Lu Ziqian took a deep breath and said: "In the future, Youzhou can divide one side, but it will not dominate the world, so that our Lu family wants to cooperate with him." I can see that Li Chongjiu rose to the top of the grassland in just two years, this person's means are amazing, it can be seen how ambitious he is, not to mention that his power is too strong now, and when he enters Youzhou in the future, our Lu family will definitely not be able to control it. ”

Lu Chengqing listened to it and felt a pang in his heart.

Lu Ziqian showed a calm look at the moment and said: "A horse that refuses to obey, even if it is a thousand miles horse, cannot be used to drive a horse. Our Lu family needs to be obedient and willing to carry our Lu family's car forward. So I have another candidate, what do you think of this Jingbian Hou Luoyi? I've met this person a few times, well, it's a little vulgar, but it's a masterpiece in the poor family, very courageous, if you talk about the generals and the strength of your subordinates, it will be enough to protect Youzhou in the future. ”

Lu Chengqing listened to the words and said: "It's just that although this person was stationed in Youzhou back then, we didn't have any dealings with him. ”

Lu Ziqian laughed and said: "How can Luo Yi be willing to succumb to others, he just lost the two counties of Liaodong and Liaoxi, like a lost dog, we told Zhuo County that he could be accommodated, he would immediately come without saying a word and raise troops." ”

Lu Chengqing said: "But Luo Yi's power is not as strong as it was at the beginning, there are only 3,000 soldiers and horses, and I am afraid it won't help us." And I heard that Luo Yi also has a backbone in the back of his head, I am afraid that if he takes advantage of Youzhou, he will lead the wolf into the house. ”

Lu Ziqian nodded, and said: "It's not unreasonable for you to say, Luo Yi dared to make trouble at the beginning, and it is difficult to ensure that he will not stab our Lu family in the future, not to mention that Luo Yi only has one county now, and his power is insufficient, otherwise I am really not afraid of Li Chongjiu." ”

Lu Chengqing said: "I heard that Li Chongjiu has a reputation for virtue in the collar, otherwise Wen Yanbo would not be a famous man in the world, and he would not be driven by him, which shows that he is broad-minded and willing to tolerate others." ”

Lu Ziqian also said with some intention when he heard this: "It's okay, Li Chongjiu's side, we are also talking, maybe they offer a price that is enough to make us tempted." ”

"In short, before your father's intention, let's talk first, give them hope, don't refuse them all at once, so that the price they give us to the Lu family will be higher and higher."

Lu Chengqing said happily when he heard this: "Uncle is really steady! ”

After taking the Lu family's car and returning to the place where he lived. Li Chongjiu immediately asked Wen Yanbo to pack his things immediately and prepare to go out of the city overnight.

Wen Yanbo was slightly surprised, and said, "Envoy, why don't you stay in the city and continue to negotiate with the Lu family, or wait for them to hear back?" ”

Li Chongjiu said: "I can see that although Lu Ziqian is interested in my proposal, he is not sincere enough, if they really make up their minds, he will talk to us about some details in a while, instead of letting us go back." ”

Wen Yanbo said: "Then we are not running for nothing. ”

Li Chongjiu smiled and said: "It's not in vain, at least we know what the Lu family thinks, and Lu Ziqian didn't really reject us, but we need some means to help the Lu family make up their minds." ”

"Determined?" Wen Yanbo asked.

Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "Yes, we are not their only choice. Now the only thing that can be sure that the Lu family will definitely not come out, and the one who stands up for it must be to retreat behind the scenes and put a puppet to fiddle with. If you talk about puppets, Luo Yi, and Gao Kaidao are more suitable than me and Dou Jiande. ”

Wen Yanbo nodded and said: "Gao Kaidao is too close to the Turks, which is a taboo for the scholars, they have always despised Di Yi the most, so Luo Yi is very likely." ”

Li Chongjiu said with a smile: "That's okay, just treat it as Luo Yi, Luo Yi has now been cut off by me, where is there still a force to fight with me." ”
