Chapter 10: Destroying the Door
Lu Mansion is full of lights, bright lights, Lu Daoquan is full of smiles on his face, these days he was worried at first, for fear that Long Yan's anger would lead to trouble, but now whether it is extremely Tailai, His Majesty not only did not blame, but ordered Lu Daoquan to set up a banquet at home today, and sent several imperial chefs from the palace for him to send, such a great honor, really made Lu Daoquan, a newcomer who had just entered Beijing as an official, flattered.
The husband and wife of the Lu family saw that people were busy in full swing, and Lu Ying was young and sleepy, so they wanted to take a hand, but everything was handled by Lu An, so why did the old lady have to worry about it.
Lu An as the big housekeeper of Lu Mansion, born in poverty, his surname is Liu, he was sold to Yuzhou when he was young, and after several tosses, he was finally taken in by Lu Linyi, and since then he has been a subordinate in Lu Mansion, and he has been loyal to the Lu family, and finally was given the same surname as the master's family, and now it is counted, Lu An has served the Lu family for nearly 40 years, and the Lu Mansion is well organized under the control of Lu An, for Lu Daoquan, Lu An is more like a brother, never regarded as a lower person, Lu An Nian'en, never had two hearts for the Lu family, and now the little master has come into the world, Presumably, he will have to take care of the little master in the future, and he can be regarded as the "important minister of the three dynasties" of the Lu family.
At dinnertime, the people have brought the dishes and wine to the table, it is a family banquet, naturally there are many rules, Lu Daoquan ordered people to set up a large round table in the hall, and the maids, together with the imperial chef sent by the palace, were arranged to sit together, and it was very lively.
Before the table opened, Lu An walked quickly and said in Lu Daoquan's ear: "Master, Lord Wei from Yuzhou came alone and is waiting outside the door at the moment. Lu Daoquan was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly said: "Hurry up, please!" After a slight pause, he stopped Lu An, and said, "I'll pick up Lord Wei in person!" Saying that, let Lu An sit down first, and he walked quickly to the gate, only to see Wei Shoushi standing alone outside the door.
Wei Shoushi, as the general of Yuzhou, was originally Lu Daoquan's top boss, and the two have been working together for seven or eight years. Just in time, Daoquan happened to have a banquet at home today, and my lord came in with me. ”
Wei Shoushi seemed to want to say something, but he could see that Lu Daoquan was so enthusiastic, but he wanted to stop talking, so he had to follow him in under the leadership of Lu Daoquan. As the saying goes, people are in good spirits when they are happy, and Lu Daoquan was in high spirits along the way, and asked, "Why did Lord Wei come here today?" But what's the matter? "You need to know that Wei Shoushi, as a general in Yuzhou, is one of the top three big people in Yuzhou, and he will not leave easily, let alone bring his entourage, so Lu Daoquan has this question.
Wei Shoushi said vaguely: "A few days ago, an adult came to the palace, and he specially informed the lower officials that Lord Lu would hold a banquet today, and ordered me to come to congratulate him. With that, he shook the brocade box in his hand.
Lu Daoquan smiled and said: "Lord Wei is too polite, let's show Daoquan first, what kind of treasure it is." As he spoke, he took the brocade box and was about to open it, but was stopped by Wei Shoushi and said, "Lord Lu is too anxious, let's drink first, and then it's not too late to watch." ”
When Lu Daoquan heard this, he laughed and said, "It's okay, Lord Wei has a rare trip, and tonight he will definitely not get drunk and not return!" ”
While speaking, the two of them had come to the hall, and when Mrs. Lu saw Wei Shoushi, she stood up and gave a blessing, and said in a coquettish voice: "I have seen Lord Wei, thanks to the adults for taking care of my husband and wife for so many years, this kindness, my husband and wife will never forget, please take a seat." ”
When everyone arrived, Lu Daoquan picked up his wine glass, looked around, saw that people were full of smiles on their faces, and said, "Everyone, I have worked hard today, and I Lu Daoquan thanked you in advance." After speaking, he drank it all, he was not good at drinking, a glass of strong wine in his stomach, his face was already red, and the people saw that the master was so polite, and they also stood up one after another, raising their wine glasses, only Wei Shoushi was not guarded, as if he had something on his mind.
Mrs. Lu was smart, and she had already seen Wei Shoushi's abnormality, and patted her husband gently, who had a good heart, turned her head to look at Wei Shoushi, and said, "My lord, if you have something on your mind, you might as well listen to it all, and help you think of a way." ”
Wei Shoushi was just about to speak, everyone in the house only heard the earth shaking outside the house, as if a large group of people were coming, Wei Shoushi was stunned at first, and then frightened, and quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Lu Daoquan, and cried in his mouth: "Daoquan, it's my old Wei who can't stand you, but I can't help it, they forced me, if I don't agree, none of the seventy-five people in the Wei family will live, I owe you in this life, I Wei Shoushi will be a cow and a horse for you in the next life." ”
Although Lu Daoquan was confused, he felt a palpitation, and felt that there seemed to be some conspiracy around him, and he was just about to help Wei Shoushi up, only to hear a "bang", the door had been rudely smashed open, and nearly 100 heavy armored Jin Wuwei rode high-headed horses one by one, and dozens of crossbowmen climbed up the wall, and the bright arrows were aimed at the people of Lu Mansion.
The first one rode forward, pointed the long knife in his hand at everyone, and asked, "Where is Lu Daoquan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites?" ”
Lu Daoquan protected his wife behind him, breathed a long sigh of relief, and pretended to be calm: "Down there is Lu Daoquan, I don't know what happened to this general, who broke into Shangshu Mansion at night?" ”
Jin Wuwei, as the forbidden army of the Son of Heaven, has always covered his face with iron armor, and Mo said that Lu Daoquan had just entered Beijing not long ago, and he was Jiang Qing and other central ministers, and I am afraid that he didn't know what this group of killing machines that terrified hundreds of officials looked like. The leader turned over and dismounted, constantly turning the steel knife in his hand, and said coldly: "I have received a false accusation that Lu Daoquan colluded with foreign thieves and attempted to rebel, and his heart can be punished. ”
Lu Daoquan was a weak scholar, and when he saw the bright saber, he was already frightened, and he was stunned in place, Lu An saw this, blocked in front of Lu Dao's body, and shouted: "Bold, dare to trespass into Shangshu Mansion!" ”
That Jin Wuwei didn't say much, just one knife, and killed Lu An on the spot! sneered: "I've seen someone who is not afraid of death, and it's really rare to find death!" The big night hurt Lao Tzu to be an errand, delaying me and my brothers to drink flower wine, Your Majesty has a will, anyone who dares to disobey will be killed! ”
Lu Dao's whole liver was broken, everyone in the Lu Mansion wanted to flee from this place when they saw such a tragic situation, and Mrs. Lu was directly frightened and fainted, and for a while, the crying and shouting filled the entire Shangshu Mansion. The leader Jin Wuwei shook his head and said with a cruel smile: "It's impossible to fart when Lao Tzu speaks!" Brothers, release the arrows! "The crossbowmen on the wall were ordered, and a wave of arrows poured down, only one breath of effort, except for Lu Daoquan and Wei Shoushi, who were deliberately released to live, no one else survived!
Lu Daoquan's heart was like ashes, he fell to his knees and raised his head to the sky and roared: "God, what did I Lu Daoquan do wrong, you want to treat me like this!" ”
Doomed to go unanswered.
A Jin Wuwei rushed straight to the dining table like an unpredictable prophet, picked up the brocade box that Wei Shoushi gave to Lu Daoquan before, and handed it to the leader of the armor, who took the brocade box and sneered: "Okay, you Lu Daoquan, the ironclad evidence is here, see how you still quibble!" As he spoke, he took out a few secret letters from the brocade box, unfolded them at a glance, and shouted: "Bold Lu Daoquan, he dares to fornicate with foreign thieves, his heart can be punished!" Come on, arrest this person, and wait for the saint to send it down! ”
When the catastrophe came, Lu Daoquan's heart was like water, and he gritted his teeth and said: "There is no excuse for the crime that you want to add, Lu Mou has been frank all his life, and he was victimized by a traitor for no reason." Then he turned his head to look at Wei Shoushi, who was hiding on the side and shivering, and asked miserably: "Lord Wei, Lu asked himself, he has never owed anything to adults, why did he harm my whole family today?" ”
Wei Shoushi was also ashamed, the dignified General Yuzhou was crying at this time, he turned his head away, did not dare to look at Lu Daoquan, his voice was as thin as a mosquito fly, and said: "Lord Lu, it is my old Wei who can't stand you, but I really have no choice, if I don't obey, then dozens of people in the Wei family will not escape death." Daoquan, Lao Wei can only ignore your conscience and can't stand you, in the next life, I Wei Shoushi will be a cow and a horse for you! After speaking, he stood up violently and rushed towards the Jin Wuwei who was the leader, who snorted coldly, and showed no mercy, waving his long knife, and having another corpse under the knife.
Lu Daoquan was already in the ashes now, and he expected that he would not be able to escape this catastrophe today, so he slowly walked towards his deceased wife. I only heard the Jin Wuwei shouting behind him: "Lu Daoquan, now that the evidence is ironclad, don't hurry up and arrest it!" ”
Lu Daoquan smiled miserably: "Today, Lu was framed, Lu confessed, but there are gods in the three feet of his head, aren't you afraid of retribution!" Death is death, even if I, Lu Daoquan, am a ghost, I will not let you go! ”
When Jin Wuwei heard this, he laughed, and with a wave of his hand, one of his subordinates reported Lu Ying, who was sleeping in the back room, and said: "When you die, you dare to be hard-mouthed, today I will let you watch your wife and children die tragically in front of you." As he spoke, he lifted Lu Ying high and slammed him to the ground!
Lu Daoquan bit his lip and collapsed on the ground, two lines of bloody tears flowed out of his eyes, and his heart was filled with hatred.
At this moment, another person walked out behind the Jin Wuwei, wearing a golden battle armor, also covered with iron armor, walked to Lu Dao's whole body with a cruel smile, bent over, condescendingly looked at Lu Daoquan like a lost dog, and slowly took off his armor, revealing a face that Lu Daoquan could never have dreamed of.
After the latter saw it clearly, he was stunned, and then gritted his teeth and said, "It turned out to be you, the dog emperor!" ”
The gold-armored guard is the king of the Great Liang Kingdom, Emperor Wu Feng Jingquan, who heard Lu Daoquan's insults, but he didn't care, sneered, and said: "Although Lu Aiqing scolds, I will not be angry with a dead man, you can rest assured, after you die, I will definitely order the historian to say a few beautiful words for your Lu family, so that you Lu Daoquan will be left behind for 10,000 years!" ”
After speaking, he stood up and said with a cruel smile: "Come on, bring a knife!" Our Lu Shangshu can speak well, and today I want to cut off this human head with my own hands, so that the world can know what the fate of betraying me is! ”
On this day, a tragedy caused a sensation in the capital, the new Ministry of Rites Shangshu Lu Daoquan colluded with foreign countries, attempted to rebel, and was tragically destroyed by Jinwu Tiewei, Lu Daoquan himself was cut off with a knife, hanging above the main gate of Shangshu Mansion!
At the same time, on the Sword God Mountain in the territory of Chu State, Lu Xiong, who was originally asleep, suddenly woke up from his sleep, and his crying shook the sky, no matter how coaxed by a group of village women who had taken care of him in the past few days, they couldn't stop crying.
