Almighty Nongmen Phoenix

Chapter 85;

Mansion.

In the study, Wen Songtao and his son also had solemn faces.

"Father, Prime Minister Gao is obviously determined to clean up the Lu family this time."

"Although Uncle Lu was kind to you back then, we have also helped the Lu family a lot over the years. What happened this time is extraordinary."

"Or let's not get involved."

Although Wenxuan wanted to help the Lu family, this was a catastrophe for the family. At this time, the survival of the family was far more important than the kindness of the past.

"madness."

Wen Songtao snorted coldly, and glared at Wen Xuan.

"Who do you think Gao Yanming is?"

"People are dignified and left-handed. To deal with a Lu family, do you need to bother so much?"

The Lu family is just a businessman, even with his second son looking after him, but the forces behind Gao Yanming want the Lu family to perish silently, it is a breeze.

Why is it worth so much trouble to make a fuss in the court?

"You mean, he still has a backhand?"

"Your Majesty chopped off both of his arms, is he actually the one who suffers?"

Hearing this, Wen Xuan's complexion changed, and he hurriedly asked: "What do you mean, he wants to drag his second brother into the water together?"

Jiangdong Lu family, his second brother Wen Hao, the prefect of Jiangdong, has helped a lot in the past few years.

Now that the Lu family is suspected of treason, how can Wen Hao, who helped the Lu family, not be implicated?

"I've told you many times."

"When you are in a high position, you need to broaden your horizons. Don't just focus on the crisis on the surface. The crisis in the dark is more deadly."

"As for today's matter, you only want to get rid of the relationship with the Lu family, but you ignore the whereabouts of your second brother."

"Can you figure it out?"

Wen Xuan lowered his head a little ashamed.

"Also, when you were very young, I kept telling you that if it weren't for your Uncle Lu, I would not be where I am today."

"My literary family does not do ungrateful things."

"Besides, this time, we can't avoid it. Helping the Lu family is not only to make ourselves feel at ease, but also to make others have confidence in our Wen family."

"Do you understand?"

Wen Xuan is not a fool, he just cares too much about the Wen family and doesn't want to see the Wen family suffer any crisis.

Now being awakened by Wen Songtao, his selfishness is put away, and his brain suddenly becomes active.

Indeed, his family is not the only family.

There are many courtiers following them below.

When the benefactor is at a critical moment, they don't help, but avoid it. How will the people below treat them?

If the hearts of the people are scattered, the status of his Wen family with His Majesty will inevitably plummet.

At that time, the situation of the Wen family may be even more dangerous than that of the Lu family today.

"Thank you for your father's teaching. It's my son who wants to go wrong."

Seeing that he wanted to understand, Wen Songtao nodded in satisfaction.

"Father, since we want to help the Lu family, why didn't you say anything this morning?"

"He has ironclad evidence in his hand, we are too passive, and it is wrong to say more at this time."

"Besides, haven't you seen His Majesty's attitude?"

"His Majesty's attitude?"

Wen Xuan revealed the look of memory, and then his eyes lit up.

"You mean His Majesty doesn't believe that the Lu family will treason?"

"Believe it or not, who knows?"

Wen Songtao shook his head and continued, "However, at present, His Majesty does not intend to develop according to Gao Yanming's expectations."

Treason is a heinous crime. In the past, even if there was only a little evidence that seemed far-fetched, His Majesty would have swiftly and resolutely ordered the house to be ransacked.

However, today, His Majesty was not outraged. Instead, he arranged for his own people to go to Jiangdong to arrest Lu family members and go to Beijing for review.

Lu Yaoyao and Lu Kang in the capital did not mention it at all.

Such a move, on the contrary, somewhat intended to protect the Lu family by arresting him.

"In that case, should we do something?"

"Don't worry, let's watch first. In the current situation, it's best to stay the same and respond to all changes."

"Besides."

Speaking of this, Wen Songtao paused, and his smile was somewhat meaningful.

"The Lu family is not all lambs waiting to be slaughtered."

"Oh? Is there anyone else in the Lu family who is capable?"

Wenxuan showed surprise on his face.

Hearing this, Wen Songtao just smiled and said nothing.

"Miss, when Hei Yunshou comes to Beijing, shall we go directly to Gao's house?"

As soon as Qiu Yu said this, Qiu Shuang next to her shook her head while holding her forehead.

Lu Yaoyao at the side also couldn't laugh or cry.

"Then what happens after the Gao family is destroyed?"

Qiu Yu was startled, she didn't think about it.

Seeing her like this, Qiushuang knew that she hadn't considered this issue at all.

"If you don't like being a brain, talk less. Do you think it's so easy to get into the Gao family?"

"Where is your capital?"

An important place in Gyeonggi, there are tens of thousands of troops in the Western Suburb Camp outside, the Imperial City Imperial Guard inside, and the five city soldiers and horses.

There are at least one hundred thousand people inside and outside.

What about Heiyunshou?

There were only [-] people in total, and everyone was very strong, and they also had all kinds of powerful equipment carefully arranged by Lu Yaoyao.

But in the face of an army of [-], it can only be crushed.

"Not everything needs to be fought and killed."

"I let Hei Yunshou go to Beijing to plan for the worst outcome."

"I have other ways to deal with the Gao family."

She has spent a lot of energy cultivating everyone in Hei Yunshou, and she will not send them all into a dangerous situation unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Oh? What is the lady going to do?"

"Who is standing behind the Gao family?"

Lu Yaoyao asked back.

"Everyone knows this, isn't it the big gentry?"

"Then why can the gentry become the backing of the Gao family?"

Qiu Yu pondered for a moment, then continued; "They control most of the country's economy and land."

"They also relied on paper and book printing to win over most of the literati in the world."

Qiushuang on the side also added.

"Correct."

"Then who do you think dislikes them the most?"

Lu Yaoyao smiled and continued to ask.

"That goes without saying, of course it's the emperor."

Qiu Shuang seemed to have thought of something, turned to look at Lu Yaoyao and asked, "Miss, don't you want to attack the nobles?"

"Qiu Shuang, find a way for our people to contact His Highness the First Prince and send a message. I will wait for him at Baizhen Building at noon tomorrow."

Hearing this, Qiushuang nodded, turned and walked out.

In the evening of that day, His Royal Highness the First Prince received a message.

It just so happened that Wang Yu, the heir son of Lord Zhen Guo, was also there. He frowned immediately when he heard the news.

"The Miss Lu's appointment to see His Highness at this time is probably for the affairs of the Lu family."

The eldest prince obviously thought of this too.

To be honest, the matter of the Lu family is indeed a bit tricky this time.

"The cousin thinks whether I will go?"

Being able to ask this question already shows that the eldest prince does not want to get involved in this matter.

"This time, Prime Minister Gao made it clear that he wanted to kill the Lu family."

"Although our relationship with the Gao family is a bit delicate at present, it is still in order to completely tear our face apart. Your Highness is in a critical period. I don't think it is necessary to get involved."

"It's just a mere Lu family. Compared with the position of the crown prince, it's really insignificant. Don't lose the big because of small things."

The eldest prince squinted his eyes and nodded secretly in his heart.
