Chapter 872: Big Character Poster
On this night, there was no moon or stars, and the whole capital was shrouded in darkness. Suddenly, a figure appeared in the alley, and this figure pasted a piece of paper with large characters on the wall, pasted it, and quickly left. The same scene happened in many places in the capital.
The next day, many people went out and found the big-character posters posted on the walls. Some literate people reflexively looked at it, and some timid people hurriedly left after reading a few lines. Those who were bold not only did not go away, but after reading it, they also told those who could not read and write about what was written on the big-character poster.
Because the big-character posters were posted in the small streets and alleys, and when the government got the news, the matter had already spread.
Yan Wushuang was having breakfast when he saw Meng Nian walking in with a look on his face. Yan Wushuang put down the ivory chopsticks in his hand and wiped his mouth before asking, "What's going on?" Makes you so hot. ”
Meng Nian didn't speak, but handed a large character to Yan Wushuang and said, "Lord Wang, this thing was found in the morning, and the streets and alleys are all pasted. "As for who did it, I know with my toes. Meng Nian thought that Yuxi would use assassination to take revenge on their prince, but he didn't expect to use such a vicious method.
This big-character poster is actually a list of Yan Wushuang's various crimes. Yan Wushuang has done a lot of evil things, even killing two emperors, indiscriminately killing innocent people and not letting go of even children, forcibly accepting the first empress Han Yuchen as a concubine, and using the little emperor as a puppet to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes and so on.
However, the first item on the list of crimes is not to kill the king, nor to kill innocents indiscriminately, let alone to force the first queen to be a concubine, but to state what Yan Wushuang did to the Duan family.
Yan Wushuang quickly changed his face and asked, "How did Duan Xinrong know about the Duan family's affairs?" On that day, Duan Yushi was ready to help him make public the crime of Zhou Xuan and the Song family colluding with the Donghu people to commit treason, but the news was leaked, which attracted Zhou Xuan and the Song family to fight back. He was angry that Duan Yushi leaked the news and lost the evidence he had collected with great difficulty. So although he saved Duan Xinrong, he threw her into the Qinglou after saving her. As for the later evidence, it was indeed Yan Wushuang who found someone to imitate it.
The reason why Yuxi put the affairs of the Duan family at the forefront was to let everyone see Yan Wushuang's cold-blooded and ruthless true face. Duan Yushi helped Yan Wushuang ruin his family, but Yan Wushuang was not only ungrateful but sent Duan Yushi's granddaughter to the Qinglou as a prostitute. Yan Wushuang treats his benevolent descendants so ruthlessly and unjustly, how can such a person be worthy of working for him.
Meng Nian shook his head and said, "Duan Xinrong can't know about this. Otherwise, she wouldn't have stayed in the Qinglou obediently. "Very few people know about this, and he doesn't understand where Han Yuxi learned about it. However, what is certain is that this matter is definitely not what Duan Xin told her.
Yan Wushuang didn't take these accusations of killing innocents to heart at all. What is done is what is done, he never denies it. But now Han Yuxi has come to this hand, but with sinister intentions. Once someone believes this, it is impossible to die for him anymore. Yan Wushuang said: "This matter must be covered up as much as possible." ”
Meng Nian said with some worry: "Lord Wang, this poster has been posted all over the streets and alleys, and it has already spread. It can't be concealed. "Back then, Meng Nian didn't persuade Yan Wushuang. It's just that Yan Wushuang's decision to sit down, no one can change it.
Although he was an enemy with Han Yuxi, Meng Nian couldn't admit that Han Yuxi's counterattack this time was ruthless and vicious, stumping them all. There is no way to prove this kind of thing, which is why it is said that rumors stop at the wise, because the more you explain the matter, it will not subside, and then the more troublesome it will become, and there is no way to be good. So this loss, they are determined.
Yan Wushuang said: "Burn all these things." If you pass on my words again, all the criticisms will be arrested. "This woman is really the nemesis of his numerology, and she doesn't take advantage of her.
Although Meng Nian felt that this was not a good way, he could only do it now. However, the negative impact must be significant. If you want to eliminate it, you can't do it in a short period of time.
This time, the big-character posters are posted all over the streets and alleys, and it is difficult to know it. There are many people who even have hidden this big-character poster!
Second Master Lu read the things written on the big-character poster to his father, and after reading it, he said: "Dad, Princess Pingxi's counterattack this time has greatly damaged Yan Wushuang's reputation. "Killing the monarch and treating the new monarch as a puppet, everyone knows these things. The most interesting thing is the first one, if what is said above is true, the people who follow Yan Wushuang will definitely have reservations.
Old lady Lu asked, "What is written on this may not be true?" Such a secret matter, not to mention that Han Yuxi and Yunqing have no way to investigate, even Han Jianming can't know about it. "So Old Lady Lu thinks that this is Yuxi framing Yan Wushuang.
Second Master Lu shook his head and said, "Duan Yushi's granddaughter is now in the northwest, and there is a good chance that she sued Princess Pingxi about this matter." "Second Master Lu thinks that it is impossible for Yunqing and Yuxi to make up such a thing, otherwise the style will be too low.
Old Lady Lu snorted and said, "You have a point, but we don't want to get involved in this matter." When immortals fight, it is often others who suffer. "Yan Wushuang is not a good stubble, and Han Yuxi is not a fuel-efficient lamp. It's better for them to be just bystanders.
Second Master Lu was silent and said, "Dad, Yan Wushuang has a tyrannical temperament and acts only according to his preferences, such a person can't go far." "I have been working under Yan Wushuang for two years, and I also know Yan Wushuang's temperament. Such a person is a hero, but he is definitely not a benevolent man.
How could Old Lady Lu not know what Second Master Lu was thinking, and said: "Han Jianming was able to flee with his whole family that day, because the situation was too chaotic for their family to leave the capital. Now the shape is different, we will be noticed by Yan Wushuang's people if we make a slight move, and then the family will die and be killed by him. "When people are old, they want their families to be safe.
Second Master Lu knew this and said, "Dad, I want to leave a way out for our Lu family. "There were often rebellions in Shu before, but with Lu Boda here, the situation was still under control. Since Lu Boda's death, the deputy general has fought for power, and Lu Gang is too young to suppress it, and now a two-legged situation has formed. The internal strife greatly affected their strength. Once Yunqing leads his troops to attack Shudi, Shu will definitely not be protected. There is no future with Yan Wushuang, and with Yunqing and Han Yuxi, there may be a great future.
Old Mrs. Lu did not agree: "Once this matter is leaked out, the lives of the family will definitely be lost." "Second Master Lu's three sons are all in Shudi, and his daughter is in the northwest. However, the people in the big house should keep filial piety, and all of them will go back to the capital.
After saying this, Old Lady Lu's cloudy eyes showed a glint of history: "Second brother, your eldest brother's bones are not cold, and you can't do such things that are inferior to beasts." ”
When Second Master Lu heard this, he was very hurt: "Dad, I did this for the Lu family. Otherwise, when Yan Wushuang loses power in the future, the Lu family will definitely be wiped out. "He is selfish, but more for the future of the Lu family.
No matter what Second Master Lu said, Old Lady Lu disagreed. In the end, Second Master Lu walked out of the courtyard with a disappointed face. Back in the backyard, Second Master Lu said to Second Mrs. Lu with some frustration: "Dad didn't agree. ”
Second Mrs. Lu said: "I said a long time ago that the old lady would not agree, you don't believe it." The old lady is old, and she just wants the family to be safe. But how long can the situation be so chaotic now! Although Second Mrs. Lu does not understand government affairs, she knows that the situation in the northwest is getting better and better when she looks at what her daughter said in her letter to her grandson.
Second Mrs. Lu is a mother, she has no noble thoughts of loyalty to the monarch and serving the country, she just wants to keep her sons safe. Yunqing is as powerful as Han Yuxi, if his son goes against them, he will only die. That's why she wants her son to defect to Yunqing, not to seek a future, but to save his life.
Second Master Lu shook his head and said, "No." ”
Second Mrs. Lu couldn't understand her husband, so she begged Luo Shuigui to help her send a letter to Lu Gang without telling her husband. Luo Shuigui didn't agree at first, but Second Lady Lu knelt and begged, and he was finally defeated.
Second Master Lu came back from the yamen, and Luo Shuigui had already left the capital. Second Master Lu was so angry that he couldn't do it: "How can you be good at advocating this?" Did you know that this would kill everyone? ”
Second Lady Lu said: "I only know that if I don't send this letter, I will have to send a white-haired person to a black-haired person at that time." "She would rather die herself than be in danger to her son.
Everyone is gone, and there is no point in arguing anymore. Seeing that her husband was silent, Second Mrs. Lu said softly: "Didn't I receive a letter from Shandong two days ago, saying that Agui's daughter-in-law was sick. Master, if someone asks, you say that Agui went back to his hometown to visit relatives. Luo Shuigui's hometown is in Shandong, only a hundred miles away from Suzhou. Three years ago, Luo Shuigui saw that the capital was not peaceful, so he asked his daughter-in-law to return to his hometown with the child. A few days ago, Luo Shuigui's son sent a letter saying that his mother was seriously ill and asked him to go back.
Because the matter was not urgent, Second Mrs. Lu asked Luo Shuigui to go back to her hometown to visit her daughter-in-law first, and then go to Shudi. In this way, it is not noticeable.
Second Master Lu nodded and said, "Since you have planned everything, then let's do it!" "Everyone has selfish intentions, if the sons take refuge in Yunqing and Han Yuxi, they can not only save their lives, but also find a good future. As for him and his wife, they were half buried in the ground. If Yan Wushuang wants to kill, let him kill him!
Second Mrs. Lu was really relieved when she heard this. If the husband is resolutely opposed, he will definitely send someone to chase Luo Shuigui back. Now this expression xiàn also agrees with her approach.
In fact, Second Mrs. Lu would do this, not only because she wanted to protect her son, but also because the big house really bores her. In order to protect this big family, her husband took refuge in Yan Wushuang with infamy. But Dafang is not only not grateful, but always thinks that her husband is in today's high position because of the light of the uncle. Don't say anything about finding trouble for her husband every now and then, and pick and choose from her, and if she is not satisfied, she will point to Sang and scold Huai, and if she doesn't know, she really owes the husband and wife a big house. After a long time, no matter how warm my heart is, it will be cold. Of course, it is the heart of Second Master Lu who is cold, and Second Mrs. Lu has always disliked the big house, but she has always hidden her feelings before. R1148
