Luo Xin fell into deep thought, and the room fell silent again. Everyone frowned slightly and pondered. Time passed in silence, and the charcoal in the charcoal brazier gradually burned to ashes, and the temperature in the room gradually became cold. Luo Ping and Luo Xin are people who practice martial arts, and they haven't felt anything yet, but the two brothers Lu Tingfang are trembling. Lu Tingjiang hurriedly stood up, came to the door and pushed open the door for Lu Daqing to add charcoal, and then returned to the table again and sat down, looking at Luo Xin.
"Teacher, what changes have happened to the border gates recently?"
Lu Tingfang looked stunned, and then shook his head a little frustratedly and said, "The teacher has been living in a shallow way recently, and the news has been blocked. ”
"What ......if" Luo Xin's gaze swept over the three people: "If something happened at the border pass, then this time Jinyiwei didn't come for the teacher and the second uncle, but for the border pass." I just learned that the second uncle had a connection with the generals guarding the pass, or the people outside the pass, and wanted to develop the second uncle's people into a line of Jinyiwei. If this is the case, the second uncle will not be in any danger. However, this was later glued by the brocade guard. ”
Lu Tingfang and Lu Tingjiang's expressions were relaxed, although they would be glued by Jinyiwei, but at least there was nothing in front of them, which was also a great luck in misfortune.
"Xin'er, do you think something happened at the border gate?"
"It should be!" Luo Xin nodded and said softly: "Otherwise, Jinyiwei will not let go of the second uncle, it seems that they just want to use the second uncle, but they don't want to harm the second uncle." ”
Although the faces of the two Lu Tingfang brothers eased from pale, they were still ugly, and no one wanted to have a relationship with Jinyiwei, especially a scholarly family like Lu Tingfang. At the moment, there is no danger, but I don't know when I will be eaten by Jinyiwei and there will be no scum left. And once he got in touch with Jinyiwei, his reputation in Shilin would be stinky.
"We have to find out if there is anything wrong at the border gate." Luo Xin said in a condensed voice: "The exam is suspended today. I'll go to the county office in a while and ask Zhou Zhixian. If there is no accurate information, I will send Lu Zhonglian to the border pass to inquire. ”
Lu Tingfang waved his hand and said, "Xin'er, don't get too involved in this matter. You are responsible for inquiring about Zhou Zhi County, and I will send another person to the border gate. ”
"Good!" Luo Xin didn't shirk either, and nodded yes.
"That'...... What if it's not something at the border? Lu Tingjiang said worriedly.
"What's going on with that Lu Fang? How could he be captured by the Jinyi Guard? Luo Xin asked in a condensed voice.
"He's a white-eyed wolf!" Lu Tingjiang's face immediately became angry.
Luo Xin looked at him quietly, his calm gaze calmed Lu Tingjiang, let out a long breath, sorted out his thoughts, and said:
"The two brothers Lu Fang and Lu Yuan are relatives of our Lu family for five generations, and they should call me uncle according to their generation. At first, their family had a poor life. And they were sent to my house. In the past few decades, I have not treated the two brothers badly, and these two brothers are indeed competitive, one manages the outside business for me, and the other manages the affairs of the family for me.
After the weaving business was ceded to the Yan Party, there was almost no business outside, but there were still a few shops in the north. I handed over those shops to him to take care of, and let Lu Yuan concentrate on managing the affairs of the house. A few days ago, he sent Lu Fang to take a walk in a few shops, and then he disappeared. Then yesterday he brought Shen Lian and Chen Bao to see me and my eldest brother. ”
"Lu Yuan is here too?" Luo Xin couldn't help but speak.
"It's coming!" Lu Tingjiang sat down on the chair like a deflated ball and said, "He has joined Jinyiwei." ”
"Joined the Jinyi Guard?"
"Yes!"
He ...... Didn't say anything to you? ”
Lu Tingjiang shook his head and said, "He didn't say a word. ”
Luo Xin frowned, thought for a while, and said, "Second uncle, you think about it calmly. Will Lu Fang take the initiative to defect to Jinyiwei to report the second uncle because the Lu family lost power, or will he be caught by Jinyiwei and can't survive? ”
The anger on Lu Tingjiang's face gradually disappeared, and he slowly calmed down and said, "I think it should be Jinyiwei who knew that I had a connection with Guanwai and arrested Lu Fang." He couldn't stand it before he said it. He has been with me for decades, and he will not take the initiative to report me for trying to get into the middle of my family. Besides, even if he joins Jinyiwei, it will be a position the size of a sesame seed. Where is it better to be at ease in my house? ”
"Why did Jin Yiwei know that you had a connection with Guanwai?"
"Yan Dang's seizure of my family property can't be hidden from Jinyiwei, and ...... I may not be able to hide the smuggling outside the customs. ”
Luo Xin was shocked when he heard this, and only then did he realize the terrible Daming Jinyiwei. In the past, I just read history, but now I am immersed in the scene, and the feeling is absolutely different.
"And ......" Lu Tingjiang's face was a little hesitant.
"What?"
"Lu Yuan's affairs have been known to Lu Yuan, and I see that Lu Yuan's expression is not right, and I feel that there is something wrong with the people in the house."
Lu Tingfang was shocked in her heart: "How could it not?" ”
Their gaze wandered a little, and they ...... I stumbled upon a few family members gathered in Lu Yuan's room, and they were all old people in the mansion. ”
Lu Tingfang's face changed, and he stared at Lu Tingjiang and said, "Do you still have some dirty things that Lu Fang doesn't know about, but Lu Yuan knows?" ”
Luo Xin's heart also hung up, Lu Yuan was away all the year round, contacting the affairs inside and outside the Guan. And Lu Yuan has been dealing with the Lu Mansion all year round, and I am afraid that there will really be some secrets that Lu Yuan does not know and Lu Yuan knows.
"This ......" Lu Tingjiang hesitated: "There is always something ......"
"Say no more!" Lu Tingfang waved his hand, his face became extremely ugly, and said, "Lu Yuan can't stay." ”
"No way!"
Before Lu Tingjiang could speak, Luo Xin categorically vetoed: "Teacher, now that Lu Fang is in Jinyiwei, if his younger brother Lu Yuan is eliminated, have you thought about Lu Fang's feelings?" Also, I don't know how the second uncle has been running for decades, but since Lu Yuan can gather a few old people in the mansion to gather, the second uncle already has a tendency to be set aside. Once Lu Yuan is eliminated, can the second uncle ensure that those old people in the house do not react? Won't exacerbate the contradictions? ”
"How's that good?" Lu Tingjiang's face showed an anxious look.
Luo Xin pondered for a moment, and said with a flash of inspiration in his heart: "Liu Bang seals Yongya. ”
Lu Tingfang and Lu Tingjiang fell into deep thought when they heard this, Luo Ping didn't understand on the side, so he asked softly:
"Xin'er, what do you mean?"
Luo Xin explained softly: "This is an allusion, it is said that after Liu Bang became the emperor, he has not rewarded the meritorious heroes for a long time, so that those important ministers are afraid in their hearts, they are afraid that the cunning rabbit will die, and the lackeys will cook, so they will get together to discuss what to do?"
