Turbulent Times Chapter 990: The Ruthless Man Lu Bian
At this time, the person sent by Shen Guoer brought a message. Zhang Tiangang handed a scroll to Wang Junlin from the window of the carriage. , with some shock on his face, he sighed: "Your father, Lord Lu, is indeed a man... He is worthy of being the head of a thousand-year-old family. Compared with that Yang Su, he is not bad."
Hearing this, Lu Youwei's heart skipped a beat. He knew about Yang Su's fake death, so he vaguely had a guess. At the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief. He was always worried that Wang Junlin would force him to kill his father. Although this time he became his father's abandoned son, his father didn't care about his son, but his father had many sons, but he only had one father after all, so how could he do it.
Sure enough, what Wang Junlin said next proved Lu Youwei's conjecture, but it was not all what he thought. Wang Junlin seemed to know what Lu Youwei was thinking, and said with a half-smile: "Your father is just Thinking about committing suicide, but he hasn’t committed suicide yet, naturally because he wanted to commit suicide when I led the army to Lu’s Town, and at that time the news spread that he was forced to death by me, the prefect.”
Wang Junlin finally sighed: "This trick is so hateful!"
Lu Youwei's face changed, and his heart was extremely complicated, because he didn't know whether his father wanted to fake death or really wanted to commit suicide.
Wang Junlin sighed, and continued: "At that time, with the prestige of the Lu family in the hearts of the people in Fanyang County, at least the hundreds of thousands of tenants under the Lu family will probably hate me, and your father is famous all over the world. Great Confucianism, the dean of Fanyang Lu's Academy, nearly half of Lu's scholars are from Lu's Academy, and I'm afraid these people will also hate me very much."
"In short, your father's plan is very good. He died like this, and it was worth it. It's wonderful!" When Wang Junlin said this, his expression was cold, and there was a hint of mockery in his eyes. How could Lu Bian be compared to him? As early as more than a month ago, he had arranged for the Intelligence Department of the Wulin Guild and the Intelligence Department of the Blue Yiwei Mansion to collect all the black materials of the Lu family under the coordination and arrangement of Shen Guoer. In the past month or so, a Xiaoyu Theater has been opened in each of the eight counties and counties of Fanyang County. The business is booming. A drama performance was announced to the public.
Wang Junlin is very aware of the role of storytellers and drama performances in guiding public opinion. You must know that the vast majority of people have always lacked the ability to judge, and they all follow others. .
I think in later generations, people's cultural level is so high, but those exaggerated advertisements can guide some people to consume some products, so that those traffic stars' advertising endorsement fees are scary.
A TV drama or a novel in which the author randomly edited the plot, some people even regard it as history or a social phenomenon.
Even a story full of loopholes made up by anyone on the headlines or in the WeChat circle will be believed by many people to be true, and they will gossip about it.
That's why Wang Junlin never believed in nonsense like 'the eyes of the masses are discerning'. There are always a few people who can see the truth through the clouds, and most of these few people are scholars, so Wang Junlin I never worried about what the hundreds of thousands of tenants in the Lu family thought, but it took a little more effort to think about the ideas of these scholars in Fanyang County.
Wang Junlin got out of the carriage, rode on the back of the blood-maned horse, and said to Xiang Xiang: "Now that Lu Bian is about to commit suicide, what do you think we should do now?"
Perfume thought about it for a while, and said: "In fact, many times, how a thing will go is all about the order of the dead."
Wang Junlin was stunned for a moment, with a pensive look on his face
Xiang Xiang said: "Obviously it is the master who wants Lu Bian to die, but if he dies before the Lord wants him to die, some troubles will arise for no reason."
"This suzerain of the Lu family has saved countless poor people in Fanyang County over the years. If he wants to discredit him, this girl, Guo'er, has a heavy burden!" The prefect was bullied and humiliated by the prefect, and he could not bear the oppression of the prefect for many days. When he led the army to the gate, he hanged himself in anger."
"This Lu Bian wants to show his ambition by death." Wang Junlin scolded with a smile: "Lu Youwei, Lu Youde, Lu Bian, these Lu family members are all powerful characters. The grandson is the bait, it is already cruel enough, I don't want Lu Bian to be cruel to himself."
"My lord thinks that Lu Bian really wants to commit suicide instead of feigning death?" Xiang Xiang looked skeptical, obviously he suspected that Lu Bian was planning to feign death.
After all, there is no one in this world who wants to die. Even though Suzerain Lu is very old, the breath of life has flowed out for several years, and he has had enough to enjoy, but he still doesn't want to die.
The Lu family has a very good reputation in Fanyang County. When encountering natural disasters and man-made disasters, he never forgets to open a shop, sell porridge, support students and other good deeds. Such a great existence as living Buddha and living Bodhisattva, so that today's Fanyang County folks, even in the homes of some Lu family's tenants, some people began to erect a living shrine for the Lu family suzerain.
The patriarch of the Lu family obviously didn't connect the birth of the shrine with his own lifespan, nor did he think that after the shrine was erected, he could still...or how many days should he live? Recently, he has focused all his attention on dealing with the menacing and pervasive threat of the wolf king Junlin sent by His Majesty the Emperor. He has already drawn up a corresponding plan, and even five years ago when Yang Guang ascended the throne, he had already After seeing Yang Guang's character and character clearly, he started preparations at that time, and that's when the three thousand private soldiers in Houshan appeared.
"If I'm not mistaken, after our army surrounded Lu's ancestral house, he would die immediately, and then arranged a lot of people to spread the news in a short period of time." After some analysis, Wang Junlin's thinking became clear.
"That's right, only in this way can Lu Bian's death bring the greatest benefit to Lu Shi." Perfume added.
Wang Junlin nodded and said, "Fortunately, Guo'er is very capable, and she found out the news in advance. In this case, we might as well walk a little slower, and I will talk to Lu Youwei again."
Wang Junlin got into the carriage and said a few words to Lu Youwei, then came out and said to Spring and Autumn Valley Master: "Senior Spring and Autumn, please take Lu Youwei to Lu's ancestral house ahead of time, what are you doing?" You don't have to worry about it, you just need to protect Lu Youwei's safety."
