Invincible special police swept the three kingdoms

Chapter 142 Lu Xun

Wu County, Lukang Mansion.

Seeing Lu Kang coming back in good spirits, the servant hurriedly poured tea and water for him.

"Bring me Brother Jian and Boyan, housekeeper." Lu Kang took a sip of tea and said to the housekeeper.

"Yes, sir." The servant said.

After a while, a man dressed gracefully and luxuriously and a child who was only about four years old walked into the hall of the Lu family.

"Brother, is there anything going on at the meeting of the county governor's mansion today?" The one who asked the question was Lu Kang's younger brother, Lu Jian, named Zijun.

"The result is not bad. I was promoted by Zhao Lei from the former meritorious officer of Wu County to the meritorious officer of Yangzhou, but..." Lu Kang said hesitantly.

"Brother, but what?" Lu Jian said.

"However, I always feel very uneasy in my heart. Since this new governor took office, I have a sense of crisis every day. Moreover, I feel that this governor seems not very friendly to our family, unlike when Yan Baihu was the prefect. "Lu Kang said.

"Brother, I'm worrying too much. Look at that Zhao Lei, who was just promoted to the position of the eldest brother, how could he be unfriendly to our family? If he is not friendly, why did he still want to be promoted to the position of the eldest brother?" Lu Jian asked.

"The problem is that when Zhao Lei was appointed as an official, none of the other Wu County officials and family members were used, and only I was promoted. This is a bit strange." Lu Kang said while taking another sip of tea.

"Zhao Lei only used the eldest brother?" Lu Jian asked.

Lu Kang didn't answer, just nodded slightly.

"My lord, why did my lord promote Lu Kang alone today, and what my lord's intention is, please let me know." Neither Jia Xu nor Cheng Yu understood Zhao Lei's intention.Zhao Lei had previously said that he wanted to bring down these aristocratic families in order to maintain the stability of Wu County, but why did he take a 360-degree turn in his attitude after a while, making Cheng Yu and Jia Xu dizzy.

Zhang Han actually knew part of the reason, and he was the first to bear the brunt. Lu Kang was Lu Xun's father, and Lu Xun was a talent in the late Three Kingdoms period.In other words, for the cultivation of Yangzhou's later talents, the Lu family cannot be eliminated.You must know that most of the heroes of Soochow came from aristocratic families, such as Lu Xun, Gu Yong, Yu Xu, Yan Yan, He Qi, and Xu Sheng.Everyone represents their own aristocratic family, so these small families can be cleaned up, and these big families must not be offended.

When Zhang Han was thinking about it, Lu Su gave the second reason. Lu Su said: "Wenhe and Zhongde, the reason is actually that the master didn't beat the family of Wu County to death. The reason is very simple. Because the master wants to Completely disintegrate the family alliance in Wu County."

Hearing Lu Su's words, Jia Xu and Cheng Yu bowed their heads in silence, as if they were thinking about something.

"My lord, I don't know if Zijing is right?" Lu Su asked Zhao Lei with a smile.

Zhao Lei smiled, nodded, and motioned for Lu Su to continue talking.At this time, Zhang Han was also listening to Lu Su's main reason with great interest.

"Everyone, please think about it, why did the lord only promote Lu Kang as the meritorious officer of Yangzhou today, while the other Wu County officials and aristocratic families were not used at all? The reason is very simple. As the first family in Wu County, the Lu family's own financial resources, Manpower and momentum have a certain influence in Wu County. If we kill them and all the families including the Lu family, then they will inevitably unite to resist the lord. Although the lord holds the military power, they dare not Act rashly. But if one day Yangzhou starts a war, the lord, as the governor of this state, will definitely raise troops. At this time, when the lord goes out, Wu County is empty, then those aristocratic families will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to attack our army's base camp Some unfavorable things happen. As the saying goes, we must first settle down when fighting against the outside world. Only by governing Wu County well, so that there is no internal threat, then we can go out of Wu County and expand our land. Therefore, the lord will promote Lu Kang, that is, In order to win over the Lu family and make everyone in Wu County think that the Lu family supports the Lord." Lu Su said.

"But why did the other aristocratic families beat them to death?" Cheng Yu asked.

"Brother Zhongde may not know much about the situation in Wu County. In Wu County, these small families generally obey the orders of the Lu family. We have a good relationship with the Lu family, so they naturally dare not make trouble, and just promoting the Lu family is not enough. Promoting other aristocratic families can have the effect of separating them, causing them to fight each other, and we can reap the benefits." Lu Su said.

Cheng Yu and Jia Xu nodded, and looked at Lu Su with admiration.

"No, Zijing is not quite right yet." Zhao Lei said with a smile at this time.

"My lord, please enlighten me." Lu Su bowed to Zhao Lei and said.

"My purpose is not to reap the benefits of being a fisherman, but to delete and select these aristocratic families." Zhao Lei said.

"What does my lord mean?" Lu Su looked at Zhao Lei with an incredulous look and said.

"Except for the Lu family, I want other families to disappear completely in Wu County." Zhao Lei said.

"My lord, you mean to kill them?" Jia Xu said with a sinister smile. Hearing this kind of thing, Jia Xu became excited again.

"No, I just want to uproot their family business and drive them out of Wu County." Zhao Lei said.

"Then why did my lord only keep the Lu family?" Jia Xu asked in confusion.

"Because I think Lu Kang is still a talent, and I will be valuable if I keep it. Besides, it would be a bit embarrassing if the entire Wu County doesn't even have a family." Zhao Lei laughed.

Jia Xu nodded and asked, "Then how does my lord want to deal with these small families?"

"My thoughts are like this..." Zhao Lei whispered to several people.

"Haha, the lord often says that Wen He is a poisonous man, but the subordinates think that the lord might as well give way!" Jia Xu laughed.

"Man, do you think this method is feasible?" Zhao Lei asked.

Zhang Han thought for a while, and then said with a smile: "It is possible, but it is a bit cruel."

"No poison, no husband." Zhao Lei said, in order to ensure the stability of his political power in Wu County, Zhao Lei must be ruthless and eliminate all those who would threaten him.

"Zilong, we will bring soldiers and horses later, let's go and greet Lu Kang Gongcao." Zhang Han said with a smile.

Zhao Yun was inexplicable.

While Lu Kang and Lu Jian were discussing, a child quietly walked up behind his father, put his arms around his father, and said: "My father called Xun'er, but he only talked to his uncle and ignored Xun'er, why? "

The four-year-old child standing behind Lu Kang will be the future governor of Soochow, Lu Xun and Lu Boyan.

"Haha, Boyan, you should have heard what father and uncle said just now, what do you think?" Lu Kang said.

Outsiders may find it strange that Lu Kang asked such a thing to a child, but the Lu family is no stranger to it.Lu Xun was able to read and walk at the age of one.At the age of three, he began to practice writing and reading.If he arrives in modern times, he will definitely be called a gifted child.

"Daddy wants me to say, you must kiss me first." Lu Xun said coquettishly.

"Okay, haha, you brat." Lu Kang hugged Lu Xun and kissed him with a smile.

"Daddy, my boy guesses that Inspector Zhao Lei wants to divorce Daddy from the other uncles of the aristocratic family, but I can't figure out why he wants to divorce Daddy," Lu Xun said.

"Divorce, why didn't I think of it." Lu Kang said to himself.

Lu Kang put Lu Xun down and remained silent.

"Brother, if this is the case, shouldn't we send a few people to other aristocratic families to vent their anger!" Lu Jian said.

"Does Zhao Lei really think so?" Lu Kang doubted.

"Master, master, it's not good." The butler ran in in a panic and shouted.

"Housekeeper, what's the matter?" Lu Kang questioned.

"Outside, outside the mansion. There are a lot of officers and soldiers here," said the housekeeper.

"What?" Lu Kang stood up all of a sudden, what is Zhao Lei doing here?
Lu Kang quickly followed the butler to the door, only to see that his guards had already shown their weapons and guarded the door.Suddenly, with a clang, Lu Kang saw Zhao Yun cut off the weapons of his guards with a long sword in his hand.

"Lu Gongcao, your way of welcoming guests is so special!" Zhao Lei's voice came from outside the door.

Lu Kang looked up and saw that Zhao Lei was walking towards him with a smile.

"My subordinates will refer to Lord Inspector." Lu Kang hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Could it be that the way the Lu family treats their guests is to show off their weapons?" Zhao Lei mocked Lu Kang again.

"Put away your weapons and retreat them all. This is Mr. Governor, how can you be so rude?" After hearing Zhao Lei's words, Lu Kang was sweating profusely, and hurriedly scolded the guard,
Zhao Lei snorted coldly and did not speak.

"Since Lord Inspector claims to be a guest, why did he bring so many soldiers here? Do you have to bring troops to greet you when you are a guest at someone's house?" A childish voice came out from behind Lu Kang.

Lu Kang was startled by the voice, turned his head and saw that the previous words were said by Lu Xun,
Zhao Lei looked for the source of the sound with great interest. When he saw that the sound was made by a child, he suddenly felt amused.

He walked up to Lu Xun, bent down and squatted down, and said, "Little devil, what's your name?"

"I won't tell you, old ghost." Lu Xun said when he heard Zhao Lei call him a little ghost, and became unhappy.

"Xun Er, don't be rude, hurry up and salute the governor." Lu Kang scolded, and while speaking, Lu Kang pulled Lu Xun hard behind him, as if he was afraid that Zhao Lei would eat Lu Xun.

"Lu Gongcao, is this your son?" Zhao Lei stood up and asked Lu Kang.

"Master Inspector, yes, this is Gou'er, Lu Xun, Lu Boyan." Lu Kang said.

"Daddy, drive them away, they are rude and broke into my house without authorization." Lu Xun continued.

"Shut up and go back to the room." Lu Kang said hastily. Although the childish words were innocent, Lu Kang couldn't figure out Zhao Lei's temper, and was afraid that Zhao Lei would take Lu Xun's words seriously.
