Chapter 68 Rebellion
Chapter 68: Rebellion
Although it was daytime, the gate of the Lu family mansion was closed. The owner of the mansion, Lu An, sat leisurely on the Grand Master, with his eyes slightly closed and dozing.
Lu An was only in his twenties and was a little smart since he was a child. He was a little successful in both civil and military affairs. He was cruel and could be considered a character. However, he was a child of the Lu family, and the difference in rank was inevitable. His family and the patriarch Lu Hun were too different. If a child of the Lu family like him had not made great contributions to the family, he would not have been given attention. He could be sent to this mansion to stand alone, or was his father bribed the chief manager of the Lu family.
Many children of the Lu family are quite envious of Lu An's job. The best future for the children of the Lu family who have made five squads is to become the followers of some officials from the Lu family. If they follow the right master, they may be able to get a small official or a small official. But if they are a civil servant, they will be fine. If they become a military general, they will have more time to work hard. Maybe they may lose their life on the battlefield by accident. If they become a small leader of a manor like Lu An, they will be risk-free and guaranteed. Of course, it is a good job.
Lu Anxin was arrogant, but he did not take the small place of Lujia Village at all. He was determined to do something big to gain the appreciation of the clan leader or elders in his family. If he transferred him back to Qingzhou City, he might be recommended by the Lu family to the court, and he would be more than enough to serve as a local minor official.
"Fifteenth Young Master, Fifteenth Young Master, it's not good. The three people in the cellar city are clamoring to come out again." A servant hurried over and interrupted Lu An's nap.
The fifteenth young master actually does not refer to Lu An's ranking among his peers. The Lu family has many children. If they really want to discuss it one by one, it is possible that Lu will arrange it to be outside of 100 people. But he likes this title, and he has the final say in Lujia Village, so the Lu family will naturally not violate his orders.
After hearing the servant's report, Lu An's good mood disappeared and he stood up from the Grand Master's chair: "Let's go and take a look."
When Lu An arrived in the left wing room, the fierce quarrel continued, and the voices of the three people inside continued to reach the ground. The two of them were determined to come out and slapped the bottom of the water tank covered at the entrance of the cellar.
Lu An's face turned pale and said with a heavy face: "Release the water tank."
"Yes." Several servants quickly moved the water tank hard. Under the water tank was a wooden board. When the water tank weighing hundreds of kilograms was moved away, the wooden board was immediately lifted aside, revealing a square hole. Two big men couldn't wait to jump out of the hole, cursing: "I'm so suffocating."
Behind the two, there was another pretty young man climbing down with a helpless look on his face. Lu An frowned and looked at the three of them: "Three heroes, there are still servants in the village. Didn't you agree to come out at night?"
One person said in a muffled voice: "It will be done in one day or two days. Why don't you go down the cellar and stay in the cellar for more than ten days to see it? I won't want to go crazy inside."
"That's right, if a noble family like you go down, you may not be able to stand it for a long time. This damn dog government just killed a few guards and when will the people be removed?"
"Retreat." Lu An showed a hint of sneer on his face: "Although the one who killed was a guard, do you know how much the charge of assassinating the prince is? How could the government withdraw before the assassin was caught?"
"What do you mean by the surname Lu? If you dare to insult us, be careful, I will give up and surrender to the government and pull your Lu family into the water." Lu An's words made the two of them furious at the same time, and glaring at Lu An with hatred.
"Two brothers calm down. The Lu family is on the same boat as us. The Lu family will not break the bridge across the river. Mr. Lu, I don't know if I'm right." The young man with a beautiful appearance and a little gentleness said politely.
These three people were the ones who assassinated the prince outside Qingzhou City that day. The purpose of the Lu family to invite these three people was not to assassinate the prince. The real goal of assassination was the governor Wei Yi. Wei Yi served as the governor of Qingzhou for one year. He was decisive in his work and was indifferent to the various aristocratic families in Qingzhou. He angered many privileges of the aristocratic families. The Lu family had long disliked Wei Yi and wanted to get rid of it quickly.
Just assassinating the governor of a state, once it is leaked, it will bring a catastrophe to the Lu family. Although the Lu family has many children and generals with high martial arts skills, Lu Hun dared not use his family and had to send people to find candidates from other places and hired the three people in front of him for a price of up to 300 gold.
The three people in front of them are not names, but thieves who are rampant in Liaodong. The three of them form brothers of different surnames and become kings in Liaodong. They are called Changbai Three Eagle, the eldest evil eagle Meng Rang, the second blood eagle Zou Tu, the third wisdom eagle king Bo, the three of them come and go like the wind, robbing rich merchants and traveling, and committing bloody crimes. When the Sui army conquers the expedition, they hide in Goguryeo, and when the Goguryeo conquers the expedition, they hide in the Sui Dynasty, and sometimes even go to the grassland to make a vote. No one can do anything to them. The name of Changbai Three Eagle can stop children from crying in the Liaodong area.
If Yang Yong heard Wang Bo's name, he would be shocked. This was the leader of the first rebellious peasant uprising army in the Sui Wei army. Although Yang Yong was not familiar with history, he was not unfamiliar with the characters in the Romance of Sui Wei. Wang Bo dared to rebel in the seventh year of Daye and the foundation of the Sui Wei family was still very stable. He claimed to be a wise man. He wrote a song of death in Liaodong and spread rumors that were not conducive to Yang Guang's campaign against Goguryeo. He gathered tens of thousands of troops in a short time. Although he was defeated by the Sui army in less than a year, he himself escaped. Later, this person was capricious, sometimes surrendered to the official army and sometimes surrendered to the rebel army. It was not until five years after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty.
Of course, Meng Rang is also a little famous, almost at the same time as Wang Bo, but his influence is too small compared to Wang Bo. After his failure, he is immediately drowned in the torrent of history, and Yang Yong may not have heard of his name.
The three of them had no choice but to say happiness in Liaodong, but as Luo Yi took office as the captain of the Dongyi school, it was becoming increasingly difficult for Liaodong to get along. Luo Yi led tens of thousands of Khitan troops and formed a group of Khitans, which had originally split into eight divisions. In addition, Gao Baoning was wiped out, and the forces surrounding the edge of the Liaohe River suddenly changed from more than a dozen to only two sides. The name of the Changbai Three Eagles became a drag. As soon as they entered the Sui territory, they were surrounded and suppressed by the Sui army. When they entered the territory of Goguryeo, they were also surrounded and suppressed by Goguryeo. Their subordinates were killed and injured, and the three gradually became ignorant of washing their hands.
After joining the Lu family this time, the two sides hit it off. Although the three hundred gold coins were a huge sum of money, they could not completely move the three of them. The three of them were rampant for many years and accumulated wealth of thousands of gold. What impressed the three of them the most was the power of the Lu family. The Lu family promised that as long as the three could assassinate Wei Yi successfully, they would provide the three with legal identities so that they could be a rich man with peace of mind, and even just change a name and recommend them as an eighth- or ninth-rank official.
After all, although Changbai Sanying had such a big name in Liaodong before, he had just been doing business with his head hanging around his waist, and had never enjoyed it. Now that Liaodong cannot survive, he naturally thought of dispersing all his subordinates and relying on the money he stolen to be a peaceful citizen and enjoy things he had never enjoyed before.
In the end, the three of them only brought more than 20 loyal subordinates and rushed from Liaodong to Qingzhou. After arriving in Qingzhou, they quickly obtained a new identity with the Lu family's power. The Lu family also gave them hundreds of acres of good land. The Lu family's promise to them had been fulfilled, and it was time for them to serve. It was not easy to assassinate the governor of a state. The three of them had not found a chance after half a month in Qingzhou.
This court order is equivalent to cutting off the foundations of many aristocratic families in the local area, especially the Lu family is the first to be hit. Lu Hu urged the three of them to take action several times, but there was still no suitable opportunity. This time, when the prince arrived in Qingzhou, Lu Hu suddenly changed his mind and wanted to use the prince's hand to remove Wei Yi and temporarily let the three of them change to assassinate the prince.
Although Meng Rang and Zou Tu were careless, they knew that assassinating the prince was different from assassinating the assassination of the assassination of the assassination of the assassination of the assassination of the assassination of the assassination, not to mention that Wang Bo had a little bit of ink in his belly. Even the fake assassination was much more serious than the real assassination. However, the three of them had arrived in Qingzhou and were entirely dependent on the Lu family's care. Even if they refused, they had to grit their teeth and agree.
In order to prevent exposure, the three men did not take any subordinates, and they took action. After shooting an arrow, they immediately retreated to the Lu family's house. They thought they could hide for three or five days and return to the Lu family to settle their place as a rich man. Unexpectedly, the three men stayed for more than ten days at a time. Fortunately, Wang Bo knew how to endure it. Meng Rang and Zou Tu had a hot temper. When had they been in the cellar for more than ten days? If Wang Bo had not persuaded him, the two would have been able to rush out long ago, but today they would not have been willing to bear it. They would rather fight with the government than stay in this dark and narrow cellar.
Lu An didn't take Meng Rang and Zou Tu at all. These two men had martial arts skills but didn't even know a big word. At best, they were just a martial artist. They didn't know that they were sold by others. They just looked up to Wang Bo. Among the three, Wang Bo was the youngest, but they were just in their early twenties, and when they really made up their minds, most of them were Wang Bo, which convinced these two reckless men. From this point of view, Lu An did not dare to underestimate Wang Bo.
"What Wang Zhuangshi said is that the three of them worked for the Lu family this time. Although the results were not achieved, the Lu family still thanked the three of them for their adventures and was willing to protect the three of them. However, the government army has not yet withdrawn, and the three of them still have to endure it."
"Participation, patience, boy named Lu, didn't you say that the government would not withdraw if you didn't catch the assassin? How long do you want us to endure?" Blood Eagle Zou Tu sprayed a lot of spit on Lu An's face.
Lu An was extremely disgusted with this Zou Tu. He forced himself to stop smearing the saliva on his face without using his hands, but instead smiled: "Don't worry, three heroes, although the government will not withdraw its troops easily without catching the assassin, the court will move several families in Qingzhou to the capital in one month. Even if the government does not withdraw its troops, you can take the opportunity to get out.
"Bang." Zou Tu punched the pillar beside him, and the entire pillar shaking, and the dust on the beam fell down, falling all over the crowd. "I can't stand it for a month, so now I'll go out to kill the dozen or so birds."
"Second brother, calm down." Before Lu An could speak, Wang Bo had already grabbed Zou Tu who was about to go out.
Lu An had seen three people's kung fu, but he had no doubt that Zou Tu could kill more than ten soldiers in the village alone. It was easy to kill these dozen people. After killing these people, they would be exposed. The Lu family was just waiting to eliminate them. Although Zou Tu was held back by Wang Bo, Lu An was even more disgusted with Meng Rang and Zou Tu.
"No, two of these three people have a bad temper. After a long time, they must show their strength and ruin the Lu family. These three people are useless anyway. It's better not to do it and keep it going, and they will be defeated." Lu An had a bad thought in his heart, but a smile was piled on his face: "Since the three heroes are uncomfortable underground, it's okay to come out and move. However, remember not to leave the mansion."
"Hey, why are you so easy to talk to today?" Zou Tu looked at Lu An suspiciously. In the past, Lu An would never want the three of them to come out during the day.
Lu An lowered his head and covered the murderous intent in his eyes. He knew that although there were ten Lu family members in this manor, he really started to fight, even if he included himself, he could not beat anyone else among the Three Eagles. If he wanted to kill three, he could only take his wits.
"Zou Zhuangshi didn't know anything. In the past, the officers and soldiers had to do this because they had investigated too strictly. Although the officers and soldiers are still there, they have relaxed. As long as the three of them don't leave the courtyard, they will be safe."
After listening to Lu An's explanation, Sanying felt it was reasonable. Even Wang Bo was unwilling to return to the ground. Sanying started moving in the yard. When he was underground, the three of them dreamed of returning to the ground. But after moving in the yard for a while, Meng Rang and Zou Tu were already bored, but Wang Bo borrowed a thick book from Lu An and read it with relish.
"I'm so annoying, so annoying." Blood Eagle Zou Tu shouted loudly, and took off the book from Wang Bo's hand: "Three, what's the use of reading these Lao Shi's books all day long? Why not have some fun."
Wang Bo shook his head and took the book back: "What fun is it to find? Book is my fun."
Zou Tu had to let Wang Bo go and came to Meng Rang again: "Brother, aren't you bored? We brothers must have some fun. If you can't get on the ground, you'll be suffocated to death."
"What fun can I find?" Meng Rang was as bored as Zou Tu. In the past, he ate large pieces of meat and drank big bowls of wine in Liaodong, and women slept casually. Now, when he arrived at this place, he stayed in the cellar for more than ten days, and he only had some simple food every day, so women didn't even think about it.
Zou Tu's eyes lit up and he laughed: "Boss, why not ask the young man from the Lu family to find us a few girls, so that he will not be afraid of having nothing to do even if he returns to the cellar."
Zou Tu used to be happy every night, but now he hasn't touched a woman for more than half a month, so he has been tempted by lust. Although Meng Rang also likes female sex, he finally has a clear mind compared to Zou Tulai and shouted: "You are crazy, and you are still thinking about women, are you looking for death?"
"Boss, we are not looking for them. They are in groups of women in Lu family. We sell our lives to them. What's wrong with playing with a few women? To be honest, I, Blood Eagle, have played with no less than a hundred women, and have never tasted what it feels like to be from women from big families?" Zou Tu became more and more excited as he spoke, and his eyes were already filled with obscene light.
After hearing what Zou Tu said, Meng Rang was also moved. A servant of the Lu family walked past them. Meng Rang waved his hand to the servant: "Come here."
The servants here have long been told that the three of them are murderers and must not offend these three. When they heard Meng Rang call him, the servants had to come to Meng Rang's side with fear: "Master, what are you asking?"
"Go and tell the fifteenth young man in your house and find us some beautiful ladies."
"Ah." The servant shivered and stood there in a daze.
"Why don't you go quickly? Can you find a fight?" Zou Tu had already raised his fist as big as a thallium and shook his eyes in front of the servant. The servant suddenly came to his senses and rushed into the inner hall to find Lu An.
"Bastard! What do they think of the Lu family?" Lu An was so angry that he threw a good porcelain pot beside him to the ground with a crackling sound, and the porcelain pot was smashed to pieces.
"No, let's stabilize them first." Lu An stopped his impulse: "Go and tell them that women will have them, but it's too late today and it will take tomorrow, but I will kill sheep to entertain them in the evening."
Lu An didn't dare to tell the three of them himself, for fear that his anger would strike on the spot, and said in his heart: "Three stupid pigs, let you have a meal today and send it to you on your way."
In the Qingzhou Governor's Mansion, Yun Meier and Xing'er slept until almost noon before getting up. It was already the afternoon Shenshi, and the two girls were chatting with Yang Yong. Yun Meier was wearing clothes made of fairy-patterned silk in Qingzhou, and Xing'er was wearing clothes made of Yanzhou mirror flower silk, which was no less than the fairy-patterned silk. The two girls themselves were beautiful and were set against the new clothes, and their appearance became twelve minutes, making them even more beautiful.
Yang Yong was telling the two girls a joke about Cao Cao and farts, which made the two girls laugh. Yun Meier almost burst into tears: "The farts are made by pigs, and the farts are made of... Haha, young master, I'm so laughing to death, young master is so bad."
Lu Mulin walked in and saw this scene and was stunned and didn't know how to speak.
"Why, that Miss Wang hasn't left yet?" Yang Yong frowned. Miss Wang had been waiting in the governor's mansion for more than two hours. She refused to leave without seeing Yang Yong. Lu Mulin had reported it three times.
"That's right, Miss Wang said that since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is busy, she can wait. If it doesn't work today, she will come tomorrow."
Yang Yong was irritated, but he didn't expect that Miss Wang was a person who believed in his own right. Yun Meier moved her delicate body behind Yang Yong, gently knocked on Yang Yong's back, and hesitated: "Young Master, why don't you see her?"
Xing'er raised her mouth and tried her best to wink at Yun Mei'er. After the two women had bed with Yang Yong last night, their relationship improved a lot. However, Miss Wang obviously had a bad intention, but Yun Mei'er advised Yang Yong, clearly turning her arms outward, which made Xing'er very dissatisfied, but she was not able to oppose it in front of Yang Yong.
