Chapter 707 The imperial decree is down!
Emperor Xinde's imperial edict caused a sensation in Jinling. Emperor Xinde's intention was very simple, which was to appointed Lu Zheng, the Minister of Personnel, as the chief marching officer of Pingjing Road, commanded the three armies to guard the capital and resist the enemy outside the capital.
After this decree, Emperor Xinde's second decree was to be the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, the chief assistant of the dynasty Lu Shanchang was the crown prince's tutor, the Gu family was born as the crown prince's tutor, the Lu family and the Gu family were on the same side, and their status reached its peak.
In comparison, the second will did not cause much trouble at all, because the content of the first will was really shocking.
In the current situation, the Song family in Longyou rebelled, and the army had already surrounded Bingzhou City. Bingzhou was in danger, and the pass and capital were completely exposed to the Northwest Army.
The iron army in Longyou is known as one hundred thousand, but these 100 thousand iron army are not the barbarians and mobs of Huainan Road and Lingnan Road. These iron cavalry have been fighting against the Turks and Northern Yan for a long time. It is no exaggeration to say that the iron cavalry of the Northwest Army can be called the first army of Dakang. The 12th Guards of the South Ya and the Six Guards of the North Ya are really against them on the battlefield. It is probably a great disaster. In this case, how can the capital defend?
The ministers and families with a little knowledge of Jinling knew in their hearts that the capital could not be defended, and everyone was planning a strategy to defend against Jiangnan! In this case, Emperor Xinde issued an imperial edict to send Lu Zheng to the north. Isn’t this to kill Lu Zheng?
Emperor Xinde's actions really shocked everyone. Is the Lu family still the Lu family back then? Will Lu Zheng respect the will of Emperor Xinde?
If Lu Zheng accepts the imperial edict, he will be in a dead state. After arriving in the capital, he will most likely never return to Jiangnan!
But if Lu Zheng does not obey the imperial edict, he must show up with Emperor Xinde. The Lu family will have to break up. Can the Lu family bear the price of rebellion? Are the Lu family ready to rebel?
The air in Jinling suddenly became tense, and the entire court felt suffocated by this. Everyone knew that the Lu family now had the ability to rebel and had reasons for rebellion. As long as they were willing, they could become kings in Jiangnan tomorrow. In this way, Dakang would no longer exist, and the world would enter the era of heroes competing for hegemony.
The chaos in the world is not only a huge disaster for the people, but also for many powerful families, they are extremely nervous. The chaos of the weak prey on the weak and the remaining ones are kings. Not every powerful family is willing to experience and bear it!
Many people in Jinling regard Emperor Xinde as a madman. If this guy is not crazy, how could he put such extreme pressure? Emperor Xinde’s posture is to show off completely with the Lu family, either the Lu family will kill him to rebel, or Emperor Xinde will come out again and make his last attempt.
I have to say that Emperor Xinde has found a good helper. Song Wensong is also a heroic existence. He is definitely unwilling to be ordinary when he comes from the capital to Jiangnan. He dares to gamble and cooperate with Emperor Xinde to deal with Lu Zheng, so that Emperor Xinde can see the hope of a fight since then.
Emperor Xinde was obsessed with power for many lifetimes. His obsession with power far exceeded his pursuit of immortality. When he had power, he did not feel that power was so important, but once power was lost, Emperor Xinde fell into madness.
This is also the reason why he dared to take risks. He no longer cared. He would rather die than lose power than make a last fight. He sent Lu Zheng to the capital and put him in an extremely dangerous situation. Then he cooperated with Song Wensong to fight with the Jiangnan power clan represented by the Lu family. Lu Zheng was his biggest threat.
The situation he needs to create is to regain the initiative, and it is best to let the ministers below divide into many factions and forces, and everyone is restrained by each other. In this way, he can re-establish the authority of the emperor, and he can still become Dakang's Majesty, thereby commanding the world!
...
The Lu family, Jinling, and Lu Zheng came from Jiangning to Jinling today. They came together including Dai Gao, Zhang Pinghua, Daoxiong, and Lu Shanchang. The Lu family was facing a great enemy and was on a strict guard. The atmosphere was so tense.
Lu Shanchang seemed to have grown ten years old. He sat upright on the chair, sighed and said, "Our Lu family has always been like human beings with their tails. We use all methods to keep Zheng'er low-key, but no matter how low-key it is, it is still jealous. Today's decree is simply to make our Lu family completely surrender, just like the decree of disbanding the Nanfu Army thirty years ago!
From then on, our Jiangnan power family declined. Until in recent years, the four Jiangnan great masters became three. In order to save their lives, the Gu family and the Chen family even bowed their knees and worked as horses in the capital. Our Lu family was almost destroyed. Fortunately, a clan appeared at the critical moment!"
Lu Shanchang was obviously excited. He clasped his fists and looked up at the high hall, saying, "The ancestors and ancestors are above. The Lu family has really experienced too many ups and downs. In my nearly 70s, the Lu family is facing unprecedented changes today.
I, Lu Shanchang, decided that I would rather die while standing than live on my knees. The Lu family has no way out this time. Since there is no way out, we can only burn our boats and give it a try!"
After Lu Shanchang said this, his eyes flashed with awesome murderous intent. For a person like Lu Shanchang, he had experienced too many things in his life, had seen too many ups and downs, and had made countless key decisions.
Like today's situation, it is not difficult for him to make a decision! The Lu family's hope lies with Lu Zheng. If Lu Zheng is gone, where will the Lu family be there and Jiangnan be there? Emperor Xinde touched Lu Zheng, which is to destroy the Lu family and make the Lu family desperate!
In this case, even if the Lu family knows that they will lose, they should protect themselves. What's more, the Lu family has become the number one in Jiangnan, and the Lu family has the confidence and confidence to be independent!
Lu Shanchang had a clear attitude. Dai Gao and Taojin monk present both pursed their lips and said nothing. They really didn't know how to speak. Zhang Pinghua said: "Yes, the Prime Minister is right. This situation is the only way for the young master! Look at this world, I don't know how many people are kings and how many people are independent. Who can compare with the young master? No one can compare with the young master!"
Zhang Pinghua paused and said, "Your Majesty is too urgent today. This is just right. This is also an opportunity for the young master. The young master is independent, relying on Jiangnan, and there is Yuzhou in the north. We have the richest place in the world. Are we still afraid of those grass-headed kings?"
Lu Zheng raised his eyebrows and gently pressed his hands, "Zhang Pinghua, don't talk nonsense!" Lu Zheng took a deep breath, bowed deeply to Lu Shanchang, and said, "Grandfather, I understand your old mood, but at this moment, we must never rebel against this situation, not only can we not rebel, but we must also do our best to obey His Majesty's will!
I have accepted the order and am ready to quit my leave immediately. There are many things in the world, and there are many roads in front of us. Sometimes we choose the most difficult road that may be a good choice!"
Lu Zheng paused and snorted coldly, "Many people say that the capital is a dead place, but in my opinion, Jinling is even more restrictive to me. In Jinling, even if I am in Jinling, I am a thorn in Your Majesty's eyes and the target of many people's jealousy! If I leave Jinling and are not in this place of failure, even if it is more dangerous and difficult outside, it will be more conducive to further growth!"
Lu Zheng said something casually, and Lu Shanchang's lips tilted and wanted to speak, Dai Gao said: "The key is that you are sure to stabilize the situation when you go to the capital. If you can't stabilize, can you really survive and die with the capital?"
Dai Gao grasped the key point in one sentence. Now everyone is concerned about whether there is hope in the north. If Lu Zheng goes to the capital, it is absolutely unacceptable.
Because everyone in the room in front of me actually relies on Lu Zheng to survive. If Lu Zheng is finished, Jiangnan will inevitably be in chaos. Perhaps first of all, the only three remaining families in Jiangnan will be in chaos.
Lu Zheng said: "There is no way out. Song Wensong cannot survive in the capital, but I, Lu Zheng, may not be able to survive! Hehe, Song Wensong is indeed powerful, but only the courage of an ordinary man, how can he gain a foothold in the capital? This time I went to the capital and had Liu Song from Yuzhou to help. In addition, I can also tell Cao Weiming that the situation will be reversed soon!"
After Lu Zheng said this, Dai Gao nodded, and the monk nodded. Lu Shanchang said, "Zheng'er, what you said just now is just a possibility. We can't bet! What if something goes wrong, what should we do?"
Lu Zheng laughed and said, "Grandfather, the so-called plan depends on people and things are accomplished. Have you ever seen anyone who can beat God? Since God is going to destroy me, Lu Zheng has nothing to say, I am just dead!
But if the sky does not destroy me, I will soon have a new transformation in the capital. When I occupy the capital, I will never part ways with Song Wensong again?"
Lu Zheng's tone was very firm and full of passion. He knew that there was a shadow of Song Wensong behind this matter, but he knew that even if it was Song Wensong, he might not be absolutely sure of this matter. Everyone was just betting on their lives and giving it a try.
When did Lu Zheng be afraid of Song Wensong? When they were in the northwest, they could call themselves brothers and stab the knife in the back. Today, Lu Zheng and he are both extremely ministers. Song Wensong stabbed him with a knife. Can Lu Zheng be scared by him?
Lu Zheng's attitude towards today's discussion was extremely firm, and Lu Shanchang and others had no choice but to agree to Lu Zheng's order to go north. The Lu family was soon shrouded in a dark cloud.
When the news of Lu Zheng going north came out of the Lu family, Jinling caused a huge uproar. Many people found Lu Zheng incredible, and some even felt that Lu Zheng was indecisive, and sooner or later, it would be difficult for such a person to become a great man.
Only a very small number of people, such as Dai Gao, understand that Lu Zheng’s choice is practical and thoughtful and takes great painstaking efforts!
Lu Zheng cannot resist because his greatest capital is to represent Dakang’s justice. If he rebelled, this justice would be destroyed. This is one of them.
Secondly, Lu Zheng has not yet grown up. Although the Nanfu Army has a certain combat power, it has been established for a short time, and its combat power is far from enough to challenge the world, and its number is far from enough.
Third, if there is a fertile land in Jiangnan, if there is a great chaos, the rich foundation of Jiangnan will be shaken. If Jiangnan is in turmoil, it will be detrimental to Lu Zheng that it will not help him accumulate strength. Once he rebelled, he will most likely turn Jiangnan into a piece of fat. If that is the case, Lu Zheng will face an extremely tragic ending.
Based on these comprehensive reasons, Lu Zheng certainly would not do such stupid things. He knew very well that the best strategy now is to accumulate grain, build high walls, and be king slowly!
Lu Zheng's strategy will not change, not only will it not change, but he also needs to take the opportunity to consolidate it. This time he went north, his mentality adjusted very quickly. He knew very well that his life was not hard enough, and the biggest shortcoming was in military affairs.
He thought about the war in the northwest now. He learned military tactics and was not afraid of tigers. Under the specific conditions at that time, he fought a war that shocked the world with his desolate luck. Such a thing is already a very distant memory for Lu Zheng now.
And he himself knew that such a thing would never happen again. This time he faced the same sight of the Northwest Iron Cavalry when he went to the capital. He was facing Song Naifeng, the general of Dakang Chao, who was known as the world's number one general.
In addition, Cao Weiming, who proclaimed himself as king and dominated the Mesopotamian region, both of them were heroic existences, especially Song Naifeng. It has to be said that even if Lu Zheng suppressed all the assets of the Southern Prefecture Army, it would be difficult to win.
Now, he went to the capital alone, relying on a group of people under Song Wensong, and then the little Nanfu army brought by Lu Zheng to fight the opponent? Obviously, it is impossible...
Therefore, Lu Zheng faced a huge test, and he even faced an impossible task. He was the chief marching manager of Pingjing Road, and looked at all the military horses in the north. It sounded very impressive. His power could be said to be above the prince Long Zhaohuan.
Lu Zheng's mind was spinning rapidly, and his thoughts were flying for a moment. Lu Zheng had no objection to the order. Now Lu Zheng was thinking about how to advance, which was the real headache for him.
"Song Wensong, Song Wensong, I knew you were not a fuel-efficient lamp! When you came to Jiangnan from the capital, I expected you to be a disaster star, but I didn't expect you to take action so quickly!" Lu Zheng murmured.
The boy behind him said, "Young Master, we have to think of more ways for the current plan. I have mobilized all the people in the North! We have accumulated strength for so many years, and even though the power is still not enough, our information and information are at least many times stronger than Song Wensong!"
