Chapter 101 The Fear of Being Dominated by Young Master Lu
The gate of the imperial capital slowly opened.
Ten fine horses galloped in.
A strong smell of blood permeated their mouths and noses.
Jiang Li was riding a horse with its mane flying. What he saw seemed to be a sea of blood and corpses, with the ground covered with messy arrows and corpses.
On the city wall, the bodies of soldiers were lying in various postures, with blood oozing through the cracks in the wall. Judging from their clothes, they were the guards of the Imperial Capital.
"what happened?"
One of the messengers trembled as the scene before him shocked his mind.
"Could it be that the Northern County army, or the Western County army, has entered the imperial capital?"
The other messenger swallowed.
Jiang Li pulled the reins, and the horses seemed to be uneasy because of the blood on the ground.
"Young Master Beiluo..."
There was a strange light flashing in Jiang Li's eyes.
Beiluo...someone is coming?
…
Book Pavilion.
As quiet and elegant as ever.
Mo Tianyu sat in front of the library, studying divination, while holding a huge gourd and pouring wine into his mouth.
Ever since he was pulled back from Beiluo City by the Imperial Master, Mo Tianyu has gained enlightenment and grown.
He was no longer the unscrupulous and dissolute Mo Kuangren in the capital.
He understood that if he wanted to be arrogant, he must first have strength. If he had Lu Fan's strength, then he could be arrogant and who would dare to control him? As for fortune-telling... he did not give up.
After all, this is his hobby. He had been learning divination before he became the disciple of the Master, so he couldn't give it up.
Even though his divination skills were frequently wrong, he never gave up.
I have no regrets in this life about entering the divination pit.
In the attic.
There were footsteps, and Mo Tianyu was startled. He saw that the teacher who had been secluded for many days had suddenly appeared on the pavilion with a hunched back, his hands behind his back, and looking into the distance.
Kong Nanfei, dressed in Confucian attire, walked out from behind the Master and also looked out.
"The storm is coming."
"Do you feel it? The wind in the capital...is starting to change."
The national teacher said slowly.
Kong Nanfei nodded: "Lu Ping'an's maid and coachman brought 500 Beiluo cavalrymen into the imperial capital."
"Lu Ping'an's goal is very simple. He plans to use the method of cleaning out the Beiluo City families to clean out all the corrupt families in the Imperial Capital."
“However, although the Imperial Capital Family Group is not as powerful as the families in the Southern and Northern counties, it is too close to the Imperial Court Ministers Group. If one move affects the entire group, it will be extremely difficult to clean up.”
The teacher smiled, and his white hair kept shaking in the wind.
"Someone once said that in troubled times, severe punishments should be used. I don't think so. After all, severe punishments will definitely destroy the original order, which is not good for the country or the people."
"But... the current Great Zhou has nothing to lose. How bad can things get?"
The national teacher said.
Kong Nanfei was stunned.
"Lu Pingan is still the one who sees things clearly..."
The national teacher sighed.
…
Imperial Capital, Purple Gold Palace.
After Yu Wenxiu finished reading the secret letter in his hand, a fiery light burst out in his eyes.
"Do what I dare not do..."
"As expected of Lu Pingan."
Yu Wenxiu clenched the secret letter in his hand and crumpled it into a ball.
"Good kill! Kill them all!"
"These people actually dared to secretly recruit soldiers and even began to get involved in the military power of the imperial capital. Are they planning a rebellion?!"
"Once a rebellion breaks out in the imperial capital, the hope of the Great Zhou will be completely destroyed."
“How hateful!”
Yu Wenxiu's face was cold and he slapped the desk with his palm.
He felt that his job as an emperor was really unfair.
There is not a single useful person in the court, and almost all of them are ministers with their own ulterior motives.
The old eunuch stood on one side, his expression also grim.
The inconspicuous Prime Minister Zhao Kuo, who seemed to have one foot about to step into the coffin, actually had such a hidden trick.
"It's a pity that Lu Ping'an can't leave Beiluo and assist me in the court. If Lu Ping'an were to assist me, the world would definitely be unified under the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Yuwen Xiu sighed.
The old eunuch heard Yuwen Xiu's sigh and shook his head.
This time, if He Shou's manifesto had not been so hateful, Young Master Lu of Beiluo would not even have bothered to send anyone to the Imperial Capital.
It is impossible for a person like that to be content to be inferior to others and become a subject of a dynasty.
Even if Lu Fan is willing, the emperor may not dare to accept him.
…
Wangxiang Tower.
He Shou looked extremely unhappy as he looked at the breathless servant.
"Sir, Wangxiang Tower is surrounded by armored cavalrymen riding fine horses. We...can't get out!"
The servant knelt on the ground, his forehead covered with cold sweat of fear, and said.
“Go!”
He Shou's face changed drastically, and the ministers around him were also terrified and hurried downstairs.
However, they heard the sound of horse hooves outside Wangxiang Tower, which frightened them so much that they dared not go through the main gate and went to the side door.
"The Beiluo thieves are cruel and ruthless. We should go to the Prime Minister's residence immediately to discuss this with him!"
He Shou said hurriedly.
He even felt that it was unsafe to go out like this, so he changed clothes with his servant and went out through the side door.
However.
As soon as I walked out of the side door, I found the Beiluo cavalry blocking the road coldly.
He Shou turned pale with fright, and several ministers around him also trembled. They turned around and wanted to leave, but they heard the sound of horse hooves approaching, and a knife still dripping with blood was placed in front of them.
"Who is He Shou?"
Luo Cheng asked with a knife in his hand and a cold look in his eyes.
In the distance, Nie Zhangqing drove over.
"You scholars just like to show off. You did an ambush and you still like to be admired from a high position. Do you have to recite a poem to feel satisfied?"
Nie Zhangqing, dressed in white, drove over and said calmly.
He glanced at the group of people who were stopped, and with his keen eyesight, he naturally saw the difference.
Although He Shou and his companions were wearing servants' clothes, they did not have the temperament of servants, and one could tell the difference at first glance.
He Shou had already regretted it deeply.
The methods used by Ning Zhao, Nie Zhangqing and others completely frightened him. Even thousands of arrows could not get close to him... Was this still the warrior he knew? A warrior, even if he had reached the Grandmaster level, could not withstand thousands of troops or thousands of arrows.
For this ambush, he mobilized three thousand elite soldiers from the Prime Minister, hoping to kill the coachman and maid of Beiluo Young Master Lu and dampen his fighting spirit.
Who would have thought that I would encounter such an incredible thing.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Let the thousands of arrows freeze in the air and then fall to the ground.
A butcher knife in the air, killing people like butchering dogs...
All these things made He Shou's heart tremble.
Nie Zhangqing was walking slowly, carrying a butcher knife and wearing a fluttering white shirt.
"Who is He Shou? Tell me who he is and you will live."
Nie Zhangqing said.
The ministers below, who had changed into servants' clothes, had already hated He Shou, who had invited them to observe.
Hearing Nie Zhangqing's words, everyone rushed to point out He Shou without hesitation.
He Shou looked pale and was extremely angry.
Luo Cheng's eyes were wide open with anger. With a "swish", he drew out the long sword from his waist and swung it towards He Shou's neck.
"You were the one who wrote that bullshit manifesto?"
"Who do you think you are? How dare you insult the young master?!"
The long sword slashed through the void, emitting a terrifying sharpness.
He Shou turned pale with fright.
He regretted it. Why did he come to Wangxiang Tower to seek death? !
"etc."
However, Nie Zhangqing stopped Luo Cheng's action.
"It would be too easy for him to die like this. Let him see what his manifesto has brought to the capital..."
Nie Zhangqing said.
"You can go now."
Afterwards, Nie Zhangqing pointed at the minister who first pointed out He Shou's identity.
The minister cried for joy and ran away in panic, crawling all the way.
Nie Zhangqing looked at the embarrassed figure and sighed.
The ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty were all of this kind, without any integrity at all. No wonder the capital was in chaos.
"Kill the others."
Nie Zhangqing said calmly.
As soon as the words fell, Luo Cheng's soldiers drew their swords.
These ministers who came to watch the fun were all stained with blood.
He Shou collapsed on the ground, with a foul smell coming from his lower body. A minister nearby had blood spurting out of his face. He... was incontinent.
In the carriage, behind the curtain.
Ning Zhao's voice came: "The ministers who were captured in Beiluo City explained the power of the imperial family clearly. Let's take our time."
Nie Zhangqing climbed onto the carriage and drove away.
Luo Cheng glanced at He Shou, picked him up with one hand, and mounted his horse. Five hundred cavalrymen left Wangxiang Tower in a mighty force.
Five hundred cavalrymen marched across the long streets of the imperial capital, and the people on both sides watched in fear, not daring to say a word.
The Qian family is one of the aristocratic families in the imperial capital. The head of the Qian family is a minister of the Zhou Dynasty and a loyal supporter of Prime Minister Zhao Kuo.
Five hundred cavalrymen from Beiluo arrived at Qian's mansion.
Break in directly.
There was no pretense. Nie Zhangqing held a butcher knife in his hand. The guards of the Qian Mansion rushed over one after another, but Nie Changqing ended the fight with just two strikes.
Luo Cheng led 500 cavalrymen into the mansion and escorted all the members of the Qian family, except the women and the elderly.
The head of the Qian family knelt on the ground, crying.
"Beiluo thieves! Why...do you punish my Qian family? Why?!"
Behind the carriage curtain.
A faint voice floated out.
"The Qian family submitted thirteen memorials, each impeaching our Beiluo Young Master. They also copied and spread rumors. As for the private placement of troops and the crimes of corruption and abuse of power, I won't go into details. These crimes are extremely serious..."
"kill."
The words fell.
Luo Cheng gave the order, and the Beiluo cavalry immediately fell to the ground.
Blood splattered several feet away.
He Shou, who was being held by Luo Cheng, witnessed this scene and his face turned paler.
He Shou thought this was the end, but he discovered that the Qian family’s downfall was just the beginning.
Next.
Five hundred Beiluo cavalrymen, surrounding a horse-drawn carriage, entered the gates of the major families in the imperial capital at an unhurried pace.
One luxurious mansion after another was broken into.
One after another, the noble families were destroyed by the iron cavalry.
The Beiluo Iron Cavalry, like a sharp steel knife, stirred up turmoil in the imperial capital and plundered the wealthy families one by one.
So many pleas for mercy, so many screams.
The conversation came to an abrupt end after Ning Zhao confessed the crimes.
The evil deeds these noble families have done are too numerous to count, but...
Their biggest crime was that they wrote many memorials to impeach Young Master Lu of Beiluo.
A bloody rain enveloped the capital.
After jumping around for a long time, the Imperial Capital family was finally slaughtered by the Beiluo cavalry.
He felt the fear of being dominated by Young Master Lu.
