Chapter 720 Xiao Jia...a good means
Lu Pingzhang and the old man were drinking tea in the study.
There are staff members writing memorials on the side.
"...Think about my family's merits from the Sui Dynasty to the present? But from the beginning of the first emperor, he regarded us as an enemy and suppressed us many times. Yang Gong, do you still remember your late father?"
Lu Pingzhang smiled coldly.
The old man sighed and said, "Why don't you remember? Your father is very talented and made a lot of contributions, but he just got a county magistrate. The magistrate is an empty-headed thing. Fortunately, he gave a lot of land and food, otherwise the Li family would be a real mess." White-eyed wolf."
"Not just this."
Lu Pingzhang clenched his hands into fists, trying his best to hold back his anger.
"At the beginning, my father supported Prince Yin, but how many people supported Prince Yin? Why was my late father left out in the cold when no one else had anything to do? So depressed, I left early. They thought I didn't know the root cause of this matter, but I feel that my late father is good at war, and I am just worried that my late father will rebel... The Li family is not a son of man!"
Prince Yin refers to Li Jiancheng.
The old man was shocked, put down his teacup and asked, "You mean...the reason why the late emperor suppressed your family was for this reason?"
Lu Pingzhang nodded.
Before and after the change of Xuanwumen, in the Tang Dynasty, it can be said that you will sing and I will appear on the stage.
Lu Pingzhang’s father was the founding military general at the beginning, and he can be said to be both civil and military, but Conglong’s heart was too hot, and he even took refuge in Li Jiancheng...
At that time, the small circle had not yet formed, so everyone was a lonely ghost.
But at this time, his standing in line angered the first emperor.
Standing in line cannot affect the judgment of the late emperor. For example, many people sided with Prince Yin at the beginning. After the change of Xuanwumen, the late emperor mostly let the past go...
"At that time, there were so many people on the side of Prince Yin. The late emperor couldn't pursue it, so he could only settle a foolish account. But because my late father was Prince Yin's confidant, he was regarded as a thorn in his side..."
Lu Pingzhang thinks this world is very funny.
"My late father died in depression, and then I took refuge in Changsun Wuji to make a comeback. But Changsun Wuji is the late emperor's confidant, do I count as eating inside and outside? Hahahaha!"
Lu Pingzhang laughed out loud.
The old man couldn't help feeling chilling.
"But I have no choice but to bow my head if I need wealth..."
He turned around and said with a smile: "Mr. Yang, if you can't find a real profitable business for the Lu family, do you think Jia Ping'an will become angry? He wants to break the foundation of the Lu family, but if it is so easy If I found the foundation of the Lu family, wouldn't my decades of management be in vain? Hahahaha!"
Lu Pingzhang is in a very good mood today, even if it is reported that several shops in Dongshi have been smashed.
"Murder pays for life, but Jia Ping'an has no evidence, what can he do to me?"
Lu Pingzhang said with a smile: "Mr. Yang, let me have a drink with the old man at noon."
People are refreshed on happy occasions, and drink a few glasses of wine to add to the fun.
"Take another afternoon nap, it's very pleasant!"
Lu Pingzhang heard footsteps, turned around and saw the housekeeper running towards him with a face full of panic.
"Why panic?"
Lu Pingzhang asked dissatisfied.
Some shadows suddenly appeared in his heart, but he immediately ruled out that idea.
How important those shops are, since he regards the royal family as an enemy, he naturally refuses to reveal his hole cards...Basically, those rich and powerful families operate in this way.
This is the three caves of the cunning rabbit.
"Lang Jun, Jia Pingan took people to the West Market."
Lu Pingzhang said dissatisfied: "He went to the West Market just to check, could he still find the business of our family?"
There are countless shops in Dongxi City, and Lu's shop is the best among them. It can be called the old hen that can lay golden eggs in the family.
The steward stomped his feet, "Mr. Lang, I'm listening to what they say... I found a clue in the ledger..."
Lu Pingzhang smiled and said, "What clue did he find? Do you know how many shops our family has in West Market?"
"Fifteen."
Lu Pingzhang stood still.
The old man suddenly got up and fell down with a bang.
"Mr. Yang!"
The old man struggled on the ground, forced a smile and said: "I got up a little bit, come on, help the old man."
Lu Pingzhang's face turned livid, "What a Jia Ping'an, the old man didn't even think to look for clues in the account books. Those five shops are inextricably linked to the business in Dongshi. There are exchanges between people, but those exchanges are all money transactions, one penny and one penny... How did Jia Pingan find out?"
The old man was helped up, and said anxiously: "Old man, go there, if he dares to make a move, he will step over the old man's corpse!"
As soon as he took a step, his whole body trembled uncontrollably.
"Mr. Yang?"
Lu Pingzhang's complexion changed, "It's raining all night because of the leak in the house, come here, I'll invite the doctor."
He wandered around a few times, but finally he was reluctant to part with the golden rooster at home.
"Jia Pingan didn't dare to do anything during the day and night, so he called someone, let's go to Xishi, if he doesn't break his head today, yeah, he won't be Lu Pingzhang!"
…
"Your Majesty, Jia Pingan found out the hidden business of Lu's family in West Market, and brought people there."
Shen Qiu never thought that Jia Ping'an would be so bold.
"Lu's business..."
Li Zhi rubbed his forehead, and said sarcastically: "Back then, Lu Qingyun was at the top of his head, and while hooking up with Prince Yin, he sent people to the late emperor to show his loyalty.
During the incident at Xuanwu Gate...he was jumping up and down, saying that the Lu family was loyal, and then coming to the late emperor to make friends and get news, but the late emperor was so smart that his method would not work.
So others can let go of the past afterwards, but Lu Qingyun has to punish him. The first emperor was too merciful and refused to be cruel. If it were me, I would definitely make the Lu family pay the price! "
Shen Qiu's heart shuddered, "Your Majesty, this servant remembers that Lu Qingyun was pretty good afterward."
Lu Qingyun was going to be deposed, but he resorted to the means of drilling, and successfully embraced the thigh of the eldest grandson Wuji, thus starting a "legendary road".
Thinking of this, Li Zhi sneered and said: "It is said that he died in depression, but he just watched those colleagues who were promoted get promoted, and those who got rich got rich... But what is wrong with the Lu family? The people are not as popular as snakes, so why not!"
But this matter has to be dealt with.
Li Zhi waved his hand, "They can fight as they please."
In his opinion, no matter how fierce the fight between the two families was, it was nothing more than a fight, and it was not a problem to kill a few slaves.
But Jia’s family has too few servants.
Li Zhi moved slightly in his heart, "Look back and see if there are reliable servants, reward Jia Ping'an, at least 20 households, otherwise my Marquis of Wuyang may capsize in the undercurrent in Chang'an City!"
"yes!"
Shen Qiu returned to Baiqi, just about to take people to watch the battle.
"Shen Zhongguan, Jia Ping'an is gone."
Shen Qiu said indifferently: "Is this cowardice?"
Ming Jing looked up from the shopping cart, her eyes tightened, "I'm afraid something big will happen."
…
Lu Pingzhang hurriedly led the people to the West Market.
Out of the house, turn left to the alley, and turn right to the avenue.
"Quicker!"
Lu Pingzhang did not ride a horse, but chose to ride a carriage.
The ten or so subordinates are all masters, and everyone can count as one against ten.
He opened the curtain and took a look outside, feeling uncomfortable after all. But he comforted himself that as soon as this year passed, Jia Ping'an would not be too fussy.
This is an unspoken rule. Otherwise, when the country was founded, the bull beat the horse to death, and the horse beat the cow to death. If there is no restraint, who can rest easy? Te Niang is afraid that she will be attacked on the way to the Yamen.
So just get through it.
He sat in the car, thinking about what to do after the incident.
"Impeach!"
Lu Pingzhang's eyes became colder, "Otherwise, everyone would think that the Lu family has fallen."
The so-called Buddha fights for a stick of incense, and people fight for one breath. These things cannot be retreated even half a step.
What assassination do you want to say, bring the evidence, and impeach you for slander without evidence!
Lu Pingzhang breathed a sigh of relief.
Right ahead, two carriages approached slowly.
"Get out of the way!"
If there is no carriage, the two families will easily stagger, but this alley is a bit narrow, so you need to slow down to avoid it.
Lu Pingzhang would not take this path in the past, but he couldn't stand the emergency today.
He clenched the horizontal knife tightly and opened some car curtains, feeling annoyed in his heart.
But at this moment he can still ride the horse and turn around.
"That's how people's mentality is. Since they have taken this path, they will be lucky."
There was an opening in the back of the carriage, and Jia Pingan sat there, holding down the handle of the knife.
Everyone thought that he went to the West Market, but they never thought that this was just a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain.
Ahead, Lu Pingzhang watched the situation of the two carriages from the curtain of the carriage.
There is no movement, but it can be seen that there are many people in the carriage...
Judging from the state of the car, there should be two to three people in the car.
Five to six people in two carriages.
good.
Lu Pingzhang felt relieved.
Both sides approach.
A guard looked at the leading carriage, glanced over the curtain, and saw something shining.
What is shining?
Jewelry?
Still a weapon!
The guard just wanted to stop the other party's carriage...
Jia Pingan shouted from behind: "Do it!"
He jumped out of the carriage lightly.
Lu Pingzhang's heart trembled, and he shouted: "Kill them!"
Poof!
The curtain of the carriage on the opposite side was thrown open suddenly, and a one-eyed dragon rushed over with a horizontal knife in his hand.
"Protect your husband!"
More than a dozen guards realized at this moment, rushing desperately to the side of the carriage.
The coachman also pulled out the horizontal knife from under his body, and after jumping off the carriage, he realized that he was a lame man.
Several men also got off the second car.
Headed by a man with a knife in his left hand, and behind him is a fool, looking blankly.
Jia Pingan came out last from the back.
"It's Jia Ping'an!"
Amidst the screams, those guards were going crazy.
"Kill him, and we will be famous all over the world!"
What kind of general, what are we?
Everyone is self-motivated, and a single sentence caused bloodshed.
The opponent swung the saber, Chen Dong raised his head, the horizontal saber passed in front of his eyes, but the cold couldn't make his eyes blink.
But the opponent blinked.
He charged forward, swinging his knife, while keeping an eye on the second opponent.
Lang Jun said that no one can be left alive today.
Before departure, Mr. Lang asked everyone if they were willing, and those who didn’t want to wait at home.
No one spoke.
Datang man, grievances and grievances are clear.
Lang Jun is so confidant to everyone, who is not willing to fight for the Jia family, is that still human?
There is no reason for being tall, some are just a man's promise!
A man's promise is worth a thousand dollars!
Shua!
The horizontal knife swept across, bringing up a **** storm.
Boss Yang limps and trots step by step. Some people think he is a rookie and rush forward laughing.
Boss Yang doesn't like to smile, with a cold face and fair skin, he doesn't look like a hero fighting in the army at all, so his indifference is regarded as timid instead.
With one blow, the enemy in front of him fell down. Boss Yang said indifferently: "What bravery?"
Xia Huo held a knife in his left hand, and the opponent couldn't help laughing when he saw it.
He even slapped the horizontal knife contemptuously, wanting to give him a head.
Xia Huo's left hand moved, and the horizontal knife was so flexible that it was unbelievable that he decapitated his opponent with one blow.
The big man with dull eyes roared, "Get out!"
"This bastard!"
Jia Pingan cursed, "If you dare to peel the skin, I will let you eat human flesh later!"
Duan Chuliang froze, and immediately shouted: "Get out of the way!"
After killing someone last time, Duan Chuliang actually wanted to peel the skin, and made Jia Pingan want to die, and beat him severely, which broke this guy's thoughts away.
Duan Chuan shot, that is a sweeping posture.
"kill!"
The horizontal knife swept away, and the three fell to the ground.
day!
It turned out to be a weapon of mass destruction!
At this moment, Lu Pingzhang jumped out of the carriage, but his subordinates suffered heavy casualties.
Jia Pingan walked easily through the passage opened by the guards.
"Jia Pingan!"
Lu Pingzhang was roaring crazily.
"You broke your throat, and I won't admit it!"
At this moment, hands came out from the wall, and Jia Pingan scolded: "Aren't you sure you won't shut up?"
The hands disappeared.
Lu Pingzhang came quickly, his eyes were red, and the angle of the horizontal knife was changed several times.
"If you don't die, I will die!"
He thought of his late father.
The first emperor treated the Lu family badly!
He roared, and the horizontal knife shot like lightning.
Jia Pingan blocked, rushed forward, and pushed Lu Pingzhang to the side of the carriage.
"No!"
This is due to the lack of strength. As soon as he fought, he was crushed by Jia Pingan.
While roaring, he withdrew the horizontal knife viciously and stabbed Jia Pingan in the lower abdomen.
Jia Ping'an easily grasped the horizontal knife, Lu Pingzhang was overjoyed, and twisted his wrist violently.
Still motionless!
He lowered his head, only to find that Jia Ping'an's left hand was wearing a glove. The gloves are densely woven with iron rings, and it is effortless to hold the horizontal knife.
Jia Pingan looked at him, and said contemptuously, "Just because you want to assassinate Jia?"
"you…"
Just as Lu Pingzhang opened his mouth, the horizontal knife swung across.
He has a **** in his throat.
The artery was cut, and the throat was cut at the same time. He inhaled desperately, and the air was sucked in through the opening, making a strange sound.
"Hiss..."
Jia Ping'an turned around.
There were only two of the ten or so guards left at this moment. They uttered a cry, turned around and ran away.
"Help!"
The shouts suddenly became more pleasantly surprised.
"help me!"
Draw the knife, swing the knife.
Xu Xiaoyu and Zhao Shun, who were blocked outside, easily dealt with their opponents.
Jia Pingan glanced at the scene.
"Walk!"
Later, all the movement outside disappeared.
Only then did someone climb up from the top of the wall, and took a cautious look.
"oh!"
People who died all over the place!
"Killed!"
"Killed!"
Fang was rushing there with people, and after seeing the scene, he couldn't help feeling chills down his spine.
"It's a good way to kill with one blow."
He lifts the curtains...
"It's Duke Lu!"
What a disaster.
Everyone can't help but look at each other.
"Who did it?"
The big man on the opposite wall said with a smart look on his face: "I heard someone calling Jia Ping'an's name."
Fang breathed a sigh of relief, "It has nothing to do with us when the rich and powerful are killing each other, by the way, how long have they been killing each other?"
"I think it's just a few breaths."
This is an exaggeration, but it also shows how tough Jia Pingan's team is.
"You!" Fangzheng pointed at the big man, "Come down."
"Me? Good good!"
This person looked like he had nothing to do at home, and after he jumped down happily, Fangzheng detained him without saying a word.
"Hey! Fangzheng, I didn't kill people, why are you detaining me?"
The big man wants to die.
Fang Zheng said indifferently: "You are the only witness at the scene, go and testify."
…
Messed up.
The five shops in West Market have been waiting for Jia Pingan's revenge, but the revenge has not come for a long time.
"What a disaster!"
A steward came with a pale face, and he didn't care about the tricks.
"Lang Jun was killed by Jia Pingan!"
Fuck!
All of a sudden, there was a mess!
In the palace, Li Zhi was listening to Xu Jingzong talking about this year's harvest with a smile.
"The harvest around Chang'an is good, but there are still gaps..."
Old Xu is a man of affairs.
Li Zhi looked at him, and then at Li Yifu, the balance in his heart tilted slowly.
Li Yifu is a dog he kept in captivity, but Xu Jingzong is a capable courtier.
When did this transition occur?
It seems that it hasn't been long since I came back from Huazhou...
"Your Majesty!"
Before Li Zhi could think about it, a servant came outside.
"Your Majesty, Duke Bohai was killed."
Jia Ping'an!
Li Zhi knew who did it without even thinking about it!
Be bold!
He breathed hard, thinking of the consequences of this incident, he couldn't help wanting to kill someone.
"Take Jia Ping'an!"
"Your Majesty, I think it's inappropriate."
Xu Jingzong, who was talking eloquently just now, made a move, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, do you have evidence? If you don't have evidence, why take someone? Think about how pitiful Marquis Wuyang is. , the ancients said that if there is injustice, you will cry out, and the minister is the Marquis of Wuyang to cry out injustice!"
Changsun Wuji stood up in a gaffe, "It must be Jia Pingan!"
Unless the emperor wanted to kill Lu Pingzhang, it would be Jia Ping'an.
But the emperor only needs to be charged with a crime if he wants to kill Lu Pingzhang...
"How was the scene?"
Li Yifu laughed wildly in his heart, but his face was solemn.
"It is said that there are corpses strewn all over the field!" The waiter looked terrified, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.
"How many people are saying that there are corpses everywhere?" Li Ji said coldly: "Could it be that Lu Pingzhang's ostentation is bigger than that of His Majesty? You have to follow hundreds of people to go out of the house. If so, there will be more than one death!"
This is not the mid-Tang Dynasty. The rich and powerful came out and cheered and embraced, and the pomp was huge.
—When the rich and powerful are more and more ostentatious, the country is in danger.
The rich and powerful talk about ostentation, which only shows that their minds are not spent on their own work, but on other things... such as money and beauties.
When Li Ji spoke, the matter changed.
There is no evidence for Lu Pingzhang's assassination of Jia Pingan, and there is no evidence for Jia Pingan's backhand to chop him up.
The key is that he hasn't used the bow and arrow to ambush.
Xiao Jia...good trick!
