Lu Houchou suddenly attacked Ji Sun Yiru and personally led the attack.
Just when Lu Houchou was about to find someone to ask for help from the Meng family and the Shusun family, something happened to the Shusun family again.
The capital of the country suffered a change, but Uncle Sunruo had been ordered to leave the mountain by Ji Hai at this moment.
The Shusun family was relatively close to Jisun Yiru's residence. The Shusun family was the first to know the news, but all the retainers didn't know what to do.
The clan members and retainers of the clan were discussing in the hall, undecided as to whether they should take the plunge.
You must know that when the bull was raised to bring trouble to the Shusun family, all the capable members of the Shusun family were basically wiped out.
And the rest of them were originally people who were used to taking advantage of the situation, or they were people with insufficient talents who could not achieve great things.
Fortunately, Uncle Sunbao's concubine, Uncle Sunruo, had some power and means, and because of his relationship as Shu Niu's nephew, the lineage was preserved, and later actions were taken to correct the chaos and turn the tide.
However, after all, it was just a matter of encouragement and maintenance, and he could no longer check and balance the Ji family and revive the office like his father did.
In fact, if Lu Houchou had not temporarily transferred Shusun Ruo from the capital, he should have sent people to find Shusun Ruo immediately. However, because Lu Houchou was instigated by Ji Hai, he deliberately sent Shusun Ruo away. .
How can he command the Shusun family now?
Now that Lu Houchou thought about it, he realized how sinister Ji Hai's intentions were!
But at this moment, Zong Ru, the Sima Zong of the Shusun family, saw a group of elders of the Shusun family talking about each other there, so he stood up directly:
"We are all retainers, and we dare not know the pros and cons of the country, but now I dare to ask you in front of you, which situation is beneficial to our uncle and grandson, with the Ji family or without the Ji family? You have seen more You have a lot of knowledge, please analyze it!"
When everyone heard the sound, they immediately became quiet.
Then, after a while of whispering, someone suddenly replied from the crowd:
"Then the Ji family is still beneficial to the Shusun family! The monarch attacked the Ji family, but deliberately sent away the sect leader. Obviously he was suspicious of my Shusun family!"
"Yes! The Shusun family, the Ji family, and the Meng family are all the most powerful clans in the Lu Kingdom. The Ji family was liquidated by the monarch today, so the next one will definitely be our Shusun family!"
"Yes, Sanhuan has maintained the state of Lu for many years. It can be said that we have shared weal and woe! Needless to say?"
Naturally, Wan Lu got the answer he wanted. He couldn't help but nodded:
"What you all said is true. Since the monarch is unkind and attacks the Ji family for no reason, how can we sit back and wait for death? Besides, we are not trying to do anything to the monarch, we are just trying to prevent him from annihilating the Ji family! Please give me your permission, sir. , lead troops to assist the Ji family!"
After hearing this, the elders of the Shusun family couldn't help but look at each other, but no one dared to say "no".
After a period of silence, it was equivalent to directly acquiescing to this cruel move.
As for Wu Ru, he had actually been bribed by Shu Niu a long time ago.
The Shusun family, even though the smart and wise Shusunruo is indeed at odds with the Ji family, as Marquis Lu was worried, there are actually many people under his command who are secretly colluding with the Ji family. .
】
After all, in the face of obvious headwinds, there are always many sellers seeking glory.
Since Ji Sun Yiru now dares to deliberately provoke Lu Hou Chou, then naturally the Shusun family must be fully prepared.
And all of this is actually a series of tricks set up by Shu Niu.
Therefore, Huan Ru immediately took Shusun's private soldiers to Ji Sun Yiru's attic to support Ji Sun Yiru.
On the other hand, when He E arrived at the Meng clan house, he saw a tall man at the gate. The man looked close to two meters tall. When he saw He E, he raised his eyebrows and said with a half-smile:
"Doctor Li has such a status, but he also acts as a lobbyist?"
He E knew that this person was Ji Sun Yiru's retainer Yang Hu. He did not want to say more to him. He just sneered and informed the Meng family's attendant of his name, asking to see Meng Sun Heji, the head of the Meng family.
After all, Meng Sunheji was only a teenager at this time, but how had he ever encountered such a situation? Moreover, Lu Houchou did not have enough planning in advance, and Confucius knew nothing about it.
At the moment, Confucius was not in the capital city, but was giving lectures at Xingtan in the suburbs. Without this teacher to guide him behind his back, Meng Sun Heji felt even more unsure, so he had to meet Li E and Yang Hu in person.
He E and Yang Hu stepped into the living room at the same time. As soon as He E saw Meng Sun He Ji, he bowed hastily and said eagerly:
"Doctor Mengsun, the monarch is besieging Jisun Yiru now, but cannot attack it for a long time. I would like to ask Meng to lend a helping hand to help the monarch!"
Meng Sunheji had not spoken yet, but Yang Hu said again:
"Doctor, the Ji family and the Meng family are in the same spirit and share weal and woe. It is wrong for the monarch to attack the Ji family for no reason. He also asked Doctor Meng Sun to think about the future of the Meng family, but he must not follow blindly and encourage the monarch's sin!"
He evil couldn't help but glare at him:
"Hmph! The Ji family has no superiors and no courtesy for ministers. The king was demoted to the fourth pretty by him, but he enjoys the eighth pretty! Such traitorous ministers will be punished by everyone! Doctors, please do not listen to this person. Sophistry! No matter what, the king is the king and the minister is the minister, how can the world be turned upside down?"
"Sect Master, although Yang Hu's family is not prosperous, he is also from the Meng family. Hu came here today for the future of the Meng family. Today the monarch can destroy the Ji family for no reason, then he can destroy the Meng family tomorrow! That's right! As the saying goes, 'good things cannot be lost and evil things cannot last', does the sect master want to sit back and watch the Meng family suffer the same disaster?!"
After hearing this, Xi Er couldn't help but became furious and shouted loudly:
"This is really unreasonable! What a weird thing, Yang Hu, don't let this lesson be false! It's because you, the Ji family, have no regard for the emperor, and that's why the emperor is in trouble for the Ji family today! The Meng family has always been loyal to the emperor, how can you be the ambitious Ji family? What can I compare to?"
"Sect Master, the tiger and the Meng family share the same origin, so they will never harm the Meng family! But... this evil is hard to say!"
Meng Sunheji was still young. Whenever he encountered such a situation, he didn't know how to reply for a moment. Sitting in the position of the sect leader, he looked around and had difficulty making a decision.
He E further said:
"Yang Hu! You are from the Meng family's sideline, but why do you want to serve the Ji family? Speaking of this matter, no matter how loud your voice is, can you still confuse right and wrong? The Ji family is ambitious and has no superiority. And you are acting like a tiger, and today you are dragging Meng along with you, you are worse than a dog and a pig! You are disdainful to others!"
Yang Hu rolled up his sleeves and scolded:
"Evil! You said that I am a tiger but a dog is not as good as a pig? And what about you? You lose your mind by playing with things, and you still have to cheat when fighting a chicken. What do you have to do to bark like this?!"
Yang Hu and He E were talking and about to start a fight. Meng Sunhe Ji suddenly trembled with fright, and couldn't help being frightened to the point of losing control.
Seeing this situation, the Meng clan knew that it would be too embarrassing if it continued like this, so they asked Yang Hu and He E to leave first so that they could discuss it before making a decision.
When Yang Hu and He E saw Meng Sun He Ji acting like a child, they had no choice but to exit the living room. However, since they had not completed their task, they naturally did not want to leave, so they just waited in the courtyard.
The two looked at each other covetously, but Yang Hu was too tall, which made Li E feel a strong sense of oppression.
Meng Sunheji was at a loss and didn't know what to do.
After the death of Meng Xizi, the young master of the Meng family was young, and these retainers were all without masters. Naturally, they did not want to offend the Ji family, nor did they want to offend the monarch.
Seeing these retainers, Meng Sun Heji was also undecided. Looking at his younger brother Meng Shuo, he suddenly thought of his teacher Confucius and immediately sent someone to Xingtan to invite Confucius.
Not long after the people who were sent out left, Yang Hu couldn't hold himself back any longer and immediately rushed in. Upon seeing this, He Evil followed behind him.
Yang Hu was tall and quick in movement. He came directly to Meng Sun Heji and grabbed his wrist.
"Bold! You are just a retainer of the Ji family, how could you be so rude to the master of the Meng family!"
He evil immediately shouted.
Yang Hu sneered:
"Sect Master, I forgive the tiger for being rude, but please come up with the tiger and take a look!"
