Later, Zilu resigned from Confucius.
He did not dare to delay, so he got on the carriage that day. After several days, he finally arrived in Feiyi.
As for Zilu's journey to Feiyi, Gongshan Buxuan and Shusun Zui obviously already knew about it.
Before Zilu entered the city, the two of them began to discuss countermeasures there.
Uncle Sun snorted coldly:
"Master Gongshan, I heard that Zhong Zilu is quite brave. I'm afraid the person who came here this time is not a good person!"
Gongshan Buxiu said disdainfully:
"Isn't it possible? A mere mediocre man, what's the big deal? Even if he has unparalleled military power, how can he still be able to defeat the men and horses in this city?!"
Uncle Sunnoi still replied uneasily:
"My lord, it's better to be more careful!"
Hearing this, Gongshan Buhan couldn't help but stand up and clasped his hands behind his back:
"Then... I ordered people to set up a cooking cauldron outside the palace, and prepare swordsmen and axes on the left and right. When this son comes, I will kill him directly and throw him into the oil pan to end the trouble, so as not to cause trouble for the disciples!"
When Uncle Sun heard that Gongshan Buhan was so reckless, he couldn't help but smile:
"Haha, if that's the case... I'm afraid Fei Yi is in danger!"
When Gongshan Buxiang heard this, he asked:
"Oh? How do you say this?"
I saw Uncle Sun shook his head slightly, and said with cupped hands:
"Since this son came to Feiyi, he must have the intention to die! And he is now the head of the Ji family. If you kill him directly, it will be like treason! At that time, the state of Lu will use this as an excuse to raise troops to attack, What do you think, sir?"
Gongshan Buxi heard this, but said with disdain:
"Hmph! There is nothing that I, Gongshan Buhuang, can't do? Think of the marquis prisoners in Liyi, but they are only upright, and they can occupy Liyi to fight against the entire Lu State. But now I, Feiyi, have The city wall is not inferior to that of Li Yi, and the armor of soldiers is several times that of Li Yi. But I, Gongshan Buhu, am the magistrate of Fei Yi, how can I still be afraid of them?!"
When Uncle Sun heard this, he smiled slightly:
"Haha, now the people of Lu regard me as a traitor and want me to die immediately, but I still stay in the country of Lu and have never run away. Speaking of which, I am really alone, and there is nothing to be afraid of! However, Master Gongshan is here for The governor of Ji's Feiyi, who has a different status, can be so unafraid, your Excellency is indeed a strange person!"
When Gongshan Buhuang heard this, he couldn't help but get angry!
However, his anger was not due to the irony and sarcasm that Uncle Sunnoi said to him, but because he was indignant at his own experience.
I heard him sigh again and said angrily:
"I, Gongshan Buxuan, originally guarded Feiyi for his Ji family. I don't know who Ji Sunsi listened to the slander, but he suddenly wanted to knock down the city wall of Feiyi! Huh! Seriously! You bullied me too much!"
"I think that Zhong Zilu must have come here just to fall into Fei Yi! In that case, why should we be polite to him?"
"Ah... that's right! This person is now the Ji family's chief. It must be this person who said all the bad things about Fei Yi in front of Ji Sunsi! Huh! A flattering person like him will be killed. Ji Sunsi If you really dare to stand up for him, then don’t blame me, Gongshan, for being rude and rude!"
When Uncle Sun heard this, he couldn't help but feel secretly happy in his heart, and continued:
"Haha, what Master Gongshan said is absolutely true! This time the king ordered the destruction of Feiyi, which is extremely strange in itself!"
Uncle Sunno was overjoyed when he saw that Gongshan Buhao was gradually showing his betrayal. You must know that for him, only if the Lu country becomes more chaotic, then he will have more opportunities!
So, the two agreed on this.
According to what was said before, Gongshan Buxuan had a dozen swordsmen and axemen ambush around the chamber, and even placed a frying pan in front of the mansion, waiting for Zi Lu to come and die.
Zilu entered Fei Yi and arrived at Fei Yi's mansion, only to find that all the guards were glaring at him angrily.
There was an oil cauldron in front of the meeting hall, which was steaming. Looking at the left and right sides of the curtain, there is a faint golden light shining on it.
Seeing this situation, Zilu also became convinced. But he still remained calm and swaggered into the lobby.
At this time, Gongshan Buxuan and Shusun Zhu were waiting for him in the hall.
Zilu walked forward and reached the hall. He first bowed his hands and bowed, and then said calmly:
"I am Zhong Yu, Zhong Zilu, the Prime Minister of the Ji family. I have been specially ordered by my lord to come to Feiyi to visit the Prime Minister!"
Seeing how polite he was, Gongshan Buhuang just smiled and said:
"Haha, it's hard work for Mr. Zhong to come all the way! Did you see the oil cauldron outside the house when you came?"
When Zilu heard this, he snorted contemptuously and responded:
"Hmph! If Mr. Gongshan wants to cook me, why bother talking about it? It's a pity... If Mr. Gongshan cooks me, I'm afraid he will die soon!"
After Gongshan Buxiang heard this, he couldn't help but burst out in anger again:
"Bold! Who do you think you are? Are you just here to earn my money and fall off the city wall? You are looking down on me too much!"
When Zilu heard this, he burst into laughter and said:
"Hahaha... If Mr. Yi Zai really thinks so, then my Ji family's Fei Yi will really be in danger!"
Then, Zilu sighed again:
"Hey! That's okay! Master Yi Zai can't tell the difference between us and the enemy, and I'm so wronged. I'm afraid that I, the Ji family, have no hope! In this case, there is no need to wait for others to cook me, I will just surrender myself!"
As soon as Zilu said this, he immediately turned around and walked straight to the oil cauldron outside the door.
When Gongshan Buxuan heard these words, he looked at each other and his uncle and grandson looked at each other. He didn't know whether it was true or not, so he could only shout:
"Stop him!"
Hearing Gong Shan Buxi's order, the swordsmen and ax hands hidden on the left and right suddenly sprang out.
However, it was not to take Zilu's life, but to stop him directly.
When Zilu saw this, he couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth slightly, turned his head half way, and said:
"Hmph! Sir, why are you doing this? My lord doesn't care about the life and death of my lord and the Ji family, so why do you want to stop me?"
Gongshan Buxuan was the Prime Minister of Fei Yi, while Zi Lu was currently the Prime Minister of the Ji family. In fact, in terms of status, both internally and externally, the two were almost equal.
So it's okay to call each other "sir".
Gongshan Buxiu waved his hand again, ordering all the swordsmen and axe-hands to retreat, and then he spoke again:
"Just now, Master Cai Zhong said that my lord is in trouble and that the Ji family will fall in love, but I don't know... what does he mean?"
After hearing this, Zilu turned around completely, pretending to be about to speak to him, but his eyes suddenly rested on Shusun Yue beside him.
"Master Gongshan, this matter... is my Ji family's family matter after all. Now that there are others present, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, right?"
But Gongshan Buxuan certainly wouldn't listen to Zilu at this time. He just waved his hand and vetoed:
"Although Uncle Sunnoi is not a member of the Ji clan, he is not considered an outsider now. If you have anything to say, just say it!"
Zilu knew that the two of them were in the same boat, and it was not the time to separate them yet, so he just handed over his hands, and then said:
"Master Yizhai is far away in Feiyi, and I am afraid that you don't know the inside story of some things! In fact... Regarding the fall of the three capitals this time, the lord originally refused to agree. Now, the reason why he has given repeated orders is to have Master Yizhai fall. Going to the city wall is really a last resort!"
When Gongshan Buhuang heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised. Immediately, he ordered his servants to invite Zi Lu to sit down and bring them tea cups and fruit bowls.
But at this time, Shusun Zhuo winked at Gongshan Buxuan, but Gongshan Buxuan just pretended not to see it.
I just heard Gongshan Buxiang say:
"My lord doesn't want to fall into Feiyi, so why do you mention this matter in front of the king?"
When Zilu heard this question, he sighed and said:
"Hey... My lord is now forced by the Shusun family, and all the officials in the court are aware of the chaos in Liyi, and most of them agree with this matter. So my lord is helpless about it!"
When Gongshan Buxuan heard what Zilu said, he couldn't help but ask:
"Oh? So, does it mean that my lord has no intention of falling into Feiyi?"
"Then...you didn't come here to persuade me to commit suicide by falling into the Feiyi city wall?"
Hearing this, Zilu hurriedly raised his hands, shook his head and said:
"Of course not! Zhong You came here this time just for the safety of the Ji family! After the disaster of Yanghu, the Ji family should have prospered and kept a low profile. But now something unexpected happened, and Fei Yi was going to be destroyed. Fei Yi After all, the city is the main city of my Ji family, how can we fall so easily?"
While Uncle Sun was listening, he felt something was wrong:
"Isn't it right? Although you are the head of the Ji family, you are also a disciple of Kong Zhongni! Kong Zhongni has always advocated the public office and has a grudge against the Ji family. He would not want to take this opportunity to suppress Yu. Mr. Ji? You are such a bastard, are you just following your master's orders to earn my money?"
"Zhong Zilu! Do you want to be the second Si Chi?
