It’s midsummer in August, and the sun is blazing.
In order to show his respect for the hero, Sun Quan buried Han Dang under the sun. All civil and military officials from Jianye City were present, including Lu Cong, who had no dealings with Han Zong.
Han Zong expressed his gratitude to everyone who came to the scene, except for Lu Cong, who "regardless of past grudges", which made Lu Cong's face black and blue.
At three o'clock, Han Dang's funeral ended.
Sun Quan's face was covered with sweat from the sun. When he was about to board the car and return to Jianye, a horse riding in the smoke came not far away.
"Lord, be careful." The guard tiger immediately stood in front of Sun Quan.
The man fell off his horse two feet away and rolled towards the crowd. His face stained with sweat was full of panic and anxiety, and he searched for the person he was looking for while running.
After locking his target on Lu Cong, the man ran over with a cry in his voice: "Young Master, something has happened..."
Lu Cong looked at the others in embarrassment, because the person coming was a personal entourage of the Lu family. In such a serious occasion, it would be extremely rude to shout and yell, especially when Sun Quan was still present.
"Ha...what a big disaster..." Han Zong teased in a strange way, and Sun Quan frowned slightly.
Lu Cong scolded him in a deep voice: "Uncle Chen, my lord is here too. How can you behave in such a panic?"
Uncle Chen ignored it, but reported with a mournful face: "The master of the family was seriously injured in an assassination, and he is in danger now."
"What did you say? Lu Cong stepped forward anxiously.
"The head of the family and the young master went to Jingshan Mountain to escape the summer heat. Unfortunately, they were shot in the chest with a poisonous arrow by an assassin in the forest..." Uncle Chen burst into tears.
"Where's Shutan?" Lu Cong asked.
Uncle Chen swallowed his saliva and replied: "The gangster's initial target was the Third Young Master. The family leader was hit by an arrow just to protect him. The family general resisted and repelled the assassin, but the family leader was shot in the vital part. Now... woo woo... "
Lu Cong quickly came to Sun Quan's side, holding back his sadness and clasping his fists to report: "My lord, something unexpected happened to Zhong Han, Cong please go first."
"Meng Ze, go quickly. The imperial doctor will arrive soon." Sun Quan looked solemn.
"Thank you, lord. I'll take my leave."
Lu Cong clasped his fists in salute and rode away with Uncle Chen. Wen and Wu who were attending Han Dang's funeral couldn't help but sigh. The accompanying servants each fetched horses and carriages to prepare for returning to the city.
The moment Sun Quan boarded the car with a dark face, he heard a discordant sound from behind.
"Hmph, someone has done a lot of injustice, and it's really hard to get retribution..."
Sun Quan stopped and looked for information, and found that Han Zong was still the same "small-minded" person. He glared at him and got on the carriage, and the accompanying tiger soldiers were divided into two columns, following him to the left and right to escort Sun Quan away.
Everyone present was disdainful of Han Zong's way of adding insult to injury, and shook their heads before leaving Han Dang's cemetery. Han Zong, however, did not take it seriously and secretly felt happy.
"Yuanhe, what you say and do should be based on the occasion. Even if you have a rift with the Lu family, you can't talk nonsense in front of so many people. Besides, isn't the old general the last word? Why do you keep holding on to the governor?" Zhang Zhao deliberately said Stay at the back and teach the "stubborn" Han family children alone.
Han Zong was very arrogant in front of the Lu family, but very polite in front of Zhang Zhao. He clasped his fists and answered calmly: "My nephew asked many people when he went to Jingzhou to move the grave. No one heard that the Lan Ji Formation killed my father, so Gu Jianjun I can’t believe what I said, I was just complaining..."
"It's a false accusation without any basis. People came to General Han's funeral. It's enough to see that the Lu family is open-minded. Why do you continue to pursue it? Isn't the chief governor gone? Since everyone has been laid to rest, I think there should be no more trouble, the master was obviously angry just now." Zhang Zhao's tone was very stern.
"My nephew knows that the military advisor will put in a good word for me. The biggest problem is that if I don't pursue this matter..." Han Zong suddenly seemed very magnanimous. In fact, because Lu Ba was probably going to die, he felt that the bad breath in his chest had been released.
Zhang Zhao shook his head, "I'm going to chase my lord now, you might as well do it yourself..."
Before Han Zong left, he came to Han Dang's grave again.
He bowed and said: "My father is alive in heaven, and the Lu family will suffer the consequences. Lu Ba died today, and Lu Cong and Lu Mu will not be able to have sex for long. Your revenge has been avenged..."
On the way back, Han Zong was in a good mood, and his entourage was as heavy as the cicada.
"Major General, don't you think there's something fishy about this? I mentioned the idea of kidnapping Lu Mu at home a few days ago. Today someone actually kidnapped Lu Mu and shot Lu Ba with poisonous arrows. Isn't this a coincidence? How many?" Xianyu squeezed and drank
"Lü Meng did a lot of immoral things, and some people want to cause trouble for his descendants. I buried my father today, and many pairs of Jiangdong eyes are watching. You can't say it was me, right? How can casual remarks count? No matter what I would like to thank any hero who did this."
Although Han Zong acted disapprovingly, he secretly thought that Brother Sima was a bit powerful. He found the assassin in such a short time. After all, he was a descendant of Zhongyuan's rich family.
In the afternoon, everyone returned to Han's house. Xian Yu Xiao Feng Fan Huan Juan Mo then called the family's entourage to count the number of people. It turned out that there was a missing group of people staying in Han's house. The leader was Han Zong's confidant Chang Gao.
People from Xianyu Sheng Grasshopper inquired and learned that Chang Gao and those few people had left the house without asking for permission. The answer to Lu Ba's assassination was about to come out.
Han Zong didn't expect that Chang Gao would lead people to do important things just by saying it casually. He tapped his forehead frequently with his left index and middle fingers, and after a long time he said leisurely: "What do you think we are afraid of? Today I am burying my father." , Not to mention that the lord may not be able to find out, even if it is found out, so what? Don’t forget that Yang Tai and the others have irrefutable evidence."
Xian Yuqiong was startled and admonished: "Young General, it's best not to admit that Governor Lu had many good friends during his lifetime, and the lord was particularly fond of him. If the wrath of Thunder is really unleashed, the Han family may not be able to gain a foothold in Jiangdong... .”
Hiss... Han Zong took a breath of cold air and quickly ordered: "Hurry up and inquire about Lu Mansion to see if Lu Ba is dead. If he is, please invite two doctors to come over."
"This...does this count as self-inflicted?" Xianyu licked his face in embarrassment.
In fact, Han Zong didn't need to send anyone to inquire, because Lu Cong died when Lu Cong returned home.
After Sun Quan arrived, he suppressed the anger in his chest. After comforting the children of the Lu family, he left Zhuge Jin to help organize Lu Ba's funeral while he returned to the palace angrily.
"This is really unreasonable. Why are there endless assassins and endless funerals?" Sun Quan was so angry that he threw several glasses.
After a while, Zhang Zhao broke into the hall.
Looking at the mess on the ground, he picked up a piece of debris and handed it to Sun Quan: "I just asked the old minister that the assassin was a hunter near Jingshan Mountain. After the incident, Zihuang led his troops to search the mountain, but so far he has not found anything... "
Sun Quan gritted his teeth: "It's another hunter in the mountains. It's exactly the same as my brother's assassination. This is a slap in my face. Call me Yu Zecheng."
"Now? Should we be more cautious..." Zhang Zhao reminded in a low voice.
"Well...remember to be secretive..."
