It didn't take long before Zhou Yu and Tai Shici came first. When both of them saw the dead Yuan Yin, they sat down without saying anything. Immediately afterwards, the chief secretary Zhao Gui, the county magistrate Li Qian, and the meritorious officer Chen Shan also came together.
Everyone, take a seat.
Zhao Gui, Chen Shan and Li Qian noticed Yuan Yin who was killed on the ground, looking thoughtful.
Lu Xuan did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "Everyone, the man who was killed on the ground is named Yuan Yin. He is Yuan Shu's cousin. He came to Lujiang County on Yuan Shu's order to ask for 30,000 shi of food."
"My father said that Lujiang County had no food and would not allow Yuan Shu to rebel like this. He refused Yuan Shu's blackmail. Yuan Yin threatened that if Lujiang County did not provide food, Yuan Shu would break Lujiang and destroy the Lu family."
"In desperation, I can only kill Yuan Yin. I invite you here to discuss how to deal with Yuan Shu."
Zhou Yu and Tai Shici looked calm.
The two of them had known for a long time that there would be a battle with Yuan Shu, and they had been preparing for the battle.
Chen Shan, the meritorious scholar, was a little fat. His expression on his face changed drastically. He stood up impatiently, looked at Lu Kang, and said, "Master Fu, Yuan Yin is Yuan Shu's cousin. Killing him is equal to peace." Yuan Shu is tearing his face apart, this is a revelation to God."
Fujun is a respectful title for the prefect.
Chen Shan didn't care about Lu Xuan, he was just a yellow-haired boy. In front of Lu Kang, Chen Shan did not dare to be presumptuous and was respectful.
Lu Kang said calmly: "I haven't been feeling well these days and have no energy to deal with government affairs. Therefore, the affairs of Lujiang County are temporarily left to Lu Xuan. If Chen Gongcao has any problems, please tell Lu Xuan directly."
brush!
Chen Shan's expression changed suddenly.
Is Lu Kang delegating power?
Chen Shan was unhappy, looked at Lu Kang, and continued: "Master Fu, nephew Lu Xian has great literary talent and is indeed a rare young hero. But he is too young, willful and unscrupulous, and does things without considering the consequences."
"Killing Yuan Yin will have serious consequences."
"On the one hand, what Nephew Lu did has broken the rule of not killing the envoys when the two armies are fighting. If word spread, it will be detrimental to the prince. On the other hand, Yuan Shu is powerful and tyrannical, and we cannot offend him."
"Kill Yuan Yin and you will have a mortal enemy with Yuan Shu."
"Lujiang County is located in a corner and has always been very stable. Now because of Lu Xiannephew's impulse, Lujiang County will definitely fall into war."
Chen Shan became more and more irritable, glanced at Lu Xuan, and scolded: "What nephew Lu Xian did is simply nonsense."
Lu Xuan sneered and asked, "What does Chen Gongcao think we should do?"
Chen Shan said forcefully: "The only way now is to apologize to Yuan Shu."
Lu Xuan asked again: "How to apologize?"
Chen Shan said: "First, Lujiang County has money and food. Yuan Shu wants 30,000 shi of food, so give it to him. Second, nephew Lu Xian went to Shouchun in person to plead guilty to Yuan Shu. With the reputation of the prince, and the food given to him, If my nephew apologizes in person, Yuan Shu will forget about it."
Lu Xuan sneered in his heart.
As expected, Zhang Zhao guessed it right.
The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds. Especially when meeting someone like Yuan Shu, there must be something wrong with him internally.
Lu Xuan wanted to unify his opinions and understand other people's opinions. He did not express his position immediately. He looked at Zhao Gui and Li Qian and asked: "Master Zhao, Li Juncheng, what are your opinions?"
Zhao Gui said: "I completely disagree with Chen Gongcao's suggestion. If Yuan Shu wants food, we will give it to him. Are we Yuan Shu's filial sons and grandsons? I don't know if he doesn't have long bones. I gave up when I heard Yuan Shu."
Chen Shan's face turned cold and he said, "Zhao Gui, what do you mean? What I did was for the safety of Lujiang County. Once there is a war in Lujiang County, will you resist it?"
"I'll block it."
Zhao Gui flicked his sleeves and said forcefully: "As long as I am here, I will fight Yuan Shu to the end."
Li Qian echoed: "I agree with Chief Zhao's suggestion. Lujiang County will never surrender to Yuan Shu. In my opinion, the young master killed Yuan Yin well. He killed Yuan Yin well and brought out the prestige of our Lujiang County."
Chen Shan had a cold face and mocked: "A group of people are overestimating their own capabilities. You keep saying you want to resist Yuan Shu, so what are you going to do with it? Yuan Shu's army has been battle-hardened for a long time and is unbeatable. I asked Lu Xuan to apologize for the sake of the government. You are good, and it is for the good of Lujiang County."
"It's not too late to apologize now."
"When the war broke out and Yuan Shu refused to accept the apology, it would be too late to make amends."
Chen Shan stared at Lu Xuan and said: "Lu Xuan, because of your random actions, the entire Lujiang River fell into war. By then, not only one or two people would die, but not a little money would be lost. Can you bear the responsibility?" "
Lu Xuan's heart boiled with murderous intent, and he said coldly: "I heard that people in the world are generally divided into two types. The first type is those who are proud and proud, such as Master Zhao and Li Juncheng. They are powerful and unyielding, and are not afraid of life and death. .”
"There is another kind of person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and is extremely despicable at heart."
Lu Xuan looked disdainful and said, "There is no doubt that Chen Gongcao is such a person."
Chen Shan's expression changed again and again.
In front of everyone, Lu Xuan mocked him and targeted him without giving an explanation. How could he, Chen Shan, stand on his own?
Chen Shan looked at Lu Xuan with disgust in his eyes and scolded: "Lu Xuan, you are bold, domineering and vicious. Do you think that because you are the son of the prince, you can do whatever you want? I tell you, it is impossible."
Chen Shan became excited.
He strode up to Lu Xuan, spitting, and continued: "When the Lord came to take office in Lujiang County, it was I who assisted him in stabilizing Lujiang County. I owe three-thirds of the credit for the stability of Lujiang County now."
"You, Lu Xuan, are just a young boy. Who do you think you are? How dare you humiliate me like this?"
"Even the Lord of the House still respects me."
"You are too arrogant."
Chen Shan said very domineeringly: "Today, if you don't give me an explanation, I will never give up. I respect the prince, but this is not the reason why you, Lu Xuan, can humiliate me."
Lu Xuan stood up and said calmly: "If you want an explanation, I will give you an explanation."
Sonorous!
Suddenly, a crisp sound came out.
A cold light flashed, Lu Xuan unsheathed his sword and slashed it out. The sharp sword edge flew through the air and was in front of Chen Shan in an instant.
Chen Shan's scalp was numb and his expression was horrified. Before he could speak, he instinctively prepared to retreat immediately. Unfortunately, Chen Shan was fat and too slow. The moment he made the move, the sword blade was already in front of him.
Zhila!
The sword blade scratched his neck, leaving a trail of blood.
The next moment, the blood stain collapsed.
Red blood spurted out from his neck in an instant.
When Chen Shan reached his mouth, he stopped because blood surged up from his cut neck. He only felt darkness around him, and the world was spinning. In a blink of an eye, he fell to the ground with a plop.
