"I wonder why King Wu came to see me?" After entering the front hall, Lu Chen and Du Fuwei took their seats. After Su Chang ordered her maid to serve tea, she left the front hall with her maid. Lu Chen looked at Du Fuwei asked.
Du Fuwei said nothing, but glanced at Feng Huai, who was standing behind Lu Chen, and Liu Jing, who was standing beside him.
Seeing Du Fuwei's eyes, Lu Chen immediately realized what Du Fuwei meant. He waved his hand and Liu Jing dragged Feng Huai out of the front hall. However, he did not go far, but stood directly outside the front hall. below the steps.
"There is no one else in the hall! If King Wu has something to say, you might as well speak up!" Lu Chen looked at Du Fuwei and said with a smile.
"Hey!" Du Fuwei hesitated for a moment, then sighed.
"Why did King Wu sigh?" When he saw Du Fuwei sighing directly in front of him without saying anything, he was slightly startled and then asked.
"Mr. Lu, help me!" Unexpectedly, as soon as Lu Chen finished asking, Du Fuwei stood up and saluted Lu Chen deeply. At the same time, his tone was full of sorrow.
"What are you doing, King Wu!" Lu Chen was shocked when he saw Du Fuwei suddenly giving him such a big gift. He quickly got up to get out of the way, and at the same time returned the gift to Du Fuwei, "If I can help King Wu, The place is naturally obligatory, so why does the King of Wu need to give such a gift!" Lu Chen looked at Du Fuwei and said helplessly, after all, Du Fuwei's gift had the smell of rushing a duck to the shelf.
"Hey!" Hearing what Lu Chen said, Du Fuwei sighed again, and then sat back on the chair. Seeing Lu Chen, he continued with some sadness, "The Duke of Danyang was caught in the trap!"
"Oh!" Hearing Du Fuwei's words, Lu Chen said "Oh" and nodded with a very indifferent expression. After all, this matter can be regarded as a major event in the Wude years. It would be strange if this matter could be avoided. Unless Lu Chen deliberately killed Fu Gong'er and Zuo Youxian in advance, Lu Chen didn't have the time to do such a thing.
What's more, if this didn't happen, how could Lu Chen plot against this fierce general?
"Did Duke Lu already know about this?" Seeing Lu Chen's indifferent expression while drinking tea, Du Fuwei looked at Lu Chen with some suspicion and asked.
"I'm not a god, how could I know this in advance? But King Wu still remembers what I said to King Wu that day. King Wu has been away from his fiefdom for a long time, and Fugong himself is a very ambitious person. How could it be possible? Are you willing to live under others for a long time and do some housekeeping work for the King of Wu?" Lu Chen held the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said to Du Fuwei with a smile.
As Lu Chen finished speaking, Du Fuwei suddenly came to his senses. Indeed, Lu Chen had already analyzed the possibility of this happening to him at that time. It was precisely because of this that he arranged for someone to return to Danyang to keep an eye on Fu. Gong Er, and with the return of the people sent, everything developed almost the same as Lu Chen and him.
But one thing gave Du Fuwei a headache, that is, even after Du Fuwei learned about the development of the matter, he found that he was unable to do anything. Although his current power seemed to be the fourth highest figure in the Tang Dynasty, in fact he But he had no substantial power. Even when he left Chang'an City, he was followed by the "five hundred guards."
Du Fuwei now feels that the side of Danyang that he sealed is "out of reach". After thinking about it, Du Fuwei finally decided to come to Lu Chen to seek help from Lu Chen. In the entire Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that Only Lu Chen had the ability to help him.
Even though Lu Chen has no official position, he only has the title of a county prince, but Du Fuwei is very clear about what kind of energy Lu Chen has now. But if Zheng Shanguo's door is destroyed, Du Fuwei will have nothing to do. He knew that the energy and status of Lu Chen, the county prince, in Li Yuan's eyes was much higher than that of himself, the King of Wu, and even some other noble princes.
Just like that, Du Fuweijin shamelessly brought people to Lu Chen to ask for advice.
"Can the King of Wu trust me?" Lu Chen saw that Du Fuwei remained silent, apparently in a state of acquiescence. Lu Chen put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at Du Fuwei and asked.
"Since I can come here to seek help from Duke Lu, I can naturally trust him!" Du Fuwei said solemnly when he saw Lu Chen.
"Okay!" Lu Chen nodded, "This question is not difficult to solve!" Lu Chen looked at Du Fuwei and said.
"What's the explanation?" Du Fuwei looked at Lu Chen with a look of hope on his face.
"But is King Wu really willing to give up?" Lu Chen did not immediately give Du Fuwei the answer he wanted, but asked Du Fuwei directly.
"Give up? How to give up?" Hearing the word "give up" in Lu Chen's mouth, Du Fuwei suddenly felt excited in his heart. He looked at Lu Chen and asked softly. In fact, when Lu Chen said these two words, Du Fuwei Fuwei had already thought about why he was protected by the "Five Hundred Guards" and how he could not understand Li Yuan's thoughts, but those were the territory and army he had worked hard for many years, how could Du Fuwei give them up.
When he brought his son to settle in Chang'an, didn't he just want to preserve his strength and territory? Now Lu Chen's words can directly point to his fundamentals.
"Obviously King Wu already knows what I mean, why bother pretending to be confused?" Lu Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at Du Fuwei.
"My lord, have you ever thought that if your life is gone, what is the use of those things? After all, those things are external possessions. As long as you have life, are you afraid that you will not have the chance to gain power again? The Tang Dynasty is not the only It's so big now!" Lu Chen looked at Du Fuwei and took a strong dose of medicine.
"You are..." Hearing something in Lu Chen's words, Du Fuwei's eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at Lu Chen and said, but just after saying these few words, Lu Chen raised his hand and interrupted him.
"There are some things that you just need to know in your heart! I, the Tang Dynasty, will not limit myself to what is in front of me. There is a lot of land outside the Great Wall and on the coast of the Bohai Sea. With the prince's ability, the ability to open up territories is still Yes, right? Old Ji Fufou is still aiming for a thousand miles! Prince, are you?" Lu Chen looked at Du Fuwei with a smile.
"Thank you for reminding me, sir, I understand!" Du Fuwei rushed directly to Lu Chenyi and cupped his hands, thanking him sincerely.
"My lord, don't be too busy thanking me for now. That's all a long-term plan. But my lord, you are imminent. The trouble is in front of you. If the trouble in front of you is not eliminated, how can you do what this old man is afraid of? Are you?" Lu Chen said with a smile. The ground continued.
"Could it be that the master meant for me to send someone directly..." At this time, Du Fuwei still had the sad and decadent look he had when he first came to Lujiazhuang. A cold light flashed in his eyes and he made a slash with his hand. This action fully reflects the ruthless side of this fierce warrior who once galloped on the battlefield.
"Isn't the prince afraid of being accused of killing his sworn brother?" Lu Chen looked at Du Fuwei's actions and directly reminded Du Fuwei, "If you don't want others to know about it, you can't do it unless you do it yourself, no matter how covert you do it, There will also be someone exposed, and when the time comes, your reputation..."
"But Fugong E has already become disloyal. Is this considered a precautionary measure for me?" After hearing Lu Chen's words, Du Fuwei retorted somewhat unconvinced.
"He is just engaging in collusion and conspiring with Zuo Youxian. Is there any actual evidence?" Lu Chen looked at Du Fuwei and said, "It is not good to have unfounded charges. As the saying goes, catch the traitor and catch the double, and take the thief and get the stolen goods! As long as Fu Gonger dares to rebel, the prince will directly lead the troops to redress the rebellion and eliminate relatives for justice, which is a great achievement!" Lu Chen looked at Du Fuwei and said with a smile.
"Young Master still sees far!" Du Fuwei rushed directly to Lu Chen again and raised his hands, praising him sincerely, "But the auxiliary prince does not have military power in his hands. I have given the military power to my two adopted sons. In his hands, how can Fugong resist?" After praising Lu Chen and receiving such words from Lu Chen at the same time, Du Fuwei seemed to be enlightened and looked at Lu Chen with some doubts.
"Your adopted son, Kan Leng, is stationed in Yuezhou. It is basically impossible for Fugong Er to get the military power in his hands, and the military power in Yuezhou is meaningless to him. The only target is in the hands of Wang Xiongdan. He has military power, and Wang Xiongdan is loyal to the prince. However, although Wang Xiongdan has unparalleled combat power, when it comes to playing this..." Lu Chen pointed to his head, then shook his head, "Besides, my office If the predictions are correct, the day Wang Xiongdan hands over his military power will be the day Wang Xiongdan dies!" At this point, Lu Chen looked at Du Fuwei seriously.
"Of course I believe what you said, but sir, you have to think of a way to save Xiong Dan!" Du Fuwei believed that what Lu Chen said was not alarmist. This kind of thing, in this world, When Lu Chen said this, he also thought about it. He knew about Fu Gong'er. If what Lu Chen said happened, Wang Xiong's birth would definitely end like this, so Du Fuwei directly looked at Lu Chen for advice.
"It's easy! Just play with Fugong Er!" Lu Chen said with a smile, "If he wants to rebel, let him rebel! If he wants military power, give him military power! To put it simply, if you expect it to perish, you will definitely Let's make him crazy first!" Lu Chen picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and looked at Du Fuwei.
"If you want to make it perish, you must first make it crazy!" Du Fuwei smashed Lu Chen's words in his mouth. The more he thought about it, the more reasonable he felt. His eyes lit up, and he rushed to Lu Chen again and cupped his hands, "Tingjun These words really enlightened me!"
"But I still want to remind the prince that after Fugong Er obtains military power, he must leave Danyang within three days. Whether he goes to Yuezhou to join Kan Leng or to Kuizhou to find Li Xiaogong, he must not stay in Danyang anymore. , remember! Remember!" Lu Chen directly warned Du Fuwei.
