"Jinju has been spoiled by her husband since she was a child. In these days, as her husband is fighting in the army and spending more time fighting than studying, her temper has become more and more rough - please forgive me for any rudeness. ." Qiutong stood up, clasped his fists in front of Lu Changshi and Lu Yunshi, and made a military salute.
Now Qiu Tong has to take charge of his own business. In addition to using strong and explosive methods, he has also been doing a lot of reading during this period. Although the Zhechong Division mainly relies on military power to violently suppress the local area, it cannot rely solely on violent means internally. This statement is quite clear. It also vaguely points out that we are generals who follow our husbands on the battlefield and do not play such small tricks as fighting for favor in the harem.
Lu Yunshi was a little unhappy, but this was not the Lu Mansion. The five Qiutong girls opposite were wearing a pair of half-length armor under their tuanhua robes. Although it was not the murderous full-body ferocious heavy armor, but from the armor On the knife marks and arrow wounds, there is still a vague aura of heroic appearance and experienced battles.
During this period, Qiutong and others had indeed cleaned up many large families. Most of them naturally obeyed orders, but there were also many eldest sons of the family who already had some money and influence. In order to cultivate family heirs, all the large families basically let them go early. Participate in family operations.
When this kind of knife is placed on the neck, some people will quit obediently, considering the overall situation, while some people would rather fight to the death.
These people either acted alone or joined forces, promised huge sums of money, and recruited desperate people to resist. Of course, they were no match for a large army in a head-on confrontation, but they organized more than ten assassinations during this period, and even hired innate talents who were good at assassinations. Experts - in the middle, there are also secret moves to coordinate secretly, hoping to fish in troubled waters.
As for the result, just by looking at Qiutong and the others, you can tell what happened to the assassins.
However, they were not without success. At least Qiu Tong and others even went out to greet the visitors from the Wu Kingdom and marched in large numbers with great fanfare. This shows that they still felt threatened by the assassins.
Lu Yun's family was a maid, and she had some experience in taking care of the Lu family's backyard on weekdays. She felt a little guilty when faced with the fifth daughter of Qiu Tong, who now had a murderous temperament. Therefore, even if she was Lu Wu's mother, she did not dare to do it. He immediately had a seizure, but turned to look at his eldest sister, Lu Changshi.
Mrs. Lu Chang smiled and was not angry, and acted like an elder: "The same goes for Wu'er. Letting you five girls take the lead alone and risk your lives is really embarrassing for you."
"I don't dare. Husband and wife are one body, and now my husband is unable to do anything else, so we naturally have no shirking responsibility. What does this risk mean?" Qiu Tong stood up straight and said with a smile.
"Qiu Tong, Auntie is not trying to embarrass you, but Wu'er has founded a country and sealed the frontiers. The person who presides over Zhongzhu must have a good background, and the alliance between Wu and Yue must use this marriage as a medium to support Wu'er. That’s all.” Lu Chang said gently.
Lin Ji and Lu Wu should have said this separately, but Lu Wu had not returned from Tonghe Prefecture. As a man, Lin Ji could not put pressure on Lu Wu's wife, otherwise the stupid boy might not buy him if he got angry. Face - although Lin Ji was an elder, he really didn't dare to bet on this.
"Auntie, Qiu Tong understands the seriousness of this matter. However, it is up to the husband to make the decision. Qiu Tong was just a maid of her husband. She fell in love with her husband and got married. How can she make a promise to her husband without permission?" Qiu Tong is neither soft nor hard. He pushed back.
If she were in Wutong Village, Qiu Tong would not dare to contradict Lu Wu's legitimate mother like this. However, in order to avoid the marriage proposal, Lu Wu was willing to leave Chu State, and Qiu Tong knew Lu Wu's intentions.
This intention is not necessarily about loving her - even if they become husband and wife, except for the status and power, the way we get along has basically not changed - but a strong and unyielding intention of not being willing to be manipulated by others.
"Yes, then we will stay temporarily until Wu'er comes back." Mr. Lu Chang nodded.
"Nowadays, there is some unrest in Nanhe Mansion, and there are many desperadoes. My husband ordered me to clean up the place. How about asking the two aunts to be gentle and temporarily live in Zhonghe Court? That is the most heavily defended area of the City Lord's Mansion. As for Uncle Lin , please stay at Mingwuyuan, which was originally connected to the courtyard of the city lord's palace guard garrison. Now it has been opened, just in time to accommodate Uncle Lin and the many guards who came with him."
Qiutong is elegant and generous, and the distribution is in an orderly manner.
Work trains people. Qiutong has been on his own during this period, killing decisively and deciding between life and death with just one word. Now his speech and behavior naturally have a calm and elegant tone, giving people the feeling of being used to giving orders.
In fact, the words of the two people have made it very clear. Lu Chang hopes that Qiu Tong will take into account the overall situation and give up the position of the head wife - this is not only the pressure of the Queen Mother Ming Ji, but is indeed planned for Lu Wu and the Lu family. .
Lu Chang's first identity is the mistress of the Lu family.
When Lu Wu became an uncle and founded the country, the Lu family was promoted from a merchant family to a royal family of Bojun. Although there are some dangers in it, this kind of danger is a good thing that many nobles dream of and can only dream of!
Especially since this matter was initiated by Lu Wu. If it succeeds, the Lu family will benefit. If it fails, the Lu family may not suffer much loss. At least it will be a noble family. It can be said that it can't be described as a fortune.
But since Lu Wu has embarked on this road, if he advances, he still has some hope, but if he retreats, he will definitely be a dead end.
At this moment, even half a point of help is good, not to mention that the three parties Wu, Yue, Lu and Wu have a media, and they can naturally form an alliance, and the help is more than half a point?
These things were not entirely analyzed by Lu Chang herself, but were gradually instilled in her mind after Queen Mother Mingji summoned Lu Chang again and again to communicate with her emotionally and analyze the situation.
But Qiu Tong almost made it clear that his wife's identity was recognized by Lu Wu. Although he was not married to an open matchmaker, Lu Wu was such a person. Since he could do such a thing, he was naturally not afraid of people telling him - maybe in Songjing of Wu State, He was still a little scrupulous around his parents, but now that he has made it clear that he wants to start his own business, what scruples does he have?
If you want to seize the status of the head wife, you can, but let your husband, Lu Wu, make the decision himself, and no one else’s opinions will matter.

At night, Zhonghe Court.
Zhongheting is located in the center of the City Lord's Mansion, and is also the most majestic place in the City Lord's Mansion. The three-story high-rise building points directly to the sky, the ten-acre square is paved with bluestone, and the wing rooms and other ancillary buildings are arranged in a strict left-right symmetry.
This was originally the residence of the city lord (who was in charge of affairs) of Nanhe City.
Of course, there are plenty of rooms in a place like this, but Lu Changshi and Lu Yunshi still slept in the same room so that they could talk to each other.
"Miss, that Jin Ju was so rude today, and so was Qiu Tong! She dared to shirk my sister's orders. She really forgot her duty. When Wu'er comes back, I will tell Wu'er to divorce her! Lu Yunshi said angrily.
Lu Yunshi was born as a maid of Lu Changshi. She relied on serving the young lady loyally since she was a child, and was finally promoted to the master's concubine. What she despised the most was this kind of person who didn't understand the rules. maid.
