Wang, Gong, Hou, Bo, Zi, Male, these are the titles of the Zhou Dynasty.
The prince is basically a member of the royal family, and despite the fact that the first ancestor of the Great Zhou Dynasty enfeoffed several people, in the 500 years since the founding of the dynasty, no one could be found.
Dukes are also extremely rare!
All of them are veterans who guard the frontier, have great military exploits, or are the pillars of the court.
The old general Xuan Wuyun, who was famous as the god of war in the Zhou Dynasty, was only a prince of ten thousand households with a household of fifty thousand households until his death.
Emperor Chang'an was really willing to spend a lot of money in order to win over Lu Jiuzhang.
After the eunuch left, Lu Jiuzhang returned to the inn with the imperial edict.
"Yes, I gained a lot from entering the palace this time."
The second uncle Luo Fusheng said with a smile.
"This is just a reward, there are many rewards for the Iron-Blooded Camp. When I return to Yiyun County, the rewards will probably arrive." Lu Jiuzhang said, "I have asked Emperor Chang'an to replace him with someone from the royal family lineage.
Chance."
"Do you want the members of the Royal Council of Elders to help me?" Luo Fusheng asked.
"Yes, there are very few people in the world who can help you." Lu Jiuzhang sighed, "You are my second uncle after all. Although we are not my relatives, I can't just watch you die."
"You guys are afraid that if I die, no one will help you to avoid disaster, right?" Luo Fusheng sneered.
"Second uncle, you are judging a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart."
Lu Jiuzhang will definitely refuse to admit it to his death.
"Come on, I've seen everything about you little Jiujiu." The second uncle Luo Fusheng rolled his eyes at Lu Jiuzhang, "But what about that girl Zhao Yuru?"
"It's easy to handle. I have surrendered to Emperor Chang'an. If she is here with me, she is also a member of Emperor Chang'an. If it doesn't work, just tell the outside world that she is my woman. Marry a chicken, follow a chicken, marry a dog, follow a dog. She will follow me from now on.
Serve Emperor Chang'an."
Lu Jiuzhang smiled.
"You kid, do you really plan to join Emperor Chang'an? I know that girl Zhou Yao, the empress, is not someone who is easy to fool. She is very ruthless. There may not be a chance to regain power in the future." Second uncle Luo Fusheng
Said, "What should we do if she settles the score after the fall?
"Soldiers have come to cover up the water and earth. What else can be done? Am I now defying Emperor Chang'an in public and asking him to kill me?" Lu Jiuzhang said, "If you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of not having firewood!"
"That's right! Living is better than anything else."
Luo Fusheng nodded.
He knew that Lu Jiuzhang was a cunning person, but there were some things that he couldn't get rid of once he got involved.
However, what Lu Jiuzhang said is right: when soldiers come, the water will be blocked and the earth will cover it.
It's just for survival.
…
Zhao family.
The ancestor of the Zhao family looked a little complicated after receiving the news that Lu Jiuzhang had defected to Emperor Chang'an.
I thought that according to Lu Jiuzhang's character, he would be upright and contradict Emperor Chang'an head-on.
Unexpectedly, he eventually became Emperor Chang'an's men and gained so many benefits.
In real comparison, the Zhao family is the worst off. They spent 80 million taels of gold to buy Ping An!
"Ancestor, do you no longer need to hunt down Zhao Yuru's parents?" asked the current head of the Zhao family.
"What are you hunting for? They are all Emperor Chang'an's people and have become part of a faction. What else is there to hunt for?" The ancestor said angrily, "On the other hand, what the hell is Lu Jiuzhang doing?"
Nanxiang County.
I saw the dossier submitted by the informant.
Pei Yunzhang frowned.
During this time, he finally recovered, but the situation became increasingly out of control.
First, Lu Jiuzhang occupied Yiyun County. This was an important strategic position that he had planned for a long time. It would be extremely difficult to snatch Yiyun County away from Lu Jiuzhang.
In addition, Shuizhou County became independent and sent another batch of supplies to Lu Jiuzhang.
"My lord, Lu Jiuzhang has defected to the new emperor. What do you think?"
Yang Wuyun looked at Pei Yunzhang and asked.
"What else can we do? Now that this kid has gained power, it is getting harder and harder to deal with him." Pei Yunzhang said, "Last time when he led tens of thousands of warriors from the training ground and broke through the encirclement, we should have killed him at all costs."
"A true gentleman is easy to deal with, but people like Lu Jiuzhang are too cunning."
"The future must be a formidable enemy!"
Pei Yunzhang put the file aside.
He couldn't help but think of the old general Xuan Wuyun.
This kind of person is upright throughout his life, and a small mistake will completely ruin his reputation.
Even without anyone else taking action, he might commit suicide.
For a person like Lu Jiuzhang, it would be harder for him to die than to ascend to heaven.
"Let our spies go out and spread the news that Lu Jiuzhang pretended to defect to Emperor Chang'an, but in fact he was trying to preserve his own strength so that he could provide support from the army when the Empress Zhou Yao makes a comeback."
Pei Yunzhang ordered.
"But is this rumor useful? Emperor Chang'an is not a fool." Yang Wuyun was puzzled.
"It is precisely because you are not a fool that you spread such an order."
Pei Yunzhang said, "Even if there is only a little suspicion, it is difficult to eliminate it. Once there is a gap between two people, the gap will become bigger and bigger, and eventually it will get out of hand."
"Even if Emperor Chang'an still wants to train Lu Jiuzhang, after this rumor comes out, Emperor Chang'an will think about it for a while."
"You have to know that there are only two types of people in the world that are the most difficult to deal with. One is particularly stupid, the kind of person who accepts death and tries to get into trouble. It is very difficult for such a person to change her mind!"
"The other kind is the extremely smart ones, like me."
Pei Yunzhang boasted, "The hardest to fool, because he is very smart."
"The best thing to deal with is the kind of person who is a little smart but not much. A casual piece of information can easily make him think for a long time. Sometimes if he thinks too much, he will have strange thoughts."
Pei Yunzhang looked at Yang Wuyun, "Have you ever hated me because of the saint girl of Ziyun Sect?"
"Nothing!"
Yang Wuyun quickly shook his head.
In fact, I can't even speak of holding a grudge, I'm just a little unconvinced and unwilling.
"I talked with the Ziyun Sect and asked them to betroth the saint to you. I married another elder Xuanzhen of the Ziyun Sect." Pei Yunzhang said.
"My Lord, Elder Xuanzhen must be seventy or eighty years old this year, right? You..." Yang Wuyun was extremely excited, but he was not worth it for Pei Yunzhang.
"Look, you are one of those people who is a little smart but not very smart. Words from others can easily change your mind." Pei Yunzhang said with a smile, "Then Emperor Chang'an is not like that?"
"But I have my own ideas about marrying Elder Xuanzhen." Pei Yunzhang said, "I am a bit older, but a female junior can hold a gold nugget. A female senior in her thirties will dominate the world!"
Elder Xuanzhen is now at the second level of martial arts.
If you go one step further, you will reach the first level of martial arts.
In Ziyun Sect, Elder Xuanzhen also has great power.
With Elder Xuanzhen as his support and his complete subjugation, Pei Yunzhang will have more and more say in front of the three major relic sects.
