Chapter 103: Fish and Bear's Paws, a Difficult Sutra

"A thief who misleads the country! If you hadn't been the thief from this, the Wu army had crossed the river for two days - now that he missed the military opportunity, what else do you have to say?"

General Luo Gan's head was covered with white hair shaking with the roaring sound, just like the mane that the lion swung when running, and saliva sprayed directly onto the face of Grand Sima Gu Chen, forcing Gu Chen to cover his mouth and nose with his robe sleeve.

What he said about delaying the military opportunity was not that Lu Wu was defeated in Nanhe Prefecture and Wu lost the opportunity to obtain Nanhe Prefecture, but that Lu Wu had mastered Nanhe Prefecture alone, and Wu lost the opportunity to pick peaches smoothly.

I have never tried my best to fight to the death before, but now I want Lu Wu to offer her to Nanhe Mansion, it will be much more difficult.

Grand Sima Gu Chen was seven feet and four inches tall, over fifty years old, with a white face as jade, five long beards hanging under his jaw, wearing a gilded black croaker robe, but was unable to avoid it by General Luo Gan grabbing his sleeves.

He didn't think that the general had bad breath, but did not cover his mouth and nose. He was afraid that as soon as he opened his mouth and made a speech, he would be splashed into his mouth by the other party's saliva.

"Don't misunderstand the general. I didn't say I wouldn't send someone to pick up the doctor Jinwu, but if the reputation is not right, the words are not right. If we directly send troops across the river, wouldn't we be sure to fight undeclared?" Gu Chen tried his best to defend himself.

Lu Wu captured Nanhe Prefecture without the instruction of Wu.

The State of Wu did not send troops, which could also be explained as Lu Wu's personal behavior. If a large army crossed the river to help with the war, it would be a war between countries, and it would be an undeclared war.

In this era, the consequences of undeclared war are very serious.

More than a hundred years ago, there were seven powerful countries in the Central Plains. Among them, Qin State fought undeclaredly and set up fifteen cities in Zhao State within a month. In the end, because of its despicable behavior, the other six countries jointly destroyed the country. The Qin royal family fled north from the Central Plains. For example, the Wu State is still miserable and almost became a savage.

Now the Qin royal family annexed the thirty-two countries outside the territory, making a comeback, stepping into the Central Plains with one foot.

Although Qin State was stronger than the five heroes of the Central Plains, it was still called the Savage.

The King of Qin did not even have the qualifications to participate in the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, which was chaired by the emperor every sixty years, and could only stand by as a waiter.

The six Central Plains established a covenant of heaven and earth (including the Kingdom of Wu) during the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven. Once the Qin State stepped on Wuqi Mountain, they would attack it together.

(The ceremony of sacrifice to heaven is presided over by the emperor, and the address is on Kunlun sacred mountain, once every sixty years.)

"The Grand Sima's words are reasonable." Some people agreed.

"It is a rude barbarian war, but we must not do this."

"Don't you want Zhenjiang Mansion?"

"The former king named the study room Changhen Pavilion. Now he has the opportunity to regain the old land, how can he miss it?"

“That’s it.”

All the officials were talking about it. In short, the Wu Kingdom must be the one that Zhenjiang Prefecture (Nanhe Prefecture) is necessary. If God does not take it, he will suffer the blame; however, the Wu Kingdom must not take the blame for the undeclared war.

This is a bit difficult.

———————————————

The king and ministers of Wu Kingdom were confused, and the Lu family was not very at ease.

Lu Wu's father Lu Jinhe has turned a lot whiter during this period.

The reward was well received. Not only did he not want the uneasy son of his family, he also ran away with a bucket, leaving a bunch of messes, which made Lu Jinhe smile everywhere and finally got the fief.

If you choose a fiefdom and want the vassal to be present in person, even parents and children cannot be collected on your behalf.

Because the fiefdom is too important, it is almost a shrinking version of the throne battle, and there are no fewer brothers fighting against each other, and father and son are turning against each other.

If it weren't for the letters left by Lu Wu and the endorsement of King Kutu of Wu, Lu Jinhe would at most have obtained a fief under his own name, and it would never have been possible to obtain a fief under Lu Wu's name. However, if the Lu family wants to develop a fief, it is naturally more convenient to connect it together.

This is just one of them.

The Lu family is a business, and uses the method of spreading branches and leaves to spread risks. The branches are not so much affiliation relationship between the upper and lower branches, but more like a franchise store relationship. In order to avoid risks, most branches do not have the surname Lu.

As the head of the Lu family, Lu Jinhe's main job is to coordinate this huge business network, so that everyone can make money together, communicate with each other, and resist risks, and do not have absolute control - he only has the control of the Lu family's direct line.

Above the Lu Jin River, the Lu family also has a Presbyterian Church, which is composed of retired heads of each family. In terms of authority, it is even more on the contemporary Lu Jin River, but it does not directly interfere in the affairs of the Lu family.

Now the Lu family suddenly has two doctors and two territories, but it is another matter.

The Lu family in various places had no objection to concentrating the efforts of the entire clan to develop territory, enhancing the Lu family, and turning the Lu family into a noble inheritance.

But if everyone devotes all their efforts to build the territory and eventually becomes a slave, then no one is willing to do it - Wu State is relatively conservative, and the nobles have the power to enforce the law in their territory.

So the Lu family's pioneer team has not yet arrived in southern Xinjiang, and the territory is still unknown. The Lu family has already quarreled about future rights and interests distribution.

After a quarrel, Lu Jinhe was extremely tired. He sat on a chair, pinching his nose bridge with his fingers to relax, but he thought of his three sons in his mind.

Although he was tired, as long as he thought of these three sons, Lu Jinhe couldn't help but smile.

All three of my sons are very successful.

Wu'er, who originally thought he was a playboy, quietly became a military general, saved the Lu family in the crisis and sent the Lu family to the position of doctor.

This child is a maverick since childhood - if he is not capable, he is called laziness. Since he has become a military general, he is naturally a maverick - he runs away without going well.

I don’t know if Master Jiao Heng found Wuer.

With an old man like Jiao Heng around, Wu'er might be more steady. It would be even better if Master Jiao could persuade him to change his mind.

The eldest son Lu Song, who is the pseudonym Lu Song in Chengdu, Chu, was in charge of the Lu family business. In the past two years, Lu Song worked hard to make a living, and made some powerful people in the Chu State, and expanded the business more than twice.

Although he had sent someone to inform him to entrust the business to others and he quickly returned to China to preside over the construction of the territory, there was no news yet, which was also a worrying thing.

As for the second son Lu Bai, he did not change his name, but he traveled around and would only send a letter back through the chamber of commerce when he passed by the big city. The person sent to find him has not been contacted yet.

"The mistress hasn't returned home yet?" Lu Jinhe asked with his fingers pinching the bridge of his nose.

If the three wives were at home, they had already come to ask about their well-being and help them massage their heads and relax their spirits, and he wouldn't have to pinch the bridge of their noses by themselves.

"The mistress was recruited by the queen mother into the palace and spoke again." Lu Jin, the attendant standing behind him, replied respectfully.

One person was promoted to heaven by the chicken and dog, and the Lu family was promoted to the family of doctors. These servants of the family also became servants and were directly liberated from slavery.
