Chapter 551 Big Character Poster
On this day and night, there was no moon and no stars, and the entire capital city was shrouded in darkness. Suddenly, a figure sprang out from the alley. This figure pasted a piece of paper with large characters on the wall, and left quickly after pasting it. The same scene happened in many places in the capital.
The next day, many people found the big-character posters on the wall when they went out. Some people who could read read it reflexively, and some timid people left after reading a few lines. Those bold people not only did not go away, but also told those who could not read what was written in the big-character poster after reading it.
Because the big-character posters were posted in alleys, by the time the government got the news, the news had already spread.
Yan Wushuang was having breakfast when he saw Meng Nian walking in anxiously. Yan Wushuang put down the ivory chopsticks in his hand, wiped his mouth, and then asked: "What happened? It made you so anxious."
Meng Nian did not speak, but handed a large letter to Yan Wushuang, and said, "My lord, this thing was discovered this morning, and the streets and alleys are covered with plasters." As for who did it, you can figure it out with your toes. . Meng Nian thought that Yuxi would use assassination to avenge their lord, but he didn't expect to use such a vicious method.
This big-character poster actually listed Yan Wushuang's various crimes. Yan Wushuang did a lot of evil things. He killed two emperors in a row, killed innocent people even children, forced the former queen Han Yuchen to be his concubine, and used the little emperor as a puppet to bring down the emperor to order the princes and so on.
However, the first item on the list of crimes is not about killing the king, nor killing innocent people indiscriminately, nor is it forcibly taking the former queen as a concubine, but stating what Yan Wushuang did to the Duan family.
Yan Wushuang quickly changed his face and asked, "How did Duan Xinrong know about the Duan family?" That day, Duan Yushi was going to help him disclose Zhou Xuan's crime of colluding with the Donghu people with the Song family for treason, but in the end he leaked the news and attracted a lot of attention. Zhou Xuan and Song's counterattack. On that day, because he was angry with Duan Yushi for leaking the news, he lost the evidence he had collected with great difficulty. So although he rescued Duan Xinrong, he threw her into the brothel after saving her. As for the later evidence, it was indeed Yan Wushuang who asked someone to imitate it.
The reason why Yuxi puts the affairs of the Duan family at the forefront is to let everyone see Yan Wushuang's cold-blooded and ruthless true face. Because Duan Yushi helped Yan Wushuang ruin his family, Yan Wushuang was not only not grateful, but sent Duan Yushi's granddaughter to a brothel for sex. Yan Wushuang is so ruthless and ruthless towards his descendants who are kind to him, how can such a person deserve to work for him.
Meng Nian shook his head and said, "It's impossible for Duan Xinrong to know about this. Otherwise, she wouldn't stay in the brothel obediently." Few people knew about this, and he didn't understand where Han Yuxi learned about it. . But what is certain is that Duan Xinrong definitely did not tell her about this.
Yan Wushuang didn't care about the accusations of regicide and indiscriminate killing of innocents. What was done was done, and he never denied it. But now Han Yuxi came to this hand, but with sinister intentions. Once someone believes in this, it is impossible to work hard for him. Yan Wushuang said: "This matter must be covered up as soon as possible."
Meng Nian said with some concern: "My lord, this poster has been posted all over the streets and alleys, and it has already spread. It cannot be covered up." It's not like Meng Nian never persuaded Yan Wushuang about this matter back then. It's just Yan Wushuang's decision to sit down, and no one can change it.
Although he and Han Yuxi were enemies, Meng Nian had to admit that Han Yuxi's counterattack was ruthless and vicious this time, which stumped them all. There is no way to prove this kind of thing, which is why it is said that rumors stop at the wise, because the more you explain things, the more troubles will get worse, and there is no way to get rid of them. So this loss, they are determined.
Yan Wushuang said: "Burn all these things. If you pass on my words again, everyone who criticizes this matter will be arrested." This woman is really his nemesis in fortune-telling, and it will be a disadvantage if you don't take advantage of her.
Although Meng Nian felt that this was not a good way, he could only do so now. However, the negative impact must be great. If you want to eliminate it, you can't do it in a short time.
This time, the big-character posters were posted all over the streets and alleys, and it was hard not to know. Many people even hid this big-character poster privately!
Master Lu Er read the words written on the big-character poster to his father, and after reading, he said: "Father, Princess Pingxi's counterattack this time has greatly damaged Yan Wushuang's reputation." Killing the king and treating the new king as a puppet, Everyone knows these things if they don't write them down. The most concerning thing is the first one. If what is said above is true, those who follow Yan Wushuang will definitely have reservations.
Old Mr. Lu asked: "Maybe what is written on it is true? Such a secret matter, let alone Han Yuxi and Yunqing have no way to find out, even Han Jianming is impossible to know." So Old Mr. Lu thinks that this is Yu Yu Xi framed Yan Wushuang.
Master Lu Er shook his head and said: "Duan Yushi's granddaughter is now in the northwest, and there are nine times out of ten that she told Princess Pingxi about it." Master Lu Er thought that it was impossible for Yunqing and Yuxi to make up such a thing, Otherwise the tone is too low.
Old Mrs. Lu hummed and said, "You're right, but we don't want to get involved in this matter. When gods fight, it's often others who suffer." Yan Wushuang is not a good stubble, and Han Yuxi is not a fuel-efficient lamp. They should just be bystanders.
Master Lu Er was silent for a while and said: "Father, Yan Wushuang has a violent temperament and acts only according to his preferences. Such a person can't go far." I have been working under Yan Wushuang for two years. Also understand. Such a person is a hero, but definitely not a benevolent monarch.
How could Old Master Lu not know what Master Lu Er was thinking, and said: "Han Jianming was able to flee with his whole family that day, because the situation was so chaotic that they were able to leave the capital. The situation is different now, we have a little Any changes will be noticed by Yan Wushuang's people, and the whole family will die and be killed by him." When people get old, they want their family to be safe and sound.
Master Lu Er knew this and said, "Father, I want to leave a retreat for our Lu family." Rebellions often occurred in Shu before, but with Lu Boda around, the situation was still under control. Since Lu Boda's death, the lieutenants are fighting for power, but Lu Gang is too young to be able to suppress it, and now a two-legged situation has formed. The internal struggle greatly affected their strength. Once Yunqing leads troops to attack Shu, Shu will definitely be lost. Following Yan Wushuang has no future, but following Yunqing and Han Yuxi may have a great future.
Old Master Lu did not agree: "Once this matter is leaked out, the whole family will surely lose their lives." Second Master Lu's three sons are all in Shu, and his daughter is in the northwest. On the contrary, the people in the big house have to keep their filial piety, and all of them are in the capital.
After saying this, Old Master Lu's cloudy eyes revealed a gleam of passion: "Second brother, your eldest brother's bones are not cold yet, so you can't do such things that are inferior to animals."
When Master Lu Er heard this, he was very hurt: "Father, I did this for the Lu family. Otherwise, when Yan Wushuang loses power in the future, the Lu family will definitely be exterminated." He has selfish intentions, but more is For the future of the Lu family.
No matter what Master Lu Er said, Old Master Lu disagreed. In the end, Master Lu Er walked out of the yard with a look of disappointment. Back in the backyard, Master Lu Er said to Mrs. Lu Er somewhat dejectedly: "Father did not agree."
Mrs. Lu said: "I said earlier that the old man would not agree, but you don't believe me. The old man is getting old, and he only wants the family to be safe and sound. But how long can the situation be so peaceful now!" Although the second lady Lu didn't understand Government affairs, but looking at what her daughter said in her grandson's letter, she knew that the situation in the Northwest was getting better and better.
Mrs. Lu Er is a mother. She has no lofty thoughts of being loyal to the emperor and serving the country. She just wants to keep her sons safe. Yun Qing and Han Yuxi are so powerful, if his son fights against them, he will die. That's why she wanted her son to defect to Yunqing, not for a future, but only to save his life.
Master Lu Er shook his head and said, "No."
Mrs. Lu Er couldn't understand her husband, so she asked Luo Shuigui to help her deliver a letter to Lu Gang without telling her husband. Luo Shuigui didn't agree at first, but Mrs. Lu knelt and begged, and he was finally defeated.
When Master Lu Er came back from the yamen, Luo Shuigui had already left the capital. Master Lu Er was very angry: "How can you make a good decision on this matter? Do you know that this will kill everyone?"
Mrs. Lu said: "I just know that if I don't send this letter, I will have to send someone with white hair to someone with black hair." She would rather die herself than put her son in danger.
Everyone has already left, and there is no point in arguing anymore. Seeing that her husband was silent, Mrs. Lu said softly, "Didn't I receive a letter from Shandong two days ago, saying that Agui's daughter-in-law was ill. Master, if anyone asks, you can say that Agui went back to his hometown to visit relatives." Luo Shuigui My hometown is in Shandong, only a hundred miles away from Suzhou. Three years ago, Luo Shuigui saw that the capital was not peaceful, so he asked his wife to take the child back to his hometown. A few days ago, Luo Shuigui's son sent a message saying that his mother was seriously ill and asked him to go back.
Because the matter was not urgent, Mrs. Lu asked Luo Shuigui to go back to his hometown to visit his wife first, and then diverted to Shu. In this way, it is not noticeable.
Master Lu Er nodded and said: "Since you have already made up your mind, let's do it this way!" Everyone has selfish intentions, if the sons take refuge in Yun Qing and Han Yuxi, they will not only save their lives, but also have a good future. As for him and his wife, they were half buried in the soil. If Yan Wushuang wants to kill, let him do it!
After hearing this, Mrs. Lu was really relieved. If the husband is firmly opposed, he will definitely send someone to chase Luo Shuigui back. Now this performance also agrees with her approach.
In fact, Mrs. Lu would do this not only because she wanted to protect her son, but also because the big house really annoyed her. In order to protect the members of this big family, the husband endured humiliation and took refuge in Yan Wushuang, bearing the infamy. But the big house is not only ungrateful, but always thinks that her husband is in the high position today because of his uncle's honor. Not only did she find things for her husband every now and then, but she was also picky about her, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai when she didn't like her, and those who didn't know really thought that the husband and wife owed the big house. After a long time, no matter how warm my heart is, it becomes cold. Of course, what was cold was Master Lu Er's heart. Mrs. Lu Er had always disliked Da Fang, but she had been hiding her emotions before. (to be continued)
