Chapter 168

Cleanse Koto

The Sun family went into exile overseas, and the number of civil servants and generals accompanying them was actually not as many as initially thought.

The list in Liu Xuan's hand recorded in detail who followed Sun Quan into exile overseas.

In addition to his younger brothers and sisters, the leaders are mainly two veterans, Cheng Pu and Huang Gai, and then Zhou Yu. This person is Sun Ce's sworn brother. He has been helping Sun Ce with all his strength since he started his army. Now it is impossible for him to be separated from the Sun family.

It's coming.

Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong were considered the leaders of the civil servants, and they were also the only civil servants left with Sun Quan.

When the Sun family governed Yangzhou, most of the civil servants they used were descendants of local wealthy families, while the military commanders were the talents they discovered. This led to the fact that when Sun Quan went into exile overseas, the military commanders he was willing to follow were basically the ones he wanted to follow.

Including Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai, Ding Feng, Lu Meng, Pan Zhang, Ling Cao and others basically followed Sun Quan overseas with their families. However, local nobles such as Gu Yong did not go with them, but stayed behind, thinking that the imperial court would not

What will you do with them?

Looking at the list in his hand and the handsome young man in front of him, Liu Xuan never made any comment. The strange feeling lasted for a long time. It was not until sweat stains appeared on the forehead of the young man in front of him that Liu Xuan said: "

Boyan, do you have any comments on the people on this list?"

The young man in front of him is none other than Lu Xun and Lu Boyan, the current head of the Lu family in Jiangdong.

When Sun Ce took control of Jiangdong, the local gentry and wealthy families were extremely unfavorable to him. They even disobeyed many of the government orders. In a rage, Sun Ce directly attacked the Lu family and killed almost everyone in the Lu family, leaving only a group of old, weak, women and children.

.

In terms of the extent of their embarrassment, the Lu family could not even find a person who could make the decision at that time, so they had no choice but to let Lu Xun, who was not yet an adult, perform the coronation ceremony in advance and then take over the leadership of the Lu family.

It was precisely because of Sun Ce's thunderous methods that Jiangdong's soldiers knew that this little overlord was not an easy character to deal with, and this allowed Sun Ce to take Jiangdong into his hands in a short period of time.

Coupled with a series of subsequent methods, he slowly attracted several families to his side, and the Sun family's power to rule Jiangdong was truly formed.

At this time, even if the Lu family was dissatisfied with Sun Ce, they could only choose to stay under Sun Ce's account. Of course, Liu Xuan gave the Lu family a new choice, to be an undercover agent for the imperial court.

The young Lu Xun accepted the imperial court's secret conquest despite the pressure from his family, and subsequent events seemed to prove that Lu Xun's choice was not wrong.

What shocked Lu Xun even more was that Tianzi had already united with Yu Ji, and the Sun family, which had always thought that Yu Ji was Jiangdong's biggest support, had no idea about this. Under such circumstances, Lu Xun would still think that the Sun family had a future.

It's just that my brain is broken.

"Apart from Zhou Yu, the one who deserves the most attention is Lu Su and Lu Zijing!"

Lu Su!

If we want to talk about Liu Xuan's impression of Soochow in his previous life, it was the four governors.

Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Lu Meng and Lu Xun!

All of them are talented in both civil and military affairs and can be commanders of large armies.

I originally thought that by driving the Sun family away early, Lu Su would not fall into the hands of the Sun family. What I didn't expect was that Zhou Yu relied on his friendship with Lu Su to persuade Lu Su to spend all his wealth to help Sun Quan go into exile overseas -

- Most of the food and other materials needed for the Sun family's escape this time were provided by Lu Su.

"What a pity..."

This can be regarded as a talent, but now that Lu Xun has been recruited, Liu Xuan is already very satisfied! As for Lu Meng? This kid hasn't figured it out yet!

As for Lu Xun's mention of Lu Su, it was because this person was not well-known before. Unlike the other people on the list, he was more or less in the court's sight. Lu Su was only well-known locally before, and he was not there anymore.

It is impossible for the court to notice this person when he is doing things under the Sun family's tent.

Lu Xun also used this to tell the emperor that Lu Su was also a great talent. But he didn't know who the great talent was these days. Liu Xuan knew it all.

"With Zhou Yu and Lu Su by his side, as well as many generals and soldiers, the Sun family may really be able to lay a foundation overseas!"

Although Lu Xun is not reused under the Sun family, the Lu family is one of the four major families in Jiangdong and has many connections with other families. Basically, Jiangdong cannot hide anything, so the map...

Lu Xun did know a little bit about it.

What's more, Yu Ji has contact with him, and Lu Xun naturally knows it clearly.

"Yu Wei Gu Lu..."

Liu Xuan muttered something, which frightened Lu Xun and made him sweat even more on his forehead.

Talking about the four major families for no reason is definitely not a good thing for Lu Xun. When Sun Ce attacked the Lu family, wasn't it because the four major families were too famous?

However, Liu Xuan didn't want to do anything to the Lu family. Sun Ce also helped Liu Xuan more or less. There was really nothing he disliked about the severely weakened Lu family, but Liu Xuan was not prepared for the remaining three families.

Give them some good fruit to eat.

"Except for the Lu family, these three families should be dealt with. It looks annoying!"

This was not said to Lu Xun, but to Jia Xu who was sitting beside him. As a staff doctor, Jia Xu should not be here to accompany the emperor to summon anyone, but Liu Xuan made an exception and let him be there.

Accompanying him is to ask him to do these things.

After hearing the emperor's words, Jia Xu's expression remained unchanged, as if the order was just for him to go down and order the cook to kill a chicken and stew a bowl of soup for him to drink, but Lu Xun on the side was not so relaxed - casually, Jiangdong Si

The big family was about to become a thing of the past. Maybe he should say something? But Lu Xun knew that if he really spoke, the Lu family would probably not be spared either, so he smartly kept his mouth shut and didn't say a word.

But Liu Xuan's words did not stop there: "There are also four major families in Wu County and four surnames in Kuaiji. Everything that needs to be dealt with has been dealt with!"

Lu Xun now felt a cold feeling on his back. It was clearly winter at this time, but his clothes were completely soaked with sweat. Now he was extremely lucky that he chose to accept it when the imperial court came to lobby the Lu family, otherwise... there would be no such thing in this world.

There is the presence of the Lu family in Wu County.

Now that the order has been given, the next step is to follow it.

If it were in the court, there would inevitably be a dispute, but in this military camp, and the accompanying civilian officials were all Liu Xuan's close confidants, so no one would want to disobey the emperor's order.

Because of this, in the winter of the first year of the Han Dynasty, the entire Jiangdong was shrouded in gloom and mist, and the bloody atmosphere almost reached the sky. The local wealthy families who originally worked under the Sun family were massacred within a month.

It was all clean and there was almost no one left.

Of course, it is inevitable that one or two fish will slip through the net, but the influence of these families in the local area will undoubtedly be completely destroyed.

The news came back to Luoyang, and the court was shocked. The big bosses were speechless for a while after learning what the emperor had done in Jiangdong. They wanted to say something but didn't know how to say it. In the end, they could only sigh and remain silent.

.

After being an official under Liu Xuan for so long, these people know the emperor's temper. Naturally, no one will play any trick of quitting office. If they really can't continue, they should have stopped a few years ago. Why bother?

Wait until now?

What's more, Liu Xuan's actions were not without reason - to be a thief and to commit rebellion!

In the current dynasty, this was a major crime against the nine tribes, so it was not a random massacre, but it was too cruel because some of the Jiangdong nobles were almost wiped out because they were so involved.

Many literati, who were displeased with the emperor, compared this move to the Qin Dynasty's burning of books and humiliation of Confucians. Of course, some said that the dynasty was even more brutal than it was back then, but it was also supported by some literati - ordinary people on the contrary.

Ignoring these, even in their eyes, those guys who helped the rebels and the emperor were simply seeking their own death. There was nothing to be said for the emperor to kill their whole family, it was a matter of course.

If Liu Xuan heard these words, he would immediately slap this person and shout: "My confidant!"

In his opinion, this is the case - if you dare to go against me, why can't I kill you? Think that you are safe because of your fame and status? Think that your network of connections is all over Jiangdong, and even if the Sun family loses, the court will still have to deal with you.

Politely?

"Bah, what a beautiful idea, kill as many as you can!"

Anyway, now the court has no shortage of talents, especially those guys in Jingzhou who have already relented, including Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang and other outstanding figures have begun to appear in the court's sight, and even some officials from Jingzhou have begun to recommend these people to the court -

—In addition to these two, there are also Shi Tao, Shi Guangyuan, Meng Jian, Meng Gongwei, etc.

If this is not enough, then we have to add Wei Yan, Wenpin and others. This time we went south, we can say that we have attracted enough talents, and this does not include Yizhou!

Judging from the news sent back by Guan Yu, the fall of Tianshi Dao happened in the past few days. Guan Yu took the absolute initiative from the beginning, and Liu Zhang very conspicuously directly expressed his intention to submit to the imperial court and was willing to let his troops

Accepting Guan Yu's command, Tianshi Dao lost its last chance of winning: it was no longer feasible to deal with Liu Zhang in the shortest time, especially when there was basically no threat from Jiangdong, and troops had already sent to Yizhou to support Liu Zhang.

.

The only suspense is whether Xu Shu has successfully sneaked into Tianshi Dao, but there is no time to wait for Xu Shu. Anyway, as long as Zhang Lu doesn't die, he can be found anyway. There is no need to delay the opportunity because of Xu Shu.

In short, Liu Xuan now has civil servants and fierce generals under his command, and just a few nobles from Jiangdong. If they die, they will die!

And after cleaning up Jiangdong, he can also develop this area properly. In particular, problems such as Shanyue that have been troubled for a long time must be solved cleanly and thoroughly.

In his heart, he sketched out what he should do next. In the first year of the Han Dynasty, the smell of blood and the shouts of killing passed away, and Liu Xuan also began to consider returning to Luoyang to deal with the remaining trivial matters.

As for Sun Quan?

Hope you can reach Australia smoothly!
