The news that Gu Zhilun was convicted of 18 serious crimes was like a bomb, causing a stir in the Two Rivers and Liaodong.

Gu Zhilun came from Bingzhou to Bianzhou, but he could not even meet Lu Zheng. You should know that when he was in Bingzhou, he was a guardian of the Guanzhong and a first-rank official. When he arrived under the city of Bianzhou, his official position was already a ninth-rank county magistrate. Lu Zheng gave him an order every day to demote him to a first-rank official.

The Ministry of Justice and the Third Department of Bianzhou directly tried them. There were 18 crimes in total. Each of these 18 articles pointed to the current path that the powerful families liked. It is no exaggeration to say that Lu Zheng was using this method to warn all the powerful families to make everyone more peaceful. Lu Zheng really wanted to kill him!

The second question now is whether Gu Zhilun committed so many crimes. Will Lu Zheng kill him? This matter is particularly eye-catching.

In Shengjing, Liaodong, Gu Tiansheng and Gu Tianyang personally visited the door of the family to meet Lu Shanchang. After the two met, Gu Tiansheng said: "Brother Lu, this time Gu Zhilun committed such a serious crime. The reason is that our poor tutoring has led to a disaster!

We are all old, and the young people are not able to speak, so we can only come to visit Brother Lu today. We only have one thing to say about Gu Zhilun, that is, no matter what the prince deals with, our Gu family supports us. Our family has decided to expel this villain from the house and will not let him return to the ancestral hall from now on!"

Lu Shanchang frowned slightly, not surprised him with the attitude of the Gu family, but he thought that when Gu Zhilun was at its peak, the Gu family had been indulging in every possible way. Even when Gu Zhilun left Liaodong to Bingzhou, the Gu brothers came to let Lu Shanchang say a few words to help them stabilize the situation.

Now that time has passed, just less than a year has passed, the Gu family suddenly changed their faces. As the leader of the four great masters in Jiangnan, such a style of behavior will inevitably make people feel disgusted, which is a bit too much!

However, the Gu family's attitude is right, because this time Lu Zheng attacked Gu Zhilun to kill the chicken to warn the monkey. Although Gu Zhilun is going to be done, he can't just let go of this matter so gently. After touching Gu Zhilun, he will definitely touch other people, and some families will even suffer. And the family that is most likely to suffer is the Gu family. Lu Shanchang still does not want the Gu family to be destroyed, because for him, the four great men in Jiangnan are best, and all the families cannot be missed.

However, Lu Zheng’s major affairs cannot be destroyed. If the Gu family is really unfavorable to the overall situation and has to be eradicated, Lu Shanchang will never be ruthless.

"Old Gu, you and I are talking about this in Liaodong are just empty talk. The key is how to talk about it in Bianzhou? Is there anyone around the prince to show his attitude?" Lu Shanchang said.

Gu Tianyang said: "Brother Lu, you will definitely not neglect this. Several of the second generation of our Gu family's affairs went to Bianzhou immediately after hearing the news. At this time, he should have arrived in Bianzhou... I don't know if they can have the opportunity to meet the prince!"

Lu Shanchang said: "No matter whether we can see the prince or not, there is one thing I hope the Gu family can understand, that is, the four great masters in Jiangnan can rise, and it was the prince who gave him the opportunity! If we don't cherish this opportunity, the prince can take it back at any time. At that time, I'm afraid hehe, there are many things that are hard to say. I hope you can understand and understand and know it yourself!"

"Brother Lu, how can we not understand this step when you said it? If you don't understand it anymore, you will be pretending to be confused with it! Brother Lu Don't worry, as long as the prince gives an order, our Gu family will not refuse! Not only the Gu family, but also the four great masters in Jiangnan should set an example and abandon all kinds of bad habits among the powerful families, so as to make good efforts in the Lianghe River and Liaodong, and work together, so that our great prosperity can have a future!" Gu Tianyang said.

Gu Tiansheng continued: "Now the power and wealthy families are going wrong. Our great prosperity has not yet been unified. Many families only care about their own interests and usually compete in the court, secretly just for the enclosure and the growth of their families.

The foundation of the existence of the power family is to prosper with the country and lose with each loss. What is the need for the power family to exist if you lose this foundation? There is no need for the existence of the power family to exist at all! If we want to become the top power family, we should fully support the prince, take the prince as the foundation, and aim to unify the great prosperity as the goal."

The Gu brothers' statement was beyond Lu Shanchang's expectations. Seeing the two old guys making such vows and being passionate, Lu Shanchang couldn't help but sigh that if he had known today, why should he have been there?

After the Gu brothers left, Lu Shanchang paced back and forth at home alone, and couldn't calm down for a long time. In the end, he still wrote a letter to Lu Zheng. The content of the letter was very simple, that is, although the four powerful families in Jiangnan made mistakes, they were not unable to correct them. It was no big deal to know the mistakes and improve them.

Lu Shanchang also asked Lu Zheng how to correct the chronic diseases of powerful families from the root. These methods are naturally iron-blooded means and kindness and power. In addition, Lu Shanchang wrote a sentence at the end of the letter: "You will be punished by the Lord, and not punishing will not be enough to shock the villain!"

At this time in Bianzhou, Lu Zheng also received countless books. No matter which aspects these comments come from, whether they are the prime minister or the six ministers and nine ministers, more than 90% of the comments are to be killed by Gu Zhilun! The money falling from the tree is scattered, and killing Gu Zhilun can make many people feel at ease...

After receiving the letter from Lu Shanchang, Lu Zheng felt even more confused. He looked around and found that there was no one around him who could speak. Finally, he shut all the left and right away, paced around the yard alone, and walked to Liu Wan's yard without realizing it.

Liu Wan likes flowers and has a lot of flowers in her yard. In the past, the climate was very bad when she was in Liaodong, so Liu Wan's hobby could not be realized. Now, after reaching the Two Rivers, the climate is slightly better, and Liu Wan is busy with things every day.

The roses in the small yard are blooming very lushly, and the rose notes are trimmed very beautifully. Every day, several girls accompany him to serve these flowers and plants. When he saw Lu Zheng coming, Liu Wan exclaimed in surprise and said, "Prince, why didn't you send anyone to send me a message when you come here? Look at me..."

Lu Zheng laughed and said, "Don't panic, I'll come over and take a look. What's the point of making a fuss? Wouldn't you be there to accompany you when you are taking care of the flowers and plants?"

Liu Wan said: "Your Majesty, you have a lot of things to do every day. It's a job for idle people to do. How can you work for the prince?"

Liu Wan asked the maid to serve Lu Zheng, and she herself went out to pour tea for Lu Zheng herself after changing clothes. The maids were all away. The woman was smart and knew that Lu Zheng must have come over to talk to her alone at this time.

Then she drove away the others and accompanied Lu Zheng alone.

Lu Zheng said: "Liu Wan, do you still remember what happened in Yangzhou back then?"

Liu Wan was stunned for a moment, smiled at Lu Zheng, and said, "Why don't you remember? I remember every bit of Yangzhou. It's just that after many years, things have changed, and there are fewer old people in these years..."

Liu Wan was quite sad when she talked about this. You should know that when the Zhang family was destroyed, almost all the male members of the Zhang family were killed or exiled to the army, and it was rare to survive. Until now, the only one who was orthodox in the Zhang family was Zhang Haoran.

Zhang Haoran gave birth to five sons. Now his eldest son is in his early 10 years old. Every time the Zhang family adds a child, Liu Wan will ask someone to congratulate him! This alone shows how many disasters the Zhang family has encountered and how many hardships it has undergone.

Liu Wan's saying that things are different from people sounds very simple, but the meaning behind this sentence is very heavy and deep!

Lu Zheng took a sip of tea and said, "Gu Zhilun is not an old man from Yangzhou? Do you know this person?"

Liu Wan said: "I visited Boss Gu's bookstore frequently back then, and I recognize him too! So many years have passed, things have changed, and Boss Gu is not the owner of the bookstore that year! I heard that he has made a big mistake recently, so the prince wants to punish him?"

Lu Zheng said: "The punishment is certain. Now it is a matter of all parties. More than 90% of these books are going to kill him! Even the old man has sent a letter, asking me to kill Gu Zhilun. Only by killing Gu Zhilun can I kill the chicken to warn the monkey and shock the world!"

"Ah..." Liu Wan exclaimed, her face turned pale in an instant, and she said, "Kill? Prince, do you really want to kill Boss Gu?"

"I was also contradictory and hesitant, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while. Wouldn't I just come to chat with you?"

Liu Wan said: "How can I, a woman, understand the major affairs of my family and country? I'm afraid I can't help you, prince!"

Lu Zheng laughed and said, "You, why are you so nervous? I came to talk to you and didn't want you to help me. I just wanted to hear what you said about Gu Zhilun, why before that, Gu Zhilun could win over so many people and resources.

But once he arrived in Bianzhou and went to prison, he would immediately kill him with countless memorandums! Why is there such a big difference? How did this huge gap come about?"

Liu Wan said: "Although Gu Zhilun has risen and developed, his foundation is still shallow. He is the favorite minister around you, so naturally many people have cursed him! These instigations and curses are sometimes not kind-hearted. Their praise for Boss Gu is actually more often because they want to set up a mountain and use it to protect them from the wind and rain.

Although Boss Gu is a shrewd businessman, when it comes to being smart and far-reaching, how can he compare to those powerful families? So in the end he was used by others. Once he loses his value, everyone no longer regards him as a big tree. This big tree may become a thorn in others' side. It is better to die, so that everyone can feel at ease..."
