Bastard’s Resurgence

Although Lu Zheng was a man for two generations, he had never experienced fighting and killing. He was very nervous when he saw blood for the first time today.

From ancient times to the present, the world we live in has changed dramatically, but from the root, it is still the weak and the strong. This has never changed.

Lu Zheng has a particularly deep understanding of this, so at this moment, his heart is as hard as iron. The Gu family dares to be so arrogant, but it is bullying Lu Zheng's young and weak Lu family.

The Gu family is so good, why didn't they do anything to the people of the Qin Palace? Didn't you see them do something to the Ruan family? In the face of power, the Gu family is as exhausted as a dog in the family.

However, within the Jiangnan Power Clan, they boasted that they were powerful and stubborn. Lu Zheng was really disgusted with this. This time he vowed to make the Gu family pay a painful price to let them know that Lu Zheng is definitely not a soft persimmon.

At this time, the official road of the Qinhuai River was almost completely blocked. Behind the hustle and bustle and crowding was chaos. This was all planned by Lu Zheng. The more chaotic the scene, the more conducive to Lu Zheng's operation.

In fact, Lu Zheng’s plan is quite simple. In summary, it is to use static braking to lure the enemy deeper. The boy scatters all of his subordinates and pays close attention to Gu’s movements. As long as Gu’s family takes action, he will be able to show his feet. Find a hiding place for the hidden forces of the Gu family.

The Gu family secretly raised the dead and private soldiers. They needed a place to hide after all, but when they found where they were hiding, Lu Zheng arranged for the Nanfu Army Thunder Operation to inflict heavy damage on the Gu family.

Once Gu's family is hit hard, it will be messed up, and if they are messed up, the boy can seize the opportunity to pick out their most hidden forces a little bit.

In comparison, although the hidden forces under Lu Zheng's hands are not as powerful as the Gu family, they are better hidden, and Gu family never dreamed that Lu Zheng was in control of a force.

In addition, Liuhe is Lu Zheng's base camp, and the boy's operations in Liuhe can be said to be pervasive. The comprehensive strength of Lu Zheng cannot be compared with the Gu family, but he can concentrate his superior strength to defeat the Gu family.

The most important thing is the relationship between Lu Zheng and Cheng Hu. He has the equivalent of five thousand cavalry. No matter how many private soldiers in the Gu family, they can only be sheep in front of the cavalry of the Nanfu Army.

Besides, the fact that the Gu family was sneaking and furtively raising dead soldiers and private soldiers could not be put on the table at all. Once exposed, their entire family was facing annihilation. Therefore, they did not dare to wrestle with Lu Zheng in a big way. Against this background, Lu Zheng can be said to act with confidence.

"Start the boat, go to Jiangning!" Lu Zheng said coldly, and the boat opened its sails, speeding up suddenly, and heading straight for Jiangning...

...

In Jiangning, there was heavy fog in the early morning. The big ship from Yangzhou entered the inland river of Jiangning along the canal and headed straight to the ship dock where the Lu family of Jiangning was located.

Zhang Chengxi led the Zhang family to Jiangning to celebrate the birthday of the old man. It was supposed to arrive a day earlier, but the canal was jammed along the way, and they heard the bad news from the Lu family halfway through, saying that Lu Jun had died in the Qinhuai River. The Zhang family was extremely shocked.

A happy event was so overcast that the atmosphere on the big ship became extremely depressing.

"Finally here!" Zhang Chengxi sighed slowly, and the Lu family's house could be clearly seen in the distance.

The Zhang family is one of the four great families in Jiangnan. Looking at Yangzhou, it is indeed a big family of first-class one, but when he went to Jinling, Zhang Chengxi looked at the Lu family's mansion and felt a little embarrassed.

After all, the Zhang family is the home of pure merchants, and Zhang Chengxi is nothing more than a small county magistrate at the moment. On the Lu family's side, Lu Shanchang is the third-ranking servant. Zhang Chengxi’s brother-in-law, Lu Qian, is also the deputy envoy of the five-tier political system, and the Zhang family simply cannot compare!

Behind Zhang Chengxi, Zhang Jing quietly walked over and said: "Jinling really deserves its reputation, and the weather is much bigger than Yangzhou!"

Zhang Chengxi frowned and said coldly: "Brother Jing, I warn you, don't commit crimes in Jinling. Auntie’s kid just happened, and there must be some chaos in the house, which made your aunt unhappy. Looking back, I can Spare you?"

He paused, and then said: "Turn around and tell Sister Hua, let her be smarter, and persuade auntie that she is so good at the Zhang family. If you can play a role in the Lu family, your aunt may not be able to. Feel better!"

Zhang Jing respectfully said that he didn't think it was true. Lu Jun died in Liuhe. It is said that Lu Zheng also lived in Liuhe. Zhang Jing felt that Lu Jun must have harmed Lu Zheng and failed. On the contrary, he suffered and died.

This kind of thing did not happen in Yangzhou. Lu Zheng was so weak in Yangzhou at that time. Now he is in Jinling with Nie Yong as his backer. It is said that his business is getting bigger and bigger. Under the circumstances, who wants to provoke him again, wouldn't it be death?

Of course, these thoughts can only be hidden in Zhang Jing's heart. After all, he and Lu Jun are cousins ​​in terms of blood relationship, and they have no blood relationship with Lu Zheng. But in fact, he and Lu Zheng are of course a lot closer...

As the boat docked slowly, Zhang Chengxi told everyone not to be crowded and get off the boat slowly. This time there were a lot of people from Zhang's family, the master had four or five, plus a group of servants and maids, the Hao Hao Tangtang was nearly a hundred people in size.

Speaking of it, it has been a long time since the Zhang family came to the Lu family to celebrate birthdays on such a large scale. Since last year, the Jiangnan power sect has shown signs of recovery. This time the Lu family took the initiative to organize the birthday banquet. Naturally, the Zhang family could not fall behind. The selection is still on the scale, and they are all pompous!

It's just that they never expected to hear the bad news of Lu Jun's death halfway through, and they encountered the canal blockage again, which was delayed for a day. At this time, they rushed over, and they didn't know if they could make it to the old man's birthday banquet!

On the dock, the Lu family’s steward had been waiting for a long time. It was Lu Qian’s confidant Hong Shen who was in charge of welcoming guests. Hong Shen and the Zhang family were also very familiar with each other. After the two parties met the ceremony, Zhang Chengxi said:

"The old man's birthday banquet can begin?"

"Zhang Erye, you haven't arrived, where can the birthday banquet begin? Don't worry, everyone is waiting for you!" Hong Shen said very politely, giving Zhang Chengxi a lot of face.

Zhang Chengxi was very helpful, and said in a low voice, "How about Auntie?"

"Hey..." Hong Shen's face turned dark immediately, and he shook his head slightly. At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Auntie has only Brother Jun and his only son. Brother Jun has died early, she must be intestines. If you are stained with ashes, you have to look for life and death!

We must not let our ancestors know about this, or the ancestors will lose their life. Today, when we met my aunt, no one is allowed to mention Brother Jun’s affairs. Everyone is happy to celebrate. We are all the nephews of Auntie’s family. We don’t think of aunt, who is thinking of her old man? "

Hong Shen froze for a moment, then fixed his eyes to see that it was the second grandmother of the Zhang family who was talking. The second grandmother Hua is well-known and capable in the Zhang family. In the Zhang family, even her ancestors served her. In the inner house, she is the master!

Hong Shen glanced at Hua Hanyun, only to think that this woman was born beautifully, like a concubine and fairy, and the man couldn't help shivering when he glanced at it.

Hong Shen didn't dare to look more at all, and hurriedly said: "The mistress's grief can only be stopped if the mistress comes over. If the wife is really good, my servants in the Lu family will remember the merits of the mistress!"

When Hong Shen said this, the carriage and sedan were ready. The men took the carriage and the women took the sedan. The sedan was all in a red sedan, and eight people carried it. The carriage was a lacquered carriage. In addition, there were a few more in front. Ten men holding a guard of honor went straight to Lu's house from the dock in such a grand manner. The show was amazing.

Along the way, the Zhang family’s team also encountered several other people, including the Ruan family who rushed over from Yingtian. Their team was larger than Zhang’s side. The gong and drum ceremonial guard in front of the big sedan chair was the second-rank official. In the posture of traveling, Ruan Jingnian, who wanted to come to the Ruan family, came in person.

When I arrived at the main entrance of the Lu family, I ran into the Gu family's team. The Gu family was also a second-rank official travel style, but the number of people was larger, and the honor guard was more luxurious.

The birthday gifts of Gu’s family are carried by hundreds of people. There are all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, and all kinds of treasures. The most eye-catching is a mountain carved out of a huge Shoushan stone. The mountain is depicted with a big "Shou" character. It can be described as a great aura.

The distinguished guests came to the door, although it was said that they were treated like guests, but in terms of momentum, the Zhang family was already weakened by more than one. There was a crowd at the door welcoming guests, and the Zhang family was naturally squeezed to the back.

According to the rules of birthday celebrations, the female relatives do not need to go through the front door, the sedan chair bypassed the front door and entered the back house through the back door, but the men like Zhang Chengxi had to take the birthday gift from the front door.

Looking at the hustle and bustle at the entrance of Lu's house, Zhang Jing said: "Jinling is really no better than our Yangzhou. Tsk, tusk, this is the first time I have seen you in this pomp!

Look at the host welcoming guests at the door, the one wearing the red robe must be the old man of the Lu family. Undoubtedly, he is a third-class member, so you can’t tell at all! "

"Second brother, why didn't you see Brother Zheng?" Zhang's servant asked.

Zhang Jing was stunned for a moment, and for a while, he didn't know how to answer. In the hearts of Zhang's family, it was Lu Zheng who impressed the Lu family the most.

Under normal circumstances, as Lu Zheng, he should be qualified to stand outside to welcome guests. However, there were people in the host family of Yingbin for three generations, but Lu Zheng was not seen.

Zhang Chengxi snorted coldly, then turned his head and said, "Don't talk any more, and if you talk nonsense, be careful to cut your tongues!"

Zhang Chengxi said that everyone was silent, but Zhang Haoran was hiding behind the crowd. Seeing his appearance, he was much more mature than before. From the moment he entered Jinling, he remained silent. At this time, his brows couldn't help. Picked up slightly and said, "Lu Zheng is just a **** in the Lu family. What qualifications does it have to welcome guests on behalf of the Lu family?"
