There was still class during the day, and when Sun Wu was catching up on sleep in class, thinking of what happened last night, he always felt something was wrong.

If the thief's target was indeed himself, how did he know that he would be in the backyard of the Lu family.

But besides myself, who else could it be?

Lu Ji?What kind of enemies can this harmless child provoke?

Or Lu Xun?

...Recently there have been gossip that he is recruiting soldiers, and this move may have offended anyone.Or maybe someone else remembered his previous life, hated his previous achievements, and wanted to kill him before he made a fortune—in short, his situation didn't seem to be safe.

If the target is herself, she will make the other party lose everything if she is on guard.However, at Lu Xun's current age, if someone really killed him, it would be difficult to resist.

Thinking of this, she tilted her head and looked at Lu Xun.The latter was calm, on the surface he was listening to a class, but on the desk were irrelevant books.

His eyes flicked across his face, and the memory of being shot to death by an arrow flooded his mind like a dark cloud.Sun Wu then remembered the cause and effect of that incident, and the follow-up that she hadn't had time to recall. Gradually, anger, pity, guilt... Various emotions were woven into a dense web, making her breathless.

During the day, my heart was full of mixed feelings, and I still couldn't feel at ease when I returned home at night, so Sun Wu discussed with Sun Shangxiang: "Although we haven't received the invitation, Lu Ji told me that we can go directly if we want to go to the banquet. Otherwise, you Come with me to Lu's house for a banquet tomorrow."

Sun Shangxiang was dubious, "I saw that you dozed off all day long and never talked to Lu Gongji. Could it be that you want to eat fish and go crazy, and say these words to deceive me. I won't go. It would be embarrassing to be kicked out."

"I have such a relationship with Lu Ji, what are you afraid of." Sun Wu continued to persuade her, "He is also the elder of the Lu family and the head of the family, so naturally he will not let others drive us out."

Xu Shi also coveted perch, but Sun Shangxiang couldn't stand the persuasion, and finally complied.After answering, she turned to Han Wei and asked, "Wei Wei, are you going?"

Han Wei originally sat on the edge without saying a word, just listening to them obediently.When asked like this, he nodded hesitantly.

Sun Wu didn't expect Han Wei to be this kid. Although this child lived with them, he never spoke much and had a low sense of presence.Sun Wu has no interest in taking care of children, and often neglects his duties as an elder.She doesn't need to persuade her, it's fine if Han Wei is willing to go out.

So, in the evening of the next day, before the lanterns were lit, Sun Wu led them to Lu's house.

Although the current layout of the Lu family is the same, it is neater than in memory.The broken windows and doors have been repaired, the weeds in the courtyard have been uprooted, and the moss by the well has disappeared, making the whole look brand new.

The purpose of the Lu family's grand banquet is actually very clear—the half of the Lu family who died when Lu Kang was alive cast a shadow on the Lu family's ancestral house for too long.Remove the old and welcome the new, until now, the imprint of the previous generation of Lu family members has finally been erased, and Lu Xun and Lu Ji stood at the center of the stage.

The two new generations of the Lu family were preparing to welcome the guests. When they saw Sun Wu and the others, Lu Ji smiled naturally, while Lu Xun was extremely indifferent.

With a hot face and a cold butt, Sun Wu felt upset, so he raised his eyebrows and said to Lu Xun, "You don't welcome me, and you don't have to write it on your face."

Lu Xun didn't have a good temper either, "You're thinking simply, thinking that you're just here to add a few cases. But let's not talk about the night before..." He was halfway through, when suddenly a guest came, and he left a sentence, "I'll see you when I'm free." Let me tell you," and went to meet the guests together with Lu Ji.

The servants neatly added three tables in the main hall, ushered the guests in, and poured tea for them.

As expected, the Lu family is a big tree with deep roots. Seeing the twilight getting darker, there are more and more guests.They saluted each other and reminisced about the old days, and the front yard was crowded with people.

I don't know if the enemy will take advantage of the busy Lu family to strike again, Sun Wu secretly inspected them one by one, but he didn't notice anything unusual.

Sun Shangxiang glanced at her, a little curious, "I see that although Lu Gongji is standing in the crowd, why does he always act like he doesn't care about others?"

This is not the first time Sun Wu has seen this kind of scene, and he can tell the reason almost without thinking, "He is afraid of losing his seniority, so he doesn't pay much attention to children who are about the same age as him. Older people with beards don't like to be with them." This little brat calls him a brother. Sensitive and arrogant, he deserves to be alone forever."

After finishing speaking, she glanced back at Lu Ji, only to see that his brows were slightly frowned, and he didn't know where to focus his eyes.

I don't know if it's because he experienced too many blows during his growth period. Although his intelligence was not affected, he couldn't concentrate.

Sun Wu thought for a while, then turned around and said to Sun Shangxiang: "It's all like this, I don't think there is any need to worry about the defense between men and women. In terms of seniority, we are considered to be of the same generation as Lu Ji, or you go talk to him?"

Sun Shangxiang shook her head, "First of all, he may not accept my love. Secondly, you have such a close relationship with him, why did you ask me to go if you didn't talk to him?"

Sun Wu was still waiting for the follow-up of Lu Xun's words, afraid that he would be lost if he wandered around, so seeing that Sun Shangxiang couldn't be persuaded, he had to say: "If you don't go, don't go, just don't sit still later, run away." Go out and play around, it's not as safe as it looks..."

Sun Shangxiang's expression was indifferent, as if he didn't care. Just as Sun Wu was about to continue talking, he suddenly noticed that Lu Xun was winking at him not far away. It seemed that he finally had time to talk to him about something serious.

Not caring about anything else, Sun Wu hurriedly got up and followed.

When we arrived at the side hall, and retreated from the servants, Lu Xun said, "There is something that I should discuss with you..."

After only one sentence, his eyes suddenly hesitated, and he added an explanation: "You may think that I have hatred for your brother, and you think that I am just an alarmist. But one thing is that A Ji believes in you, and I have no malice towards you. Two Then I..."

Sun Wu interrupted him, "I know your Lu family's style, so you don't need to explain to me, I will believe whatever you say."

Lu Xun was a little surprised by Sun Wu's cooperative attitude, and his tone became gentle, "I felt strange about what happened the night before, so I went to the government office when I had time in the morning."

"It should be." Sun Wu nodded and said, "Zhu Zhi is the agent of Wu County affairs. Although there is no official document, he should be responsible for any accidents in the city."

"But when I went, he was not in the government office. So I went to the big camp outside the city, and there were only a few guards left inside. I asked someone to find out the news, saying that it was your brother who sent a letter to Zhu Junli, asking him to bring Soldiers go to Yangxian to sweep away the mountains." Lu Xun said again.

Sun Wu finally understood what was going on with his previous foreshadowing - even though he was a child of a family, he was still a white dress, and he should not have been able to inquire about these military secrets in the first place.

However, Sun Wu trusted him not only because he knew the upright family style of the Lu family, but also because he was familiar with his character and methods.

His news should not be wrong, such an accident has never happened in any previous life, Sun Wu couldn't help frowning, "How long will Zhu Zhi go this time? Most of the mountains are lurking in the mountains, and the battles are so roundabout. He intends to fight for a long time." ?”

"Judging from the information we have obtained, he should be back within ten days—but this matter is still very strange." Lu Xun looked at her solemnly, "Since Yan Baihu's power was wiped out, the surrounding area has been peaceful. Maybe he I thought there would be no trouble, so I took the order without thinking too much, and led the troops. But as soon as he left, well-armed thieves appeared in the city, it doesn't seem like a coincidence."

Things seem to be getting complicated.

Regardless of whether the enemy wanted to kill her or Lu Xun, sending away the army outside the city seemed too motivating.

But what else in the city can make others so vigilant?

Sun Wu lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then raised his head and asked Lu Xun: "Do you think it is possible that someone wants to destroy your Lu family?"

"You don't care about yourself, but you care about the Lu family..." Lu Xun said, but perhaps out of a cautious character, he still considered it carefully.

After a while, he continued: "Whether there is such a possibility or not, they will never succeed. First of all, the defenders of the city have not been sent away, and the defense of Wu County is also strong. We can survive ten days behind closed doors. Secondly, even if they break into the city, my Lu family is not defenseless..."

However, before he finished speaking, Gu Shao suddenly rushed in.

"Bo Yan! It's not good! Gong Ji was robbed!"
