Please ask me to be the emperor

The Lu family is from Xindi, Guo State. "Zuo Zhuan" and "Guoyu" once recorded: "A god came to Xin" and "lived in Xin in June", which means this is this place.

Lu's place sounds like a person's surname, but it is actually the name of a county. It is said that it got its name from the Lu family in the pre-Qin Dynasty. In the fourth year of Yuanding reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Lu family began to establish county governance, which was passed down to the Ming Dynasty. The general scope was Lushi County and Luanchuan County in later generations.

After crossing the Yellow River a few days ago, other rebel leaders, including the "King of Troubled Times", parted ways with Zhang Shun.

Zhang Shun's generals couldn't bear it anymore and couldn't help but cursed these people as "ungrateful", but Zhang Shun stopped him.

This is not because Zhang Shunhan has cultivated himself well, but since he was squeezed out by "Chuang King" and others last time, he has made up his mind to "consolidate his roots" and prepares to find a place as a foundation to build a stronger direct team.

Zhang Shun was originally an engineer in his previous life, and he was already accustomed to the behavior of subcontracting and subcontracting at different levels. Even if you become a rebel in this life, you will inevitably bring with you the habits of your previous life.

It was only in the end that Zhang Shun realized that with such serious constraints and getting half the result with half the effort, he might as well set up his own "own company" with "pentathlon" and act without looking at other people's eyes.

So the rebel army crossed the Yellow River and captured Mianchi on the opposite side of the Yellow River, and then divided their forces. "King Chuang" led other rebels to Yiyang and Yiyang, while Zhang Shun led the rebels to Yongning and Lu.

There are also some small thoughts of other rebels: after all, Zhang Shun led all the rebels to escape from death. Firstly, he was so kind that he could not repay him. Secondly, he highlighted the "miracle of the ice bridge" and the hearts of his soldiers turned to Shun. These people are restless and have no choice but to hide if they can't be offended, which is better than being subordinate to others.

Judging from the marching routes of both sides, the marching route of the "Chuang King" and other rebel armies was closer to Luoyang City, and was quite prosperous and prosperous along the way; while Zhang Shun's marching route was closer to the nearby mountainous areas, and was more tortuous and impoverished along the way.

This choice is a reflection of the instinctive behavior of both parties: the "Chuang King" and other rebels are short of supplies, and their first priority is to plunder and replenish food and grass. Zhang Shun wanted to find a foothold, preferring a place with deep mountains and ravines that was easy to defend.

On the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, the rebels suddenly arrived at Lu's city. They only fired a burst of artillery, smashed the gate of Lu's city, and captured Lu's county seat.

The magistrate of Lushi County, whose surname is Bai, can be regarded as a well-behaved official. When he sees thieves breaking through the city, he will kill himself.

The three major surnames in the city, Wang, Li and Lu, saw this and quickly stopped Magistrate Bai, and said to him: "As an official of the imperial court, Magistrate Bai has the responsibility to protect the land. If the city is destroyed, he will die, and his righteousness will not be humiliated. He is a man, but we admire him very much."

"It's just that if you die, it will be over once and for all. Then who will the thief's anger be vented on? In this case, why don't County Magistrate Bai do it to the end and send the Buddha to the west? He is going to die anyway, so why not let the thief get out? You have a bad mouth. In this way, you will not only preserve your reputation as a martyr, but also preserve the people of Hecheng, why not do it?" Magistrate Bai was very angry when he heard this.

Seeing this, the three surnames saved a lot of effort and just tied up County Magistrate Bai and took him to see Zhang Shun who had just entered the county.

Zhang Shun led the generals into the county government office in a big way. As soon as they sat down, someone came to report: "The county magistrate here has been kidnapped by a big man in the city and taken into custody. Please ask the general to make a decision!"

When Zhang Shun heard this, he realized that they were really nowhere to be found, and it took no effort to get there, so he ordered people to bring them up.

There were three old men with the surnames Wang, Li, and Lu. One was stooped, one was dim-sighted, and one had some deafness.

Of course, Zhang Shun knew that these three surnames were sending "death ghosts". He didn't bother to tell who was whose family, and just asked directly: "What's going on?"

Before the other three people had time to answer, County Magistrate Bai had already woken up. He raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Shun in front of him, and then he saw that he was covered in strips, and he didn't know what was going on.

He opened his mouth and cursed loudly: "Three surnamed family slaves, how dare thieves listen? Now that you have tied me up and offered me to the thieves, how did you know that the thieves will let you go?"

"Those monkeys dare to wear monkeys and wear crowns! Please kill me quickly and don't hurt the people in my city!"

Zhang Shun was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but said happily: "Wukong, how did you offend this guy, how could he insult you?"

Wukong couldn't help but was stunned, and said with a smile: "Master is really an uneducated person. A person with thick arms has long arms. This is just calling you a gibbon monkey. How can you involve me, grandson?"

Zhang Shun didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this. He was a talented man: he was not good at guarding the city and managing troops, but he was very good at scolding people.

At first when he heard him scolding "house slaves with three surnames", he thought he was scolding Wei Congyi. After listening for a while, he realized that he was scolding three wealthy families named Wang, Li and Lu.

If it had been anyone else, this thief would have been shaved off. But now Zhang Shun is very interested in this place and has become a good guy.

He smiled and said: "You are also a brainless thing. If you and I were in different places, I would definitely say: Each one has his own master on the battlefield. How can a general kill a strong man for a minor offense? In this city, the king, I know all about the family property of the three surnames Li and Lu. But please let me lead the way, general, and kill all their clans. I will definitely dig three feet of ground for you and let you make a windfall!"

When the county magistrate Bai and the three surnames Wang, Li, and Lu heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other. After being stunned for a moment, the three old men hurriedly knelt down one after another and shouted: "We are willing to take refuge with the general. We have gold, silver and food. Please take back the order!"

Zhang Shun laughed when he heard this and did not answer. Instead, he asked County Magistrate Bai, "What does Magistrate Bai think of this plan?"

Magistrate Bai's face turned white and red for a while, and then he sighed and said: "I have lived half my life, but I have lived on a dog's belly. It's just that if I die, another person will die, so why bother affecting so many people!"

Hearing this, Zhang Shun stood up in surprise and said with a smile: "Good! Good man! What a county magistrate!"

County Magistrate Bai couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this, he just said that Zhang Shun was teasing him. It wasn't until he stared at Zhang Shun for a long time that he realized that it was really not a joke, then he pointed at the three old men kneeling in the hall and asked, "What about them?"

"I won't kill any of these three tribes!" Zhang Shun waved his hand and responded righteously: "As the saying goes, 'Thieves also have their own ways.' I was also born in poverty. I only ended up like this because I couldn't survive. What I admire most in my life are good and upright officials. Since you have interceded for them, I will put down my butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately, and will not commit such endless evils!"

Magistrate Bai was dumbfounded when he heard this. Originally, he wanted to say: Since the king really wanted to let Ben Zhixian go, why not root out the three wealthy families? Wouldn't it be better if you gain wealth and I gain fame?

But now, how could he dare to say this?
