Going north to serve the king was actually a bet by Lu Xiangsheng.

In the era when Wei Zhongxian was in great power, many officials who were unwilling to be eunuchs of the A-affiliated eunuchs either died tragically or were deposed as officials.

Lu Xiangsheng was irrelevant. He was a pragmatic official. He passed the Jinshi at the age of 22 and was assigned to the Ministry of Revenue to observe politics. He was not an internship. After the period of observation, he served as the head of the Ministry of Revenue of the Qing Literature Department. Later, he was promoted to Yuanwailang and then to the prefect of Daming Prefecture.

It took him five years to become a Jinshi and become a famous prefect, and almost 90% of officials could not reach in their lifetime.

In this regard, Lu Xiangsheng had the advantage of youth, who made him a 22-year-old Jinshi? In the Ming Dynasty, the average age for passing the Jinshi was 39.5 years old, almost forty years old.

Lu Xiangsheng saved most people half their life, after all, he was too young. However, the prefect is a fourth-rank official, and the Daming Mansion is still a watershed. From the prefect to the deputy provincial and ministerial level, this is a watershed. Almost 95% of the officials will be stuck in this level and will never be able to get through it.

Even if he has a good exam, he will be very immensely transferred from Daming Mansion to Guangping Mansion, Shunde Mansion, or Xi'an Mansion to serve as a prefect.

Unfortunately, this is not the result that Lu Xiangsheng wanted, he wanted to take a gamble.

The world's soldiers and horses will support the king, and the Ming Dynasty's 188 prefectures will probably not lead the troops and horses to support the king, and as long as he goes, he will definitely enter the vision of Emperor Chongzhen.

Looking at Liu Mingyu with aggressive eyes, Lu Xiangsheng felt a little empathetic.

Liu Ming met an unliterate person and didn't even participate in the boy exam. If he wanted to change his destiny, he could only fight to the best of his martial arts.

Lu Xiangsheng looked at Liu Mingyu and said, "Tell me what you think?"

Liu Mingyu didn't say anything, and his eyes looked at the followers beside Lu Xiangsheng: "If you don't have a secret, you will lose your ministers; if you don't have a secret, you will lose your official position!"

Lu Xiangsheng smiled and said, "You are interesting, you all retreat!"

"grown ups……"

"Get out!"

"yes!"

At this time, only Lu Xiangsheng and Liu Mingyu were left in Liu's house in Jiagou.

Liu Mingyu looked at Lu Xiangsheng and said, "Caomin wants to know how adults view the rules!"

"Rules? You don't want to follow the rules?"

"Since they do not follow the rules first, the Caomin naturally does not want to follow the rules they set!"

Liu Mingyu smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Lu, I believe he is clear that taxes are more difficult this year than they have been. The land in Damingfu is a fixed number, and it has neither increased nor decreased. Why is the taxes much less?"

"This is not your consideration, let's talk about the key points!"

"yes!"

"The grass people are ready to give their own ways to the other person!"

"Do you want to use the Zao Linhu?"

"That's right!"

Liu Mingyu bowed and said, "But there is no one in the hands of Caomin. He needs to borrow thirty good players from the adults. His skills must be agile, and it is best to be able to block ten!"

Lu Xiangsheng vaguely guessed what Liu Mingyu wanted to do.

Going north to serve the king was a gamble by Lu Xiangsheng. Whoever stops him is his enemy.

A gentleman can deceive him, and Lu Xiangsheng is a gentleman. Facts have proved that a gentleman cannot deal with scoundrels. If you want to deal with scoundrels, you have to become more scoundrels than them!

Coincidentally, Liu Mingyu was thick-skinned and had dark hands, and he was even more unscrupulous.

Under Liu Mingyu's conspiracy, Lu Xiangsheng "had a cold wind". He could not even get into the water and rice. He could only live in the Liu Family Courtyard outside Jiagou City.

Winter is short and the night is long, and it soon becomes dark.

In the south city of Daming Prefecture, in a house belonging to Liu Jinxian. Liu Mingyu woke up from his sleep. He put on a stabbing suit and stretched.

Liu Fugui bowed and said, "Young Master, everyone is here!"

"Walk!"

In the hall in the front yard, at this time, they either sit, stand, or lean against twenty or thirty people. Some of them are tall, some are short, and some are black, but everyone has a strong smell.

A young man in the lead saluted Liu Mingyu: "Young Master, we are ordered to report to you!"

"very good!"

Liu Mingyu slowly walked past these men in black uniforms, and suddenly, he reached out and hit a man.

The man did not move at all, his feet did not move, as if he was nailed to the ground.

Liu Mingyu smiled with satisfaction and said, "How did you practice it?"

The man who was beaten by the slap smiled silly: "There is a pond in our village that can ensure that the land in our village is constantly collected. Some people are jealous and often come to us to make trouble. There will be an armed fight every few days. If there are too many fights, we will naturally learn some skills!"

Before Lu Xiangsheng became the Daming Mansion, Daming Mansion was full of bandits. Not to mention not closing the door at night, even in broad daylight, ordinary people or caravans dared not travel alone.

Later, he gathered the young and strong men from Daming Prefecture and began to encircle and suppress these bandits. The money he captured was equally divided with the young and strong men. Over time, these young and strong men developed a lot of skills.

Liu Mingyu also understood that these people must be the foundation of Tianxiong Army in the future.

"Ahem..."

Liu Mingyu coughed and looked at everyone and said, "Do you know what you call to do?"

"have no idea!"

"Why is the New Year's Eve approaching? Because every Chinese New Year's Eve, the debts owed must be paid, and the latest one cannot exceed New Year's Eve. There is no need to pay the debt on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so the New Year's Eve is also called New Year's Eve."

Liu Mingyu said: "This year is approaching, and everyone has no surplus food. I will take you to make some money. They all say that the iron rooster is not a single penny. Now I want to pull out a few of their hairs! What I want to find you to do is very simple, just follow me and rob the rich and help the poor!"

When the young and strong people heard the four words "robbing the rich and helping the poor", they gasped, and this is the rhythm of robbing the family!

But, they like it!

"If you participate in the action, each person can get ten taels of silver afterwards, but..."

Liu Mingyu paused and said, "There is one thing you want to remember for me that we are seeking money but not killing our lives. We are not allowed to cause deaths, nor are we bullying the women and children in their families. If anyone dares to do anything, I am not a vegetarian!"

"Young Master, this is going to be beheaded, where is Lord Lu..."

"Mr. Lu doesn't know anything!"

Liu Mingyu said, "As long as you control your mouth, don't make a fortune, there is nothing wrong with it! Also, this batch of money is used by Lord Lu to recruit the rebel army of the king. All the gains will be handed over. No point should be given to you. If you dare to reach out to your hands, I will chop off your claws!"

The young and strong said they did not dare.
