Chen Caozhi shook his head and said: "It is really unexpected that the capital soldiers and the middle soldiers are so weak."
Xi Chao said: "Gong Huan must have just arrived in Gusu. Before the table was warmed, such a big event happened in the capital. Duke Huan must come to Jiankang again."
Chen Cao said: "Lu Song's plan is very sinister. If his plan to serve the deposed emperor and return the court succeeds, and Duke Huan raises an army to investigate, he can also take the deposed emperor hostage and flee to Xuzhou. In this way, Jiangdong will be in chaos, and we will be in great trouble."
Xi Chao said with a smile: "Things have changed, only success or failure is concerned. Now it seems that this bold and reckless Lu Song has succeeded Zizhong, and also given Duke Huan a reason to criticize Yu Xi, haha."
Chen Caozhi understands what Xi Chao means. Lu Shi, Lu Qin and his son cannot escape the blame this time. Lu Shi has lost power. There is hope for him to marry Wei Rui. However, there is a gap between Huan Wensu and Lu Shi. If he takes the opportunity to suppress the Lu family, it will definitely be impossible.
This was not what Chen Caozhi expected.
Chen Caozhi returned to Dongyuan by the Qinhuai River. Chen Shang, Xiaochan and others also stayed up all night, waiting for Chen Caozhi to come back. Ran Sheng, Su Qi and others had come back first, and they were all covered in blood. Su Qi suffered
Slight injuries. Ran Sheng's sergeants and Su's private soldiers were all injured. Fortunately, they were all slightly injured and they were bandaging each other.
Although Chen Caozhi did not participate in the killing of the enemy, he was still tainted with the smell of blood. He was very tired from running all night. Xiaochan prepared water for him to bathe. After bathing, he was combing his hair. Chestnut arrived and said that Xiaochan invited Chen Langjun to go.
There was something to discuss at home, so Chen Caozhi hurriedly drank a bowl of bean porridge, and then went with Banli to meet Lu Na at Xiaolu Shangshu Mansion in Hengtang——
Lu Na welcomed Chen Caozhi into the study, but saw that Lu Weirui was also here. Seeing Chen Caozhi, he saluted and said, "Chen Langjun, are you okay?" A pair of wonderful eyes focused on Chen Caozhi——
Chen Cao said: "I'm okay, it's Xiao Sheng and the others who are fighting."
Lu Na refused to be polite to Chen Caozhi and said: "Caozhi, it is inevitable that my second brother will be guilty of dereliction of duty this time. This is unthinkable. What is even more worrying is that my nephew Lu Qin will be severely punished."
Chen Cao said: "It is true that Lu Ziyu did not report what he knew, but it is not a serious crime."
Lu Na said worriedly: "I'm just afraid that he has something to do with Lu Song's rebellion. At the beginning of the year, you wrote a letter to remind me to warn Lu Qin not to associate with Lu Song, as it would lead to disaster in the future. I also reprimanded him, but not
Listen, I will be in trouble now."
Chen Cao was silent. Lu Qin had always been in close contact with Lu Song, Zhu Lingbao and others. When the deposed emperor Sima Yi was in power, he had great favor with Lu Qin. After Sima Yi was deposed, Lu Qin suddenly felt that he had lost power, so he secretly collaborated with Lu Qin to conspire.
It is also very possible to support Sima Yi's restoration. If true, it would be a death penalty and would have a very bad impact on the reputation of the entire Lu family——
Lu Na said: "Fuck, I know Lu Qin is not on good terms with you, but Lu Qin is Wei Rui's cousin and a close relative by blood, and there is no deep grudge between Lu Qin and you. You are resourceful and resourceful.
Again, you have done a great job in escorting me last night. You have to try to excuse Lu Qin. I, the Lu family, cannot bear the crime of treason."
Chen Cao said: "Not to mention the grievances between Lu Qin and me, how can Cao Zhi forget Lu Qin's kindness to Cao Zhi? Cao Zhi is not a person who must be punished, but if Lu Qin really conspires with Lu Song, he will not be able to get away with it.
No matter what the relationship is, how can Fuzhou have the ability to cover up such a serious crime for him, and it’s not like Lu Qin can get away with it if he refuses to admit it. Lu Song and many of his disciples are now in prison, and they will confess."
Lu Na knew that what Chen Caozhi said was true, and he sighed repeatedly, feeling worried.
Chen Caozhi asked: "Lu Shijun, what does the mainland minister think of this matter?"
Lu Na said: "My brother is writing a petition to apologize for his dismissal."
Chen Cao thought in his heart: "When Huan Wen comes to Jiankang to deal with Lu Song's entry into the palace, I am afraid that Lu Shi will not be able to resolve the matter simply by dismissing him." He said: "Lu Shijun, the matter has come to this, it is useless to worry too much. Cao Cao
I will do my best to excuse Lu Qiao and never want to see the Lu family decline because of this incident."
When Chen Caozhi was talking to Lu Na, Lu Weirui sat quietly aside, her beautiful eyes filled with sorrow. She could bear the heavy pressure of her family and would not marry Chen Caozhi, but the price of marrying Chen Caozhi was the decline of the Lu family.
