Cao Guan nodded, his eyes a little more appreciative.

Others don't believe Lu Chen, but he does.

Because Governor Xia's words before leaving had revealed the mystery.

"Uncle Cao is too polite. Actually, I didn't do anything." Lu Chen responded politely.

"Dad, don't you intend to express it?" Concubine Cao Xuan was a little dissatisfied.

"How do you express it? How about I betroth you to Lu Chen?" Cao Guan joked.

"ah?"

Chase Lu froze immediately.

"This...is this too sudden? I'm not even prepared yet!" Concubine Cao Xuan blushed and asked, "Have you chosen a date? When will you get married?"

"Hey! Are you taking it seriously? Don't be ashamed!" Cao Guan glared.

"You said it yourself, what does it have to do with me?" Concubine Cao Xuan raised her eyebrows.

"Okay, let's be serious."

Cao Guan slowly suppressed his smile: "Although we have temporarily overcome the difficulties today, the matter is far from over. With Shangguan Hong's temper, he will never give up."

"With the support of Governor Xia and the old leader, does Shangguan Hong still dare to mess around?" Concubine Cao Xuan raised her eyebrows lightly.

"Shangguan Hong may not dare to attack head-on, but he will definitely attack in secret."

Cao Guan looked serious: "The favor between Governor Xia and the old alliance leader has been repaid, and it is impossible for him to help us a second time, so now, we have to rely on ourselves."

"So, our Cao family will still be in trouble?" Concubine Cao Xuan thought thoughtfully.

"There will definitely be a lot of trouble, but the most critical thing right now is Lu Chen's safety."

Cao Guan turned to Lu Chen and reminded: "Shangguan Hong is extremely arrogant. Whether you are because of Shangguan Lingcai's death or because you provoke his majesty in public today, it is an unpardonable act, so you will be in danger next time. !�

"Thank you, Uncle Cao, for reminding me. I will pay attention." Lu Chen nodded.

Of course he knew that Shangguan Hong would take revenge.

But as long as Concubine Cao Xuan is safe, he has nothing to fear.

"In the recent period, I will send a group of secret guards to protect you, which should be able to help you solve some troubles." Cao Guandao.

"A group of secret guards? Dad, aren't those your personal guards?" Concubine Cao Xuan was quite surprised.

There are a total of six groups of Cao family secret guards.

The strongest group, with innate masters in it, is the Cao family's trump card.

It's just that on weekdays, a group is responsible for the safety of the clan leader and never takes action easily.

"I can't use it for the time being, so let a group protect Lu Chen." Cao Guandao.

"Uncle Cao, actually, I don't need anyone to protect me." Lu Chen tried to decline politely.

"There are always times when people relax. Having a team to protect you is an extra insurance, and it is also the heart of our Cao family. Don't refuse." Cao Guan was very serious. JrNovels.com
