Chapter: 2196
"We have to eat, and we also need to make a show, so we can't be upstaged by Shangguan Hong," Concubine Cao Xuan said.
"Wait, what's the matter with Guanhong?" Lu Chen was a little strange.
"It seems that you don't know yet. Tomorrow happens to be the day when Shangguan Hong and Cao Zhiyuan are engaged. They have already invited guests and prepared a grand banquet. Naturally, we must not show weakness." Concubine Cao Xuan's eyes sparkled.
Shangguan Hong stirred up dissension and tore the Cao family into pieces, which she has always been resentful about.
So she planned to take this opportunity to destroy the prestige of the Shangguan family.
"Oh? Shangguan Hong is engaged to Cao Zhiyuan? It seems destined." Lu Chen raised his eyebrows.
He had no interest in it at first, but now that he heard that it was related to Guan Hong, he felt a little more eager to win.
Because of the treasure map, Shangguanhong has been making small moves behind the scenes.
The grievances between the two parties have become deeper and deeper, and it seems that it is time to settle the matter.
"Since the Cao family changed its patriarch, it has completely become a vassal of the Shangguan family. The entire Cao family's property is being eaten up. After this engagement, Shangguan Hong will probably show his fangs soon." Concubine Cao Xuan's face gradually changed. serious.
The Cao family fought within, causing the brothers to turn against each other.
The relatives in the past have now all become enemies.
Even with the whole family, there is a huge crisis.
Fortunately, she was prepared in advance and transferred all her assets to Yanjing.
In this way, a little fire can be saved for the Cao family.
"Concubine Xuan, when it comes to the Cao family, what does your father think?" Lu Chen asked.
With Cao Guan's connections and prestige, if he really wanted to compete with Cao Guan, he would have a good chance of winning.
"My dad is still trying his best to save the situation and trying to negotiate with the uncle and the others, but unfortunately, the effect is very little." Concubine Cao Xuan shook her head.
Her father was good at everything, but he was too emotional and didn't want to turn against each other, so he kept regressing.
Up to now, Cao's family has lost their hearts and is in a state of disunity.
"It seems that your father is still a little worried, but when encountering this kind of thing, you have to break through and build up." Lu Chen reminded.
It's right to be concerned about brotherly feelings, but if you keep giving in, it will only make the situation worse.
"I hope my dad can wake up soon." Concubine Cao Xuan looked a little complicated.
She can help her father turn the situation around, but the problem is that her father has no plans to fight now.
"Oh, right......"
At this time, Concubine Cao Xuan seemed to have thought of something, and took out an exquisite bag of tips from her bag and handed it to Lu Chen: "It's your birthday tomorrow. This is a gift from my dad."
"Thank you father for me." Lu Chen smiled.
"Open it and take a look." Concubine Cao Xuan winked.
"Now?"
After receiving confirmation, Chase Lu slowly opened the kit and took out a well-preserved piece of parchment. JrNovels.com
