"However, Xie's pendant is slightly different from Brother Luo's!" Xie Feng said, taking out a pendant from his arms and placing it on the table.

Chen Hao and Luo Feilong looked away. The pendant on the table was shaped like a star-shaped sawtooth, with simple colors and irregular patterns crisscrossing it. These features were somewhat similar to Luo Feilong's pendant.

Luo Feilong was also surprised when he saw it, so he took off the pendant from his neck and placed it on the table. Chen Hao raised his eyes and saw that the two pendants were different in size, but the texture was very similar. When held in his hand, the texture was also very similar.

The obvious difference is that Luo Feilong's pendant is slightly larger in shape, and it is uneven and has many edges and corners.

"This... you two are really interesting. Not only do you have the same pendant, but the pendant is also very similar!" Chen Hao looked at the two pendants on the table and looked at Luo Feilong and Xie Feng with interest.

Luo Feilong couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this, and then looked at Xie Feng doubtfully and said: "Brother Xie, is this also passed down by his ancestors?"

Xie Feng said with a solemn expression: "That's right!"

"Why is there such a coincidence? Is this a token of love?" Luo Feilong asked himself with a strange expression. Thinking of this, Luo Feilong raised his head and looked at Chen Hao.

Poof! Chen Hao couldn't hold back his sip of tea, and it poured all over Luo Feilong's face.

What, a love token? Could it be that the ancestors of the Luo family and the Xie family are related by marriage? But this should also be a match between a man and a woman. These words come from the mouth of a big man like you, which is really funny... Do you two big men want to take the gay love route?

Even Xie Feng on the side had a very unnatural expression on his face. To cover up his embarrassment, he deliberately turned sideways and sipped tea alone, pretending not to hear anything.

Luo Feilong's resentful eyes stared at Chen Hao unnaturally, so Chen Hao spread his hands and said helplessly: "Maybe there is a connection between them. Your father was so cautious when passing this thing on, which is enough to explain it.

It’s not an extraordinary thing! If it’s as you said, Brother Luo, then it should be Fengjiao and Brother Xie, not you..."

"How did Sajia ever say it was him?" Luo Feilong said with a look of displeasure and grievance. As he spoke, he did not forget to wipe the tea stains on his face with his big hands like cattail leaf fans.

Forehead……

Forehead……

Chen Hao turned away in embarrassment and said to Xie Feng, who was pretending to be dumbfounded, "Brother Xie, what do you think?"

"You two were joking. Even if there is any connection between our ancestors, it has already passed away... Besides, this may be just a coincidence!" Xie Feng said very naturally, without taking this matter to heart at all.

"Brother Xie is right. The world is full of wonders, and it is not surprising that there are things similar to this... Hey, it is really hard to endure without wine, and drinking such weak tea is really boring!" Luo Feilong's emotions came and went quickly.

Soon, I found out that I was addicted to alcohol.

Chen Hao glanced sideways at Luo Feilong and said angrily: "You are a drunkard. If you don't have three jars of wine a day, you will go crazy. Don't you know that this wine is very harmful to the body? Fengjiao has made it clear a long time ago that she asked me to supervise the wine with you."

, Otherwise, why would I let you follow me to this fireworks Yangzhou?"

When Luo Feilong heard about his sister, he begged helplessly with a look of resentment on his face: "Sajia is just talking, just drink less. When you see Fengjiao, brother, you must keep your words and be kind..."

Chen Hao nodded noncommittally, agreeing to Luo Feilong's request. Chen Hao knew very well that if anyone in this world could control Luo Feilong, it must be his sister Luo Fengjiao.

At this moment, Chen Hao raised his eyes and saw Lu Changqing walking towards here from a distance. He knew that there must be something important, so he said a little thoughtfully: "The day before yesterday, Governor Tong sent some jars of good wine, which have not been opened in the living room. It is said that

It’s decades-old wine…”

Before Chen Hao finished speaking, he felt a figure flash in front of him and walked towards the front hall. Xie Feng was still calm, and gave Chen Hao a simple salute before running towards the front hall.

Chen Hao couldn't help but smile when he saw the two of them looking so anxious. He had really met these two drunkards.

Lu Changqing came forward and hurriedly saluted: "My subordinate, Lu Changqing, is here to meet you, Your Excellency!"

"Brother Lu, you're welcome, what's the matter?"

"Steward Du Mansion came to deliver a famous assassin in order to see you, sir..." Lu Changqing replied solemnly.

"Oh? How many times?"

"Sir, I will be here every day for the next three days!" Lu Changqing replied solemnly.

After hearing this, Chen Hao stood up slowly, walked to Lu Changqing's side and said in a deep voice: "Then let him wait!" After saying that, he walked towards the study. When he was about to disappear in the backyard, Chen Hao turned his head and continued with a half-smile.

: "If someone comes who is hungry and thirsty, you will wait for him and deliver the paste to him. The people in the Du family are particularly noble. If he dies outside the palace due to hunger and thirst, I cannot afford to pay for it..."

"Yes!" Lu Changqing watched Chen Hao disappear in the backyard, but his heart felt particularly comfortable. To be able to make the Du family so miserable was a grand event that he had never seen before in Yangzhou for ten years.

Since the capture of Du Zhan in Taihu Lake, the Du family has sent stewards to deliver famous assassins every day, hoping that the deposed emissary would look at the Du family's face and treat the Du family's children leniently.

However, Chen Hao refused to accept this trick. As the deposed envoy, he supervises the officials of various states and has the power to depose officials below the third rank. You, a Du family, are so arrogant that you even sent a steward to submit a complaint and then deposed him.

Where is Hao placed?

Regarding the recent affairs in Yangzhou, Chen Hao made a detailed charter and sent it to the capital a few days ago. Chen Hao didn't know what impact his memorial would have on the capital, but he knew that he had tried his best. Du

The brown has been removed, and one hundred thousand taels of gold have been obtained. If the emperor still wants to let himself feel the sorrow of the death of a rabbit and a fox, then he can only admit it...

At this moment, Chang'an is in turmoil, and the forces of all parties are fluctuating slightly, especially the Cui and Lu parties. There is an undercurrent surging. All parties have already known the news of the death of Huainan Jiedushi, but who

There was no direct move.

As the mainstay of the Lu family, Du Zang died in the hands of a young man like this. How could everyone in the Lu family not be filled with indignation. It was already late at night, but the living room of the Lu family was still brightly lit, and dozens of people in the living room looked solemn.

Sitting upright.

"Mr. Ge, you can let me make the decision on this matter!" an old man in his sixties who was near the chief said sadly.

The person who spoke was none other than Du Wanshan, Du Zong's father, who was an imperial censor. He had received the news of his son Du Zong's death the day before yesterday. It was extremely painful for a white-haired man to send a black-haired man away. How could he, who had lived in the officialdom for a long time, believe what he saw on the surface?

Ci, how could he not see the strangeness in this matter, which was inevitably related to Chen Haoding who was far away in Yangzhou, but he was too late to regret it.

Lu Shang, the chief, had his eyes slightly closed. He was already in his sixties and his beard and hair were all white. Everyone was silent, waiting for Lu Shang to speak.

After a moment of silence, Lu Shang slowly opened his eyes, looked around the crowd and said softly: "What do you think?"

Before anyone else could speak, Du Wanshan said anxiously: "Mr. Ge, I will ask you to make the decision when I go to court tomorrow. You must punish that little boy for overstepping his authority. Even if he deposes an envoy, he has the authority to depose officials from the Tao, Prefecture, and Prefectures.

And who gave him the right to be punished on the spot?"

Lu Shang frowned slightly, and then said slowly: "Du Yushi, I can understand that you are in a hurry and are in trouble. Don't you know that the imperial edict in the little boy's hand says 'Behead first and report later'? Besides, this matter has already been explained in the letter from Du Quan, your subordinate.

, it started from internal strife and Chen Hao just put down the rebellion..."

"Lord Ge, this is obviously a plan of that boy to hide the truth..." Guanglu doctor Du Qian, as a member of the Du family, retorted with great injustice and indignation.

"Oh? Is there any evidence?" Lu Shang asked with interest.

"This..." Du Qian was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.

"However, my son Du Zong is a military governor and has an official position. How can he handle it casually? Chen Hao must have misinterpreted the holy will and asked the elder to make the decision for him!" Du Wanshan said, stumbling.

When he reached the foot of the steps, he knelt down and burst into tears.

When everyone saw this, they were very angry and filled with righteous indignation. For a moment, the hall became very noisy and the atmosphere became extremely violent.

"My lord, this Chen Hao is too arrogant and lawless. I think he should be severely punished!" Shen Mengxing, the minister's left prime minister, stepped forward and said respectfully, his words were sincere and righteous.

"My lord, I think what some of my colleagues said is true. Even if he is Lord Bai's disciple, he cannot be allowed to act recklessly. This will shake our foundation..." Taichang Shaoqing Yue Zifeng analyzed it with a stern voice.

Crucial.

"My lord, I would like to second my opinion..."

"My lord, I would like to second my opinion..."

At that time, more than half of the officials in the entire hall seconded the proposal, hoping that the elder would take a stand and punish Chen Hao for his misdeeds in Yangzhou.

Lu Shang listened to everyone's discussion, but his eyes were deeply disappointed. He looked up at Lu Wan, who had been silent for a long time, with a slight questioning look in his eyes.

Lu Wan holds an important position as an official in the Ministry of Household Affairs, and is a rising star of the next generation in the Lu family. He is able to hold an important position at the age of less than forty. In addition to his own factional connections, his own abilities cannot be ignored.

Lu Wan is the youngest among the Lu family. His parents died young and he has always been bullied by the family. However, his current achievements are also the most shining and unmatched by everyone in the family. Therefore, Lu Shang, who is in his dying years, has always looked up to Lu Wan.

, there seems to be a trend of the next generation of leaders of the Lu family.
