Chapter 639: Help from Patriarch Lu
"This...what you said makes some sense, but...will Jiang Chen come?"
The Eighth Wise King said with some concern.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Jiang Chen will definitely come!"
Yao Chao said with confidence.
"Oh? Are you so sure?"
The Eighth Wise King wondered.
"Of course, because Jiang Chen definitely doesn't want to break up with us now!"
"Okay! Then I'll listen to you!"
The Eighth Wise King finally adopted Yao Chao's suggestion.
Soon, the envoy of the Eighth Wise King arrived at the Jinling government office.
"The Eighth Wise King wants to host a banquet for me?"
"Haha, that's interesting!"
After hearing the messenger's words, Jiang Chen couldn't help but laugh!
"My Lord, you can't go! This must be the Eighth Wise King trying to harm you!"
"Now, the story between you and the Eighth Sage King is spreading in Jinling County. The Eighth Sage King must have bad intentions in inviting you at this time!"
"Yes, sir! You can't take it lightly!"
Han Peng hurriedly tried to persuade him.
But Jiang Chen smiled.
"Haha, don't worry."
"The Eighth Wise King invited me to dinner because he didn't want to fight me!"
"If he wanted to fight with me, he wouldn't have invited me to dinner!" Jiang Chen smiled faintly.
"This……"
Han Peng was slightly stunned, somewhat confused about what Jiang Chen meant.
"Don't worry, we can go to the appointment tonight, and nothing will happen!"
Jiang Chen said calmly.
He knew that the Eighth Wise King must be afraid of the rumors and did not want his reputation to be damaged, so he invited him to dinner to dispel the rumors.
Jiang Chen also didn't want to fight with the Eighth Wise King directly, so he naturally had to attend the banquet!
However, Jiang Chen plans to bring Chu Xuan along to the banquet this time!
This way, even if something happens, the two of them will be able to protect themselves!
……
On the other side, the Jinling County Magistrate found the third son of the Lu family!
"What? Not enough evidence!?"
When the third son of the Lu family heard the Jinling County Magistrate say that there was insufficient evidence, he immediately panicked!
If this wasn't enough evidence, would he still take action?!
"Third Young Master, you should know that behind your eldest brother is not only your Lu family, but also the Eighth Sage King!"
"Therefore, we must not act rashly when there is insufficient evidence!"
"Now, we must find some more evidence!" said the Jinling County Magistrate in a deep voice.
"Finding more evidence... is so difficult!"
The third young master of the Lu family had an extremely ugly expression on his face!
"Third Young Master, you will definitely find a way, I believe in you!" said the Jinling County Magistrate with a smile on his face.
That look was exactly like when Jiang Chen was controlling him!
"Oh! Since the county magistrate said so, I will go back and think of a solution!" The third son of the Lu family sighed and left.
No matter how reluctant he was, he had no choice but to agree!
After all, he could only inherit the position of patriarch if he got rid of Lucius!
After the third son of the Lu family returned home, the patriarch of the Lu family called him to the study in the backyard!
"My son, meet your father!"
When the third son of the Lu family saw the head of the Lu family, he hurriedly saluted.
"No need to be polite, just sit down!"
Patriarch Lu said calmly.
"Yes! Thank you, father!"
When the third son of the Lu family heard what the head of the Lu family said, he sat down on the chair obediently.
After the third son of the Lu family sat down, the head of the Lu family spoke.
"What have you been busy with Lord Wang recently?"
When the third son of the Lu family heard what the head of the Lu family said, he was stunned!
How did Patriarch Lu know that he was conspiring with Lord Wang, the governor of Jinling County?
Could it be that Patriarch Lu is sending someone to follow him?
……
"Father, please forgive me!"
"My child... my child and Lord Wang were just chatting casually."
"Lord Wang is now in prison. I want to help him!"
The third son of the Lu family knelt on the ground and spoke tremblingly.
He didn't dare say that he was secretly harming Lucius!
If his father gets angry, he's dead!
"Haha, I know exactly what you are doing!"
"Lucius really went too far with what he did!"
"He is being used by others and he doesn't even know it!" The head of the Lu family laughed coldly.
But when the third son of the Lu family heard this, he couldn't help but tremble!
Master Lu...what did you know?
This...how is this possible! ?
"Old Third, you are very smart and sensible!"
"Father won't blame you!"
"Besides, your father will help you!"
Patriarch Lu suddenly changed the subject!
When the third son of the Lu family heard this, he was stunned!
"Help me!?"
"How...how can I help?"
"Haha, some of your brother's subordinates were specially arranged by me!"
“Among these people, someone happened to be involved in the affairs of the fishing village and the Ye family!”
"Do you think this help is enough?"
Patriarch Lu laughed coldly.
"hiss!"
When the third son of the Lu family heard what his father said, he was completely stunned!
His father actually arranged people under his eldest brother and knew everything!
This... this is simply terrible!
Did his father arrange someone under him?
The third son of the Lu family felt a surge of fear when he thought of this!
Fortunately, he just wanted to compete with his elder brother for the position of head of the family and did not do anything else!
Otherwise, he probably wouldn't even know how he died!
……
"My dear, thank you father!"
The third son of the Lu family bowed respectfully to the head of the Lu family and then left.
After the third son of the Lu family left, the head of the Lu family laughed coldly: "Haha, one or two of you, do you think that I, the head of the family, am just a decoration?"
"If I don't have this ability, how can I be the head of the family?"
The head of the Lu family has long been on guard against his sons!
After all, anything can happen in a big family!
At the beginning, Mr. Lu had no intention of getting involved in the little fights between his sons.
After all, this is how it is in a big family. Whoever has the ability will be the head of the family!
But Lu Xiu should never, ever, surrender to the Eighth Wise King!
The Lu family doesn't want to be someone else's running dog!
Not to mention, you can’t even get involved in a battle like the fight for the throne!
So, Lucius...can only be abandoned!
That afternoon, the third son of the Lu family received help from the head of the Lu family.
A guard came to the courtyard of the third son of the Lu family!
"My servant greets you, sir!"
After seeing the Third Young Master, the guard bowed to him respectfully!
"Well, come on, let's go meet the county magistrate!"
The third son of the Lu family said indifferently.
But the excitement in his eyes could not be suppressed!
Because the third son of the Lu family knew that since his father had given this guard to him, it meant that the Lu family had given up on Lu Xiu!
Then the possibility of the third son becoming the head of the Lu family in the future will double!
You know, his competitors have always been the bosses!
After all, the second one has always been unknown and cannot pose any threat!
