Although the news of Cao Chong's death had a great impact on Cao Pi, it was still not even greater than that of his influence on the Luoyang Marquis Mansion.

If Cao Pi had to fight against the aristocratic family in advance because of Cao Chong's death, he had to fight directly one-on-one directly, although the confrontation between the Chang'an Marquis Mansion and the aristocratic family was not very strong, it was definitely not to the point where there was no hope at all.

Cao Chong's death was really like no hope for the Luoyang Marquis Mansion.

The huge Luoyang Marquis Mansion has thousands of people and tens of thousands of people surrounding Cao Chong, and it is not just about working for Cao Chong.

They want to gain their own things, which can be reputation, reputation, money, official positions, or the opportunity to leave a name for history books.

But with Cao Chong's death, nothing was left.

Without Cao Chong, why were they in the Luoyang Marquis Mansion?

Why did they waste their time?

Is it because of the so-called loyalty?

Of course there is loyalty, but it is the loyalty you are when you are alive.

In Luoyang Hou Mansion, of course, there are people who are loyal to Cao Chong, but more of those who come due to the situation.

Now that Cao Chong is gone, they don’t seem to be staying in the Luoyang Marquis Mansion.

In Yecheng, which is now like a whirlpool, they have two choices. One is to choose to follow other people, such as Cao Pi, or aristocratic families, and the other is to choose to escape from the world.

No matter how you choose, Luoyang Marquis Mansion is no longer the choice of these people.

For them, following Cao Chong and staying in Luoyang Marquis' Mansion is more like a life experience, more like one's own experience, and more like a banquet.

And there is no banquet that will last forever.

After the death of the Luoyang Marquis, the banquet seemed to be over.

At this time, the atmosphere in the Luoyang Marquis Mansion was a bit gloomy.

The desolation of life is the greatest interpretation of Luoyang Marquis Mansion at this time. In the lobby of the outer courtyard of Luoyang Marquis Mansion, the atmosphere is even more stagnant.

Xu Shu sat in a high position with a dark face. Behind Xu Shu, Xin Chang, Deng Ai and Zhao Yan also lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

This atmosphere lasted for a long time, but it would not continue like this. The first person to break this atmosphere was the Zhen family.

Zhen Yao stood up step by step, he glanced at Xu Shu, bowed and asked, "Master Xu, Junhou is really... really like what outsiders say, is he dead?"

Xu Shu raised his head, his face still dark. He took a deep breath. The reason for saying it was a big breath was because the sound of his breathing could basically be heard by the people in the hall.

It took a while before Xu Shu spoke.

"If it is expected, Junhou is indeed no longer alive."

Speaking of this, two lines of clear tears flowed down Xu Shu's face, and he looked painful and thin. With his blood-filled eyes, Xu Shu's pain was directly displayed in front of everyone.

"But the corpse was burned to this shape. Zhen Yao didn't think it was Junhou's body. Perhaps Junhou was still alive."

If Cao Chong was still alive, he would definitely tell Xu Shu about his life. Zhen Yao said this, obviously it was a cliché.

This is not only a problem for Zhen Yao, but also a problem for most of the people present, regardless of whether these people are loyal to Cao Chong or just for the benefit.

Xu Shu glanced at Zhen Yao, turned around and looked at everyone present, and said, "I also think that Junhou is still in the world. Compared to you, my relationship with Junhou is only good. He is my student. I have also imagined that Junhou is still alive, but judging from the clothes and ornaments of the corpse, this corpse belongs to Junhou."

"After Junhou was detained in Dali Temple, he didn't say anything to you, and he had no plans. Master Xu just let Junhou go deep into the tiger's den like this?"

Zhen Yao's meaning was obvious, and he still suspected that Cao Chong was still alive.

Xu Shu also went to see Cao Chong today, and the two of them would definitely discuss plans.

Then Xu Shu left, Cao Chong was still inside, proving that there was a countermeasure between the two.

but...

What about your countermeasures?

"I did meet Junhou that day and discussed the plan, but we all felt that Junhou would not be in danger. Moreover, the Minister of Dali Temple is Man Chong, and Man Chong is not from the aristocratic family. Moreover, we installed several prison guards around Junhou to protect Junhou indirectly. Who would have thought that the aristocratic family would actually want to kill Junhou as if they were determined."

At the end, Xu Shu said deeply, expressing his regret clearly.

Even Xu Shu thought Cao Chong was dead, so the Marquis of Luoyang might really die.

Zhen Yao had a little disappointed face.

The Zhen family got rid of Cao Pi and paid the price. Fortunately, Cao Chong was willing to accept him because Cao Chong and some industries under Cao Chong's name made the Zhen family feel sad. From a personal point of view, Zhen Yao was naturally grateful to Cao Chong.

But from a family perspective, he knew what he was going to do.

The Luoyang Marquis Mansion is now like a big tree with rotten roots. No matter how lush the upper layer is, it cannot resist the collapse of the tree.

The Luoyang Marquis Mansion will definitely not exist for long.

As one of them, the Zhen family has few choices.

One is that the Luoyang Marquis Mansion struggled to support it, but this definitely won’t last long. The only ending is that the Zhen family declined with the decline of the Luoyang Marquis Mansion.

This choice is not something Zhen Yao can choose.

Then you can make another choice.

He took the property that Luoyang Hou gave to the Zhen family during his lifetime and took the lead in this whirlpool again.

In the industries under the name of the Marquis of Luoyang, such as glass, soap and perfume, they are profitable. If the Zhen family can take it as their own, it is not a luxury to become the richest family in the world.

Moreover, if the Zhen family succeeds in taking the team, it is not impossible for him to become the first family in the world, and he can even become an existence below one person and above ten thousand people.

Or is it a king?

Ambitions gradually grew in his heart.

As for Zhen Mi who followed Cao Chong, it was worthless in his eyes.

Women are always used for transactions, even if this person is his own sister.

Zhen Yao had long thought about what to do.

Huh ~

Zhen Yao took a deep breath and said to Xu Shu: "Since the Lord and Marquis are dead, then I, Zhen Yao, and it will be a bit abrupt for my Zhen family to stay in the Luoyang Marquis Mansion."

Zhen Yao took it straightforwardly and expressed his thoughts of leaving.

Xu Shu's face was very calm at this time, and his face was much calmer than before.

He looked at Zhen Yao deeply.

The fall of the tree and the money scattered is inevitable. The decline of the Luoyang Marquis Mansion is inevitable, and it is even more inevitable that someone will leave.

However, the departure speed is too fast, too decisive, right?

After confirming the news of Cao Chong's death, he will immediately break away from the control of the Luoyang Marquis Mansion?

Zhen family, Zhen Yao...it's really good!

"Zhen Yao, are you sure you will leave the Luoyang Marquis Mansion tonight?"

Not only Xu Shu, but also Zhao Yan and Deng Aixin opened their faces.

For Zhao Yan, he was a poor family and was able to achieve his current achievements, which was completely appreciated by Cao Chong. It is not an exaggeration to say that Cao Chong is his mentor. Since he had the kindness of knowing him, he naturally could not leave the Luoyang Marquis' Mansion immediately after the death of the Luoyang Marquis.

At least, at least you have to avenge your king.

The king and the marquis died in Dali Temple without understanding. Shouldn’t he have avenged him and then left the marquis’ mansion?

Are you leaving in such a hurry?

For Deng Ai, he was originally even more humble. Now Cao Chong is like a friend or a brother, and he will not leave the Luoyang Marquis Mansion at this time.

As for Xin Chang, his sister is now the wife of the Luoyang Marquis. Regardless of whether the Luoyang Marquis is alive or dead, the Xin family is behind the Luoyang Marquis Mansion. Now that he comes, he has no reason to leave the Luoyang Marquis Mansion.

Zhen Yao looked at the angry group in front of him and said, "The tree falls and the money scatters, and good birds choose trees to live in. Those who know the times are heroes. If Zhen Yao is alone, he will naturally sacrifice his life to accompany the hero and kill the enemy for the king and the lord. However, Zhen Yao is not alone. There is a family behind Zhen Yao who needs to support him. Zhen Yao's lives need to be cared for. Therefore, it is time for the banquet with you to leave."

"If the ungrateful person had known this, I would have asked the Lord to keep your Zhen family out of the house. Now your Zhen family will not be like an ungrateful wolf who is not well-fried."

After being scolded like this by Zhao Yan, Zhen Yao's face turned pale and pale, but he still did not have an attack in the end.

"Deshui, I think it's better for you and I to be more harmonious in the last time we spend together. After all, we have been working together for more than a year."

Xin Chang spat and spit out a pool of saliva.

"Working with someone like you for more than a year is simply the most cowardly thing in your life."

"Xin Chang, you..."

"Slaves of the Three Certains!"

"Enough!" Xu Shu said loudly, and after slowing down the wine, he said: "Everyone has his own ambitions, don't force him. Since Zhen Yao is leaving, then leave."

Zhen Yao forced a smile on his face, he bowed to Xu Shu and said, "Thank you, Master."

"But you don't be happy so quickly."

The smile on Zhen Yao's face gradually disappeared.

"What does this sentence from Master mean?"
