Lu Jing's face was ashen, unable to speak.
Yuan Li realized he had guessed correctly and burst into laughter. He immediately wrote a letter to Zhao Hanzhang, handed over all the evidence to a trusted aide, and sent them back to Luoyang urgently. He also sent a telegraph to Zhao Hanzhang to inform her of the matter, then said, "The Lu Family can be exterminated."
Zhao Hanzhang felt a twinge of regret upon receiving the telegram. If only it hadn't happened now. It would have been better if the matter had been exposed earlier or later; now... it was not suitable.
Zhao Hanzhang set aside the telegram and waited quietly for the evidence to arrive.
Zhou Qi led the Yangzhou military. Many of the influential families from Jiangnan accompanying him were pleased, as this indicated Zhao Hanzhang acknowledged their status in Jiangnan.
