Lu Qi himself is the patriarch of the seventh branch, so he naturally knows the loyalty that the patriarchs of each branch should uphold.
But even so, he still said with a sullen face: "Ma'am... those shareholders have all met with Lu Huanting. In addition, four of the nine branch owners also accepted Lu Huanting's visit."
"Four... how is it possible?!"
This time, the astonishment in Zhuo Yarong's eyes was stronger than when she heard Zhuo Mingfu betrayed her.
"Are they going to rebel? They even dare to violate the Lu family's family rules!" Zhuo Yarong's frown showed weakness.
After all, she had been Mrs. Lu for decades, and after her face turned cold, she slapped her palm on the table hard, with a sense of majesty.
"I'm afraid there is something hidden here."
Lu Qi expressed his doubts, "The patriarchs of each of our branches have sworn oaths when we inherit the position of patriarchs, and we must be the masters of the family from generation to generation."
"They dared to accept Lu Huanting's visit in private. It is likely that Lu Huanting held a handle that they could not contend with..."
Xin Luo also frowned after hearing Lu Qi's speculation.
"No, not necessarily."
She suddenly remembered what Grandma Lu had told her.
The heads of several branches of the Lu family have different temperaments.
And those who can ascend to the position of head of the branch will not be easily threatened by Lu Huanting.
What's more, how could it be that Lu Huanting had the handle of four Patriarchs at the same time, before it was too early or too late.
"Lu Qi, who are the four patriarchs who met Lu Huanting?"
"Lu Si, Lu Wu, Lu Liu, and Lu Ba." Lu Qi calmly stated the order of these Patriarchs.
Hearing the word 'Lu Si', Xin Luo's heart skipped a beat.
"The head of the Lu family, or Lu Zhihe?"
"Yes, it's still Lu Zhihe." Lu Qi nodded.
"However, Lu Zhihe has basically retreated behind the scenes in the past two years. The real power of the Lu family is his son... Lu Qinghao."
Both Zhuo Yarong and Lu Qi knew about the past relationship between Xinluo and Lu Qinghao.
Lu Qi carefully said the word 'Lu Qinghao', fearing that the young lady would have a grudge.
Xinluo nodded nonchalantly, as if the name 'Lu Qinghao' was just a stranger to her
"If that's the case, I guess Lu Huanting didn't threaten them with excuses. I don't know about the others, but I do know about Lu Zhihe and his son. They have always had ambitions. I speculate that Lu Huanting should have promised them a lot of money."
Having said that, Xin Luo looked at Zhuo Yarong, "By the way, Mom, before I came back, Mr. Qiao told me and Yu Chen that Lu Huanting threatened him that he had something to bring down Yu Chen."
"I don't know if his so-called handle is real or a bluff, but I believe that even if he didn't disclose it to Mr. Joe, he would definitely disclose it to these partners."
Several shareholders of the imperial court, as well as the four branch patriarchs who were visited by Lu Huanting.
Xin Luo didn't believe it, none of these people knew what Lu Huanting's hole card was.
"He has something against Yuchen...?"
For some reason, hearing these words, Zhuo Yarong felt her heart beating faster.
"No, it's impossible... After so many years, if he really has something to do with Yuchen, he should have revealed it long ago."
Seeing Zhuo Yarong's sad expression, Xinluo couldn't help comforting him: "Mom, don't worry. Starting tomorrow, I will let Lu Qi accompany me to visit several shareholders and all the branch owners. Don't worry, no matter what, I will definitely win their support for Yuchen."
