But it was the Cao family, who were of the same clan and origin, who kidnapped Concubine Cao Xuan and killed Cao Guan.

He couldn't bear this kind of fratricidal behavior!

"Lu Chen, we know we were wrong and we won't dare to do it again."

"Please let us go. We promise that we will never go against Concubine Cao Xuan again!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Cao Zhiyuan quickly surrendered and begged for mercy.

"Does it still make sense to say this now?"

Lu Chen said coldly: "You have used dirty tricks again and again and tried every means to fight for power. Although you went too far in the past, at least you have not violated the bottom line. However, now, your actions have completely lost your humanity. You have lost your conscience and are worse than animals. Why should you ask for my forgiveness?"

"No matter what, we are all relatives of Concubine Cao Xuan, and we are the same race connected by blood. If something happens to us, she will definitely be sad. You like Concubine Cao Xuan so much, and you definitely don't want to see her cry, right?" Cao Zhiyuan began. Play the emotional card.

"Relatives? Compatriots? Thank you for your ability to speak out!"

Lu Chen snorted coldly and pointed at Cao Guan's body: "Open your dog eyes and look! Who is lying on the ground?? You killed Concubine Xuan's father, and now you still have the nerve to fart here, It’s so shameless!”

"I......"

Cao Zhiyuan was speechless for a moment.

Cao Jun and others next to him also lowered their heads in shame.

Although they had no murderous intentions, Cao Guan's death was inseparable from them.

"Someone must pay the price for Uncle Cao's death. Whoever is behind the scenes should commit suicide and apologize."

Lu Chen said coldly, pulled out a knife belonging to the person next to him, and threw it in front of everyone in the Cao family with a "clang" sound.

"what?"

Looking at the sharp knife, everyone in the Cao family looked at each other, completely at a loss.

This is clearly meant to scare the monkeys, and whoever dares to admit it will die.

You only have one life, who wants to be the scapegoat?

"What? Refusing to plead guilty?"

Lu Chen's eyes turned cold and he said sternly: "If you dare not admit your crime, then everyone will die!"

"what?!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Cao family changed their expressions.

This means sitting together!

If one person does not die, the entire clan will be destroyed. In this case, someone must take the blame.

It is simply impossible to muddle through.

At this thought, most people's eyes glanced at Cao Zhiyuan.

In fact, many people knew in their hearts that Cao Zhiyuan was responsible for this matter, but due to the other party's identity, they did not dare to say it openly.

After all, as the clan leader's daughter and Shangguan Hong's fiancée, they really couldn't afford to offend her.

But it's different now. Their lives are at stake, and if they don't tell the truth, they will all suffer.

"You...what do you think I'm doing? I didn't do it!"

Feeling the strange looks around her, Cao Zhiyuan immediately roared angrily.

His eyes were fierce and somewhat threatening.

"Cao Zhiyuan, everyone knows what you did, admit it yourself!"

"Yes! Don't let your personal behavior affect our entire clan!"

"Cao Zhiyuan! If you make a mistake, you have to pay the price. Stop making excuses and admit your guilt honestly. That is the best destination for you!"

At this moment, everyone in the Cao family began to criticize and began to criticize him in various ways.

Under the threat of death, they no longer care about their family ties.

For a time, Cao Zhiyuan completely became the target of public criticism.
