When Zhu Yu moved closer, Lu Yan and Lu Zhang were in a heated argument, exchanging sharp words, seemingly about to escalate into a full-blown quarrel.
Lu Qing stood by without interjecting, observing the scene with a detached demeanor. Occasionally, he would try to mediate with a comment, but it had as much effect as pouring a cup of tea onto a roaring bonfire — none at all.
However, Zhu Yu saw very clearly that Lu Qing's act of being unable to interject was actually a façade, as he had no intention of stopping them from arguing.
Seeing Zhu Yu approach, Lu Qing asked with his eyes, and Zhu Yu beckoned him closer. She whispered about the plans concerning the talisman and rune she had previously ordered: "According to the rune's intentions, this matter can indeed be executed swiftly in one go. But to do so, you'll need to stop those two from arguing, as their troops will be crucial."
