Chapter 101 The Lu Family is in Chaos
Lu Qin has always been unscrupulous in his actions, and he has been in a high position for too long. He feels that Song Tangning deserves to die for slandering the Lu family and making things difficult for them.
If it were someone else, he would have taken her life long ago. Now he has only ruined her reputation. At worst, he can let Lu Zhinian marry her into his family in the future. Their Lu family has been kind enough to her.
Seeing that Lu Chongyuan did not respond, Lu Qin said in a deep voice: "Father, don't forget how she humiliated you and Sanlang. She is not worthy of making the descendants of the Lu family kneel to her!"
Lu Chongyuan thought of what Song Tangning had said to him today, and of Xiao Yan's arrogance, and his eyes turned cold. "You go and handle this matter, and do it cleanly."
Lu Qin looked relaxed: "Don't worry, it's just a small matter, I..."
“Knock knock.”
The sudden knock on the door interrupted the unfinished words inside. Before Lu Chongyuan could speak, his close confidant pushed the door open, his face full of anxiety.
"My Lord, something bad has happened. Mr. San has been captured."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Chongyuan frowned and looked at the person in front of the door.
Lu Zhao also said in a deep voice: "Sanlang is staying in the mansion safely, what do you mean he was arrested..."
"Master, Master Lang, it's true. The Third Young Master secretly went to the Duke of Song's mansion after dark and was caught red-handed by the Black Armor Guards. He has been taken to the Imperial Prison."
Lu Chongyuan and the other two stood up quickly.
"Is he crazy? Why is he going to Duke Song's mansion in the middle of the night?!" Lu Qin's eyes were full of shock.
The man at the door was pale. "We still don't know what Sanlangjun was doing, but the people at the Imperial Prison said that Sanlangjun and Song Mo were captured inside the Duke's Mansion. The Black Armor Guards said they were acting suspiciously and seemed to be plotting something bad."
"Master, the affair between the Duke of Song's Mansion and the Crown Prince's old associates has been confirmed. Song Hong's chances of recovery are clear. There have long been speculations that our Lu family is connected to them. Now that the Third Master has been arrested, I'm afraid Xiao Yan will take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble..."
Lu Chongyuan's face turned pale, and when he felt the sweet and fishy taste in his throat, his body shook and he almost fainted from anger.
"Father!" Lu Zhao hurriedly supported him.
Lu Qin was so angry that he jumped up and down: "What's wrong with him? He went to the Duke of Song's mansion for no reason. Does he think the Lu family is not in chaos enough?"
Xiao Yan, the mad dog, had been eyeing them covetously and would cause trouble without any excuse. Now that Lu Zhinian was caught red-handed, how could that mad dog let go of the opportunity?
And Song Tangning, Lu Zhinian's affair with the Song family is confirmed, so even if he destroys Song Tangning's reputation, what's the point? Lu Zhinian is simply crazy! !
Lu Chongyuan was so angry that his eyes went dark, his whole body was shaking, and he gasped and hoarsely said:
"Asshole, asshole!!"
He wants to kill the Lu family! !
…
The Lu family was in chaos all night, and Tang Ning slept uneasily while snuggling next to Princess Cheng. When she woke up the next day, it was almost noon. While she was still drowsy, she was startled by the news brought by Canglang.
"Who did you say was in prison?"
"Lu family's third son."
Song Tangning opened his mouth in surprise. How could Lu Zhinian suddenly be imprisoned?
Canglang stood there and said with a smile: "Last night, the third son of the Lu family suddenly went to the Duke of Song's mansion and was caught by the black-armored guards who were looking for something at the Song family."
"The Song family was sealed off by His Majesty's decree a while ago. No one is allowed to enter that place until the case of the Song family is resolved. However, Lu Zhinian violated the taboo and got involved with the Song family. The governor ordered him to be sent in to keep the Song family company."
Song Tangning was completely stunned. She had been at loggerheads with the Lu family and had long since fallen out with them. Naturally, she was happy to see Lu Zhinian in trouble, but she had thought that the Lu family was busy trying to find a way to raise those things, or thinking of ways to force her to back down. But who could have imagined that Lu Zhinian actually went to the Duke of Song's mansion under the cover of night and had someone capture him.
Princess Cheng asked, "The Duke's Mansion has been raided, why would he go to the Song family?"
"I don't know." Canglang was also puzzled. "When the Black Armor Guards captured him, he was with an attendant in a remote area of the Song family. He looked as if he had lost his soul. He didn't say a word after being taken away, and the attendant beside him was even more stubborn."
Lu Zhinian's appearance was too strange, and he looked like a lost soul after being caught. The follower beside him named Song Mo only said that his husband had a high fever and his mind was confused, and he thought that Miss Song was still in the Song family, so he brought him there.
Canglang scoffed at this reason, but he took his men to search every place Lu Zhinian had been to inside and out.
The yard was so desolate that even ghosts couldn't hide, and there was nothing inside. Even he couldn't figure out what Lu Zhinian was trying to do.
"But no matter what he did, trespassing into the forbidden mansion is a crime. It seems Lu Zhinian went there without telling the Lu family. Lu Chongyuan was completely unaware of the situation. He was furious last night. This morning at the court, Cao Gong and his men impeached the Lu family for colluding with the Song Guogong Mansion, which led to their disobedience to the imperial decree and their nighttime visit to the Song family. Lu Chongyuan was speechless and nearly fainted from anger."
Lu Chongyuan was extremely cautious, fearing that the governor would do something bad, and also afraid that Xiao Yan would take revenge for the assassination attempt yesterday. He trembled with fear and barely made it through the morning court, but who knew that he would be stabbed in the back by his own grandson.
The affairs between the Lu family and the Song Guogong Mansion were already complicated, and there were many discussions outside that they colluded with the Song family to conceal the old friends of the Crown Prince. Now that Lu Zhi, the detective of the Song family, was caught red-handed, Lu Chongyuan was almost angered to death.
That scene was really delightful.
"Serves you right!" Princess Cheng cursed.
Song Tangning also deeply agreed with this. She was particularly happy when the Lu family was in trouble. It would be best if Lu Zhinian and Song Shulan could "love each other" in the imperial prison together and not come out to harm others. However, there were more important things at the moment...
Song Tangning's face turned serious: "Brother went to the palace?"
The smile on Canglang's face froze instantly: "No!"
"Then how do you know what happened in the morning court?"
"Uh..." Canglang choked.
Song Tangning seemed to have caught something: "Brother promised me yesterday that he would stay at the mansion to recuperate. Didn't he take leave?"
Seeing Song Tangning looking at him with suspicion, Canglang remembered that his own governor had sneaked out of the house early in the morning to attend court in the palace. He frowned and coughed softly, pretending not to hear Song Tangning's question, and just talked about other things.
"The Governor asked me to come and tell Miss Song about Lu Zhinian's situation, so as not to disrupt your future arrangements with the Lu family. Now that I have delivered the message, I will take my leave..."
"Hey wait!" Song Tangning quickly stopped the person who was trying to escape: "Where is my brother?"
"I'm resting in the mansion." Canglang replied, and he was already outside the courtyard. "The governor has also instructed me to do something, Miss Song, I'm leaving first!"
As soon as the words were spoken outside, Canglang disappeared, and Song Tangning stomped his feet in anger.
Brother you are a liar!!
Princess Cheng next to her couldn't help but burst out laughing.
