Chapter 244 Retribution...



"Don't worry, cousin. Your grandfather is already on his way to Shengjing. The Changning Marquisate has gone too far, and we will never let them off easy!"

When Qin Shaobei learned about this, he came to the door immediately.

After seeing that his cousin had been settled in the Shen family's villa in Shengjing, he was so angry that he took people directly to the Changning Marquis Mansion to demand an explanation and even smashed the door!

He had such a bad temper that if Lu Jing hadn't slipped away quickly and didn't stay in the Marquis' Mansion, he would have rushed in and beat him into a pig's head!

But it doesn’t matter. What kind of person is my cousin’s grandfather?

Since the Marquis' Mansion dared to do such a heartless thing, it should just prepare to bear the wrath of the Shen family!

"Thank you for your trouble." Shen Ruoyan's eyes were red and his voice was weak. It was obvious that he had not yet recovered from the blow.

Chun Xi followed suit, wiping away tears. "Madam has been working so hard in the Marquis' Mansion these past few years. From Old Madam Lu to the maids and servants, she has taken every care of everyone, fearing that they would be dissatisfied in the slightest!"

"But what? Madam has done so much, but what did she get in return?!"

Shen Ruoyan's experience is so heartbreaking that it makes anyone who hears it cry.

Especially Lu Yan, how outstanding he was in the past, but how miserable he is now.

He should have been a child of destiny, but he was rendered mute by his family elders. It's fine if he can't enter the imperial court, but with Madam Lu's attitude, how could he possibly inherit the Marquisate?!

The people have sharp eyes. Mrs. Lu did this simply to let the son of her concubine inherit the Marquis' Mansion.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t recognize it now, but what about in the future?

Anyway, everyone has arrived at the Marquis' Mansion, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?

After Qin Shaobei heard what Chun Xi said, he was so angry that his blood rushed to his head. He wished that those people in the Marquis' Mansion would get retribution right now!

However, he also knew that impulsiveness could easily lead to bad consequences, so he calmed down and said, "Don't worry, cousin. I'll let those people write the memorial again! I don't believe that with so many people impeaching him, the emperor can really turn a blind eye!"

After he finished speaking, he left in a hurry. Shen Mo had not yet arrived in Shengjing, so he was the only one who could take care of these things.

Shen Ruoyan looked at him gratefully until Qin Shaobei's figure disappeared, then he calmly said: "Regarding Lu Ankang, how are the arrangements going?"

When releasing the news this time, she deliberately had Lu Ankang's previous experience as an adopted son concealed, so as not to implicate Prince Shun's Mansion and cause more trouble.

So everyone outside thought that Lu Ankang was the concubine who was brought in under the name of a distant relative. As for Fang Rou... she didn't let anyone say that Fang Rou was the concubine.

Anyway, she is a mistress, so it doesn’t matter who this person is or whether she makes it public.

Chun Xi replied, "Everyone outside is denouncing Lu Ankang, saying that he is so cruel and ruthless at such a young age. Such a person has no right to inherit the Marquisate!"

The charge of murdering his own brother alone is enough to put Lu Ankang in great trouble!

The noble families in Shengjing want to protect something more the less they have.

Everyone knows that among aristocratic families, the competition for the position of heir is the most intense. Even if one is not qualified to inherit, there will still be intrigue and struggle for power.

What a brotherly relationship, it's something you only see once in a century!

Therefore, they cannot stand to see such a situation happen. Any case involving brothers killing each other will be dealt with severely. Lu Ankang's behavior has seriously touched their sore spot, and they will never let him go!

"If you continue to fan the flames, we don't have much time left."

The Prince of Huainan still petitioned to come to the capital. Even though he had been rejected by the Emperor once, he did not give up. The second petition had already been sent in expedited, a distance of eight hundred miles.

This day will soon be chaotic.

Before that, she had to hand over everything to Lu Yan.

There really isn't much time left for her.

Under Shen Ruoyan's secret manipulation, almost all the wind in Shengjing City was blowing towards the roof of Changning Marquis Mansion, and the house was about to be overturned!

Not only was Old Madam Lu accused of murdering her descendants, but also Lu Ankang, the child, was accused of being vicious. In an instant, the Changning Marquis Mansion became a rat crossing the street, and everyone wanted to kill it!

"Madam, what should we do now?" The maids were extremely anxious. Those who went out to buy things today came back and said that as soon as they went out to the street, people threw rotten vegetable leaves at them and shouted for Madam Lu to come out and confess her guilt!

It's really too rampant!

Old Madam Lu had not expected that things would turn out like this, even alarming the emperor.

Everything is because that old man Shen Mo is going to Beijing!

That was why she couldn't tolerate Lu Yan at the beginning, and now it has been proven that she was not wrong!

But compared to this, there is another thing that gives Mrs. Lu a headache.

"How's the situation with the Marquis?"

"This..." The nanny was a little embarrassed and looked at Madam Lu, not knowing whether she should say it.

Madam Lu was getting impatient. "Just say whatever you want to say. It has come to this point now. What else am I afraid to hear?!"

The nanny had no choice but to tell the truth: "The Marquis is still listless, saying that he has no attachment to this world anymore and wants to..."

"What do you want?" Mrs. Lu asked angrily.

“Yes, I want to become a monk!”

"Ridiculous!" Madam Lu slammed the table and stood up. She took several deep breaths but still couldn't calm down. "What is he going to do? Is he going to kill me?!"

At a time like this, not only does he not unite with me, but he actually does such a ridiculous thing!

Old Madam Lu felt that she must have owed Lu Jing in her previous life, so she came to pay off his debt in this life!

The nanny lowered her head and didn't dare to respond. It was not appropriate for her to interfere in the affairs of the grandparents and grandchildren.

They are all masters anyway, and servants like them have no right to discipline them.

After Shen Ruoyan left, Lu Jing seemed to have lost his soul, especially since it was so chaotic at that time that even Fang Rou took advantage of the chaos to run away!

She didn't even bother with Lu Ankang. By the time Lu Ankang found out about this, Fang Rou was nowhere to be found in the entire mansion...

"Mother doesn't want me anymore..."

He muttered to himself, finally realizing how much harm his actions had caused to Fang Rou.

Lu Ankang thought that no matter what he did, Fang Rou would forgive him and would give everything for him.

But Fang Rou told him with her actions - sincerity for sincerity, if there is no heart, then naturally there will be nothing.

In desperation, he went to find Lu Jing, wanting Lu Jing to save him.

However, Lu Jing just looked at him indifferently, "From now on, you are no longer my son. Your life or death has nothing to do with me. Just wish yourself the best."

He truly saw through the world and wanted to become a monk; it was not just a momentary impulse.

By the time Madam Lu and her men arrived, Lu Jing had already shaved his hair!

Looking at the shiny bald head in front of her, Mrs. Lu couldn't catch her breath and fainted!
