Chapter 263 The Emperor’s Thief

Chapter 263 The Emperor’s Thief
Lu Huainian took one look at this granddaughter and really didn't like her.

Not only because she was the child of a maid, but also because the woman who gave birth to her was a very scheming person.

"You go to the inn to stay first, and then return to Beijing in a while." Lu Huainian didn't want his wife to affect his relationship with the Jingzhou family, and just wanted to send them away quickly.

Cai suddenly burst into tears: "Master, I have worked so hard to find you, and this is how you treat me?"

Lu Yuanjin was furious and said angrily: "Father! Are you the head of the family? How could you abandon your legitimate wife and son to live a happy life with your concubine? My mother has not thought about food and tea these years, she only hopes that you will come home early. , and as a result, you are so happy here that you don’t even miss Shu anymore.”

"Okay! What do you want? Live here forever?" Lu Huainian interrupted his son's nagging impatiently.

Lu Yuanjin frowned and said, "We will be where you are, don't even think about leaving us alone!"

He has no choice, either his biological father will give him money to pay off the debt, or he will stay here and not leave.

It turned out that Lu Yuanjin was living and drinking in the capital, and was lured to a gambling house to gamble. When he lost, he took out a loan and owed the gambling house a large amount of usury.

Mrs. Cai sold her shop and farm in order to get her son's legs, but it was not enough.

Unexpectedly, the eldest and second masters did not even see each other, and only asked the housekeeper to send a thousand taels.

Mrs. Cai was so frightened that she went to the eldest and second masters of the Lu family, hoping that they could help pay off the debt.

When Lu Jingzhou saw his father leaving with the family, he felt upset and ordered the guards to guard the door. If they came again in the future, they would not be allowed to enter the yard.

The guard was also very ashamed. After clasping his fists and saluting, he guarded the door honestly.

Mrs. Cai had no choice but to secretly spend money to find someone to guide the way. The family left the capital through three city gates and came to Ansai to join Lu Huainian.

Lu Yuanjin was dissatisfied, but he also knew that he could only make other plans after settling down first.

Seeing Lu Jingzhou's hesitation, Chang'an said angrily: "If they settle here, I will have to take Xiangxiang to my father's place."

But this little money is not enough to pay interest for a few days. How can I pay back the debt?

Now that she is pregnant, she doesn't want to be killed one day, and her Xiangxiang can't stay out of the hospital forever.

Who would have thought that this heartless man actually wanted to drive them away.
The more Mrs. Cai thought about it, the sadder she became. Regardless of her dignity, she covered her face and cried bitterly in public.

Lu Huainian frowned and said, "Let's do this. I'll rent a yard in the city. You guys can move there first, but don't come here to disturb the Jingzhou family in the future."

Along the way, he had eaten and slept in the open air and was mentally stressed. He was so exhausted that he wished he could lie in bed and sleep for ten and a half days without getting up.

Of course Lu Jingzhou didn't want to keep his aunt's family here, but he couldn't forcefully drive them away in full view of everyone.

Yang quickly smoothed things over: "Chang'an, don't worry, those people are only living here temporarily. Jingzhou will definitely find a way to let them return to Beijing. You are still pregnant and will give birth in a few months. You must not travel long distances." "

The compound interest on those debts has exceeded 30,000 taels.

It just so happened that my mother had gone back to live with my father, and my twelve-year-old brother Xiao Shitou also went to the station, became his father's personal guard captain, and received the post of Hundred Households. I might as well go there, it might be safer than here.

Back in the house, Lu Jingzhou quickly checked on his wife's condition: "Did they hurt you?"

Song Xiyue was obedient, bowed to Lu Huainian Yingying, then blessed Lu Jingzhou, and led her daughter out.

Chang'an shook his head, patted the frightened Xiangxiang and asked, "Are you really going to let them live in Ansai City?"

Lu Jingzhou also pulled his wife and said, "Chang'an, I will send a few more people to protect you. You don't need to meet them. You can rest assured to raise the baby at home. As for that, let father take care of it."

Changan was silent.

She also knew that it would be difficult for Lu Jingzhou to drive away his aunt's mother's family, but that Song Xiyue was really a vicious person. Over the years, he had nothing to do with her, but the chains of fate brought them together again.

Chang'an had a hunch that Song Xiyue and the Cai family would definitely not settle down and would definitely cause trouble in the future.

I'm not afraid, but Xiangxiang is still young and lively, so how can I guard against other people's schemes day and night?

And she actually saw Song Chengye in the crowd. When he looked at her and Xiangxiang, his eyes were full of resentment and hatred.

Staying in the same city with such a group of people, Chang'an was worried that the food he bought would be poisoned.

In the following days, Mrs. Cai's family was quiet.

However, when they go shopping, they often use Lu Jingzhou's banner and claim to be Lu Jingzhou's closest relatives.

When the merchants learned that this family was indeed the prefect's direct mother and brother, they were very polite to them and allowed them to pay the bills, that is, they would take the things first and settle the accounts at the end of the month.

Lu Yuanjin was very familiar with these. He immediately took twenty pieces of high-quality silk silk from the silk shop and two high-quality jade pendants from the jade shop.

He also went to the gold and silver shop to get two sets of gold-encrusted headdresses for his daughter Lu Yun.

He would like to take more, but it's a pity that he can only pay so much in a month.

At the end of the month, shopkeepers from various businesses came to the prefect's door with their accounts to ask for money.

Chang'an didn't see them at all and asked Li Xing'er to come forward and blast them out.

In fact, she had known about what Lu Yuanjin had done for a long time, and had warned various shops not to give them credit without permission.

The result was that someone who didn't think it was a serious matter did it deliberately and came to the door with the account book in an attempt to challenge the prefect's bottom line.

Just because there are certain officials behind these shops, they want to ruin Lu Jingzhou's reputation and force him to leave Ansai City.

After all, Ansai's current situation is at its peak, and the people are getting richer and richer. As long as Lu Jingzhou leaves, someone will immediately replace him.

As expected, it didn't take long for someone to submit a memorial to the emperor, saying that Lu Jingzhou's family was preying on the people in Ansai, and even allowed his family to take valuables from shops without paying them.

The emperor picked up the memorial, looked at it, and asked the courtiers with a smile: "How do you think this matter should be handled?"

Someone immediately came forward and said: "I think that if the matter is true, Lu Jingzhou should go to Beijing to explain that it is really not suitable for officials from the fish and meat township to continue to stay in the Ansai border, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

Several people came forward to second the proposal.

But there are also many people who disagree.

Especially Wu Zhonglou and Zhang Sheng, they never believed that Lu Jingzhou could be such a person.

Moreover, the car dealership receives a large sum of money every year. How could Changan be so short-sighted as to take the three melons and two dates from the merchant?
Finally, the emperor threw these memorials aside and ordered his officials to investigate.

The result of the investigation was also expected. It was indeed Lu Jingzhou's immediate family members who took other people's things without paying them back.

The emperor was a thief and immediately asked the staff to transfer Lu Jingzhou to the more remote northwest to serve as the local magistrate.

When Lu Jingzhou received the transfer order, he almost laughed in anger.

The emperor's intention was obvious. He just wanted to take the opportunity to let himself and Chang'an expand his territory for him.

But how could Chang'an swallow this breath? Before leaving, he went to various waters to get back all the colored glaze he had thrown into the water.
