Chapter 58 Dad, Stop Occupying the Position

She would not stop it. Her father had no talent anyway. He worked himself to death every day and never spent enough time with his mother. It would be better for him to be dismissed from his official position.

You are already 58 years old and should have retired and enjoyed your life long ago. What's the point of occupying the official position?

Her father should also retire!

Young people should also be given opportunities to take the lead.

However, he would not let the Fourth Prince succeed easily.

Su Xianye was taken by her three sisters to visit jewelry shops, rouge shops, cloth shops, etc., making her life even more colorful. The sisters loved her very much.

Once, she met Su Xianxin and County Master Lan Xi who were shopping. Su Xianxin looked at Su Xianye and she was treated like a star. Whatever Su Xianye liked, her sisters would rush to buy it for her. She was so jealous of her happiness that she was going crazy.

The three sisters used to love Su Xianxin very much, but their younger brother had already told them about Su Xianxin's attempt to marry a rich and powerful man, otherwise it would not be their brother's wife.

So now when they see Su Xianxin, they pretend not to see her, and their hearts and eyes are full of love for Su Xianye.

Su Xianxin was so angry that she went back and started throwing things around. She was so mad!

Lu Zhanxing took Mu Qingli and his second brother-in-law Zhou Li to the farm to fish and hunt, and they lived a just as carefree and comfortable life.

Occasionally, Sun Qiming and a few of his friends would also come over, and the five of them would have a lot of fun.

As for her third brother-in-law Feng Chengyu, he secretly went to see his white moonlight Su Xianxin.

Just when everything was calm, something happened to Lu Jin, the second master of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion and the Minister of Works.

Because Lu Jin was a third-rank minister of the Ministry of Works, he was responsible for most of the renovation projects. The second prince had already married and moved out of the palace to build his own mansion, but the fourth prince and the fifth prince were also recently granted marriages, and the renovation of their mansions was also the responsibility of the Ministry of Works, so Lu Jin took it all in.

If he could satisfy the two princes, perhaps he could make further progress before he reaches the age of sixty.

He led the craftsmen from the Ministry of Works to diligently help the two princes renovate the new mansion, but unfortunately, it became a flaw that others could attack.

The newly replaced beams of the Fourth Prince's Mansion and the Fifth Prince's Mansion suddenly collapsed, and Lu Jin's subordinates later sued him for cutting corners and embezzling the money for building the princes' mansions.

After all, it is the prince's palace and an important project, and the cost is no less than tens of thousands of taels.

Lu Jin was thrown into prison and cried out that he was innocent.

But when the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture brought people to the mansion of Duke Anguo, the doorman was so scared that he hurried to report to Duke Anguo.

After all, this is the residence of Duke Anguo, and the governor of Shuntian Prefecture did not dare to act rashly and could only wait.

When the old Duke learned that his youngest son had made a mistake, he was stunned for a while.

He had originally planned to let his youngest son retire after working for another two years, but who could have known that this would happen?

He knew very well that no matter how mediocre his son was, he was still honest and would never dare to embezzle the money of the two princes. He sighed. After all, the Duke of Anguo's Mansion was a thorn in the eyes of the higher-ups. Even if his son was framed, there was nothing that could be done.

It would be better to take this opportunity to let the Duke of Anguo's Mansion keep a low profile. Emperor Qian would not kill his own son for his own sake.

At most he will be dismissed from office.

He waved his hand and asked Manager Yu to let the Shuntian prefect and others in.

At the same time, Lu Zhanxing used his spatial ability to flash into his father's study and put the account book under the books into the space. Since the Fourth Prince wanted to bring bad luck to his family, it would be unreasonable for him not to return the gift.

She put the account book that she had prepared long ago back in its place, then quickly left the study.

The prefect of Shuntian Prefecture brought his people to Lu Jin's study and saw that it was locked. He knew that study rooms were important official places and no one else could enter at will.

So he asked his men to break down the study door, then entered the study and began to search.

After a while, an account book was found among a pile of documents.

The Shuntian prefect opened it and read a few pages, then his expression became quite complicated, and then he left with his men.

After Mu Qingli learned that Lu Jin was imprisoned, she hurried to find Lu Zhanxing, and saw Lu Zhanxing still lying leisurely in the rocking chair, Tingxue and Yulu were feeding him fruit and massaging his legs, and there was also a musician playing the piano beside him. He really knew how to enjoy himself.

"Your father has been imprisoned, and you are still in the mood to relax here?"

He found that he still couldn't see through her. She seemed nonchalant about everything. Last time, she risked her life for her brother, but she didn't do anything when her father was imprisoned. Why was that?

Could it be that her father was no match for a cousin?

Lu Zhanxing looked up and said with a smile: "It's Mr. Mu, how about joining us?"

Mu Qingli really couldn’t understand. Wasn’t she worried at all?

Hearing this, Lu Zhanxing smiled and waved to the three maids. The maid who was playing the piano stopped, then left with the piano. Tingxue stopped feeding and went into the room to bring a chair for Mu Qingli, while Yu Lu poured tea.

"Could it be that the Second Young Master has already come up with a plan to deal with this?"

Lu Zhanxing just smiled and said, "No, my father is old and should have retired long ago. Didn't you see that my grandfather doesn't worry about it? If he wanted to protect my father, he would have done it long ago."

Even after retiring, he still has connections in the court.

Seeing that Mu Qingli seemed very worried about her father, she comforted him, "Don't panic, my father will be released soon."

The Lu family also owns half of the country. Even if his father did something treasonous, Emperor Qian had to keep it secret and dismiss him at most. Otherwise, wouldn't the old members of the Anguo Mansion be disheartened? How could they be willing to work for the Chu family?

Of course, the reborn Fourth Prince is another matter. As for the male protagonist, as long as he kills all the direct descendants of Duke Anguo and snatches the Molong Order, the Duke Anguo’s Mansion will naturally collapse.

But now, her grandfather is still here, and Mo Longling is also here, so Emperor Qian has some concerns.

The Black Dragon Order can not only put shackles on the Anguo Mansion, but of course it can also restrain the royal family.

Before ascending the throne, every emperor knew that the Lu family had a powerful force, but they did not know it was the Molong Order.

Although the Fourth Prince has been reborn, he has not yet ascended the throne, so naturally he does not know what power the Anguo Mansion has.

This is the reason why every generation of the Anguo Duke's Mansion can be safe and sound, and enjoy unlimited honor and favor.

In the book, the Fourth Prince obtained the Black Dragon Order by relying on the male protagonist's halo, which is why the Anguo Mansion collapsed.

In this life, as long as she exists, she will not give the Fourth Prince this opportunity.

Hearing this, Mu Qingli was even more puzzled, "Now only the second master and the eldest young master are serving in the court in the Anguo Mansion, shouldn't they be protected?"

Lu Zhanxing glanced at him and said, "You don't think that the Anguo Mansion will decline without my father and elder brother serving in the court, do you?"

Mu Qingli was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that the Duke of Anguo’s Mansion was a founding hero!

How can it be compared with other Anguo Mansions?

He quickly stood up and apologized: "It was Mu who was shallow!"

Lu Zhanxing waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's human nature. After all, everyone thinks so."

In the court, when the prefect of Shuntian handed the account book to Emperor Qian, Emperor Qian also had a complicated expression.

If I deal with Lu Jin, it will be a big deal...
