Lu Zhen's heart thumped, and he immediately felt that something was wrong.
He felt that whatever he was afraid of would come true!
In the past, when the Emperor was not in the capital, no matter how lawless his son was, he could still think of a way to settle it.
Now that the Emperor had returned to the capital, what could be hidden from the Emperor's eyes and ears in the capital?
It would be fine if the emperor did not pay attention to it. Once he did, it would be a monstrous disaster!
Lu Zhen pushed the concubine beside him over, put on his clothes, and walked out of the bathroom. When he saw the butler, he asked without a word,
"What happened? Tell me clearly!”
The butler said with trepidation,
"Young Master, he's been detained!"
Lu Zhen's mind buzzed as he subconsciously asked,
"Who detained him? Did he offend a prince or an heir?”
The butler shook his head and said,
"Neither. Young Master destroyed the Carefree Restaurant and was detained by the owner of the restaurant. Moreover, the owner broke Young Master's leg.”
Lu Zhen was shocked and cried out involuntarily,
"Carefree Tower? He destroyed the Carefree Tower? How dare this unfilial child!"
Then, he suddenly reacted and looked at the butler.
"What did you just say? My son's leg was broken?"
The butler wiped the sweat off his forehead and nodded.
"Yes, the lady boss of the Wangyou Restaurant ordered people to break both of Young Master's legs. At the same time, she also asked Old Master to bring a million taels to Wangyou Restaurant to redeem him. Otherwise…"
"Otherwise what?"
"Otherwise, they will feed Young Master to the dogs!”
"Hiss!"
Lu Zhen gasped.
He knew that Xu Miaojin, the owner of Wangyou Restaurant, would really dare to do such a thing.
Back then, when the Carefree Tower was just established in the capital, many rich playboys in the capital were attracted by the lady boss's beauty. Among them were many princes and princes with status.
But what happened to those people in the end?
Which one of them didn't get rebuffed at Wangyou Pavilion?
The most famous one was the son of a prince who was chased by Xu Miaojin's three dogs for three streets. He was bitten all over his body, but not a single vital part was injured.
In order to seek justice for his son, the prince went straight to the capital to meet the emperor.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Di did not even see him, so he chased the prince back to his fief. At the same time, he also issued an order to question him.
Your son dared to tease my sister-in-law. I'm already showing him mercy by not punishing him, and you actually dare to ask me for an explanation?
Only then did the prince realize who his son was teasing.
After returning to his fief dejectedly, the prince beat the prince half to death!
Of all the people you can tease, you went to tease the Emperor's wife and sister. Are you finding it too burdensome to have your head on your neck?
If you think it's a burden, just cut it yourself. Why do you have to implicate your father?
No matter what, from then on, the Carefree Tower and Xu Miaojin became famous in the capital after a single battle. No one dared to cause trouble in the Carefree Tower anymore.
What Lu Zhen did not expect was that his son, Lu Xiong, could offend anyone but this lady. Wasn't he courting death?
However, Lu Zhen could not really ignore his son.
It was not good to have a son at an old age. He only had one son. When he heard that his son's legs were broken, it was impossible for him not to be furious.
It was just that he really didn't dare to provoke that person from the Forgotten Worry Tower.
Moreover, the other party wanted him to bring a million taels of silver to redeem him. This was the most troublesome problem.
Money was not a problem for Lu Zhen.
The problem was that he couldn't afford it!
If he did, then his official position would basically be over.
"What should we do?"
Lu Zhen muttered to himself and fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, a person's shadow flashed across his mind.
"That's right! How could you forget about that master?"
Lu Zhen's eyes lit up. Although he couldn't afford to offend Xu Miaojin, it didn't mean that others couldn't!
Xu Miaojin was only the Emperor's sister-in-law, but that person was the Emperor's son.
Comparing the two, it was self-evident who was more important!
Giving one million taels of silver to Xu Miaojin was definitely courting death, but giving it to that master was not a problem at all!
Thinking of this, Lu Zhen already had a plan in his heart!
