Chapter 629: Looking for Trouble

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Minister Lu didn’t particularly like King Xiaoyao. When he saw King Xiaoyao approaching, he only raised an eyebrow and said, “When did the idle King Xiaoyao start frequenting my residence? What brings you here?”

In truth, the actual residence of Minister Lu was located within the imperial city. The place outside was simply Minister Lu’s personal mansion. However, he intentionally made such a statement to assert his identity and engage in conversation with King Xiaoyao.

He never spoke of personal relationships with officials from the court. Regardless of the occasion, as long as the other party was an official, he always spoke from the standpoint of the Chief Minister.

This was to remind himself not to make mistakes.

King Xiaoyao exclaimed before saying, “Minister Lu, don’t panic. I’m only here to watch the show today. Seeing that your Young Master is in such a miserable state, I’m relieved.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding people were surprised. What did King Xiaoyao mean?

He was relieved to hear that the Young Master was in a miserable state? Could it be that the person Young Master had offended was actually King Xiaoyao? Was that why Old Master was so angry?

Thinking about it this way, it made sense. King Xiaoyao was the most special prince in the entire Great Chang. Those who had offended King Xiaoyao previously had either been fired, exiled, or died suddenly. Some of their homes had even been confiscated. The most serious crime was that they had committed a rebellion and their three generations had been executed.

Although evidence was eventually found against those individuals, no one could guarantee that there were no ulterior motives.

What if those were just accusations?

Just as everyone was guessing, Lu Yu was also puzzled. When did he offend King Xiaoyao?

“To be honest, your Young Master hasn’t done anything particularly egregious. It was just a minor act of suppression during my distant cousin’s journey to the imperial examination. He dragged the other party to court in an attempt to instill a fear in him for the rich and influential and prevent him from achieving the top rank,” King Xiaoyao said. With each word he uttered, the expressions of those present changed slightly. He was pleased to see their reactions and continued in a leisurely manner, “Unfortunately, in today’s imperial examinations, the highest achievement is only the Provincial Top Scholar. If it were more challenging, perhaps my distant cousin could have become a State Top Scholar. Don’t you think so?”

Everyone:”…”

They didn’t know how to respond to such words.

Moreover, wasn’t it rumored that King Xiaoyao was a serious person who cherished his words like gold? Why was he chattering like a chatterbox today?

Furthermore, since it was just a matter concerning a distant cousin, was it necessary for him to come here deliberately and speak so much about it?

At this moment, King Xiaoyao was also thinking to himself, “The distance between my King Xiaoyao Estate, Duke Yong Estate, and the inner palace is quite far. Isn’t that considered a distant nephew?”

There was nothing wrong with his words.

Minister Lu: “Then according to Lord Xiaoyao’s intentions, what more can we do to satisfy your desire to seek justice for your distant cousin? If you wish, we can impartially administer the law and bring him to court again, allowing the magistrate to make the judgment. Our family has no objections whatsoever.”

“There’s no need to go through so much trouble. 1 think you handled it quite well. I’ve already said that I’m only here to watch the show.” King Xiaoyao suddenly slapped his forehead as if he remembered something and said, “1 remember now. Actually, I came to request something from Minister Lu. As you oversee the selection of talents throughout the realm, I have a remarkably talented nephew who will surely achieve great things in the future. I was wondering if Minister Lu could help me consider what kind of talent would be suitable as his personal attendant.”

After speaking, his gaze drifted seemingly absentmindedly towards Lu Yu.

Everyone:”…”

Minister Lu:”…”

Although no one said a word, their expressions clearly conveyed their thoughts: King Xiaoyao, you never cease to amaze us. You’re actually suggesting that the grandson of an internal censor be appointed as a personal attendant. How audacious!

At this moment, King Xiaoyao’s thoughts were very simple. Regardless of whether his nephew was going to ascend the throne in the future or just become an ordinary official…

Having the uncooperative Minister Lu on board and pulling his nephew into the boat would undoubtedly be of great assistance, given his nephew’s intelligence.

As his uncle, he would give his nephew a small gift to aid him in his future career.

Moreover, after this incident, everyone in Wanning City would know that even if they offended Qin Huai slightly, they might be reduced to attendants and servants. Wouldn’t that be more effective than directly slapping their faces?

He believed that he had provided his nephew with a significant opportunity..
