"absurd!"
Lu Chongyuan was furious when he heard this, flicked his sleeves and said angrily: "This condition is absolutely impossible!"
"If you want the Lu family's collection of books, I can give you a hundred volumes to choose from. Sanlang can also kneel down in front of the Tang Mansion and admit his mistake as you wish. In addition, the Lu family is willing to repay the debt with gold and silver. , I will repay you double the market price, and you will never suffer a loss in money."
"But the Lu family will never agree to what you just mentioned!"
If half of the books in the collection were really given to Song Tangning, they would be bones and blood.
Lu Chongyuan tried his best to suppress his anger and said patiently: "If Miss Song is willing, in addition to money, I can also compensate you with some precious things, which will definitely be as good as those you gave to the Lu family."
"Do you think the children of this Governor's family are interested in your things, or do they lack your money?" Xiao Yan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly sneered, "Is Lu Zhongshu looking down on this Governor?"
"three times……"
Seeing Xiao Yan's face full of sarcasm, Song Tangning just looked at him silently without saying a word. Lu Chongyuan gritted his teeth and said, "Five times. The Lu family is willing to repay five times the price of what they took away, all in cash, without any default."
After Lu Chongyuan finished speaking, seeing that Xiao Yan was still sarcastic, he couldn't help but his face darkened.
"President Xiao, I have repeatedly given in, just to settle the matter, but you should also know that the Lu family has a bottom line."
"No matter how precious Miss Song's things are, they are not irredeemable for gold and silver. Five times the price is enough to offset the value attached to them by Taifu Rong. Even if it comes to His Majesty, no one will say that the Lu family has treated her badly."
"I have already given in to the extreme. If Miss Song is still unwilling, then just go ahead and file a lawsuit. The Lu family will not really be afraid of her."
Five times the price would be painful even if the Lu family took it out at once, but compared to the collection of books, it was the limit of what Lu Chongyuan could pay.
After Lu Chongyuan finished speaking, his heart calmed down. If Xiao Yan and Song Tangning refused to give up, then let's start a fight. He would never let Xiao Yan take Song Tangning's affairs seriously and force the Lu family to give in.
Xiao Yan naturally saw the cruel look in Lu Chongyuan's eyes, and he chuckled: "Since you are not afraid, then Lu Zhongshu please come back."
"you!"
Lu Chongyuan said in a cold voice: "Are you really going to use Mrs. Song to take your personal revenge, and both the Lu family and the Lu family will suffer?!"
As he spoke, he looked at Song Tangning: "Mrs. Song, Xiao Yan has a personal grudge against my Lu family. He wants to vent his anger. I understand, but you have no life-or-death feud with the Lu family. You really want to risk your own reputation and future. To become a stepping stone for others to compete with the Lu family?"
He just had to tell her clearly that Xiao Yan was using her.
Xiao Yan's face was stained with anger, and his sword eyes turned cold: "Is Lu Zhongshu instigating this just because he can't be coerced?"
"My father is just telling the truth. Do you dare to say that you are not seeking personal revenge?"
Lu Zhao was full of sarcasm at the side: "Song Tangning, after all, you have called me uncle for a few years, and you almost got married to Sanlang. My uncle advises you, don't let this eunuch deceive you."
"He may not be sincere in his treatment of you. He may be just trying to take advantage of you by protecting you. When the time comes, both you and the Lu family will suffer, and this shameless eunuch will get an advantage..."
boom!
Xiao Yan's face turned cold and he was about to speak when suddenly he saw Song Tangning standing up beside him. She grabbed the object in her hand and threw it towards Lu Zhao.
Lu Zhaowan didn't expect that Song Tangning would make a sudden move, and he was hit in the face off guard. He screamed in pain, and the brocade box that flew over fell to the ground with a "bang" and broke into two halves, taking with it the contents inside. The nine-tailed phoenix hairpin also rolled out.
"Song Tangning!"
Lu Zhao's voice was sharp with pain.
Lu Chongyuan was also startled by her sudden outburst. He looked up and saw that the little girl who was smiling just now had cold and angry eyes.
"Is this the virtue of your Lu family? You are the boss of the Ministry of Industry, and if you open your mouth or shut up, you will expose people's shortcomings. It doesn't matter that my brother is disabled. In my eyes, he is nobler than all of you Lu family!"
Song Tangning looked at them with sarcasm: "You, the Lu family, want to save face and protect the queen and her son. You just open your mouth and make conditions casually. When I mention it, you become angry."
"If you can't afford it, why do you brag about Haikou and make people laugh? If the queen hadn't gifted her with a phoenix hairpin and begged me to spare the fourth prince, and said that the Lu family was willing to sincerely apologize, do you think I would let this matter go?! "
Lu Chongyuan's expression changed: "Queen?"
Song Tangning said coldly: "Lu Zhongshu doesn't recognize Queen Fengchai?"
Lu Chongyuan lowered his head suddenly, and then he realized that the thing that fell out of the brocade box that Song Tangning had just smashed out was actually the phoenix hairpin he had seen the queen wearing on her head when he entered the palace this morning.
Song Tangning's face was filled with frost: "If the queen hadn't gifted her with a phoenix hairpin and begged her in every possible way, saying that as long as I didn't involve the fourth prince, even if the Lu family didn't want to give up, she would have terminated the engagement with Lu Zhinian on my behalf and asked him to kowtow to me and admit his mistake. I will never let my reputation be damaged, and the Lu family is willing to agree to whatever I want. Considering what the Lu family did to me in the past, I will never let you go."
"But who knew you were so shameless? In this case, why are you here? You can go back directly. I will go to the Qinglong Bell early tomorrow morning to ask for an audience with His Majesty. I want to see how shameless your Lu family is. After my grandfather left his relics, he still came to humiliate the owner!"
After hearing Song Tangning's words, Lu Chongyuan turned pale with anger and almost fainted looking at Feng Chai.
What a queen, she is very good! !
She actually came to the Lu family to "discuss countermeasures" on the first step, and then sold the Lu family on the other hand.
She is really a good queen of the Lu family! !
Xiao Yan stretched out his hand to pull Song Tangning who was full of anger, stood up and stood beside her: "Lu Chongyuan, you don't need to hold Tangning hostage. I probably forgot to tell you that when I sent the writ to the palace today, I asked your majesty for it. A grace decree."
"Tang Ning is grateful for Taifu Rong's desire to educate all people, and is willing to build an academy in the capital in the name of Taifu Rong. At that time, the Lu family will return the things that were swindled from her, along with all the ancient books that Taifu Rong left behind to teach. It was sent to the academy for students all over the world to borrow. His Majesty appreciated Tang Ning's pure and filial heart, and gifted the palace with thousands of books. He also erected a literary monument in front of the academy with his holy grace."
"For the sake of the Queen, Tang Ning will not pursue the matter with the Lu family. She is willing to put the matter aside and make it clear to His Majesty that she is willing to engrave the Lu family's good deeds of donating books on the Wende Monument, so that you, as the head of civil servants, can do it for you. The college is inscribed and named.”
"But since you, the Lu family, don't want this good reputation and have to quarrel with him, then please go back. Tomorrow morning at the court, I will personally discuss with you in front of all the ministers what Taifu Rong left behind." Whether the thing is worth its weight in gold or silver.”
After Xiao Yan finished speaking, he said coldly:
"Come here, see the guests off!!"
