MTL - Portable Space: The Peasant Princess

Chapter 1316 I didn’t even bring half a penny of dowry.

"snort!"

Lu Li sneered, turned to face the crowd and said, "Do you still remember the Tianxiang Building opposite?"

Someone said: "Tianxiang Tower? Of course I remember, I went to have a meal last month, but wasn't it already smashed by thieves?"

"well said!"

Lu Li clapped his hands and said with an evil smile: "That's right, he was hit by a thief. This thief..."

He turned back and glanced at Lu Yuan who said nothing, sneered disdainfully, then turned to face the crowd and said, "This thief is sent by the Prince Yi you call him!"

 “That’s nonsense, how could Prince Yi do such a thing?”

“That’s right, are you just talking nonsense? Prince Yi is the God of War of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He is dedicated to protecting the people and the country. How could he destroy Tianxiang Tower?”

Lu Li's smile dropped, and he said angrily: "What he admitted personally, is it still false?"

"No way?"

Everyone looked at Lu Yuan, but saw that he looked calm from beginning to end, neither admitting nor denying.

 Everyone was suddenly hesitant for a moment.

Someone hesitated and said, "Could it be...that it was really Prince Yi who smashed it?"

Lu Yuan looked at Lu Li coldly for a while, and then said softly: "My good brother, he used my money to open a restaurant opposite my restaurant, and deliberately lowered the price of vegetables. What is the meaning of this?"

 “Joke, your money?”

Lu Li snorted coldly, "I didn't take half a penny from you. That money was given to me by my mother."

 “Did your mother give it to you?”

Lu Yuan chuckled, "When your mother came in, she didn't even bring half a penny of dowry. You said your mother gave you the money. So, where did your mother get the money?"

When everyone heard the words, they immediately started whispering among themselves.

“So this is Mr. Lu?”

“Didn’t you hear Prince Yi call him younger brother? It must be true. When I was in the capital last year, I heard that this man had a fight with the son of the Prime Minister’s Mansion over the oiran.”

“Is there such a thing?” Someone said in disbelief: “I didn’t expect that the same sons of General Lu could be so different!”

“It’s so shameless to use Prince Yi’s money to open a restaurant opposite Qingfeng Building.”

"His mother is the same. I heard she is the niece of the late Mrs. Lu. The Liu family's original family background was not bad, right? Why didn't they even get a dowry? She's not even as good as a married woman from the countryside!"

“I heard that Qingfeng Tower belongs to the Crown Prince, but I didn’t expect that it actually belongs to Prince Yi!”

 Some people lamented: "The rumors are not credible!"

I thought that if I told Lu Yuan's crimes in public, everyone would scold Lu Yuan or hate him.

 But it didn’t happen. In the end, the person who was laughed at turned out to be me!

Lu Li was so angry that he stared for a long time before saying, "Don't listen to his nonsense. My mother gave me the money, and my mother's money was given by my father. It's my business to open a restaurant wherever I like."

Some people felt unfair for Lu Yuan and said: "This man is really heartless. If nothing else, Prince Yi is his brother after all, right? How could someone open a restaurant opposite his brother's restaurant and deliberately lower the price of vegetables to attract us? In the past, it was simply too much!”

Everyone nodded, and someone echoed: "Even Prince Yi is so pitiful, why do you have such a white-eyed wolf brother!"

“He looks like a human or a demon dog. I never thought he would be this kind of person!”

Lu Yuan didn't need to speak, Lu Li couldn't find any trouble, and he was scolded by all the guests. Lu Li was so angry that he almost flipped the table on the spot.
