Chapter 304: The Wealthy Idler Liu Wenzhou
The name Liu San is not really a name, it just indicates Liu Wenzhou’s ranking in his family.
The Liu family has been rooted in the Great Liang capital city for over a hundred years.
Liu Wenzhou’s grandfather was the imperial tutor of the current dynasty, his father was an official at the Department of Foreign Affairs holding the rank of Shaoqing (a mid-level official), and his elder brother also worked in the Ministry of Revenue. Several generations of the family have been government officials, all known for being upright and honest supporters of the emperor.
Liu Wenzhou, being an illegitimate son, had always lived idly at home.
The Liu family is very strict about family rules, which state that every Liu family member would rather be a wealthy idler than engage in any criminal or unethical acts. So for the lazy Liu Wenzhou, these rules have been his lifelong shield of nobility and comfort!
But that was in the past.
His grandfather was a senior official spanning two dynasties and had once even instructed His Majesty, the current Emperor, who trusted and respected him greatly. Whenever there was an important matter, His Majesty would discuss it with Liu Wenzhou’s grandfather.
Therefore, when Liu Wenzhou received an order from his grandfather to follow a merchant caravan, Liu Wenzhou’s first reaction was that this must be a directive from His Majesty himself.
