It's broken, and was picked up by a femme fatale

Chapter 148 What the hell am I going to arrange?
On the way back, Lu Yuan rode a tall horse and walked side by side with Gao Mingna.

"Why don't you take care of your mother-in-law?

Judging from her condition, she doesn’t seem to be doing very well.”

Gao Mingna said while looking at Lu Yuan beside her.

Lu Yuan shook his head and said:
“No, she’s not sick or injured, she just had her blood drawn by the demon king.

She is really too weak, so don't disturb her at this time, let her rest more."

Listening to Lu Yuan's words, Gao Mingna nodded.

After Lu Yuan finished speaking, he looked at Gao Mingna and said:
"Why are you still following me?

Shouldn't you be busy with something else?"

Gao Mingna sighed and said:

“I have to go back to see your wife, too.

I have kept it a secret from her for so many years, so now I have to go back and explain it to her face to face."

Well, that’s indeed the case.

Lu Yuan looked at Gao Mingna curiously and said:
“But then again, how did you figure it out?

Didn't you pretend to be mysterious by not saying this or that every day? "

Gao Mingna couldn't help but roll her eyes coquettishly at Lu Yuan's words and said:

"I find that you are really an ungrateful person.

What do you mean I was pretending to be mysterious every day?
I didn't keep you from knowing my affairs just to protect you.

Regarding the things we talked about last night, do you think that if it doesn't work out in the end, will you be in trouble?"

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows and said:

"Then why are you saying it now?"

Gao Mingna, who was riding on a steed, shrugged slightly and said:
"It seems like it's useless to keep hiding this kind of thing.

If I still fail in this big matter, it will be useless no matter how hard I try to hide your identities."

"Besides, you all already know my identity, so I naturally can't hide it from my eldest sister anymore."

Lu Yuan didn't have much to say about this, he just nodded.

At this moment, Gao Mingna suddenly remembered something and looked at Lu Yuan and said:

“By the way, the imperial envoy’s business is about to begin.

Gotta get that guy out of here.

I have received news that this guy has begun to secretly deal with the Yanxiang Society."

Listening to Gao Mingna's words, Lu Yuan said curiously:
"Then what are you going to do?"

Gao Mingna turned her head and looked at Lu Yuan and said:

“It’s still the same method we used before.

You can find some people or just let my people make trouble and protest privately.

Make some of his affairs bigger so that he and his men can't handle the case.

And I secretly submitted several reports to the old emperor.

It won’t be long before he is transferred back.”

Listening to Gao Mingna's words, Lu Yuan nodded.

Lu Yuan didn't need to think too much about this kind of thing. After all, Gao Mingna was also smart. Or if Lu Yuan still had to figure out a solution for this matter, then Lu Yuan would not team up with Gao Mingna.

"But as for you, I really didn't expect you to agree to me so readily.

What do you think?
Why did you agree to me so readily?

Do you trust me so much?"

Gao Mingna looked at Lu Yuan standing aside and asked curiously.

Regarding this matter, Lu Yuan just responded casually:
"Didn't you say that? We are the same kind of people. If we are the same kind of people, isn't this normal?"

But Gao Mingna shook her head and said:

"We are the same kind of people, that's right, but there are still some differences.

The reason I did this was because I wanted to seek justice for my mother.

If it weren't for this, no matter how much I wanted to change, there wouldn't be enough motivation in the world.

So, although we are the same kind of people, my initial purpose in doing this was for my mother.

how about you?
Why would you do such a thing?"

This matter is hard to say.

There is a saying that those who have no money want to be rich, and those who have money want to have power.

And those who have power want to leave their names in history.

It can be said that everyone has his or her own pursuit at every stage.

When Lu Yuan first arrived at the mine, all he wanted was to have money.

But since he followed Aunt Qiaoer home, Lu Yuan has become rich and powerful.

Of course, at that time, I wasn’t really thinking about changing the world.

At that time, all I wanted was to have some fun and enjoy life.

In other words, I have never been a superior person on Earth, so I want to be one here first.

But this thing is really fun at the beginning.

But it soon became less enjoyable.

What is this thing like? It's like cheating in a game.

It is indeed exciting at the beginning, but after a few times, most of the excitement will disappear.

To be precise, I don't have much pursuit.

Later on, it was the time when we were suppressing bandits in Liangshan.

Watching the villagers being tortured by the bandits beyond recognition.

Watching that beautiful young girl being treated like a pig or a dog.

I still feel bad.

In fact, everyone has empathy.

It’s like you see a seven or eight-year-old white-haired grandfather on the street in the hot summer, setting up a stall alone and selling his own fruits or vegetables.

If you don't have money and ability, then even if you do see it you can only pretend not to see it.

But if you have the ability, I believe most people will help this old man.

I can't say that this kind of thing moves myself, but anyway, I will feel better if I do it.

There is a saying that goes, "If you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the world."

It's okay if you don't have the ability, but if you have the ability and don't do that kind of thing, you will always feel weird.

Or maybe it could be said that if you as a human being don't do this kind of thing, you will feel uncomfortable.

Or is this just another version of, with great power comes great responsibility?
Anyway, this is roughly what Lu Yuan’s mental journey was like.

Especially what Lu Yuan did was a win-win situation.

If you rely solely on your own heart, many things will not last long.

When you have nothing to do every day, do charity work. When you have nothing to do every day, help this and that.

No one can do this. The person who has the ability to do such a thing must be the legendary Virgin Mary.

But this is not the case for the vast majority of people.

But what Lu Yuan does is different. Not only can he make a lot of money for himself, but he can also make the people outside the Great Wall live better, or in other words, live with more dignity and be more like human beings.

If that’s the case, why doesn’t Lu Yuan do it?
People still need to have goals.

Of course, given Lu Yuan’s current condition, he can actually lie down.

However, lying flat is a technical job for most people.

Because lying flat is actually not that easy to do.

It's like what. It's like telling an old man at home that you are so old, you should stop working, just rest and play every day.

But generally speaking, this old man can't rest.

He would feel uncomfortable if he didn't do something during the day, in other words, he was bored.

What's more, Lu Yuan couldn't lie down completely.

This happened one after another and never stopped.

And all of this is due to lack of strength.

You dealt with the Yu Ma Society’s affairs today, and an old eunuch will come tomorrow.

You said you had just established a good relationship with the old eunuch, and tomorrow the emperor's illegitimate daughter will come.

The emperor's illegitimate daughter had not yet been dealt with, and another imperial envoy arrived.

This is actually normal. After all, you are in this position now and you have run such a big business, so there must be all kinds of things coming to you.

In that case, let’s do something big.

Directly ascend to heaven in one step!
The most important point is that as a time traveler, you naturally have a big goal.

Or rather, pursuit.

No one is without pursuit and purpose, as long as they are normal people.

At this time, some people will definitely be dissatisfied.

He said, "Oh, I don't have any pursuits. I just want to live a life of idleness and wait for death."

Or I just want to win tens of millions in the lottery, live off the interest for the rest of my life, and then lie back and relax.

Then again, if you want to win tens of millions in the lottery, isn’t that also your pursuit and goal?

As a time traveler, Lu Yuan would definitely not be bothered by just winning tens of millions in the lottery.

After all, everyone's pursuit is based on his current situation.

If you only earn a few thousand dollars a month, then you may just want to buy a family car worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

But if you earn tens of thousands of dollars a month, then you may want to buy a BBA worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

If you earn hundreds of thousands a month, then you might want to buy a Bentley or a Porsche worth millions.

So, this is what Lu Yuan is pursuing now.

This is also Lu Yuan’s entire psychological journey.

However, Lu Yuan definitely cannot tell these things to others. After all, even if he tells them, others won’t understand.

Lu Yuan couldn't tell Gao Mingna that he was a time traveler and that he had a bunch of system abilities with him, so he wanted to try a challenge?
This matter definitely cannot be talked about, so Lu Yuan could only laugh and say:
"Because I think I have some skills, so I want to give it a try."

This excuse is actually reasonable, and basically all men think so.

We can get some clues about this from novels on Earth.

For example, novels for women are basically about love and romance.

Of course, this doesn't mean all of them, just that the vast majority are like this.

But if you are reading a novel oriented towards men, then there is basically no escape, you either have to become the Supreme Immortal Emperor or conquer the world.

Anyway, if your goal is not to become the strongest, then you basically shouldn't hang out in the male channel.

That's pretty much what it means.

Gao Mingna did not comment on Lu Yuan's statement.

Maybe, maybe that's what Lu Yuan thought.

Maybe Lu Yuan has other ideas.

However, these things were not particularly important to Gao Mingna, and she was just asking out of curiosity.

For Gao Mingna, as long as Lu Yuan was willing to help her, that was enough. Nothing else mattered at all.

"What are you going to do after you drive that imperial envoy out?"

Lu Yuan turned and looked at Gao Mingna and asked.

Speaking of this, Gao Mingna took a deep breath, looked ahead with a deep look in her eyes and said:

“Seize power.”

Lu Yuan knew about this because it had been mentioned before. Lu Yuan was just curious and asked:

"Can you rely on your own more than a thousand people?"

After Lu Yuan finished speaking, Gao Mingna turned to look at Lu Yuan and said with some amusement:

"Have you still not been able to fully accept the fact that I am the emperor's illegitimate daughter?"

After hearing this, Lu Yuan suddenly realized.

Yes.

Gao Mingna is now working for the old emperor. She is the old emperor's person, and the old emperor's power must be behind this.

It’s true.

Gao Mingna has too many ID cards, and sometimes it is easy to overlook other identities.

If Gao Mingna could successfully seize power, then the King outside the Pass would be Gao Mingna.

As long as Gao Mingna pretends to obey for the next year or two and gives Lu Yuan some time to develop, the people outside the Great Wall will have the capital to compete with the imperial court.

It’s just that…

"But then again, if the old emperor takes back the military power outside the Great Wall, will he really give it to you directly?"

Lu Yuan looked at Gao Mingna curiously and asked.

Gao Mingna looked at Lu Yuanwei and said:

"What if?
It’s better to keep it outside the customs than to find someone to take care of it, right?
It can't be that the old emperor himself went outside the Great Wall to manage the situation, right?

Especially the generals outside the pass, I am familiar with them. If I have to find someone to manage them, it must be me.

If it was someone else, I’m afraid they wouldn’t be able to keep him here.”

Listening to Gao Mingna's words, Lu Yuan nodded but didn't say much.

After Gao Mingna finished speaking, she was silent for a few seconds, and then suddenly said:
“But even if the old emperor doesn’t give me the military power outside the Great Wall, I still have a way to take it away.

In other words, even if I am not the general in name, I must be the one in private.”

Seeing Gao Mingna so confident, Lu Yuan didn't say much.

The things here are too complicated, and Lu Yuan couldn’t understand them all even if he asked.

Anyway, since Gao Mingna is so confident, just believe her.

There was no words for the rest of the journey.

Around the morning of the third day, Lu Yuan and his convoy entered the territory of Taining City.

I felt something strange after coming in.

Why is there no one in these fields?

Now is the spring sowing time. If we don’t sow now, there will be no food in the future.

Where is this person?
When everyone was full of questions, it was almost time for lunch when they finally arrived at Taining City.

After coming in, Lu Yuan, Gao Mingna and the others were a little confused.

Taining City is a bit chaotic now.

Countless people gathered on the main road of Taining City, holding banners and shouting slogans.

Listening to the slogans these people were shouting, they were basically directed at the imperial envoy.

I won’t tell you what they shouted, it was all dirty words, not very nice.

But the meaning is basically to tell this imperial envoy to get out of here immediately.

Looking at this scene, Gao Mingna, who was standing beside him, had a puzzled look on her face. She turned to look at Lu Yuan and said:

"You arranged all this?

You have already started, why didn't you tell me?"

Lu Yuan blinked.

What the hell am I going to do?
