The evil sister is in charge, and the mother is getting married

Chapter 224 Idiot
Qiao Wenyuan received Sheng Wanqiu's hint and of course understood what it meant. Provoking someone was the most effective method for this old man.

"Get lost! What the hell! Isn't it just teaching two kids martial arts? It's not like I haven't taught them before!"

"A gentleman's word is as good as gold. It's a deal!" Sheng Wanqiu looked at Lu Heng with a suppressed smile. This old man really couldn't be provoked.

Lu Heng:!!!
royal palace.

"Mother, I heard that the emperor gave the entire responsibility for this gold mine matter to that bitch Lu Lingyun. Not only did he not let his younger brother, but he didn't even let his other brothers get involved. What do you think the emperor meant by this?"

"Mother, could it be that Father is planning to make her the Empress, just like Dongxu?"

Lu Lingshi was secretly trying to create hatred for Lu Lingyun. She said this on purpose because she knew that her mother valued her younger brother the most.

"Snapped!"

As a result, what Lu Lingshi waited for was not her mother's rage, but a solid slap in the face. She was caught off guard and was directly slapped to the ground. It can be seen that Concubine De used all her strength in this slap.

"Put your little thoughts aside. Don't think I don't know what you're thinking."

"If you want to compete with Lu Lingyun, Mother won't stop you, but if you have evil intentions towards your own people, don't blame me, your mother, for being cruel!"

"It's okay that you're not as skilled as others. If you dare to fight Lu Lingyun to the end, maybe Mother will look upon you with a higher regard. These little tricks of yours are really not enough. Get out and stop getting in the way here!"

Concubine De knows her daughter too well. She is stupid and unaware of it. She even wants to use her to deal with Lu Lingyun. Does she really think she can't see it?

No matter who found this gold mine and who was in full control of it, as long as it was her son who ascended the throne in the end, everything would belong to her son in the end.

Lu Lingshi covered her face which was hurt by Concubine De's beating, hatred welling up in her eyes. Why was she better than her brother in everything, but her mother couldn't even look at her?
If Sheng Wanqiu were here, she would definitely tell her: Silly girl, what else could it be? Of course it's because you have two taels less meat than your brother!

Lian Qiao walked up to Lu Lingshi and tried to help her up from the ground, but Lu Lingshi, who was furious, pushed her away fiercely.

"Since mother dislikes me so much, I won't be a nuisance to you anymore!"

"I just want to tell you to stop daydreaming! I'll take my leave!"

Lu Lingshi gritted her teeth. Since the emperors of Dongxu Kingdom were all women for generations, why couldn't they be the elder Yue? Why couldn't she fight for it? Since you want your brother to take that position, as long as she is there, forget it!

When Concubine De heard what Lu Lingshi said, the veins on her forehead jumped with anger. Then she saw her covering her face and turning away angrily. She was so angry that her vision went black. Fortunately, Lian Qiao was quick to support her and prevent her from falling.

"This evil creature should have been strangled to death when she was born. Why can't she understand that when Yong'er becomes emperor, she will be the most honorable princess of Dayue."

"How stupid! You are so short-sighted that you can only see the small piece of land in front of you!"

"Lian Qiao, have someone keep an eye on her. Report anything wrong to me immediately!" After all, she was her own flesh and blood. Although her daughter was not as important as her son in her heart, she could not just watch her do stupid things. Most importantly, she was afraid that this idiot would ruin her plan.

"Yes, I'll go right away!" Lian Qiao took the order and withdrew immediately, leaving Concubine De alone with a headache.

A group of people from Qingshan Village had already started to enter the mountain. As usual, Cuizhi, who was with Lu Lingyun, stayed behind to protect the Sheng family, while the others went up the mountain.

In order to give the two old men more energy and prevent them from falling behind, Sheng Wanqiu made an excuse that she was making honey water for them and asked the two old men to drink some spiritual spring water in advance.

The strange combination of two old men and three girls was formed, but when they went out, Mrs. Sheng secretly gave Sheng Wanqiu two cloth bags, the intention of which was self-evident.

Grandma Sheng: Hehehe! As smart as I am, I'm just waiting for my eldest granddaughter to bring home the golden nugget!
Perhaps Lu Lingyun and the others found a shortcut. As soon as Sheng Wanqiu entered the mountain, she felt that the route seemed wrong. It was not the same road as before, and there seemed to be less weeds on this road, as if it had been cut by someone.

“I’ve walked this road before, and I asked someone to cut down all the extra dead branches and weeds around it, so it’s faster to walk on it!
Lu Lingyun saw the confusion on Sheng Wanqiu's face and explained it to her.

"Oh, no wonder, I thought I was seeing things!" Sheng Wanqiu laughed, because she had never seen such a neat path when she went up the mountain before.

"Sister Yun, you see we're climbing higher and higher. Actually, when we come down, you can make a rope. Just fix it to the rock, and fix the lower part to the tree at the foot of the mountain. Then use it to transport the mined saltpeter. This way, we can save more manpower on mining. After all, it's such an important thing, it's better to dig it up and keep it for ourselves!"

Sheng Wanqiu was afraid that Lu Lingyun didn't understand what she meant, so she plucked some thin weeds from the roadside and demonstrated it to her.

"Well, I see. Sister Wanqiu is really smart. This is a good idea. When I see General Li, I'll ask him to find a craftsman to do it."

Lu Lingyun understood immediately, especially because she had a strong ability to accept things, so she understood what Sheng Wanqiu said as soon as she said it.

Soon the group of five climbed to the halfway point of the mountain. Although the road on Daqing Mountain was not easy to walk on, neither of the two old men complained about leg pain today, and their speed was not inferior to that of the young people at all.

"We're here. Look at the cave over there. We found it here!"

After climbing for about another half an hour, they looked in the direction of Lu Lingyun's finger and saw a cave with four armored soldiers guarding the entrance.

"Your humble servant greets the Grand Princess, Prince Wu'an, and Imperial Tutor Qiao!"

The leader, a middle-aged military officer who looked like a military officer, saw them from a distance and immediately came over to salute them. When he saw Lu Heng, his eyes were so excited that they turned red.

Lu Heng smiled and nodded at Shang Deqian as a greeting. You have to know that the Huwei Army was established by him, and every promoted soldier must be assessed by him before being appointed, so Lu Heng's status in the Huwei Army is even higher than that of the emperor.

"Deputy General Shang, please excuse me. How's the excavation going? What's the situation inside now?"

Before leaving, Lu Lingyun had ordered digging to begin, and to try to dig out a passage, so that it would be convenient to transport saltpeter in and out in large quantities later.

"Princess, we've dug a passage according to your instructions. Please come this way!"
