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

Chapter 286 Wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing?
"Lu Shiyun knelt outside Father Emperor's study for half the night last night. That little slut is really cunning. She played the victim to make the old emperor feel sorry for her. Moreover, I heard that the old emperor even agreed to let her go to the Grand Court Assembly with you!"

"Let me tell you, this guy is quite the actress. After all, not everyone is as smart as the two of us, able to see through her little tricks at a glance. Anyway, be careful."

When Sheng Wanqiu heard Lu Tangyun call the Emperor of Dayue "Old Deng," she almost burst out laughing. Haha, that was what she said last night. This girl remembered it so quickly. It seems she didn't drink too much!
"Oh! Aren't you going to the Grand Assembly?" Sheng Wanqiu turned her head to ask Lu Tangyun, who was now lying on her bed in a completely unseemly manner.

"Why would I go? I'm not in a hurry to get married, nor do I want to become famous overnight. Although I do have the qualities, after all, I'm quite talented. Sigh! It's just a pity that I'm a person who doesn't care about fame and fortune. There's nothing I can do about it!"

"Besides, what if I don't get a ranking or anything? Wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing? My mother said that the more you do, the more mistakes you make, and the less you do, the less mistakes you make. I'd rather just stay a peaceful princess!"

Listening to her arrogant words, Sheng Wanqiu just wanted to slap her with the sole of her shoe. You might say this idiot is carefree, but she talks about Lu Shiyun's affairs in a very sensible way. If you say she's not ambitious, everyone else knows to try to get a chance to show their face at the Grand Assembly, but this person isn't proactive at all, and doesn't even want to go.

This Consort Xian is quite an extraordinary woman. She can be considered the number one person in Da Yue to give up. The more you do, the more mistakes you make; if you do nothing, you won't make mistakes. This educational philosophy almost made Sheng Wanqiu think that this Consort Xian was also a time traveler. This mentality of giving up is the motto of modern people!

"Don't you want to defeat Lu Shiyun? If you went, you would definitely be stronger than her!" Sheng Wanqiu deliberately encouraged.

"Pshaw! Defeat her? Seriously, I could easily crush her with just a little effort!"

"But I'm not interested. Besides, aren't you here? And if all else fails, there's my older sister and Shuxue! Are you really going to just stand by and let this little bitch get her way?"

"I'll just stay in Da Yue and enjoy myself. I'll leave this important task to you all!"

After Lu Tangyun finished speaking, she closed her eyes and started rolling around on Sheng Wanqiu's bed, whimpering like Peppa Pig had found a mud puddle.

"Tangtang, if you go, I'll give you a set of pearl jewelry, the kind I designed myself, how about that?"

Lu Tangyun stopped rolling around instantly, opened her eyes, and sat up immediately. A hint of smugness flickered in her eyes, and she smiled brightly.

"Forget about jewelry, I don't need any. But if you could get me some explosives to play with, I might reluctantly accompany you to this grand assembly. After all, sisters should share both good and bad times! Hehe, don't you think so?"

"That's a piece of cake! It's just explosives, right? We have as much as you want! We've got a deal, you can't go back on your word!" Sheng Wanqiu snapped her fingers and looked at Lu Tangyun with a smile.

"Don't worry! When I get back to the palace tonight, I'll go see my father. If he won't let me, I'll pluck all the feathers off his beloved peacock!"

Seeing Lu Tangyun's determination to return to the palace and make a big splash, Sheng Wanqiu silently mourned for the peacock raised by the Emperor of Dayue for three seconds.

Ding'an Palace.

"Big brother, big brother, are you ready? I've prepared the carriage; we still need to go to the Qiao residence to pick up Wanqiu. Hurry up!"

Lu Yu jogged into Lu Li's courtyard and started shouting as soon as she entered.

Lu Li stood in front of the bronze mirror, pacing back and forth. The main reason was that when he escorted Sheng Wanqiu back to the Qiao residence last night, Sheng Wanqiu kissed him on the cheek, and he didn't know how to face her now.

He had actually gotten up a long time ago, or perhaps he hadn't slept much all night, feeling like he was being scratched by a cat.

"Big brother! Big brother! I've called you so many times, what's wrong with you today? Hurry up!" "If we don't go now, we'll be late. I've planned to have roast whole lamb for lunch and go fishing this afternoon. My day is packed! Let's go!"

Lu Yu, completely oblivious to his older brother's embarrassed expression, grabbed him and ran towards the front door. "What are you doing in my house?"

"You snuck out again?"

Qiao Yuyi was startled to see Lu Tangyun stuffing a steamed bun into her mouth. How could this person be in his house? Was he still asleep?

Qiao Yuyi couldn't help but rub his eyes, then looked closely and, good heavens, the person was still there; he wasn't dreaming.

"What are you looking at! I didn't come here to see you. Is this how you treat your elders? Hurry up and pour me a cup of tea!"

Lu Tangyun finished the bun in her mouth, then slammed her hand on the table with an air of authority. And you know what? Her princess-like aura immediately came through.

Qiao Yuyi, still bewildered, actually poured her a cup of tea, muttering to himself, "Elder? Isn't she a princess? How did she become his elder?"
Sheng Wanqiu walked over from behind the two of them and rolled her eyes helplessly when she saw their interaction. "A fool paired with an idiot is just too much."

"Alright! Stop scaring my nephew! Hurry up and eat! I reckon Lu Yu should be here soon!" Sheng Wanqiu smiled and sat down next to Lu Tangyun to eat breakfast as well.

"Auntie, where are you going?" Qiao Yuyi asked uncertainly, glancing at Lu Tangyun who was drinking tea.

"Children shouldn't meddle in adult matters!" Before Sheng Wanqiu could answer, Lu Tangyun interrupted her!

"I'm asking my aunt, not you. I think you're just being nosy again!" Qiao Yuyi retorted immediately.

"Hey! You've really gotten bold now, haven't you! Come on, let's see if I don't pluck your hair out of the house!" Lu Tangyun said, then stood up and started rolling up her sleeves.

"Come on! Do you really think I'm afraid of you?" Qiao Yuyi said angrily, already putting on airs, determined to teach this spoiled princess a lesson today!

"Alright! Sit down, both of you! Tell me! What's your grudge against each other? Tell me!" Sheng Wanqiu first glared at Qiao Yuyi, then reached out and pressed Lu Tangyun into her seat.

"She's being nosy and meddling in other people's business!"

"He doesn't know what's good for him and can't tell right from wrong!"

The two said in unison, then glared at each other with disdain before turning their heads away.

Sheng Wanqiu couldn't help but laugh; it was like two little chicks pecking at each other—it was really funny.

"Alright, ladies first, you go first!"

As soon as Lu Tangyun saw that Sheng Wanqiu let her speak first, she immediately perked up and started chattering away like a machine gun, giving Qiao Yuyi a thorough dressing down. If there were a knife, this guy would probably be able to kill someone.
