The peasant girl has a private space, and her husband is handsome.

Outside the palace, Vice Minister Luo, having finished the morning court session, sat in his carriage, his mind preoccupied with the matter of the silver mine.

Although the granddaughter in Qinghe County was very unfilial and unruly, she was actually very capable and managed to find a silver mine.

If the Luo family acquires the mining rights to the silver mine, their status in the Great Qi will soar, and they could very well become the sixth most powerful family.

Minister Luo was thrilled at the thought; he had to find a way to get control of the silver mine.

Su Bing's family has lived in the countryside for many years and has many shortcomings. He must send a mature and steady manager to Qinghe County, preferably one who can bring Su Bing's family under his control.

At this moment, Prime Minister Feng's attendant came over and said through the carriage window, "Minister, my Prime Minister invites you to the Feng residence for a chat."

This was the first time that Vice Minister Luo had developed a dissatisfaction with Prime Minister Feng.

What did Prime Minister Feng take him for? He still treated him like a dog, summoning him at will and dismissing him at will, just like before.

His status is different now than before; he is Miss Su's biological grandfather, and Miss Su owns a large silver mine.

Although Luo Shilang was dissatisfied, he still went to the Prime Minister's residence.

Upon returning to his residence, Prime Minister Feng immediately summoned all his advisors to his study.

He was mainly indignant about the silver mine, and couldn't help but complain to his staff.

"His Majesty said that if the girl manages to seize the silver mine, it will belong to her alone until the end of the war. This decision is too hasty. If a silver mine is given to a private individual, everyone will object."

Wealth is a powerful motivator; it was an entire silver mine, and no one could resist the allure of money.

"Once that girl gets her hands on the silver mine, we must do everything in our power to stop her from mining it privately."

The officials all nodded in agreement.

Only Vice Minister Luo remained silent, his expression focused as he looked intently at the sheepskin boots.

Although Minister Luo's eyes were on the sheepskin boots, his mind was on the silver mine and the possibility of the Luo family becoming the sixth most powerful family.

If the silver mine is in the hands of a young girl, he can still find a way to get a share, but if it falls into the hands of the imperial court, it's equivalent to it falling into the hands of Prime Minister Feng.

At that time, even the leftovers won't be available to him, the Vice Minister of Works.

Prime Minister Feng called out Vice Minister Luo, "Old Luo, you need to get your stance straight. Silver mines should rightfully belong to the imperial court. You can't favor that girl just because she's your granddaughter."

Minister Luo, regaining his composure, replied, "Everything is subject to His Majesty's decree. I apologize, but I have matters to attend to at home, so I must take my leave."

Once the Luo family gains control of the silver mine, he will never have to bow down to Prime Minister Feng again.

From then on, wherever she went, she was always the center of attention.

This was the first time that Vice Minister Luo had shown disobedience to Prime Minister Feng, which made Prime Minister Feng very uncomfortable.

Minister Luo is nothing more than someone with a powerful granddaughter, yet she's already getting arrogant and no longer respects him as the Prime Minister! Minister Luo, you'd better not regret this later!

Since Vice Minister Luo has his own ideas, let him do them. He was so heartless to the young girl before, I don't believe she will pay attention to him. She will definitely be disappointed in the end.

When Vice Minister Luo returned to his residence, it was already past lunchtime.

He discovered that the lunch prepared for him at the mansion was just congee with pickled vegetables.

The meal was so meager that it aroused some dissatisfaction in Minister Luo's heart, who felt that his wife was not good at managing the household.

He had just sat down in the dining room and taken a sip of porridge when his wife came over.

Minister Luo noticed that his wife's sleeves were all pilled from wear, just like his worn-out sheepskin boots.

His wife complained to him, "Master, we're almost starving. Didn't you say you'd already written to Qinghe County? Has that girl replied? How much money did she send?"

Vice Minister Luo shook his head.

All the letters he sent to Qinghe County disappeared without a trace, as if they had been thrown into the sea.

Thinking of this, Minister Luo couldn't help but feel disgusted with his wife.

"It's all your fault for not watching the child properly back then. He was switched with someone else. Otherwise, if that child had grown up in the Luo family, he would definitely have listened to me without question."

Madam Luo didn't think she was wrong at all. "If the child hadn't been switched, your own granddaughter would be enjoying a life of luxury in the capital with us. How would she have had the chance to make a name for herself in Qinghe County?"

Minister Luo felt that his wife's words made a lot of sense; his granddaughter had indeed taken over Mingfang's identity and stolen her opportunities.

"Sir, how about sending my personal maid, Fan Mama, to Qinghe County instead?"

Vice Minister Luo immediately denied it, saying, "No need."

Now that the silver mine matter has come to light, Vice Minister Luo is paying even closer attention to Qinghe County and has decided to send his trusted confidants there.

Whether the Luo family can become the sixth most powerful family depends entirely on their granddaughter.

Whether through coercion, bribery, or begging, the bottom line is that the granddaughter must be brought back to the Luo family, and that girl must be firmly held in their grasp.

Minister Luo told his wife about the silver mine, "Our granddaughter is quite something. She actually found a silver mine owned by the Prince of Huainan, and even stole a silver brick from it..."

"His Majesty said that if she can seize the silver mine, she can mine and manage it herself until the war ends."

Madam Luo was shocked. Was it auspicious smoke rising from the Luo family's ancestral graves?

That girl grew up in the countryside, yet she's so capable!

Mining silver would bring immense wealth! If what His Majesty says is true, the silver mines will be mined and used by that girl as long as the war continues.

If we bring that girl back to the Luo family, the Luo family will definitely become the sixth most powerful family in the Great Qi Dynasty.

The women from those wealthy and powerful families would certainly no longer mock her, the wife of a vice minister, for coming from a rural background.

When she goes out to worship Buddha in the future, people will definitely give way to her when they see her carriage.

The thought alone is exhilarating.

The Prince of Huainan's Palace.

The King of Huainan listened to the report carefully several times and could not believe that the little girl and the tiger had emptied the cave of silver bricks.

Those silver bricks are no light; even five hundred people couldn't move them all in a day.

He suspected that his subordinates had lied about the military situation, so he threatened the junior officer who came to report, saying, "If you dare to deceive me, I will make you suffer the punishment of being slowly sliced ​​to death."

Xiao Lai already understood on his way that it was impossible for him to return alive.

The King of Huainan would generally kill anyone who made a mistake.

His forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he answered in a trembling voice, "Your Highness, everything I have said is true. Moreover, I have brought ten of my men with me, and they can all testify that I have not lied."

When the ten ordinary soldiers were called in, they all said the exact same thing as the young general.

The King of Huainan thought to himself, "Since she wasn't lying, then that little girl must be too strange!"

The strategist Wang Changxu said, "Your Highness, I heard that the girl is slender, but she uses a six-stone bow. I also heard that the huge rock outside Pengcheng was placed by the girl. The rock is so big that even a hundred strong men couldn't lift it. So the girl is indeed a bit strange."

The King of Huainan remembered the beast king who could control animals. The wild beasts he had trained for many years all turned against him upon seeing the little girl.

The white tiger even became the little girl's mount.

So that little girl is indeed a bit strange.

In fact, the King of Huainan had long since realized that the little girl was extraordinary, but he was unwilling to admit it.

Wang Changxu waved his hand, dismissing the junior officer who had reported the news, intending to have a private conversation with the prince.

The young general was extremely grateful that he had managed to leave the Prince of Huainan's mansion alive.

He was so frightened that his inner clothes were completely soaked. After stepping out of the palace gate and being exposed to the wind, he sneezed twice.

Inside the room, Wang Changxu suggested, "Your Highness, why don't we consider a different approach? We don't necessarily have to resort to violence against that young girl. She is indeed a talented individual. If she could be put to your service, wouldn't that be like adding wings to a tiger?"

The King of Huainan fell into deep thought.

Such a capable young girl, if she were truly put to his use, could be taken to the capital of the Great Qi very quickly.

The question is, can that girl really submit sincerely? I have a feeling that she's rebellious at heart.

Wang Changxu suggested, "I heard that the Great Qi court has been dragging its feet and is unwilling to grant that young girl an official position. If you offer her a high-ranking official post and generous salary, she might actually defect."

The King of Huainan thought it made some sense.

"Military Advisor Wang, you will act as my persuader."

When Wang Changxu left the Prince of Huainan's residence, he secretly took all his belongings with him.

He knew that if he failed to persuade Miss Su this time, he would surely be killed by the Prince of Huainan upon his return.

So they made two preparations: if they couldn't complete the task assigned by the prince, they would have no choice but to flee like Li Xuanji.

Wang Changxu traveled for a whole day by carriage and finally met the legendary Miss Su in Sicheng.

Although I had always heard that Miss Su's mount was a large white tiger, I was still quite shocked when I actually saw it.
