Portable Space: The Peasant Princess

Chapter 83 You don’t deserve it (2)

Lu Ying hesitated and said, "Mom, tell me, is my brother...rejected by His Majesty?"

Liu Yu's eyes dimmed, and a fire arose from her heart.

She refused to accept it, why could Lu Yuan go to the battlefield at the age of fourteen, but her son could not go to the battlefield even at the age of sixteen? Obviously her son's martial arts skills are not worse than Lu Yuan's, this is unfair!

The more he thought about it, the angrier Liu Yu felt.

“No, let’s go, let’s ask the old lady again!”

Lu Ying frowned, "Mom, you have already begged the old lady once before. If you go again, she will only be bored!"

The old lady has quite a temper. In order to allow her brother to take Lu Yuan's place, her mother has already asked the old lady to persuade her father in person. If she goes again this time, it will only make her unhappy.

Liu Yu was furious, "What else can we do? We can't take advantage of Lu Li again, right?"

Lu Ying's face sank slightly, and she said with some hatred: "Mom! Watch your words, this is the front yard, not your yard. Lu Li is the young master of the Lu family and the future heir. How can an aunt like you do it?" On a first-name basis?"

Liu Yu was startled. She looked up and looked around, only to see several maids and servants passing by with their heads lowered, looking at their mother and daughter tremblingly.

 “Four…fourth lady, second aunt!”

After a few people bowed cautiously, they left as if they were running away.

After everyone left, Lu Ying stared at her coldly and said, "Mom, I know you want to help your brother, and I also know that you have always wanted to get rid of Lu Yuan, but can you be a little cautious?"

 No wonder her father has always disliked her. With such a brain, she has so many ideas but doesn’t know how to hide them. How could she have such a stupid mother?

"I...amn't I anxious? If His Majesty orders Lu...to let him go again, won't everything we have done be in vain again?"

Liu Yu was actually afraid of her daughter from the bottom of her heart. Even though Lu Ying looked weak on the outside, she was actually quite a devil inside.

She had seen her daughter's ferocious appearance when she committed murder. Even as a mother, she couldn't help being frightened after seeing it.

"Okay, what's the use of talking more? Who makes my brother inferior to others?"

 This is a fact. In her opinion, her brother is indeed inferior to Lu Yuan. Although she doesn't like Lu Yuan, she has to admit that Lu Yuan is a hundred times better than Lu Li in every aspect.

Hearing this, Liu Yu was dissatisfied and said: "Ying'er, how can you belittle your brother like this? Besides, in what way is he worse than Lu Yuan? I think he is much better than Lu Yuan!"

Lu Ying said impatiently: "Okay, actually... there's nothing wrong with letting him go. On this battlefield, swords have no eyes, so it shouldn't be a big deal if someone dies."

Liu Yu's eyes widened and she said happily: "Could it be that... Ying'er thought of some good idea?"

Lu Ying smiled coldly and said: "There will always be attention. The difficult thing is who will implement this attention!"

After she finished speaking, she flicked her eyelashes, regained her usual gentleness and said, "Okay, mother, let's go find my eldest brother and ask about the situation."

Liu Yu nodded and let her pull him towards Lu Li's yard.

　　――

After Lu Yi came back, he hurried to Lingyun Pavilion where Lu Yuan was.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Zhao Bin sitting under a peach blossom tree wiping his sword, but Lu Yuan was nowhere to be seen.

As soon as Zhao Bin saw him, he stood up quickly and saluted, "General!"

Lu Yi nodded, "Where is your young master?"

 “Young Master, he...is in the study.”

Lu Yuan didn’t eat or drink that day, and Zhao Bin felt a little worried.

Lu Yi nodded and strode towards the study.
