Chapter 150 How can one word describe this? (1)
Qin Luan didn't say anything, but just looked at Lu Changqing with a look that said, "You are fooling around, keep fooling around."
"I'm not lying to you. My daughter really dreamed of a fairy. The fairy not only predicted the future for me, but also gave me the ability to take things from afar."
"Don't try to fool me with your tricks. You think you can fool me with a few tricks of a charlatan." Qin Luan said as he pulled Lu Changqing out of the guest room. "Come with me now to pay for the accommodation and return to Beijing immediately!"
"Mom, wait a moment!" Lu Changqing grabbed Qin Luan and drove Ling Shuang and others out of the room.
After everyone in the room had left, Lu Changqing said to Qin Luan in a serious and serious manner: "Mom, what I am going to do next may subvert your cognition. You should control your emotions and don't faint from excitement."
Qin Luan said disdainfully: "What tricks are you trying to play again? Your mother is alive——"
A door panel appeared out of nowhere, standing between Lu Changqing and Qin Luan, followed by another one.
Qin Luan's unfinished words got stuck in his throat. He pointed at the door panel that suddenly appeared in front of him and trembled non-stop, saying in disbelief: "This...you...how did you do it?"
"This is the magical power that the immortal taught me." Lu Changqing held up the "double door" and poked his head out from the gap in the middle and asked Qin Luan: "Mom, now you should believe it, right?"
Qin Luan stroked his chest with his hand, calmed down his emotions, and then said, "Were you really enlightened by the immortal in your dream?"
"Is this true? If you don't believe me, I'll make another one for you." Lu Changqing said as he put the two door panels back into the space and took out a laundry mallet.
Qin Luan rolled up Lu Changqing's sleeves, looked at her arms again and again, and said, "Change into another one."
Lu Changqing obediently took out another white porcelain bowl from the space.
Qin Luan excitedly picked up the bowl in Lu Changqing's hand, looked at it again and again, and confirmed with Lu Changqing again: "Did the immortal really say that you have great fortune?"
Lu Changqing nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, "It's more real than pearls!"
"Did the immortal say anything about destiny?"
"It is invaluable! It is immeasurable!"
Qin Luan took a deep breath, "Really?"
"real!"
Qin Luan could think of only the queen as the most noble person. She was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. "I knew you were born to be the queen. Look, even the immortals have appeared to help you. What are you waiting for? Let's go back to the capital!"
"Wait!" After Lu Changqing took the bowl from Qin Luan and put it into the space, he pulled the excited Qin Luan and asked, "Why are you going back to Beijing? The immortal said that my fortune is in the south."
"The Emperor is in the capital now. How could your fortune be in the south? You must have remembered it wrongly."
Lu Changqing held Qin Luan, "Mom, don't get excited. Let's sort this out first. Is there a possibility that the great fortune mentioned by the immortals is not the queen?"
Qin Luan rolled her eyes at Lu Changqing, "What else can you be but the Queen? The Emperor can't make you a princess, can he? Besides, what's so special about a princess? You have to bow obediently when you see the Queen."
"Can't you be a little bolder?"
Qin Luan thought about it, frowned and said: "Even if she is the Queen Mother, doesn't she have to start as the Queen first?"
"How about being bolder?"
Qin Luan turned her head and looked at Lu Changqing, wondering if there was any status in the world more noble than that of the empress dowager.
Qin Luan seemed to have thought of something, his eyes widened like bells.
"Could it be..." Qin Luan's lips trembled, "You don't want to live? You dare to think about that position?"
"It's not what I thought. It's the immortal who predicted my fate. A golden scale cannot stay in a pond. Once it encounters wind and clouds, it will turn into a dragon. Mother, what identity do you have to be called a dragon?"
Qin Luan's legs went limp and she almost fell to the ground. "There is no such thing as a woman in this world... You are committing treason and rebellion! If the imperial court finds out, you will be beheaded!"
Lu Changqing supported the man and said, "There was no emperor before, but there was one later. There was no empress before, so why can't I be the first one?"
"That's a matter of losing your head, how dare you! I think that immortal is probably a resentful ghost. It's not enlightening you, it's clearly preparing you to die!" Qin Luan shook off Lu Changqing's hand and said without question: "This road can't be hurried, return to Beijing now, and don't even think about going to the south in your life."
Qin Luan herself didn't know why, she just had a mysterious faith in her little daughter and felt that her daughter could succeed in anything.
So when she heard that Lu Changqing wanted to rebel and become emperor, her first reaction was not to think it was a fantasy, but to fear that she would lose her head.
"Okay, if you don't go, I'll go alone!"
"you dare!"
Lu Changqing walked to the stool in front of the table and sat down, crossing his legs and said, "Mom, I'm not afraid of revealing the secret to you. There will be chaos in the north soon. When the time comes, the emperor will send people to look for me everywhere. If you go back now, you will run into his gun. How do you think he will torture you in order to force me to show up?"
"Are you saying that someone in the north will rebel?"
"The battle three years ago failed to hurt the barbarians. Now that they have recovered, they will naturally go south to continue to fight for territory."
"What does that have to do with you? Isn't your ungrateful sister a good fighter? Let her go to the battlefield?" Qin Luan became more and more excited and angry. "Besides, you don't know how to fight. Isn't this asking you to die?"
"Mom, calm down first. Don't be so excited." Lu Changqing stood up and pressed her to sit on the stool. After she calmed down, he said, "He doesn't want me to go to the battlefield, but he wants something in my hand."
"what?"
"Something that will make this battle an easy win."
Qin Luan's eyes rolled and a plan came to her mind, "Then let's give it to him, and then let him exchange it for the position of Queen."
Lu Changqing patted Qin Luan's shoulder and said, "Mom, you think too simply. Once I give that thing to him, it will be completely useless and I will only die faster."
"How dare he! If he kills meritorious officials at random, won't the whole court curse him to death?"
"He is the emperor. He has plenty of power and methods to control and threaten me. If he doesn't tell me afterwards, who would know that I gave it to him? Between the king of a country and the common people, whose words are more convincing?"
Neither this nor that works, Qin Luan felt a little discouraged.
"After talking for so long, he asked you what exactly you wanted?"
"gunpowder."
"what is that?"
"A magical weapon that can be used to attack a city."
"How do you know this? Did the gods tell you in a dream?"
Lu Changqing nodded.
This is the good thing about ancient times: all things that are difficult to explain can be attributed to supernatural forces.
Qin Luan looked up at Lu Changqing, wanting to say something but stopping herself. After thinking for a long time, she still couldn't figure it out.
"Why did the gods come to you?"
Lu Changqing said confidently: "It's time, luck, and fate. Maybe I have all three."
Less than half a month after he finished his boast, Lu Changqing and his companions were captured in the village by bandits who had rushed into the town to "borrow" food just after they crossed the river.
