Awesome! My best friend traveled through time and space and became the infrastructure queen

Lu Chaofeng, who gradually regained consciousness, curled his lips and said, "Just relying on this Gu poison that you haven't mastered yet?"

"You!" Xiao Chunmei was so angry that she was shaking all over.

"Someone come! Kill him for me!"

"What about the rest?!"

Lu Chaofeng straightened his back and, before she could finish her words, he struck with his sword. The cold, sharp hilt of the sword pressed directly against Xiao Chunmei's brow. She spread her hands and quickly retreated using light kung fu.

Lu Chaofeng looked at her coldly: "I didn't expect you to have some skills. You have hidden them well over the years."

Xiao Chunmei wanted to run away, but Lu Chaofeng had regained consciousness. How could he give her a chance?

As soon as she flew onto the roof, Lu Chaofeng put the sword in his hand on her neck.

"Do the people of the Xiao family know that you have defected to the White Bear Nation?"

"Hmph, the Xiao family?" She snorted coldly, and simply gave up resisting, allowing Lu Chaofeng to drag her back to the ground.

"Prince——"

"I am late, please punish me, Your Highness."

Wu Ming and his companions ran over from the front yard, wounded all over. Blood was still dripping from their swords, and it looked like they had been through a fierce battle.

Lu Chaofeng narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiao Chunmei with a slanted look, "Poisonous woman, it is really a misfortune for the Ningyuan Palace that my father let you into the family."

These words were like a knife stabbing into her heart. Xiao Chunmei smiled miserably, then said sharply and harshly, "Yes, I do have bad intentions, but what kind of good person is your father?"

"I've been in the mansion for so many years. He knows that I've been in love with him since childhood, but has he ever come back to see me?"

"Even for the wedding ceremony!! He sent someone from the border to deliver a set of armor to fool me!"

"I am from the Xiao family. He wants to slap the Xiao family in the face, but what about me? I am so innocent!"

Lu Chaofeng sneered, "You designed my father to marry into the palace. Even if you are from the Xiao family, what does it matter? Do you really think you can replace my mother? Don't dream."

"Ha ha ha ha--"

"Your mother? What about your mother?"

"It's useless for your father to miss her! Hahaha, she has already turned into bones and died."

Lu Chaofeng hated it most when this woman mentioned his mother. He pinched her chin tightly and said, "Shut up! You are such a viper, you are not worthy of mentioning my mother! Don't even think about being compared to her!"

Xiao Chunmei held her head high, her whole face gradually turning the color of liver, but she was still smiling, laughing so hard that tears were about to come out.

Wu Ming was worried that Lu Chaofeng was really going to kill someone, and thought that he absolutely could not bear the crime of "matricide"!

He rushed forward to dissuade her: "Prince, hand her over to us for interrogation. We still need to investigate the conspiracy of the White Bear Country."

"Yes, Prince, please don't be impulsive!"

"Please think twice!"

The others knelt on one knee, fearing that if Lu Chaofeng made a mistake, he would be doomed.

Even if Xiao Chunmei could only be considered a pawn that the Ningyuan Palace was forced to accept because they didn't want to fall out with the palace, she still held the empty title of Ningyuan Princess! In the eyes of the world, Xiao Chunmei was undoubtedly Lu Chaofeng's stepmother.

Their prince's life was too hard and too difficult. He was left alone in the capital and had to guard against the assassinations in the palace and be careful of the schemes of the king's uncle. He also had to be on guard against this "princess" at all times. Poisoning by her had become commonplace.

Wu Ming grabbed Lu Chaofeng's arm tightly and slowly pulled his sanity back. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then threw him to the ground. "Give her some muscle softening powder! Don't let her die or escape."

"Yes, I understand."

Wu Ming aimed at the back of Xiao Chunmei's neck and slapped her with his hand. After she passed out, he pried open her mouth and stuffed a pill of Penglai Valley's special cartilage powder into her mouth.

It's more than just soft muscles!

This was something Mi Feng had researched out when he was bored. It would make people's bones weak, and they couldn't even make a fist. The bones didn't know how to use strength or feel pain, and they were as soft as a noodle.

The other two approached and said, "Prince, the assassin and the gap knocked out the servants in the palace in advance. Fortunately, we have the antidote given by Junior Master Mi Feng, otherwise we would have died."

Lu Chaofeng's face was gloomy, and he felt very uncomfortable. "Well, did the assassin leave any survivors?"

"No, when they were captured, they crushed the poison in their mouths and died quickly and without any hesitation."

"Ah."

Lu Chaofeng nodded. The wound on his leg flowed down from his ankle to the ground, and the hem of his robe was already stained red with blood.

Seeing this, Zhao Xi couldn't help but exclaimed: "Prince! You are injured! Quick, go back to your room."

After Lu Chaofeng breathed a sigh of relief, the pain gradually intensified. He ordered hoarsely, "Go to the secret room and bring back a poison-eliminating pill. Also..."

"Sir!"

"Prince! What's wrong with you?"

Before Lu Chaofeng could finish his words, he fell to the ground and completely fainted...

"Quick, take the prince back to his room. I'll go get the medicine!"

"it is good!"

Chen Xi blew the whistle in his hand while running, one long, two short, four short and three long.

This is a secret code unique to Penglai Valley, meaning: "Young Master is in trouble, need help!"

Soon there was a whistle in the distance in response.

The sound is getting closer.

Soon, seven or eight dark shadows tumbled into the inner courtyard and headed straight into the house...

……

Inside the cave.

Su Chengnan changed into warm clothes and sat by the fire, listening to them talk and watching them work.

The women here are very hardworking. Each of them has something to do, and their hands and feet are nimble and they don't want to stop for a moment.

The lady on the left and several other women were weaving net bags with straw ropes. They said that this way they could carry some wild vegetables and fruits on the road.

The mother-in-law on the other side was mending shoes, socks, and clothes with four or five girls, about seventeen or eighteen years old. This mother-in-law had been a maid in a wealthy family before. When she was released from the mansion due to her old age, she went to Tieniu Village and made a living by doing needlework. So when she came out of the fire, she didn't even bother to look behind the bed for the money in her coffin book. Instead, she put on her shoes and grabbed her sewing basket.

The girls surrounding her were the ones who often went to her house to learn the craft from her when they were in the village. Although they had never formally become her apprentices, they respected their mother-in-law very much and even treated her as an elder.

Su Chengnan watched intently. She felt that this kind of scene was rare, filled with an indescribable warmth that reminded her of the director and teachers at the orphanage when she was very young. Those were rare warm moments in her memory, and that kind of love flowed silently...

"Miss, I have something to tell you." Jiayi said loudly with his eyes closed and his back to the cave.

When everyone heard the sound, they stopped what they were doing and looked over.

"It's okay, it's okay. I'll go take a look. You guys continue with your work." Su Chengnan waved his hand, spoke to them softly, and quickly walked out of the cave.

Jia Yi's face showed a rare joy. He grinned and said in a low voice: "Miss, Qingshan is back!"
