I will lead the whole village to occupy the land and become the king.

The smile on Jiang Qinyu's face faded, and she glanced at Wang Jinhua lightly, "If you have any doubts, you can go and check it out."

She was not afraid to admit that Wang Bo died at her hands, but since they lived in the same village, there was no need to become mortal enemies with the Wang family.

Even if they investigated, they would not find anything. Lu Yanzheng's people would only say how much Wang Bo deserved to die, but would not tell them how Wang Bo died.

"Oh, I told you that your elder brother died because he violated military discipline. You insisted on asking for the truth. Aren't you just causing trouble? Go, go, go back to sleep..." While pushing Wang Jinhua back, Mrs. Wang turned back and smiled at Jiang Qinyu, "A Zheng's wife, don't mind it. She's young and naive..."

Jiang Qinyu pursed her lips and said nothing, watching the backs of the Wang family mother and daughter disappear into the night.

It's been so long since Wang Bo got into trouble, why are they asking now?

……

The next morning, just after the hour of Mao, all the people in Dingshui Village went out and began to move from their old houses to their new houses.

The new house was located just to the right and rear of the former lookout tower. The people of Dingshui Village demolished a small hill with explosives and cleared a piece of wasteland to create a homestead.

Originally, that row of houses was built for newcomers, but later Jiang Qinyu wanted to build a new house, so she asked the village to buy a piece of residential land. When Village Chief Li saw this, he also approved a piece for himself. When the other villagers saw that both families wanted to build new houses, they decided to replan that area and the whole village built new houses together.

The infrastructure work in Dingshui Village has always been fast, not to mention that it is building a house for themselves, so the speed is naturally needless to say.

The adults carried the big items to the new house, and the children moved the small things at home into the new house one by one.

The Lu family and Jiang Qinyu's family had two more old men's followers and coachmen, and with the help of Aping and Qin Shen, who were both very agile, they moved very quickly and finished the job in just half a day.

This time, Jiang Qinyu did not build the new house separately for Old Man Lu and Mrs. Chen. Instead, she built a small courtyard for them in her own large courtyard, so that Lu Yanzheng could take care of them in their old age.

"Eldest brother's wife, we will live together again from now on. If there is anything you need us to do, just let me know." Chen expressed her opinion as soon as she entered the new house.

Jiang Qinyu took her arm and said with a smile: "Mom, look at what you said, will I still be polite to you?"

Now I finally don’t have to be neighbors with Lu Yangcai’s family anymore.

Although Lu Yancai seemed to be getting better, who knew if he would suddenly have a cramp again one day? It was better to stay away from him.

At the same time, Lu Yancai looked at his brand new yard and clapped his hands contentedly.

"Tianbao, our family will have a new house to live in from now on!" Lu Yancai picked up Lu Tianbao, his heart filled with great pride.

Lu Tianbao had been hanging out with Shufan and Pan'er for a long time, and had learned how intimate they were with Jiang Qinyu. He kissed Lu Yancai on the face, "Dad, you're so awesome!"

Their family was originally so poor that they were almost penniless, but his father worked day and night and desperately squeezed out the money to build a new house.

Walking into the house built by his own father's hard work, he felt that he could stand up straight.

"Tsk! Stop praising your father," Ma looked at the small courtyard with only three rooms with disdain. "It's just such a shabby house, and you and your son made me starve for a whole winter. Who would care?"

Lu Yancai frowned and glared at Ma, "If you don't want to live here, go back to the old house!"

"I'm going to hell! It's just that broken house that was burned down. If you want to live there, go ahead and live there! I won't live there!" Ma was well-behaved for a while. She hadn't been beaten for a long time. Now she had forgotten the fear of being dominated by Lu Yancai.

However, when Lu Yancai heard this, he just frowned and didn't hit her. Instead, he lowered his head and said to Lu Tianbao: "Tianbao, Dad will help you clean up the room."

He was completely disappointed with Ma. If it weren't for Tianbao having a complete family, he would have divorced this stupid woman!

Ma stamped her feet in anger behind them, "You...you just wait for me!"

She just couldn't believe it. How could two men, one big and one small, live without a woman? Humph!

Ma's eyes rolled, and she simply went back to the house, packed her things, and ran back to her parents' home.

She will be gone for ten days or half a month and then come back. By then, when the father and son realize that they can't live without her, won't Lu Yan have to worship her?

After Lu Yancai and Lu Tianbao cleaned up the house and came out, they looked around but couldn't find Ma. So the father and son simply gave up looking and went into the kitchen together to cook lunch.

After a while, the sound of father and son making fun of each other came from the kitchen.

"Haha... Dad, your face is covered in flour. You look like an old man with a white beard!"

"You better keep the fire going, kid. Look at your face, it's almost as black as charcoal..."

Although their house is in the most remote location of the new house, the smell of life and laughter in the house are no less than those in other houses.

……

Half a month later, in Qiongzhou, the largest and most luxurious house in the provincial capital was renovated and the plaque was hung again today.

When the red silk on the plaque was torn off, some literate onlookers read it out loud.

"Northwest… the palace?"

"Huh? Is this the residence of our Qiongzhou's new lord, the King of the Northwest?"

"Great! Your Highness, are you accepting the title bestowed upon you by our people?"

"That's right! I heard that the prince was so busy training the Northwest Army that he forgot to eat and sleep all day and didn't even go home!"

"Really? I also heard..."

Amid the discussions of the people, Lu Yanzheng was handling official business quickly in the Northwest Palace.

"General...oh no, I should call you Prince now," Qin Shen winked at Lu Yanzheng with great joy, "You have finally accepted the title of King of the Northwest."

Originally, Lu Yanzheng was unwilling to declare himself king, but because they took over the four northwestern states effortlessly and were supported by the people, Lu Yanzheng was in a dilemma and acquiesced to the title.

Nowadays, whether in the military or in government affairs, the four northwestern states are developing according to an overall plan.

The only thing that makes Lu Yanzheng depressed is that he is now so busy with government affairs that he almost has no time for himself, let alone going back to see Jiang Qinyu.

Who can understand the pain of a man who has been chaste for many years, suddenly starts having sex, and then leaves his wife again not long after?

The key is that he can't express this pain.

"Are you free?" Lu Yanzheng threw the pen in his hand and looked at Qin Shen with his arms crossed. "It seems that the tasks I arranged for you are still too few, otherwise..."

"No, no, no," Qin Shen waved his hands repeatedly, cold sweat dripping down his forehead. He pointed at his dark circles and said with tears in his eyes, "Please forgive me! I've only been back for seven days, and I haven't slept well in seven days..."
