Lu Xiao was not worried about whether Minglan could succeed in revenge.
Minglan is very smart. In the original timeline, she could have successfully completed her revenge with her own abilities, let alone now.
Besides, Lu Xiao only said he didn't care, it was impossible for him to really not care.
With him watching over us, even if something unexpected happens, he can always make up for it.
So in the following months, Minglan began to implement her revenge plan.
The plan is roughly the same as the original timeline.
After Minglan and Lu Xiao's marriage was finalized, Lin Qinshuang's daughter Molan was filled with jealousy.
Molan has always wanted to marry a richer man since she was little.
Earlier, at Madam Wu's polo match, she had taken the opportunity to exchange glances with Madam Wu's legitimate son, Liang Han.
Ever since she decided to seek revenge, Minglan immediately thought of taking advantage of this matter.
So during the following period, she sent people to monitor Molan and Liang Han's every move, and deliberately created opportunities for the two to meet.
As expected, after a few chance encounters, one of them was determined to seduce the other was too bold to do anything.
There was no need to deliberately add fuel to the fire; the two of them naturally hooked up with each other.
Things became much simpler after that.
Find a suitable opportunity for Madam Wang Daife to directly expose this matter.
The rest is exactly the same as in the original timeline.
Sheng Hong cares most about his reputation and future.
Naturally, he was extremely angry when such a scandal occurred in his family.
In order to get her daughter married into the Marquis's mansion, Lin Qinshuang of course completely dropped her disguise.
For the sake of his family's reputation, Sheng Hong had no choice but to swallow his bitterness and start negotiations with the Yongchang Marquisate.
Mrs. Wu naturally looked down on Molan.
However, it must be said that Molan's ability to seduce men is indeed inherited from her mother.
Finally, under Liang Han's insistence, Madam Wu reluctantly agreed to this matter.
Of course, Lu Xiao's presence also played a role in this.
After all, marrying into the Sheng family would also establish some connection with Lu Xiao.
Even though Lu Xiao looked down on the Liang family, they could actually gain countless benefits from this matter.
Lu Xiao didn't care about this.
Anyway, this matter really screwed the Liang family.
Marrying a woman like Molan would definitely lead to unrest in Liang Han's harem.
Although Liang Han was a playboy with no real talent, he wasn't a particularly evil person either.
The little benefit I got was considered as compensation to the Liang family.
Thus, Molan finally married into the Yongchang Marquis's mansion with great satisfaction.
On the first day of her marriage, Sheng Hong had Lin Qinshuang beaten with dozens of sticks and then exiled to a farm outside the city.
That night, Minglan secretly went there.
Then, a few days later, the news of Lin Qinshuang's death reached the Sheng family.
The news that came back was that Lin Qinshuang had been beaten with a stick, caught a cold, and eventually died of her illness.
(I) Wife's Will III 2 Long Term But in reality, she died on the night Minglan went there.
However, it was Lu Xiao who went with her that night.
The person who was in charge of guarding Lin Qinshuang at the farm knew what to say and what not to say after seeing him.
Therefore, they waited several days after Lin Qinshuang's death before they reported the news back to the Sheng family.
At this point, Minglan finally got her revenge.
During this period, Lu Xiao was also busy.
Joy of Life has already begun to spread its military might across the world, so naturally he is ready to start making some moves.
As early as when Minglan began her revenge, Lu Xiao took the time to go to the palace to look for Zhao Zhen.
So a few days later, Zhao Zhen, citing the Twin Kings' Rebellion and the suspicion that the troops stationed in Bian Jing were negligent in their duties, decided to form a new army.
The new army was established in the name of protecting the crown prince.
The number of people is tentatively set at 10,000.
After several months of selection, all 10,000 new soldiers have arrived.
In the next period of time, they will follow Lu Xiao to practice martial arts.
Lu Xiao planned to train them well and then lead them to war.
Recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and unify the country.
To accomplish these tasks, ten thousand people would definitely be enough.
I believe that this goal will be achieved soon.

Chapter 383: Legend of the Hidden Sea
Great Yong Dynasty, Jiangning Prefecture, Qingquan Town.
There was a carpenter's family in Qingquan Town.
The boss's name is Xingdou. He has been in Qingquan Town for more than ten years and his carpentry skills are well-known in the surrounding area.
Whenever people in town need to make furniture, tables, chairs, or similar, the first person they think of is Master Xingdou.
Everyone in town knows that Master Xingdou has two disciples.
The eldest disciple, Cang Hai, was a modest and gentle man, a handsome young man. Just over twenty years old, he had already inherited most of Master Xingdou's carpentry skills.
By then, the second disciple, Lu Xiao, would be much worse than the eldest disciple.
Don't talk about other people's problems.
This second disciple was actually a good person, but it was rumored that he had a serious illness when he was young. Although he was cured, he was left with serious sequelae.
Therefore, these two disciples usually look frail. Although they are already eighteen years old, their physical condition does not look as good as that of an eight-year-old child.
It feels like I could die at any moment.
Therefore, the people in the town privately speculated that Master Xingdou's second disciple would not live past the age of twenty.
Alas, God is really blind.
Master Xingdou was such a good person, but now he has to die young. It's really unfair.
At this moment, the young man whose fate was beyond his control, as the townspeople were talking about, was lying in a rocking chair in the yard, basking in the sun.
As the sun shone down, a handsome face slowly emerged.
But at this moment, his face was frighteningly pale. If someone saw him late at night, they might think he was a zombie.
"Second brother, second brother."
A joyful voice suddenly came from a distance.
Then, a man who looked a year or two older than Lu Xiao rushed into the yard. He was Master Xingdou's eldest disciple, Zang Hai.
"Second brother, look what I found."
At this moment, Zang Hai's forehead was covered in sweat, his body and face were covered in mud, and he had a basket on his back filled with various medicinal herbs.
After entering the courtyard, he immediately saw Lu Xiao sleeping on a recliner.
He immediately fell silent, then cautiously lowered his steps and slowly approached Lu Xiao.
It seems like they are afraid of disturbing each other.
After coming over, he didn't wake the boy up directly, but sat quietly beside him and watched.
After a long time, Lu Xiao finally woke up from his rocking chair.
Turning around and seeing Zang Hai next to him, he called out.
"Brother?"
When Zang Hai heard Lu Xiao's voice, he quickly turned around in surprise: "Second brother, you're awake. Look what I found today."
As he spoke, he picked up the backpack next to him and took out the contents one by one as if presenting treasures.
Astragalus, Atractylodes macrocephala, Chinese yam, white lentil, licorice, jujube, Acanthopanax senticosus, Rhodiola rosea
They are all herbs that regulate qi and blood.
There was even a wild ginseng plant among them, which, judging by its size, must have been at least several decades old.
After seeing these things, Lu Xiao forced a smile on his face: "Brother, you are really amazing. You can even collect such precious medicines."
Zang Hai immediately said, "Of course I have learned all of Master's skills. Second brother, wait a minute. I will go and make some medicine for you."
After saying that, he stood up and ran towards the backyard carrying the backpack.
Seeing this, Lu Xiao said nothing.
Even though he knew clearly in his heart that these herbs were of no use to his body, he still did not stop Zang Hai.
As a human being, there must always be hope in life.
Now they are each other's only relatives in this world.
No matter who dies, the other will definitely collapse.
Therefore, even though he knew that the herbs were useless, Lu Xiao would still drink up all the medicine that Zang Hai collected.
What if there is a miracle?
This is not only his own hope, but also his elder brother's hope.
Thinking of this, Lu Xiao couldn't help but look up at the sky, and finally couldn't help but curse.
"This is a damned world!"
In fact, Lu Xiao has always had a secret, a secret unknown to even his eldest brother, who depended on him for everything.
He is a time traveler.
Eighteen years ago, he traveled to this world called Dayong.
When he first came through, he was very confused.
Because this world is not any of the historical dynasties he was familiar with in his previous life.
Through observation, he found that the background of the Great Yong Dynasty was similar to the late Ming Dynasty in his previous life.
But he was very sure that this was not the Ming Dynasty.
He had a relatively happy childhood.
Although due to premature birth, his health has not been good since childhood.
But he has a pair of parents who love him dearly, a big brother who protects him the most, a group of senior and junior brothers, and later a lovely sister.
His father was the director of the Imperial Observatory of the Yong Dynasty, a fifth-rank official.
Although he was an honest official, his family lived much better than most ordinary people.
But the happy days were too short after all.
In the cold winter of the sixth year of the Zhenshun reign of the Yong Dynasty, the Yong Dynasty assembled an army of 200,000 to attack Dongxia. However, Dongxia was completely defeated and eventually surrendered.
At this time, Lu Xiao's father, Kuai Duo, was ordered by the imperial court to build a Fengshan Terrace at the southern foot of Dansui Mountain.
It was not until the ninth year of Zhenshun that the imperial court returned to the capital.
On that day, Lu Xiao's family also suffered a catastrophe, with his parents and relatives all passing away overnight, leaving only him and Zang Hai to depend on each other.
Although Lu Xiao survived the incident, his already frail body suffered irreparable damage.
