C72 (1/2)

From the foot of the mountain to the top of the Qingshuanan, they had to climb up a total of three thousand bluestone steps. These three thousand steps were known as the Heaven Seeking Staircase, which meant seeking the Heaven's Inquisition Buddha Intent.

Those madams and mistresses who had great wishes or were unable to bear the despair, in order to express their sincerity, they would always spend a few hours climbing this Heaven Seeking Staircase, just to pray for the protection of the Buddha, to fulfill their wish.

Other than this road, there was also a flat road winding up the mountain. It could allow two horse carriages to travel side by side, and in less than two hours, they would be able to reach the Qingshuanan at the top of the mountain.

Feng Qiu and Tang Qian Yu walked on the main road.

Logically speaking, Tang Qing should not have any despair in her heart, nor would she believe in Buddha, so naturally, she wouldn't walk this Heaven Seeking Staircase.

After all, they were both young mistresses raised in a room. Normally, they would not even have the activity of strolling on a street, let alone walking far away.

Regardless of which lady it was, anyone who wanted to take this Heaven Seeking Staircase would have half their life wasted. So, unless they truly wished for it, no one would ever attempt to do so.

But since Tang Qian Zi had made such a request, and directly used the filial way to place the person on the fire, and since Feng Qiu was on the mountain eyeing him covetously, no matter what, Tang Qing could not reject, and Tang Qian Yun and Tang Qian Meng were even more so.

At this moment, the three of them had spent more than two hours climbing up to the position of less than 1000 steps.

Tang Qing's body was the worst, and was also the chubbiest. At the moment, her clothes were completely drenched in cold sweat, but her mind was firm.

However, Tang Qian Meng and Tang Qian Meng were different, the kind that led up to the ends of the stairs, was as if their lives in the future, would simply become hopeless.

These two would soon be driven mad.

However, when Tang Qing slowly said the two words ”Aunt”, the two little girls' eyes that were filled with anger and grievance instantly turned into hatred and grievance.

That's right, their aunt was still in Feng Qiu's hands.

Therefore, even though they knew that they had been implicated, they could only grit their teeth and continue on like this.

They did not want to open their eyes one day and see their own concubine also hanging on the beam of the house, carrying an unclear reputation on her body.

”Big Sis …” Tang Qian Yun looked at Tang Qing hesitantly. For a moment, she thought that Tang Qing understood everything.

”Hmm? ”What's wrong?” Tang Qing smiled gently.

”Are you tired? Don't be afraid, as long as you take it slowly, you will eventually reach the end. Mother was very kind to us, so it is only right that we do this for her. ”

Tang Qian Yun agreed. Seeing that Tang Qing seemed to submit to him willingly, she felt that her idea just now was just an illusion — —

The big sister had clearly not changed, but she was still silly because the Grand Princess was better than her own mother.

She gently pulled on Tang Qian Meng's sleeves, blocking the momentum of the question that Tang Qian Meng wanted to ask.

Regardless of whether Tang Qing was truly stupid or if she was just pretending, they could only treat her as if she was really stupid.

”Big Sis is right. We can support each other. Even if it gets dark, we can still reach it.” Tang Qian Yun said softly, then slightly pulled up the corner of her skirt, and continued walking up.

Tang Qian Meng had always listened to Tang Qian Yun's words, thus she smiled weakly at Tang Qing and continued to walk up.

Tang Qing took the opportunity to catch up, and didn't care about the Tang Qian Zi who was falling further and further behind him.

He had actually crawled all the way to the afternoon.

By the side of the mountain, the sun was already setting and the sun was setting like blood. Warmth was seeping through their bodies, and they were no longer under the noonday sun. Finally, their faces turned slightly pale.

At this moment, the four young maidens looked as if they had been fished out of water. When the wind blew, they immediately shivered.

Jian Ru, who was following them from behind, had a cold expression on her face. She waved away the servant girl who had been deliberately blocking in front of him this entire time, and then directly walked past Tang Qian Zi and caught up to him.

No matter how strong he was, his body would not be able to withstand the cold, harsh wind blowing in the mountain.
