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.

Tang Qing naturally could not handle this, she had already told palace mama before she prepared to climb the mountain.

The two of them followed her up the mountain, while Su Yun protected her and went up the mountain to check on the situation.

Tang Qing took advantage of Jian Ru's protection to swallow the pill, her chest started to loosen up.

"Big sister is truly fortunate to have such treatment when begging for Buddha."

Tang Qian Zi said while gasping for air. Her pale face was filled with exhaustion, but she did not forget to fall into Tang Qing's pit.

She was just mocking herself for being dishonest with the Buddha.

Tang Qing laughed coldly in his heart, but didn't reveal it on the surface, and only nodded at Jian Ru.

"As expected, mama's intentions were still the same as before. She told you to bring your cape. Right now, it's extremely cold. Quickly go and take a look, do you still have any extra cloaks on?"

There was naturally a cape, and it was even identical to Tang Qing's cape, causing people to be unable to tell if there was anything wrong with it.

Tang Qian Meng and Tang Qian Yun immediately put on their capes, but Tang Qian Zi's face was purple.

He wanted to refuse, but in the end, he couldn't resist the cold. Shame filled his face as he sent the servant girl to get a cloak to wrap herself up as well.

Tang Qian Yun and Tang Qian Meng let out an unfathomable sneer at the same time. Tang Qian Zi was enraged, and became even more angry and embarrassed, but she didn't dare to say anything more.

Tang Qian Yun and Tang Qian Meng were more active, and had their own aunt supporting them in their hearts, so it could be considered better.

Tang Qian Zi, on the other hand, relied on the hatred in her chest. Tang Qing's eyes were calm, and only she relied on her strong willpower that surpassed the limits of her physical body.

As a result, when they saw that the top of the mountain was right in front of their eyes, Tang Qian Yun and Tang Qian Meng could not even move a single step.

Only Tang Qing's footsteps were still the same as before, neither fast nor slow, and each rhythm was no different from the time when she had just climbed the mountain.

"Big Sister, I, I can't walk anymore. Can you help me?"

Tang Qian Zi's expression was ugly as she called out softly. Her face was pale but as she said these words, her entire face turned from green to green very quickly.

Tang Qing's movements slightly paused, she could hear that something was amiss with Tang Qian Zi!

"My, my chest hurts!" Tang Qian Zi could not help but moan as he held onto his chest. His face was twisted into a mess because of the pain.

She reached out her hand and grabbed the corner of Tang Qing's clothes, "Big, big sister, you, help me! I feel so bad!"

Tang Qing staggered and almost rolled down the mountain path. Luckily she extended her hand to support the mountain wall, grabbing onto a protruding rock on the mountain wall, then she steadied herself.

In front, Tang Qian Yun and Tang Qian Meng turned their heads when they heard her, and when they clearly saw her expression, they immediately became afraid.

"What's wrong?"

The two of them asked in unison. They wanted to come over, but their hands and feet were too weak to move.

"My, my chest hurts so much!"

Tang Qian Zi screamed as she tried to drag Tang Qing forward. Unexpectedly, she slipped and her entire body fell backwards!

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" "Be careful!"

Tang Qian Yun and Tang Qian Meng screamed in fear, and their small faces instantly lost all color.

Tang Qing's heart tightened, and in the next moment, her entire body slipped along with her feet, and she fell face-first onto the stairs!

Moreover, he would definitely roll down the mountain path!
