He said angrily: "If you die, everything in this palace will be mine! This palace should have been mine! You owe me this!" He became more and more excited as he spoke, veins popping out on his hands: "If it weren't for you, how could my father have died! I am the son of a prince, and I am pointed at like a rat crossing the street all day long. In the future, my children will also be branded as traitors! My descendants will never be able to hold their heads up! Why! Why!"

He shouted hysterically: "Why can you live in wealth and peace, but I have to live like this!"

The people in the room looked at his excited expression and remained silent for a long time.

After a while, Shang Ruoyi chuckled.

"Why?" She said calmly, "Why do you say that? You think it's unfair, but what about the tens of thousands of soldiers who died in the Jian River because of your father? Your father wanted to be promoted and wanted the throne, so he could step on the corpses of so many people to climb up? Why should he sacrifice other people's lives to make wedding clothes for him! He doesn't deserve it!"

"One general's success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of men. They are born to be stepping stones for others!"

As soon as the words fell, a shadow passed by and a crisp slap landed on his face.

"You should be thankful that your last name is He, otherwise I would have taken your life just now." Shang Ruoyi looked at him coldly and whispered, "No one is born lowly. The reason why you are where you are today is because you were born in Dingguo Palace. Without the protection of your ancestors, who are you? Do you think that the glory of Dingguo Palace today is because of your good deeds in the past?" Shang Ruoyi said coldly, "The princes of all generations are brave and good at fighting. This is one of the reasons why Dingguo Palace can stand in Tianshun for so many years. More importantly, every soldier dispatched by the palace sacrificed himself for the easy, fearless of life and death, reported the emperor's intention to the Golden Terrace, and helped Yulong die for the emperor. Even an ordinary soldier has such a mind. What can you compare with them?" Shang Ruoyi laughed sarcastically, "Just based on your appearance, you still have the face to inherit this throne. Ask yourself, are you worthy?"

He Jingxi, who was originally full of anger, was shocked when he heard her say that.

"This thorn fin grass, where did you come from?"

He looked at his palm, then at Shang Ruoyi's back, and whispered, "The Imperial Concubine gave it to me."

It was indeed her.

She stayed in the palace to delay time so that He Jingxi could poison her.

The old princess heard this, her eyes flickered slightly, she sat on the bed and sighed.

Before He Jingxi was taken away, he looked at Shang Ruoyi and whispered, "I'm sorry, thank you."

Shang Ruoyi ignored him. A person who does not know how to respect life does not deserve anyone's forgiveness.

He Jingheng put his arm around her shoulders and took her away, who was still a little angry.

After walking in the hall for a while, Shang Ruoyi became angrier and angrier, and whispered, "I shouldn't have held back just now. Why did I slap him?" As soon as she finished speaking, she flipped her palm, and a dagger appeared in it. She should have directly slashed his neck just now.

At this moment, a pair of warm hands covered her hands and took away the dagger in her hand. Looking at the sharp blade, He Jingheng smiled and said, "Is this the steel you mentioned?"

Shang Ruoyi nodded: "This is a piece of fine steel, much better than the black iron you mentioned."

"Now it seems that I really married a treasure."

"What's that?" Shang Ruoyi said with a smile, "I'll show you something more powerful tomorrow."

Early the next morning, He Jingheng brought Shang Ruoyi to the open space behind the military camp.

Several deputy generals were unhappy when they saw their son coming with a woman.

"The man was so fascinated by this woman that he brought her into the barracks. Could it be that he forgot that it is unlucky for a woman to come to the barracks?"

"Is that an ordinary woman? Open your eyes, that's the Princess Consort!"

"What about the concubine? Isn't the concubine a woman?" A bearded deputy general named Li Xiao shouted, "I haven't been home for several years. My son almost doesn't recognize me. I didn't say I would bring them to the barracks."

"Shut up." A leader of the Iron Feather Guards came over and said, "Who do you think you are? How dare you talk about the faults of the prince and his concubine behind their backs?"

The Iron Feather Guards are different from those deputy generals. The Iron Feather Guards are the personal guards of the Dingguo Palace. How can they be compared to those deputy generals?

Hearing him say this, they were not convinced, but they dared not say much.

Looking at the direction that He Jingheng and Shang Ruoyi left, she was extremely dissatisfied.

The two came to the open space, Shang Ruoyi waved her arm, and a cannon appeared beside her.

He Jingheng looked at the big guy in surprise.

"What's this?"

Shang Ruoyi thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Large firearms."

She placed the shell into the barrel and pulled the trigger.

"boom!"

The deafening noise caused the entire earth to tremble.

The flames shooting up into the sky startled those outside who didn't know what was going on.

"Is the earth-shaking going to happen?"

Smelling the familiar smell of gunpowder, Yunqi's eyes lit up.

What kind of firearm is this? It is so powerful!

The Iron Feather Guards were also very excited, they had seen the power of these things before, and if Princess Consort could bring them to the military camp today, maybe they could get them during future marches and battles. With these things, wouldn't it be easy for Tianshun to annex other countries?

He Jingheng looked at the hole made by the shell and was slightly startled.

Shang Ruoyi looked at his expression and whispered, "What do you think of this firearm?"

He Jingheng nodded: "A rare weapon."

Shang Ruoyi curled her fingers slightly and looked at him with deep eyes: "What do you think?"

He pondered for a moment and whispered, "A sharp weapon is good, but you can't have too many."

"What do you mean?"

"You once said that the world is so big that things will eventually unite and eventually separate. This weapon can help Tianshun expand its territory, but it will also cause people all over the world to be displaced. This is not what I want to see."

Shang Ruoyi looked at him and laughed out loud.

She put the cannon into the space and said softly, "I really didn't misjudge you. You can do it if you can save the world."

After the cannon fired once, there was no more movement. The people outside stretched their necks to look inside, but apart from the thick smoke that slowly dissipated, they could not see anything else.

"Tell me, how did this guy make such a big noise?"

"The noise just now was so loud that the ground shook. It was really scary."

Yunqi listened to their discussion and sneered: "What do you know? The one who made the noise was Concubine 녡."
