Looking at Ruan Han's disgusted expression, Mrs. Ruan smiled bitterly.
She is a little crazy, but that's because he forced her to be.
If that's the case, then she'll really show him her nerves.
At this moment, Mrs. Ruan made a certain decision.
Ruan Hezhu turned defeat into victory and went from being the target of everyone's ridicule to becoming the prince's fiancée.
Lin Jing, who was thought by everyone to be the Crown Prince's consort, was in an awkward situation.
Everyone thought she would run away and return to Linzhou crying.
But Lin Jing did not do so. She continued to chat with Princess Chen, relax, drink tea and recite poems with the young ladies of various families.
It seemed like she really just came to accompany the princess.
She didn't care at all about the strange looks from everyone.
Ruan Hezhu's method was indeed beyond her expectations. Just by presenting a treasure, she was able to change King Chen's mind, which was beyond her expectations.
However, she is the legitimate daughter of the Linzhou governor and represents the reputation of the Lin family. Even if she does not become the crown prince's consort, she cannot lose face.
If she wanted to leave, she would wait until Song Yu and Ruan Hezhu got married.
She also wanted to congratulate them.
Since she didn't mention leaving, Princess Chen, who already felt guilty, naturally wouldn't chase her away.
She stayed in Prince Chen's mansion like this.
Jiang Family
They were also shocked when they learned that Prince Chen suddenly proposed marriage to the Ruan family.
In the previous life, King Chen chose Ruan Hezhu because she was rich and powerful, and had the support of King Xuanyang behind her.
But this time, Ruan Hezhu had nothing, and the candidate for the Crown Princess that Prince Chen wanted was also Lin Jing.
Why did you suddenly change your decision?
"Dad, Mom, I've done some research. On the day Prince Chen changed his mind, he met with Uncle San and Ruan Hezhu."
Jiang Chuyuan said in a deep voice that Ruan Hezhu went to Prince Chen's Mansion openly and everyone knew it.
Jiang Weiyan met in private, and outsiders didn't know about it.
It took him a lot of effort to find out.
"Could it be related to Third Uncle?"
"No, you know your Third Uncle's abilities better than I do. Although he has some strategies, he can't influence King Chen's decision."
Yu Shulan shook his head to deny it, and added that Prince Chen wanted to win him over just to use him to deal with his own side, not because he valued his talent.
Therefore, King Chen would ignore Jiang Weiyan's opinions.
"That can't be the case, is it really because of the painting that Ruan Hezhu gave him?"
Although this is ridiculous, there is no other possibility.
Nothing has happened recently that would suddenly change King Chen's decision.
[Painting. Although Prince Chen loves calligraphy and painting, he loves power even more. No painting can make Prince Chen change the choice of the Crown Prince's Consort.]
[The only possible reason for his change is that he saw Ruan Hezhu's value and that Ruan Hezhu could give him stronger support in his fight for the throne.]
After hearing their conversation, Jiang Qingwan couldn't help but wonder what Ruan Hezhu could rely on now.
Her greatest advantage is nothing more than her modern knowledge, and the only thing she can use to fight for power and profit is weapons.
[She couldn't possibly have invented guns and explosives by now.]
Jiang Qingwan felt a chill on her back. At the end of the book, Ruan Hezhu's ambition grew greatly.
Ruan Hezhu was not content with being a queen. She eliminated Song Yu and ascended the throne as emperor. She even created firearms, hoping to unify the world.
The book ends abruptly here, and readers only think that Ruan Hezhu has grown into a true heroine, but they forget how much she would destroy the world if she used firearms to unify the world.
Hearing her thoughts, Yu Shulan's hands couldn't stop shaking. She never thought that Ruan Hezhu would be so ambitious.
"Wenxia, it's time for the young lady to go to bed. Take her back to rest."
"yes."
After Jiang Qingwan was taken away, Jiang Chuyuan asked with concern.
"Mom, what did my sister say just now?"
He had never seen his mother so flustered.
Yu Shulan took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and told her daughter everything she had just said.
Even Jiang Chuyuan, who was usually calm, was shocked after hearing these words.
"I really underestimated Ruan Hezhu. Her ambition is so big."
"Maybe not yet. Right now, she just wants to be the Crown Prince's Consort or the Queen, but once she sits in that position, her ambition will swell."
Ruan Hezhu's thoughts are different from theirs, she has a strong sense of independence.
In her mind, women can also become the common rulers of the world, so it cannot be said that her idea is necessarily wrong.
But in order to realize her own ambitions, she hurt the people and made them suffer, which was wrong.
"From what Wanwan said, that thermal weapon is very powerful. It seems that with it, Ruan Hezhu's dream of unifying the world is not wishful thinking."
"These are all later stories. If she really provided this kind of weapon to Prince Chen, then the capital would be in danger."
Jiang Chuyuan's face was solemn. "To make weapons, you definitely need iron. I'll first send someone to check the iron shops in the capital to see if Ruan Hezhu makes any."
This is just Jiang Qingwan’s guess now, and they still need to confirm it.
"Okay, go check it out first."
Yu Shulan said in a deep voice, "This matter is of great importance and must be kept secret."
"good."
Jiang Chuyuan nodded in agreement.
Three days later, when Jiang Chuyuan appeared with some drawings, he immediately called his family over.
"Brother, what is this?" Jiang Dingbei asked in confusion, looking at the drawing.
"Is this your wedding gift to your sister-in-law?"
"This is something Ruan Hezhu gave to Prince Chen. It was because of this that Prince Chen made Ruan Hezhu his Crown Prince's consort."
Jiang Chuyuan explained, "I got these from a blacksmith shop."
【This is a fire gun.】
Seeing these things, Jiang Qingwan felt relieved.
Fortunately, she has only developed the fire musket so far. This thing is not very powerful and its accuracy is not very high. Although it is still very powerful for the era of cold weapons.
[But it's not impossible to fight back. As long as she doesn't take out the bomb, everything can still be salvaged.]
She remembered that in her previous life, Ruan Hezhu spent more than 20 years to develop a bomb, and she probably still doesn't know how to do it now.
But she seemed to have regained her memories of her past life. Jiang Qingwan was not sure whether Ruan Hezhu had only recovered part of her memory or remembered it all.
Jiang Weizhen looked at the drawings in deep thought. He already knew what Jiang Qingwan had said.
He was worried when he thought that this weapon could change the era.
"If this weapon is so powerful, how should we deal with it now?"
King Chen has just been obtained, and they must come up with a countermeasure as soon as possible to stop it.
"Iron limit."
【Iron limit.】
Jiang Chuyuan and Jiang Qingwan blurted out at the same time.
Jiang Qingwan looked at her elder brother with joy. Such a smart elder brother was simply her mouthpiece.
