After hearing this, the third old lady also thought deeply for a long time.
"Zhe'er, what do you think would happen if there were no more iron boxes in the world?" the third old lady asked with a long sigh.
"Mother, then it's up to each of us to return to the state we were in a hundred years ago." The third master replied respectfully.
"That's right, my Canglan people are tall and strong, and each of them is a brave and combative hero.
So that iron box should not have existed. If there was no iron box, I, Canglan, might have unified the world long ago.
The fertile fields of Wei are mine, and the mountains of Southern Shu are also mine. And I will not make sacrifices for your uncle, and live in Wei with so many humble people.
But there are no ifs in this world.
Well, if you can get the iron box, get it. If you can't, forget it. Report the truth to your uncle.
Canglan is sending out troops now, they should be reaching the border soon.
It's difficult to win if you don't have enough ability.
In the end, the prince may come forward. Then we should withdraw.
I'm forty years old now, it's time to go back.
My mother has waited so long for this day that her hair has turned gray. We have finally retired.
Don't worry, your uncle will give you a title of a prince."
The third old lady thought that since the country had made such a great sacrifice, it would not be a problem to ask for a prince title for her son.
"Yes, mother. But what about Zishu?" The third master looked at his mother with a pleading look. He couldn't even tell what answer he wanted.
"We'll talk about him later. He grew up in the first house, and we can't control him too much. The overall situation is more important. We can't let him delay our growth."
“Yes.” The third master had to lower his head and suppress his emotions. He couldn’t let his mother see the change in his expression.
In ten days, Shangguan Zishu would go to the battlefield, and the prince asked him to bring his wife and his concubine mother to the main courtyard for dinner in the evening.
Shangguan Ziqi and his wife also came.
It's rare for the two brothers to have a meal together.
Shangguan Ziqi was not very close to this younger brother, but they grew up together in the palace.
They are all sons of the king, and these people have taken good care of him.
When he was a child, his younger brother was bullied by some playboys in Beijing, and Shangguan Ziqi stood up for him.
When his younger brother did something wrong, he would teach him a lesson as an elder brother.
It's just that he spent most of his time learning how to be a qualified prince, and the two brothers had very little time to play together.
Shangguan Zishu appeared in the main courtyard on time.
He came here with Yu Chaoyang.
He stayed in Shuxiangyuan for the past few nights since he returned home.
Ever since Yu Chaoyang's miscarriage, Shangguan Zishu never entered the Nanhua County Lady's bedroom again.
He always believed that it was Nanhua who plotted against Yu Chaoyang. Everything was fine before she entered the mansion, but the child was gone as soon as she entered.
He had been looking forward to the birth of that child.
That was his legitimate son.
The result was a false alarm.
No evidence has been found until now.
At this time, Nanhua also came, dressed in a fresh and refined manner.
Yu Chaoyang looks more energetic than when he lost a lot of weight.
"Husband!" As soon as the Nanhua County Lady arrived, she sat next to Shangguan Zishu.
A fragrant breeze blew into my nose.
The smile on her face was so gentle.
At the same time, it also carries a hint of flattery.
No matter how noble a county princess is, she is not as noble as the prince of Rongwang Mansion.
After getting married, the husband is the head of the family. No matter how arrogant she is, she has to restrain her arrogance.
"Yeah." Shangguan Zishu just responded faintly.
At this time, Concubine Luo also came.
"Zishu, Nanhua has been doing her duty since she married into the palace. You can't hurt her feelings again.
Chaoyang, you can't put the blame on Nanhua without any evidence.
You are already husband and wife, so you have to take on the responsibilities of a husband."
Concubine Luo felt a headache when she saw her son's attitude towards Nanhua.
Nanhua went to her and cried several times.
But the son seldom returned home, and when he did, he only stayed in the palace of the deceased prince's wife.
Even her mother couldn't stand it.
She has been married into the mansion, and she is the princess of Prince Mo's family. We can't just leave her like this.
As time goes on, Prince Mo's Mansion will definitely have opinions.
"My mother-in-law said yes. I will go tonight." Shangguan Zishu replied calmly.
This was his mother's request, so he couldn't refuse her opinion. Besides, he was about to go to the battlefield, so it was unknown when he would be back.
He really should give her an explanation.
Once you marry someone, it is impossible to ignore them for a long time.
After such a long time had passed, the anger in his heart had dissipated a little.
The situation has been exposed, but no evidence has been found.
He could only accept reality.
The child will have more in the future.
He could only comfort himself with this.
When the prince came back from the outer study, he saw four children crawling on the mat, with a wet nurse watching them.
The princess was washing her hands.
"Your Majesty." Several children and daughters-in-law stood up to greet him.
"Okay, everyone, sit down. I'll let you come to the main courtyard to have dinner together today. It's considered as a favor to Zishu." The prince also had some hope for Shangguan Zishu.
This ceremony was specially prepared for him.
"Thank you, King." Shangguan Zishu bowed slightly.
"Brother, sister-in-law, after my brother is gone, the family will depend on you to take care of them. I hope sister-in-law will put aside the past grudges and take care of Chaoyang more.
She was in poor health, and had been ill ever since her last miscarriage, and was often sick.
If a miracle doctor comes to the capital while I am away, I hope my elder brother and his wife can come forward and ask the miracle doctor to see Chaoyang."
He knew that Shangguan Ziqi and Yu Yuzheng had a very close relationship with the miracle doctor, and it would be easier for them to invite people than for the king to do so.
"Okay, don't worry about what's going on at home. Once you're on the battlefield, you're no longer the son of the Shangguan family, but a general and commander-in-chief on the battlefield. You're responsible for hundreds of thousands of troops and for protecting the people of Wei." Shangguan Ziqi taught like an elder brother.
"Yes, King 㫅 has told me many times before."
The meal went very harmoniously.
The Lady of Nanhua County would pick up some food for Shangguan Zishu from time to time.
Everyone saw his attentive and flattering look.
Concubine Luo was very pleased to see Nanhua put aside his airs and try to please his son.
After dinner, Concubine Luo pushed the Princess of Nanhua County to Shangguan Zishu and asked her to take her back to her own courtyard.
Yu Chaoyang did not show any dissatisfaction and even smiled very gently.
But Yu Yuzheng saw clearly that her smile did not reach her eyes, and there was even a hint of sarcasm in her eyes.
It has been a long time since I last stepped into this courtyard, and Shangguan Zishu felt very complicated.
He suppressed the urge to find out what was going on and walked into the inner room.
In the first half month after their marriage, the two lived a sweet life.
How happy he was at that time, thinking that he would become the son-in-law of the granddaughter of Prince Mo's Mansion was much better than being the son-in-law of the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion.
But who knew? It was this marriage that ruined his first child.
"My husband, it's been so long, are you still blaming me? I said I really didn't harm the baby in the Crown Princess' belly." The Lady of Nanhua County looked at Shangguan Zishu aggrievedly.
As long as there is no evidence, she will never admit it.
Shangguan Zishu looked into her eyes intently, trying to find some clues from her face.
But he found nothing, there was only a hint of pity on Nanhua's face.
