The third master pouted. The emperor had seven or eight sons, so he didn't feel sad about the death of Prince Jin.

He is his only child, and if he dies, he will be gone.

Can they be compared?

In the end, the last bit of rationality made him swallow these words.

The old marquis was very excited. At this moment, there was no need for the third master to ask for help. He just opened his private vault directly.

He respectfully took out the most precious set of armor in the private vault, which was worn by the second generation of Ningping Marquis on the battlefield.

The second generation of Ningping Marquis, the old marquis's biological father, is also a legendary figure.

The first Marquis of Ningping was a meritorious official who had helped Taizu to establish the previous dynasty, and was granted the title of Marquis of Ningping for his merits.

However, because he suffered many hidden injuries in battles in his early years, he died only seven or eight years after being granted the title of Ningping Marquis.

The second generation of Ningping Hou was truly a like-minded person. When the Dashun Dynasty was first established, the border was unstable. The second generation of Ningping Hou guarded the border for decades and quelled countless rebellions.

The old marquis also fought on the frontier with the second generation Ningping Marquis.

The armor worn by the second generation Ningping Hou was bestowed by Emperor Taizong. It is a symbol of honor and achievement, as well as a family heirloom.

It was kept in the old marquis's warehouse for decades, and was cleaned and re-sewn every year.

Now please take it out, at first glance, the armor seems to still carry murderous and bloody aura.

The old marquis stroked the armor with mixed feelings, and saw that some parts of it still had traces of battle damage, and he was distracted for a moment.

He then spoke, "This is the armor that your grandfather was given by Emperor Taizong. It has been stored in the warehouse for decades. Now it finally has the opportunity to see the light of day. Take it back to Yi Ge'er. I hope he can live up to his great-grandfather's reputation."

When the third master heard this, he was surprised to find that this armor, which looked unremarkable but a little creepy, was actually left by his grandfather?

Immediately, the armor looked tall and majestic in the eyes of the Third Master. Although it looked gray and inconspicuous, in the eyes of the Third Master, it had a golden glow.

He stopped crying and shouting, and just signaled to the people who followed him in: "Hurry, hurry up and put it on!"

Next, whenever the old marquis said that this was something left by his grandfather, the third master would shout, "Hurry up and pack it up."

He even felt that the servants were too slow to prepare the work, so he rolled up his sleeves and did it himself.

It was almost midnight when we packed three large boxes.

The third master was too lazy to go back. "It's getting late. I won't leave today. I'll stay with you for one night."

What else could the old marquis do? Could he really kick out his own son at this late hour?

Originally, I planned to let the third master go to the guest room to rest, but the third master had his own plans.

These things are all with the old marquis. What if they are swapped at night?

Or what if the old man changes his mind after a night?

Got to guard it!

He immediately said that he would stay with the old marquis for one night. The father and son had not been so intimate for many years, so he would accompany the old man tonight.

The old marquis was a little touched at first, even though it was exchanged for so many good things, but he was still touched.

Finally, when they got to bed, the old marquis was too old to bear it anymore and wanted to sleep.

The third master couldn't sleep, so he tormented the old marquis.

Just as the old marquis was about to fall asleep, the third master poked him awake: "Old man, besides these, think carefully, is there anything else good that can save Brother Yi'er's life?"

The old marquis was extremely sleepy and said patiently that there was no more.

The third master didn't believe it and prodded him several times. Finally, the old marquis exploded, "Besides asking for this and that, what else can you do? Count how much you've taken from me. You've almost taken my underwear, and you still want more? And I still have this old bone of mine, do you still want it?"

The Third Master's eyes lit up, and he slapped the bed. "Old Master, you're right! You should go with my brother Yi. It will definitely be good for him to have an old, strong grandfather like you by his side! Old Master, you're still strong, so why don't you come with us?"

"Get out!" The old marquis kicked the third master under the bed.

He finally realized that his other sons might only be after his money, but the third son was after both his wealth and his life!

From what I heard, he is almost seventy years old, and they still want him to follow the army to the northwest?

Are you afraid that your father won't die fast enough?

"Oh, oh, oh, old man, why are you so angry? If you don't want to go, then don't go! Why are you so angry? Well, if you don't want to go, why don't you give your capable men to a few Yi brothers? I'm not picky, just give me seventy or eighty!" The third master patted the dust off his butt and climbed back into bed with a thick face.

That night, the third master lobbied the old marquis until his lips were hoarse and he could not bear it any longer. Even if he kept an eagle for a long time, he couldn't endure it like this.

Finally, he gave in and bargained with the third master for a long time, lowering the price from seventy or eighty to twenty-five.

The third master then finished his work with satisfaction.

He started snoring loudly as soon as he lay down.

The poor old marquis was old and very sleepy. He couldn't fall asleep even with his eyes open, so he waited until dawn.

I thought it was daybreak, and the third brother, the living ancestor, could leave now?

No, the third master said that since we are here, we must take the person away, otherwise it would be a waste of time.

He forced the old marquis to personally order to go to the farm to call people back, and only after gathering twenty-five people did he return with a full load.

Of course, in the end, the Third Master, considering the large number of people and things, still gave the old Marquis a few compliments: "Although your grandfather said he was reluctant to give it away, he was actually quite generous. At least your great-grandfather's armor and weapons, those good things, although if he didn't give them away, they would have been left in the warehouse gathering dust, but if he gave them to us, we should be grateful."

"And here are these twenty-five skilled fighters, all hand-picked by your grandfather. One of them is worth ten. If anything comes your way, they'll have no problem protecting you and escaping."

"Two of them are from the northwest. They are familiar with the area and might be able to help you, right?"

"We must remember your grandfather's kindness. Before we leave tomorrow, we should kowtow to him and thank him for his care and love for his grandson."

These words were well-reasoned and even Lan and Fu Zhiyi couldn't help but look at the Third Master with a higher regard.

Seeing Fu Zhiyi staring at him without saying anything, the Third Master became anxious: "Are you stupid? We've got so many old things and people, and how many people have seen us on the way back? If you don't come and thank them in person, won't people think you're unfilial if you tell others about it?"

"Just go to the Marquis' Mansion, kowtow, and come back. You'll have gained fame and benefits! No one else can say anything to you!"

"What if your grandfather says something unpleasant? You've already gained all the benefits, and you let him say a few words. What's the cost? Even if he's a thousand bad people, he still hopes that you can come back alive and bring honor to the family, right?"

"Your grandfather wants to come down but can't find the way. If you take a step back and give him a way out, he'll definitely come down quickly! Besides you, who else can he count on to bring honor to the family? If you take a step back, there will be many benefits in the future!"

"Don't be so silly and talk about backbone at this time! You don't want those benefits, but you do want the bean buns and glutinous rice balls, right? Anyway, you can't let others get away with it!"
