She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

The prince casually talked about business.

"Father, it doesn't really matter whether my son accepts it or not.

After the New Year and the beginning of spring, I guess Canglan Kingdom will have almost finished waiting and will probably launch another war. It is very likely that they will send more troops. I will wait until my son goes to the border to receive them.

If I accept it now, the Emperor will definitely not let me go. My son still wants to spend more time with the children. He will have less time to spend at the border in the future."

Shangguan Ziqi now has a wife and a son, and doesn't want to be entangled in state affairs so soon.

Anyway, we have Zishu, the third prince and General Chen now.

He is not needed at the moment.

It is winter now and the New Year is approaching, so there will generally be no war.

"Well, it's up to you." The prince looked at his three grandchildren and thought about how he had been deceived by two old women for so many years.

I feel embarrassed to talk about letting my son take over the throne.

He should just work harder.

I guess my son is a little reluctant to take the throne of the Crown Prince. It's all my fault.

The next day, the prince went to the morning court.

After the court was dismissed, he was called to the imperial study by the emperor.

"My lord, please see your Majesty."

"No need to be polite. I only called you here, no one else. Please feel free to be as you please."

The two were both king and minister, and also friends.

A rare combination of king and minister.

"I wonder why the Emperor has summoned me here?"

"I received a letter from Master Huihai, which was sent to the palace. It said that Master Mingwu had returned to Huguo Temple yesterday."

Ever since Master Huihai specifically requested an audience last time, the emperor specially arranged for someone to contact him and not for him to come directly to the palace.

The spies of Canglan Kingdom are everywhere and cannot be completely eradicated, so even as the king of a country, he has to pay attention to keeping everything confidential.

"Then what does the emperor mean?"

"I plan to hold a sacrificial ceremony in the Huguo Temple to pray for peace and prosperity for the people of Wei in the next year. When the time comes, you bring everyone in the palace and let Master Mingwu see who in the palace can open the iron box." The emperor thought of a reason.

And he really wanted to go to Huguo Temple to perform this grand ceremony.

The Canglan Kingdom has been holding back for so many years, and it is estimated that they will launch a major attack next spring.

As the emperor of the Great Wei, he prayed for the peace of the entire Great Wei and reassured the people.

The Huguo Temple also enshrines the spirit tablets of emperors of all dynasties.

It is called the Huguo Temple, but in fact it is equivalent to the Imperial Temple, serving the royal family.

Of course, it also worships various gods and famous emperors, generals and heroes in thousands of years of history.

Including the third generation of Prince Rong and Princess Rong are also enshrined there.

Another year has passed, and he should report his merits and demerits over the years to his ancestors.

Losing a city now, although not a big one, is still a shame.

"Have you thought about it?"

"I've thought it through. Give the Ministry of Rites half a month to prepare, and let's set it for the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month."

"Yes, I will arrange for the guards."

The Ministry of Rites acted quickly.

It was the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

The ladies in the palace all got up early, and the princess had the little princess dressed up beautifully, like a fairy.

Of course, Yu Yuanzheng and Shangguan Ziqi also woke up the three children and dressed them warmly.

Yu Yuanzheng likes to take care of her three children herself, as this is the most direct way to build a bond between mother and child.

After the children were born, she and her husband separated twice, but their love did not diminish at all. On the contrary, the three children were particularly attached to them.

"Daddy, I still want to sleep." The little girl rubbed her eyes and had some complaints.

"Daddy will take you to see your great-grandfather and great-grandmother."

"Daddy, what is great-grandfather?" The little girl was curious. She only knew grandfather, but didn't know who the one with the two "Tai"s was.

"That's my father's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather."

"Oh, grandfather also has a grandfather?" Sanbao was even more curious. In fact, she was confused.

"Of course. We all have a grandfather." Yu Yuanzheng explained to her little girl with a smile and stuffed Dabao into Shangguan Ziqi's hand.

She also put a female version of a tiger-head hat on her little girl.

We'll be out for a long time today, so we need to keep warm.

The two sons wore the men's version of tiger-head hats.

Once you put it on, you will feel like a powerful tiger.

"Dad, let's go." Dabao pointed straight at the door as if he was going to fight.

"Mom, let's go." Erbao pulled Yu Yuanzheng's skirt under his feet.

The couple was ordered by their two sons to leave Qiyayuan and go to the main courtyard to go out with the princess.

As a result, Yu Chaoyang and Cao Nanhua had arrived early.

Seeing Yu Yuanyu holding the two children, Yu Chaoyang took the initiative to come over and help hold Erbao, but Erbao refused to let her hold.

He ran in front of the prince and grabbed his grandfather's pants.

"Grandpa, hold Erbao."

The prince was holding the little princess in his arms.

"Mine, mine." The little princess protested, waving her hands.

The little princess is now one year and four months old. She can't speak very well and can only say a few simple words.

She was saying that the father was hers and she couldn't hug anyone else.

The prince looked down at his pitiful-looking second grandson, and scooped up one on each side.

"Let's go." The prince gave an order, holding the two children and striding ahead.

Erbao was also strong and proud in his grandfather's arms.

Butler Li had already asked the coachmen to prepare the carriage.

On this day, many nobles and officials in the capital were asked to accompany him.

But only three families were allowed to bring their children and female relatives.

Prince Rong's Mansion, Prince Jing's Mansion and the First Prince's Mansion.

Other families are not allowed to bring female relatives.

The eldest grandson of the emperor and the youngest son of Prince Jingfu were taken to see the royal ancestors enshrined in the temple.

The same reason was given for Prince Rong's Mansion.

The prince put the child on the carriage and rode to the palace gate to join the emperor. Today he was going to protect the emperor's safety.

Then the family members of the prince's palace will have to be taken care of by Guan Ziqi.

He took Dabao directly to ride on the horse, which made Erbao so envious that he couldn't sit still in the carriage.

Chunlei went forward and picked the person up.

Erbao, who got what he wanted, showed off to his sister in the carriage.

As a result, the younger sister ignored him completely, as the little girl didn't like riding horses.

As soon as I left the city, I saw the emperor's carriage.

The emperor only brought the queen with him, and none of his other concubines.

Of course, the princes also have to participate, but the princess will not force them. They can come if they want.

The eighth princess didn't come because she thought it was cold.

Then they went to Huguo Temple together.

Each family followed closely behind the imperial carriage.

The monks of Huguo Temple had already been waiting at the gate.

Of course, the common people are not allowed to come to the temple today.

"This humble monk pays homage to His Majesty." Master Huihai led all the monks in the temple in kneeling and paying homage.

"Masters, please stand up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Master Huihai, are you all ready?" the emperor asked calmly.

"Your Majesty, everything is ready."

The emperor was very satisfied and walked ahead.

The eldest prince was pushed by the eunuchs and walked on the right side of the emperor, while the seventh prince, as the legitimate son, walked on the left side of the emperor.

Huguo Temple is a large temple, several times larger than the nearby Kutuo Temple.

The building is magnificent and is made entirely of glazed tiles.

Under the morning sun of winter, the golden glow and ancient charm are intertwined, adding a bit of mystery and solemnity.

Yu Yuanzheng walked at the back with her three children.

Shangguan Ziqi has been called away by the prince to check whether the entire temple is safe.

Only Zi Yue and Jiang Hua were following behind the princess with their child.

As you enter the temple, the first thing that catches your eye is a majestic archway engraved with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes, and unicorns offering blessings. Although eroded by wind and rain, it is still lifelike, demonstrating its extraordinary momentum and the accumulation of time.

Behind the archway is a large square with stone lions of various shapes placed on both sides, some standing majestically, some with lowered eyebrows and nodding heads, guarding the sacred road leading to the main hall.

The main hall is majestic and magnificent, with flying eaves and pointed corners. The golden glazed tiles sparkle in the sun, as if coated with a layer of sacred light.

This was Yu Yuanzheng's first time here, and when he saw this ancient temple, he felt a sense of reverence.

At this moment, a little monk came out from nowhere and approached from behind.

"I greet you, benefactor." The young monk bowed deeply to the princess. "Please follow me, benefactors. The master invites you."

"Lead the way." The princess understood immediately. The prince had told her and asked her to cooperate.

But Yu Yuanzheng was a little confused.
