She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

"The Canglan Kingdom has been holding back for so long, and they'll probably make a big move next spring. So it's time for you two to come to the court and share my worries. Recruit some more soldiers, train them, and prepare for war."

The emperor knew very well that he could not put all his hopes on opening the iron box, and he had to be prepared for the army approaching.

The two understood as soon as they heard it.

"I obey your command." The two responded in unison.

When the other clan members heard this, they also started to think about whether they should send their sons to the military camp to gain some experience. With military merits, their future would be easier.

But I am also worried about what would happen if I really went to the battlefield and never came back?

After the palace banquet, each family discussed this decision for a long time.

Some families, thinking about their future prospects, let their sons or grandsons try their luck.

If the royal family wants to have a better future, they must also work hard on their own.

If you just keep your status, you can only get a share. If you don’t fight for yourself, the next generation will be even further away from the royal line.

Starting from the eighth day of the first lunar month, Shangguan Ziqi attended the morning court every day, and then went to the military camp outside Beijing to start the work of increasing troops.

First, they will be drawn from the garrisons in various places, and then recruited locally.

Those who are concentrated in the suburbs of Beijing are not new recruits.

With just a little training, they can become a more combat-effective army.

By February, Canglan Kingdom had been watching for so long, but still had not received any news that Wei had opened the iron box.

Then he gathered another 100,000 soldiers and marched to the border between the two countries.

Yu Yuanzheng was helpless when he heard the news.

She tried too many times to open the iron box, but she just couldn't.

She didn't open it until March, when news came from the front that war had broken out again.

Sometimes she really wanted to just smash it open with a hammer.

But it is not possible, because there is a mechanism inside.

This ancestor left this thing behind purely to harm future generations.

No, she couldn't just pull it out blindly without any clue.

She needed to relax.

Maybe you've found inspiration.

In the evening, Shangguan Ziqi returned home and saw his wife staring at the iron box thoughtfully, and he felt extremely distressed.

He took it and randomly dialed a few numbers, but of course there was no response.

"Okay, take a rest. We have trained 100,000 soldiers and are ready to send them to Lin'an City." Shangguan Ziqi was worried that his wife was under too much pressure and would feel anxious.

Every day when he came home, he saw his wife fiddling with the iron box. Over the past few months, she had become a little haggard.

She saw holes in the portrait and couldn't find any clues.

"Husband, I want to go out and relax. I've been feeling more and more depressed lately," Yu Yuanzheng looked at Shangguan Ziqi pitifully.

Her father asked her to go out less, but it was no use staying locked up in the house.

"Okay, I'll go with you. Where do you want to go?" Shangguan Ziqi said gently.

Yu Yuanzheng just wanted to go out and relax, and hadn't decided where to go.

"How about we go and see Sister Ru? She's been gone for several months, and I don't know how she's doing now." Yu Yuanzheng suddenly thought of a place to go.

Mingyang County is a hundred miles from Beijing, and a fast horse can reach it in one morning. If you stay overnight, you can return the next day.

She hadn't ridden a horse for a long time, and she felt a little itchy.

"Okay, I'll take you there."

"Let's take the kids along too? Xiaoyue'er would probably love to play with Dabao and the others."

When Yu Yuanzheng thought of her lovely little niece, she felt a surge of sympathy for her. She had suffered so much at such a young age.

"Okay, wait for me to arrange things in the camp, and then we'll go the day after tomorrow." Shangguan Ziqi touched his wife's head lovingly.

Yu Yuanzheng raised her head and looked at him with a smile.

Their eyes met, and a warm feeling passed between them.

Yu Yuanzheng felt emotional. This was her husband, the father of her child who would accompany her through the long journey of life.

But she will be going to the battlefield soon, and if anything happens, she will lose him.

Thinking of this possibility, her heart suddenly tightened and her face turned pale.

"What's wrong?" Shangguan Ziqi asked gently when he saw that her face looked strange.

"nothing."

She must open the iron box, drive Canglan out of Wei, and beat them until they kneel down and beg for mercy, cede land and pay compensation.

Yu Yuanzheng had made up her mind and kept pestering Shangguan Ziqi that night.

This night was the most enjoyable night for the two of them after the birth of their child.

Shangguan Ziqi was almost late for the morning court session.

I went to bed late and my eye circles are a little dark.

Prince Jing saw him and came over to put his arm around his shoulders.

"Are you worried about the war and can't sleep at night?"

"Aren't you worried?" Shangguan Ziqi asked back a little guiltily.

"Of course I'm worried too, but don't I have you? I'm just your assistant, and my responsibilities are smaller than yours."

"There's something I need to tell you. My wife wants to go out and relax. Please bear with me tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I will accompany her for a walk." Shangguan Ziqi patted Cao Jinyu's shoulder.

"Hey, it's already this late, and you still want to go out with your wife to relax?" Cao Jinyu was incredulous.

"I asked you to get married soon, but you didn't. So you don't understand, life is interesting only when you have a wife." Shangguan Ziqi raised his eyebrows, and that smile really asked for a beating.

"You are such a good Shangguanziqi! I was wondering why you have dark circles under your eyes. It turns out that you are still being lax in the face of national crisis..."

Before he could finish his words, Shangguan Ziqi covered his mouth.

"Stop talking nonsense. This is in the palace. I dialed the code to midnight last night. Do you understand?"

The two of them walking arm in arm attracted the attention of their colleagues.

After the court was dismissed, Shangguan Ziqi explained the important matters to Cao Jinyu and then went straight back home.

It is no small matter for Madam to leave the house.

Safety is the most important thing.

He now has thirty secret guards under his command.

Arrange ten people to guard Qiyayuan at home, and take twenty people out together.

When the children heard that they could go out and play, they were all very excited.

The three BMWs are now only two years old. They can speak clearly and express what they want to say.

"Dad, I want to ride a horse." Dabao was the first to express his request.

"Okay, Dad will take you riding a big horse."

"Dad, I want to fly." Erbao was more interested in his dad taking him to practice Qinggong.

"It's boring." Sanbao felt that his two brothers only knew how to play exciting games, which was not fun. "Mom, catch butterflies."

"Well, our Sanbao is still the most elegant." Yu Yuanzheng appreciated Sanbao's hobby even more.

Because they are both girls and have the same hobbies.

The next morning, Yu Yuanzheng asked the maids to pack up the three children and get ready to leave.

The three little ones all knew that they were going out to play. When they were called, they got up actively and cooperated with the maid to dress them.

He said goodbye to the princess and left the palace.

Before leaving, the prince specifically instructed his son to take good care of his daughter-in-law and not to make any mistakes.

Yu Yuanzheng is now the only hope to open the iron box. If she hadn't said that going out to relax might be more conducive to inspiration, he would never agree to let his daughter-in-law leave the palace.

"Don't worry, father. I will definitely protect the lady." Shangguan Ziqi promised.

His martial arts skills now surpass those of the prince.

the student surpasses the master.

As a result, Yu Yuanwen was not in any trouble when they went out, but something happened in the mansion.
