There is also spring for passers-by

Han Siyuan is the eldest brother. Initially in the pavilion, his mother also told him why they didn't want to be together. If they were together, it would be unfair to his youngest brother, and the three brothers might become alienated because of this.

Han Siwei didn't notice the anger in his eldest brother's eyes. "Brother, Father has missed Mother for over twenty years. His study and martial arts training room are all hung with Mother's portraits. Seeing these things..."

Han Siyuan was furious. He reached out and grabbed Han Siwei, twisting him out. "All you've done lately is eat. You've almost become a fat pig! Get out! You want to go back to the Royal Family? Go back. Don't worry, the Han Family still has me and my third brother!"

I knew he would be the one to rebel.

Unexpectedly, just over three months later, the Queen Mother gloriously allowed Han Erbao to rebel.

"Big brother-"

Han Siyuan said coldly: "I have advanced to the sixth level of Martial King. You may not have a chance of winning if we fight! If you don't want me to fight, get out--"

Han Siqi heard that his eldest brother had kicked his second brother out of his dormitory, so he came to look for him.

"Han Erbao rebelled. What did he say?"

"He advised me to help Prince Ning and mother be together."

"What? This bastard dared to sell his mother! I heard that he sold his sons and daughters, but he actually sold his mother. This is unacceptable! The matter is more complicated than we thought. The Queen Mother is such a powerful old witch. She recognized her grandson just over three months ago, and she tricked Han Erbao into rebelling! And he even went home to sell his mother!"

Han Siyuan thought the word "selling mother" sounded offensive at first, but isn't this actually selling one's mother? It's so shameful.

Just because my mother respects their choice doesn’t mean Han Erbao can betray his own mother.

Mother doesn't want to be with Prince Ning, can't he see that?

Han Siqi's face was filled with smiles.

Han Siyuan asked, "You are serving in the imperial court. Has anyone given you any trouble?"

"The Emperor knows I'm of royal blood, so he's been pretty kind to me. I just copied some important memorials and documents, which isn't a lot. I've learned a lot from him, and even advanced a level last night."

As the two brothers were talking, a servant came to report, "Eldest Young Master, Third Young Master, Madam has come out of seclusion and is calling you and the Second Young Master to the Zhengqi Hall to speak."

When the three brothers came over, Wen Wan was sitting at the dining table with a full table of food.

"No matter how big the matter is, eating is more important than anything else. Let's eat first and worry about it later."

Han Siwei had become a picky eater because of the Queen Mother. If he had thought these dishes were delicious in the past, now he felt that they were not tasty at all.

Han Siyuan and Han Siqi pretended not to see it and continued to eat with gusto.

Wen Wan asked, "Erbao, is it not to your taste?"

"Mother..." He called out, looking at the warning eyes of his eldest and third brothers, "Mother, Father has always been thinking about you. Can you forgive Father for being with him..."

Han Siyuan stood up suddenly and said, "Han Siwei, don't be so shameless as to sell out your own mother. I think you've lost your mind to fame and fortune."

"But big brother, Prince Ning is our biological father, he doesn't mind Mom's..."

"Shut up!" Han Siyuan yelled.

Wen Wan raised her hand and gestured: "Everyone sit down and eat, we'll talk after you finish eating."

Han Siyuan was so angry at Han Siwei that he couldn't eat.

Wenwan still looks calm and composed.

She had long noticed the changes in Han Siwei.

The Queen Mother, the Emperor, and Prince Ning conspired together. If Wen Wan did not agree to marry Prince Ning, the royal family would ask for Han Siwei to be taken back. The Emperor had no children, and although Prince Ning had two sons, he did not think that the royal family counted. So they did not want to take the two back, but wanted to take Han Siwei back.

Han Siwei had been brainwashed for over three months by the Queen Mother and her attendants, who then deliberately had Prince Ning hang up Wen Wan's portrait. Princess Ning had also been behind this. Prince Ning hadn't touched her, and although they had done so a few times, she hadn't gotten pregnant. They couldn't let Prince Ning be childless, so the portraits were all painted by Princess Ning's brother, a skilled painter from her mother's side. He painted dozens of them at a time.

The other party had seen Wen Wan before, but Wen Wan was a female general in style, and she was painted to look like a fairy concubine. Apart from the facial features, Wen Wan couldn't see any resemblance.

Even with such a loophole-ridden matter, Han Siwei was fooled by them.

If Han Siwei really wanted to return to the royal family, Wen Wan would not stop him. Everyone has his own fate.

When Wen Wan finished her meal and put down her chopsticks, her three sons also put down theirs.

Aunt Tong brought her maid to bring water for washing. Wen Wan brushed her teeth every morning and evening. Her living habits were somewhat similar to those of modern people.

"Three treasures, why are you cultivating immortality?"

Han Siyuan thought for a while and said: "Don't forget your original intention, protect the peace of thousands of families, and let the people live in peace."

Han Siwei was still thinking.

Han Siqi replied, "Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, and shoulder the fate of the world."

Wen Wan had never said such words before, and she looked at Han Siqi with a higher regard: "Establish a mind for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, inherit the unique knowledge of the predecessors, and create peace for all generations." The brothers' aspirations for cultivation combined amounted to this, and the meaning was very close to this.

Wen Wan nodded slightly: "Erbao, what about you? These days you've been eating and drinking, following the Queen Mother around, and even learning to enjoy life. It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it's hard to go from extravagance to frugality. If you don't want to continue practicing, you can give up now. You've forgotten your original intention..."

Han Siwei scratched his head. "But mother, the Empress Dowager said that ascending to heaven and becoming an immortal is not that easy. If there really were immortals in this world, why is there no record of them in the unofficial and official history of the Great Zhou Dynasty? It's obvious that they are just kidding. People only have this life and no afterlife, so living well in this life is what matters. Mother, I am a descendant of the royal family. Enjoying wealth and glory is the natural order of things..."

Han Siyuan wanted to refute, but saw Han Siqi shaking his head at him.

Han Siwei has been successfully brainwashed, and he even questions his mother.

They have seen my mother's abilities, so how can they question them?

Wen Wan sighed, "Do you want to return to the royal family?"

"My father has no children yet, and he and Princess Ning's relationship is not good. It's so pitiful. My uncle still has no son. The Imperial Observatory says that my uncle is destined to be childless. My father only has two children in this life, my eldest brother and I. What will happen if we don't return to the royal family?"

Han Siwei was with the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother gave him whatever he asked for.

The Queen Mother doted on him very much and wanted to give him all the good things.

Wen Wan asked again, "I passed on the Heavenly Rank cultivation technique to you, and you... gave it to your uncle the Emperor and your father?"

"We are all blood relatives. It is really inappropriate for me to cultivate the Heavenly Stage while my father cultivates the Earthly Stage."

Han Siyuan was extremely disappointed.

If you can't see that it was a royal plot, you will be fooled.

Although he is a bit cautious and overthinks a lot, he is trying to prevent himself from being fooled by others.

He was not as smart as his third brother, but Grandpa Gongsun taught him a lot and said that diligence can make up for lack of talent.

Wen Wan asked: "I won't stop you from returning to the royal family if you want to, but once you recognize your ancestors, you will have nothing to do with the Han family. Do you understand?"

"Mother, that heavenly-level technique you taught me?"

"You can pass it on to them and think of it as a gift from me to the royal family. The royal family has already obtained two rare copies of the skills, and I won't give them any more. I raised my son for fifteen years, and they took him away for nothing..."
