I am happy to be a mother in a famine year, I have a system to farm the land

"And what kind of person is your father? Haven't you seen clearly over the years?"

Seeing the tangled look on the prince's face, Prince Ling became serious.

If the prince has not seen clearly the emperor's character after so many years, then the prince's position will not be secure.

The prince is indeed an innocent person, but if he wants to sit in that position, he is not an innocent person.

And the prince was established as a prince since he was a child. His identity destined him to only choose that position in the future.

Once he fails, not only will he not be able to survive, but even his wife, concubines, sons... I'm afraid they will be liquidated.

No new king can let the former prince live well.

This is not only a threat to the new king, but also a threat to the people of the world.

The emperor's war on the side of the Qing Dynasty plunged the people into dire straits, and the national power of the Great Zhou Dynasty was also declining rapidly.

Nowadays, the officials in the court are corrupt, and the Great Zhou Dynasty is surrounded by foreign enemies. If there is another rebellion against the Qing Dynasty, the Great Zhou Dynasty may really cease to exist.

Thinking of this, King Ling looked at the prince with a little more pity.

He became a prince since he was a child, and he didn't even have the right to make his own choices.

This status gave him great honor, but it also deprived him of free choices in his life.

When the prince heard this, his eyes flashed involuntarily.

He couldn't understand what Prince Ling said, but he was his father after all.

In the heart of the prince, he still had some extravagant hopes for his father.

Seeing this, King Ling couldn't help but stepped forward and patted the prince on the shoulder.

"Once you take the position of Crown Prince, you are destined to have no way out."

"The Tian family is ruthless. When our family becomes the master of the world, no one can catch what we have to lose."

The prince couldn't help but look at Prince Ling.

"Where's uncle?"

Prince Ling raised his eyebrows, "Although I am a member of the royal family, I do not do royal things or hold royal power. Even if your father wants to be afraid of me, there is no reason to be afraid."

The prince was speechless for a moment.

Yes, the emperor has been able to let Prince Ling go until now, isn't it just because he poses no threat?

"Okay, Zhang Siyuan's matter still has to be decided by himself. If he doesn't want to go back, no one can force him."

……

At night, when Zhang Siyuan removed the bandage on Zhu Qiuqi's leg, she couldn't help but look happy when she saw that the wound on Zhang Siyuan's leg had grown new flesh.

Zhang Siyuan was confused, "What? Did you encounter something happy?"

Zhu Qiuqi cleaned his wounds and motioned to Zhang Siyuan to look at his legs.

"Your wound has already grown heart flesh. I'm afraid it won't take long for you to heal."

Zhang Siyuan's heart skipped a beat and he looked at his legs without saying a word for a long time.

But looking at his clenched fists, one could tell that he was not in a calm mood at this time.

Pei Yuan came to his senses and walked quickly to Zhang Siyuan's side.

Looking at the wound on Zhang Siyuan's leg, he even forgot to breathe for a moment, and just stared at Zhang Siyuan's leg.

"Sister-in-law, brother's legs are really...really healed?"

Seeing Zhu Qiuqi stand up, Pei Yuan stepped forward and grabbed Zhu Qiuqi's hand.

Zhu Qiuqi was taken aback for a moment, but looking at his excited expression, she smiled and nodded.

"It is indeed almost healed. When the flesh grows together, I can basically try to walk on my own."

"Okay, okay, my sister-in-law is really a miracle doctor! I, Pei Yuan, will never forget your kindness."

Pei Yuan was excited, but he forgot that Zhu Qiuqi and Zhang Siyuan were husband and wife.

"Big brother..."

Just when Pei Yuan was about to say something to Zhang Siyuan, he suddenly saw that Zhang Siyuan's face, which was gentle just now, had completely turned gloomy, and his heart skipped a beat.

Following Zhang Siyuan's gaze, Pei Yuan realized that he had held Zhu Qiuqi's hand for a long time.

As if being electrocuted, Pei Yuan hurriedly let go of Zhu Qiuqi's hand.

"Brother, I... I didn't mean it, I was just... just too excited..."

King Ling, who was standing outside the house, couldn't help but laugh when he heard the movement inside the house.

"Mr. Pei, come out and do me a favor."

When Pei Yuan heard King Ling's voice, he immediately ran out of the room as if he was being pardoned.

Looking at Pei Yuan's hurried back, Zhu Qiuqi couldn't help laughing.

But seeing that Zhang Siyuan still looked bad, Zhu Qiuqi couldn't help but coughed dryly.

"Okay, he didn't mean anything else, he was just too excited."

Zhang Siyuan snorted coldly, but didn't say anything more.

Zhang Siyuan thought of his previous plan and looked at Zhu Qiuqi a little more seriously.

"Qiu Qi, I have something to talk to you about."

Zhang Siyuan rarely looked so serious. Zhu Qiuqi also knew that what Zhang Siyuan was talking about might not be that simple, so she sat next to him and motioned for him to speak.

"Wars continue on the border of Great Zhou. Those Fanbang people have captured two cities of Great Zhou. Now the border has been targeted by those Fanbang people, and the people are in panic all day long."

Zhu Qiuqi understood, "You want to go to the border?"

Zhang Siyuan raised his hand and held Zhu Qiuqi's hand, "Qiu Qi, I'm sorry. Although I want to be with you all the time, but over the border..."

Seeing the unconcealed worry on Zhang Siyuan's face, Zhu Qiuqi sighed.

"If you really have such thoughts, I can only tell you that you can just go. You don't have to worry about things at home. I will take good care of my parents, and I will take care of Hou Chenchuan and Yi Jing."

Zhang Siyuan couldn't help but feel soft when he heard this.

But thinking of what they were about to face, Zhang Siyuan had to tell Zhu Qiuqi carefully about the matter.

"Do you know why I returned to Xiaozhang Village in the first place?"

Zhu Qiuqi shook her head, she didn't know about this yet.

She heard Pei Yuan call Zhang Siyuan general before, so she knew that Zhang Siyuan's status should be high in the army.

But today's military system is different from the era she lived in before. Later generations may be retired, but in this era, if you take any official position in the military, you will be in the military for the rest of your life.

If Zhang Siyuan had not withdrawn voluntarily, it would have been difficult to escape from the army.

But Zhang Siyuan has already taken the position of a 'general', why should he return to Xiao Zhangzhuang?This is indeed a doubtful thing.

"But what happened?"

Zhang Siyuan nodded, "The emperor is afraid of him because of his great achievements. If you still want stability, you can only let the emperor feel at ease."

Zhu Qiuqi's face suddenly turned cold when she heard this.

Birds do their best to hide their bows, and cunning rabbits die and lackeys cook.

She naturally knew such a thing, but she didn't expect it to happen to Zhang Siyuan.

Only then did Zhu Qiuqi understand where Zhang Siyuan's heart was.

It's not impossible to let him go to the border, but if he waits for another meritorious service, will the emperor be afraid of him after he returns to Beijing?

At this moment, Zhu Qiuqi felt a little sad for Zhang Siyuan.
