The useless princess is causing trouble again

Front yard lobby.

"What a special necklace! I love it so much! Mother really put a lot of effort into it. She must be a very kind and gentle woman."

Shangguan Wei held the ruby ​​necklace in her hand, staring at Situ Chong, picturing the woman's appearance in her mind.

Situ Chong nodded lovingly, "Yes, mother is a gentle woman, she will be happy to see you."

Hong looked at Shangguan Wei lovingly and said softly, "The ruby ​​was a gift from His Majesty back then. Later, Aru ordered craftsmen to carve a peony flower specially for him, saying that it was a gift for Chong'er's future daughter-in-law. I hope Wei'er likes it."

Shangguan Wei's lips curled up slightly, "I like it, I like it very much, thank you aunt for keeping it for my mother."

Hong covered her mouth and chuckled, "Silly child, why are you thanking me? We are all family, and your aunt has always treated Chong'er as her own child."

Zheng Laohou couldn't stand the sentimental scene, "Okay, okay, the food is getting cold, let's talk after we finish eating."

Shangguan Wei looked at the arranged dishes, lowered her head to her bulging belly, and looked at Situ Chong for help, her eyes showing that she couldn't eat any more.

"Grandfather and aunt eat first, I'm not in a hurry."

"Silly child, you don't have to follow the rules at your grandfather's house. A military commander's family emphasizes heroism, and the grandson's wife eats as much as she wants."

"Uh, I get it. Eat as much as you want."

Shangguan Wei's brows were furrowed into a line, her lips were pouted, and her right hand holding the serving chopsticks was hanging in the air with no intention of putting them down. She looked very aggrieved.

Situ Chong looked at Shangguan Wei with amusement, lowered his head and put his ear close to hers, "Madam, don't force yourself. Be careful not to eat too much or you may have trouble digesting it."

Shangguan Wei rolled her eyes and said, "It's all your fault, my husband. You came right at dinner time. You're so annoying."

"Okay, it's my husband's fault. I'll let my wife punish me when she gets home."

Seeing Shangguan Wei not moving her chopsticks, Old Marquis Zheng said, "My granddaughter-in-law doesn't like the food. I'll have someone prepare a few more dishes. Chong'er, please take care of my granddaughter-in-law. After all, her family is not in the capital."

Mrs. Hong also interrupted, "Yes, Wei'er is alone in the capital, Chong'er really needs to be more considerate and caring. Wei'er can tell her aunt what she likes to eat."

Shangguan Wei quickly picked up a piece and said, "I like all these dishes, but I just can't eat them after having them in the palace."

Zheng Laohou and Mrs. Hong both groaned and said in unison, "Granddaughter-in-law/Wei'er, don't eat it, or you'll get an upset stomach."

Shangguan Wei put down her chopsticks with a red face, "Haha! The dishes made by the imperial chef are unique, and I ate too much because of greed."

Situ Chong interrupted at the right time and said, "Grandfather, aunt, why can't I see my uncle?"

Old Lord Zheng sighed, "Alas, there has been a drought in the area of ​​Xiasan Village. It has not rained for several months in a row. The people have no harvest and are starving. Ah Huai was sent to provide disaster relief and comfort the refugees. He has not returned home for more than a month."

After a moment of silence, he waved his hand and said, "It's a rare occasion for you to come here today, so let's not talk about these unhappy things."

The atmosphere in the hall became dull...

Shangguan Wei chuckled and took out a small round stick from the white cloth bag she was carrying. "Grandfather heard from my husband that you like weapons, so I am showing you a weapon to please you."

With a gentle pinch of the switch in his right hand, the small round stick opened from both sides and instantly turned into a silver-white spear with lifelike dragon and phoenix patterns carved on it, and the sharp gun tip flashed with light.

Zheng Laohou's eyes sparkled, "Wei'er, what kind of weapon is this? It's simply divine."

Shangguan Wei put the handle of the gun on the ground and said with a smile, "Grandfather, this is a weapon I designed and built. It is called the Hundred-Change Spear. By touching the switch with your hand, you can change its shape at will."

As soon as he finished speaking, the silver spear in his hand turned into a halberd, and he walked to the open space in front of the round table and performed martial arts exercises in a natural and relaxed manner. As the movements continued to change, the halberd in his hand turned into a large chopping knife, and each rise and fall was flexible and graceful, and every step was full of energy.

"Great! My granddaughter-in-law's martial arts skills are not inferior to many men in the world. The Hundred-Change Spear she made is very exquisite and better than any weapon in my grandfather's arsenal."

Shangguan Wei stopped what she was doing and said, "Grandfather, this is a gift from your granddaughter-in-law. Please come up and perform a little so that your granddaughter-in-law can see your elegance."

"Okay, okay, let grandpa show you a piece."

Old Marquis Zheng ran over excitedly, took the Hundred-Change Spear from Shangguan Wei, and started to perform martial arts in the hall, with the Hundred-Change Spear in his hand changing several forms continuously.

After the martial arts training, he was sweating profusely. "Weier, grandpa likes this weapon very much. If the Zheng family army has such a weapon, why should we be afraid of invasions from other countries?"

"Grandfather, my granddaughter-in-law can mass-produce the Variety Long Spear and provide it to the Zheng Family Army for free. We also have a five-shot crossbow. Please take a look at it, Grandfather."

Shangguan Wei took out an exquisite crossbow from a white cloth bag and raised her hands in the air. The crossbow was pure black, finely crafted, with a sharp arrow inserted into each of the five projection holes, like a black eagle ready to take off, its eyes fixed on the prey in front.

Old Marquis Zheng strode forward and handed the Variety Spear to Situ Chong beside him. He took the Mechanical Crossbow with trembling hands, and was extremely excited. "The Mechanical Crossbow currently only has a double-shot rapid-fire model, and it is also sold exclusively at Tianxia Diyilou, and the selling price is more than ten thousand gold. I didn't expect that my granddaughter-in-law would be able to make a five-shot rapid-fire crossbow, which is even better than Tianxia Diyilou. The little girl is as capable as any man."

Shangguan Wei smiled with her eyes curved, "Grandfather, try the five-shot crossbow. It has a range of a thousand meters and can easily kill the enemy."

Upon hearing this, Old Lord Zheng's eyes widened. "The range is a thousand meters, that's great. Grandfather, try it now."

He raised his right hand and aimed at the big tree a thousand meters away from the hall entrance. As the trigger was pulled, five black arrows flew out.

"Chong'er, granddaughter-in-law, come with grandpa to take a look."

"Grandpa, you don't have to leave so quickly. You'll see him soon."

The three of them walked out of the hall one after another. Hong looked at their backs, shook her head helplessly and sighed, "Please clear away everything on the table. They won't be back for a while."

The four maids said in unison, "Yes, ma'am."

Under the dense tree, five black arrows shot steadily into the tree, with a small part remaining outside.

Old Marquis Zheng was extremely surprised. "My dear, my granddaughter-in-law is really amazing. With such a weapon, Tianlan Country will no longer be bullied."

She seemed to have thought of something and fell silent. After a while, she looked at Shangguan Wei worriedly, "Zheng's army has a total of 150,000 people. The number of weapons needed is huge. Will it be stressful for granddaughter-in-law to take out so many at once? Otherwise, she can just take out some at random."

Shangguan Wei smiled and shook her head, "No, it's not a big amount for me. Grandfather, please wait for half a month, and I will ensure that it will be delivered on time." She took out a white Tianzi token from her left sleeve and handed it to Old Marquis Zheng, "Grandfather, take this token. You can take any weapon you like from now on."

Old Marquis Zheng picked up the white token with his left hand, was shocked when he saw the pattern on it, and blurted out, "Granddaughter-in-law, what is the relationship between Tianxia Diyilou and you?"
