After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

The eyes of the young wife of Duke Chengguo were very warm, and they were filled with strong anticipation, but behind the anticipation was despair like an abyss.

If even the young lady of Duke Ji is unwilling to help, the young lady of Duke Cheng doesn't know who else she can ask for help.

No matter how incompetent the Crown Prince of Chengguo was, he was still her husband and the pillar of her family. If he really passed away, it was still unknown whether the position of Crown Prince could fall into the hands of her son.

At that time, how would he and his son gain a foothold in the huge Chengguo Mansion?

The young wife of Duke Ji opened her mouth, but finally shook her head: "There is nothing I can do about this. The man in our family is a loser. He finally got a job to deliver the imperial edict last time, but he messed it up. The government and even our old Duke don't like him."

And to be honest, even if there really is a way, the young lady of the Duke of Ji might not give her all to help.

The envoys from the north came this time to negotiate peace with the Great Zhou. The prince of Chengguo killed the envoys from the north, which will surely cause trouble in the peace talks.

His son is still in Yunzhou, and his good friend Mrs. Niu and her family are also in Yunzhou. If a war breaks out on the border, what should they do?

The young lady of Duke Ji pursed her lips. She was not as righteous as Mrs. Niu. She just hoped that her relatives and friends could live in peace and safety.

If sacrificing the prince of Chengguo can bring peace to the world, then why not?

Princesses of the Great Zhou had also gone to the north to marry, and countless women had been sent to the north in previous years.

He is just a son of the Chengguo Duke...

The young wife of Duke Chengguo closed her eyes tightly, feeling despair in her heart!

The young wife of Duke Chengguo stood up and walked out without saying a word. She seemed to have lost all her strength and her steps were unsteady. If the maid had not been quick to help her, the young wife of Duke Chengguo would have fallen flat on her face.

The streets were bustling with people, the cries of hawkers were endless, and the noise of carriages, horses and people merged into one in the bustling market.

The young wife of Duke Chengguo did not take a carriage, but walked aimlessly among the crowd.

In the shops on both sides of the street, customers were chatting while buying things.

"Duke Chengguo means this is going to be a disaster!"

"He was so arrogant in the past. Last time, he robbed a courtesan and injured a wealthy businessman in Jiangnan. The businessman had nowhere to appeal. This time, he has finally hit a wall!"

"I heard that the northern envoy Wanyan Wushu not only demanded a high price for compensation from the young emperor, but also demanded that the prince of Chengguo pay with his life!"

"Alas, Chen Guogong has done more harm than good! The Tartars were afraid of the great general Gu Nanxi, so they proposed peace talks, but he handed the ready-made target to Dazi! If I were the Tartars, I would also hold on to this matter and bite off a big piece of meat from Dazhou!"

"It's said that it takes two to tango! The same is true for a fight. Maybe this is a trap deliberately set by the Tartars?"

"That's all because of the stupidity of Prince Chengguo. He jumped into the trap set by others?!"

The servants of Duke Cheng lowered their heads and shrunk their necks, following closely behind the young wife of Duke Chen.

If the peace talks between the Tartars and the Great Zhou fail, the Prince of Chengguo will probably be drowned in the spit of the people of Kyoto!

Before she knew it, the young wife of Duke Chengguo was in prison. After spending a lot of money to bribe people, she was able to meet the eldest son of Duke Chengguo.

This is the first time that the Duke's wife has come to the prison.

The prison was dark and damp, and the air seemed to be able to squeeze out water, and it was filled with the smell of decay and corruption.

Occasionally, you can hear the clanking sound of iron chains colliding with each other.

The cell of the Prince of Chengguo was about ten feet square. The walls were built with rough large stones, and the pillars of the doors and windows were tied with iron bars and chains that were almost as long as my forearms.

However, after just one short night, the Prince of Chengguo had already behaved beyond recognition. When he saw the Young Lady of Chengguo, he immediately rushed to the door, grabbed the thick doorpost, and spoke in a hoarse and anxious voice.

"Madam, go tell father that I've been tricked! I didn't let them beat anyone to death! I told them to stop, but they didn't listen! Ask father to check Bai Xing who's by my side! There must be something wrong with him!"

The young wife of Duke Chengguo had no expression on her face: "He is dead. His whole family was burned to death last night!"

The expression on Prince Chengguo's face froze and he fell to the ground randomly. He knew that he was finished!

Being used as a gun by the envoy from the north, no matter what decision the emperor makes in the end, he is finished!

The young wife of Duke Chengguo was also very aware of this. Her eyes were filled with tears, but deep within them was a burning rage.

"Didn't you say you were going to ask for help for my son? Why did you go to the courtesan again?! Why didn't you die there together?!"

Why do you want to live? Why do you want to bring trouble to the entire family of the Duke's Mansion? !

The Prince of Chengguo looked at the Lady of Chengguo in disbelief: "One night of marriage equals a hundred days of love. How can you say that?"

"Back then, every time the general was in danger, didn't you say that the general should die to atone for his crime and not bring trouble to the Yongchang Marquisate? Why is it that you can't do that now that it's your turn?"

"She is a woman and I am a man, how can it be the same?!"

"I wish you were a woman! If I were the son of the Duke of Chen, even if I did nothing, I would still be better than you!"

The young wife of Duke Cheng scolded the eldest son of Duke Chen harshly in prison, and the anger in her heart finally dissipated a little.

She made a decision. She wanted to send her son to Baichuan Academy! Baichuan Academy in Yunzhou!

This time she was determined. No matter whether the old lady was dead or alive, nothing could stop her from sending her son to Yunzhou!

……

In the main hall, all the civil and military officials dressed in crimson palace robes bowed their heads and remained silent.

The young emperor, wearing a black robe embroidered with a pattern of soaring dragons over the sea and edged with gold thread, sat high on the dragon throne.

The beads hanging from the crown on his head blocked his slender yet sharp black eyes, and his thin lips were tightly pursed together, showing his owner's displeasure.

Outside the palace gate, the guards and palace maids stood there quietly like terracotta warriors, not daring to move.

Birds landed on the eaves, tilting their heads, as if they were also curious about what these humans were doing.

"Emperor of Great Zhou, five of our men died this time, one of whom was the nephew of the Right Wise King. How do you plan to explain this to us?"

Wanyan Wushu is pressing forward step by step, obviously intending to cause trouble!

He had a rough and cold appearance to begin with, and now his fierce eyes swept across all the civil and military officials, his whole body emitting a murderous aura.

The timid minor officials who had never faced the Tartars directly had their legs trembling slightly.

The young emperor said nothing.

The atmosphere in the hall became increasingly tense.

Master Tong said lazily, "The peace talks between these two countries are like doing business. Envoy Wanyan, if you are willing to negotiate, why don't you state your demands first?"
