Jiang Sheng stood beside He Zhao and looked directly at He Zhengdao.

"General He, no doctor would be so sure of what he said. After all, accidents can happen during the treatment of any disease. I understand General He's concern for Madam's health, but please don't question my ability as a doctor.

I have said so, and I will certainly do it.”

She has both the system and the healing ability, so it is not difficult for her to save Nie Wushuang's baby. What's more, Nie Wushuang is her mother's good friend, so she will do her best.

He Zheng felt a little relieved when he heard her say this.

"In this case, I will have to trouble Dr. Jiang from now on."

Jiang Sheng nodded.

He Zhao accompanied Jiang Sheng out of the front hall and said softly

"Brother is very nervous about sister-in-law, so please don't be offended by his words."

Jiang Sheng smiled and shook his head

"No, it's obvious that General He is worried about Madam He. It's normal for them to worry about the unknown."

"Sister-in-law, you have taken a lot of trouble with this pregnancy. My elder brother loves my sister-in-law all his life. To him, she is not only his wife, but also his confidant and comrade.

If I lost my sister-in-law, I really don’t know what my brother would become.”

Jiang Sheng nodded in silence, and after a long while he said with emotion

“They loved each other so much, but they were still caught up in the secular world and forced to add someone else between them.

The lady watched her husband give birth to a child with someone else, and she didn't know how she felt. "

He Zhao looked at her sideways and said with a faint smile

"Dr. Jiang also had such a bitter and vengeful day? Let me tell you another story?"

Jiang Sheng raised his eyebrows and looked at him

"All ears."

As the He family's legitimate descendants had died or been injured, leaving only He Zheng and He Zhao, when Nie Wushuang first got married, the elders of the He family began to urge her to give birth.

But what no one expected was that later on, Nie Wushuang was injured and could no longer have children.

As soon as the news came out, they proposed that He Zheng take a concubine. At that time, He Zheng had just taken charge of the He family and had many things to do, so he refused on this grounds.

It's okay to hide for one or two years, or even two or three years, but he can't hide forever.

The elders' hair turned white with worry. They also roughly understood what He Zheng meant and knew that it was no use continuing to argue like this, so they all went to the door together.

The elders in the clan were already very old, with thick beards. They cried bitterly in the general's mansion, talking about the He family from their ancestors to the present day.

It is said that it is not easy for the He family to guard Bianjiang City and survive until now. It is said that every elder in the family is heartbroken to see the He family go from a prosperous family to its current small size.

In the end, they even threatened to commit suicide.

Jiang Sheng sighed.

"Those elders are all meritorious officials of the He family. They cannot be beaten or scolded. They threatened to kill themselves and even brought out the He family's ancestors.

It is no wonder that General He could not withstand the pressure. Since ancient times, it has been difficult to be both loyal and filial. "

I guess no one can stand it.

He Zhao shook his head and laughed

"No, my eldest brother never gave in from the beginning to the end."

He Zheng was filial, kind, brave and good at fighting. He suffered countless injuries while defending Bianjiang City but never complained.

The elders came to visit because of this, but they didn't know He Zheng.

"Although my eldest brother is filial, he is not pedantic. Having grown up on the battlefield, he has a very clear view of life and death.

He often said that the He family had the final say in Jiangcheng and enjoyed supreme glory, but wasn't this glory also another kind of cage?

Bianjiang City not only trapped those prisoners, but also trapped our He family."

The He family has been in this vicious cycle for many years. All the men have gone to the battlefield, and some have become disabled and died young, while others have died in battle. Now the entire family consists of the elderly, the weak, women and children. What does it matter even if there is a higher honor?

This was also the reason why He Zheng refused to let He Zhao join the army. He Zhao still remembered that his elder brother said to him very seriously at that time.

“The world is vast, far beyond the reach of a small Bianjiang City. The He family has been trapped here for too long, so long that they have forgotten what the outside world looks like.

You are still young, we cannot keep you here, go out and do what you like. It is enough for one of us to die on the battlefield."

He knew what his eldest brother meant. His father passed away early, and his mother worked hard to take care of them and the family, and suffered a lot.

There were only two children left by their mother, so one of them had to stay to take care of her in her old age and see her to the end of her life.

Therefore, his freedom now is all due to his eldest brother, who single-handedly shoulders the responsibility of the He family.

"My eldest brother doesn't care about having children. He always says that it would be a blessing if he and my sister-in-law can grow old together. If not, if we leave so many children behind, my sister-in-law will have to suffer like my mother. What's the point of this?"

"So... it's Madam..."

He Zhao nodded.

"It was my sister-in-law who finally stood up and said that she would take a concubine for my eldest brother and expand the He family. Only then did the elders leave."

Jiang Sheng: "General He must be very angry..."

He Zhao said softly

"Of course. The first and only time my eldest brother didn't talk to my sister-in-law for more than half a month. Later, they reconciled because my sister-in-law was sick."

Jiang Sheng admires Nie Wushuang very much

“If I were asked to take a concubine for my husband, I would definitely not be able to do it, even though women should strictly abide by the three obediences and four virtues.

But my husband said that love should be a lifelong thing for two people, and it would be too crowded if there were three people."

Nie Wushuang loves General He so much, she must be the one feeling the most uncomfortable.

He Zhao hummed softly.

"My sister-in-law was always in tears during those days, and she also had to take care of my eldest brother's concubine. Later, she fell ill. Fortunately, my eldest brother later thought of a solution."

"A solution? What solution?"

"Ruojun, Ruolan, and Ruozhu are actually not my eldest brother's children."

"what!"

What kind of secret of the rich is this?

Jiang Sheng stammered.

"Then they...they..."

He Zhao whispered

"They were adopted by my eldest brother from outside."

After Nie Wushuang reconciled with He Zheng, he fell ill, so the matter of taking a concubine was arranged by He Zheng alone. He found this woman from somewhere, and she lived in his mansion for several months with good food and drink.

He would walk around the city every day with a fake belly. When the due date came, he would bring back a baby girl and claim that his concubine had died or been sold.

"Did all three of them come here like this?"

He Zhao nodded

"That's all true."

"Do they know it themselves?"

He Zhao shook his head

"I don't know. Except for those three, we all know."

Jiang Sheng was a little surprised

"The old lady also knows?"

"Of course, she might have had some ideas about this matter. My eldest brother doesn't have so many tricks up his sleeve."
