Chapter 466 Yunshi felt depressed.
"Because the armor is made relatively thin." Wei Ruo replied.
Wei Mingting took a closer look and found that it was indeed thinner than he expected.
Wei Ruo explained: "Father, don't worry. Although this armor is a little thin, its hardness is no problem and it can withstand ordinary sword attacks." "Why is this so?" Wei Mingting asked
.
"The steel used to make this armor was smelted using a large amount of fluorite, and copper was added during the production. After the workpiece was shaped, it was placed in a crucible, covered with charcoal, black beans, and soil powder, and heated outside the container to make it The carburization of the workpiece is stable and uniform, and the carbon potential is increased. This makes it have good ductility and also greatly improves the strength." "How does Ruo'er know
this?" Wei Mingting couldn't help but ask.
"The old master who made this armor told me the method. The hardness and ductility of iron can be changed by adjusting the ratio of iron to carbon." "Where is this old master? Can you give me
some recommendations for my father? Wei Mingting asked quickly, looking a little excited.
"Master has lived in the mountains for a long time and rarely interacts with people. I also got this armor by chance." Wei Ruo replied.
"That being the case, it's a pity." Wei Mingting couldn't help but feel regretful. "If he could teach this improved technology to the people in the weapons camp, it would greatly improve the combat effectiveness of our army." Wei Ruo did not answer
.
Wei Mingting continued: "Anyway, thank you Ruo'er for preparing this armor for my father. I am very happy for my father. I will take it to the battlefield." "I hope my father will be safe on the battlefield and be able to do it
every time." A great victory." Wei Ruodao.
"Thank you Ruo'er. I will do my best as a father." Wei Mingting looked at Wei Ruo with eyes full of emotion and relief.

Wei Ruo left Uncle Zhongyi's Mansion shortly after talking with Wei Mingting.
After Wei Ruo left, everyone in the Wei family checked the gifts that Wei Ruo had brought, but found that the few gifts Wei Ruo had brought back to the door were all in vain, and there was nothing valuable at all.
This made everyone in the Wei family who had been looking forward to it feel disappointed.
Especially Bai, she said bitterly: "What, to put it nicely, I really thought His Highness Prince Rui loved her so much, but the return gifts were all worthless things! It was too perfunctory!"
Mrs. Mo said warmly from the side: "That's not entirely true. You see, the gifts Princess Rui gave to her mother and third brother are very expensive. The four treasures of the study for Yichen and the scar removal ointment for Yilin are all valuable."
" Who knows? I only saw the bracelet from a distance. Maybe it’s not valuable. As for the cart of thyme, it’s even harder to say. It was said to be sent to the General’s Mansion. Who knows whether it was sent to the General’s Palace in the end? Should I go with ordinary wine or thyme?" Bai Shi muttered.
When Bai said this, Mo was speechless.
Yun stood aside and said nothing.
There was nothing prepared for her in the homecoming ceremony, and this attitude couldn't be more clear.
It wasn't that she was reluctant to prepare gifts, but she just didn't want to prepare them for other people in the house.
But her mother's position in her heart was the same as Bai's and others.
This huge gap made Yun's heart feel like a big stone had been pressed down on her.
When Mrs. Yun returned to Anxin Pavilion, she saw her husband packing his bags.
"When will your husband return to Taizhou Mansion?" asked Yun.
"I'll leave early tomorrow morning," Wei Mingting replied. His trip to the capital was authorized by the emperor, who asked him to come back in time to attend his daughter's wedding, so as soon as his daughter returned home, he would leave for the military camp.
Hearing this, Mrs. Yun couldn't help but feel disappointed and sad, but she also knew that her husband had responsibilities and couldn't slack off.
Yun still had questions to ask Wei Mingting, but she was a little hesitant about whether to ask this question.
After standing aside for a while, Mrs. Yun couldn't help but ask: "Husband, what did you and Ruo'er talk about today?"
"Ruo'er asked me some questions, nothing important." Wei Mingting did not answer directly.
Hearing this, Mrs. Yun felt herself becoming more and more depressed and uncomfortable.
"Does your husband not trust me?" Yun asked.
"Don't think too much." Wei Mingting said, "You have been busy all day today, and you are tired. Please rest early."
Yun was silent for a while, unwilling but still agreed, with a heavy and aggrieved mood. Help Wei Mingting pack his luggage.

On the way back to Prince Rui's Mansion, Wei Ruo leaned on the soft cushion and closed his eyes, thinking.
After these three days of calming down, Wei Ruo has almost sorted out his emotions, and it's time to think about the way to go next.
In fact, she had known for a long time that it would be difficult for her not to be involved in this turmoil for the heir apparent. The Wei family had Wei Qingwan who wanted to marry Prince Yu as a concubine, and Wei Mingyong and others who wanted to seduce Prince Yu.
Even if she really marries an ordinary person and breaks away from the Wei family, she will still be implicated if the Wei family goes too far.
In contrast, her current situation is more proactive. If King Yu's affairs affect the Wei family, her identity as Princess Rui can protect her; if the second brother plans to fight for the heirloom, then at least she can do something. , even if you lose in the end, you won’t be too aggrieved.
As for the fact that Wei Jin also deceived her, Wei Ruo was naturally a little angry, but she could put it aside for now and figure out what she was going to do next.
How to save your own life is the top priority.
She didn't want to spend all her energy arguing and getting angry with Wei Jinyi. When Chu Landu ascended the throne and the knife was placed on their necks, she realized that she had forgotten to do business.
Wei Ruo remembered that the settings related to Duke Xu and Queen Xu in the original work were for Chu Lan to overthrow Chu Heng.
The masterminds behind the frame-up of Xu Guogong were Concubine Qi and her brother.
Because Chu Lan exposed this incident, Concubine Qi fell out of favor, Qi Yansong was removed from office and imprisoned in a prison, and King Yu Chu Heng's status plummeted.
Now the second brother in this generation has found the letters hidden in Xu Guogong's palace and cleared Xu Guogong of treason, but he has not dug up the mastermind behind the scenes. At present, the status of Qi Guifei and Chu Heng has not been affected.
I don’t know what the second brother’s next goal is. Does he want to overthrow Chu Lan and Chu Heng and ascend to the throne?
If he really wanted to do this, should she help him?
Wei Ruo's mood is somewhat contradictory. She has no interest in conquering the world, and she is not good at maneuvering.
She has always felt that her brain is pretty good, and she can remember and learn many things after reading them once.
But this is only limited to the things she is good at. She is really not good at the things she is not good at.
Her only advantage in fighting for the reserve is probably that she has read the original work, and this may not be useful now, because due to the butterfly effect, the development of the plot is very different from the original.
