The self-reversal of the cannon fodder fat wife
Chapter 100: Duke Dingguo and his wife
In the Duke Dingguo's Mansion far away in the capital, a pigeon would fly in every two days, and even crows would fly into their yard.
But in the past half month, the pigeons and crows have disappeared. Duke Dingguo and his wife have been spending every day waiting, and their moods are getting heavier and heavier.
Until early this morning, a secret guard dropped from the sky and took out several white, pink and yellow things from his arms.
"Master, this is the soap that the Crown Princess asked Butler Wan to produce. It will be sold in all the provincial capitals starting today."
"Crown Princess" was the respectful title given to Yinuo by the subordinates. It was a spontaneous act. Teng Ke did not ask for it and Teng Lie did not object. The eldest princess was not happy at first, but after receiving the letter from Nanny Wan, she acquiesced.
After Butler Wan went to Pengcheng, he would write letters to Duke Dingguo Teng Lie every other day.
At first he only reported on the placement of the Teng family army, but later he reported that the young lady had passed the medical examination and was a very good doctor, and the Crown Prince's wife was going to open a restaurant and was an excellent cook.
The letter was short, but every word revealed praise and recognition for Yinuo.
In the last letter he wrote to Teng Lie half a month ago, he said that the Crown Princess asked him to produce something called soap.
In his letter, Butler Wan described this thing as miraculous, saying it could solve people's hygiene problems and greatly reduce the spread of viruses. Moreover, this soap had considerable profits, and if mass-produced, it could be sold all over the country.
The important thing is that no one can follow suit, so the Hua family business can become the only one in the market. In this way, the retired soldiers of the Teng family army will have jobs.
When the current emperor ascended the throne, a coup occurred in which nine princes fought for the throne, forcing the emperor to back down. However, the emperor had the support of Teng Lie, who led the Teng family army to quell the coup, conquered the princes in various places, stabilized the court, and supported the emperor.
After the court stabilized, Teng Lie did not cling to power. He handed over the military command in front of the court officials.
Because before the emperor ascended the throne, he already knew that Teng Lie had found the military token, and he was willing to escort him. During the palace coup, Teng Lie tried his best to protect him. In addition, Teng Lie was his brother-in-law, so he trusted Teng Lie very much.
The emperor did not take back the military command and return it to Teng Lie, but at Teng Lie's strong suggestion, he still incorporated the Teng family army into the court and made it the most powerful black-armored knights in the court.
Soldiers are not made of iron. There are always some who are injured, sick, old, or disabled. However, the imperial court has no money, so these retired Teng family soldiers can only be settled by the Teng family.
However, the Teng family was weak, and Teng Lie was the only child without any brothers or sisters. So when it came to his generation, he had to manage the Hua family business himself.
Let me ask you, how can a military commander know how to do business? Even if he is very smart, he doesn't know how to do business! The Hua family business declined a lot in his hands.
Later he married the eldest princess.
Because of his life-saving grace, the eldest princess had fallen in love with him since she was a child. When she grew up and learned that the late emperor (the eldest princess and the current emperor's father) was going to choose a princess to marry Teng Lie, she tried every means to make herself the best candidate in the late emperor's mind.
Finally, she got what she wanted and had a heart-to-heart talk with Teng Lie on the wedding night.
Of course, Teng Lie did not believe her immediately. After some tests and observations, he finally believed her.
So he told the secret of Hua's business to the eldest princess and made her the helmsman of Hua's business.
This is also the biggest secret between the couple, and this secret also makes them more united and harmonious.
Over the past twenty years, thanks to her hard work, the Hua family business has finally achieved some success. However, it is still too difficult to support hundreds of thousands of veterans and their families.
The couple was at their wits' end and had to grit their teeth and struggle to get by.
When Teng Ke was eighteen years old, he took part in the military examination and won the first place.
The emperor both loved and feared him. After all, none of his sons was as good as Teng Ke. The emperor felt that he had no successor, and at the same time he was afraid that his nephew would usurp the throne.
So they tried to find a way to suppress the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.
You know, the reason why Teng Ke didn't get married until he was 20 years old was not because no one in the capital was interested in him, but because the emperor didn't agree.
Teng Ke's identity meant that his marriage could only be arranged by the emperor. If her eldest brother, the emperor, did not speak up, who would dare to agree to the marriage? The eldest princess also tried to find out the emperor's opinion many times, but he never agreed.
Seeing that her son was getting older, the Grand Princess agreed to send him down to Pengcheng.
The Emperor ordered him to garrison troops in Pengcheng, Teng Lie ordered him to secretly solve the livelihood problem of retired veterans of the Teng family army, and the eldest princess ordered him to secretly get acquainted with ladies from wealthy families and secretly get married and have children.
For six years, Teng Ke completed the tasks assigned by the three people.
The emperor was very satisfied and less wary of him.
Duke Dingguo was also very satisfied. The livelihood of the veterans of the Teng family army would no longer be a problem in the future.
The eldest princess felt the most uncomfortable. How could she bear that her son was forced to marry a fat and ugly man and have a child?
She cried so hard that her eyes were swollen for several days and she fell ill in bed.
The emperor and people outside just thought that she was sad because Teng Ke was missing and his life or death was unknown.
It was true that Teng Ke was in danger, and it was also true that he was forced to marry and have children, but no one knew about it. The Duke Dingguo's Mansion did not make it public, and even the Emperor could not find out.
During the months he disappeared, everyone thought he was dead. Only Duke Dingguo and his wife knew that their son had resolved this major life event.
Later, Teng Ke left Xiao County and let the emperor's people discover his whereabouts and let them find him. Teng Ke even pretended to have amnesia.
Next, during his three years in Pengcheng, he behaved himself and the emperor relaxed his surveillance on him. After three years, he withdrew the secret guards who were observing him.
During these three years, he just secretly let his secret guards send money to his mother-in-law and asked the secret guards to find out their news. He did not dare to visit his children and was always hardened in not meeting them.
It happened that Teng Runhong was two years old at that time. When Teng Ke learned that the Emperor's Dragon Guards had withdrawn, he immediately took a home visit leave to see his son. Unexpectedly, he was plotted against again.
At that time, he was worried that the emperor would be bad for the child, so he hurried back to the military camp before the end of his home visit leave. Later, he found out that the original owner was pregnant again.
Teng Ke secretly wrote a letter to discuss with Duke Dingguo Teng Lie and decided to keep the child, as the Duke Dingguo's Mansion needed to expand!
From that time on, Teng Ke became more cautious. He did not openly inquire about the child's news. He devoted himself to training to distract the emperor from the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.
Duke Dingguo was responsible for having someone secretly take care of the two children. Otherwise, with the skills of the original owner's brother, how could he return home with a full load every day?
The eldest princess would definitely favor her husband's son, because he is also her own grandson.
But this did not stop her from hating Yinuo. Her son was a handsome man with a bright future. He was more than qualified to marry a princess. But when he was in danger, he was entangled by a village girl.
It’s not that she looks down on country girls. After all, if you count a few generations ago, who doesn’t come from the countryside?
But that woman is really going too far!
Not only did she force Teng Ke to marry her in exchange for a favor, but I also heard that she was lazy, fat and ugly.
When she heard about this, she was so angry that she fell ill. Later, she was relieved when she heard that the woman was pregnant. At the same time, she was glad that the woman could give birth, because at least it solved the problem of her son carrying on the family line!
