The self-reversal of the cannon fodder fat wife
Chapter 149 Testing each other
During the meal, the four of them chatted occasionally, but there was no in-depth communication. Guan Tong had a sad face and the food tasted bland.
Teng Lie, however, looked as if it had nothing to do with him and was eating happily.
The emperor and the empress are a plastic couple. They eat their own food and don't even look at each other.
Time passed in agony, and the emperor had almost finished eating and put down his chopsticks.
"Empress, does the imperial physician at the Crown Prince's Mansion provide daily consultations?"
The Queen replied respectfully, "Yes, the Crown Princess is pregnant and the Imperial Physician said the fetus is in the right position."
The lack of an heir to the Eastern Palace has always been a source of worry for the Queen. The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess have been married for five years, but there has been no news of pregnancy. At first, it was thought that it was due to the Crown Princess's physical condition, but later, the concubines were taken into the palace, but they also had no children.
At the end of last year, the Crown Princess received advice from an expert and went to the Big Buddha Temple every month to sincerely eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures for half a month. After two months, the Crown Princess became pregnant. Now it is eight months pregnant, and the imperial physician said it is a boy.
The Queen and the Emperor finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, I still need to go to the Crown Prince's Palace. I will take my leave first."
The Queen knew that the Emperor had something to say to Duke Dingguo and his wife, so she tactfully took her leave.
Sure enough, after the queen left, the emperor said to Guan Lin, "Sister, come to Longlin Palace and have a seat!"
Guan Tong glanced at Teng Lie without leaving a trace, and saluted respectfully: "Yes."
As the emperor stood up, the eunuchs around him began to sing loudly: "The emperor is here!"
Hearing this, the palace maids and eunuchs on the roadside knelt down and kowtowed, and people who saw it from afar would also kneel down or avoid it.
When they arrived at Longlin Palace, the maid immediately served them hot tea and cakes. An Hai signaled for them to leave while he stayed outside.
"Royal sister, your daughter-in-law is from the Yi family? Her maiden name is Yinuo?"
When Guan Tong heard the emperor asking about his daughter-in-law, alarm bells rang in her heart, but she pretended to be angry and did not dare to show it.
"Your Majesty, it is true!"
Teng Lie put away his nonchalant look and asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, I wonder if my daughter-in-law......"
"Shut up, what daughter-in-law? I don't recognize this village girl as my daughter-in-law!!"
Teng Lie immediately fell silent, but he was laughing in his heart. Wow, this is a disguised way of telling the emperor to shut up. How dare you say that.
Sure enough, the emperor's eyes twitched violently and he pretended not to know and didn't understand.
He chuckled: "Su Lin came back this time and told me a piece of news."
He said that your daughter-in-law...Yi, is not ugly or fat, on the contrary, she is quite beautiful! "
Guan Tong and Teng Lie were both stunned and looked at each other.
It turned out that Su Lin had reported everything, but the emperor did not tell the queen.
Is this a secret hidden from the Queen? Why?
After they realized what was happening, they said in unison, "How is this possible?!"
Then both of them frowned, and Teng Lie spoke first: "We have never seen it with our own eyes, we only got the reply from the secret guards."
"A portrait of this person is also attached. It is indeed...really ugly!"
The emperor did not think about whether they really did not know, and directly told Teng Lie: "Su Lin asked General Tang, that Yi's reputation is indeed not good. He also saw her once before, and she was indeed quite fat and ugly."
"I think he has reformed since arriving at the garrison village."
Guan Tong and Teng Lie looked at each other again, both of them looked confused.
The emperor thought they were shocked, but the two were thinking about how to respond to the emperor.
The Queen did not tell Guan Lin about this, but the Emperor told them in private. It seems that the Emperor did not tell the Queen about this, and the Emperor is still not sure whether it is true or not!
The two of them quickly analyzed the situation in their minds before Teng Lie said, "It's hard to change a bad habit!"
Guan Tong rarely agreed with Teng Lie's point of view: "Yes, my royal brother, there must be something wrong when things are abnormal!"
The emperor also responded in an unusual way: "It is indeed strange."
“But Sulin said she knows medicine!”
Here comes the point, this is what the emperor wants to say.
He suspected that Yinuo knew medical skills from the beginning, so she was able to save the dying Teng Ke. The emperor even speculated that Teng Ke was not forced to marry her, but did so voluntarily because of her medical skills.
"The first place in this year's medical written examination is Yinuo!"
"I also had someone check the girl from Taolin Village, Xiao County. Her husband's name is Teng Ke!"
"What!!"
This time, Guan Tong and Teng Lie were really surprised. They turned their heads at the same time and looked at the emperor, staring at him in disbelief.
The two seemed to realize that they had committed a taboo and quickly lowered their heads, but in the end they couldn't help but look at each other.
Judging from their reactions, it doesn’t look like they knew about it in advance.
"Is this Yi family really from Taolin Village?"
When the medical examination results were announced, the Imperial Medical Bureau reported to him. At that time, he just thought that the surname Yi was very special and did not think much about it. But after listening to Su Lin's report yesterday, he always felt that there were some places he had overlooked, so he sent the Dragon Guards to Taolin Village to investigate.
But the journey is long, and it will take at least a month to go back and forth, so he plans to test whether his sister knows about it today.
Guan Tong frowned and said, "Your Majesty, we have never heard Brother Ke mention it!"
"The people we sent to monitor her before only said that she locked herself in her room every day, was lazy and even beat and scolded her children."
Having said this, she pounded her chest in pain.
"Evil woman, my sweet grandson is still unable to speak, it's all because of her."
After saying that, Guan Tong took the handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of her eyes to hide her cunning look.
They do have some affection for each other, but when it comes to crucial matters, they will test each other and distrust each other. She has always survived by the emperor's guilt. If the emperor's guilt towards her disappears, she is really afraid that her entire family will be executed, after all, she has deceived the emperor many times.
Seeing the genuine sadness on her face, the emperor frowned, then immediately returned to his natural state. No one could tell what he was thinking.
"Duke Dingguo, I wonder what you have to say!"
Duke Dingguo originally just wanted to lie down against his wife, but he didn't expect that she would also @ him, and he instantly became serious.
"Your Majesty, the ice is three feet thick and it didn't freeze overnight. The Yi family knows medical skills, but that can't be learned in a day or two!"
The emperor nodded. Duke Dingguo seemed to have no regrets since he could analyze the situation with him in this way.
I'm afraid they don't know that their daughter-in-law's medical skills are so amazing.
Does Teng Ke know all this?
There is no way to answer this question now, so we can only put it aside for now.
"Lord Teng, what you said makes sense!"
After saying this, he did not continue speaking, because he was the king and he did not need to explain so much to his subjects. In the end, he allowed the two men to leave the palace.
The two men bowed respectfully to the emperor and went straight back home.
