When Tang Zhiling left the house, someone was watching.
Duke Guo of Tang was sitting in his study, waiting for the secret guard to report.
"Third brother, are you looking for that woman again?"
"Yes, Lord Guo."
"Did you bring that woman's portrait?"
The secret guard handed Shen Fei's portrait to Tang Guogong.
After Tang Guogong opened the portrait, he frowned. This woman seemed to be too plain.
What is it about this place that attracts Lao San?
"You are not mistaken about this portrait?"
The secret guard nodded heavily, "My lord, that woman really looks like this, and my subordinates never deceived her."
Duke Tang frowned, puzzled.
"What did that woman do recently? Is there anything strange about her?"
"Miss Shen usually takes care of the children at home. Today the Third Young Master went to the village with her."
"Why are you going to the village? Is there anything suspicious?"
"My subordinates didn't notice that Miss Shen planted winter wheat at her home. The two of them went to see the wheat seedlings, and then went to the pig pen to see the piglets..."
Tang Guogong interrupted: "Okay, I understand, you can go down."
"Yes, I am resigning."
The secret guard ducked and disappeared.
Tang Guogong felt that the matter was not that simple, but he could not think of anything suspicious.
Tang Guogong glanced at Shen Fei's portrait again and found it very eye-catching, so he just put it on the desk and ignored it.
If Shen Fei were here and saw someone painting her so ugly, she would definitely jump in anger.
This woman was painted like a flower, with thick eyebrows, eyes the size of mung beans, and nostrils bigger than her eyes. Who dared to say that such a scrawled portrait was her, she would definitely pick up a kitchen knife and chop down his whole family immediately.
It's really not very harmful, but very insulting.
At this time, in Lu's courtyard.
Madam Lu, the Duke's wife, was sitting at the top, looking sternly at the two women below, "Is there still no news about your stomach?"
Shi Hanlei, the wife of the Crown Prince, and Jia Ningqin, the wife of the Second Young Master Tang, looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.
"Return to mother, no." Mrs. Shizi replied.
When asked by her mother-in-law if she was pregnant, the two sisters-in-law stopped arguing and had surprisingly consistent attitudes.
The second young lady, Mrs. Jia, doesn't talk too much at this time, and only listens to her sister-in-law's orders.
The Duke's wife looked at her two daughters-in-law with a very unkind look, "My eldest daughter-in-law, it has been five years since you came here, how come there is no news at all."
The Crown Prince's wife is the eldest lady of the Earl's Palace, and she has a sense of arrogance about her.
So she replied: "Mom, I am also looking forward to giving my husband a son and a half daughters, but my body is not up to par, and there has been no movement for so many years. In order to expand the branches and leaves of our house, I gave The prince brought up a concubine, hoping for good news."
Mrs. Crown Prince spoke slowly, but contained a lot of information.
It's just a matter of saying clearly that the prince is in trouble.
The Duke’s wife: “…”
The Duke's wife hit a soft nail with her daughter-in-law.
She knew that what the eldest daughter-in-law meant was that it wasn't that she couldn't have a baby, but that the women in the eldest family's entire backyard couldn't have a baby. Whose problem was this?
The Duke's wife originally wanted to teach her two daughters-in-law a lesson, but now she has no excuse.
So he waved his hand and said, "Okay, please step back. You must take the tonic on time."
Mrs. Shizi has been taking tonics for five years. She feels nauseated after taking the bitter decoction every day.
She tightened the handkerchief in her hand and did not refute in person, "Yes, mother."
The second young lady, Mrs. Jia, also obeyed, "Yes, mother, I have written it down."
The two of them walked out of Lu's yard one after the other.
Mrs. Shizi walked in front, and she was also very dissatisfied.
Huh, she's just a little concubine, just giving me mother-in-law money.
You are in good luck. If your uncle had not died long ago, this title would not have fallen into the hands of your father-in-law.
How can you still act like a duke and his wife here today?
Mrs. Shizi did not wait for Mrs. Jia, and left directly with her maid and nanny.
The second young lady also knows this sister-in-law well. She has been married for three years, and her relationship with her sister-in-law means that they can stand on the same front when they fight against her mother-in-law.
Privately, the two of them also had different feelings.
They all want to give birth to the eldest grandson of the Duke of Guo as soon as possible. ,
The Second Young Madam returned to her house and asked, "Mama Cai, go find me another doctor. Ask specifically for doctors who can treat infertility and invite them to the house."
Some time ago, Cai's mother heard a piece of news, "Miss, I have news for this old slave."
"Oh? What's the news?" the second young lady asked.
"I heard that the wife of Imperial Physician Song, who is nearly forty years old, is pregnant again."
The second young lady became interested, "Mother Cai, send someone to find out what's going on? Let's see if Dr. Song's medical skills are so good."
"Yes, miss, I'll go right away."
The second young lady touched her belly. She didn't understand why her husband and she were in good health, but there was no child.
Thinking of her tall and handsome husband, the second young lady's cheeks turned red.
Thinking that in order to have a child, she had to take a concubine for her husband, the second young lady's eyes flashed with sternness.
Humph, let those people enjoy themselves for a few days first, and when she has the child, they will be dealt with.
Two days later, Wu Yang was riding a fast horse.
He did not return directly to the Duke's Mansion, but to Yongdafang.
Since Tang Zhiling came back from the village, he has not returned to the Duke's mansion, but has been living in this small courtyard.
Wu Dan reported at this time: "Master, Wu Yang is back."
Tang Zhiling was leaning lazily on the chair, but now he immediately became energetic.
"Quick, bring him in."
"yes!"
Soon, a tired Wu Yang walked in.
"Wu Yang, meet the young master."
Tang Zhiling waved his hand, "Wu Dan, bring a chair to Wu Yang and let him sit down and talk."
Wu Dan also felt sorry for his elder brother, so he moved a stool for Wu Yang to sit on.
"Wu Yang, tell me, what happened? What did you find out? And about Shen Fei, how much did you find out?"
Tang Zhiling wanted to know what happened to him in Beidi.
What is the lost memory, and what does it have to do with Shen Fei.
Wu Yang took a breath and said, "Miss Shen's original name is Sun Mengxia. She followed her family to the Northland ten years ago. They were prisoners in the Northland and were naturally not treated well.
However, Miss Shen's parents were not kind to her. Their neighbors said that Miss Shen had to work a lot every day in the Sun family, and the Sun family often didn't give her food. The subordinates found it strange that although Sun Heng and his wife were hers, Biological parents, but they were not kind to her. "
Tang Zhiling nodded, "Is there anything else? How come she has a child? I heard she is engaged?"
"Yes, Miss Shen was engaged to be Lin Yuhuan, the son of the Lin family. Before he was dismissed from office, the old man of the Lin family used to be a third-rank official, and his official position was General Affairs Envoy and General Affairs Envoy."
Tang Zhiling tapped the table gently, "I didn't expect that the Lin family is still a scholarly family!"
