Chapter 42 Improper Son of Man(1/2)
The Duke of Wei.
Deng Zhen listened to his wife beside him talking about Li Shanchang, shook his head slightly and took out a letter of divorce.
When she saw those two words, Ms. Li's face was filled with shock and disbelief.
"Ms. sir, you..."
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she hadn't said anything yet to make the person in front of her change his mind.
The latter helped him up and persuaded him with fatigue and helplessness in his tone.
"Li Shanchang should have told you to accompany me in the play."
Li stood there dumbly. Only the Li family knew what Deng Zhen said just now.
How could...
Before she could understand the complicated look in her eyes, Deng Zhen smashed the vase on the table.
A harsh sound interrupted Li's thoughts, and her hand was pulled up.
"You and I both have to live."
As the words fell, Li's hand forcefully left scars on his face.
Then he turned around and smashed everything he could here.
"Deng Zhen! I didn't realize that you are a heartless and unjust person. My grandfather just got into trouble and he couldn't wait to get rid of it. There's no way!"
She almost yelled out these words, and the whole family stood outside.
They were so trembling that they didn't dare to raise their heads.
Looking at the restless servants, Deng Zhen closed his eyes and sighed.
"Here is the divorce letter. From today on, you, Mr. Li, have nothing to do with me anymore."
He snorted coldly and walked away, pretending to look at the person next to him in anger.
The horrific wounds on his face were not concealed and exposed to everyone.
Listening to the whispers around them, Deng Zhen and Li were relieved.
I know that tomorrow this news will spread all over Yingtian, and it will become a chat for many people after dinner.
…
Inside Fengtian Hall.
Thinking of what happened recently, the superior's expression was uncertain.
Du Andao was also on pins and needles, not daring to relax at all for fear of something going wrong.
"This Deng Zhen doesn't look like that kind of person."
Rumors spread far faster than expected. The story of Deng Town's chaos and abandonment has already been aroused, and Jinyiwei's many eyes and ears naturally know it.
but……
Deng Zhen is very similar to his father. He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, which is not like the rumors.
But when he heard the reply from Jin Yiwei, who was lurking among the servants, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
"Call Deng Zhen and Li Qi over."
Zhu Yuanzhang rubbed his temples and felt a headache. It was easy to make enemies but not easy to dissolve them.
Now that there is such a big fuss, both families have been disgraced.
When they entered the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang stood up from the dragon chair angrily.
The two people in front of them had bruises and swollen faces, and they didn't know how much hatred they had.
He cried out in his heart that he had committed sin.
Then he turned to look at Deng Zhen and scolded him sternly.
"Deng Zhen! You throw away the chaff without any reason. Is this a sin?"
He was deeply in love with Empress Ma and his wife, and was determined not to have another empress.
It is said to be a good story.
But the guy in front of me, divorced his wife, actually made such a big fuss.
The whole of Yingtian was watching the joke. Deng Yu was really not a son of a man, and Deng Yu's face would be completely humiliated.
After hearing this, Deng Zhen immediately fell to his knees and explained the reasons why he divorced his wife.
"Your Majesty has learned clearly that there are three types of unfilial piety, the greatest of which is not having an heir. Li has been in my Deng family for who knows how many years but has nothing to do with it, so I just wrote a letter of divorce."
This is a normal reason.
Looking at the person in front of him, his peers already had Zi Chenghuan as his sire, and he...
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know how to answer for a moment, and Li Qi, who was beside him, rushed to question him.
"You old boy, I think it's because my father Li Shan was ill and wanted to get out of here. Otherwise, why didn't he just give up yesterday after he had no heirs for many years?"
After saying this, Deng Zhen's eyes dodge, his face turns red and he hesitates, unable to speak.
A guilty look fell in the eyes of the man above.
Seeing that Li Qi was about to continue spraying, Zhu Yuanzhang turned over his hand and threw the book on Deng Zhen and said coldly.
"Deng Zhen, what are you going to do?"
But they saw Deng Zhen kneeling on the ground speechless, and Li Qi holding his head high like a victorious rooster.
One is the queen of meritorious service, and the other is the current prince-in-law.
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was confused, Deng Zhen finally responded after a long time.
"I feel that I have acted unethically. I am willing to resign and select a capable person to take up an important position in the army. I will spend half a year behind closed doors to eliminate Li's resentment. Then I will send back the dowry, prepare another betrothal gift, and return to the Li family with Li."
"From then on, she walked her Yangguan Road, and I walked my single-plank bridge. They had nothing to do with each other."
Li Qi's ugly face improved a little after hearing this, and he nodded to express his acceptance.
Resign?
After hearing the previous half, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed with light.
Is it sincere or intentional?
The Deng family's prestige in the military was very high, and he was indeed tempted to get rid of them, but he never thought that it would take any effort.
It's too simple, but it's weird.
but……
Zhu Yuanzhang buried the suspicion in his heart deeply. The most important thing at the moment was the matter between the two families.
Judging from their attitude, it seems that they are at loggerheads.
He waved his hands to the two of them, motioning them to retreat and said.
"Go back. From now on, bridge back to bridge, road back to the road."
…
Deng Quan finished reading the last word and gritted his teeth angrily.
His kind sister-in-law was sent back to Li's house just like that, which made him speechless.
Now that the army has arrived at Juyong Pass, Zhu Shangbing frowned slightly as he looked at the barracks in front of him.
Most of the people living here are veterans and have many experiences of escaping from death.
He hopes these people can help.
Unexpectedly...
"What's wrong with such a big kid leading us to fight, Your Majesty?"
"Look behind you, they are all so big, it's ridiculous!"
"The military camp is martial, what can these people do?"
…
All of them were as strong as oxen, with expressions of disdain on their faces, and they mocked Zhu Shangbing directly to his face without caring about his identity.
Someone walked directly in front of Deng Quan, looked at his limbs and smiled.
"Haha, people like this are worthy of fighting alongside me. Those with thin arms and legs should go back and recite poems as soon as possible, otherwise you, Grandpa Niu, won't be able to comfort others if they cry."
Unexpectedly, the next second, he was knocked down with a punch.
The one who did it was Deng Quan, who they regarded as having thin arms and legs, and after being knocked down, he ran back with a smile and asked Zhu Shangbing for credit.
"My lord, look! I learned what you taught me and even defeated someone."
But at this moment, Zhu Shangbing did not pay attention to him, but pulled the man on the ground up.
To be continued...
