Du Wanwan, a military doctor, overworked herself to death. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself branded a 'calamity star'—hated by everyone, facing a forced exodus, and expel...
Chapter 268 Du Jiang has two princesses
This was not something Ye Tingxiao came up with on his own. He had asked Du Wanwan the same question before, and this was how she answered him.
"Oh! So that's how it is." Ye Zhenghai suddenly realized, "My daughter-in-law is really far-sighted. If the cost is too high, we really can't afford it. But, will the manufacturing method of the fire gun be leaked? If the Northern Kingdom gets it, will it be disadvantageous to our Great Wei?"
"No." It was Ye Tingxiao who replied, "Wanwan has already thought of this and has reminded us that the King of Dongchen is not allowed to use fire guns to harass other countries under any pretext, and is not allowed to arbitrarily transfer the manufacturing technology.
If it is to be sold, it can only be sold to Wei. Other countries simply cannot get it."
Ye Zhenghai's eyes lit up, and he was surprised at Du Wanwan's forward thinking. His daughter-in-law was really amazing. She was thinking ahead and had already said everything she should have thought of.
"This is the best. As long as it doesn't pose a threat to us, it's harmless." Ye Zhenghai praised her in person: "Daughter-in-law! You did the right thing."
Du Wanwan smiled calmly, "Not really. I just don't want to drag my family and children to avoid war. My uncle has agreed that if Wei wants to obtain the manufacturing technology of fire guns, our Ye family must come forward to beg for it. If others go, he will never agree."
"Oh!" Ye Zhenghai was shocked, with a huge surprise in his eyes, "If what my daughter-in-law said is true, then it will be a good opportunity for our Ye family."
Ye Tingxiao shook his head slightly: "Not necessarily! Father! Let's not talk about this matter for now. I hope that there will never be such a day in the Wei Dynasty."
After being poured a bucket of cold water by his son, Ye Zhenghai calmed down.
Indeed, they were just garrison generals stationed in a peaceful area. If the Wei Dynasty were to be in a situation where they had to beg the King of Dongchen to hand over the technology of manufacturing firearms, the people would surely be living in misery and the country would be in ruins.
"If that day really comes, the people of Wei will be in dire straits."
As soon as Ye Zhenghai finished speaking, the grandson in his arms said "Oh" and looked like he wanted to chat with him. He smiled and waved his hands.
"Chenchen! What do you want to say to Grandpa? Oh! Oh! Do you want to express your opinion too?"
Chenchen: "Oh! Ah! Oh! Ah! Oh! Oh! Oh!"
The little person laughed and danced, uttering regular monosyllables, which made Ye Zhenghai laugh out loud.
He teased the baby even more enthusiastically.
Chen Xiangxiu heard the laughter and came over. Seeing the grandparents and grandchildren "chatting", she joined in.
The cute little Chenchen was leading two others, talking at cross purposes. The three of them were chatting intently and were very happy.
Ye Tingxiao and Du Wanwan watched from the side and found it very interesting. Their son seemed to be a chatterbox. As long as someone talked to him, he would always get extremely excited.
Dongchen's guard of honor arrived at Liangjun City before the Qingming Festival after the New Year. They stayed in the post station and picked a fine day with fine weather and brought their people to the People's Clinic.
He took out the imperial edict and read it to the Du family. No one from the Du family knelt down, and the people nearby stood up. Instead, the people who came to welcome Princess Xianzun and Princess Huguo knelt on the ground.
The people were all stunned, and they couldn't understand why the Du family had two princesses at once. Who was the Xianzun Princess? Who was the Huguo Princess?
The arrival of the Dongchen guard of honor completely stirred up a whirlwind of discussion about the "princess" in Liangjun City. People rushed to tell others that the Du family was actually the royal family of Dongchen.
Doctor Du’s mother is actually the eldest princess of Dongchen Kingdom, and Doctor Du is the Princess Protector of the Country.
Oh my God! They were about to faint. They had been treated by the princess for so many years? What kind of blessing was that?
At the entrance of the alley not far away, Huo Qingxiang held on to the wheelchair tightly with both hands, bit her lower lip tightly, and stared in the direction of the People's Hospital without blinking, with hatred in her eyes.
Jin Wenhao, the Jade-faced Shura in the wheelchair, had a blank expression on his face, unable to tell whether he was happy or angry. In fact, he was also in a state of panic, as Du Wanwan turned out to be the princess of Dongchen.
No wonder she knew her identity right away when she was in the bandit village. No wonder she had such a powerful hidden weapon, it turned out that she was from the Dongchen family.
I heard that Dongchen has developed a weapon called a fire gun, which is more powerful than the repeating crossbow of Liangjun City. If you want to succeed, you must have a good relationship with the royal family of Dongchen.
Yao Meixian and Du Wanwan knew that Yao Xianqing would send someone to pick them up to Dongchen. When the guard of honor appeared at their doorstep, they did not panic at all, but received them in an orderly manner.
They handed over what needed to be handed over, and asked them to prepare what needed to be prepared. They set the time to leave for Dongchen in five days.
Chen Xiangxiu really didn't want to part with her little grandson who could sit and crawl and talk to her all day long, but she couldn't stop her daughter-in-law from returning to Dongchen to be conferred a title.
The child was too young to be separated from his mother. When she learned that her grandson would leave Liang County and go to the capital of Dongchen State in five days, she felt so upset that she couldn't eat or sleep.
The same goes for Ye Zhenghai. His greatest pleasure now is to tease his grandson, play with him and coax him to sleep in his spare time every day.
When he heard that the three of them were going on a long journey, he was actually reluctant to let them go, but his daughter-in-law was the princess of Dongchen Kingdom, so he had to go back.
My son is the prince consort and he has to accompany me, so can my grandson stay and not leave?
Later I thought about it and decided that it might not be possible. The child was too young and it would be impossible for him to be away from his mother for too long.
"Xiu'er! Go with your daughter-in-law!" Ye Zhenghai was really worried about his grandson. "With you here, your daughter-in-law will feel more at ease when she goes out to do things."
"I want to, too! I'm just afraid my daughter-in-law will think I'm in the way." Chen Xiangxiu felt a little guilty, "How can a daughter-in-law bring her mother-in-law with her when she returns to her parents' home? This is against the rules."
"Let's not talk about that. You went there to take care of Chenchen." Ye Zhenghai racked his brains to analyze the situation, "The child has never left you or your daughter-in-law for a day.
You two are the closest people to him in his heart. If his daughter-in-law is stuck, who will he entrust the child to? Entrust the child to someone he is not familiar with? What if something happens? Can you rest assured?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiangxiu immediately recalled in his mind a scene in which a vicious palace maid murdered the offspring of Princess Huguo. He didn't scare anyone else, but he frightened himself so much that his face turned pale.
She couldn't even bear to think about the scene of her darling grandson being murdered or tortured. When she thought about it, she wanted to curl up into a ball.
She was trembling all over and felt extremely heartbroken. The master was right, she couldn't leave her beloved grandson, she had to go with him.
Even if the daughter-in-law goes out for something, she is still at home and will protect her lovely grandson.
"Don't say anything. I'll go. I'll go with them."
Chen Xiangxiu is an impatient person. As soon as he heard that he wanted to go to Dongchen with Du Wanwan, he immediately asked the nanny to pack up.
Don't want to waste even a minute.
