Chapter 75: Take this evil woman to hell together
It was such a nice birthday party, but something like this happened. All the guests present felt sorry for Deng Zheng's miserable situation.
"I don't know what bad luck the Duke of Zhenguo has this year? The Duke of Zhenguo's mansion is in chaos all day long!"
"Who says it's not true? Ever since Princess Youning came back, the Duke's Mansion has never been peaceful."
"It's hard to say. The county lady and the Deng family are in conflict."
“…”
The guests discussed the matter for a long time, and finally pointed the finger at Deng Youning.
Li Tianzhuo couldn't bear to hear others making up rumors about her, and just when he was about to speak out to stop them, Gu started scolding Deng Youning again.
"Deng Youning, you are such a heartless person!"
"You raised that snake. It's obvious that you used some kind of magic to make the snake obey your orders and drink blood."
"It's still unknown whether you are my Zhenguogongfu's flesh and blood or not!"
She crawled forward, hugged Deng Zheng's thighs, and said earnestly:
"My dear husband, I am sorry for having an affair with Zhan Lang, but Yi Er is truly your flesh and blood!"
"That snake might have been tamed by Deng Youning in advance; and that midwife Niu might have been bribed by her to harm me!"
Gu is smart now.
She has done a lot of things that go against her conscience, and as long as there is a way to let Yier stay in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and inherit the title, this one thing doesn't matter.
"What a good excuse!"
Li Tianzhuo glanced at her with disdain.
He bowed to Han Qiongyue and said, "Madam Han, Madam Gu was the first to commit a crime. Please allow me to take her to Jingzhao Prefecture. After twenty blows, I don't believe she won't tell the truth."
Hearing that he was going to be punished, Gu was scared.
She's used to a good life and can't stand those storms.
Even without torture, as long as she was in court and the gavel was banged, she would be so frightened that her whole body would tremble and she wouldn't be able to speak clearly.
Deng Zheng gradually recalled what Deng Yi looked like when he was just born.
Angry and annoyed.
Now no matter what Gu said, he was certain that Deng Yi was not his biological son.
"Eighteen years ago, I was away suppressing bandits for half a year. When I came back, you lied to me and said you had just given birth to a child a month ago."
"At the time, I was so overjoyed, immersed in the joy of being a father for the first time, that I didn't even notice that the baby looked at least two or three months old, and there was no way it could have just been born!"
"You even lied to me and said that this child was a child prodigy. I believed such a self-defeating lie for 18 years!"
Deng Zheng's voice was hoarse and he became more excited the more he spoke.
Tears couldn't help but fall from the cloudy and red eyes.
Nothing is left!
When people reach middle age, they are deserted by their friends and relatives, and their wives and children are separated from them.
The way he cried silently, it was as if all the bitterness in the world was churning in his stomach.
He clenched his hands tightly, suppressed the ups and downs in his heart, and spoke with a bit of bitterness and reluctance:
"Whore Gu, you deserve what you have done today."
"I will give you a letter of divorce right now. From today on, you are no longer my daughter-in-law of the Deng family."
Gu breathed a sigh of relief. Since her first secret meeting with Zhan Lang after their marriage, she had thought about the consequences of today.
The groom stood aside. He didn't say much the whole time, but he felt extremely remorseful in his heart.
It was all my fault for not identifying the letter well enough to fall into the trap of the evil woman Deng Youning and harm Wan'er.
If he hadn't heard Wan'er say that this evil woman had great martial arts skills and was immune to all poisons, he would have taken this evil woman to hell with him!
"No, it's impossible. I don't believe it! I don't believe it—"
The evidence was conclusive, but Deng Yi simply could not accept this outcome.
From the noble prince of a duke to the lowly son of a groom, no one could accept this gap in status.
He was already a little crazy, and his mental state was damaged by Deng Xuelian's matter. He seemed like a madman, shouting "Impossible" and turned and ran.
Everyone in the Deng family was busy with their own affairs and had no time to care about him.
"Crazy, crazy! Prince Deng is really crazy this time!"
The guests looked at Deng Yi's back as he ran away, and shook their heads as they recalled what Deng Yi and He Xiangzhe had done on the night of the emperor's birthday.
The Deng family has no other descendants and no side branches.
The title of Duke Zhenguo and the huge Duke's Mansion will really have no successor in the future.
Some time ago, there was a rumor in the capital that a hundred years after Deng Zheng, there would no longer be a Duke Zhenguo in Dongji.
It now appears that the rumors are true.
The guests who came to the birthday party were all Deng Zheng's colleagues or important figures in the capital. After seeing the Deng family commit such a crime with their own eyes, they also had some thoughts in their minds.
"Madam Han, Lord Duke, since something like this has happened in your mansion, it is inconvenient for us to stay for long. We will take our leave first."
The person who spoke was a senior official who had a good relationship with Deng Zheng.
He took the lead in speaking, and more people who had a good relationship with Deng Zheng bowed and said goodbye.
These people simply wanted to break off relations with Deng Zheng because they saw that the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was really about to fall into decline.
"Madam Han, we are quite busy with family affairs, so I will leave first."
The people who were leaving now were those invited by Han Qiongyue. They had nothing to do with Deng Zheng, so they didn't even bother to glance at him. They were all giving face to Han Qiongyue.
"What a thing! If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have given him such a big gift today!"
"Deng Yi used to be arrogant because of his status, but now he is the son of a groom, so he is arrogant!"
"Their Zhenguo Mansion is in such a state because they lack great virtue. You don't know that Deng Zheng originally had an older brother who died in an unclear manner!"
"What should we do with the Deng family's military power? After the emperor takes back the military power, who will get it?!"
Those guests who had left, regardless of anything, started to criticize them while still on the Deng family's territory.
He cursed and mentioned his deceased eldest son Deng Ren, and was still thinking about the military power of the Deng family?
When Deng Zheng heard this, he felt depressed and vomited blood.
"Why don't you help the Duke down to rest?"
Deng Youning just called a servant over.
This young man was about the same age as Deng Zheng. He was very strong and looked like a martial artist.
Ever since the Gu family incident started, he has been staying here to watch the show.
There were many maids and old women watching the show, so Deng Youning ignored them.
But now it seems that she feels that this servant looks very familiar, as if he often hangs around her and her grandmother.
Looking at his profile, his features look a bit like Deng Zheng?!
Deng Youning narrowed her eyes, and before she could see clearly, the person had already helped Deng Zheng away.
"Someone come and send this shameless couple to Jingzhao Prefecture!" Han Qiongyue ordered.
"No, mother, don't send your daughter-in-law to see the official. I don't want to die yet!" Gu begged bitterly.
She was charged with adultery and was sentenced to death by drowning.
Zhan Lang will also be sentenced to death by hanging.
"Everyone in the city is watching what happened today. Even if I want to protect you, I'm powerless!" Han Qiongyue explained truthfully.
She knew very well that Deng Youning chose to expose Gu's crimes today in order to make the matter irreversible.
She just wants Gu to die!
"no--"
"I can't die. At least I left Deng Youning as a child for the Deng family!"
A few guards who knew some martial arts came up and took Gu and the groom out directly through the back door.
When Gu was dragged out, he was still screaming.
She shouted all the way from the back door to the alley.
As the people walked away, Han Qiongyue, Deng Youning and the others gradually heard the voices become quieter.
The whole city knew about this, so they were no longer afraid of being embarrassed.
