Chapter 244: Harem Surrogacy Concubine 3

There are rumors outside that the Duke and his wife are deeply in love and have only brought home this one child in all these years.

The Duke's wife was dignified and generous. She took in several personal maids for the Duke so that he could serve her better.

Ha~ Bullshit love between husband and wife, Wen Nuan's eyes are full of disdain.

There is a high probability that there is love, but as for how deep it is, it's just a little trick to fool the devil.

If he is really that deep, he should just clear out the backyard and find a domineering woman to love alone. He can still sleep with women and still claim to be deeply in love with them. Ugh.

And that vicious old woman obviously knew the man's true nature, but what if the woman outside was difficult to control? In that case, she might as well take the maidservant around her as her husband. In this way, the man would be at ease and she would also gain the reputation of being virtuous.

It’s really a good strategy that kills two birds with one stone.

However, she had calculated that men tend to get bored easily, but she had overlooked the bad nature of some people.

It is ridiculous that a duke of a country can only sleep with maids for many years. How could he be willing to accept this?

If this goes on for a long time, all the vows made will be wasted.

A man, a powerful man at that, would stop his upward climb for a mere woman? Wen Nuan didn't believe it.

And the original owner's wife is the most important step on his ladder, with money paving the way.

It is undeniable that the original owner's wife's appearance was also a factor in his attraction to her, but the most important thing was that the original owner's wife was the richest man in Daqian.

Back then, the Duke was not yet a Duke, not even a Crown Prince, but just a bastard's son.

But the little concubine's son had lofty ambitions and joined the army, making many outstanding achievements. This really took away the cake of the legitimate son of the mansion.

The position of the crown prince is not yet decided, you and I are both dark horses.

At that moment, the Duke who was away on a military expedition noticed that there was something wrong with the food and fodder that was being transported. Not only was most of it missing, but it was all moldy chaff. It was obvious that they wanted to starve him to death.

You don’t have to guess who wants him dead so much. It’s his stepmother. After all, his stepmother’s family is the Minister of War.

But he was still not fully grown at that time, so he simply kept doing nothing.

It has to be said that the Duke was quite capable when he was young. Not only did he win the battle, he was also lucky enough to meet the original owner's wife.

How could the cunning Duke not check the people around him, especially such a stunning one.

At that time, he was still wondering if it was sent by his stepmother, but after checking, he was overjoyed.

He is the mingzhu of the richest man in Daqian. With such a family background, even God is helping him.

His stepmother wasn't stupid enough to give him a mountain of gold.

Just like this, one was scheming and the other was full of friendship, and the original owner's mother was completely controlled.

As long as they went to war, the original owner's mother was willing to pay for it and support the entire mansion without any regrets.

You have to know that the Duke, who was only a concubine's son at the time, married a wife who was also a concubine's daughter of the Marquis's mansion.

In addition, he was suppressed by his stepmother, so his life was not difficult, but definitely not rich.

It was also because of this that the Duke still brought the original owner's wife into the mansion even though he knew that his wife did not agree.

She's just a woman, no one can hinder his path to success.

The subsequent result was indeed just as it was. With the original owner's wife, the Duke had no worries at all.

It’s okay if his stepmother tampered with the food again, he has been prepared.

Making friends with other generals and officials in the court was a piece of cake for him, as he had plenty of money.

In just a few years, the Duke, who had made outstanding military achievements and was honored with glory, overwhelmed the eldest son of the mansion.

The old Duke who raised the Gu finally gave in and went to the palace in person to invite the Crown Prince to serve him. He passed away a few years later.

After succeeding to the title of Duke, he continued to remain silent due to his reputation.

He couldn't just start with his stepmother as soon as he came to power. Regardless of whether he came forward to expose it or not, everyone would point the finger at him.

It was not until two years later that he used the excuse of inspecting the military camp and left Kyoto, secretly contacted officials in the court, and exposed the Minister of War for embezzling food and fodder in public. This matter was instigated by the old lady of the Duke's Mansion.

A single stone caused a thousand ripples. The relevant personnel were thrown into prison and the Duke was recalled to Kyoto.

In the Golden Palace, the young Duke cried bitterly, regretting that he had shown partiality out of filial piety and he really couldn't bear to see his mother suffer.

The Duke's filial piety moved the heavens, and all the officials present were moved.

Just imagine how they would bear to see their elderly mothers make mistakes.

But a country is a country, a country has its own laws, and a family has its own rules.

The stepmother, the Minister of War, and a group of related personnel were beheaded at Caishikou.

From then on, the Duke avenged his previous humiliation and gained a reputation as a filial son.

As for the remaining eldest brother, huh, he was like a hopeless case. After a few years, he fell into a woman's belly.

However, the Duke, who held great power, only lived a carefree life for a few years. As the saying goes, "a man of great achievements threatens his master", how could he not be feared by the emperor?

How could an old fox like Duke Feng Xiang in the court not notice this? After careful consideration, he handed over all the military power in his hands.

He had lived happily for several years with the beautiful daughter in the mansion. It was during these years that the children in the mansion gradually grew up. Looking at his daughter who was becoming more and more graceful, he began to have other ideas.

If the person sitting in that seat was his grandson... then it would be like he was ruling half the country.

With this plan, he sent his daughter to the palace. Who could have thought that her belly would not keep up? After three years, there was no sign of pregnancy.

It is also because of this that the original owner's tragic fate began.

It's really a nest of snakes, insects, rats and ants.

If he wanted to be the emperor's grandfather, he could have sent the original owner to the palace like the legitimate daughter. However, because of the legitimate mother's unreasonable demands, the concubine's daughter of the Duke's Mansion became a maid. She couldn't even get the lowest position, and she gave birth to three fat boys for nothing.

It’s unjust. He died unjustly.

Wen Nuan glanced around the room, and the more she looked, the tighter her frown became.

That shameless thing took countless silver and money from the original owner's maternal grandfather's home, and ended up letting the two siblings live in this dilapidated courtyard.

Although life wasn't very good when the original owner's mother was still alive, at least they had enough food and clothing.

Children without their mothers are like weeds. Once their mother passed away, the brother and sister were driven here.

Looking at the little one in her arms, she felt warm and caring. If she hadn't come, the child would have stayed six years old forever.

The original owner's mother passed away when the child was three years old, and the child has long had a vague impression of his mother.

As far as he can remember, this child has only had an older sister.

The child was precocious, and vaguely realized the situation of her two sisters. She never cried or made a fuss on weekdays, and was very well-behaved. She would do whatever her sister said. Even if she was hungry for a long time, she would secretly go to drink cold water and never cause trouble for her sister.

That beast had the heart to harm such a well-behaved child.

Warm eyes with dark colors.

Since the original owner was unwilling to believe, there was no need for these two sisters to exist. Why were they kept until now?

Huh~

I guess they were used to control the original owner's maternal family.

Although the original owner's maternal family has not been as prosperous as before in recent years, their ability to make money is still very impressive.

As long as the two sisters are around, the original owner's maternal family will automatically send them money.

It seems that the shameless guy treated the original owner's maternal grandfather's home as his own money bag.
