Chapter 498 Obsession

There is a document issued by the Huguang government, Geng Hao and Lei Chen can change horses at the post station; it will be a trivial matter to go to the capital in Huguang like this...

Geng Hao returned to his home in the capital, and did not have time to rest, so he immediately prepared to write a divorce letter!

He thought it all about it.

He came to the study, and after grinding the ink, he began to write, describing the reasons for wanting to divorce his wife Wu: one is that he failed to give birth to children, and the other is that he is unfilial to his parents-in-law (not living together).

At this time, his wife Wu suddenly came in.

Brother Geng!Wu's face was full of smiles and she called out lightly.

She held her skirt in both hands, ran in happily, hugged Geng Hao's arm, and rubbed her face against him.

Seeing that his wife was so stupid, Geng Hao couldn't help but sigh.

With Wu's mind, she could not tell the difference between true love and falsehood, and only knew that Geng Hao was good to her.So as long as Geng Hao didn't beat her up, even if he was writing a divorce letter, it would not make her sad.

Geng Hao treated her very well before. Many servants and maids in this mansion were given by Wu Gao, the Marquis of Jiangyin. So many people stared at her. Will Geng Hao dare to treat Wu Gao’s daughter badly?

At this moment, the maid who was looking after Wu said in a low voice: Madam asks you every day when you will go home, so I miss you.

Sure enough, Wu was wiping tears, but immediately pestered Geng Hao with a smile, Brother Geng accompanied me.Geng Hao frowned, and suddenly pushed Wu away, turned to the maid at the door and said: Go and pass on my meaning, prepare the carriage.The lady is going back to the Wu family.

The maid was stunned for a moment and bent her knees and said: Yes.

But Wu stood there blankly, looking at Geng Hao with great grievance.

She is not ugly, but she has a tender skin and tender flesh. Her face is white and her facial features are also very upright, but her expression is silly at first glance.

Geng Hao found a purse in the study, put the divorce book in his purse, and then hung it on Wu's neck.

When she returned to the Wu family, the people there would naturally understand after reading the divorce book hanging in front of her neck.

If Geng Hao had used to be brave enough, he would not have dared to humiliate the Wu family like this; but now, the situation is completely different!

Not long after, Geng Hao casually found some Wu's clothes, put them in a bag, and stuffed the bag into a carriage to fill it with luggage.Then he ordered the groom and the servants to send the Wu family directly back to the Wu family.

Wu cried in the carriage, and admitted her mistake while crying, saying that she wanted to be obedient.She couldn't figure out the complicated situation at all, and she just said that she didn't want her because she got angry with her husband.

Geng Hao saw the situation in front of him, Wu's face was full of tears and eyes on the carriage. He suddenly felt a little uncomfortable and quickly avoided... Geng Hao thought he had never treated Wu sincerely, but now he found that he still had some indescribable feelings for Wu, perhaps because he had been together for a long time.

However, this compassion cannot change Geng Hao's decision.

The Wu family has lost power, and the Jiangyin Marquis will probably not be much better than the situation of their Geng family in the near future. And the Wu family is a fool, and Geng Hao will quickly settle down without making any decisions. What else can he do?

Geng Hao felt mixed emotions.He looked at the carriage that was leaving and thought to himself: I can't blame me for this, the world is like this; what the Mu family did back then was even more ruthless, wasn't it so ruthless?

Mu Sheng and his daughter taught him what to do!When Geng Hao thought of this, his sadness gradually disappeared and his heart was filled with coldness.

Geng Hao turned around and was about to enter the corner gate.At this moment, he suddenly saw a familiar face.

A carriage had just driven past the street in front of the door. The curtain of the car raised and revealed a woman's face, flashing by... Geng Hao immediately thought of Geng, the wife of King Jingjiang.

He hurriedly turned around and saw two carriages on the street. The carriage the woman was riding in was in front and the curtain had been lowered.

He looked around the street for a while and soon thought: Lei Tian and I rode a horse on the post road. It took a short time to go from Changsha Prefecture to the capital. Mrs. Geng could not have arrived at the capital so quickly.

Geng Hao suddenly sighed in dismay.

He was about to go back home, but unexpectedly he saw the two carriages stopping on the street.

Geng Hao was curious, and he stopped and waited to see if the woman would show up. Just now, he vaguely felt that the woman was somewhat similar to Mrs. Geng, but he couldn't see clearly.

The woman was sitting in the carriage without any movement, but the curtain of the car behind her was lifted.

Geng Hao was very surprised to find that Lei Tian's face was pale and thin!

Lei Tian stretched out his hand and waved Geng Hao. This movement was repeated three times, and then the curtain was put down.

Geng Hao was confused and walked up immediately.He clasped his fists behind the carriage and said: Since Officer Leko has arrived, why not sit in a humble house?

Lei Tian's voice said: Please General Geng get in the car.

Geng Hao hesitated for a moment, then lifted the curtain behind the car and walked up. This Lei Tian is an acquaintance and a court official; Geng Hao didn't think there was anything to be afraid of, it was just strange.

As soon as he got on the carriage, Geng Hao was stunned again, and saw a high-quality official wearing a red robe sitting inside!

The official looked wide-body, fat, square-shaped, big ears, white skin and redness, and a very good complexion.His whole body exudes a stable official spirit.

The official said calmly: This official is Yuan Gong, the Minister of Taichang Temple.General Geng, I’m lucky to meet.

Don't dare to be it!Don't dare to be... Geng Hao hurriedly bowed, wanting to salute, but he couldn't stand up in this carriage.

Yuan Gong said: No need to be too polite.After saying that, he glanced at Lei Tian.Lei Tian reached out and clapped his hand on the wooden board of the car, and the groom drove the car away.

Yuan Gong smiled and said: I'm afraid General Geng will laugh.I have a relative who has been widowed for several years and has never given birth to children. I often advise her to remarry; but she is very picky and has never met someone she likes, so I didn't worry less.I sent her back to my house today and happened to pass by here, so I was destined to meet General Geng at first sight.

Oh... Geng Hao immediately remembered the beautiful woman he had just glanced at.

Lei Tian said next to him: Lord Yuan admires General Geng’s righteous deeds in Guangxi very much.

Geng Hao's face was hot, and he hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "Officer Lei Ke has been awarded too much. It is a blessing for the last time to meet someone like Lord Yuan!"

Yuan Gong waved his hand, looking very easy-going, and asked: Did you hear that General Geng met the British Duke Zhang Fu in Changsha Prefecture?

Geng Hao said: If you say so, Lord Yuan, yes.

Yuan Gong pondered for a moment and said: General Geng may not know much about Zhang Fu, but when he was still an official in the Yàn Palace, he knew Zhang Fu.

Such a person who has been fighting has been living a life of blood licking from the edge of a sword all day long, thinking about how to win; now he is a Duke of the country and has no credibility at all. It is said that he is a soldier who is never tired of deceitful!I have known him for so many years, so I can tell you this way that the promises and farts of the Duke of England are completely the same thing.

Geng Hao suddenly stared at his eyes, not knowing how to respond.

The Duke of the State is a very awesome figure to him, but Yuan Gong dares to scold him so unscrupulously?

Geng Hao also felt from the conversation that Yuan Gong was not an ordinary person!

Yuan Gong asked again: Does General Geng know about Gu Cheng, the Marquis of Zhenyuan?

Geng Hao replied cautiously: I will hear it a little.

Do you know what he was cheated by Zhang Fu?Yuan Gong asked again.

Geng Hao shook his head.

Yuan Gong patiently explained to Geng Hao, saying that Zhang Fu promised Gu Cheng and swore to speak for Gu Cheng, and tricked the seriously ill Gu Cheng to stabilize the morale of the army; then stabbed Gu Cheng in the back and falsely accused Gu Cheng of colluding with the rebels... These things are really not something that ordinary people can know, and it was the first time Geng Hao heard about the ins and outs of it.

After talking about the past, Yuan Gong asked again: When Zhang Fu met General Geng, what did you ask you to do?

Geng Hao looked embarrassed and stammered without saying a complete sentence.

Seeing this, Yuan Gong looked like he suddenly realized his mind.He immediately said kindly: This official knows that General Geng is afraid of Zhang Fu.But because of this, you have to find a big backer.

What does Lord Yuan mean?Geng Hao frowned.

Yuan Gong did not answer, but just sneered and said: What did General Zhang Fu Nuo Geng do you think? There is nothing to say about this matter!

Geng Hao thought for a while, let out a long breath, and said in a deep voice: The title of Marquis of Changxing.

Hehe... Yuan Gong actually smiled with a mocking expression on his face, and Lei Tian beside him even smiled and shook his head.

This made Geng Hao even more embarrassed. For a moment, he felt like a fool, and his thoughts could be seen clearly. Geng Hao not only felt embarrassed, but also gradually became a little angry.

Geng Hao frowned and said: What Lord Yuan meant is that it is impossible to restore his ancestral title?

Just as Lei Tian was about to speak, Yuan Gong suddenly raised his hand to stop him.

Then Yuan Gong said seriously: Of course it can be done, our Ming Dynasty’s titles can be inherited!But how could Zhang Fu help with this kind of thing?His promise was ridiculous.

oh?Geng Hao was confused.

Yuan Gong said in a deep voice: Only the emperor can decide on the title, and everyone in the officialdom understands it! General Geng doesn’t understand? Only the confidant civil officials around the emperor can play some role, and even the official dares to fully guarantee what he, Zhang Fu, can do, a military general?

Geng Hao hurriedly said: I will never change my last general and I don’t have much experience. Please teach me Lord Yuan.

Yuan Gong sighed and asked: What would General Geng want if Zhang Fu broke his promise afterwards?

Geng Hao pondered endlessly.

Yuan Gong asked again: You believe that Zhang Fu will help you sincerely, why?If he really wants to win over you and cultivate you, the best way is to first marry a strong relationship, but now it is just empty talk!

After Yuan Gong reminded him, Geng Hao also felt that Zhang Fu was indeed unreliable, as if he had no sincerity!Geng Hao even remembered Hu Yi back then, and he also vowed but turned against him and refused to recognize others.

At this time, Yuan Gong's voice said: What did Zhang Fu ask General Geng to do? If you say it, we can help you learn more about it, so don’t be used by others in a daze.
