Duke Zheng's words surprised the Duke's wife.

"I thought that if my uncle told you, your husband, you would agree."

Zheng Guogong smiled bitterly, "Madam, could it be that in your eyes, my husband is such a confused person?

Didn’t my uncle’s family just watch our daughter disappear for many years, and we have no children, and rack their brains to get us to agree to adopt his grandson to us?

If we really agree, once his grandson becomes the heir apparent of the Duke's Palace, then the Duke's Palace will completely change hands!

Before my father passed away, he told me to protect the Duke's mansion. I must fulfill my father's last wish! "

The Duke's wife held her husband's hand reassuringly, "I know, husband, I have a premonition this time that we will definitely find our daughter!"

You sit and go out to see what your uncle wants to say. "

"No, go for your husband."

Zheng Guogong stood up and opened the door and went out. The person standing at the door was indeed his uncle.

"Uncle, it's so late and you haven't rested yet, but what's the matter?"

Zheng Guogong's expression was calm and distant.

Zheng Erqiang, who was already in his sixties, seemed unable to tell that Duke Zheng was in a bad mood, smiling with a shy old face.

"Ze'er, uncle heard that something happened in the palace tonight, I wonder what it was?

My uncle is very curious, so tell him about it. "

"Uncle, how do you know what happened in the palace? Who told you?"

Zheng Guogong stared at Zheng Erqiang's cloudy eyes and asked.

"Hey, this is not what my uncle said when he went out for a walk and overheard someone coming out of the palace."

Zheng Erqiang still acts like a fool even at his age.

"Really? I don't dare to tell my uncle what happened in the palace. After all, the current Holy Emperor has never said that it can be spread outside.

Uncle, it's best not to be too curious. If the emperor hears about it, I can't bear the responsibility.

It's getting late, uncle should rest early. "

After Zheng Guogong said in a deep voice, he pretended to close the door.

But Zheng Erqiang stretched out his hand to block it.

"Ze'er, how have you considered what your uncle told you before?"

Zheng Erqiang smiled playfully.

Zheng Guogong's eyes were a little colder, and he pretended to be stupid without changing his expression, "My uncle once told me many things. I don't know what he was talking about.

But it’s not too early, so let’s talk about it tomorrow. "

After saying this, Zheng Guogong quickly closed the door.

As soon as the door closed, Zheng Erqiang's old face turned gloomy, and he left cursing.

Duke Zheng returned to the house and sat down next to his wife, sighing with a sad face.

"Madam, it seems that someone in our Duke's mansion has been bribed by my uncle's family.

It's time to clean up the servants in the mansion. "

The Duke’s wife nodded, “It’s time to clean up, and by the way, let’s have someone investigate Prince Gong’s concubine.

Now that Prince Gong is detained by the Emperor in Prince Gong's Mansion, it is convenient for our people to investigate. "

"Okay, husband, I will give you the order."

The Duke and his wife discussed it and called the secret guard to give detailed instructions.

On the other side, Zheng Erqiang returned to the yard where his family lived, cursing.

"Dad, what did my cousin say? We have been talking about the adoption for a long time. Does he agree to adopt our Yi'er as his son?"

When Zheng Erqiang's only son Zheng Yaozu saw his father coming back, he couldn't wait to ask about it.

Zheng Erqiang felt a little annoyed when he saw his son's careless look.

"I agree to my request, I'm just pretending to be stupid!

You good-for-nothing! You are still messing around at your age!

I really can’t count on you! "

Zheng Yaozu curled his lips, "Father, don't talk about your son. If you have the ability, you can become a Duke like your uncle. Then I can inherit and become a Duke like my cousin."

Zheng Erqiang choked, his eyes turned red, and he raised his hand angrily to slap his son.

Zheng Yaozu ducked aside, "Dad, don't get angry because your son is telling the truth!

As the saying goes, if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. As an father, don't despise your son, and your son will not despise you!

My cousin's daughter has been lost for so many years and it is impossible to find her again.

He has no children, and our Yi'er is now the only bloodline of the Zheng family.

Dad, work hard and ask your cousin to adopt Yi'er and make Yi'er the eldest son of the Duke's family!

Then we can benefit from Yi'er's glory! "

Zheng Erqiang glared at Zheng Yaozu angrily, "Do you think I don't want your cousin to adopt Yi'er as his son?

But your cousin has been avoiding talking about this matter, or he is just pretending to be stupid!

It’s been more than twenty years! The couple are actually still looking for their daughter!

Really unwilling to give up! "

Zheng Erqiang became irritated when he mentioned this matter.

He is already over sixty years old!

How many more people can there be who are more than twenty years old? !

He couldn't rest in peace for a day without seeing Yi'er become the heir apparent of the Duke's Mansion!

Zheng Yaozu rolled his eyes with a sly look on his face.

“Dad, what if my cousins ​​find their daughter’s body?

They have been searching for more than 20 years, isn't it because they believe that the person is still alive?

If they were allowed to find the body, they would be sure that their daughter was really dead.

Maybe they will reconsider Ji Yier's matter! "

Zheng Yaozu's words made the eyes of Mrs. Zheng and Zheng Wang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who had been sitting silently by the side, light up.

"Old man, what Yao Zu said makes sense, why haven't we thought of this in the past twenty years or so!

This is feasible, how about we think of a way to get a corpse to confuse the couple!

Anyway, they don’t know what the birthmark on that little bitchy hoof looks like or where it is.

We just need to find a corpse with similar facial features to the couple! "

Zheng Erqiang frowned when he heard this, "This is easy to say, but where can I get the body?

Do you think there are corpses all over the streets? Can you easily find a corpse with similar facial features to the couple? "

"That's what dad said, we can only discuss this matter in the long term.

Anyway, more than twenty years have passed, and the child has not been found for more than twenty years. It cannot be found immediately now.

We don't have to rush, and maybe the child will be dead long ago.

We don’t need to scare ourselves.

As for the corpse, let’s take a look. Maybe we can get a suitable corpse when we can! "

The killing intent flashed through Zheng Yaozu's mung bean eyes.

“Okay, old man, just do as Yaozu said.

Our Yaozu is still smart! "

Mrs. Zheng was kindly praising her smart son who was doing nothing at home, eating and waiting to die.

Zheng Yaozu's daughter-in-law, Zheng Wangshi, didn't say anything, but her shining eyes full of admiration fell on Zheng Yaozu and she couldn't move away.
