Lu Rushuang's thoughts were not difficult to guess for Fang Ling.

In her previous life, she could always be extremely loving.

Just because no one touches her interests.

In the past, she was in charge of the central government of the Duke's Mansion alone.

My father never asked about the accounts.

Even the dowry left by her mother was under her control.

She sent a lot of money from the Duke's palace to her parents' house.

Most of the dowry left by her mother eventually fell into her hands.

Therefore, how could she possibly break up with her father?

She has plenty of money and rewards her servants generously.

Therefore, everyone in the Duke's mansion said well about her.

In this life, Fang Ling reminded her father to pay attention to Zhongfu's accounts.

He also forced her to return her mother's dowry.

This move brought the fire under the cauldron and directly forced Lu Rushuang's true face out.

She slowly stepped forward and calmly defended her father.

"Step-grandmother, my father did all this for your own good and is definitely not unfilial."

Lu Rushuang looked at Fang Ling after hearing this.

There was unconcealable resentment in his eyes.

Fang Ling ignored her completely and her tone remained calm.

"According to the laws of the Daliang Kingdom, those who embezzle more than one thousand taels of black money will be punished with twenty whippings and one year in prison."

"Those who are guilty of corruption will be punished with thirty lashes and jailed for more than five years."

"Anyone who embezzles more than 100,000 taels of ink will be punished with fifty lashes and life imprisonment."

"Everyone in Daliang knows this law. You old man don't know it, right?"

Lu Rushuang felt guilty, but she maintained her momentum and retorted.

"It's all my own business, why should I be involved in punishment?"

"Tomorrow, are you really planning to send your mother to prison?"

Fang Shuming remained silent.

Although he was extremely disappointed with Lu Rushuang.

But for his father's sake, he didn't plan to do anything too extreme.

He handled the matter with a merciful and forgiving attitude.

Therefore, in the end, we just plan to take back the power of managing the middle feed.

Unexpectedly, his stepmother was not grateful for his mercy, but instead used filial piety to pressure herself.

He also wanted to accuse himself of disobedience.

Daliang ruled the country with filial piety.

The crime of disobedience and unfilial piety can range from loss of office to dismissal in Daliang.

The worst case scenario is imprisonment for at least ten years.

Therefore, Fang Shuming was heartbroken.

The person he had been calling mother for so many years.

It turned out that he was not regarded as one of his own at all.

Fang Ling didn't want to embarrass her father, so she spoke her mind for him.

"Father's respect for you has always been sincere."

"He just cares about the family relationship with you, so he doesn't plan to pursue it."

"But even for such a simple request as asking you to hand over the power of the family, you can say that your father is disobedient to you."

"You are so cruel to your father, which shows that you do not regard your father as your own child."

Lu Rushuang didn't know how to answer the question for a moment.

Although Fang Shuming has always been respectful and filial to him.

But after all, he was not the biological son born from her belly.

Without any blood relations, the relationship is not strong at all.

Not as practical as money.

This is what she has always thought and done.

No, I know she was greedy and lost the little money she received.

So he took his servants and his own children and came to accuse her.

If it were a biological child, he would not do this to his mother.

Fang Ling saw Lu Rushuang squinting her eyes and thinking deeply, and knew what she was thinking.

"Step-grandmother, please don't think that my father is unreliable."

"My father has always treated you no differently than your biological mother."

"You did something wrong yourself, and you deserve what you are suffering now."

"I can't blame my father."

After Fang Ling said these words, Fang Jinhang followed her words and said:

"My step-grandmother was greedy for bribes and secretly donated the dowry left by my mother to her parents' family."

"It shows that you really don't regard us as family."

"As the saying goes, if the mother is unkind, the son will be unfilial, so don't resent your father."

"Father is soft-hearted. If this matter were left to me to decide, it would never be so simple."

Lu Rushuang's old face turned red with embarrassment after being told this directly.

She simply broke the jar and threw it away.

Lifting the quilt, he stood up and pointed at Fang Shuming, Fang Jinhang and Fang Ling with trembling fingers.

"Stepmother? Stepgrandmother?"

"You also know that I am the successor. So why should I be sincere to you if that's the case?"

"But even if I admit it, what can you do to me?"

"I am the step-in-law of the old Marquis, and this can never be changed."

"I'm greedy for money from the Duke's government, and I don't have the money anymore."

"It's impossible to come back."

"If you don't want face, go to my parents' house and ask for it."

"However, if you dare to go to my parents' house to ask for money, I will kill you on the stone lion outside the house."

"I want to see if you, Fang Shuming, can bear the responsibility of forcing your stepmother to death?"

After hearing these words, Fang Shuming staggered and almost fell.

Fang Jinhang hurriedly stretched out his hand to support him.

Lu Rushuang would be so crazy.

Neither Fang Shuming nor Fang Jinhang thought of it.

Fortunately, Fang Ling was fully mentally prepared.

She asked her brother to help her father down to rest.

My father cares too much about family ties.

His feelings for his step-grandmother are also deep.

She didn't want her father to directly confront Lu Rushuang, who was so crazy that he had lost his mind.

Just leave the rest to her.

How could Fang Shuming and Fang Jinhang, father and son, trust Fang Ling to handle the matter alone.

Fang Ling curled her lips slightly and saluted her father and brother.

"It's more appropriate for me to handle the affairs of the back house."

"Don't worry, I will handle it properly and never let my father and brother lose face."

Her eyes were very determined.

Fang Shuming and his son felt inexplicably relieved.

The two thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement.

Upon seeing this, Aunt Liu lowered her head and secretly followed the father and son, trying to escape.

"Aunt Liu, you will stay with us."

Fang Ling's tone was calm, but it gave people an undeniable majesty.

Aunt Liu looked at Fang Shuming with pleading eyes.

"Listen to Ling'er."

Fang Shuming said lightly.

Fang Shuming... is really ruthless.

No matter what, I am also the biological mother of your children.

You don't even have the slightest intention of protecting me.

But she didn't dare to say these words.

She could only stop and watch Fang Shuming and his son leave.

Lu Rushuang was greatly relieved when she saw this.

Although Fang Ling didn't know why, she suddenly changed her temper.

But after all, she is still a girl who has not yet left the court.

No matter how you say it, you should be pure of heart.

It's much easier to coax or shock.

Lu Rushuang calculated this.

But she was not. Fang Ling was someone who had returned from a new life.

In the previous life, Fang Ling was not very careful about calculating other people's habits in the back house.

But after all, she has also been a princess and a queen.

Lu Rushuang is just an old woman who has been trapped in the back house of the Duke's mansion for most of her life.

How could it be compared to the empress who had been in charge of the Phoenix Seal?
