Xin An's speculation was not nonsense. Tang Mo's face was as gloomy as water. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high. Anger surged in his heart. Xin An slowly sat down beside him without saying a word to comfort him.

Tang Mo is very vivid and real. He is not as ruthless and calculating as Tang Rong. If it weren’t for the events of his previous life and Tang Rong, he would naturally be able to live an innocent life.

But Tang Rong had obviously come to her senses. If he faced Tang Mo directly and schemed again, she was worried that Tang Mo would suffer.

Tang Mo's heart was surging with emotions, but fortunately he had controlled himself well after these days' experience. He just told himself in his heart: Great, I have another reason to kill Tang Rong.

He was determined to bring disgrace upon Tang Rong and make him live the rest of his life like a rat that could not stand the light of day. A simple death would be too easy for him.

"He has built up a good reputation since he was young. People outside have a natural sense of trust in him. His flaws do not outweigh his merits. If I want to surpass him, I must have solid strength. What he is using now are all petty tricks that are not worthy of being put on the stage."

Tang Mo did not say anything like regret or if he had known earlier. He admitted that Tang Rong was very capable and that he was not even close to being as good as him. However, he believed that he would be able to face Tang Rong head-on in the future.

Xin An turned her head to look at her and gave him a faint smile. She thought that if she and Tang Mo were still unable to defeat Tang Rong, she would choose the most torturous poison to send Tang Rong to death.

Tang Mo exhaled and suddenly became curious about Xin An.

Because the two of them had the same circumstances and the same adventures, and had been protecting each other's secrets over the days, he had a natural trust in Xin An.

But when the two of them came back, they were similar and didn't have a good grasp of the situation outside. But after not long, he clearly felt that Xin An was changing and had already touched the edge of those complicated situations.

"What do you usually do at home?"

Xin An responded to this sudden question subconsciously, "Enjoy it."

"Haven't you noticed that my skin is getting better and better?"

She used the best skin care products, and Doctor Zhao came to her house every few days to apply facial masks on her. She had someone to help her beautify her back, and she drank two bowls of bird's nest every day. When she had nothing to do, she could make appointments to go out and talk or watch a play. Her life was so good.

Tang Mo looked closer and could even see the fuzz on her forehead. "Not only is your skin getting better, but you're also getting smarter?"

Xin An was a little proud, "Do you think that when I go out to make friends, I only talk about clothes and jewelry?"

Tang Mo stepped back and sat down again. "It seems that I need to strengthen not only my training but also my brain. I will go find two books on military strategy tomorrow."

“That’s how it should be.”

Xin An couldn't watch him being content with the status quo, nor was he qualified to be content with the status quo. "You have to remember one thing about him. Beiya Army is just your starting point. You are going to a better place. Do you want to stay there forever?"

"That must not happen."

Tang Mo said that he was not idle, not lazy, and was making progress.

The two of them tacitly stopped talking about their past lives. It must be said that both of them were making rapid progress. In such a short period of time, they were no longer affected by those bad things and were only thinking about what to do in the future.

"The old man and the guy next door are trying to find a way out. I have an idea, but I'll tell you first. I'll go ask Luo Qi tomorrow."

After Luo Qiwen received Tang Mo's money, he asked the person who rented his house to leave. He also cleaned up a study room and opened a small door to discuss matters with Tang Mo.

Xin An said he was all ears, and the two of them huddled together and whispered. Chunlu, who came to deliver the bird's nest, stood at the door waiting consciously. Their young lady had rules that as long as she and the second young master were talking, no one could disturb them and they had to watch the door.

Xin An felt that Tang Mo needed to go to Luo Qi to ask for advice immediately, and once he had a solution, he should tell Tang Gang overnight to avoid missing the opportunity.

Tang Mo drank a bowl of bird's nest and was about to go out in a hurry. Xin An suddenly remembered something and said, "Wait."

Tang Gang was not a talented person. It could be said that he had no special qualities and was extremely mediocre. However, he had been in charge of the Marquisate for many years and everything had been going very smoothly. In her previous life, she thought it was the old Marquis's blessing.

She was right, but she didn't know the inside story until Tang Rong told her one day.

It turned out that Mr. Tang had never personally taught Tang Gang martial arts or military tactics, nor had he taught Tang Yong. At that time, all he wanted to do was to return the military power, retreat at the right time, and preserve the glory of the Marquisate.

It was precisely because he knew how to handle current affairs that he saved the emperor a lot of unnecessary trouble, so that after the old man passed away, the emperor took good care of Tang Gang.

"So my father has some respect in the eyes of the emperor. His mediocrity may be innate, but it is also due to the deliberate guidance of my grandfather. The emperor admires my grandfather, so he treats my father differently."

"It was Tang Rong who noticed this."

Tang Mo thought about it carefully, figured it out, and then left in a hurry.

Xin An looked at the dark clouds overhead and the increasingly dark sky, his gaze slowly falling in the direction of Chunhua Courtyard.

After a muffled thunder, bean-sized raindrops fell with a crackling sound, splashing up dust.

The second prince acted very quickly, and those bored people trapped in teahouses and taverns due to the heavy rain soon heard the news. Tao Yiran was originally a "celebrity" in the city, and now there was news about her, which naturally attracted many curious people.

The Second Prince's men controlled the strength of this first step very well. After all, they only saw it as an opportunity and did not want to make a big fuss about it. The rain also helped them.

The next morning, the Censor heard the news and reported the matter to the Crown Princess. The Crown Prince's people naturally tried their best to refute it and put the blame on Tao Yiran, saying that Tao Yiran was the one who offered to play the piano and even ran to the Crown Prince's residence on the day of the Yueyue Banquet. Her words were full of desire to attend the Yueyue Banquet.

"The Crown Princess is kind and couldn't bear to see her go in vain, so she took her there."

Tang Gang, who was furious, watched the two sides fight expressionlessly, pretending not to feel the strange looks from his colleagues. When the fighting reached him, he stepped out calmly and said, "After leaving the Yueyue Banquet, my eldest daughter-in-law went straight back to the Tao family. I heard that she kept crying and refused to drink tea. She also refused to talk about the specific reason."

After that, he fell silent.

The prince's men kept insisting that the Tao family had been to the marquis's mansion yesterday, so how could he not know the inside story?

Tang Gang was very calm, "Lord Tao and his wife came to the mansion to inquire about the reason why their beloved daughter returned home, but they don't know, so how can I find out?"

"My son is still recovering from his wounds. He is feeling uncomfortable because of the new flesh growing from his wounds. He cannot leave the house for a while. Lord Liu wants to know. Why don't you wait for two more days?"

After all, he was the Marquis, so he straightened his back and the officials didn't dare to ask him any more questions. Besides, wasn't it normal for him, a father-in-law, not to know about his daughter-in-law's affairs?

In this way, neither the Second Prince's men nor the Crown Prince's men could force him to say anything. Fortunately, the other party did not care much and continued the verbal battle.
