The old lady sighed with emotion, Ganlu went forward to help her back to the inner room, and after helping the old lady lie down, she said softly: "Second Young Master's wife is right, you must relax, Madam can handle all matters in the mansion. Over the years, Madam has been fair and thorough in her work."

"Madam has punished Aunt Cai for her misdeeds, but she is the prince's wet nurse after all, and Madam, as a stepmother, should not go too far. Madam Second Young Master should also understand this and not resent Madam."

The old lady naturally knew all this, and she just said that it was through this incident that she got to know Xin An again, "How could the old man's choice be wrong?"

After the incident, she was not panicked and was able to defend herself with reason and evidence. She seized the opponent's loopholes and fought back. She also made a fuss, showing that she is not easy to bully. She will judge the situation and stop when she sees an advantage. This is how the wife of the prince of the marquis's mansion should be.

As for taking away Tang Gang's treasures, she could only say that he deserved it. He had never given anything in return to the Xin family over the years, so he deserved to bleed.

He also thought that such a good boy married such a good wife by accident. Maybe he was treated unfairly by his father over the years and the old man couldn't stand it, so he gave him this as compensation.

"I will accompany you to live outside for a while in the early spring of next year, and let Madam and the Marquis take care of the affairs in the mansion."

Ganlu's proposal was very much to the old lady's liking. The master and servant talked, and the candlelight flickered...

"Young Madam, you may not know that the people next door are so angry today that their noses are crooked."

As soon as Xin An returned to Qiushi Courtyard, Nan Feng approached with a smile, "In the morning, the Madam and the Young Madam sent generous gifts one after another to the neighboring house without saying a word. They said that when the prince woke up and learned the whole story, he got very angry and his wound burst because of it."

"At noon, when we were stewing pork ribs, the restaurant next door closed the door and decided to turn a blind eye."

Chunhuayuan closed its doors but the fragrance could not be contained. "A gust of wind blew the smell to the next door. God is on our side. They just shot themselves in the foot. They deserve it!"

The feud between the two courts grew deeper and deeper. Qiushi Court had the upper hand in this round. For a long time, the people in Qiushi Court could not jump. "Earlier, three pregnant women in the court jumped so high. When they saw the important people in our court, they boasted a few words and made innuendos. Let's see how arrogant they think they are."

Xin An drank the hawthorn water in small sips, thinking about his next plan.

It was a cold winter night. Before closing the door, the gatekeeper of the Duke of Xiangguo's Mansion saw several people who claimed to be from the Weiyuan Marquis' Mansion, carrying a large sack and saying that the Marquis of the Mansion had a gift for the Duke of Xiangguo.

Duke Xiangguo raised his eyebrows when he saw the half-dead man in black in the sack, "What do you mean, are you trying to threaten me?"

Zhu You worked hard on the farm, and his condition gradually improved. He could even eat a big bowl of rice. Although Duke Xiangguo was satisfied with the result, it did not mean that the feud between him and Tang Gang was over. Now he only felt that Tang Mo was the only one who liked him in Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion. As for that Tang Rong...

He appears to be a righteous man on weekdays, claiming to be a modest gentleman, but in fact he is a thief and a whore. He is not a good person.

He wrote a letter of complaint on the spot. As the victim, he did not hold Tang Rong accountable, but Tang Gang dared to threaten him with a dead man. It was simply outrageous.

The man was alive when he was sent there, and although his injuries looked severe, they were actually only superficial wounds, with no injuries to his bones or muscles. No one knew what the Duke of Xiangguo had done, but the man in black soon died. It was then believed that Tang Gang had thrown the dead body into the Duke of Xiangguo's mansion as a deliberate revenge.

At the court session the next morning, Duke Xiangguo launched an attack in public, catching Tang Gang off guard.

He never expected that the Duke of Xiangguo would dare to cry "stop thief", and he immediately quarreled with the Duke of Xiangguo until their faces turned red. Only when the emperor turned his face black did the two stop quarreling. After the court session, they went to the imperial study to continue quarreling. Only when the emperor threw the memorial did the two calm down. Then he gave the two three days to investigate the matter. If they could not find out the truth after three days, they would be severely punished.

Originally, Tang Rong's accident had been kept secret, but the quarrel between the two put Tang Rong in the spotlight. It was unknown whether Tang Rong would "thank" his father for his efforts, but people outside really didn't know what to say about his experience.

"How can a person be so unlucky? How many times has this happened?"

"Could it be that he offended someone? This is too unlucky."

"Is it possible that he collided with something? Otherwise, how can we explain it?"

It would be fine if it happened once or twice, but this time it happened so many times that there must be something wrong. Some people even speculated that Tang Rong and Tao Yiran must have conflicting horoscopes, otherwise how could two people who were so successful before marriage end up with so many disasters together?

"I think the girl from the Tao family is too tough."

"I think it might have ruined their marriage. I heard that the old marquis fell in love with the girl from the Xin family at first sight. After returning to the court, the old lady of the marquis's mansion took the girl's horoscope to the Imperial Observatory and said that her horoscope was very good."

"That's what I see. Don't you think the second son of the Tang family is living a more prosperous life after marriage? I heard from my master that he is doing a good job and even made meritorious service a few days ago..."

The capital was already bustling with the approach of the end of the year, and Tang Rong's incident gave everyone more topics to talk about after dinner. Fortunately, the marquis's mansion under the control of Wang was relatively peaceful, and all kinds of gossip were kept out of the door.

Xin An was not afraid of Tang Gang's investigation. Firstly, it had been a while since the beating of Zhao Wen and Ma Qi. Secondly, Tang Mo had made the arrangement in the name of Tang Rong, so the investigation would only lead to Tang Rong.

"I don't know what to say. It's my bad luck."

Lin Yao invited Xin An to appreciate the chrysanthemums to find out the inside story. Xin An did not hide anything in front of her and complained bitterly, "It just so happened that my husband was not at home these two days. If I hadn't been innocent, I would have been wrongly accused."

Lin Yao couldn't believe her ears. She never expected Tang Gang to be so partial to him. She patted Xin An's arm and consoled him, "I'm telling you, people who are too partial to him won't have a good ending."

"Look around, whether it's the royal family or the common people, the one who is favored by the family without any reason usually has no future. On the contrary, the one who is not favored will live a better life."

Xin An joked, "So what? I'm the one my father prefers."

Lin Yao smiled and hit her, "Your father favors you but he treats your brother well, what's wrong with feeling sorry for a married girl?"

As he spoke, he pretended to pinch his fingers and said, "I counted with my fingers and found that you are very lucky."

Xin An echoed, "The fairy lady is really effective. To thank her for her protection, I specially present a box of Shanghai ginseng, which is of high quality. This thing can not only strengthen the body, nourish the kidneys and improve the essence, but also make men as strong as dragons and tigers after taking it."

"I hope the fairy lady will accept it."

"Well you bad girl."

Lin Yao directly tickled her ticklish spot, "You dare to tease me, Fairy Lady, I will punish you. I will get another pound of it for Second Brother Tang to fill his mouth with, and see if you can handle it."

"Hahahaha, good sister, spare my life. Hahahaha, Fairy, let me go."
