Tang Gang felt furious when he saw Tang Mo's asking-for-a-beating look. He had never expected this bastard to be so childish and mean. He took advantage of Tang Rong's injury and the difficulty he had getting up to give him a laxative, intending to disgust him to death.

Yet he admitted it so openly, without any intention of covering it up. He was sure that even if his father knew about it, he would not dare to make it public.

"Father, why are you looking at me like that? Did you suddenly realize how handsome your son is?"

Tang Mo, who had no scruples and no shame, felt very comfortable. "It's good for father to look at me more. Even if my son is not as handsome as my elder brother, he is more charming than me."

"After that, whenever my father and my eldest brother were eating, I would think of my eldest brother lying on the bed, vomiting and defecating. It was so festive that I would eat two more bowls of rice."

"Shut up, asshole!"

Tang Gang was furious. Tang Mo now had no respect for him at all. His words stunk worse than shit. He looked around and took a few steps to take out a scroll from the painting jar in the corner and was about to hit Tang Mo. "You bastard are getting more and more lawless. Kneel down."

Tang Mo would not let him beat him, so he stood up and ran away, and even stood at the door to provoke him, "Father, you are old."

"Stop, you evil creature."

Tang Mo was running in front, and Tang Gang was chasing behind. They were out of breath after just a few steps. Tang Mo stood in the distance with a smile on his face, "Father, you should cultivate your character when you are old. It is not good to be so irritable. What's more, your son is telling the truth. Why should he be beaten for telling the truth? Father is too partial."

"Get over here."

Tang Gangqing had a dark face and put one hand on his waist. Tang Mo smiled and said, "I'm not a fool. Father, do you want to beat me? If not, I will go back to change my clothes. I have to go out for a drink in the evening."

Tang Gang felt like he had a mouthful of blood that he couldn't spit out or swallow. He couldn't scold him, and he couldn't hit him either. This evil creature was here to collect debts.

Wang came slowly towards him, and Tang Gang subconsciously straightened his back, "Look at this bastard, he's getting more dishonest."

"He has been like this since he was a child. My Lord, you will like him after taking a few more glances at him."

The Wang family has now begun to openly favor Tang Mo. Anyway, no matter how well he does, his reputation will be ruined. Why bother doing such a thankless task?

Tang Mo patted the dust off his body and said, "If father is okay, I will leave first."

That look really deserves a beating.

Tang Gang was about to lose his temper, but Wang spoke first and said to Tang Mo, "Your grandmother has been talking about you for a few times. Go and pay your respects first."

"understood."

As soon as Tang Mo left, Wang said to Tang Gang, "Today's incident will not be spread outside the mansion. My Lord, please don't vent your anger on my son."

"He did it, and he admitted it."

Tang Gang felt dizzy, and Wang came forward to support him. "Are you planning to make this known to everyone?"

Tang Gang was speechless. If he had not sent the man in black to the Duke of Xiangguo's Mansion, many subsequent events would not have happened. This also made Tang Rong's bad reputation even worse. If he told another person about it, the Marquis' Mansion would really become a joke.

But he was unwilling to give up, "I can't just let it go like this."

"What else do you want?"

Wang asked him, "Tell the eldest brother and let him take revenge? Then the second brother will be dissatisfied and take revenge? Until only one brother is left?"

Tang Gang took a deep breath. His dignity had been shattered. If he didn't do something to make up for it, that bastard Tang Mo would definitely ride on his neck in the future.

But he couldn't ignore what Wang said. Wang added, "Brothers fighting is not a good thing. It should be settled as soon as possible. We are all brothers. We should work together to share the worries of the Marquis and push the Marquisate forward, instead of making trouble for trivial matters."

"My Lord, do you think so?"

Of course Tang Gang wanted this, and he even missed the past when Tang Rong was so glorious. Although Tang Mo was not very consistent, he was very respectful to him and never caused any trouble. Wang was also virtuous, and the family was very harmonious.

It's not as messy as it is now.

Wang helped him back to the study and sat down. "My Lord, don't think that the eldest brother is innocent. He is not innocent. We still need to talk to him about some things so that he can cheer up. He can't just stay at home forever."

"I'll go talk to the second son. He still has to listen to what I say as a mother."

"If the Marquis thinks that what I said is not good, then you can only let the brothers fight behind closed doors in this small piece of land, causing unrest in the family, and then spread it outside the mansion for people to criticize, and finally the emperor will reprimand the Marquis for his poor teaching."

In Tang Gang's eyes, the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion was naturally the most important. Even Tang Rong could not damage the dignity of the Marquis' Mansion. He stood up and took two steps before suddenly stopping. He was so angry that he forgot the most important thing.

At this time, Tang Mo had already arrived at Chunrong Hall. The old lady had said before that she would open the old marquis's armory to choose a suitable self-defense weapon for Tang Mo. She had been thinking about this matter for the past two days. When she saw Tang Mo, she mentioned it, "You will go and choose it in a while. The most important thing for self-defense is to be suitable, not just look at whether it is valuable or not."

Tang Mo smiled and said, "Grandma knows me best. If you hadn't reminded me, I would have really checked the scabbard to see if there was a gem."

"Your grandfather doesn't like those fancy things."

After the two chatted for a while, Tang Mo moved in front of the old lady and lowered his voice, "Grandma, there is something I want to discuss with you."

The old lady waved away the waiter, leaving only the grandparents in the room. Tang Mo then revealed the emperor's intention to the old lady, "The emperor allowed my grandson to follow Liao Zhi, and said that I could also follow him into battle if I had the chance. He also mentioned whether the palace still had contacts with my grandfather's former generals, and said that we should get in touch. I guess the emperor wants to use my grandson to do something."

The old lady was a little surprised. "Have you told your father about this?"

"not yet."

Tang Mo said: "Grandma knows. Father dare not disobey grandfather's wishes. He is too cautious. I want to ask grandma first."

The old lady had no idea what the emperor meant. "Your father followed your grandfather's wishes and looked after the retired veterans, but he never made friends with the generals who held military power. He was afraid of arousing... suspicion."

"The Emperor did not look for your father but for you, and he personally asked you to go. You have to go even if you don't want to. You can't disobey the Emperor's order. But you should still discuss this with your father. This matter concerns the Marquis' Mansion, so you can't be careless."

Tang Mo naturally had to go to Tang Gang to discuss. Although he was not very good at home, he had not made any mistakes in the court over the years, which showed that he still had some ability. "In this case, grandson will go to choose weapons and then go to find father."

"Go."

The old lady gave him the key to the storeroom and reminded him, "Now that you have established a firm foothold in the Northern Army and have won the Emperor's favor, you can no longer act like before. You must be careful with your words and actions and be more steady."

"Got it, grandma."
