Since even the government officials know about this, it means that the great general who protects the country is standing in salute.
"Old lady, what you did was not right. You chose your own path, so don't regret it."
"Oh, after all this time, it's this old woman who's causing trouble. She disregards family affection and is partial to others. She's afraid of getting her own son into trouble. Not only did she want to split up the family, she even insisted on signing a letter of severance. Now, seeing that nothing's wrong, she wants to come back and live a good life. We can only share wealth but not adversity. It's better not to have a family like this!"
For a moment, everyone was spitting and surrounding Fang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, accusing them of selfishness and hypocrisy.
"Shameless old woman, how dare she repeatedly exploit our sympathy to speak for herself? Black-hearted thing, isn't she afraid of retribution?"
At this time, someone recognized Fang as Tao Jingyu's biological mother.
Know the situation of the second wife's family.
"No wonder the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came to the General's Mansion to make a scene. It's because her own son and grandson were secretly involved in a rebellion, and it was exposed in the court. His Majesty was merciful and spared their lives. I heard that they were sentenced to exile in the northern frontier."
"Treason is a serious crime. They really deserve it. The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law actually have the nerve to come here and make a scene."
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Fang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had no nerve to stay in the face of the crowd's siege and accusations. Sun anxiously pulled Fang's arm and tried hard to rush out of the crowd.
Some people were angry that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were using them to put pressure on the General's Mansion, so they took out vegetable leaves from the bamboo basket they were carrying and threw them at Fang and the others.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who were so sick and weak that they had difficulty walking, were so scared when they saw everyone smashing vegetable leaves at them that they ran away as fast as they could.
When everyone sees how nimble and powerful they run, what is there to not understand?
They were all deceived by the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. What they said about being seriously ill was all lies.
When Tao Yuwei saw Fang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, whose pitiful and weak image they had deliberately disguised was exposed to everyone, the corners of her mouth curled up in a good mood, and she almost laughed out loud with joy.
Fortunately, my father had foresight and asked Liu Tongzhi, who had not yet been imprisoned, to be a witness when signing the personal letter to avoid the risk of being impeached by the imperial censor.
Unexpectedly, this matter did not work in the court, but was used at his doorstep.
For the sake of her family's reputation, she sincerely expressed her gratitude to the onlookers.
"Thank you all for not being blinded by those with ulterior motives and for clearing the name of the Nation Guardian General's Mansion and helping my father clear his name of being unfilial. On behalf of the entire General's Mansion, I would like to thank you all."
Tao Yuwei bowed to everyone and thanked them, winning their applause.
"Princess Anle, please rest assured. If we hear anyone using the reputation of the Great General as an unfilial person, we will not let them off."
The Great General who defends the country is a hero of the Great Zhou. During the battles at the border, he repelled the barbaric northern barbarians several times, making them no longer dare to cross the border at will, plunder the people of the Great Zhou, and steal food and gold and silver.
"Yes, if this matter becomes serious, we will definitely help the general to clear his name and testify for him."
At this time, the crowd had already come to their senses, and they expressed guiltily that they would not allow anyone to discredit Tao Zhihong.
Tao Yuwei and Mrs. Wu expressed their gratitude to them again.
However, these people said that they were almost used by Fang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. A group of angry and busybodies left the gate of the General's Mansion with a group of people and rushed to the residence of Fang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to ask for an explanation.
Seeing that the entrance to her house had finally become quiet, Mrs. Wu relaxed her tense nerves and supported Tao Yuwei as she walked into the house.
"After the fight between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, the reputation of the Second House family is completely ruined."
Tao Yuwei could imagine the chaotic scene of them being chased and scolded, and she was in an extremely good mood.
"Thanks to your timely appearance, I, your mother, almost allowed the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to come in."
Tao Yuwei smiled and raised her little face and said, "Then mother has to make me some more delicious food to reward my stomach."
Mrs. Wu agreed.
During lunch time, Tao Zhihong finally returned home.
The family sat together, and Tao Yuwei picked up the chicken leg and started to eat it, regardless of Wu's obstruction.
"You said you had internal injuries, so why did you eat so much meat and fish?" Mrs. Wu took the bowl of vegetarian porridge brought by the maid and placed it next to Tao Yuwei.
She ate the meat happily without even glancing at the tasteless vegetarian porridge.
Tao Zhihong had already learned from outside about several major things that Tao Yuwei had done.
His daughter is always there wherever there is trouble.
"I heard that you were almost killed in the palace for protecting an old eunuch?"
When Tao Zhihong asked about this, he was not very angry, but he glared at Tao Yuwei fiercely.
After finishing the chicken leg in front of her, she swiftly reached for the fish on the plate. Tao Zhihong made a lightning-fast move, his chopsticks firmly clamped onto hers, and said without question, "What's going on? You can't eat unless you explain clearly!"
Tao Yuwei threw down her chopsticks and briefly recounted what she had encountered in the palace.
After hearing this, Tao Zhihong and Wu took a deep breath in worry.
I didn't expect that Concubine Huo was so bold as to ignore the imperial power.
He committed murder right under your Majesty's nose and wanted to silence people with impunity.
"Noble Concubine Huo has already regarded you as a thorn in her side. Don't go to His Majesty's Thousand Autumn Banquet tomorrow."
Tao Zhihong made the same request as Wu.
[I also want to see how His Majesty will deal with Concubine Huo. I must watch this excitement.]
"I will personally hand over the birthday gift I have prepared to Uncle Emperor."
She firmly stated that she would never obey the arrangement.
Tao Zhihong shook his head helplessly, "It's up to you, but when you enter the palace tomorrow, don't cause any more trouble."
"Just listen to Dad." Tao Yuwei nodded happily, picked up the chopsticks again, quickly picked up a large piece of fish, lowered her head and started eating.
Seeing that her husband seemed strict but actually doted on their daughter, she was so angry that she glared at Tao Zhihong fiercely.
"Just spoil her. She almost lost her life this time. If she causes trouble again, let's see how it ends."
Seeing his wife throw down her chopsticks and stand up to leave with an angry look on her face, Tao Zhihong quickly grabbed her hand and changed the subject, "I've received a message. Zipeng has already rushed from the border to the capital."
When her husband mentioned the news about their eldest son, Mrs. Wu wanted to hear when her son would come back. Her angry expression improved a lot and she sat down again.
Seeing his wife's mood had calmed down, Tao Zhihong quickly said, "If Zipeng is fast, he might be able to come back tomorrow."
"When he comes back, take this opportunity to find him a wife. Someone his age will already have grown up children."
When talking about his son's age, Tao Zhihong was also very anxious.
"Brother, when you come back, be sure to be careful of that niece of the Sun family. Don't underestimate that woman because she comes from a humble family. She's quite cunning. If you run into her, you'll be in big trouble."
