Tao Zhihong lay down with peace of mind, and confessed to Mrs. Wu that he could also hear his daughter's thoughts.
After hearing this, Wu was so angry that she hit him lightly on the chest several times.
"Okay, if I don't tell you, will you keep it a secret?"
Tao Zhihong didn't dare to make his wife angry, so he begged for mercy repeatedly, and only then did Mrs. Wu stop being angry with him.
After discussing it, the two decided to keep it a secret from Tao Yuwei.
As for the second wife's family's plan, the couple already knew it.
Early the next morning, the eldest family of three just sat down to eat.
Fang sent her personal nanny to call Tao Zhihong informing him that he was seriously ill.
Tao Zhihong behaved very filially in front of the nanny and asked eagerly about the old lady's condition.
Tao Yuwei looked at it and shook her head.
[Dad, please be more careful. It's your foolish filial piety that has harmed you...]
After hearing this, Tao Zhihong and Wu looked at each other in silence.
How could he be foolishly filial?
Back in the northern border, he was young and his father died in the war. His stepmother and his younger brother often exploited him, making him do dirty and tiring work and not allowing him to eat.
Once, he was sick and about to die. It was freezing and snowy outside. His stepmother would rather he die than hire a doctor to treat him.
Later, an old soldier who got along well with my father came to visit our home and found that he was seriously ill. He paid money to bring a doctor to save his life.
Over the years, he has done his best for his second brother and that woman.

Daddy went to great lengths to arrange for him to serve in the palace, and what did he get in return? He colluded with outsiders to harm the eldest wife's family.
[Dad is a famous god of war, but he can't stop the framing of his relatives. The cousin obeys the male protagonist's arrangements, takes advantage of Dad's trust, and uses Dad's connections to recruit soldiers and manufacture weapons for the male protagonist.]
The Emperor's men noticed something was amiss, and my cousin ran to Daddy to complain, saying he had misjudged people and had been tricked into doing something he shouldn't have done. He begged Daddy to clean up his mess, and Daddy helped to clean up the mess.
[This aroused the Emperor's suspicion. The other party did not give my father a chance to defend himself. He despised my father's achievements and sentenced him to be torn into pieces by five horses for the crime of attempting treason.]
