Chapter 504: The Arrow is on the String and Must Be Shot
Tang Mo's expression of loyalty finally won the recognition of the Second Prince. Of course, the main point was that the Second Prince was attracted by the Xin family's money, otherwise he would not have asked him whether Xin An knew about this.
Now they are all on the same boat. The Second Prince has no way out, and Tang Mo cannot get off now that he is on the boat. Their fates are linked together for a short period of time.
Now it was time for Tang Mo to show his abilities. He revealed all the evidence he had. When the Second Prince and General Xu learned that the victim had arrived in the capital, they suddenly realized why Tang Mo had come to them at this time.
The arrow is on the string and has to be shot.
The three of them talked for half a day. Then the Second Prince went back to gather his advisers and court officials to discuss the details. They decided to attack the Earl of Pingshun in the morning three days later and involve the Crown Prince. During this period, Tang Mo had to stabilize the victim and let him beat the drum to appeal for justice and sue the Earl of Pingshun in the evening two days later, without giving the Earl of Pingshun time to ask for help.
The second prince walked out of another door, and Tang Mo went to the front yard to pick up Xin An. The couple returned to Qiushi Courtyard as usual. As soon as he entered the door, Tang Mo leaned back in a chair, sweat oozing from his forehead, as if all his strength had suddenly been drained away.
Xin An asked someone to guard the gate and poured Tang Mo a glass of water. The warm water flowed down his throat and seemed to flow through his limbs. Tang Mo let out a long breath, "I'm still not strong enough. I haven't seen any big scenes. Today is really nervous."
"General Xu is so powerful without even getting angry. Today he is testing me again. He has completely restrained his murderous aura. The Second Prince is only one step away from the chair. The aura of a superior is even more oppressive."
Xin An wiped the sweat off his face and said, "It's not like I haven't seen this before. Why are you so nervous?"
"That's different."
Tang Mo said that they were polite to each other before, so naturally they didn't have any feelings towards each other, "It's different today, I'm serious and I'm like two different people."
"I will have to deal with them frequently in the future. Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle."
“It’ll be fine once you get used to it.”
Xin An couldn't help him with this. "But you are one of us now. I won't use my power to overwhelm you when we meet again. We just have to be more careful in the future."
"Well, I'll go to the Liao family later. I'll let Liao Zhi know about this matter. I'll need his help for the rest."
"Go after dinner. You can take a rest first."
After sitting in Xu's house for an entire afternoon, Xin An felt a little uncomfortable in his waist. "I'm going to take a walk and talk to my mother."
Tang Mo nodded, moved to the beauty couch and closed his eyes to rest. Xin An led Rouqiu out of the door, and when he looked up, he saw Wang coming towards him. Today, the couple went to Xu's house. Wang had been uneasy for a long time. Seeing Xin An unconsciously walking a few steps faster, Xin An smiled, "Mother."
"The weather is nice today. I'll accompany my mother to visit the garden."
"Okay."
Wang forced a smile, turned around and walked with Xin An. The maid behind them tactfully stopped and followed them closely after they had walked a distance apart.
"How was your day?"
"all the best."
Xin An smiled and said, "We will start to get busy next."
Wang heaved a sigh of relief. She had finally taken this step. Although it was dangerous, she felt more at ease. "This road is not easy to walk, but it will definitely be passable."
“We have to take a step forward.”
Xin An breathed a sigh of relief. For more than a year, he and his wife had been doing things in a sneaky and secretive manner, and they were cowardly. It was time for them to step out of the shadows into the sunlight and face the challenges head-on.
Yu Yi Niang, who was far away, was also strolling around the garden with Nu'er in her arms. When she saw Wang and Xin'an, she hurried over. After she bowed and greeted them, Nu'er in her arms started to laugh. The baby of this month had already started to be naughty. His black eyes stared at the hairpin on Wang's head. He stretched out his little hand and leaned forward to jump into Wang's arms. Yu Yi Niang hurriedly took a step back, "Nu'er, be good, don't make trouble."
Wang smiled and took Nu'er in her arms. The little guy started babbling non-stop in her arms, tilting his head to touch her hairpin. Xin An found it interesting, "Nu'er is really lively. I heard he can finish a whole steamed egg?"
Aunt Yu smiled and said, "This child has a strong appetite, so he should eat more."
"It's a good thing to be able to eat, don't treat him badly."
Wang held Nuer's little hand and said to Aunt Yu, "It's good that you take good care of the child. Take the child out for a walk more often when the weather is not so hot recently."
"yes."
Aunt Yu brought Nu'er here when she learned that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were in the garden. "Before, it was too hot and unbearable, so we seldom went out. Now that it's cool in the mornings and evenings, I brought him out for a walk. This child is naughty and doesn't behave well in the house. He was very happy when he came out, dancing with joy."
Wang said that the slave was old enough and it was time to buy him some small toys to pass the time. "There are still some in the storeroom. I'll have someone find them and send them to you later. You can also ask the shopping staff to buy some for you and the accountant will pay for them together."
Aunt Yu thanked him quickly and wanted to say something else when Tang Gang arrived.

Tang Gang didn't take Nu'er, his eldest grandson, seriously. Wang held him and teased him. Nu'er was a good boy, with a cute appearance and a cheerful smile, and he wasn't shy about strangers. It was rare that Tang Gang was willing to hold him for a while. Although he didn't give her anything as a reward, this attitude was enough to make Aunt Yu's life a little better. At least she wouldn't be so perfunctory when she asked someone to do something.
After all, there is a difference between legitimate and illegitimate children. After holding Nu'er, Tang Gang asked someone to bring Chunlang over. A dark light flashed in Aunt Yu's eyes, and then she returned to normal. She tactfully held Nu'er and left the garden, not daring to compete for favor with Chunlang.
Tang Gang, who was holding Chun Lang, praised him highly, saying that his full forehead was a sign of good fortune and that his eyes and eyebrows looked very much like Tang Rong. He couldn't let go of him. Xin An took a close look at this child who was named after Tang Mo in the previous life, and wondered about his future destiny.
"What is the second one doing?"
After enjoying his grandson for a long time, Tang Gang finally remembered that he still had a son. Xin An smiled and said, "Rest in the house. I will go out for a drink soon. I won't be eating at home tonight."
"Tell him to stop thinking about food and drink, and not to make friends with just anyone, or he will lose his status."
Wang took over the conversation, "His job involves those people, regardless of status. It doesn't matter if the job is done well or not. It's more important than anything else."
Tang Gang was speechless. He wanted to say something but saw Xin An. Xin An smiled and said that she would go back to see if Tang Mo woke up. After she left, Tang Gang said, "Someone sent a woman into the mansion. You can make the arrangements."
Wang raised her eyebrows, "Is the Marquis going to add a new person?"
"That's right. The concubines are all old and ugly. The Marquis is wronged. It's also my fault that I'm not virtuous enough. I should have thought of it earlier."
Tang Gang frowned, and Wang turned and left, walking very quickly, for fear that Tang Gang would stop her and say that she didn't want the beauty anymore. His son would be busy next, so he had to find something for the old man to do to prevent him from doing anything bad.
