Reborn and married to uncle, husband and wife teamed up to abuse scum.

On the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, Wang Shi officially got engaged to Yan Yunxiang, and the two families agreed to hold the wedding next year, which made everyone happy.

On the twenty-ninth day, the Marquis's Mansion held a reunion banquet. All the families of the Tang, Xin, Wang, etc. attended with their children. The whole day was lively and joyful, with laughter and joy all the time. Even Tang Gang's face showed more joy and he looked a little friendlier.

The old lady even gave big red envelopes to each child, and expressed her great love for Xin An in front of everyone, giving Xin An enough face.

New Year's Eve was even busier. Tang Gang did not need to go to the palace this year, which saved him a lot of trouble. However, there were many people visiting him and he had to come out to receive them. By the afternoon, there were almost no guests left. Wang was busy preparing for the ancestor worship, which was also a big event for her son and she was not at all careless.

On the first day of the new year, Tang Yu and Tang Yong came again with their family. Today the Marquis' Mansion opened the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors. As the descendants of the Tang family, they all had to be present. The Marquis' Mansion naturally had to prepare meals, and it was another lively day.

When Xin An returned to her parents' home on the second day of the Chinese New Year, the Xin family was worried that it would be dangerous for her to go out with a big belly, so they simply went to the Marquis' Mansion, where the whole family sat together talking and laughing, and considered it a reunion.

Tang Mo personally sent Wang back to the Wang family, and then rushed back to greet the Xin family. He was also pulled by Xin Shan to draw cards, but he didn't let him. In the end, he won ten taels of silver from him and laughed out loud.

For Xin An, this year's New Year was more relaxed than any other year. As a pregnant woman, she didn't have to take care of anything or go out. Everyone was considerate of her and made her live a very comfortable life.

After the Lantern Festival, Tang Gang recovered from his illness. The Minister of Works took the initiative to visit him and said that the Ministry of Works had some old drawings that were in disarray. Now that various places wanted to refer to them, they wanted to ask Tang Gang to take on this task. "You don't need to trouble the Marquis to sort them out personally. You just need to keep an eye on the people below."

I thought Tang Gang would look down on such a job, but who would have thought that he would gladly accept it even though he was almost moldy lying on the bed. He officially started to work in the Ministry of Works every day. He was very energetic, and the father and son would occasionally talk to each other when they met, and the atmosphere in the whole mansion became better.

Tang Mo came back and said that the job was suitable for him. He didn't need to use his brain. He just went to have tea, chat with colleagues, and then look at the blueprints every day. "It's not tiring and it's interesting. It's much better than the time I stayed in the mansion full of resentment."

"He said he joined a teahouse, played chess, painted, drank tea, and fished with a group of people with idle jobs. I think that's pretty good."

No one knew what Tang Gang was thinking, but his current state was exactly what everyone wanted, and they were all happy to coax him. Xin An even specially sent him some tea and asked him to take it to the Ministry of Works to drink.

I thought the comfortable days would last forever, at least until Xin An gave birth, but just half a month after the beginning of spring, news suddenly came that Tang Rong was missing!

"The manager on the river asked him and a few other people to transport wood and burn stones. He had a stomachache and went to relieve himself, and then he disappeared. The people on the river had been looking for him for two days, but they couldn't find any way, so they reported it."

"When he went there, it was already frozen and there wasn't much work. In the spring, there is more work. It is very likely that he ran away because he couldn't stand it."

When Tang Mo learned about this, he went to ask Luo Qi about it. Luo Qi said that it was not his arrangement, so Tang Mo suspected that Tang Rong had run away.

He was furious. It was a serious crime for a soldier to escape. What worried him most was that he would take the opportunity to sneak back. What would happen if he sneaked into the mansion?

"Mother has gone to my uncle's house. When she comes back, tell her that the guards in the mansion must not be lax and that no one is allowed to enter without permission. I will go to find my father now and apologize to the palace first. I will also have someone else go out to look for him. No matter what, we must find him."

Tang Mo left in a hurry. At this time, Tang Gang was still drinking tea leisurely in the Ministry of Industry. He didn't show any special expression when he saw Tang Mo. He didn't raise his eyes until Tang Mo stopped in front of him.

"Is something wrong?"

Tang Mo frowned, "Your good son ran away. Has he come to look for you?"

Tang Gang......

"say clearly."

Tang Mo poured himself a cup of wine irritably and then told him everything. "The first person to get the news was Zhou Zheng. I guess the emperor doesn't know about this yet. Let's go to the palace together and make a clear statement in front of the emperor, and then do our best to find him."

Tang Gang also knew that the matter was of great importance, so he stood up and walked out. When the emperor heard Tang Mo's statement, he snorted. The father and son dared not breathe. Before Tang Gang could explain, Zhou Zheng came and talked about Tang Rong's matter, but he knew more than Tang Mo. "According to the news just reported, more than 20 people in service have disappeared for no reason recently. These people have not returned home, and no one has found their whereabouts. It is not yet clear whether they fled on purpose or encountered other things."

"I have ordered people to conduct a thorough investigation and get to the bottom of this as soon as possible."

Tang Mo cupped his hands and said, "I am willing to go there quickly to investigate this matter. If my brother deliberately escaped, I will not tolerate it. If there is another hidden story, I will investigate this matter thoroughly. I beg the emperor for permission."

Tang Gang's lips moved, and finally he bowed, "Please allow me, Your Majesty."

The emperor nodded and told Tang Mo to set off immediately after making arrangements for the Beiya Army and to do his best to get to the bottom of the matter.

Whether it is a collective defection or secret activities, the emperor will not tolerate it.

Several people hurried out of the palace. Tang Mo originally wanted to negotiate with Zhou Zheng. After all, it was someone else's job. But just as he opened his mouth, someone hurried forward. It turned out that in addition to the people serving in dredging the river, people in other places had also been inexplicably missing recently. Zhou Zheng did not have time to explain to Tang Mo in detail, but just asked him to go and meet up with the people in the government office as soon as possible.

Seeing Zhou Zheng leaving quickly, the father and son looked at each other and saw relief in each other's eyes. If they were kidnapped, the Marquis' Mansion would naturally be innocent.

"My son will go back to Beiya Army to make arrangements. Please go back home first, father, and ask Xin An to help me pack my luggage."

"Besides, everything about this trip is unknown, so father, please arrange some manpower for me."

This time Tang Gang was not reluctant. If Tang Rong had an accident, Tang Mo would be his only son. If anything happened again, he would be given to others. He absolutely could not accept this.

As for Aunt Luo, everyone who has seen her said that she looked like a girl. Besides, he didn't have the energy to wait another twenty years.

The father and son acted separately, and Xin An soon got the news. He quickly remembered a vague thing in his mind, which was that the imperial court had acquired a large mine and many people died in the mine. There were no more details. He didn't pay attention to it at the time, so naturally he had no memory of it.

"I don't want to bring any brocade clothes. I made two sets of blue cloth clothes before. Find them. They are resistant to dirt and wear. They are just right."

"Bring two pairs of leather boots, all kinds of medicine for injuries, the gloves I made last time, and a face towel..."

Lai Lai looked at the things being packed out one by one, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. Chun Yang said, "Why are you standing there? Are you waiting for someone to help you pack? Hurry up and load the car. When the prince comes back to discuss it, you can take your people and set off first. You must be careful and cautious when serving the prince. Don't think you can be careless when you are away from home."

"Here, hold it. There's medicine in here. Take your portion."

Lai Lai didn't know whether to cry or refute, and even brought him medicine for his injuries.
