Fang Zhong also knew that the second son Fang Yiai had caused a terrible disaster, so he did not say anything good to Fang Yiai, but instead clasped his fists and bowed.

"Master, I will go right away."

Before Fang Zhong turned around and left, a servant wrapped tightly in clothes ran into the hall. He was panting and sweating profusely.

The attendant saw Fang Xuanling also sitting in the hall, so he respectfully clasped his fists and reported.

"Master, the second young master went to Princess Gaoyang's mansion."

When he heard about Princess Gaoyang's spoiled and overbearing daughter-in-law, Fang Xuanling's old face was filled with anger.

This princess' daughter-in-law is not at all worrying. Not only did she have an affair with a monk in secret, but now she is instructing her son to do things that violate Tang law.

When His Majesty issued an order for Fang Yiai to marry Princess Gaoyang, he should have done his best to dissuade this marriage instead of letting his son jump into the fire pit.

Fang Xuanling said directly to Fang Zhong: "Go to the princess's residence in person and bring that rebellious son back!"

"As ordered!"

Fang Zhong responded and then quickly walked out of the lobby.

Then Fang Xuanling personally went to the storehouse to take out 50 taels of silver ingots and packed them in several exquisite boxes. He then gave instructions to his attendants.

"Take this money to Princess Chengyang's mansion and hand it over to Prince Consort Du!"

The servants, carrying heavy boxes, responded respectfully.

"As ordered!"

As they put the silver on the carriage and drove away, they were all grumbling in their hearts.

In the past, other officials would find ways to give money to the master in order to ask him to do things for them, or in order to please him.

Recently, the master actually wanted to give silver to Prince Consort Du. This was the first time they had encountered such a thing after serving as servants for so long.

...

Princess Gaoyang's Mansion.

In the hall with the door closed, there were only Princess Gaoyang and Fang Yiai.

Princess Gaoyang gritted her teeth and looked furious at this time, while Fang Yiai lowered his head and looked extremely ugly.

If you look closely, you can see that Fang Yiai's back is still shaking slightly.

Princess Gaoyang said tenderly, "Fang Yiai, you can't even do a small thing well. You are such a complete loser!"

"I saw you look so confident a few days ago, and I thought you were very capable. I didn't expect you to make such a big deal out of it now!"

"If Du He reports this to our father, both you and I will be punished!"

Although Gao Yang is a spoiled princess, it does not mean that she is a fool. On the contrary, she is much smarter than ordinary princesses.

Originally, she just wanted Fang Yiai to send someone to deal with the two lowly servants, but she didn't expect that Du He was also in the carriage and was almost stabbed.

Now that the matter has become a hot topic, if the emperor holds her accountable, she will probably not be able to stay out of it.

Fang Yiai's mouth trembled as he said, "Gao Yang, what do you think we should do now?"

"Do you need me to kill Fang Wu and completely eliminate the trouble?"

He is currently serving as the Minister of the Imperial Guards, and he will soon be tasked with producing 10 sets of armor for the King of Wei. If he is demoted for this reason, it will definitely affect the overall situation.

In addition to the 3 strings of cash given by the King of Wei, he privately took 1 strings of cash and used nearly 2500 strings of cash.

If he was demoted because of this, he would have to pay out the money again.

"Haha!" Princess Gaoyang sneered twice. She glanced at Fang Yiai with disdain and said, "Killing Fang Wu can only shut up the Chang'an County government, but can it shut up Du He, the Crown Prince, and my father?"

"I don't know how you can handle things. You're dealing with two lowly servants, but you even involve Du He!"

When Princess Gaoyang entrusted Fang Yiai to do this, she had a bad feeling in her heart, but she didn't expect the result to be just as she expected.

If she had known that Fang Yiai was such a loser that he could not be trusted, she should have sent someone to do it herself.

Fang Yiai frowned and said, "Gao Yang, what's the point of you saying these sarcastic words now?"

"I'm doing this for you. If this gets out of hand, it'll be hard for both of us!"

After hearing Fang Yiai's desperate words, Princess Gaoyang's face immediately darkened.

Just when the atmosphere became extremely solemn, Taozi's soft voice came from outside the door.

"Your Highness, Prince Consort Fang, the steward of the Duke of Liang's residence, Fang Zhong, is here. He wants you to go back to the Duke of Liang's residence now."

"Butler Fang came with the token of Duke Liang. He said that Prince Consort Fang must go back with him now no matter what!"

In the lobby.

After Fang Yiai and Princess Gaoyang heard Taozi's words, they looked at each other in surprise.

The Duke of Liang sent someone over at this critical moment, and it was the old steward Fang Zhong who came in person, which must be because of this terrible event.

Princess Gaoyang glanced at Fang Yiai, whose face was pale, then frowned and spoke in a deep voice.

"Fang Yiai, since your father sent someone here, it must be to help you clean up the mess."

"Your father is a shrewd man, he might have a way to break the impasse, you should go back now and take care of this matter!"

"Although you didn't punish those two servants, you did send a lot of people to take action. This princess will consider you to have completed the task."

She is the person who least wants to make a big deal out of this matter now. She only hopes that the old fox Duke Liang can make this matter smaller.

As for sending more people to deal with those two lowly servants, Princess Gaoyang didn't even dare to think about it.

Now that the enemy has been alerted, if I continue to act on my own will, I will probably suffer crazy revenge from Du He.

That madman Du He even dared to deal with his own family members and openly go against the King of Wei. He would definitely not give face to me, the princess.

Fang Yiai lowered his head and thought for a moment, then nodded slightly and said.

"Row!"

Having said that, he turned and walked towards the gate.

Although he couldn't stand his father's behavior of controlling everything about him, in the current critical situation, only his father could help him solve it.

Outside the door, Taozi, who was waiting anxiously, was about to continue urging, when the tightly closed door slowly opened.

Seeing Fang Yiai walking out with a stern face, Taozi hurriedly went up to him and whispered.

"Prince Consort Fang, the housekeeper is outside the gate of the Princess's Mansion."

Fang Yiai nodded slightly, then walked out with big strides with a nervous mood.

Half a quarter of an hour later.

Fang Yiai was sent back to Duke Liang's Mansion, and under the instructions of the servants, he went directly to his father's study.

Just as Fang Yiai walked into the study, he was hit in the face by a stick as thick as a wrist.

"Oh!"

A stick hit Fang Yiai's arm, and Fang Yiai grimaced in pain.

"Suck~"

Before Fang Yiai could dodge, the stick kept hitting him, and each hit was with full force.

In the past, his father would curse at him when he dealt with him, but today his father had a cold face the whole time and his expression looked extremely serious.

Fang Yiai did not dare to say anything nonsense, but gritted his teeth and endured it silently.
