By reading my mind, I defeated the crazy regent

Once she thought about leaving, she couldn't wait.

After more than an hour, most of the people stayed at home, including Uncle Jiang, because he had to take care of everything at home and in the shop.

The wet nurse, the coachman, the miracle doctor, the lame uncle, the fat aunt and several uncles left with Tang Qiansui.

About ten of them went down the secret passage and protected Tang Qiansui in the middle, with the wet nurse holding Tang Qiansui tightly all the way.

This secret passage was dark and long. In order to keep it secret, they dared not walk too heavily or light oil lamps. They could only use the faint light of the tinder to guide the way.

Tang Qiansui had never realized how big the capital city was until she walked through the secret passage today.

It took them nearly an hour to finally get out of this winding secret passage.

After walking in such a place for so long, Tang Qiansui felt a little scared.

Even though she was surrounded by people protecting her, she still couldn't help but feel nervous, fearing that someone would suddenly appear or make some noise.

Uncle Lame was always at the front. When he saw the light in front, he immediately extinguished the fire.

Tonight there are only bright stars. When the group came out of the secret passage, they saw a lush forest and hillside.

“They actually dug the entrance here.”

Tang Qiansui couldn't help but mutter.

What on earth did the Tang family do? What was their purpose in digging this up?

"Miss, we have already left the inner and outer cities of the capital, but we are still within the capital's territory. We still need to walk for two hours to be completely out of the capital."

Uncle Lame whispered, "We have horses up ahead. Miss, please be patient and ride first. We need to hurry on our way now, so it's not convenient to take a carriage."

Tang Qiansui had no reaction.

Uncle Lame then remembered that if he spoke too softly, the young lady would not be able to hear him, but he definitely could not shout loudly outside.

"Just tell Miss before you go out. I'm not sure if Miss can handle being ridden."

Tang Qiansui was brought to the front of the horse. Uncle Lame looked apologetic, but that couldn't be seen under the moonlight.

She got on the horse without saying a word.

"Uncle Lame's arrangements are very good. This is how we should hurry up. Let's go quickly so that we don't have any more troubles."

The lame man sighed in his heart, but without saying anything more, he got on the horse directly.

The wet nurse looked weak, but she could actually ride a horse, which surprised Tang Qiansui.

"How come the nurse can ride a horse?"

The nanny knew that the young lady wouldn't be able to hear her even if she spoke softly, so she simply pinched her hand.

"When I was young, I traveled all over the country with my lady, so riding a horse was easy for me."

If she could be exposed, Tang Qiansui would have wanted to yell 666 to her wet nurse.

I am really awesome, and everyone around me is talented and capable.

The group traveled quickly under the cover of night and had completely left the capital before dawn.

Even if Yin Tingyan discovered him at this moment and wanted to chase him, he would not be able to catch up.

When the sun rose the next day, the capital was still prosperous, as if nothing had changed.

But the head of the Tang family received a letter. When he opened it, he was very angry.

He slammed the letter on the table. "You bastard, you're such a disgrace! How could such a shameless person come out of my Tang family?"

Seeing this, the clan leader's son advised, "Dad, don't be angry. Take care of yourself. What's wrong? What's in the letter?"

The clan leader threw the letter to his son and said, "Read it yourself. Come, tell me to invite all the elders."

The servant hurried over to pass on the message.

The patriarch's son was also very angry after seeing it.

"How could Big Brother be so shameless? How could he not understand the good intentions of Dad and the elders?"

"We drove him away not to make him homeless, but to make him learn his lesson and mend his ways. But he actually sneaked back home to enjoy his life."

"Aren't you just turning a deaf ear to what Dad and the elders said?"

The clan leader is the most powerful person in the family. Of course, if someone becomes a high-ranking official, the clan leader cannot control too much.

But the patriarch still has the greatest say and power of execution in the family.

Tang Qishan's actions were a complete challenge to the patriarch's authority.

I drove you away, but you pretended to obey me but secretly ran back to enjoy yourself.

Who are you taking lightly?

The elders came very quickly, and none of them looked very energetic. Some even came with eye boogers, obviously having just woken up.

"What happened, Chief, that called us in such a hurry?"

The clan leader took advantage of the situation and said, "I asked you to come and discuss with me how to deal with Tang Qishan."

The elders were all confused: "Another punishment? What did Tang Qishan do again?"

Wasn't he just driven away a while ago? He's just short of being removed from the family tree. What else is to be done with him?

The patriarch pointed to the letter in his son's hand and said, "Give it to your uncles to see."

The letter quickly circulated among the elders of the clan.

The expressions of the elders who had seen this were numb: "Can't Tang Qishan live without causing trouble every day? Can't he just calm down a little?"

Another elder said angrily, "Don't say that! Yesterday, Old Six and I went to the Regent's Palace and met Tang Qishan. What he said was absolutely unpleasant."

"He's not very well-mannered. He's an old man, I never thought you could say he's uneducated."

"Don't talk about useless things, just tell me how to deal with this matter." The patriarch said angrily.

"This must be severely punished. This is a blatant challenge to our authority and an open opposition to us."

"He thought he had done it perfectly, but in fact, he was discovered by Qiansui's people. He even dared to use the secret passage left by the elders to do this. It's really not enough for him to brag."

The clan leader asked, "Severe punishment? How severe a punishment? Completely remove him from the Tang family tree?"

"It's best to do this, so he doesn't become so arrogant all day long. Qiansui doesn't even want to go home because of him."

Everyone agreed to remove Tang Qishan from the family.

The patriarch tapped the table, and when the silence settled, he said, "Do you think I don't want to remove him from the family?"

"But have you ever thought about this? Once he is removed from the family, Qiansui will really be the only one left in the family line. Without the support of the elders, can Qiansui survive?"

The patriarch is more concerned about Tang Qiansui, and everything must be considered for Tang Qiansui.

Otherwise, this child has no elders around and doesn’t know anything. What if he gets bullied?

They are still alive now and can protect Qiansui. No one in the family dares to bully Qiansui. But if they die, there will be no men in this branch, and that will be dangerous for Qiansui.

The elders also fell silent.

"It's better to remove her from the list. If you don't, Tang Qishan will use Qiansui even more and hurt her."

"There are always good ones among the young people in our Tang family. Wouldn't it be nice to teach them well and let them protect Qiansui?"
