“Can my son be saved?!”
Madam Hua was indeed a loving mother, but anyone could tell how cold she was to Miss Lu. She cared only for her own son, which truly exemplified the saying, “Pity the person who arouses hatred.”
The students looked at her with disdain, thinking how selfish she was.
Daoist Xuan Cheng glanced at Madam Hua indifferently and said, “Your Highness, Second Lady Gu is talented and has her own unique skills. Perhaps she has a way to crack this technique.”
Speaking of Gu Yanfei, Daoist Xuan Cheng looked impressed.
When Han Zhanghe heard Daoist Xuan Cheng sing praises of Second Lady Gu, he couldn’t help but think of all the things he had heard in the Myriad Herb Hall.
When he was in the Myriad Herb Hall, he heard that Third Miss Lu didn’t want to get married, so Second Lady Gu used a talisman to cast a spell on Young Master Hua and ruin this marriage.
At that time, he was filled with righteous indignation and felt that Second Lady Gu was an evil person.
But now, from the truth he had heard and witnessed, Third Miss Lu was clearly forced to marry into the Hua family unknowingly. It was the Hua family that was sinister and vicious. They schemed against Third Miss Lu and wanted to use her life to help the Hua family prosper.
Of course, such a marriage couldn’t be arranged!
In other words, Second Lady Gu’s talisman wasn’t harming people, but saving them!
So, Gu Ce’s daughter was saving someone?!
She was saving an innocent girl.
Han Zhanghe stood rooted to the ground in a daze. The feeling in his heart was indescribable. Even he didn’t know how shocked and ashamed he was.
Father was father, daughter was daughter.
He shouldn’t have been prejudiced against Second Lady Gu because of Gu Ce.
Han Zhanghe’s eyes flickered. He closed his eyes and pursed his lips tightly, breathing deeply and quickly.
1 was wrong!
When he opened his eyes again, he turned to look at Chu Yi.
The sun shone on Chu Yi’s snow-white straight face, spotless. The young master in white was as gentle as jade and asked calmly, “May I ask how the Spiritual Master can be sure that the Hua family used this ‘Soul Nurturing and Fate Changing Technique’?”
Hua Lan’s expression changed slightly again. Despair was written all over his cold, sweat-drenched face. He felt as if his entire body had fallen into a bottomless quagmire and was about to welcome a terrifying calamity.
“It’s not difficult.” Daoist Xuan Cheng didn’t even look at Hua Lan. He said calmly, “The ancestral tablets of those who were cast contain their blood essence.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble the Spiritual Master to verify it.” Chu Yi smiled slightly and said leisurely.
“The Hall of Rebirth has been renovated recently. Those memorial tablets have been temporarily placed in the Gathering Mountain Room.” Daoist Xuan Cheng bowed with a smile. “I’ll order someone to get the memorial tablets now.”
The two Daoists hurried away.
When Madam Hua heard this, her red and swollen eyes burned with hope.
On the contrary, Hua Lan collapsed to the ground like mud, his face pale.
After a while, a few Daoists worked together to push all the memorial tablets of the Hua family over with a cart. Then, everyone compared them to the family tree and chose all the memorial tablets of Hua Xiang, Hua Rong, Hua Yan, and the others, as well as their wives’ rooms. A few imperial guards directly split those memorial tablets open.
As expected, there was blood essence hidden in the tablet.
The evidence was conclusive and irrefutable.
Madam Hua looked at the destroyed tablets and smiled crazily. She muttered to herself, “If the tablets are destroyed, so be it. Then my son can be saved, right?”
“Spiritual Master, my son can be saved, right?”
Madam Hua looked at Daoist Xuan Cheng expectantly, but he didn’t say anything.
Hua Lan closed his eyes tiredly. When he opened them again, even his dark eyes were slightly gray and lifeless.
“Yes, I did cause Hua Xi’s illness.” He gritted his teeth. The line of his chin was tense, and his temperament looked sinister and cold.
He raised his head and shouted at Chu Yi, “But so what?”
“It’s no mistake for a father to kill his son!”
As he spoke, Hua Lan’s eyes lit up again, as if he had obtained a death exemption gold medal. His entire body exuded coldness and madness.
Since ancient times, if the emperor wanted his subjects to die, they had no choice but to die. If the father wanted his son to die, his son had no choice but to die.
Every male who died early was the son of the Hua family’s main branch. Hua Xi was also his biological son.
A father wasn’t guilty of killing his own son.
It was the same for all the laws of the past dynasties.
This was a family matter for the Hua family. Perhaps someone would condemn him morally, but he was innocent. Even the emperor couldn’t punish him.
There was dead silence. At this moment, even the wind seemed to have stopped..
