“It’s really you!” Madam Hua said sternly. “You harmed our son!”
Her eyes instantly turned even redder, shooting out a hateful light. She pounced on Hua Lan like an angry mother beast, pounding, scratching, scratching, and biting.
“You crazy woman!” Hua Lan also hated Madam Hua.
If it wasn’t for her, this matter wouldn’t have come to this!
The Hua family’s 300-year-old reputation had been buried in the hands of this shallow-minded woman.
The couple had long forgotten their former relationship as husband and wife. They had almost lost their rationality and pushed and scuffled with each other.
Hua Lan was a man, after all, so he was naturally stronger than Madam Hua. After a while, he roughly pushed Madam Hua to the ground.
At this moment, Hua Lan’s hair had long been messed up by Madam Hua. Half of his hair was disheveled, and there were a few blood-red nail marks on his face. His clothes were also in a mess.
Looking at this couple with terrible morals, Han Zhanghe and the other students didn’t have the slightest sympathy. All of them revealed looks of disdain.
For a noble family like the Hua family, who looked glamorous on the outside, they were actually corrupted deep down. Even their roots were rotten.
“What a good ‘father killing his son’!” Chu Yi clapped his hands gently.
His voice was still like the spring breeze and rain, but every word was filled with coldness. He slowly questioned, “Then, where’s the Third Miss of the Lu family?”
“What about the innocent women who died because they were related to the Hua family?”
His tone was neither light nor heavy, but it carried a thunderous deterrence.
He hit the nail on the head.
Hua Lan’s pupils constricted slightly, and his original fearlessness instantly disappeared. Fear quickly filled his eyes and spread to his limbs and bones.
The wind of martyrdom has been around since ancient times. Those women had never been in Hua Lan’s considerations. At this moment, they were caught off guard by Chu Yi.
He was at a loss for words.
Not to mention those women in the past, Third Miss Lu had yet to marry into the Hua family. The Lu family could completely sue the Hua family for murder.
“Take him down and hand him over to the capital for interrogation.” With Chu Yi’s order, a few imperial guards approached Hua Lan.
Hua Lan shouted at a vicious cycle, “My Madam knows about the marriage. If I’m guilty, she’s an accomplice!”
“She knew that this shady marriage would kill Third Miss Lu, but she still went to the Lu family to propose marriage!”
Hua Lan’s voice became sharper and sharper. His once refined face was no longer as refined as before, only ferocity and distortion remained.
Since he was going to fall into hell, Madam Hua could forget about living well! He was a sinner, and she wasn’t any better!
“Don’t talk about me. I don’t know anything!” Madam Hua refused to admit it. “Your Highness, he even killed his biological son. It’s obvious what kind of character he has…”
After beating each other up, the Hua couple started arguing with each other like a dogfight.
Chu Yi didn’t say that he believed them, nor did he say that he didn’t believe them. He only waved his hand and didn’t want to say anything more to them.
The few imperial guards dragged Hua Lan and his wife away. Chu Yi didn’t need to decide who was right and who was wrong. He could just hand them over to the capital city for interrogation.
When she was dragged away, Madam Hua was still shouting hysterically, “Your Highness, my sons are innocent. They don’t know anything…”
After the couple was dragged away, the surroundings became much quieter.
The branches and leaves of the Bodhi tree above swayed with the wind, making a rustling sound, making the surrounding ten feet feel even quieter.
Han Zhanghe and the other students’ faces turned green, white, and red. They were so ashamed that they couldn’t look Chu Yi in the eye.
In this strange silence, Han Zhanghe took half a step forward and was about to say something when he heard Chu Yi say, “Spiritual Master, the carriage is ready. Please follow me to the Myriad Herb Hall.”
Daoist Xuan Cheng agreed with a warm expression.
They had already agreed to go to the Myriad Herb Hall together, but because of Madam Hua’s appearance, they were delayed a little.
They had roughly sorted out the cause and effect of the entire matter, but he still had to make this trip. Daoist Xuan Cheng pondered in his heart. This matter involves the mystic sect’s spell technique. ItII be more appropriate for me to clarify for Second Lady Gu in public than the Eldest Prince and the officials.
Moreover, these tablets were consecrated by the Hua family to Wuliang Temple. Our Wuliang Temple has only been tainted by this karma and it has to be ended.
Hence, all the students followed, surrounding Chu Yi and Daoist Xuan Cheng as they went down the mountain.
The group of carriages set off majestically for the return journey to the capital. However, the mentality of the students was already different from when they went to Cheng Jing. Along the way, they all passed in silence.. All of them were reflecting and blaming themselves in their hearts…
