C5 (1/2)
Ever since his return that day, the imperial government had sealed off the surroundings of the Mirror Lake. The monsters of the Mirror Lake were spread among the people of the capital in multiple versions.
Have you heard? There was a water monster on the Mirror Lake!
I've seen it before. It was, hey, taller than the tower, with eyes like a pair of lanterns.
To say that there were evil officials and villains in the court, was that a god sent down by the heavens?
That water monster didn't come down from the sky. It came out from the ground.
You said that we wouldn't suffer a disaster, but the water monster came out once every three hundred years, and when it came out, it had to eat five hundred children at once.
Sigh!
Ah, I have to pick up my son from the private school.
We brothers will go drink two cups.
Let's go!
This matter took a long time before the Prime Minister managed to catch his breath. After that day, the Mrs. Gu became ill with no medicine nor medicine, and it took a whole summer before she could recover.
Both Gu Sikong and Gu Yinfeng were slightly injured and nothing serious had happened to them, but Gu Changge was not injured, but was treated as a first-rate patient by his family to be protected.
Ever since Gu Yinfeng told his story to his father, Gu Sikong started to reflect on his daughter's abnormal behavior.
If one were to say that his son had lied to him, that was impossible, because he had personally seen the Corpse Devil.
This girl was easily frightened when she was young, when she grew up she often said that she saw something that others couldn't see, if she said that no one believed her, then she would leave it at that, and now that such a thing had happened, it was impossible for Gu Sikong to not think about it for his daughter.
He had invited Supervisor Qin Tian to come home and drink tea in person, and Supervisor Qin Tian was still ridiculing him. Didn't Prime Minister Gu always object to the Emperor overhearing this old man's slanderous words? Why did you have the interest to invite this old man over for tea today?
Being able to observe the stars at night could also be considered a blessing in disguise. From the empress dowager to the maids in the palace, they all liked to find him for a divination, to avert danger and avoid disaster.
Earlier, when the palace had a pandemic, the imperial physician was helpless to do anything about it. However, he had grabbed a palace maid in one go and ordered people to burn the palace maid to death. The next day, everyone's disease had miraculously healed.
To tell you the truth, I've invited you to come here so that you can see my daughter …
The old man was stroking his grizzled beard, his smile unchanging. ”Do you want me to tell you the truth or a lie?”
But it doesn't matter.
The white-bearded old man walked around the hall and said, ”This daughter of mine probably won't be able to stay in the mansion.”
Gu Sikong's expression changed, even if she hated him for not being able to win, he still had this one daughter, the only parent in the world, who wouldn't hold her in their hands and be afraid of losing her?
Why did my daughter say that when you've never seen her?
When I was at the palace, I knew that you had a daughter in your family who had an extremely murderous aura. It wasn't a big deal when you were young, but as you grew older, you might attract some unnecessary things, such as the calamity in the spring.
The nightmare brought by the Corpse Devil was still fresh in his mind, and the Immortal Lord his son mentioned seemed to have said that Zhang Ge had an evil aura around him. Gu Sikong was startled: ”My daughter has been raised in a deep room since she was young, how could she have an evil aura around her?”
This baleful aura belongs to the innate realm and has nothing to do with your daughter. Although I don't know how to dispel this baleful aura due to my shallow cultivation experience, I have a way to give the prime minister a try!
Please speak!
Firstly, she could ensure her safety. Secondly, the Immortal Mountain Blessed Land would definitely be able to eliminate the baleful aura on her body. If her talent allowed her to understand the secrets of heaven, then she could be considered a great achievement.
Absolutely not! Gu Sikong almost blurted out.
