Hua Mei was straightforward by nature, and she had been harboring a lot of resentment for a long time.
"Who's her man? Bah!"
"Our lady is clean!"
The evil spirit learned that the other party was indeed the woman he had tried to defile, and recalled how the beast had just pierced his forehead.
Terrified, she cried and begged for mercy.
"Madam, I didn't mean it. I also have a wife and children."
“When the Marquis of Zhenbei came looking for me, he asked me if I was married. I was afraid he had some ulterior motive, so I said no.”
"Later he asked me if I would be willing to do things for him, and after I finished, he would give me a mansion."
“My wife and children have suffered with me for many years. I only agreed to marry the Marquis of Zhenbei because I wanted to give her a better life.”
"But then I regretted it, and I couldn't bring myself to do it."
“I waited at home for an hour before going out, intending to tell you about this matter and let you see the true face of the Marquis of Zhenbei.”
"Unexpectedly, he killed me and gouged out my eyes."
As he spoke, he repeatedly kowtowed to Ye Lanyin, begging for mercy:
"Madam, I know that I am deeply sinful."
“I was bewitched and ruined you. If I hadn’t agreed, he wouldn’t have brought you out.”
"Now that I am dead and a wronged ghost, all I ask for is to see my wife and children one last time."
"Waaaaah..."
I listened to what he said.
Lin Wanwan's anger gradually subsided.
Serves you right!
Good and evil are separated by a single thought; the moment you harbor an evil thought, you invite evil.
This is your retribution!
Ye Lanyin never expected that such a thing would happen back then.
She was truly happy to marry the Marquis of Zhenbei, and it was genuinely her choice.
Countless people were involved in this scheme, and many died tragically for his own benefit.
So, how did the Regent get in?
Her child is the regent's.
She had many doubts, but this person had indeed not defiled her.
When the regent came to visit that day, she noticed that Rui'an's eyes looked exactly like the regent's.
She dared not reveal it at the time, fearing that the regent would notice something.
"Madam, it is noon now. I will go and purchase the talismans to ensure that he will never be reborn!"
Hua Mei handed Lin Wanwan to Ye Lanyin and prepared to turn and leave.
But she was worried about her wife being alone here.
At this moment, the child ghost recovered from its shock and spoke.
"Madam, his soul won't last much longer. I can handle a harmless soul!"
Ye Lanyin nodded.
"Okay, thank you for your help, young lady."
Lin Wanwan silently wrote down the child ghost's kindness in her small notebook.
Later, she wanted to ask the Emperor of Fengdu about her identity and have him lift the Soul-Severing Curse.
Upon hearing this, the evil spirit let out a loud shout.
"Madam, please spare me."
"I haven't seen my wife and children for over ten years. I've finally managed to get out today, please, let me see my wife and children?"
"As long as you help me, I am willing to follow your lead."
[Should we simply follow the lead of others?]
[With your soul scattered and your spirit gone, how can you still follow orders?]
Hey, I'm small but not stupid.
Ye Lanyin agreed.
Hua Mei walked to Ye Lanyin's side.
"Madam, why don't we go with him and meet his wife?"
"Perhaps, it might be helpful to us?"
Ye Lanyin pondered in her heart, "Evil spirits roam the mortal world. If they harbor evil thoughts, they might harm others as well."
Lin Wanwan laughed softly.
Nestled in Ye Lanyin's arms, it rubbed against her, its chubby little face blowing bubbles.
[Go find his wife, he won't be reborn anyway~]
Serves you right!
"Madam, please help me!" the evil spirit pleaded again.
Now that he is a malevolent spirit, it won't be easy for him to see his wife. If he tries to return to his former home from the mass grave, he'll probably be annihilated before he even gets there.
He couldn't; he had to see his wife and children.
As he spoke, he kowtowed again.
Ye Lanyin parted her lips slightly, "I promise you."
He did not defile himself, but that does not mean he is innocent.
But his wife was innocent. She was also a woman, and a daughter, and she knew the importance of her husband and father.
"But whether she comes or not is not up to me."
"Madam Xie, Madam Xie," the evil spirit kowtowed.
“My name is Dashan. I live next to the willow tree in Erlipo. There is a thatched house there, and I raise many poultry outside. There is also a tree in front of the house.”
Erlipo, isn't that right next to the inner city gate?
Ye Lanyin asked Lin Wanwan.
"Honey? Shall we go?"
Lin Wanwan nodded, chewing on the jerky, and said in a childish voice, "Mmm~"
Having obtained the little guy's consent, Ye Lanyin looked at the child ghost.
He noticed that her figure seemed to be slowly changing and exclaimed in alarm, "Girl, you can't stand here! Drag him to the locust tree quickly!"
The child ghost, his face pale, nodded and used his soul power to drag the taller, more robust body of himself towards the locust tree.
The locust tree provides ample shade, making it a favorite spot for evil spirits.
As soon as she left, the invisible yin energy around her quickly dispersed and moved away from her.
"Madam, please go quickly, I... can hold on."
Anyway, her whole life was a mistake. Her parents didn't love her. Before her soul dissipates, she should do one good deed so that her life on earth won't have been in vain.
Lin Wanwan watched as her soul was about to leave her body, and then muttered a few words.
Before long, a golden light entered the child ghost's brow.
She then nestled into Ye Lanyin's arms.
Hua Mei glanced back at the child ghost, and for some reason, she felt as if she had seen the child before.
"Madam, don't you think that child looks familiar?"
