"Madam, isn't Shu'er the prefect's daughter who died in vain?"
The Left Vice Minister of Rites was puzzled, "What does this have to do with our son?"
"Yeah, what does that have to do with our son?"
The lady at the side looked at the Left Vice Minister of Rites with a guilty look on her face. "The Ministry of Justice also said at the time that it was another man who killed her. That man has already been executed in the autumn. He is in prison and will be executed in a few days."
"Daddy, save me, Shu'er has been following me. Woo woo..." Zhang Wen kept crying.
"Someone, go ask Master Jiutian to come and take a look. My dear son, although he is naughty at times, Wen'er would definitely not do something like killing someone."
The Left Vice Minister of Rites had not yet realized the impending disaster and still looked calm.
The lady beside him also pretended to be calm. She naturally did not believe that Master Jiutian could understand the truth of the matter.
Not long after, Master Jiutian came over. Looking at the man on the bed, he suddenly understood the meaning of the letter from the little princess.
"Sir, your son is haunted by an evil spirit."
Master Jiutian looked at the Left Vice Minister of Rites and said, "Everything has its cause and effect. Evil spirits will remember those who killed them in their lifetime and seek revenge on them. Old Na just saw the haunting female ghost. He said he died unjustly. His father misses her terribly and often cries late into the night for him, drowning his sorrows in alcohol. He's been listless all day."
"Donors, if you really want me to help the dead to be reborn and rest in peace, then I hope you two can tell the truth. Otherwise, your son will die." Master Jiutian said softly.
The Left Vice Minister of Rites looked puzzled. He looked at his wife, who was evasive, and asked, "Madam, was Shu'er killed by Wen'er?"
He only knew that the prefect had accused him at the time, but the Ministry of Justice later said it was someone else during the trial. Since the Ministry of Justice said so, he did not continue to investigate.
But later, the prefect came to his house several times to make trouble, but he sent him back each time. He thought he had gone mad, but he still had doubts about this matter.
"Madam, if you don't tell the truth now, you will have no choice but to watch your son die. There are no outsiders here, so why don't you tell the truth? Did you find a way to bribe the people in the Ministry of Justice?"
When the Left Vice Minister of Rites heard what Master Jiutian said, he understood everything.
The lady's eyes evaded, and she suddenly knelt on the ground. "Master, Wen'er is your own flesh and blood. He was indeed confused about this matter. Master, there are no outsiders here. If Master Jiutian doesn't say it, no one will know. Master Jiutian, since this matter has passed, we can only..."
Master Jiutian sighed deeply, "Madam, people don't just think about life. If they don't atone for their sins, they will go to hell after death. He must face punishment calmly, otherwise, not only will he not survive, but he will also be subjected to multiple judgments in hell. It will be difficult to be reborn. I advise Madam to think carefully."
The lady collapsed on the ground, her face filled with despair. Only tears kept flowing, like a walking corpse.
The Left Vice Minister of Rites stared at his wife, then looked at his son who was trembling in fear on the bed. "Spoiling a child is like killing him. I have been against you spoiling him since he was a child. But you..."
"Forget it, it's too late to say anything now."
After hearing what Master Jiutian said, the Left Vice Minister of Rites immediately understood that this son could not be saved.
The only way to let his son rest in peace and atone for his sins is to bring him to justice.
"Master Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, I am here to take the person away on the orders of the little princess and the emperor."
Outside the door, the guard walked in. After saluting to show respect, he directly took the person on the bed and the one kneeling on the ground.
The lady didn't resist, and even if Zhang Wen wanted to, he had no chance. He had already been frightened by Shu'er, his body limp, as if his soul had been hollowed out.

Master Jiutian returned to Wanwan and handed Shu'er's soul to Wanwan.
"Master Tianshi."
Shu'er bowed respectfully.
"Your mission has been accomplished. I will bring him to justice."
Wanwan said, "I'm going to take you to reincarnate. Do you have any other wishes?"
"I want to...see my father." Shu'er bowed and said, "Is that okay?"
Wanwan sighed with heartache, turned around and put her soul into a piece of talisman paper.
Xia Mochen quickly flew her to the prefect's residence. It was already late at night, and in the prefect's room, he looked at his daughter's memorial tablet and shed tears again. "Shu'er, Daddy has heard good news. The Ministry of Justice is reexamining the case. The man who murdered Shu'er is finally going to stand trial! Shu'er, you can rest in peace now."
Outside the room, Shu'er looked at her father from afar. For so many years, her father had only had her as a daughter and no other children.
His father once gave him all his love, but he could never have expected this.
The son of the Minister of Rites got drunk and took his daughter to his house, raped her, and then took advantage of his drunkenness to strangle her to death.
During this year, he also thought of many ways to bring Zhang Wen to justice.
"Come in!"
Wanwan looked at the spirit and said, "If your father isn't afraid, you can show up. He can see it now. It will take about an incense stick of time."
Shu'er was delighted and quickly floated in. Seeing the father and son reunited, Wanwan was in a very good mood.
Looking at the incredible look in the prefect's eyes, I missed my daughter for so long. I had wanted to dream about her countless times but never had the chance. But this time, she actually appeared.
And, it's so real.
In an instant, the feeling of longing was beyond words.
Wanwan suddenly thought, if she left, would Daddy be like this too? Wanwan suddenly felt so distressed.
Humans and ghosts have different paths, but seeing them meet makes me feel as if everything I have done is worth it.
This is how Wanwan does things, based on her mood.
In the distance, a black figure and a white figure appeared in front of Wanwan.
These damn people from the underworld came at the perfect time. In all these years, have they never come looking for her? Are they here to look for her, or to find something to hold against her?
"Little sister, you've committed a grave offense. How can a human and a ghost meet? You've abused your spiritual power. Aren't you afraid that the underworld and heaven will blame you?"
Bai Wuchang said coldly, his tone was not polite at all.
"Really? How can one abuse spiritual power? What if someone neglects their duties? What is the penalty?"
Wanwan gave the two of them a cold look and said, "You're kidding me. This ghost has been in the human world for a year. Where have you been?"
"You...this is none of your business. We are talking about something you have done that is taboo. We are going to take you to the King of Hell and let him decide your fate." Black and White Impermanence said in unison.
"What's wrong with me letting them meet? What can you do to me?" Wanwan stared at him leisurely, "Do you think I'm still the same weak soul that you could control?"
Wanwan looked at the Black and White Impermanence coldly, and sat leisurely on a chair beside them. "Whether you can catch them back depends on your ability."
Damn it, the chance for revenge has come. This time I’m going to settle the score with the underworld.
