He did have a son, but that child was unlucky. His mother died when he was just born.
And his mother was Minister Gu's favorite concubine.
When Minister Gu saw that his concubine died of childbirth complications, he was heartbroken and blamed everything on the child, so he hated his son.
Three days after the child was born, a Taoist priest came to the door and said that the child was born on an unlucky day and year and was the reincarnation of an unlucky star. He would bring misfortune to his relatives, friends and parents. If he lived in the Shangshu Mansion, everyone in the mansion would be killed by him.
So the minister's wife suggested sending the child to the farm, and Minister Gu agreed.
Now five years have passed, and Minister Gu still doesn't know whether the child is alive or dead. After all, he has never cared.
"I don't need to tell the Minister what I do. Anyway, that son is dispensable to you, so I would like to ask you to write a letter of severance. From now on, you will have nothing to do with that child." Ye Xingchen explained.
Minister Gu frowned, he didn't like that disaster star in the first place, if he could use him to save Bei Mo, Minister Gu would be more than happy to do so.
"Okay, as long as you can save Beimo, I will promise you." Minister Gu said.
"Master Shangshu is straightforward. Lead the way."
Ye Xingchen followed Minister Gu inside. When the minister's wife saw Ye Xingchen coming, she was very excited: "Miss Ye, please save my son. As long as you can wake my son up, I will do anything for you."
Ye Xingchen glanced at the Shangshu's wife with a somewhat cold expression, then looked at Gu Beimo, and then his expression became solemn.
"Did Mr. Gu fall from a height?"
"How do you know?" Minister Gu was surprised.
After all, as soon as Gu Beimo got into trouble, the imperial physician was at the scene and sent someone to deliver it. The news should not have spread yet, so Ye Xingchen could not have heard about it.
"Miss Ye, you are right. My son did fall off the altar." The Shangshu's wife was extremely surprised.
It seems that Miss Ye is really capable, and her needle hits the mark.
"The sacrificial altar, no wonder, he is not really ill, but is haunted by evil spirits. Although the altar is for praying for blessings, many people have died there, and there are many resentful spirits and evil spirits. Mr. Gu's body was already weak due to staying up late for a long time, and he happened to go to the altar, so he was haunted." Ye Xingchen explained.
The Shangshu's wife was shocked: "Bei Mo has been staying up late for a long time, what's going on?"
The servant immediately said, "Madam, the young master likes Miss Nangong. Isn't it Miss Nangong's birthday coming soon? The young master wants to carve something for Miss Nangong himself, so he did stay up late."
"It's actually because of Nangong Wei. She is a jinx. She made my son's health worse. How hateful." The Shangshu's wife said angrily.
"Miss Ye, can you save my son?" asked Minister Gu.
"Okay." Ye Xingchen immediately opened the third eye for Minister Gu and his wife.
When the two men saw Gu Beimo, they were immediately frightened.
"Then, what are those?" The Shangshu's wife turned pale with fright.
"They are the vengeful spirits and evil ghosts haunting Mr. Gu. Seeing is believing. This way you two won't think I'm a liar." Ye Xingchen said, and immediately took out the Heavenly Thunder Talisman.
"Leave immediately, or else don't blame me for being rude!"
The voice was cold and stern, majestic and domineering.
Of course, vengeful spirits and evil ghosts are unwilling to do that. After a lot of effort, they finally get hold of a person. As long as the 49th day passes, they will be able to take over the body.
The vengeful spirits flew around: "How dare you, a mere human like you, threaten us?"
The evil ghost opened his bloody mouth towards Ye Xingchen and said, "Little girl, if you leave now, we can let you go. If you meddle in other people's business, I will eat you first!"
"You are so stubborn! Break the Heavenly Thunder Talisman!" Ye Xingchen snorted coldly and suddenly threw out the Heavenly Thunder Talisman in his hand.
Suddenly, the sky lost its color, and the whole yard fell into darkness. It was so cold and gloomy that people couldn't open their eyes.
A flash of lightning and thunder struck directly from the sky towards the Shangshu Mansion.
"Boom!" There was a loud bang, deafening.
The vengeful spirits and evil ghosts were immediately terrified: "Damn it, it's actually the Heavenly Thunder Talisman. If it strikes us, we will be reduced to ashes!"
"Then stop talking nonsense and run away!"
However, the vengeful spirits and evil ghosts knew they could not escape, so one pounced on Minister Gu and the other pounced on his wife.
"Ah!" The Shangshu's wife screamed miserably, and two bolts of lightning struck the vengeful spirits and evil ghosts directly, and their souls were instantly shattered.
The Shangshu's wife was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground and fainted on the spot.
Minister Gu was not in a much better condition, he was also completely terrified.
Ye Xingchen didn't say much, but took out a resurrection talisman and shook it three times above Gu Beimo's head.
"Gu Beimo, the soul is back!"
As Ye Xingchen shouted, the resurrection talisman in his hand instantly turned into ashes, and Gu Beimo, who was originally unconscious on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.
The moment he saw Ye Xingchen, he froze suddenly: "Ye Xingchen, why are you here? I am here, why am I at home?"
When Minister Gu saw his son wake up, he ran over excitedly and said, "Bei Mo, you are finally awake. How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell?"
Gu Beimo was confused by the game and felt it for a while: "Father, I don't feel unwell, why is Ye Xingchen here?"
"That's good, that's good. The imperial physician sent you back and said that you fell off the altar. Your father invited all the doctors in the capital, but none of them could cure you.
Fortunately, Miss Ye came to save you. If anything had happened to you, your mother would have been in trouble. Fortunately, you are fine now." Minister Gu explained.
Only then did Gu Beimo remember the scene he saw on the altar, and it seemed that he had indeed fallen down.
At this moment, Gu Beimo lost his previous arrogance and was a little embarrassed: "Thank you Miss Ye for saving me. I have offended you before."
"I'm glad that Mr. Gu is okay. Minister Gu, please fulfill your promise!" Ye Xingchen said.
After seeing how Ye Xingchen dealt with vengeful spirits and evil ghosts, Minister Gu dared not delay any longer and immediately asked someone to bring paper and pen.
"Promise?" Gu Beimo was puzzled.
"Miss Ye agreed to save you, but the condition is that she gets that disaster star. Anyway, the Gu family won't want him anymore, so as long as you are okay, it's fine." Minister Gu explained, taking a pen and paper to write a letter of severance.
"Thank you, Minister Gu. From now on, the young master will have nothing to do with the Gu family." After Ye Xingchen said this, he turned and left.
Gu Beimo looked at Ye Xingchen's back and frowned slightly: "Dad, why does she want him?"
"Who cares? Ye Xingchen can exorcise evil spirits, and that disaster star was born in a yin year, so maybe it will be useful to Ye Xingchen. In short, as long as he doesn't harm our Gu family, he can be with whoever he wants!" Minister Gu was filled with disgust whenever he mentioned his other son.
Gu Beimo also knew how much his father hated that child, so he said no more.
Meanwhile, Ye Xingchen took the letter of severance, walked to an empty alley, took out a teleportation talisman, and instantly disappeared from the spot.
When she appeared, she was already at the gate of a dilapidated courtyard a hundred miles away.
