Xie Pinggang furrowed his brows. He felt that he had encountered the biggest problem in his life.

Marrying a wife was much more difficult than killing and arson. Moreover… he was afraid that he would harm his wife. Even if he managed to marry her, she would not be able to live for more than a few days, right?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt a headache coming on. The excitement on his face had disappeared, and he looked rather scary.

Yu Xian did not think too much about it. She thought that something had happened to the grand preceptor, and she felt very sad.

She even could not help but think that Xie Pinggang was quite filial. Previously, he had said that he did not care about life and death, and she thought that this person was really so cold to his family. However, now, look at him. He was clearly only acting tough but soft-hearted.

In these troubled times, it was not good for Xie Pinggang to think too much about it.

After he returned, he immediately summoned the imperial physician to treat the grand preceptor.

The grand preceptor was seriously injured. There was not a single piece of flesh that was not wounded on his body, and he did not have much consciousness. He was extremely weak. The external injuries were easy to treat, but the internal injuries left the imperial physician helpless.

“The grand preceptor’s organs are damaged, as if he was poisoned. Right now, his organs are probably festering. I’m afraid that… There’s nothing I can do…

“The grand preceptor’s body is already injured, but he’s locked up in that dark place every day. If it’s extremely dirty, it won’t be good for him to recover. On the contrary, it will make his body even weaker. We can only make some medicine to make him feel less pain, but his life…”

There was nothing he could do.

Xie Pinggang heard the same thing several times in a day.

Xie Pinggang knew in his heart.

The grand preceptor must have suffered a backlash.

Xie Qiao’s decision to save him was the right one. The grand preceptor knew and nodded his head. However, looking at the grand preceptor like this, Xie Pinggang felt a little sad in his heart.

His biological father had never been reliable. When he was young, he stayed by the grand preceptor’s side and learned some reading and writing skills. He had gained a lot of knowledge.

A person who was like a master and like a father had now become like this.

The grand preceptor rested for a day and regained some consciousness. Only then did he open his eyes weakly.

“Did you capture my daughter?” He opened his eyes and asked.

Xie Pinggang nodded. “She was tied up in the criminal division. She was drugged and couldn’t wake up. We’ll deal with her when the Crown Prince returns.”

The grand preceptor’s breathing was weak. “It’s good that you caught her.”

“I don’t have any memories, but… looking at my daughter and disciple, I know that I’ve done many things wrong… Now that I’ve gotten this, it’s not an injustice… After I leave, you don’t have to be too sentimental.” The grand preceptor looked as if he had just returned from the afterlife.

Xie Pinggang gritted his teeth and nodded. “Life and death are determined by fate. I’m willing to accept it.”

“Let her die… in a decent way. After she dies, ask Mo Chusheng to help to release our souls. All the wealth I’ve accumulated in my life… will be donated in the name of her and her junior brother… to accumulate good fortune.”

He did not ask for her to be a rich and noble person in her next life. He only hoped that she could do some good deeds so that she would not have to suffer so much. In her next life, she would just have to live a normal life.

Xie Pinggang was sad.

That Great Consort Hui had caused the death of her own father, yet he still wanted to accumulate good fortune for her?

She wished!

Impossible!

With a cold expression, the grand preceptor could tell what he was thinking. “I have never asked you to do anything in my life. This is the only thing I am asking you to do…

“Father and daughter are fated to be together. It was because of that that there are now consequences,” the grand preceptor added.

When he was trapped in the secret room, he knew almost everything that happened in the past.

After he helped his daughter get rid of the heavenly eye, he must have lost a lot of luck and good karma. That was why he left a letter to cut ties with her. Perhaps the letter was too heartless, or perhaps his daughter had a bad life later on, so she became more and more stubborn.
