"You shouldn't say that to the Emperor."
Zhou Fan who was sitting on a boulder suddenly heard someone from behind him, he did not turn his head or try to respond, he was already familiar with the voice.
"I know you're doing that because you feel guilty about yourself, you shouldn't be so hard on yourself, don't take that burden on yourself."
"Originally you know I'm also part of the Cao Family, even though I'm not the main family." Lee approached and sat down next to Zhou Fan.
Zhou Fan was pensive, he glanced at Lee with the tail of his eyes, whereas the young man had a fate worse than his, but he still looked fine.
Lee instead of not wanting to avenge all the deeds of the eclipse society led by Wei Jia, even he would be the first to support Wei Jia's death.
"Demanding the eclipse society's a must-do, but it won't calm the spirits of the dead...,"
"They want their names clean again, so we must help clear Cao's surname." Lee said while looking at the darkening sky, it did not feel like he had accompanied Zhou Fan for too long even the day had started to change for the night.
The two decided to return, after taking longer for Lee to persuade Zhou Fan.
In a rather luxurious tent located in a green coral village, ...
Wei Huan sat on a chair reserved exclusively for him, to his right and left was Wei Yun as well as Ban Fulong.
Inside the tent were also several people standing on each side, in the middle of the tent four people kneeling in blood-filled clothes, one of them a woman in her fifties.
After clearing the green coral village from the body, the rebels who surrendered in the group while those who did not, were beheaded on the spot.
Some people who were forced to rebel did not get punished, but they had to deposit tribute every three months.
The tribute is intended for village villages around, especially green coral villages that became the scene of war.
Wei Jia, along with the magnate of the eclipse society that was none other than Tang Min, Tang Yu'er, as well as Elder Du had to get a fair reward, all four were sentenced to death, which would be done a week after returning to the Palace.
...
Two days have passed ... Slowly everyone started to return to their activities.
Right after his return, the Imperial edict came out, stating the Cao family was not involved in the treachery a few years ago.
The decree quickly spread, it had even reached the black stone city in one night.
Zhou Qian who heard the edict was no doubt pleased, he who was a descendant of the Cao family felt a burden lifted from his back.
Although without knowing why and who did it, the middle-aged woman seemed to be indifferent, because the most important thing for her was to watch back the fragrance of her family.
Like Zhou Qian, Zhou Fan who was in Lotus city felt the same way as his mother, although he did not feel a direct connection with the Cao family, he was relieved when he heard the decree.
...
The main palace hall...
Enthusiast happened there, Wei Huan held a large banquet, he aimed to introduce the young man or rather his daughter-in-law.
Wei Yun already knew who Zhou Fan was, he was so amazed by the young man who was his future sister-in-law.
The relationship between the two was well established, Zhou Fan's nature was a major factor in the relationship between the two, but the young man very rarely came out of his room, he just shut himself up while continuing to cultivate.
In the room of not only the people from the Lotus city, but also the White Chalk City, the combined forces of the White Chalk Clan accidentally crossed paths with the Imperial retinue that was traveling back.
Zhou Fan who was introduced as the Emperor's son-in-law had some people shocked, especially Patriarch Qing and also Qing Si who were also there.
The banquet ended smoothly, some people uttered to Zhou Fan as well as Wei Huan.
As Zhou Fan shook hands with Qing Si, the middle-aged man looked at Zhou Fan with a meaningful gaze, he seemed to want an explanation from the young man who was also his daughter-in-law.
...
According to what has been determined, the four people who became the brains of the eclipse society will be sentenced to death, the four of them are paraded around the Lotus City to give a message so as not to do what they have done.
After performing various rituals, the four men were eventually executed, without giving the opportunity to say their final wishes.
The Tang noble family, famous as a distinguished family, turned into an ordinary family, some of its assets confiscated by the Empire.
Those directly involved will be locked up in a dungeon for life.
Not only the Tang noble family, the sect sect that was directly involved was turned into a small sect and even abolished, like the wind spear sect that no longer had a name in the Wei Empire.
However, the patriarch of the wind spear sect still had no definite news of its existence, according to a rumor that was spread, Que Ye fled to the Xiao Empire, because there was his elder brother.
For the people of the Yu Clan who participated in the war to get the same punishment as others, in brackets in the dungeon.
And those who do not participate in the war must be prepared to face the threat of expulsion from the White Chalk City Clan, for having defected and demonized the name of White Chalk City.
In addition, the entire central Lotus City was bustling with flattering the figure of the young man who was the Emperor's son-in-law, without knowing the name as well as the look of the young man.
The news that he was the reverser when the war made his figure known, many parents make his figure as a role model to encourage their children.
...
In the room that looked luxurious, Zhou Fan sat down with two middle-aged men who were looking at him meaningfully.
"Emn... Father-in-law?"
The two middle-aged men turned their heads together, the two then looked at each other and displayed fierce competition.
"He didn't call you, why are you looking?" Wei Huan asked in a astonished voice.
Qing Si frowned, then replied to Wei Huan's words. "Your honorable highness, not only are you his father-in-law, he is also my daughter's fiancee, so I belong to his father-in-law."
Wei Huan was surprised by what Qing Si said, but he preferred to ask Zhou Fan for an explanation.
Zhou Fan scratched the nape of his head, he displayed an awkward smile before his two fathers-in-law.
Zhou Fan slowly explained to the two middle-aged men, and the two suddenly smiled as they hugged each other.
"What's really going on?" zhou Fan thought in his mind.
The young man was puzzled by the behavior of the two middle-aged men before him.
The two middle-aged men instead looked familiar and even started to ignore Zhou Fan.
"This is the fate of a son-in-law who is not considered!" inner Zhou Fan with a complaining tone.
