After a few days of rumors swirling, Dugu Han could no longer sit idly by. He issued an imperial decree that anyone caught discussing the matter would be executed on the spot without pardon. Despite this, not even he could silence the relentless whispers.
Dugu Han had been troubled for several days. Since Zhuifeng went to investigate who was behind the poisoning, there had been no progress. The only clue was that a young woman, her face covered with a veil, had purchased something, but beyond that, all was unknown.
The scorching sun could not melt the frost on Dugu Han's face. Unknowingly, he found himself walking towards the Moon Fairy Palace. Recalling Xiu Yang, a hint of regret surged in his heart. If only he hadn't been so stubborn, he might have saved his child. Thoughts of the lost child brought a luster to his dull eyes, and for the first time in days, a joyful smile graced his face.
