Chapter 281: Despicable usation
Gao Manor
Gao Qi is ring at Gao Shen who is walking anxiously in front of him. "Stop. You are not helping at all." He finally snapped at his brother that is more worried than him.
They are currently in his room with Mu Hongqi, there nephew thinking of ways to deal with the family''s current predicament.
"Father and Li Mao are with her." Gao Qi stated seriously. Even though his face is not showing any emotion, it does not mean that is really the case. The emperor forbade him to interfere as a minister.
A day before, the Ming family''s current master had requested the audience to the Emperor using Wei Jiayi of killing his daughter because of Gao Lan Mei''s request.
As a father, he was furious so he immediately stood up defend his daughter, which earns the Emperor''s displeasure. Since he is a minister, it is expected that his decision will be fair regardless of who is involved.
Yes, he should be fair, but before he became a minister, he is a father first! Gao Qi will not listen to anyone who nders his daughter with something that just impossible!
For Gao Qi, if serving the empire will remove his chance or capability to defend his daughter or family, might as well forget about it.
The sad part though, if he lost his position as minister, and Wei Jiayi changed his mind of marrying Gao Lan Mei, then he needs to depend on his father Gao Tsu''s connection to continue protecting the Gao household.
It is not entirely a bad thing but his pride as a father, husband and a man will be affected.
A momentter, while the Emperor is still thinking things through, Concubine Li arrived as well directly using his daughter of sorcery, with a im of cursing to get Chen Yun Ming to marry Gao Lan Mei.
Though magic is part of cultivation, sorcery on any Domain is not eptable as it involves dark magic that makes use of evil curses and rituals.
Gao Lan Mei using sorcery is another despicable usation that he cannot ept. Probably if sorcery is something his daughter is really capable of, he will be the first one to encourage her to cast immortal maggots to the concubine who had caused scars on Gao Lan Mei''s face.
At that time, he was silent because he does not have evidence to prove that Li Hua is really involved to it. Now the petty concubine has guts to use of Gao Lan Mei of something that she can never do!
The usation from the Ming family and second prince concubine though are without evidence, it does not mean though that there is no way for them to find faults on Wei Jiayi and Gao Lan Mei.
"Master!" Gao Chu shriek after arriving at Gao Qi''s courtyard while she tries to catch her breath, "The young miss is summoned to the pce!" she added frantically still breathless from running.
Though she was not able to confirm it herself, Gao Chu immediately decided that went back to the Gao Manor as soon as the news reached her ears.
"What?!" Gao Shen eximed, give it to his father to be useless. How can Gao Lan Mei go to the pce if Gao Tsu is supposed to be with her?
Gao Qi stood up, his feast clenching due to frustration as he went out of the Gao Manor to see his family in the pce. Gao Shen, Gao Chu, and even Xiao Jun followed him.
Some of the protectors from Zicuy Regime also came along with them. Even Mu Hongqi, Gao Lan Mei''s cousin joined as well.
If the emperor ever tried to choose sides and unfairly issued a degree to Gao Lan Mei, he will forget all the hard work that he did for the empire. He will never serve an unjust emperor!
