Nanli said seriously, "Father, don't worry. Our ancestors, including Grandfather, have all reincarnated. Even if you wanted to find them for an explanation, you wouldn't be able to."
Chu Hanlin staggered slightly upon hearing this, almost losing his balance.
"Be careful, Father," Nanli said quickly, supporting him.
Chu Hanlin steadied himself and cleared his throat. "Even so, I can't shake off the feeling of unease."
Nanli thought for a moment before adding, "Actually, Second Uncle was just being a little scheming. The punishment he received this time is already enough."
Chu Hanlin was relieved to see that his daughter agreed with the decision. It reassured him somewhat.
After returning to the Capital, he looked deeply fatigued.
"Go rest early," Chu Hanlin said, glancing at his two sons. "You two as well."
"Yes, Father," Chu Shuo replied.
Chu Yan, on the other hand, was a bit tongue-tied and stammered, unable to utter a single word.
