After all, he was the son of Marquis Yifeng, and yet he actually cooperated with the evil sect. If this were to get out, he would be scolded by the world.
For example, the imperial edict from the Emperor of the Xian Dynasty to reduce the power of the vassal states, no, to punish them, would probably be sent to Tianhai Prefecture the next day.
However, although he was not happy, he could not change the facts that had already happened.
Today, the Wuyou Sect and the Yin-Yang Harmony Sect are 100% sure that he is the "natural born devil".
Although Han Mo knew that he was not a real demon and everything was just their misunderstanding.
But on this matter, he obviously could not afford to make any excuses.
Therefore, once this Immortal Dynasty Grand Master, who hated evil and was known as the nemesis of the devil, knew that the natural devil was Han Mo, he would be afraid...
Of course, putting aside the matter of Mozi, Han Mo finally knew the real reason why Gao Siya came to Tianhaizhou in advance, which led to the change in the plot.
It's because of him.
If he had known this earlier, he would not have tried to capture Le Wuyou, and he would not have become a natural born demon.
But it's too late to regret now.
On the other side, after explaining the matter of the natural demon child, Gao Siya quickly asked the Han family for help.
After all, the power of one person is limited, and the Han family is the local tyrant in Tianhaizhou, with their spies spread all over the state.
Moreover, Mr. Han has a wide network of contacts. Although he made many political enemies in Luojing back then, since he has political enemies, he naturally also has allies.
Han Lin has many old friends with whom he has deep connections in the officialdom of the Great Zhou. Not only that, the five major holy places will also give him some face, so it can be said that he has extremely deep connections with people.
Therefore, if you want to find someone in Tianhai Province, asking the Han family for help is naturally the best choice.
Only then would she change her face and put on nice clothes.
All of this was done to show goodwill to the Han family and seek their help.
After all, she didn't have much friendship with the Han family, so this was the only way.
However, facing this eager look, Gao Siya was expecting the Han family to lend a helping hand.
Han Feiyu did not agree directly. After looking at Han Mo, he suggested that he consider it and give a reply later.
……
So, in the second half of the night, the welcome banquet finally came to an end.
The focus of this banquet was naturally the Grand Tutor Gao Siya who was dressed as a beautiful lady.
She almost became the most beautiful scenery in the whole venue. However, except for the beginning when she was communicating with Han Mo, she seemed quite relaxed and happy, and occasionally laughed softly.
In the second half, she was serious almost the entire time, and even at the very end, there was a hint of disappointment on her face that she could not hide.
The disappointment was natural because she had shown such kindness and even changed into women's clothes to show her sincerity.
But at the banquet, she spoke several times and asked the Han family for help.
But Han Feiyu kept avoiding the subject, and the other party always cleverly changed the topic, so that after a whole night, she finally returned empty-handed.
Fortunately, under Han Mo's enthusiastic persuasion, Gao Siya chose to stay at Han's house.
Mainly, she wanted to wait for the Han family to give her a clear answer.
Although judging from the current situation, it is not ideal.
After the banquet, Gao Siya returned to the guest room arranged by the Han family. Before she could say anything, her servant began to speak up for her:
"This is too much. You are the current Grand Tutor, and you have humbled yourself to ask the Han family for help. But Han Feiyu has refused to express his opinion. This is really too much..."
It was no wonder that the book girl was so angry. She had never seen the Grand Tutor whom she admired suffer such a humiliation like today. Naturally, she was furious.
No wonder the Immortal Emperor dislikes the Han family. With this attitude, it would be strange if the Immortal Emperor didn't reduce the Han family's vassalage.
"Yier, don't talk nonsense."
Fortunately, before the book boy could continue to output two sentences, he was interrupted by Gao Siya.
As a believer in Confucianism, she naturally would not allow her own servant to speak ill of others behind their backs.
However, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart:
Alas, I just hope that the Han family will agree to her request tomorrow.
Not for anything else, just to eliminate demons and defend justice, and bring peace to Great Zhou!

"Okay, I won't say anything, but Master Taifu, do you think the Han family will agree to help in the future? Han Feiyu said he would consider it, but it's not an excuse, right?"
After being scolded by Gao Siya, the book boy stuck out his tongue slightly and did not dare to continue to say bad things about the Han family, but she was still a little worried:
“What if the Han family refuses tomorrow, what should we do?
Should we go to the Six Sects of Tianhaizhou for help, or should we simply ask His Majesty for an order?"
In response to the servant's question, Gao Siya gave a bitter smile and quickly shook her head.
Their imperial court has always been at odds with the sects, and Tianhai Prefecture is far away in the southern border, so the emperor is far away.
If Emperor Zhou really issued an edict, perhaps they would obey it.
But if it was just her, the Prince's tutor, who came to the door, even if the other party agreed on the surface, it was impossible for them to try their best to help her find the person in private. After all, that was the business of the Six Sects of the Sinful Demonic Path.
Of course, Gao Siya had thought about asking Emperor Zhou for an order.
However, although Emperor Zhou supports her in eradicating the evil sect on the surface, it is hard to say what his attitude is behind the scenes.
The mind of an emperor requires a balance. If the current Great Zhou were to destroy the six sects of the devil, it would inevitably lead to the dominance of the five holy places.
Likewise, if the five holy places were missing, the six sects of the devil would become more powerful.
"..."
So Gao Siya didn't know how to answer for a moment, and she couldn't think of any better solution if the Han family didn't help.
The atmosphere suddenly became gloomy.
In order to ease the atmosphere, the book boy had to change the subject:
"By the way, Master Taifu, your student... is Han Mo, the son of the Han family. I didn't expect him to be so handsome, with a good temperament, and speaks kindly.
Even among the princes and nobles in the imperial capital, he is still a top-notch handsome man~!
Gao Siya was stunned for a moment when she saw that her own servant was obviously very angry when talking about the Han family, but acted like a fangirl when talking about a certain Han family's eldest son.
Apparently she also remembered the long-lost student she met at today's banquet.
I never expected that... the crybaby back then would grow up to be so handsome.
Moreover, his speech and behavior were gentle and polite, and his demeanor was humble and respectful, which obviously matched her Confucian "propriety".
What a handsome gentleman, very impressive...
At this moment, the two girls were stunned by the elegant and handsome prince at the banquet.
There’s no way, this is the charm of the Great Zhou Succubus!
"Master Taifu, Master Taifu...what are you thinking about?"
Fortunately, the book boy was not infatuated for long and soon came to his senses, only to find that his own tutor was in a daze.
And she clearly noticed that for some reason there was some strange emotion in Gao Siya's eyes.
"Oh, nothing, why did you mention him suddenly?"
After the servant boy shouted, Gao Siya finally came back to her senses. She quickly suppressed the strange expression on her face and stopped thinking about the handsome prince.
So what if he's handsome...he's her student!
"What I mean is, Master Taifu, isn't he your student? Why don't we go and ask him for help?"
Gao Siya's heart moved when she heard this, but after thinking about it carefully for a while, she quickly shook her head.
Not to mention that it was more than ten years ago that she taught Han Mo. Although Han Mo seemed polite to her now, whether he actually remembered her was another matter.
Besides, Han Mo is just a young prince of the Han family. He obviously cannot make the decision on such a big matter.
Going to him herself would not be of any use and would only cause trouble to her student.
"Let's not talk about this anymore, Yi'er, it's getting late, you should go downstairs and get some rest!"
Finally she sighed and sent the servant away.
But that night, she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep all night.
She has been wondering whether the Han family will agree to her request tomorrow.
……
……
The next morning, Gao Siya got up very early.
Since it was still early, she naturally could not get a reply from the Han family at this moment.
And she couldn't stand staying in the dull room any longer, so she simply took her servant and went for a walk in the back garden of the Han family.
It was also when she was taking a walk that she went to the main hall of the Marquis's mansion, which was usually used to discuss family affairs and receive guests.
Han Feiyu gathered a group of clan leaders early in the morning to discuss the request made by the Grand Tutor yesterday.
Han Mo was naturally present as well, as this was the place where he first met his grandfather Han Lin half a year ago.
The hall is decorated in the utmost luxury, with neatly arranged tables and chairs made of fine sandalwood, exuding a faint fragrance.
The soft sunlight in the early morning shines through the hollow carved window lattices, making the lobby warm and bright.
Since Han Mo arrived late, after stepping into the main hall, he discovered that more than a dozen elders of the Han family had already gathered there.
Since Han Lin was still in seclusion, Han Feiyu was sitting on the main seat in the center of the hall. Several middle-aged men and women and old men were sitting in the two rows of seats below the main seat.
The seats of these people were arranged according to seniority. Sitting in order of seniority were his third great uncle Han Wuque, second uncle, third cousin, fourth uncle, fifth uncle, and several Jindan elders from the Han family's side branches.
This scene looked very familiar. After all, when Han Mo recognized the wrong grandfather, there were also several relatives and elders present.
