Demon Lord Gets Married

Chapter 163

Chapter 163 - How Shameless

“Father, are you really going to let Seventh Brother marry a member of the Inferior Prime Minister family? He's only fourteen years old! ” Huo Yiming pushed open the door of the study room and asked straightforwardly.

He had just returned from the military camp and had heard about the marriage decree as soon as he arrived home. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't think that it was a good thing.

The men of Huo Family would rarely form a marriage alliance with the ministers of the imperial court, and the more the descendants were targeted, the more distant they would be from the political center. This was also to show their loyalty to the emperor and his subjects.

“The imperial edict was given to me by the Emperor. Don't tell me that I, your father, can still defy it?”

“But Seventh Brother …” Before Huo Yiming could even finish his words, he was interrupted by Huo Zhengquan, “Although Huo Tian is still young, he's already at the age where he can get married. Rather than letting him mess around with the imperial family, it's better to have him take care of it as soon as possible.”

The Huo Yiming had similar thoughts, he was also someone who knew the relationship between Huo Tian and himself, and he also wanted to find a suitable woman for him to be his wife. Once he had a child, he might not think too much about the man.

However, this matter was still not that simple. If Huo Tian really did not agree, doing so would only waste the last bit of their kinship.

Huo Zhengquan also knew this, “Why do you think the emperor bestowed him a marriage this time? It's just a feud between youngsters, and once they get married, it will be over. The one with him is the Third Prince, and with his recent performance, I'm afraid his achievements will not be small, so why would the Emperor allow him to be related to Huo Family? “

As the eldest son, Huo Yiming was very clear about the situation of his family. He naturally knew that there was a cliff behind the glory of Huo Family, and taking a step back would result in his body being smashed into smithereens.

“I heard that the Emperor pointed out to the Third Prince the daughter of the political governor of the Li family, who was also the Duke of Qin's niece. Did you think that he simply wanted to separate Huo Tian from Teng Yu?”

“This …” The Huo Yiming frowned and thought for a while before realizing the intention behind his move. The Emperor probably still had thoughts of probing his plan when he used this move.

The palace had not been peaceful recently. No matter who it was, as long as the Emperor held a few important figures in his hands, he would naturally not be afraid of anything.

“Then the Third Prince has agreed?” If that brat dared to agree, he would immediately go to the Third Prince Mansion to kidnap Huo Tian!

He had finally managed to invite Seventh Brother to come back, but after going out for a trip, he directly moved into Third Prince Mansion after coming back. It was obvious that he did not plan to take the initiative to go home.

Speaking of this matter, Huo Zhengquan's expression became complicated, “No, not only did he not agree, he even chased the eunuch out of the residence.”

“He really dares …” Huo Yiming had no choice but to cheer for this prince, but he didn't know whether or not he could bear the consequences.

“Now that I have discovered, there is really nothing this His Highness The Prince doesn't dare to do. He was acting crazy in his early years and did not follow the rules. No one said anything to him. Everyone is already used to his presumptuous behavior and no longer takes it seriously.”

“Hearing you say this, this Third Prince is truly scary. I wonder if Seventh Brother will suffer any losses.”

Huo Zhengquan shot a glance at his eldest son. He was always talking to his seventh brother, and felt extremely comforted in his heart. Huo Yiming might not be his most outstanding son, but he was still the most satisfied.

He had the bearing and magnanimity that a person with Huo Family should have when they are a family member, and the development he had was not enough. As long as nothing major happens, he would be able to support this kind of successor for a generation.

Huo Zhengquan passed the imperial edict on the table to him, and instructed: “Bring this with you to the Third Prince Mansion, and tell Huo Tian, your father will decide the marriage in September, and it will be done by next month!”

Huo Yiming was stunned for a moment before taking the imperial edict, and left expressionlessly.

When he found out that Teng Yu had rejected the decree, he knew what his seventh brother's reaction would be. Therefore, when the other party threw the imperial edict back to him, he wasn't surprised at all.

“I'll have to trouble you to go back and tell Marshal Huo that he can have a wife if he wants me. Just change him to Teng Yu.”

“…” Huo Yiming looked at him speechlessly, before sighing, “You really want to do this? Do you know that this is an imperial edict? Third Prince can bear the crime of disobeying the decree, but you can't! “

This child was really used to living freely outside. How could he know that he was forced to do so in the imperial court?

Yin Xu rubbed his chin, “That's true. The Emperor was just worrying about not having the chance to use his Huo Family, maybe he was waiting for me to defy the decree and make a punishment for his Huo Family.”

“It's good that you understand. Since father has agreed to this, there is no reason to go back on your words. Why don't you first end this marriage. In the future, cough cough …” “What do you think about slowly planning it out in the future?”

Huo Yiming believed that as long as the two of them were to be separated for a period of time, based on his past misdeeds, he would probably give up before long.

“That's a good idea, don't you think?” Yin Xu looked at Teng Yu with a ridiculing smile. From start to finish, this man had been quietly sitting at the side all along.

Teng Yu glanced at the brothers, then spoke to the Huo Yiming: “There is no need for Brother Yiming to worry, there is absolutely no Huo Family involved, I promise you.”

“Is he really that stubborn?” Huo Yiming really did not understand their thoughts. If they were truly sincere, marrying a woman and using them as furnishings was fine, but who would use a rope to tie them up and stop them from meeting again?

“In this life, a person must have their own perseverance, whether it be person or matter, and for what your majesty insists on, Huo Tian is one of them, so Brother Yiming need not waste your breath.”

Yin Xu shot him a glance and asked, “Just one of them?”

Teng Yu smirked and said helplessly: “Alright, it's the most important one.”

“Humph, you don't have any sincerity!”

Huo Yiming felt unwell all over as he watched the two of them flirting and joking in front of him. It was not that he had never seen men with good manners, nor had he never met men with love, but there was truly no one like these two, who were so … Unbridled.

Knowing that his father's order could no longer be carried out, Huo Yiming did not stand in his way and left with a heart full of worry.

“This big brother of yours is not bad, you can interact more with him.” Teng Yu said.

Another person's figure flashed across Yin Xu's mind, and he asked Teng Yu: “What do you think of Huo Yidao?”

“Huo Yidao? Your second brother? “

“Who cares if he is or not, what kind of person do you think he is?”

Teng Yu thought for a while, then shook his head: “I am not familiar with Huo Yidao, and have never paid attention to him.

Yin Xu didn't know how to explain it, he didn't know much about Huo Yidao, but with his own eyes, he knew that this person was definitely not as simple as he seemed. He was scheming even more than Huo Zhengquan, and it didn't matter if this kind of person did anything or not, once they did something, it would not be a good or bad thing.

“You think he has a problem?” Teng Yu soothed his eyebrows and kissed him on the corner of his eyes, “Then I'll send two people to follow him.

“No need, Huo Family doesn't have much of a relationship with us, there's no need to waste our manpower.” Yin Xu thought of an idea, he stood up and said: “I'll go talk to the two protectors.”

After Zuo Shaotang and Xiao Feng were brought back to the Third Prince Mansion, they didn't make any movements, and Yin Xu didn't even restrict them in their freedom. It was just that the two of them reached some sort of tacit agreement, and they didn't even step out of the main gate.

From the reports they received from the servants, the two of them played chess every day, exchanged moves, bickered, and actually lived quite comfortably.

“Yo, what kind of wind blew Seventh Young Master over?” Zuo Shaotang was picking peaches on a peach tree, and when he saw Yin Xu from afar, he shouted.

Yin Xu raised his head, seeing him holding his clothes and squatting on the branch, holding a peach that was half-eaten, and beneath the tree, his disciple and Xiao Feng were holding a basket and taking it, but the two of them had helpless looks on their faces.

The courtyard they lived in had a peach forest, and right now was the time for the peach to mature. No wonder they coveted it.

“Catch!” Zuo Shaotang threw a peach down from the tree. Yin Xu caught it and gave it to Wang Ren, who went to wash it and eat it.

“What a great interest …” Yin Xu walked into the courtyard with his hands behind his back. He first flew into a rage at his disciple, “What are you doing here? You don't need to recuperate? No more potions? You don't need to train anymore? “

Although Qingsheng's internal injuries had not fully healed, his four limbs were healthy, and did not affect his daily life at all. However, when his master said this, he immediately threw down his basket and ran out, “I'm going to lie down on the bed right now!”

“Hey!” What happened to the acceptance of defeat? He's even the son of the Martial Union Master, and doesn't even have that much credit! ” Zuo Shaotang jumped down from the tree, glanced at the fruit in the basket, and said with satisfaction: “Not bad, it's enough for us to eat for a few days.”

“If I remember correctly, this is my family's fruit. Did you guys get my permission to pick the peach?”

Zuo Shaotang smiled mischievously as he looked at him, “I heard that the Emperor bestowed the two of you a marriage. This Third Prince Mansion will bring back its mistress very soon, how can it be considered yours?” How shameless!

Yin Xu coldly snorted, “Then we will wait and see. Let's see if any women can step past this threshold!”

Zuo Shaotang shrugged his shoulders, believing that he indeed had the ability to do so.
