Chapter 250 - Your Highness Please be Careful of What You Say
The next day, news of Seventh Young Master Huo's secret seizure of stolen money spread throughout the capital. This was a topic that everyone discussed on the streets and alleyways, and it became more and more exaggerated as the news spread, saying that the Duke of Qin had a treasure trove.
Everyone became more and more happy as they guessed the exact amount of the treasures. Some said that with the treasures, one would be as rich as a nation, and the Seventh Young Master Huo gave all of the money to the Third Prince.
When Yin Xu heard these rumors, he almost spat out his tea and asked Teng Yu: “What are they trying to do by spreading these rumors?”
What treasure trove that was as wealthy as a nation? Although he did take quite a few, he only took fifteen carriages, right? However, with his and Teng Yu's wealth added together, they were already as rich as a nation.
Teng Yu was also thinking about the reason for doing so. If it was simply to slander Yin Xu's reputation, then it would be a little easy.
“Wait a little longer, the fox tail will always be exposed.” Teng Yu did not ask anyone to stop the spread of the rumors, he only asked them to pay close attention to the Yun Family and the First Prince.
Other than them, he couldn't think of anyone else that would target Yin Xu.
Yin Xu did not care about his reputation in the first place, he did not care about Teng Yu making him wait, he would occasionally go to the teahouse to secretly hear what they had to say about him, it was like listening to a drama.
Three days later, the Huo Yiming personally came to take Seventh Brother home, and the Marshal summoned him.
It had been a while since Huo Zhengquan had returned, yet Yin Xu had never taken the initiative to return, and the other party seemed to have forgotten this son of his. He was not as unyielding as he was back then, and wanted to kidnap him from the Third Prince.
“Is he busy?” Yin Xu welcomed the elder brother in name in the courtyard.
Huo Yiming sized Yin Xu up. After not seeing him for half a year, he realized that this Seventh Brother had grown quite a bit. His face had also grown bigger, and his temperament had become more reserved.
“Cough, long time no see. Is seventh brother well?”
Yin Xu rolled his eyes, “Didn't you see how I was doing?”
“Hehe, I heard about what happened to Seventh Brother in the Southwest. You did very well, and I think my father called you back to ask you about the matters in the Southwest as well.”
With regards to the formation that could shake city walls, the Huo Family was very interested. This kind of formation that was more powerful than any offensive weapon, if it could be spread into the Huo Family Army, it would undoubtedly be able to raise the quality of the Huo Family Army by a large amount.
“What's there to ask? There's a lot of talk outside. You can ask him outside and you'll find out.”
“Rumors usually come out of nowhere, so I don't believe the rumors outside. I don't believe father will believe it either.” The Huo Yiming said solemnly.
Yin Xu wanted to say something, what does it have to do with me if you believe it or not? ” If you have anything to ask, ask him to pass it on to you clearly. If I can answer, I'll answer.
The corner of Huo Yiming's mouth twitched, “Seventh brother, why are you like this? After all, we are family, and it's been so long since father came back, you have not come to visit. This is bad for your reputation.”
The matter of Yin Xu and Third Prince was well-known, everyone was guessing when he would be kicked out of the sect, and filial piety was no longer the main concern of the people.
“I don't care.” Yin Xu waved his hand, telling him to stop lecturing.
Huo Yiming was silent for a moment, “You have always been a member of the Huo Family.” Towards this Seventh Brother, he truly loved and hated him at the same time. If it wasn't for the fact that he had suffered so much since he was young, Huo Yiming would have been ashamed.
Neither of them could convince the other, and the stalemate continued until Teng Yu arrived.
Teng Yu was dressed in a profound robe, his head was tied up in a jade crown, and elegantly floated over and asked: “Why did no one notify me when Young Master Huo visited?”
Huo Yiming bowed to him, then revealed his intentions for coming here. Holding in his anger, he asked: “Does Your Highness still remember what this official said to you back then?”
“Oh? Which sentence do you mean? “
“This subject said before that I would absolutely not agree to the marriage between you and Seventh Brother unless the emperor decreed it, right?”
“This, ah, is indeed the case. This Prince is currently working hard.”
Huo Yiming had never known that Third Prince's skin was so thick. “His Majesty had already bestowed the marriage to Seventh Brother, His Highness's efforts seem to have been fruitless.”
If his guess was not wrong, the main reason his father asked him to come and find Seventh Brother was for his marriage, but he did not dare to tell this reason to Yin Xu.
“Could it be that Huo Family intends to make a marriage alliance with the Inferior Prime Minister?” Teng Yu pulled Yin Xu up from the chair, and patted his back: “Go and change your clothes, and come and visit Marshal Huo with me.”
Yin Xu looked at him in shock, “You want to see him? “What is it?”
Teng Yu smiled mysteriously, “Of course it's something very important, go quickly!”
Yin Xu curled his lips, and finally did not oppose the return of his Huo Family. After he left, the two people present stared at each other without saying a word.
An hour later, a carriage stopped outside the Marshal's Mansion. Huo Yiming jumped off his horse and watched as Teng Yu pulled Yin Xu off the carriage.
Huo Yiming really could not understand, he was clearly a tall and sturdy Seventh Brother, a man with exceptional martial arts skills, why does he like to ride on carriages whenever he goes out?
After bringing him into the residence, Huo Yiming directly brought them to the study room. After sending him in, he left himself.
In the study room, Huo Zhengquan was currently reading a book seriously. After not seeing him for half a year, the cold air around him seemed to have become even stronger.
Seeing that Teng Yu had also come, Huo Zhengquan did not express the slightest bit of surprise. He directly asked Yin Xu, “I have been back for so many days, why are you not coming to visit me? Don't you know even the most basic of filial piety? “
“Filial piety? What is that? ” Yin Xu looked at him innocently. Since no one had taught him this in his two lifetimes, he naturally did not put it in his eyes.
“If you don't understand, I'll call someone to teach you!”
“No, that's good.”
Teng Yu was not in a hurry as he was forgotten at the side. After the father and son duo had quarreled calmly, he finally said, “I came here today to discuss a matter with the Marshal.”
“It just so happens that I have something to discuss with His Royal Highness.” “Huo Zhengquan took the initiative to take the initiative,” His Majesty bestowed the marriage to me last year, and when Huo Tian was still young, I let him do whatever he wanted, but now, he should be at the age to get married, what does Your Highness think?
The corner of Teng Yu's mouth rose slightly as he replied with a smile that was not a smile, “Marshal is asking for my opinion? “That's very bad, of course!”
“No, I am not asking for it. I am telling you, from today onwards, it is better for His Highness to keep his distance from my son.”
Yin Xu and Teng Yu looked at each other and said in unison, “Impossible!”
Yin Xu drank his tea at a leisurely pace, “I already said before, whoever takes the order to marry that woman has nothing to do with me.”
“What a joke!” Is that what you decide? ” Huo Zhengquan had never been pushed back by his son before. Even when Huo Yidao had insisted on going along with the plan back then, she had never used this tone to speak to him before.
“I have the final say on who to marry! Can you force me to go to someone else's room and be married to someone else? ” Yin Xu threw away his teacup, got up and patted his sleeves: “Since there's nothing else, let's do it this way.”
Teng Yu pressed down on his shoulder, “Don't be anxious, I haven't revealed my purpose of coming here yet.”
Yin Xu looked to the side and asked curiously: “What business do you have with him?”
Teng Yu smiled and did not answer, but turned and knelt in front of Huo Zhengquan, “Father-in-law, please accept this respect from your son-in-law.”
“…” As if struck by lightning, the father and son duo from Huo Family revealed a rare similar expression.
Yin Xu kicked him from behind, “Hey, are you crazy?” What was going on?
“Your Highness, please be careful of what you say!” Huo Zhengquan stood up quickly and glared at his.
Teng Yu stood up after bowing, “To be honest, my lady and Huo Tian are mutual in our love, our love is stronger than gold, we cannot separate no matter who it is, whether it is you or the Royal Father, if you make a decision that would make things difficult for us, we can also do something that would make things difficult for the elders.”
“Are you threatening me?”
“How dare you?” Teng Yu smiled gently, “This prince is only speaking the truth.”
“The fact is, the Emperor gave an imperial edict and my Huo Family must obey it!” Huo Zhengquan looked at him seriously, his words were strict like never before, “As a prince, I don't care what His Highness wants, but as Huo Tian is my son, you can't decide what to do with him.”
“No, you're wrong. How should he decide? I can't control him, and neither can you!” No one knew Yin Xu better than them, although most of the time Yin Xu listened to him, but he knew that no matter what Yin Xu wanted to do, no one could stop him.
“I will say this first. If any woman dares to marry him, I will dare to take her life!”
“Even if he dies, he must marry the granddaughter of the Inferior Prime Minister. I don't mind letting him marry the tablet.”
Both of their auras surged, and neither of them let the other go. The study room was filled with the smell of smoke.
