Chapter 270 - Your Highness Is Really Something Special
When Yin Xu woke up, there was no one in the room. There was a plate of cold pastries on the table. He washed up and ate two before changing his clothes and walking out.
Yin Xu was stunned as soon as he opened the door. The yard that he was familiar with was completely empty, even the grass was dug away, leaving behind a piece of yellow soil.
It didn't take him too long to figure out what was going on. He did a large Spirit Convergence Array yesterday, and now all the spiritual energy was gathered in the backyard. There wasn't enough spiritual energy in the mortal world to begin with, so it was normal for the surrounding plants to die.
He walked around to the backyard and looked at his treasure tree. He saw that it was green and the leaves were green. He nodded with satisfaction.
Walking out of the Scenic Garden, the servants were all busy. The entire mansion had to be dug up, and if one did not take the time to do so, it was impossible to finish it in two days.
As a result, the people in the vicinity discovered that something was amiss with the Third Prince Mansion. One carriage after another was pulled out of the Third Prince Mansion and carried the yellowish, withered leaves on the carriage out of the city.
Not only was this scene strange, but it was also unusual for the First Prince's residence to be here. Early in the morning, someone saw the steward of the First Prince's residence rushing over to the manor with a few famous saints and Taoists.
The only use of these people was to repel evil spirits and avoid taboos. He did not know what filthy things had come from the First Prince's estate to invite these people over.
When the crowd heard the news, they rushed over to watch the commotion. Someone pointed to the pile of dead leaves and asked, “What's going on?”
“Who knows? Looking at them, they look like plants and trees that can't be raised alive. It's likely that the farmers of Third Prince Mansion don't have the ability.”
“Go, your gardener can't raise those cycad trees and pine trees to death? Furthermore, there's so many of them, so your Third Prince Mansion must be bald now, right? “
Speaking of which, my family also has a garden that's withered away. That courtyard is rather remote and normally no one goes in there, but this morning, a woman passed by and discovered it. It's really strange.
“Are the other gardens all right?”
“It's nothing …” Ah, that garden is the closest to the Third Prince, tell me … ” There wouldn't be anything dirty, would there?
“I have a nephew who is working as a guard at Third Prince Mansion. I'll go ask him.”
“That's right, that's right. Quickly go and ask around. We, the people closest to us, must also pay more attention. What if …” It's also good to have a way to deal with this. “
When Yin Xu found Teng Yu, he was surrounded by a few other aides. When he was near, he heard someone say, “Your Highness, this is Sky Law! We must have done something to enrage the gods, if not why would we have such a warning? “
“Then tell me, what have we done to anger the gods?”
“This… Look, maybe the Seventh Young Master and the Palace are at odds, and the heavens are warning us that the plants that have died today are probably the animals' turn tomorrow. “
Teng Yu glanced at him coldly, and said indifferently, “Then let's wait for all the beasts to die tomorrow.”
Looks like he had to go back and ask Yin Xu if that array would absorb the Spiritual Qi of humans and animals. If it was, he had to think of a way to move that thing to the outskirts.
“Your Highness, there's no time to lose. Why don't we invite an esteemed monk to take a look?”
“If you're afraid of death, you can leave. This Prince won't stop you, hmph!” Teng Yu swung his sleeves, and the moment he turned around, he saw Yin Xu standing not too far away.
A warm smile unconsciously appeared on his face. “You're up. The kitchen is still warming up. I'll get someone to bring you some food.”
Yin Xu looked behind him, and the corner of his mouth hooked up, “Okay, but what are you trying to do? I almost can't recognize anyone in the manor. “
Teng Yu really wanted to say, wasn't this your doing? Currently, the outside world was abuzz with discussion about this matter. It was likely that someone would go on the paper very soon and cause a ruckus.
“This prince suddenly doesn't like plants anymore, how about we build a few large ponds inside the mansion to raise some fish?” You can still eat it when you grow up. “
Yin Xu imagined his residence filled with puddles of water and frowned, “Is it too ugly?”
“Of course not. It would be nice to get more fake mountains or something like that.”
“Really?” Can you look at a courtyard without a hint of green? A garden without a flower is still called a garden?
Teng Yu hesitated for a while, and said uncertainly: “Probably … Let's take it out and have a look first.
As a result, the Third Prince Mansion began to stir up the soil and trees. A large area of land was dug into a pond or piled into a small mountain.
The next morning, there were indeed people who reported Teng Yu to the imperial court, and it was not only that, some said that Third Prince wanted to build a divine altar in his own residence and cultivate to Immortal Ascension, and others said that he angered the gods and caused heavenly punishment so that not even a blade of grass would grow from it.
Some people also said that the marriage between the Third Prince and Commander Huo must have gone against the Yin Yang cycle and went against the heavens.
Of course, there were also people who insisted that it was because of the disaster brought by the Huo Family. Although there was no evidence that the Huo Family was a traitor, it must have been something that the Huo Family had done to let the common people down, thus allowing the heavens to punish Commander Huo.
The Marshal Huo who was lying on the ground was also shot, and only asked lightly: “If the heavens are so kind, why didn't they send out a bolt of lightning and kill you? I heard that the lord doted on his concubine, allowed his concubine to poison his wife and daughter to death, and even wanted to correct his concubine. You're not afraid that your wife would crawl back from hell to find you for revenge! “
“…” You… “You …” The official gasped and fainted.
“Alright, this is all nonsense!” The emperor ordered his subordinates to carry the official out, then asked Teng Yu: “Jie'er, tell me, what exactly is going on in your residence?”
Teng Yu rubbed his nose, then took a step forward, “Royal Father, your son is also confused, I woke up early in the morning to discover that all the plants in the manor have withered and died, your son had interrogated all the flower farmers in the manor, but was unable to find anything out. It was the night watchman who said that I saw a shadow run into the manor at night, but I just did not catch him.”
The reason he said that was obviously to tell everyone that the death of plants in the palace was caused by humans and not by Sky Law. Of course, no one would believe him.
“Are you saying that someone secretly snuck into the Third Prince Mansion to poison your family's flowers, plants and trees?” Who would be so bored?
Some people held back their laughter as they shrugged their shoulders.
“Your son doesn't know either. Why don't you investigate?” Teng Yu said innocently.
The First Prince also stood forward and said with reddened eyes, “Royal Father, please enlighten me. Your son's mansion has been nurtured, but only the part near Third Brother's mansion is left unharmed, not only is your son's mansion like this, the surrounding residences are also like this. Your son is thinking, perhaps Third Brother has provoked something bad, causing trouble for our neighborhood.”
The emperor didn't know what to do at the moment, so he asked the president of the Ministry of Industry to find a few agricultural officials to take a look at Third Prince Mansion. It was really strange.
The officials of the Yun Family Sect looked over the Third Prince once, and naturally did not look for Huo Zhengquan for trouble. This morning, all the limelight had been occupied by the Third Prince, whether it was fortune or misfortune, everyone's minds were filled with this strange occurrence.
After going down, Huo Yiming caught up to Yin Xu, and asked him with a low voice: “What happened? How did things turn out like this? “
Yin Xu shook his head, “It's fine, you don't have to worry.”
“How can I be alright? Why don't you move back with Third Prince for a few days, and then move back after the mansion has been arranged.
Of course Yin Xu would not agree, he still had a treasure hidden at home, what if someone found out and kept it?
Although he could still make excuses if they found out about him, the servants in the mansion were not stupid. It was very easy to guess the truth.
“Don't worry, I'm fine. Where did all these demons and ghosts come from! ” Even if he did, he was still the ancestor of demons and devils. Why would he need to be afraid of them?
The Huo Yiming couldn't do anything about him, so he decided to discuss it with his father later.
But Huo Zhengquan did not care, “They are all adults, what are you worrying about, knowing what the best course of action is?”
In Huo Zhengquan's eyes, his own son had never been schemed against by the Third Prince alone. If there really was a problem, he would be the first one to run away.
Third Prince didn't lack living quarters.
Huo Yiming thought that was reasonable, but he still decided to go check out the Third Prince Mansion. He was very curious about what was going on, as this matter was extremely bizarre, so even if someone was messing around, he should at least uncover it as soon as possible.
Huo Yiming followed behind the butler into the Third Prince Mansion, and what he saw left him flabbergasted. He had been here before, and had even silently criticized Third Prince for being unreasonable.
But now, everything was bare except for the houses. The potholed ground was not yet properly dug, making it look especially shabby.
Moreover, not a single leaf could be seen in the huge mansion, making him think of the Yellow Sand Ghost Domain in the northwest, “This won't do, right? Why not plant trees? “
The butler did not know how to answer this question, so he should be baffled. “This …” His Royal Highness said that he wanted to try a different style. “
The corner of Huo Yiming's mouth twitched, “Your Highness is really original!”
The steward thought to himself, “These words don't sound like good words. But from today onwards, he probably won't be willing to have guests visit him. Such a residence is really untouchable.”
Huo Yiming thought that it was about the same. He felt that if Third Prince Mansion continued to crumble at this rate, they would not be able to live in this place for long. He wondered if Seventh Brother would still be willing to guard this place at that time.
Thinking about that, Huo Yiming's heart moved, his eyes opened wide, he looked around. These two people would rather guard this shabby house than move it, could there be some treasure hidden here?
Well, Grandpa Huo is quite smart.
