Chapter 258 - Third Prince must be Crazy
Teng Yu and Huo Zhengquan chatted in the study room for a long time. When the two came out, they looked quite satisfied.
Yin Xu was curious about what the two had said. He chased after Teng Yu and asked a few times, but the other party refused to reveal anything.
Yin Xu thought for a while and made a guess, “Did Huo Zhengquan sell me out? To get your support? “
This is also very possible. Huo Family is currently facing a crisis, if we can work with Third Prince Mansion, then even the Emperor need not put it in his eyes.
Teng Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. “You underestimate your father too much.
“Then where did you get the proper marriage? Didn't he always say that it was hard to disobey the teachings of our ancestors? “
Teng Yu blinked his eyes, and reached out to pinch Yin Xu's cheeks, “A secret!”
Yin Xu looked at each other in anger, he really wanted to search his soul, but in consideration for his own happiness and growth in cultivation, he couldn't bear to do anything.
“Alright, do you want to come back with me or continue living in Huo Family? I have to go back and take care of some things. “
“Yin Xu was just angered by him, so he's naturally unwilling to follow him back.” Go, since my Huo Family are in danger, I have to do something for my original body.
Teng Yu did not force him, as compared to Third Prince Mansion, Huo Family were much safer, and no one would dare to cause trouble here, so after he was done with this matter, he would come pick him up.
At night, a piece of news came out from the palace. Yang Hu had died in the Sky Prison without being certain about it, but he had left behind a blood letter before he died, which was even more shocking than the one he had left behind.
Huo Family only managed to get their hands on the blood scroll in the middle of the night, and after reading it, all of them fell silent.
“Just how much hatred does Yang Hu have towards our family? To actually slander Huo Family like that!” Huo Yiming punched on the table, blue veins popping out from his forehead.
If Yang Hu had not been born of Huo Family Army and was not a good friend of the Huo Yiming, he would not have been so furious.
Not only did the blood book repeat Yang Hu's earlier report, it also wrote down many details, such as which prince of the Northern Barbarians the Marshal Huo colluded with, or how Huo Family Army released the enemy intentionally, and even lied about the number of casualties, or defrauded pensions from the imperial court.
In the Northwest, wherever Huo Zhengquan went, all the officials kneeled down respectfully. As long as Huo Zhengquan made a decision, the officials there would not refute him. The Northwest had already become the Northwest of Huo Zhengquan, and it was much more serious than when the Duke of Qin had occupied the entire Kun City.
Yin Xu had originally only come to make up numbers, but after looking through the blood book occasionally, he couldn't help but praise: “There are at least a thousand words here. To be able to write so many words with his own blood before dying, I reckon Yang Hu must have died entirely of blood.”
“...” All of the males' heads were filled with black lines, but none of them knew how to retort.
“Isn't it?” Yin Xu looked around, and seeing that everyone was disapproving, he asked: “Then how did he die, did he commit suicide or kill himself? Are there any results? “
“Not yet, there are no obvious injuries on Yang Hu's body, only his ten fingers were bitten off by him. It can be seen that he has made a great decision.”
“Can I go and take a look?” Yin Xu became curious. The coroner of the Dazhu was still very powerful, it was not difficult to identify a person's cause of death, not to mention what happened in the Sky Prison. The Emperor would definitely send people to immediately investigate the cause of death.
However, until now, there was no clear answer.
“What are you doing?” Huo Yidao smiled faintly, with slight disdain, “What if others treat you as a murderer?”
“Brother!” Huo Yiming looked at him warily. He didn't know what was going on with this brat, but the moment he saw Seventh Brother, he started to choke.
Thinking about it, it wasn't possible. They shouldn't have had any interaction with each other.
Huo Yiming put down his doubts and said to Yin Xu: “Right now, the corpse has already been carried into the palace. We can only report to the Emperor tomorrow before we enter the palace to take a look.” Moreover, he had to do it in front of everyone else. Otherwise, if there were any problems, he would be unable to defend himself.
“The political situation in the imperial court is ever-changing. Tomorrow will no longer be a peaceful day. Prepare yourselves, and you will be at court on time tomorrow.” Huo Zhengquan stood up, his waist as straight as a spear, his eyes as deep as the lake, making people subconsciously want to submit.
“Yes!” The official took out a book from his sleeve. “This is a letter that a Northwest classmate of mine secretly wrote to this official. He complained to this official about the marshal's tyranny, please have a look at it, Your Majesty.”
“Present.” The emperor reached out to take the booklet passed to him by the attendant and opened it very seriously.
The more he saw that was behind him, the more his eyebrows knitted together and he would sweep his gaze at Huo Zhengquan from time to time.
Yin Xu curled his lips, sighing to himself: As an emperor, the most important thing is to put on an act.
“Your majesty, this subject also has a musical composition.”
“What is it?”
“This subject would also like to impeach Marshal Huo.”
“What did you, an official of the Ministry of Rites, want to impeach him for?”
“This subject wanted to impeach the marshal's godson for not having the means to do so, and thus violating the late emperor's teachings. Not only would the etiquette not be good, it would also not tolerate the law.”
Yin Xu instantly noticed that more gazes fell on his body. He raised his head, and looked around blankly: “Why are all of you staring at me?”
“Puchi.” It was unknown who couldn't hold back his laughter, causing the atmosphere in the main hall to change.
The emperor laughed as he pointed at Yin Xu, “My love, the person you're talking about is Commander Huo?”
The official's face was filled with anger, “That's right! I believe everyone knows that Commander Huo has an unspeakable relationship with the Third Prince ... “
“Wait, what do you mean by ‘unspeakable?'” Yin Xu interrupted him and said very calmly: “Isn't it just because I have a good relationship with Third Prince that you want to beat me up?”
“Impudent!” Commander Huo, do you know how to write the three words, “justice, justice, honor, and shame”? “He actually spoke so calmly.”
“This young master really doesn't know how to write. Why don't you teach me? As for speaking frankly, this young master has always been one to take responsibility for his actions, and has never lost face.
The official did not argue with Yin Xu, but spoke out loudly: “Your Majesty, the late emperor has decreed that the Huo Family is not to be betrothed to the imperial family. Although this Huo Tian is a man, his relationship with the Third Prince has already violated this rule, this subject is worried that the late emperor will take precautions.”
“They aren't married. How can that count?” The emperor's face had already turned green, this man had impeached Huo Zhengquan's godson?
“But from what this subject knows, the Third Prince has already obtained the Marshal Huo's approval, it's just a short ceremony, this subject believes that the relationship between the two has already been established.”
“Is that true?” The emperor reprimanded Teng Yu, “Do you have something to say?”
Teng Yu slowly walked out, “Calm down Royal Father, this son has always been fond of Huo Tian, and has not been to the Royal Father for more than a day or two. He has also asked the Royal Father to bestow the marriage on him, this is something everyone knows, this son and Huo Tian are both men, it is impossible for them to have children, there will never be a situation that our ancestors are worried about.”
“His Highness's words are funny, just because you can't have any children doesn't mean that you can't have any children.”
“Of course not, Your Highness dare to swear to the heavens that besides Huo Tian, you will never touch a single finger of anyone else in this life, if not, I will be the one to die without descendants.”
“This ...” The crowd went into an uproar, obviously stunned by Teng Yu's vow.
However, there were also people who thought that if the Third Prince really did not touch any other women, it would be the end of their lives.
Some people were happy while others were sad.
It was impossible for the emperor to allow a prince without descendants to inherit the throne. It was obvious that the Third Prince was giving up that position.
Everyone could not help but be suspicious: [Is there really someone who would rather have beauties than rivers and mountains?]
Furthermore, beauties did not lay eggs, no matter how she thought about it, it was not worth it. Third Prince must be crazy!
