Demon Lord Gets Married

C49 – Soft Hand

Teng Yu moved his body, to make Yin Xu more comfortable lying down. This carriage was bought by the An County horse carriage, and because there was no time to change it, the two of them laid side by side, filling up the place.

Even though it was separated by a thick layer of clothes, Teng Yu could still feel a warm feeling from the area around his arms, while the tip of his nose was filled with a familiar fragrance that made one’s heart lurch.

“Huo Tian…”

Yin Xu only managed to react after a long time, and let out a “en” sound.

“When did you know about your past? When I first found out about it, did I ever hate it? “

Yin Xu recalled carefully, “I was very young, but I had no idea what Huo Family meant at that time, so there was nothing to resent. I remembered that I always had a housekeeper as my father.”

It wasn’t until three years ago that Huo Tian completely understood what kind of existence he was.

Yin Xu expressed his incomprehension. Cultivators had long lifespans, some old monsters had lived for thousands of years, and their children and grandchildren had accumulated many generations.

Moreover, cultivators rarely gave birth to their children through normal means, and they mostly nurtured the spirit infant with the blood essence and spirit fruit. There were even some Demonic Cultivator s that were specially nurtured for cultivation purposes, and the affection between master and disciple was not even comparable.

“Then who taught you this cultivation technique?” Is there really a martial art that does not require any inner force in this world? “

“Secret.” Yin Xu curled his lips, who said he did not have any Inner Qi? It was just that the Demonic Qi in his body was different from the inner force that was cultivated in this world.

Although Teng Yu was very curious, since Yin Xu didn’t say it, he had no other choice. However, there would be a day when he would be willing to speak his mind.

“Are we going to have to travel to the capital in the next half a month?” Yin Xu knocked on the wooden board of the horse carriage and sighed to himself: If only his high grade spirit ship was still here, then he could travel a thousand miles in the blink of an eye.

“With me here, how can I make you suffer? When we get to the next county, we’ll change it. “

Teng Yu’s words were extremely ambiguous, but the person who spoke did not have any ambiguous thoughts, and the person who listened to him did not understand Feng Yue. Thus, Yin Xu continued very naturally: “That’s good, otherwise, don’t blame me for breaking you apart midway!”

The rest of the journey was smooth sailing. When they arrived at the next prefecture palace, Teng Yu had indeed swapped to two large and comfortable carriages, which were even sponsored by the Prefect at no cost.

Teng Yu revealed his identity and walked forward, followed by 200 soldiers. Everywhere he went, officials of various sizes would kneel down and welcome him, eating delicacies and drinking nectar and jade dew, as well as endless salutes.

After walking for a while, Teng Yu announced Yin Xu’s identity as his “savior” to the entire road. As a result, Yin Xu took a lot of benefits as well, as his bag filled up more and more.

The officials of the various counties all welcomed Third Prince happily and sent him in with dejected and bitter expressions. Each of them had no choice but to tighten their belt for the new year as some of the more upright officials went to the imperial court and likened the places the Third Prince passed to locusts. It could be seen how greedy they were.

“Pah!” Inside the Hall of Announcements, the Emperor Dechang smashed a piece of Coiling Dragon Subduing Paper, and asked the official kneeling down with a cold expression: “Have you investigated the matter regarding the Liu State Monument?”

“…” “Never.” The Supreme Court official pressed his forehead to the cold ground, his entire body trembling. He did not dare to raise his head.

“Then, did you manage to find out about the attack on Third Prince?”

“…” “Never.” The Supreme Court official kowtowed three times and said in a domineering tone, “This subject has done something unfavorable. Please grant me the Emperor’s punishment!”

Someone stood out and said, “Your majesty, that stone tablet and official had examined it before. It was indeed something from ancient times, and the words on it weren’t new. Perhaps it really was a heavenly warning.”

There were also people who stood forward to defend Huo Family: “Your Majesty, Marshal Huo has put in a lot of effort and hard work. The joy of becoming a great pillar will stop at the Huo family. This kind of outrageous statement must have been set up by someone! “

The Emperor Dechang glanced at him coldly, then patted the table and said: “You don’t need to say that. Could it be that I am that wicked monarch? “

“The Emperor is wise.” The officials all lowered their heads.

When the stone tablet was revealed, the eight character proverbs written on it were already known to everyone. There were believers, and there were also disbelieving people, but regardless of whether it was true or false, the Huo Family had suffered a great loss.

It was a good thing that the Huo Family people had been closed up and had not come out. Otherwise, wouldn’t the imperial court be overturned by the Marshal Huo?

“Yuan Shangmian, I will give you ten more days. If you are still unable to find out the truth, you don’t need to wear this black hat!”

The Supreme Court’s blood ran cold as they bit their lips in agreement, “This subject obeys the decree!”

He really couldn’t speak with bitterness. It was rumored that this matter was related to the First Prince. The more he investigated, the more evidence pointed towards the First Prince. However, how could he take out evidence like this? Could it be that the First Prince had deliberately set up Marshal Huo? I’m afraid that before he could take out the evidence, he had already gone to see the King of Hell.

Besides, he was the First Prince’s supporter to begin with. It was too late for him to hide the evidence that was clearly against the First Prince, and even more so, he would not publicly announce it.

As for the matter of the Third Prince being attacked, it was even harder to say. This matter involved the Emperor’s family matters, how could he determine if it was not a matter with the Emperor himself?

Emperor Dechang rubbed his forehead and said fretfully: “These few days, I have been able to see Advice Letter s impeaching Third Prince. They say that he has some lustful and lustful people, some are bullying others, they say that he has more treasures to collect, how do their loved ones feel about this?”

Everyone looked at each other. The First Prince’s gaze flickered while the few officials who supported the Third Prince continued to lower their heads in silence.

Your majesty, the Third Prince is the son of a dragon and the grandson of a dragon. It’s only right for them to live a luxurious life,” a purple robed official said after a while. “Your majesty, the Third Prince is the grandson of a dragon and the grandson of a dragon. As for taking their belongings, I heard that Third Prince Mansion does not lack for money as the warehouse expanded again and again, so why would you go and take their money?

The officials who supported the Third Prince secretly cursed: “Old thief!” On the surface, these words were out as a punishment for the Third Prince, but in reality, it had the reputation of bullying others just because of his extravagance.

and even specially mentioned the expansion of the Third Prince Mansion warehouse, didn’t he mean to remind the emperor that you gave too many things each time?

“Your majesty, this subject thinks the Right Prime Minister’s words are reasonable. Third Prince is still young, and this is the first time he’s travelled so far, and he even encountered some shocks along the way.

“Oh? According to what you guys said, not only did Third Prince fail to do so, we should also punish those officials who went on stage as well? ” Emperor Dechang was expressionless, without any signs of joy or anger.

The palace sounded out one after another, “His Majesty the Emperor is enlightened!” Praise.

Only the officials of the Third Prince stood and watched intently, neither explaining nor joining in. Before this, the Third Prince had already said that no matter how much the court discussed about him, they could not act rashly.

Emperor Dechang clenched his fists, he swept his eyes across the officials in the palace and became even more furious.

This was a good official that he had groomed. He was not dead yet, and all of them were already supporting the First Prince. Although he had groomed the First Prince as his successor and would pass on the position to him after a hundred years, wasn’t he being a little too impatient?

When this matter came out, even if he was unable to snatch the military power of the Huo Family, he could still cause the Huo Family to be obstructed by rumors and not dare to make any big movements.

However, after the assassination of his third son, he had no choice but to ponder deeply. What was his eldest son’s motive for doing all of this?

If the former was for the same purpose as himself, then what about the latter? If he thought about the blood brother now, would the next step be to get rid of him?

In the blink of an eye, his eldest son was already over twenty years old and he was not yet in his prime. Without some accident, he could have lived another twenty or thirty years. How could an ambitious prince wait so long?

This kind of thing like coercing the palace to usurp the position of a prince had existed since ancient times, no one could blame Emperor Dechang for overthinking it. He felt that it was because he had placed too much importance on Teng Yi these past few years, causing his wings to stiffen.

That year, in order to restrict the Liu Family, he greatly increased the number of people in the Yun Family. Now that the Liu Family had fallen, the Yun Family had become a huge problem in his heart.

It was true that the Emperor Dechang liked the Imperial Consort Yun, and it was also fine that he liked his eldest son.

Looks like it’s time for him to cultivate his other two sons. With them restraining him, he can also make Teng Yi and his Yun Family a little more restrained.

“Lai Jiquan, pass down our orders, order the Third Prince to return to the capital within five days. It’s going to be the new year soon, what’s the standard of procrastinating on the road?”

An old eunuch with a head full of white hair bowed his back and walked out. He waved his horsetail whisk and replied, “Yes.”

Teng Yu pushed the box that he had just received in front of Yin Xu and said generously: “Old rules, you choose first.”

Yin Xu did not stand on ceremony with him and invited Wu Sheng and the butler to pick out the items. He knew that Teng Yu did not take these items seriously.

At least, the master and servant duo had already identified Teng Yu as their partner. Of course, the partner was only defined as Yin Xu himself, and Wu Sheng and the butler were only treating him as their master.

When Yin Xu opened the box, what entered his vision was a set of golden lights that were awkwardly carved into a beautiful golden crown. In the middle, there was an oval shaped piece of jade, looking extremely rich and powerful.

However, this golden crown was too extravagant and beautiful, but it wasn’t very practical. If someone were to wear it, they would have to spend a lot of effort to protect their own head.

Yin Xu measured the depth of the box and found that there was more than one level to the box. After removing the first level, there were some small things scattered on the second level: jade pendants, cat’s eye stones, and even jewelry worn by women. It was scattered all over the place.

He picked out all the Jade Attributes, played with them and appraised them one by one. Finally, he gave two Jade Deals that had no spirit energy to Wu Sheng and the butler, and gathered the rest in front of him.

The butler and Wu Sheng looked ashamed. They reminded him quietly: “Young Master, it’s enough now.”

Every time they saw their master pick up the jade like picking up vegetables, the butler and Wu Sheng would always sweat profusely, afraid that they would be despised by the Third Prince.

Why didn’t they realize that their young master loved money so much? But that’s also not right. Looking at how he loves only jade and doesn’t care about other treasures, is it just a personal hobby?

Yin Xu found a cloth bag and swept all the jade on the table into it. Then, he closed the bag and threw it into the butler’s arms, “Please keep it for me.”

Teng Yu drank his tea slowly, not commenting on his actions. It was probably because Yin Xu picked things up too casually, and did not seem greedy at all. Therefore, it was not annoying.

Yin Xu rolled his eyes, pointing to the golden crown on the first floor, he asked: “You probably won’t wear this, right?”

Teng Yu thought he liked it and shook his head, “If you want it, then take it.”

Yin Xu flung the golden crown in his hand and curled his lips: “Don’t, the brilliant golden ugliness is dead, I only want the stone in the middle.”

As he spoke, he used his hand to directly button off the piece of jade and threw the rest of the gold crown to the side.

Teng Yu’s eyes twitched, he immediately knew that this golden crown was the work of Master Jin Tao. In the whole pavilion, it was something that could only be found and not sought, unexpectedly there was someone who destroyed this priceless work of art without even blinking his eyes.

“How much do you like rocks?” Along the way, everything that he needed to touch with the jade was taken away by Yin Xu. Even if he didn’t want it, he gave it to the servants as a reward, but he actually did not leave a corner for Teng Yu.

“Even if you like it, you can’t say. It’s just that you don’t like the white and yellow stuff. It’s still better to look at the stones.” In Yin Xu’s eyes, gold and silver were dead objects with no value at all.

Previously, when Teng Yu had placed a hundred silver bills together with a golden Buddha together for Yin Xu to choose from, he had chosen the former without hesitation.

Do not think that the Demon Lord was being polite and did not choose to be expensive, but from his point of view, silver notes could be used to buy things, and the golden Buddha would not be of any use at all.

Oh, Demon Lord still doesn’t know that gold is currency, but even if he does, he would probably choose the former because it’s very convenient to carry silver notes.

Yin Xu pushed the remaining stuff in front of Teng Yu, and the two brothers patted Teng Yu’s shoulders, “Don’t worry, your hands are weak. I won’t let you lose anything.”

Teng Yu glanced at the contents of the box and smiled at Han Sen, telling him to put it away. He could tell with a glance that there was still a third level to the box, it should be for banknotes or something, but since the other party did not discover it, he did not plan to say it explicitly.
