Chapter 252
Chapter 252 - Seventh Brother must Have Been Born of the Wrong Sex
In the evening, two people came to the Third Prince Mansion. They said that they were there to serve Seventh Young Master Huo on a daily basis, and since the Seventh Young Master was going to live in the Huo Family, then there would naturally be someone habitually waiting on by their side.
The other party had let them go without even asking who it was. In his opinion, the crux of the problem for his son and the Third Prince was on them, so unless they were willing, no one should be able to separate them.
Marshal Huo had many sons in his life, and the only ones who were truly promising were his eldest son and his seventh son, who he had never taught since he was young. And to be fair, his seventh son was even better.
Since Yin Xu had nothing to do in the Huo Family, he directly went to meditate after returning to the house, and only stopped when there was a knock on the door.
“Come in.”
The door was pushed open, and a familiar voice came in first, “Young Master, it's time to eat.”
Yin Xu's brows twitched, he looked at the two people who walked in, one in front and one behind, and then stuck out his small head, “Why are you two here?” He thought that Teng Yu would send him two guards.
“Young Master doesn't welcome the two of us?” Zuo Shaotang asked miserably.
Yin Xu was too lazy to bicker with him and asked attendant who was following behind him to leave the courtyard: “Didn't you go to the ocean? You're back so soon? “
“I came back first because there was something I needed to do.” Zuo Shaotang sneaked a peek at Xiao Feng, but seeing that he was indifferent, the corner of his mouth twitched imperceptibly.
“I know. I heard that Protector Zuo was selected by the princess of that country overseas and wanted to forcibly take him back as a consort. However, when Protector Zuo was unhappy, he fled.” Wang Ren exposed.
“What are you talking about? This Protector clearly returned first to escort a shipment of goods back. You think you can keep me in such a small country? “
Zuo Shaotang was also unlucky. After just going to the ocean, he had been given the chance to be a hero and save the beauty. In the end, the beauty had decided to fall in love with him.
If it was only a normal beauty, Zuo Shaotang could have just rejected his. However, she was still a local princess and held the military power.
He thought that things that happened so far away wouldn't spread far, but in the end, there was also a merchant from Big Dipper trading at that time. Zuo Shaotang's name was spread far and wide in Jiangnan due to the company he set up, and after the merchant returned, he told this matter to his friends as a joke.
Word spread quickly in Jiangnan, and naturally, the people from Evil Sect knew about it.
Especially after they heard that the whatever princess snatched the person back and even pressed Left Protector on the bed before they even went to pay their respects, they were so shocked that a large portion of their Evil Sect toppled over.
After Yin Xu finished listening to the story, he smiled and looked at Zuo Shaotang's dejected expression and then at the expressionless Xiao Feng. He felt that the two of them might still be struggling.
He called Wang Ren in front of him and asked him how he had been cultivating and how he had control over the array formation.
Zuo Shaotang was hurt once, he looked at his Master and disciple, and asked, “If the masters of this world were like the Sect Leader, then I'm afraid they would not be able to win against Lan Yu.”
“Master is very good.” Young Master Wang continued to defend his master.
“Tch, other than letting you comprehend it for yourself, what else did he teach you? You're the only one who would be so foolish as to think that he's a master. “
If looks could kill, Zuo Shaotang would have been covered in holes, “How do I raise my disciples, do I need you to command me? “Pay attention to your identity!”
“Yes, yes!” Zuo Shaotang cupped his hands in apology.
Yin Xu rolled his eyes and asked lightly: “When you went back to see Teng Yu, what kind of expression did he have?”
The three of them were stunned for a moment, and it was Wang Ren who answered first, “I'm not very happy.”
“How do you know?”
“Because His Highness's smile is very ugly, and it's different from usual.”
Yin Xu frowned. In his heart, he was thinking, if Teng Yu really took Huo Zhengquan's words to heart, he didn't know whether or not he would dive straight into the heart of the ox.
What made him even more conflicted was that he was actually a little afraid of Teng Yu's answer.
Yin Xu lost his mood for a moment, “Let's not talk about this anymore, go find a room to sleep in next door.”
Coincidentally, the butler happened to be the one who had come personally to invite Yin Xu for a meal in the hall. It was said that everyone had arrived and were waiting for him.
The Huo Family family's rules were big, and dinner was usually eaten together. Only when everyone was ready to eat at the table, did they remember that there was an extra person at home, so they could only put down their chopsticks and wait.
When Yin Xu walked into the hall, he received gazes from all directions, some had good intentions, some had evil intentions.
Yin Xu sat down on the vacant seat, looking straight ahead, he heard Huo Zhengquan's deep voice, “Let's start with the chopsticks.”
After eating the entire meal, Yin Xu stopped after seeing that he had only eaten two mouthfuls of his favorite dish, causing the butler to be frightened out of his wits.
“Seventh Young Master, is the food not to your liking?”
“En, it's bad.” Yin Xu nodded seriously, which caused the rest to pause for a moment.
Huo Family s were all practitioners of martial arts. The table was basically filled with meat and vegetables, but the ladies and mistresses did not have any favorite pastries.
“This servant has been negligent, I wonder what Seventh Young Master likes to eat? This servant will have people do it. “
Without waiting for Yin Xu's answer, Huo Zhengquan started speaking first, “There's no need, what's there to eat? How can the disciples of my Huo Family be so delicate and expensive?” On the battlefield, it was already good to have something to eat.
Huo Zhengquan firmly believed that the fault with his picky food was something that the Third Prince was used to, and would naturally not tolerate.
Yin Xu shrugged his shoulders indifferently, “Just eat yours, don't worry about me.”
“Seventh Brother is probably not used to simple food like Huo Family because he is accustomed to it. I heard that Third Prince is the most extravagant and that the chefs in the manor change their chefs one after the other. If not satisfied, they would even kill people, to the point where there are even more chefs in Third Prince Mansion than the imperial chefs.”
Yin Xu slanted his eyes at Huo Yidao, “Do you believe this? “I heard that second brother is the smartest person in the family. I never thought that he couldn't even see through such a small matter. No wonder …”
No wonder what? Everyone knew that the second sentence was definitely not a good one. They all lowered their heads to eat.
Just at this time, another person came out to report that Third Prince had delivered something to Seventh Young Master.
“I just gave it to someone just now, and now I'm giving it to them. Does Third Prince treat Seventh Brother as someone who hasn't stopped drinking milk?”
Only then did Yin Xu know that it was a box of food. Inside were exquisite pastries, which Yin Xu liked to eat everyday.
All of the males present had their teeth aching from seeing so many sweets, and even their gazes towards Yin Xu were abnormal.
Huo Yidao shook his head and lamented: “You always love to eat these, no wonder you like men. Brother, you probably gave birth to the wrong gender.”
Yin Xu was very curious about his performance today. Previously, when Huo Yidao saw that he was acting in a gentle and gentle manner, he always felt that he was too deliberate when suddenly attacking him.
“Shut up, what are you saying?” Huo Yiming showed the look of an elder brother, and scolded him.
“Am I wrong? Do you want a brother married off? Our Huo Family cannot afford to lose such a person. “
The brothers that were married off really did seem to be a little incapable of accepting this. The few brothers in Huo Family all revealed looks of disdain.
“Who said that she would definitely get married?” Huo Zhengquan slapped the table, “Since you have eaten, get off the table.”
Huo Yidao's eyes flashed, after pondering over and over again over these words, he suddenly had an unexpected thought, if he did not marry out, would he still be marrying into his? The opponent was a prince.
After a meal, Huo Zhengquan called his eldest son into his study and told him that he would be taking care of the family for the next three days.
“Father, do you really want to oppose until the end?” The Huo Yiming asked worriedly.
“What is it? “Can you agree?”
Huo Yiming shook his head, “But I'm afraid that with Seventh Brother's personality, he will break all ties with us.”
“The Huo Family is not something that must be done by him.”
“But whether it is in terms of martial arts or strategy, he has surpassed me. Next year will be the election of the successor. Seventh Brother will definitely win.”
“Disturbance for the mediocre! Your seventh brother's ability is strong, but with his personality, he's not suitable for taking charge, much less leading the troops into battle.
“You also heard that he went to the southwest. Although he won, what do you think he relied on?”
“One person's martial arts and that mysterious formation.” Huo Yiming said.
Huo Zhengquan nodded his head, “That's right, he relies on his own strength, it's just as Third Prince said, he can fight an entire army by himself, but our Huo Family needs marshals and not soldiers that can charge and fight. He is not qualified, do you understand?”
Huo Yiming lowered his head, “Maybe Seventh Brother still has other abilities that he has not used yet. He is smart, and military strategies might not be impossible for him. Maybe he just thinks that it's more convenient for him to take action faster.”
Huo Yiming said that he would first shake his head and reject it. If Yin Xu was really that powerful, then he could only say that he was no longer a normal person.
“I've already asked Qixin. Along the way, he didn't display any ability to lead soldiers to war. If he didn't intentionally hide it well, he probably wouldn't have understood.”
