Chapter 288
Chapter 288 - It must be Well-bred
The guards brutally smashed open the doors to the Prime Minister's estate, tore down the doorways, and drove the carriage straight into the Prime Minister's estate.
“Who are you people?” How dare he barge into the Prime Minister's Residence in broad daylight? “Someone, come …”
Without a word, the guards drove the carriage inside. Those who dared to step forward and block the way all whipped the carriage, stopping only after they came to a stop in front of a wide and flat patio.
With a ‘bang', Yin Xu jumped down from the car door and said to the dumbstruck servant: “I'm here, why aren't you going to inform your Master, tell him that I'm here to deliver the gift.”
“Ho…” Seventh Young Master Huo… “
“Yo, you know this young master?”
The servant nodded and sighed, “This Young Master was about to become their Young Master, how could I not recognize him?”
At this time, Inferior Prime Minister was drawing flowers and birds in the courtyard. In the birdcage hung on the side, there was an eighth brother who was happily singing.
His days had not been too good recently. He thought that he would be able to show off his skills after being overseen by the crown prince. Who knew that he would not even be able to adopt a few policies and instead be slapped in the face.
Thus, he gathered a few old officials and his own students and climbed onto the Advice Letter, and requested for the sake of his son, and for the time being, they had to take in an imperial concubine.
He did not believe that a young crown prince would openly oppose that old official.
He didn't want to touch His Highness' bad luck today, so he simply took sick leave and waited for news at home to vent his anger.
“Master… Master… ‘This is bad … ‘ The butler ran into the yard, panting, his old bones on the verge of falling apart.
“What's wrong? But what news has come out from the palace? “
“No …” It's a guest at home. “
Inferior Prime Minister was just about to give the birds on the painting some pointers when he said without thinking, “What's wrong with that? However, this old man went on sick leave today and did not see any guests.
“It's the Seventh Young Master Huo. He said he's here to give you a present!”
“Huo Tian? What gift did he come to give? The two families did not interact in private. “
“Yes, I brought several carriages with me. Please go and take a look!” The steward was on the verge of tears. This young master had his men tear down the door of the Prime Minister's residence. How could this be a gift? He was here to cause trouble!
However, he didn't dare to say these words to the prime minister.
Inferior Prime Minister thought for a moment, then dropped a drop of ink on the tip of his brush, destroying the entire painting.
He threw the ball of flowers on the ground, threw down his pen and said, “Then let's go and see what tricks he can pull.”
It was obvious that the Inferior Prime Minister didn't think this grandfather would actually gift him a gift.
He walked towards the front hall with large strides. Inferior Prime Minister was stunned the moment he arrived.
From the way these women spoke and acted, it could be seen that they weren't from a good family.
Inferior Prime Minister's eyes went dim, he was so angry that white smoke rose from his head.
“Look, this painting must have been left behind by that famous painter from the previous dynasty. It must be real!”
“How do you know?”
“Of course. Of course it was Young Master Liu who told me. He's a scholar who knows everything.”
“Hmph, it's not like you know what he knows. What are you so proud of?”
“Hehe, I know you're envious of me for having such an elegant husband, but unlike you, you always serve those fat old men.”
“You …”
In the midst of a group of dancing devils, Yin Xu leisurely sat on the seat of honor, drinking tea and eating snacks, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
“Nonsense!” Inferior Prime Minister could not bear it any longer and rushed in, and asked straightforwardly: “Huo Tian, what do you mean by this? These… “These …” What was this stuff!?
“Yoh, master, you've come. I've heard that you've gotten sick, and I just happened to return to the capital to see you. From the looks of it, you seem to be quite ill.” He couldn't even speak properly.
“You … Is this the posture of someone visiting a patient? “
“Of course, I'm here with a present.” Yin Xu winked at him, “Look at how old you are, and how you worry about the country all this time. You really have put in a lot of effort, why don't you enjoy your blessings as soon as possible?”
“Seventh Young Master does not need to worry. I have a very strong body, I can still do something for the imperial government!”
“So it's like that …” Yin Xu asked indifferently: “I heard that you only have a granddaughter?”
When he mentioned this, the Inferior Prime Minister flew into a rage again. His granddaughter was about to become the joke of the entire capital.
Even though he didn't want to be married to the Huo Family at all, he didn't know that the emperor would take back the imperial edict. Since ancient times, this was the first time this kind of thing had happened, and he didn't even know where to put his face.
“So what?” The Inferior Prime Minister asked angrily.
Yin Xu laughed, “Junior was in a rush and intentionally gave you a big gift to solve your big problem!”
“What gift?” Inferior Prime Minister looked at the women in the room and had a bad premonition.
“Of course I'm going to give you a beauty that can help you!” Yin Xu casually grabbed a lady and pushed her in front of Inferior Prime Minister, “What do you think about this one? “With a big chest and a big butt, you will definitely be raised well!”
The girl secretly rolled her eyes and thought to herself: This Lord Prime Minister can already be her grandfather. The one who can't be raised properly is him!
“You … Nonsense! This is nonsense! ” Inferior Prime Minister was so angry that his eyes rolled up and he almost fainted.
“Sigh, the reproduction of this descendant is a great matter, and if you don't work hard, you will have no future!” “Sigh, the reproduction of this descendant is a great matter, and if you don't work hard, you will have no future!”
This time, Inferior Prime Minister understood the reason for his visit. The reason was because of his share of the Advice Letter, he hatefully said: “This is my master's family matter, there is no need for you to worry!”
“Oh? Master said that. Then why do you care about other people's family matters? There's a saying that goes …” “You are only allowed to set fire to the state and not to light any lanterns, right?”
“How can it be the same!?” The royal family had no family matters to deal with. His Highness' son was related to the continent. Could it be that his highness would be left empty-handed even after he ascended the throne? “Then who should I hand over to in a hundred years' time?”
“Anyway, you won't be able to see it with your eyes closed, so why bother so much?” Yin Xu was all smiles, without showing any sign of anger.
“You disrespectful child! That is a national affair, how can you all act recklessly! ” Inferior Prime Minister put on a “righteous front” and scolded Yin Xu.
“If Marshal Huo isn't home, this old man will help him teach this ignorant child of yours a lesson!”
“Heh, what a great face you have!” If Yin Xu hadn't remembered that Teng Yu had said that no one would be killed, he would have thrown this old man into the sewer.
“Let's return to the main topic at hand. Choose one of this gift. Quickly, junior still has to walk to the next one. It's because of your great hard work that I'm willing to let you choose first.”
Inferior Prime Minister glared at him fiercely a few times, “What nonsense! Take these dirty things away! Don't pollute this old man's land! “
Yin Xu frowned, “Could it be that you want the emperor to bestow a marriage decree so you are willing to accept it?”
“I've heard that the Prime Grandmaster has a deep affection for his wife and hasn't taken in a concubine for so many years. If the imperial edict were to grant her a marriage, wouldn't your wife have to give up the throne?”
“Ridiculous! What marriage? What next? “Nonsense!”
“Sigh …” Yin Xu let out a long sigh, pushed a girl into his embrace and said in a low voice: “Prime Minister, I advise you to take this beauty in as soon as possible so that you can help the Prime Minister open her mouth. Otherwise, you just have to wait until tomorrow to receive the imperial edict.”
“Even if the emperor is seriously ill, it's impossible for him to be fooling around with you. Tomorrow, this old man will go to the palace and ask the emperor if there's such a ridiculous matter!”
“How can this be nonsense? This junior was concerned about your Prime Minister's inheritance of incense and sent you a beautiful woman. There are many officials who would not be able to beg for her help, so why don't you go to the palace and ask for her help, and see who will say that it's ridiculous! “
Gifting beauties to subjects was too common. How could the emperor care about such matters? Furthermore, even if the emperor wanted to, he could not.
Yin Xu saw that the Inferior Prime Minister's face had turned green, he could not even catch a breath, in order to prevent angering others to death, he waved his hand, “Since the Prime Minister has accepted the gift, then we will take our leave.
“You … Huo Tian!… “
“Ah …” “Old master, old master, what's wrong? Someone come quickly, go get a doctor …”
Ignoring the chaos behind them, Yin Xu swaggered away with his men.
In the next half day, many ministers of the capital received a bully in their homes, forcing them to have a woman in fireworks. They even said that he had specially invited this girl back, and that he was certain that she would give birth to a fat boy every year.
If it was a young official or woman, she would have accepted it. If she didn't like it, she could just send it out the next day.
But the people Yin Xu sought out were all pedantic old officials, these people, no matter how lustful and disorderly they were in private, all maintained their decent appearance, so they were naturally unwilling to accept them.
In the beginning, Yin Xu would still argue with them, until people had no choice but to accept them. But in the end, when his throat was dry and he lost all patience, he just threw them on the beds of those old officials, trying to coerce and coax them.
How dare he not accept! Alright, when your family is finished tomorrow, this young master will send the person over!
The ministers were all angry to the point that their heads were about to burst. This goddamned Huo Qi was the pet of the His Highness The Crown Prince. Who knew if he would actually do such a evil thing.
He can't be provoked!
