Chapter 269
Chapter 269 - Your Highness Something Terrible Has Happened
The sudden appearance of a young master in the Huo Family did not cause too much of a stir. With so many descendants of Huo Family, there was really no one who would place their eyes on a son who was born in an outer room.
Only Huo Yiloong was sullen for a while, as he felt that he had been made a fool of for no reason.
Mrs. Huo carried his new grandson to see Huo Zhengquan. She asked her to give him a name and told him that she was still raising him in her room.
Huo Zhengquan frowned as he looked at the timid brat, “I heard that you left that woman behind? What are you trying to do? ” Other people would be eager to have their mother leave their children in such a situation, so why was his wife so enthusiastic about letting them stay?
Mrs. Huo handed the child to him, “Don't you think that the mother and son pair have appeared at such a coincidental time? You don't come early or you don't come late, and yet, you come at such a time when our family has so many matters to attend to. “
Huo Zhengquan's eyes became serious, “Then I'll send someone to check it out.”
“Although our son loves to play, he shouldn't be so reckless. I don't believe that no one is scheming against him.” Mrs. Huo defended her son from the exit.
Huo Zhengquan declined to comment, but if this was really manmade, he had no choice but to treat it with caution.
“Why don't you just pay attention to the cause of this delivery? If you let it out and someone uses it, you will have to put in a lot of effort to deal with it.”
“Madam is right.” Just as Huo Zhengquan wanted to hold Madam's hand, the child in his arms suddenly cried loudly.
Huo Zhengquan had never hugged a child before, it was rare to see him hugging a grandson once, but he was still despised. He immediately passed the child to Mrs. Huo with a darkened face.
Mrs. Huo laughed as she coaxed the new grandson, “Alright, then I'll arrange people to look after that woman.”
At this time, the person waiting outside the Huo Mansion had not seen the woman being chased out for a long time and hurriedly ran back to report.
In the First Prince's residence, after hearing the report, the First Prince waved his hand and sent his men down. He thought about this matter at the beginning but did not expect it to be the end.
He had schemed for this child all those years ago, but had never thought of how to use him. He had only raised him in a manor in the outskirts of the capital.
They had originally thought that it would be a chess piece who caught everyone off guard with one move. They hadn't thought that he had underestimated the attitude of the Huo Family towards this kind of thing.
However, it was not as bad for the woman to be left behind. Huo Family's spies were not easy to arrange, and the people who were sent in with great difficulty were also cut off in this incident.
Huo Zhengquan did not mind keeping a few spies in his house, as long as it did not harm him, he could pass on the message freely.
Before Teng Yu left, he offered a plan to help Huo Zhengquan uncover the secrets of the letter.
“You want him to catch Huo Yidao's braids?” Yin Xu lied in the carriage, enjoying the glory of Third Prince fanning him personally.
“Of course, it's not good for any of us to say anything about this. This Highness is an outsider, but you …” It's just that the son he got off so cheaply is naturally not inferior to the Huo Yidao who grew up by his side. “
Yin Xu wanted to say that he didn't need to remind his about this matter, it was the same for anyone whether they were close or not.
“If you have two sons in the future, will you favor one of them?” Yin Xu suddenly asked.
Teng Yu was startled, then laughed and said: “This kind of assumption does not seem to have any meaning.” He didn't even have a son in his life, so where did these two come from?
Yin Xu facepalmed, “That's true.” A dejected mood enveloped the two of them.
Teng Yu hugged her in his arms and said in a low voice, “Even if you want to end your bloodline, you are not allowed to regret it!”
Yin Xu laughed, “These words should be said by this young master.” In his previous life, he had lived for a thousand years without ever having a son.
The two of them snuggled together, feeling each other's warmth and heartbeats. At the same time, they thought that it would be good if there was no one else who could interfere in their relationship.
After Yin Xu returned to the Third Prince Mansion, he first went to the backyard to look at his precious tree. After a few days, it had grown taller again.
“Teng …” He opened his mouth to ask Teng Yu to come and look, but the words were stuck at his mouth, so what if he showed it to him? He was not sure if this was the Spirit Nurturing Fruit tree, nor was he sure that he wouldn't be able to produce a child for Teng Yu.
Forget it, I'll just wait for the results.
Yin Xu set up a new Spirit Convergence Array around the tree, which was even larger than the previous one. The most direct reaction of the formation was for the people in the house to wake up early the next morning, and discovered that all the flowers, plants and trees in the Third Prince Mansion had unexpectedly withered overnight.
Great Master Han was so frightened that he scrambled into the Scenic Garden. Ignoring the ambiguous noises that were produced in the room, he knocked on the door noisily.
“Scram!” A furious roar came from inside the house. Only then did Han Sen calm down, but he still shouted out loud: “Your Highness, something bad happened.”
After a quarter of an hour of silence, the room's door was heavily pulled open. Teng Yu, wrapped in his outer garment, asked with a sullen face: “Has the sky caved in, or has the Huo Family been copied?”
“…” Manager Han took a step back and stammered, “Your Highness …” There's dirt in our house! “
Teng Yu reacted for a while before understanding what the so-called dirty things were, “Nonsense, there really is nothing dirty in this world, some of them were even designed by humans.”
“No …” “No, look at the flowers, plants, and trees in this courtyard …” Manager Han's face was sullen. “This is when the grass and trees are at their most flourishing, but …” But all the plants and vegetation in our manor have withered, and even the iron tree, which has the most tenacious life force, has turned yellow. “
Teng Yu looked up and realized that the Scenic Garden he was familiar with had changed greatly. All the plants in his yard were Evergreen Trees, even in winter, and now that they were like the northern wind, their leaves had turned yellow, the flowers had withered, and even their roots had popped out.
“What's going on?” Teng Yu walked out of the room and went under a tree. He only waved his hand a little, and the yellow leaves rustled down, covering his entire body.
“It was fine last night, but it turned out like this this this morning. Even if someone wanted to harm our house, it wouldn't be enough to vent our anger on these dead things!”
If there really was someone who was so capable of bringing disaster to this manor, then they would have long since died.
“Go ask someone on duty if anything unusual happened last night.”
“This servant has asked, nothing abnormal happened. On the other hand, a guard that went out to court the night felt a cold feeling, but he thought it was the night wind and didn't pay much attention to it.”
“Is everyone in the mansion panicking now?” Teng Yu could probably guess what everyone was thinking, this kind of unbelievable thing was everyone's first reaction was to think of the Gods and Demons.
However, Teng Yu did not believe it, and would naturally think that it was human, but in the end, who could do such a thing, and why spend so much effort to do it?
He really couldn't understand it no matter how much he thought about it.
Teng Yu returned to his room to change his clothes. Seeing that Yin Xu was already asleep due to exhaustion, he did not wake him up.
All the servants in the mansion started to move, searching for the source of the abnormality. However, after half a day, they still couldn't find anything.
“Your Highness, aside from the Scenic Garden, the rest have already been searched, and even the soil has been dug out for the old farmer to inspect. There's no problem, it's just that they said that the soil in our residence isn't fertile.”
“Where did you dig?” Teng Yu felt it was unbelievable. The mansion's ground that was growing trees and flowers was specially transported back from the suburbs, how could it not be fertile?
“It's the soil in the garden. Maybe the rare trees that we grew all these years were absorbing the nutrients.” Han Sen analyzed.
“Strange trees …” Something flashed past Teng Yu's mind, and then he suddenly stood up and strode towards the Scenic Garden.
Han Sen chased after him as he muttered, “I've been busy all morning. I don't know if the kitchen has prepared any food for Seventh Elder, but it's time for Seventh Elder to wake up.”
Following Teng Yu into the Scenic Garden, Han Sen discovered that his master did not enter the house, but went around to the backyard, because Yin Xu was sleeping, so he did not let anyone check on him. Furthermore, all the plants in the courtyard were dead, so there was nothing much to see.
Walking to the backyard, Teng Yu saw the precious tree with a glance. It was lush and verdant, with lush branches and luxuriant leaves.
Teng Yu laughed bitterly, “There's no need to find the reason, just get people to dig up all the flowers and trees in the mansion, don't plant new ones, and also get some fertile soil to replace them.”
Han Sen had yet to wake up from his stupor from the tree, and his reaction was slower by more than half a beat, “Your Highness … “This …”
Why was it that when all the plants in the manor were dead, this tree would grow even better?
Was this a demonic tree?
“Alright, from today onwards, no servants are allowed to enter and exit Scenic Garden s. Clean this room up yourself, send out heavy soldiers outside and guard this place. You are not allowed to tell anyone about the abnormality of this tree!”
Although Han Sen could not understand, he did not dare refute Teng Yu's decision as he muddle headed out.
