Demon Lord Gets Married

Chapter 289 - Let Me Go down and Celebrate?

On the second day, the Advice Letter that had impeached Yin Xu was still floating into the palace like snowflakes.

Someone quipped, “My lords, were you unable to get up because of last night's torture of phoenixes and red candles?”

Of course, there were also some who thought that their lord was sick because of Yin Xu, and would make such a joke at such a young age, it would be weird if he wasn't.

In reality, the ministers were neither unable to get up nor were they sick. They were too ashamed to go out.

“Why is the imperial court so quiet today?” Nothing to start with? ” The His Highness The Crown Prince sat upright beside the Dragon Throne of Chengde Hall. After half a month of maintenance, the hall had become even more magnificent.

The officials thought to themselves: “Your Highness, are you blind? What do you want us to say when you can't even see so many Advice Letter?”

“Since there's nothing else, let's withdraw.” After Teng Yu finished, he got up and prepared to leave.

A young official quickly stepped forward, “Your Highness, this humble subject has a starter.”

“Oh? I remember you, you are the prideful disciple of the Inferior Prime Minister. ” Teng Yu said indifferently.

All the ministers present lowered their heads. Some could not help but smile in a gloating manner, while others silently mourned this young man.

“Yes.” The young official was stunned for a moment, and his expression turned ugly.

“What do you want to play?” Teng Yu was in a listening position, his attitude was extremely good, as though he was just casually asking a question.

That youth was somewhat hesitant, but remembering what his teacher had told him last night, he braced himself and said, “The Emperor bestowed the wedding to His Highness. Although the date of the wedding hasn't been stated, His Highness has passed his years and should conclude the wedding as soon as possible.”

“Oh? “The wedding is over …” Of course, Teng Yu wanted to as well, but at the moment, the imperial government was not stable yet, the emperor was still “gravely ill”, and the father and son duo were still in the south exterminating bandits and could not return. There were too many variables, he did not want anything to happen during their wedding ceremony.

“Yes, the emperor is very ill. His Highness should finish the marriage as soon as possible. Since ancient times, there has been a celebration going on. Perhaps the emperor heard of the happy occasion and recovered from it.”

“You want me to go and make it a show?” The corner of Teng Yu's mouth twitched, he felt that this young man had quite the guts.

He wasn't the only one who thought so. All the ministers present also looked at him once more, silently praising him for his courage!

“This humble subject does not mean that, but as a person's child, it is only right to make love to his parents.”

“What else?” Teng Yu did not believe that they would be so concerned about his marriage with Yin Xu.

Sure enough, the young man continued, “Since Commander Huo wants to marry the imperial family, his official position cannot be preserved. Not only that, he should also focus on the backyard and not show himself outside.”

Someone, who was sleeping lazily in the palace, sneezed. He rolled over, hugged his blanket, and continued sleeping.

“…” The ministers' expressions were all different, but the civil officials were mostly supportive. Since ancient times, no one had ever heard of a princess holding an important position and appearing in public.

Of course, since ancient times, no one had ever heard of a princess consort being a man.

Teng Yu's expression became very strange. He asked in disbelief, “What you mean is … for Huo Tian to be locked up in the backyard all the time to raise flowers? “

There would only be Yin Xu in his backyard, what else could he do other than raise flowers?

“This humble subject has another matter to discuss …” “According to the etiquette system, His Highness The Crown Prince should have a main wife, four secondary wives, and several concubines. Now that the position of main wife has been decided, the Ministry of Rites should pick the appropriate beautiful girls for Your Highness to fill up the backyard of the crown prince's mansion as soon as possible.”

Teng Yu suddenly laughed, the laughter carried a different meaning, “So that's how it is, what you said makes sense.”

He felt that there was no need for His Highness to refute him at all. With the etiquette system, even if he didn't mention today, others would still bring it up, not to mention that there were still a few more women in the family.

Of course, in the eyes of the officials, as long as His Highness could take the first step, the second step of giving birth would be natural. After all, there were a few men who would marry someone without even touching them.

“Your Highness is wise. This old official thinks that what the Minister of Rites said makes a lot of sense. The Emperor's dragon body is ill, and the palace needs such a joyous event.”

“Yes, if Your Highness doesn't like the beautiful ladies chosen by the Ministry of Rites, then this subject will do his best to find suitable women in the people for you to choose from.”

When they saw that Teng Yu did not get angry, and was even showing signs of being moved, they jumped out one after another to add fuel to the fire. In the end, they had dug out all the gold that the officials had left to pay for their age.

“Seems like all my beloved beauties are very free, to think that they even know whose family has a few daughters.” The corners of Teng Yu's mouth raised slightly, but his eyes revealed a cold look, too bad the officials next to him could not see it.

“Since everyone has the same opinion, then I shall directly call out your name …” I heard that there is a granddaughter in the Inferior Prime Minister family who has a bewitching charm, a wise and gentle appearance, and a famed beauty in the capital. I will not choose anymore and choose a day to send the Prime Minister's daughter to the Crown Prince Palace.

“…” Everyone was stunned. They never thought that their highness would be so unreasonable as to let the granddaughter of a first rank official be their concubine. It was fortunate that he could say that the daughter of the prime minister was enough to become the crown prince's consort.

Furthermore, after hearing his words, they told the Board of Rites to choose a day to send a person into the residence without any ceremony. If these words were to spread to Inferior Prime Minister, he was afraid that the old man would faint again.

Now, everyone could tell that not only were the political opinions of the Inferior Prime Minister and the His Highness The Crown Prince at odds, the relationship between them was also very tense.

Everyone began to sympathize with Inferior Prime Minister, when he ascended the throne, he would inevitably sit on a cold bench.

This old man was getting more and more muddle-headed. No matter who he fought against, he would never be able to fight against the future emperor.

However, some people guessed that the reason her Highness was making things difficult for the Inferior Prime Minister was because the Emperor had once bestowed the Prime Minister's granddaughter to Huo Qi.

Oh, what a headache it was!

Of course, there were many people who were ready to make a move, if the position of Inferior Prime Minister was vacated, would he be able to fight for it?

When the time came, the officials of this generation of monarchs, who could stand firmly in this temple, would be the final winners.

In order to win the favor of the His Highness The Crown Prince, he had to first not make His Highness unhappy with the matter of the Crown Prince's consort. Many ministers who wanted to speak out kept their mouths shut.

Just as everyone was giving their condolences to the Inferior Prime Minister, Teng Yu suddenly added, “However, the matters of the mansion's backyard should be left to the future Crown Princess. If the Inferior Prime Minister's granddaughter wants to enter, he has to get the permission of the Crown Prince Concubine.

Everyone's faces alternated between white and green. Their moods were fluctuating. After talking for so long, they had finally returned to the original point. If the would-be Crown Princess consented, they could bring the man to the Palace.

All the women in the world wanted to be magnanimous and decent, and many of them were concubines for their husbands. Otherwise, they would easily be put under the label of “jealous”, but Seventh Young Master Huo was not one of these women.

At this time, Yin Xu still did not know that he had already become the main topic of the morning assembly. When he woke up, Teng Yu had already changed into a new court uniform and was sitting in the house looking at the Advice Letter s.

He supported his aching waist and wrapped himself in a thin layer of cloth. He got off the bed and laid on Teng Yu's lap as he watched him.

“What's wrong? Hurry up and go wash up, I got someone to send us breakfast. “

Yin Xu simply sat on his lap, leaned on his chest and looked at the Advice Letter together, “Why do I have to decide on everything? Did you finish reading it? “

Teng Yu then used a hand to rub his waist, “Most of the cabinet would first approve of it, I just need to take a look, if there are any unreasonable points, then I will correct them.”

If the Emperor were to pass out, these Advice Letter s could be ignored. As long as the Cabinet and the six Tribes were still operating, the world would not be thrown into chaos.

However, Teng Yu did not plan to become a fainting monarch. Since it was just the beginning, he could naturally read as much as he wanted.

He brought the Advice Letter in front of Yin Xu and explained in detail: “See, there was a flood in Chang Shun County, in the south. He requested the imperial government to order the relief for the flood.

“Well, then?”

“Do you know how much a stone's worth of rice is?”

Yin Xu shook his head. He naturally did not know, he did not even know how the rice was made.

When we went to the Hui State to relieve the calamities, I paid attention to these things. The southern region is a land of fish and rice, the price of food is lower than the northern region, there is also more adjustable food in the vicinity, there is no need to pay money from the national treasury. But those officials do not care about these, the price of rice has not changed for decades, and the amount of silver is the highest, so we do not even know how many of them have fallen into the hands of corrupt officials.

Yin Xu thought, this was normal, he had to bitterly study for so many years before he finally made his mark, you can't let him live a life of suffering, the salary of an official was not high enough to support a large family, thus they could only fish for silver from other places.

Teng Yu saw the look on his face and understood what he was thinking, he forcefully pressed him on the back of his waist, “Clearing out the imperial court is very difficult, even without a corrupt official, it is impossible. I do not care about those who use my authority to do business, and those who accept bribes to a certain extent can be accepted, but those who dare to make a move against me, cannot be let go of even a single one!”
