Demon Lord Gets Married

Chapter 164 - No One Can Envy You

“Did he openly defy the decree?” The Emperor glowered at the kneeling eunuch with a gloomy expression.

“Yes, Third Prince heard that this servant went to announce the marriage ceremony and didn't even see her face. She let this servant kick this servant out.” The eunuch raised his head slightly, revealing a swollen face. His eyes seemed to be avoiding her gaze.

“How audacious!” The Emperor laughed in his anger and waved him off, then roared out: “Men, go recruit Huo Tian into the palace, become the commander in front of the palace, and actually did not count for even a day, go against him!”

He wanted to see exactly how far his good son could go for the sake of the Huo Family brat!

When Yin Xu received the order, he remembered that he still had another official position. Furthermore, it was not a fake title like Duke Wayne had previously, but one that required roll call every day on duty.

His official uniform, the Inner Palace, had been delivered long ago, and it was still brand-new, not worn once.

Teng Yu watched him change into his official uniform with shining eyes. He wore a dark blue official's uniform with a wide belt and scarlet cape.

Yin Xu did not really care about wearing clothes, but he insisted on wearing them comfortably. Normally, clothes were made by his household's tailor, whether it was style or craftsmanship, there was nothing special about it.

“Shall I go with you?” Teng Yu was truly unwilling to allow Yin Xu to enter the palace alone.

Yin Xu stood up straight, allowing Teng Yu to help him tidy up his belt and collar, he hung up the jade talisman representing his identity, “If you accompanied me there, it will only give rise to more thoughts in the Emperor's mind, so I won't have a good time anymore.”

“But I don't want you to!” Teng Yu reached out his arms and hugged his waist, his chin rested on his shoulder, “I'm just afraid that you'll be bullied after entering the palace!”

“It's not up to them to bully me.” Yin Xu pushed the person aside, smoothed out the wrinkles on his chest, flung his cape, and walked out with his head held high.

Teng Yu immediately chased after him and sent him to the entrance of the palace. He even ordered some people to pass words to the spies in the palace to ensure Yin Xu's safety no matter what.

There were countless experts in the palace, and none of the Dark Guard s around the emperor were pushovers. No matter how powerful Yin Xu was, he would not be able to fight against all four of them.

However, Yin Xu didn't feel that there was anything to worry about. Disregarding the relationship between him and Teng Yu, he was still someone of the Huo Family. If the Emperor wanted to make a move on him, he had to consider carefully.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have ordered him to get married instead of giving him poisoned wine or three feet of white silk.

The lead eunuch brought him to the duty room, and at the moment, he was in charge of shifts. There were many people walking in and out of the duty room, and when Yin Xu saw him enter, he subconsciously looked at him more.

Most of those who could be guards in the palace were descendants of officials. Although these people only wore the clothes of ordinary guards and did some patrolling work, any one of them could easily be the son of the Minister of Imperial Court.

Yin Xu was wearing the uniform of a commander, and those who were lower in level all bowed to him, however, their attitude was not humble or respectful.

After he passed by, the guards who had come down from their shifts gathered in groups of twos and threes and chatted.

“Newbie?” For such a young commander, what kind of background does he have? “

“You don't even know him? What are you doing these days? “

“Hehe …” “It's not like you don't know that the newcomer Courtesan Belle of Carefree Pavilion has really descended from the heavens. After finishing his shift every day, his heart itched just by looking at me.”

“I think it's more than just taking a look. You almost think of Carefree Pavilion as your home. Sleeping is much more than sleeping at home.” Someone laughed at him.

“So what? The tigress of the family commands me to do so every day. You have no talent, no looks, and you're happy to go home?”

“No matter what, the one who promised to marry her was you.”

“Go, go. Don't talk about this, otherwise, even if it's us brothers, we'll still be in a hurry with you …” Back to the main topic, who was he? Looking at your appearances, don't tell me you guys are some kind of young master? “

“Let me tell you, the one with that surname …” One of the guards gestured with his finger.

“Huh?” Ah, from the Huo Family? No, I know all the young masters of Huo Family, but I have never seen this one before. “

“How did you live these past few months?” Everyone fainted at the same time. The fact that there was one more Seventh Young Master in the Huo Family was something that probably everyone in the capital knew about.

That person was also blushing a little. He was usually on duty and did not like to chat. Every time, he would rush back and forth to the new pet's room. Even if he did hear it, it would definitely go in and out of his right ear without paying much attention.

Yin Xu did not take these people's words to heart. He was brought to the front of the Guard Commander and listened to the other side say in a strange tone: “Truly a child who has not grown up, don't you know that he doesn't even come and do the roll call every day?”

Yin Xu glanced at his sarcastic appearance, and smirked: “This young master does not lack this kind of salary to eat, what does it matter if I come or not?”

“Humph!” What do you think of the imperial concubine? Do you think that the palace is a place where you can come as you please and not come as you please? “

Yin Xu did not reply. He did not need to lower himself to the point of arguing with others.

When the commander saw that he did not put him in his eyes, he was naturally angered and sneered, “Commander Huo has been out of work for many days on the emperor's decree. I've calculated it and have promoted you to the position of an envoy in the palace for exactly three months. Commander Huo, you've been in the palace for the past three months.”

Yin Xu did not expect the emperor to use such a method to keep him in the palace, and the reason he stayed was naturally to separate him and Teng Yu.

Three months wasn't long at all. He didn't know if it was enough for the Emperor to make a move.

Yin Xu shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. This palace was not like an iron wall to him, he just wanted to go out and get an Invisibility Charm.

However, Teng Yu had said before that during this period of time, there were undercurrents in the palace.

“Commander Huo, don't disobey, the rules of this palace is what the emperor says and what we do, if you have the ability to get Marshal Huo or Third Prince to plead for you, then this little bit of trouble is nothing.” The leader glanced at Yin Xu in disdain. He simply treated him as a playboy that relied on his father for his support.

“You also said that it's just this little bit of trouble. If you want me, a dignified Huo Family's Seventh Young Masters, to deal with this little bit of trouble, then I won't trouble you.”

Yin Xu looked at him from head to toe, and thought to himself: Inner energy is not bad, his skills should be considered pretty good in the palace, just right, his Devilish Exercise is about to break through, so I'll use him as a spare.

When the Commander saw that he ignored him, he was slightly angered. He thought for a moment and relaxed his attitude before saying amiably, “Your first day in the palace as a errand boy definitely didn't understand a lot of things. I'll take you to get familiar with your surroundings.”

Yin Xu nodded his head, although he had been to the palace a few times, he had never been able to properly inspect the grounds. Now that he had the opportunity, he would naturally not let it go.

However, he definitely wouldn't think that this man was kind-hearted. He was not interested in knowing what was hidden. He just didn't want to die.

The two of them followed a few fifth rank guards and strolled around the palace. There was only one main figure in the palace, and that was the emperor. The corners of the huge palace were places that all the forces coveted.

“Did you see that door?” Behind that door is the harem. This is a place we can't enter. Don't cross that door without thinking. “

Yin Xu thought: Whoever goes to the harem will be a woman who loves to fight and snatch men.

After walking around in a big circle, Yin Xu silently took note of the terrain in his heart, and at the same time, tried to guess when this man would make his move.

Just as Yin Xu was wondering if this man was planning to find a good place to bury his corpse, the man stopped walking and looked at a palace in the distance sleepily.

Yin Xu's curiosity was piqued, and he followed his gaze. The palace was very far away, standing alone, and under the setting sun, it looked especially deep.

No one passed by, and the roof of the palace was dilapidated. Clearly, it was an abandoned palace.

The man had brought him here, and if anything happened, it would be hard to find out.

Ai …” The Commander sighed and pretended to inadvertently glance at Yin Xu before saying, “Third Prince really liked this place when he was young. The Emperor ordered people to repair this palace unrestrainedly and gave it to Third Prince as a gift, but Third Prince is not a man with a long relationship with him. He took a fancy to another palace after living here for less than half a year.

At the start, there were still a few palace maids left to clean the place and look after it, but after that, the few of them went back to find their own way out, other people would not even dare to speak out, even if they wanted to live here.

Yin Xu did not really understand the meaning behind his words. Could it be that the man wanted to tell him that Teng Yu was a man that would be up to date, and that he would not follow him for long?

If it was just that, then he really wanted to refute, “Humans are like this, when you have enough status and strength, it will be enough to act unruly. In the eyes of outsiders, Teng Yu has occupied the emperor's favor and acted recklessly, but from another point of view, since he has that kind of power, then naturally he can do whatever he wants.”

Yin Xu looked at him indifferently, “Others can't envy it.”
