Demon Lord Gets Married
Chapter 57

C57 – Serve Master Well

Yin Xu walked all the way into the Third Prince Mansion, and what entered his vision was a pavilion pillar. The fake mountains and flowing water, even during the late winter, were unexpectedly overflowing with green, displaying a rare scene filled with vitality.

Han Sen led him forward, and saw the admiration in his eyes, laughing: “This courtyard was specially designed by the Emperor, he even picked plants and flowers to resist the cold, and even if it’s the imperial garden, winter would not be able to compare to our courtyard.”

Yin Xu muttered: “What a waste!” It was just a few mediocre flowers and plants. It would be better to just spend more effort and effort on them.

Han Sen smiled and stopped talking.

“Which courtyard does Teng Yu live in? “Why aren’t you here yet?”

Han Sen was already powerless to correct the act of calling him by his name, and replied submissively: “Your Highness is living in the Scenic Garden, we’ll be there after we cross the courtyard. But Your Highness is about to enter the palace, so you should be in the bathing pool right now.”

“It just so happens that this young master wants to take a bath as well. Go ask Little Wu to bring me my clothes.”

“…” Han Sen intentionally placed the person in the other courtyards, but from the looks of it, it seemed as though he wanted to stay in the Scenic Garden? He was really fat!

“Seventh Young Master, Scenic Garden has always been only occupied by His Highness. There are many guestrooms in the mansion, how about this old servant choose a scenic spot for you?”

“There’s no need to trouble yourself. The weather is so cold, so it’s warmer if we squeeze together. I’ll move in when the spring starts.” Yin Xu did not have much interest in the so called scenery, it was just a few flowers with sparse spiritual energy, it did not enter his eyes.

Han Sen thought: You can even replace such an excuse! Every guest room in the prince’s mansion had a land dragon built within it. Even if one did not sleep under the blanket, they would not feel the cold. It was unknown whether or not he really knew.

However, this matter was not something that he could decide, and in the end, would depend on Third Prince’s decision.

He brought them to the bathing pool, and separated them by a door he asked: “Your Highness, how about this servant arrange Seventh Young Master’s group at Songtao Pavilion?”

Subtle sounds of water could be heard from inside, and after a moment of silence, Teng Yu replied with a short “Mn” word.

Han Sen heaved a sigh of relief, turned around and politely said to Yin Xu: “Seventh Young Master, Songtao Pavilion is the courtyard closest to Scenic Garden. There is also a large bathing pool inside, please follow me.”

“No rush.” Yin Xu raised his brows, went around him and pushed open the door in front of him.

“Seventh Young Master …” Han Sen wanted to stop him, but he heard Third Prince’s voice from inside: “Let him in.”

Han Sen took a step back and guarded the door quietly.

After Yin Xu entered, he kicked the door shut off from Han Sen’s gaze. The room was filled with mist, it was warm and moist, and white mist rose from the huge pond in the middle of the room. As for the people in the pond, they were not able to see everything clearly.

He stepped forward, and the first thing he saw was the two thin maids kneeling at the edge of the bath.

Yin Xu squinted his eyes and walked steadily to the side of the pool, looking down at the man who had closed his eyes.

The two maidservants quietly raised their heads to glance at the approaching person, their hands did not stop moving, one washing Teng Yu’s long hair and the other massaging his shoulders and back.

From Yin Xu’s point of view, he could just see the graceful bodies of the two maids, their pointed chins and captivating red lips.

“Didn’t you say that you are in a hurry to enter the palace? Seeing how His Highness is leisurely enjoying himself, it seems like he isn’t in a hurry at all. “

After a while, Teng Yu opened his eyes and looked at Yin Xu lazily. “Come down to wash together?”

Yin Xu laughed inexplicably, “Sure.” He then opened his arms and said to the two maids, “Come and help this young master change his clothes!”

“…” Surprise flashed across the two servants’ faces at the same time. They were first-rate palace maids beside Third Prince, thus, they had the right to be in close proximity to him. However, they had only served this kind of master.

Seeing their hesitation, Yin Xu snorted unhappily.

“Go and serve Master Huo.” Teng Yu smiled and instructed them. Since he had spoken, the two servants naturally had to do it.

Waiting until all their clothes were taken off but only a thin layer of clothes remained, Yin Xu raised his hand to stop them from moving. He lifted her face while pinching a maid’s chin, and said teasingly: “Don’t look so unwilling, this young master doesn’t like such a pretty girl like you.”

Not caring about the maid’s pig-liver-face, Yin Xu jumped into the bath with a smile. Water splashed in all directions, wetting the skirts of the two servant girls by the side of the pool.

“Alright, you can leave now.” Teng Yu waved for them to leave. He could not deny that he did not like the scene of Yin Xu teasing people just now.

Yin Xu soaked the area below his neck in hot water and let out a breath of air before teasing, “You chased his away, who will help you bathe?”

Teng Yu replied: “Oh you.”

Yin Xu only thought that he was joking, and did not go forward to make a move. Although he was unlikely to be served everyday, he had never done the job of serving others.

Seeing that he did not move, Teng Yu stared at the young man’s body through the water, the white inner clothes became a transparent color and stuck to his body, unable to hide the color of spring, he regretfully retreated a little and closed his eyes: “In a while, after we enter the palace, I will report to Royal Father about your contributions, according to my guess, he will definitely pull up the people around me, and we will start from you.”

“Oh? Will they appoint me as an official? “

Teng Yu seriously thought for a moment, then said: “He should already know your identity, so he has never given Huo Family an explanation regarding the Liu State stone tablet, and might very well cause a ruckus in your body, there definitely will be an official position, but don’t think too much, it definitely won’t be an important position.”

“Hmm? Isn’t that matter regarding Huo Family supposed to be an explanation to the imperial family? “

“What kind of explanation can Huo Family give? Would handing over the military power prove that he wouldn’t rebel? Forget about Huo Family, even if they did, the citizens of the borders would not agree to it. “

“As expected, his achievements shocked the world!” Yin Xu gained a further understanding of the status of Huo Family.

Teng Yu smiled meaningfully, “This matter can only be left unsettled, but the gap between us is something that cannot be removed, on the surface, Royal Father will definitely value Huo Family more, and use a series of methods to pacify our people.”

Yin Xu thought about the reason and laughed, then sighed again: “It’s not good being the emperor of the human world.”

“Then wouldn’t it be easy to be the Hades of the Underworld?” Teng Yu retorted, he did not know what Yin Xu was thinking.

Yin Xu curled his lips, he did not want to argue with him, so he continued to ask: “If the Emperor wants to make his stand clear, and to bestow me with rewards, I think it should be for the true Huo Family, what use is there in promoting me?”

“No, just the opposite!” Teng Yu laughed complacently, “It should be said that your appearance here has made Royal Father even more happy. The person with the lowest Huo Family is the second son, Huo Yidao, who entered the Han Lin Courtyard after getting the money. From the fifth rank, the rest of them, even Huo Yiloong who didn’t have any military merits, have the title of a viscount.

You are the only grandson of Huo Family who has not been recognized positively, and promoting you would not only give him face, but would also not cause your Huo Family to increase greatly, and it would be even better if you could display just a little bit of dissatisfaction towards Huo Family. I believe that Royal Father would be very happy to cultivate you. “

“This is a good idea, nurturing a grandson whose Huo Family is at odds with his, and he will firmly hold it in his hand. When he replaces Huo Zhengquan, it will be much easier to seize military power or to rope him in.”

Teng Yu looked at Yin Xu with the gaze of “you’re not stupid”, and almost failed to see through Demon Lord’s internal injuries.

He snorted coldly and ignored his usual disdain. Instead, he asked, “Do you mean that the Emperor will summon me?”

“Eight out of ten.” On the way back, Teng Yu thought and thought about what would happen, and with Emperor Dechang’s personality, he figured out a plan to deal with it.

“If you weren’t someone from Huo Family, Royal Father would only give you a bit of money and a false reputation. But your surname is Huo, he definitely wouldn’t ignore your existence, and the reason he summoned you was also to investigate your true identity.”

Yin Xu scratched his chin and thought: This way, he must definitely enter the Huo Family gate, but when he thought about what would happen, Demon Lord was a little unsure if he could control his temper when the time comes.

Even though he had only seen Huo Yiloong before on Huo Family, he knew that it would definitely not be easy to get along with any of them.

Teng Yu did not soak for too long, he had already gotten some servants to help him change his clothes when it was almost time. After the maid finished tidying his hair and changing into a complicated palace uniform, he charged into the water and said: “I will be entering the palace, my dinner will probably be used in the palace, you can let Han Sen bring you to familiarize yourself with the environment of the mansion.”

This was Yin Xu’s first time seeing Teng Yu in such formal attire. A pure white embroidered robe with five golden dragons embroidered with golden threads.

However … Yin Xu pointed at him and asked, “Is this a dragon?” This was definitely the first time he had seen such a crippled dragon without any claws.

Teng Yu smiled and did not answer. He knew what Yin Xu was asking, but in the entire world, only nine or five people had the qualifications to wear the Emperor’s Robe of the Five Clawed Nine Dragons.

After Teng Yu left, he soaked in the bath until his entire body became weak. The water in the bath flowed and kept a certain temperature, it was so comfortable that it made people feel like they didn’t want to come out.

After changing his clothes, Yin Xu brought Yin Xu to Songtao Pavilion.

The Songtao Pavilion was indeed very close to the Scenic Garden, it was only separated by a wall, and a pruned weirdly shaped pine tree grew in the courtyard, and there weren’t any unnecessary flowers or plants. It was obvious that the man lived there.

When Yin Xu went in, the butler had already packed their luggage, and was anxiously waiting in the room with Wu Sheng. He thought to himself: Young Master is too preoccupied, he just entered the door and impatiently went to replace the Third Prince, I wonder if there will be any gossip from the servants.

“Songtao Pavilion has four large rooms and two side rooms. The injured male Zi’an is placed in the west wing. The rest can be arranged by the Seventh Young Master.

Yin Xu was quite satisfied with his living quarters. It was close to the main house so it would be easy for him to climb over the wall, but he still said, “Don’t have girls only if you’re male.”

Yin Xu didn’t really like girls from the mortal world. They were too delicate, feeling like they could break at a touch.

Han Sen thought that he did not like girls, and secretly selected people in his heart. He pondered about which of the older, average looking, loyal and loyal male servants should he have in the mansion, and it would be best if he kept his mouth shut.

Because his master was not around, Yin Xu used his dinner very simply. With a few pieces of pastries and a bowl of soup, the amount required made Steward Han frown and think to himself: If this was a girl, it would definitely be difficult to raise!

“Come on, let’s go for a walk.” Yin Xu stood up and brought his two servants to follow Manager Han as he officially began to view the Third Prince Mansion.

“There are only three princes’ residences on this street, and our Third Prince Mansion is the largest and most exquisite. Even the combined forces of the First Prince’s and Second Prince’s manors aren’t as heavy as our Third Prince Mansion.” Manager Han used his slightly high-pitched voice to give a general overview of the estate.

Yin Xu touched here and there, showing genuine curiosity towards things in the mortal world. Especially since he had never seen or heard of many things here, it was the first time he couldn’t help but be curious.

In the eyes of others, he looked like a bumpkin, even the butler and Wu Sheng was more restrained than him.

“The Emperor really can bear to put his money away.” No wonder everyone thought that the emperor’s most beloved son was Teng Yu. Just the money spent on him was enough to make people jealous, it was most likely that it had given Teng Yu a lot of hatred.

The palace is divided into the front courtyard and the rear courtyard, the front courtyard is the residence of His Highness and the guest guards, the back courtyard is the residence of the concubines, and the front courtyard is also divided into seven different courtyards. Songtao Pavilion is the guest room for the distinguished guests who have come to visit, from the start of the estate until now, no one else has lived here.

“To the Third Prince, other than the emperor, who else could be his” esteemed guest “?”

“Isn’t there one in Seventh Young Master now?” Han Sen laughed with a good temper.

Yin Xu shrugged, his expression did not change, and did not think that it was a great honor, but instead, the butler and Wu Sheng were beaming with joy, seemingly filled with pride.

Han Sen had never been able to figure out this youth’s personality. He might say that he loved vanity, but he would often display disdain towards money and power, saying that he was naive and kind, and his actions completely didn’t match.

“The backyard is simply divided into the east, west, south, and north sides. The people in the backyard are not allowed to step out of the two gates without being summoned, so Seventh Young Master only needs to understand the front courtyard.”

“How many people live in the backyard?” Yin Xu asked with interest. With Teng Yu’s reputation outside, this number should not be small.

The corner of Han Sen’s mouth twitched, and he replied sincerely: “This old servant has not calculated it carefully, there are about seventy to eighty people here, but most of them were sent over by various parties, it can’t even be considered as half a master. You don’t have to mind them.”

Yin Xu stopped in his tracks, turned around suddenly, and looked at him with shining eyes: “Do you think I care?”

Who cares what you ask? Director Han cursed silently and replied, “This old servant means you don’t need to care about the people in the backyard, they won’t have the chance to cause trouble.”

“I believe that. Bring me there, let me see what kind of country’s beauty is contained within.”

“This… The backyard is the woman’s residence, it might be inconvenient for you. “

“Didn’t you say that they aren’t even half masters? You can’t even take a look at this esteemed guest of yours? Or are you afraid that I would do something bad to Teng Yu’s woman? “

“Of course not, it’s just that it’s against the rules.” Han Sen clasped his hands together and thought: You little brat, do you have the heart to do anything?

Yin Xu’s face darkened, “What rule? Who made the rules? Teng Yu told me not to enter the backyard? “

“No, Third Prince didn’t.” Han Sen bent his waist lower.

“Isn’t that good enough, moreover…” I heard that there are more than women in the backyard of Third Prince Mansion, right? Since the women are not willing to see it, then let’s go see the men. “

Han Sen wiped off his sweat, and thought: It’s better to look at women.
