Chapter 171: Standing on the Prince’s Side
"I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep if you know."
After Huo Jin finished speaking, he slowly straightened up, turned around and walked out quickly.
Liang Moyuan looked at his back until he disappeared, then she laughed.
Huo Jin saw that he was teasing her?
However, in the current situation, she really couldn't sleep, so Liang Moyuan called Mei Shu and others to help her dress up.
Anyway, when you accompany the old lady to pay your respects, you will usually be asked to stay for breakfast, so it is better to go early.
When passing by the courtyard of the second house, Liang Moyuan faintly smelled a strong fragrance.
Liang Shanyu didn’t like using aromatherapy in the past.
Liang Moyuan frowned, feeling that the fragrance gave her a headache, and quickened her pace as she walked over.
The old lady, who had just finished washing up, smiled when she saw Liang Moyuan and Huo Jinjian came together.
"You guys came early, unlike the others."
There was a hint of dissatisfaction towards the second house in these words.
I had already given up hope that they could make any contribution to the Marquis' Mansion, but I didn't expect them to be so rude even about such a small matter as paying their daily respects.
The old lady sneered in her heart.
Seeing Liang Moyuan preparing to serve tea, the old lady waved her hand and said, "Forget it. I know your filial piety. There is no need to do this. Please sit down."
Huo Jin saw Liang Moyuan being pulled aside and sat down. He first asked the nanny beside the old lady, "Grandma, have you taken your medicine today?"
Nanny thought Huo Jin was concerned about the old lady's health and immediately replied, "I ate it this morning."
Then there's no problem.
Huo Jin coughed lightly and said, "Grandma, there is a reason why the second branch didn't come to pay their respects today."
Upon hearing this, the old lady turned her head to look at him, her tone puzzled: "What happened to the second house again?"
Obviously she thought Huo Siyuan and the others were in trouble again.
Huo Jin glanced at the maids and servants in the old lady's room.
The old lady immediately understood what Huo Jinjian meant and waved her hand: "Everyone go down."
When the nanny finally left, she considerately closed the door.
Huo Jin spoke only after seeing this.
"My grandson heard that Siyuan went to the Prince's Mansion yesterday and never came back. It is said that the Prince rewarded him with two beauties. The Prince was also in the same room with him and never came out again."
These words were enough to give the old lady a cardiac arrest.
"The Crown Prince is the heir apparent, and Siyuan is on good terms with him. In the eyes of outsiders, it seems that the Marquisate is on the Crown Prince's side. If one day..."
Huo Jin saw that the old lady had not said the final words directly, but just by looking at the change in her expression, he knew that she already knew what he meant.
Moreover, he is not the kind of person who likes to stir up trouble, so the old lady would naturally believe what he said.
Not only the old lady, but even Liang Moyuan was shocked when she heard it.
She knew that Huo Siyuan was not a good person, greedy for money and lustful, but she didn't expect him to be so absurd.
If it was with someone else, it would be fine, but with the prince?
Huo Jinjian's words hit the nail on the head, and the old lady almost fainted.
"This damned——"
No matter how dignified and calm she was in normal times, the old lady could hardly bear it when she heard such news.
Liang Moyuan was worried that the old lady was really angry, so she quickly stepped forward and patted her back to help her calm down.
"Calm down and don't hurt yourself." Liang Moyuan picked up the teacup beside her and brought it to the old lady's mouth.
The old lady drank the tea and finally felt better.
The more Huo Jin heard those words, the more she thought about them. She looked at Huo Jin and said, "Go call your useless father! I want to ask him how he taught his son!"
If a son is not well educated, it is the father's fault. How did he educate his sons? Why are his two sons so different, one in heaven and one in hell?
In Huo Hou's yard, Yu was gently massaging his legs, with fine tea and some small items from before placed in front of him.
"My Lord, our Siyuan has worked hard and is now favored by the prince. You must not be partial to him in the future."
Yu's tone was delicate, and Huo Hou, who was already beaming with joy at the good things in front of him, nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Siyuan is really capable. He knows how to honor his father after getting good things, unlike the eldest wife - humph, let's not talk about it."
When Liang Moyuan stepped into the courtyard, what she heard was Huo Hou's cold snort filled with dissatisfaction.
She narrowed her eyes slightly.
Laugh now, while you can still laugh. Later, when the old lady teaches you a lesson and finds out what Huo Siyuan has done, it will be too late to cry.
