"The Zhu Gui the princess is talking about should be my uncle. My aunt knows that Zhu Gui is nothing, so she can't do anything to him. Moreover, there are many people in the Huo family, especially women, who all dislike each other. This is normal. It would be abnormal if the women of the Huo family all like each other."
Huo Nian'er said again, "To be honest, Nian'er was able to serve His Highness the Crown Prince because Nian'er fought hard for it. The first time I saw the Crown Prince, I fell in love with him..."
When An Xiyue heard that Huo Nian'er dared to say such a thing, her face was full of embarrassment. She just smiled and said, "Which wealthy mansion doesn't have some troubles? It's the same. Miss Nian'er has the courage to pursue true love... It's really amazing."
Huo Nian'er seemed to have found a close friend, "Does the princess think so too? The fate of the women of the Huo family will not be in our own hands, but I don't accept fate." Huo Nian'er's face couldn't help but smile when he mentioned the prince. famous.
She was only one year younger than An Xiyue, so Huo Nian'er started chatting with An Xiyue...
It turns out that Huo Kun married Huo's woman to Zhu Gui because the Zhu brothers had always been Huo Kun's right-hand men. Zhu Gui was unsatisfied, eating from the bowl and looking at the pot. Naturally, he reached out to other members of the Huo family. For example, Huo Nian'er's biological mother was also brutally murdered, and this was just one of them.
An Xiyue secretly said: "Mrs. Zhu is also stupid. She doesn't dare to cause trouble for Zhu Gui. Instead, she vents all her anger on the woman Zhu Gui hooks up with. She even hates Huo Nian'er. No wonder Huo Weixi doesn't want to let him His sister moved into the East Palace and became the crown prince’s woman. In this way, they will never be able to get rid of the Huo family label.”
An Xiyue also got news from Huo Nian'er that Zhu Gui's brother was named Zhu Qing, but not many people knew it.
An Xiyue connected everything together. Isn't Zhu Qing the mayor Zhu who escaped from Yangjiao Town? Could it be that Mayor Zhu is also from the Huo family?
When Yangjiao Town was suddenly engulfed in fire, the people in the town fled and died. Later, Mayor Zhu also fled.
She remembered Tianya saying that there were traces of snake exorcists in Yangjiao Town. Although the fire destroyed all the evidence, Tianya could tell at a glance that the snake exterminators had stopped in Yangjiao Town.
"Let's go to the banquet hall first." An Xiyue said suddenly. Although they knew that coming to Huo Mansion would be dangerous, they could not predict how big the danger would be.
If Huo Kun and Lin Hu also colluded, Nangong Yuanyi would be in danger.
Suddenly, An Xiyue turned around and felt a pair of eyes staring at her from the dark, but when she looked over, she saw nothing.
…
The banquet was placed in the front hall of Huo Mansion, which was a very unique courtyard.
In the main hall, there was a lot of singing and dancing, but there were not many smiles on the faces of the guests. If the Huo Mansion usually held a banquet, they would bring their wives and children to join in the fun, but it was different today. All the invited aristocratic families and officials, They all come alone.
It made the atmosphere very awkward and weird...
In the entire hall, probably only the dancers, Huo Kun and others were chatting and laughing, and the table was filled with delicious food.
Huo Kun is obviously over sixty years old, but he still looks very energetic.
Huo Weixi also accompanied him. The prince was welcomed to the throne, while King Nan and King Chu sat at the bottom.
Huo Kun held the wine glass and greeted: "The prince and the two princes went to Yuzhou to provide relief. I should have held a banquet for him a long time ago. Later, the Queen Mother also sent a message, instructing me to entertain your highnesses well. It took me so long to invite the prince. After passing the government meeting, I will first punish myself with three cups of wine."
