Someone saw them coming and recognized Lord He Shangshu at a glance.
He hurriedly greeted him and said, "Sir, do you want to change clothes?"
He Yuanming said displeased: "Humph, your servants are so unruly that they wet my clothes."
The man looked like the housekeeper of the mansion. He quickly stepped forward in a flattering manner, pointed to a room in front of him and said:
"I'm so sorry, sir. You go there and wait a moment. I'll help you find some clothes."
After he finished speaking, he glared at Mo Jiuye fiercely, as if to remind him that the guest will leave soon, and you will be the one to watch.
Mo Jiuye flinched in pretending to be frightened and quickly lowered his head.
Not only would this move not attract the butler's attention, it also seemed that he was quite frightened by the incident.
He Yuanming and Mo Jiuye came to the room pointed by the housekeeper one after another.
Mo Jiuye quickly closed the door, then solemnly knelt in front of He Yuanming and kowtowed three times.
"I've met my father-in-law."
He Yuanming quickly helped the person up.
But facing this somewhat unfamiliar face, he was still hesitant to believe it.
Before he could ask questions, Mo Jiuye took out the handkerchief that He Yuanming used to wipe his clothes, quickly wiped it on his face a few times, and basically restored his original appearance.
Although his son-in-law is away at war all year round, He Yuanming has still seen him several times.
Now, with the facial features of the person in front of me, who could he be if he wasn't his own son-in-law?
"Son-in-law, it's really you, is Ran Ran okay?"
Speaking of his daughter, He Yuanming couldn't help but burst into tears.
Mo Jiuye didn't know why, but when she saw her father-in-law caring so much about his wife, her affection for him rose again.
He helped He Yuanming sit on the chair.
"Father-in-law, Ran Ran has suffered a lot with me, but now that she has settled in the northwest, life is getting better day by day. Now she is pregnant and will give birth in a few months."
As for He Zhiran's pregnancy with twins, Mo Jiuye planned to hide it for the time being.
After all, everyone believed that the probability of dystocia for twins was high, so as not to worry the father-in-law and his family in vain.
Hearing that his daughter was pregnant, He Yuanming's tears flowed uncontrollably again.
"Ran Ran has been spoiled by me and her mother since she was a child. She is not afraid of hardship, as long as she is a good person."
The main purpose of Mo Jiuye's meeting with his father-in-law was to remind him of the Ninth Prince's actions. He knew that the housekeeper would deliver the clothes soon, and there must be no delay in what he wanted to say.
"Father-in-law, I just found out that the Ninth Prince colluded with a Gu Master in southern Xinjiang, and that Gu Master gave him a lot of Gu Insects.
Today, the Ninth Prince will take advantage of the birthday banquet to infect the important ministers of the court with poisonous insects in order to control the overall situation. "
Hearing Mo Jiuye's words, He Yuanming instantly put away his tears and asked incredulously.
"What? You said that the Ninth Prince colluded with the Gu Masters in Southern Xinjiang?"
Mo Jiuye nodded solemnly.
“Well, I saw this with my own eyes, and it’s absolutely true.
I took the risk to come here specifically to remind my father-in-law not to follow the path of the Ninth Prince.
Also, my father-in-law, please relax about your uncle's marriage. Princess Jade is now dead. Even if the Ninth Prince's Mansion didn't come to light because of today's incident, she would not be able to marry into the He family. "
It was impossible for He Yuanming not to be shocked after hearing so much news.
Unexpectedly, his son-in-law came to the capital and helped him resolve two crises.
However, he still had doubts to ask.
"Son-in-law, the Ninth Prince has evil intentions, and the Gu Master of Southern Xinjiang is the best evidence to present in court. I wonder where this person is now?
Also, is Princess Jade’s death related to you? "
Thinking that the death of the Ninth Prince's beloved daughter would definitely cause an uproar if discovered, if this was really done by his son-in-law, he must find a way to help him escape.
"Father-in-law, I was indeed the one who killed Princess Jade. That kind of wanton woman is not worthy of my uncle at all.
Also, the purpose of my trip to the capital was to capture the southern Xinjiang Gu Master. Now I successfully succeeded. This person has been sent out of the capital by my brothers. "
Mo Jiuye still had a certain understanding of He Yuanming's character, otherwise he would not have agreed to marry He Zhiran in the first place.
When a man from the Mohist family marries a wife, he does not have high requirements for family status. He mainly values the character of the woman's natal family.
He Yuanming had been an official in the court for many years. Like his Mohist family, he had always remained neutral and did not join anyone's camp. Moreover, his father-in-law was an upright official, and it could be said that he had made considerable contributions to Dashun.
Now that he has not been implicated by his Mo family, he is still in the position of an important minister, which can explain all this.
Moreover, he also believed that his father-in-law really loved Ran Ran, and even for Ran Ran's sake, he would not tell anything that he shouldn't.
Sure enough, He Yuanming seemed particularly shocked when he heard Mo Jiuye mentioning his brothers.
"Son-in-law, how many brothers did you just say you had?" Could it be that the Mo family man is not dead?
Mo Jiuye will make a long story short.
"On the way to the northwest, I was lucky enough to find that my brothers were still alive. With Ran Ran's help, we have now recovered six brothers, as well as other fathers and brothers, and we have also found news about them.
This man from southern Xinjiang who gave Gu to the Ninth Prince is the main culprit who persecuted the boys of my Mo family. Now he is the biggest clue to find my father and brother. Therefore, I cannot leave this person to my father-in-law as a witness against the Ninth Prince. "
He Yuanming absorbed Mo Jiuye's words carefully. He was sincerely happy for the Mo family.
As for what his son-in-law said about Ran Ran's help, he just thought it was because he was being polite and didn't think much about it.
As a father, he knows better than anyone how much his daughter weighs.
He Zhiran was never like other ladies, who spent the whole day doing things like female celebrities to pass the time, but she only liked reading those medical books written by Lao Shizi.
Is it that easy to study medical books?
You can learn by yourself without any teacher just by relying on some books.
There was no other way, he and his wife both doted on their daughter, and whether she could understand it or not, it was up to her.
If the daughter hadn't made a fuss when she got married to Mo Jiuye and left the box of medical books at home, the medical books would have become a dowry.
Thinking of this, He Yuanming missed his daughter even more.
However, he knew in his heart that this was not the time for him to be sentimental.
"In this case, I will think of other ways to find evidence of the Ninth Prince's treason. I will not let such a person cause trouble to Chaogang."
Mo Jiuye knew that with his father-in-law's character, he would try his best to confront the Ninth Prince.
In order to let him know what he knew, he said softly:
"There is one more thing that I hope my father-in-law knows and can be aware of."
"What's the matter?" He Yuanming felt mixed emotions at the moment. The appearance of his son-in-law actually brought him so much shocking news.
Little did he know that what Mo Jiuye was going to tell him next would be even more shocking than the previous ones.
After all, the two of them had been in the room for some time, and Mo Jiuye did not dare to speak rashly.
He first walked to the door and looked outside. After seeing no suspicious people moving around, he turned back again.
