C345: How can This be good

The imperial envoy, who was astute, neither expressed sympathy for the He family nor intended to witness their embarrassment any longer. After exchanging a few auspicious words, he beckoned for his men to leave.

As soon as these people departed, the two kneeling servants at the door immediately stood up and entered the courtyard, closing the main gate behind them.

Shortly after, Mo Jiuye heard a faint sobbing sound coming from within the courtyard.

"Madam, what are we going to do?"

Madam He's voice was very soft, and if it weren't for Mo Jiuye's exceptional martial arts and keen hearing, he wouldn't have heard it at all.

He was indeed curious about the reactions of his in-laws to this matter. Therefore, he quietly left the crowd, circumvented the side of Minister Hao's residence, and leaped up a tall tree to get a glimpse inside.

Minister Hao and his wife and son all hung their heads, sighing deeply.

"The imperial decree has ordered the marriage. What else can I do?"

He Yuanming spoke and turned to his despondent son.

"So many excellent young ladies were introduced to you by your mother, but you refused them all. Now, you've caught the attention of Princess Yu, and the whole family is implicated."

Madam He, displeased with her son being blamed, said somewhat unhappily:

"It's all because of you. You insisted on sending Ziming to participate in the imperial examination. If not for that, how would he have ended up parading in the streets and caught the attention of Princess Yu?"

"You... I sent Ziming to participate in the imperial examination because I didn't want his talent to go to waste. How can you blame me for this?"

He Ziming, seeing his parents about to argue, quickly stepped between them.

"Father, Mother, please stop arguing. The imperial order is hard to defy. Since I must marry Princess Yu, I can simply live separately, sparing you both from suffering."

Upon hearing their son's words, Madam He burst into tears.

"How can that be? No matter how arrogant Princess Yu is, she is still a junior in front of your father and me. She will have some considerations. If you live separately, I'm afraid you won't have a single good day."

Madam He thought that as a mother-in-law, she could at least have some deterrent effect.

Listening to the conversation between his in-laws and his wife, Mo Jiuye made a silent resolution to help them.

He quietly left Minister Hao's residence and headed once again towards the direction of the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

Perhaps due to the imperial decree for Princess Yu's marriage, the usually low-key Ninth Prince's Mansion was surprisingly bustling today.

Although the main gate was not fully open, people were constantly coming and going through the side entrance, and servants were busy back and forth.

If Mo Jiuye didn't know about the connection between Mr. Si Meng and the Ninth Prince's Mansion, he might have mistaken it for the Ninth Prince deliberately keeping a low profile.

Now, however, he didn't think so. The Ninth Prince's Mansion's actions were clearly intentional.

Whether intentional or unintentional, in any case, Mo Jiuye would not dare to underestimate the Ninth Prince.
