Chapter 354

He Yuanming said unpleasantly, "Humph, the servants in your household are too undisciplined, getting my clothes wet."

The man seemed to be the steward of the household. He hurriedly fawned up and pointed to a room in front saying,

"I\'m really sorry, my lord. Please go there and wait for a moment, I will fetch clothes for you right away."

After speaking, he glared fiercely at Mo Jiuye, as if to remind him that there would be consequences for this after the guest left.

Mo Jiuye pretended to shrink back in fear, quickly lowering his head.

This action not only did not attract the steward\'s attention, but made him seem very frightened by the matter.

He Yuanming and Mo Jiuye went one after the other to the room the steward had pointed out.

Mo Jiuye quickly closed the door, then solemnly knelt in front of He Yuanming and knocked his head three times on the ground.

"Greetings, father-in-law."

He Yuanming quickly helped him up.

But facing this somewhat unfamiliar face, he was still doubtful.

Before he could ask, Mo Jiuye took out the handkerchief that He Yuanming had used to wipe his clothes. He quickly wiped his face a few times, basically restoring his original appearance.

His son-in-law had been away on campaigns for years, but He Yuanming had still seen him a few times.

Now, the brows and eyes of the man before him, who could it be if not his son-in-law?

"Son-in-law, it really is you. Is Ran Ran alright?"

Speaking of his daughter, He Yuanming couldn\'t help but let his tears flow.

Mo Jiuye didn\'t know why, but seeing his father-in-law care so much about his wife made his affection for him grow once more.

He supported He Yuanming to sit in a chair.

"Father-in-law, Ran Ran suffered a lot following me, but now that we\'ve settled in the northwest, life has been better every day. Now she is already pregnant and will give birth in a few months."

As for He Zhiran being pregnant with twins, Mo Jiuye planned to conceal it for now.

After all, everyone thought twins were more likely to be difficult births, and he didn\'t want the in-laws to worry unnecessarily.

Hearing that his daughter was pregnant, He Yuanming\'s tears flowed uncontrolled again.

"Ran Ran was spoiled by me and her mother since she was little. It doesn\'t matter if she suffers, as long as she\'s alright."

Mo Jiuye\'s main purpose in meeting with his father-in-law was to remind him to pay attention to the actions of the Ninth Prince. He knew the steward would bring the clothes soon, so he couldn\'t afford any delay.

"Father-in-law, I just discovered that the Ninth Prince is colluding with a sorcerer from the Southern Borderlands who gave him many poisonous bugs.

Today the Ninth Prince will take advantage of the birthday banquet to put the bugs on important ministers at court in order to control the situation."

Hearing Mo Jiuye\'s words, He Yuanming instantly put away his tears. He asked back in disbelief,

"What? You said the Ninth Prince is colluding with a sorcerer from the Southern Borderlands?"

Mo Jiuye nodded solemnly.

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes, it\'s absolutely true.

I took the risk to come tell father-in-law, don\'t fall for the Ninth Prince\'s tricks.

Also, for big brother\'s wedding, please keep an open mind, father-in-law. That Jade Princess is already dead, so she can\'t marry into the He family anyway, even if the Ninth Prince\'s household doesn\'t get exposed today for this matter."

Hearing so much news, it was impossible for He Yuanming not to be shocked.

He didn\'t expect that his son-in-law\'s trip to the capital would help resolve two crises for him.

But he still had doubts to ask.

"Son-in-law, the Ninth Prince has treasonous intentions. That Southern Borderlands sorcerer would be the best witness to present in court. May I ask where this person is now?

Also, is the Jade Princess\'s death related to you?"

Thinking that the Ninth Prince\'s beloved daughter had died, if it was discovered it would surely cause huge waves. If this matter was really done by his son-in-law, he must find a way to help him escape.

"Father-in-law, I did indeed kill the Jade Princess. A fickle woman like that is completely unworthy of big brother.

Also, my purpose coming to the capital this time was to capture that Southern Borderlands sorcerer. Now I\'ve succeeded, and my brothers have already escorted him out of the capital."

Mo Jiuye still had a certain understanding of He Yuanming\'s character, otherwise he wouldn\'t have agreed to marry He Zhiran.

For his Mo family sons taking wives, the requirements for status weren\'t high. They mainly valued the wife\'s parents\' character.

He Yuanming had been an official at court for many years. Like his Mo family, he always maintained neutrality, not joining anyone\'s faction. And father-in-law was known for being an upright official, making no small contribution to Great Shun.

The fact that he hadn\'t been implicated by his Mo family despite everything showed this.

Moreover, he also believed father-in-law truly cared for Ran Ran. Even for Ran Ran\'s sake, he wouldn\'t speak of things that shouldn\'t be told.

Sure enough, when He Yuanming heard Mo Jiuye mention brothers, he seemed even more shocked.

"Son-in-law, you just said your brothers?" Could it be the Mo family sons are not dead?

Mo Jiuye was brief.

"On the way heading northwest, I fortunately discovered eldest brother was still alive. With Ran Ran\'s help, I\'ve now found six elder brothers, and learned of the whereabouts of other elders and uncles.

This Southern Borderlands man who gave the Ninth Prince poisonous bugs is the chief culprit in persecuting my Mo family sons. So I cannot leave him to father-in-law as evidence against the Ninth Prince. "

Hearing Mo Jiuye\'s words, He Yuanming carefully absorbed it all. He sincerely felt happy for the Mo family.

As for his son-in-law mentioning Ran Ran helping, he only thought his son-in-law was being polite, and didn\'t think much of it.

As her father, he was clearer than anyone on his daughter\'s abilities.

Unlike other young ladies, He Zhiran never spent her days doing feminine hobbies like embroidery. She only liked reading those medical books.

Were medical books so simple to learn from just reading some books without a teacher?

There was no helping it. He and his wife doted on their daughter, so whether she could understand or not, they indulged her.

If it wasn\'t for his daughter making a fuss when marrying Mo Jiuye, leaving that box of medical books at home, the books would have been part of her dowry.

Thinking of this, He Yuanming felt more longing for his daughter.

But he was clear that now was not the time for him to be sentimental.

"Since that\'s the case, I will find other ways to uncover evidence of the Ninth Prince\'s treason. We cannot allow such a villain to cause chaos."

Mo Jiuye knew with father-in-law\'s personality, he would strongly oppose the Ninth Prince.

To give him a full picture, he softly added:

"There is one more thing I hope father-in-law knows, so you are prepared."

"What is it?" He Yuanming\'s heart was filled with complicated emotions. His son-in-law\'s appearance had brought him so much shocking news.

How could he know the matter Mo Jiuye was about to tell him would be even more shocking than everything before.

After all, they had been in the room for some time already, so Mo Jiuye did not dare to directly speak out.

He first went to the door to look out and make sure there were no suspicious people around before returning.
