Chapter 782: Confession 3
Chu Li knew about the situation of the Huo family and the Ping'an Hou Mansion, and after he accompanied Uncle Huo to talk for a while, he made an excuse and took Uncle Huo to a pavilion in the garden to talk.
"Uncle Huo, since you have already come, you have also seen it, my father-in-law loves both sons very much, I want to know, what does Ping'an Hou mean?"
Mrs. Huo and Marquis Ping'an were both old, and they learned that their nephew was in Hangzhou City, and they wanted to come over in person to recognize their relatives, but Uncle Huo was worried that the two old men would not be able to withstand the bumps of the carriage on the road, so they stopped the two old men from coming.
In the end, after discussion, Uncle Huo asked the emperor for leave and came to Hangzhou City in person.
Uncle Huo looked at him, his eyebrows raised, "Chu Li, you are my cousin's nephew and son-in-law, and I won't hide it from you, my uncle has been waiting for a lifetime, and he is looking forward to waiting for a male heir who inherits the Lu family's incense, even if this person has half of the Lu family's blood in his body." ”
"It's a pity that my aunt only gave birth to one son to me, and I was incompetent, I only gave birth to a son, married so many aunts, and gave birth to all daughters, which is about to become a regret in the hearts of my aunt and uncle."
"Originally, after my son got married this time, we hoped that our daughter-in-law could give birth to a few more sons to the Huo family, and it would be better than inheriting incense for the Lu family, but a few days ago, my uncle's health became worse and worse, and he couldn't wait, but fortunately, we investigated the whereabouts of my aunt's children."
"This may be the will of God, and the will of God will not let the Lu family die."
"Before I came to Hangzhou, my uncle had already asked the emperor to succeed Xi Yun as the grandson of the Lu family, and to seal Xi Yun...... No, it is Lu Yun who is the prince of the Ping'an Marquis Mansion. ”
Princess Changling has always felt that she failed to give birth to an heir for the Lu family to inherit the incense, and she felt guilty about the ancestors of the Lu family, and guilty about her husband and the Marquis of Ping'an.
Therefore, after learning of Xi Ming Xi Yun's existence, Princess Changling took the initiative to enter the palace and ask for grace for the Ping'an Marquis's Mansion.
Today's emperor is the nephew of Princess Changling, Princess Changling opened her mouth, and the emperor rewarded them with a favor.
Therefore, when Uncle Huo arrived in Hangzhou City, on the side of the capital, the emperor's holy decree for the request of the Marquis of Ping'an was sent to the Marquis of Ping'an's mansion.
Now, even if the Xi family doesn't want to agree, they have to agree to this matter.
If the Xi family refuses, it is disrespectful.
Chu Li's face suddenly became gloomy, "Even if you want to succeed, you should discuss it with my father-in-law, you ......"
"It's not that it's not negotiable, it's that I don't have time, my uncle has been waiting for this day, waiting for a lifetime, and suddenly, let him see hope, he doesn't want to lose, his old man's wishes, please be more considerate, you can help him in front of your father-in-law, say a few more good words."
Uncle Huo knew that what they did was not authentic.
After all, he is going to snatch away someone's son, and before he has told others, it is natural that people will be unhappy and angry.
It's just that this matter is a foregone conclusion, and anger is anger, but you can't resist the decree and disrespect, otherwise, if the Xi family disobeys the holy decree, even the Marquis of Peace will not be able to save the Xi family.
"And how are you going to talk to my father-in-law about it?" Chu Li asked.
Uncle Huo was dumb for a moment.
He has been an official for so many years, and he has seen people talk about people, and he has never done anything to rob people's sons.
