The Dramatic Crown Princess Wants to Poison Me!

Chapter 797: Chapter 744: Father-in-Law and Son-in-Law (Part 3)

At this moment, he felt somewhat relieved, relieved that the ties between him and Zhao Keyan could not be easily severed.

Unless Grand Tutor Zhao could ignore the rumors in the Capital City, ignore Zhao Keyan’s reputation, and marry her off to someone else. He didn’t believe, after what happened at the Prince Ning Mansion, that anyone would dare to marry Zhao Keyan!

Of course, he also realized that the reason Grand Tutor Zhao invited him into the study and spoke to him so harshly was not due to dissatisfaction, nor because he didn’t want to accept this marriage proposal.

On the contrary, it was precisely because he intended to agree to this marriage that he treated him without any courtesy.

The conversation in the study was Grand Tutor Zhao’s true intention, to test his depths!

So, Huangfu Yuxuan revealed some of his intentions.

As an Imperial Grandson, if he had such ambitions while there was still a Crown Prince, it would be treasonous, but since the Emperor hadn’t appointed a Crown Prince yet, why not have some thoughts?

Moreover, he had to clearly let Grand Tutor Zhao know what he was thinking so that Grand Tutor Zhao could better cooperate with him.

Grand Tutor Zhao sneered, ”Are you dreaming too beautifully? Do you think you can secure the position of Princely Heir? You’re not even a Princely Heir yet, and you want to go further?”

Huangfu Yuxuan sincerely said, ”This step must be taken. Becoming a Princely Heir is just my first step! Now that I have a marriage contract with Keyan, I believe gaining the position of Princely Heir won’t be too difficult!”

Grand Tutor Zhao: ”...”

His sharp gaze fixed on Huangfu Yuxuan, so this troublemaker indeed planned on using his Yan’er?

Grand Tutor Zhao was angry inside, but he quickly calmed down.

If this kid was plotting Yan’er for the sake of the Princely Heir position, then it was considered a prepared move, but he shouldn’t have taken Yan’er’s reputation lightly!

Huangfu Yuxuan understood what Grand Tutor Zhao was thinking from his scrutinizing gaze and immediately said, ”Uncle Zhao, though my affection for Keyan is deep-rooted, I would never do such a thing, you have to believe me, today’s events were truly an accident!”

”So, you were pushing it away in every possible way, not wanting to marry Yan’er, is that true?”

When Huangfu Yuxuan heard this, he knew Zhao Hua had recounted the situation back then, and he hurriedly said, ”I originally had a marriage contract with Miss Xia, and at that time, I acted as I did out of no choice! Because if I didn’t bring everything to light, without a resolution for my engagement with Miss Xia, wouldn’t Keyan be wronged? Although the situation seemed disadvantageous to Keyan at the time, the matter has already been satisfactorily resolved. Please trust my sincere intentions, Uncle Zhao!”

Grand Tutor Zhao was infuriated, this little fox, he was implying that he did all this for Yan’er, otherwise, Yan’er would be a concubine instead of a wife?

Indignating!

However, this indeed eliminated future worries.

Huangfu Yuxuan seized the opportunity and said, ”Uncle Xia, whether it was an accidental hasty decision or a match made in heaven, Keyan and I are destined by fate, I beg Uncle Zhao to grant us this!”

Grand Tutor Zhao still coldly said, ”Do you think that just taking the first step will make everything go according to your wishes? Do you think the position of Princely Heir is already at your fingertips? Do you think the road thereafter will be smooth sailing? Many things cannot be achieved merely by words!”

Huangfu Yuxuan said, ”I understand, over the years, I have not dared to neglect my duties, there are people under me to be used, some wealth to be spent, and some forces to be relied upon...”

Grand Tutor Zhao squinted his eyes, indeed, he did not misjudge; this Second Young Master of Prince Liang Mansion is not one to be underestimated. Before, he thought Huangfu Yuxuan merely clung to Prince Li, seeking fortune.

Now with everything laid out, he finally felt truly at ease.

He snorted, ”Even so, the road you must travel is still very long!”

Huangfu Yuxuan smiled and once again bowed deeply, ”I rely on my father-in-law’s guidance for everything!”

Just a moment ago, he was still addressing him as Uncle Zhao, but now, he instantly changed his tone.

Everything was said so clearly, achieving a consensus between the two.

Grand Tutor Zhao’s expression was uncertain as he coldly watched him maintain his deep bow without changing his posture.

Huangfu Yuxuan also remained silent.

Time seemed to come to a halt, perhaps for a few breaths, or maybe it was already half an hour, only then did Grand Tutor Zhao’s voice emerge: ”Rise!”

Huangfu Yuxuan replied, ”Thank you, father-in-law!” He said seriously, ”From now on, there will be no barriers between us, my father-in-law, and I, and we shall unite our efforts to secure for Keyan the most honored and prestigious status a woman in the world could have!”
