The old master He clutched the pig-slaughtering knife that had accompanied him for most of his life,

standing there silently,

facing Ji Chengjue and the Eldest Prince who were approaching,

facing the carriage,

and the convoy behind the carriage,

he resembled a swordsman.

Ji Chengjue had never met that Sword Saint of Jin land, although it was said that the Sword Saint worked under his brother with the surname Zheng. But because they were so far apart, even if there was a plan to introduce, it was difficult to achieve.

But at this moment,

Ji Chengjue suddenly felt,

that the demeanor of the old master He standing there,

might be comparable to that of the Sword Saint when he faced the wild cavalry before Snow Sea.

Yes,

he himself is just like one of those wild cavalry about to be slaughtered.

In reality, Ji Chengjue knew in his heart that the old He, this father-in-law, was very genuine.

If he were not a prince, just a police chief, or even just a son-in-law staying with the He's and helping with the pig slaughtering business, life wouldn't be so bad.

Living a lifetime,

indeed requires leaving some tender places in one's heart.

He's not his own father, can't reach the level of his own father, at least, for now, there is no need.

Just like the surname Zheng said: people have to be pretentious once in a while.

Ji Chengjue felt that these words were very true.

Therefore,

this contemporary Sixth Prince,

once shelved and suppressed but now virtually in charge of the Ministry of Revenue, enough to make the Eldest Prince holler from behind him, Ji Chengjue,

knelt before this old pig slaughterer.

"Son-in-law pays respect to the old master, may the old master be blessed with health."

In terms of feelings, his daughter was given to him, the man did not make things difficult, did not demand any bridal price, just let his daughter go with him, he must remember that;

In terms of reason, he took the man's daughter away for almost half a year, the marriage was delayed without progress, and now even got the man's daughter pregnant, surely he's at fault.

So, this kneeling was deserved.

To speak frankly,

in these ten years,

even kneeling to his emperor father never felt as sincere and comfortable as this time.

The old master He took a deep breath,

looked at Ji Chengjue,

and then at the Eldest Prince standing behind Ji Chengjue.

The Eldest Prince came as the representative of the groom's family, so he didn't need to bow, just cupped his hands towards the old master He.

The old master He did not respond,

but instead tossed the pig-slaughtering knife onto the chopping block,

"Thunk!"

The pig-slaughtering knife embedded into the chopping block, making a dull sound.

Ji Chengjue took a deep breath, glancing slyly at his brother-in-law.

Then he thought about his pregnant wife in the carriage behind.

At this moment, revealing his identity to his father-in-law indeed felt like oppressing him with power. In terms of dealing with people, Ji Laoliu indeed had his skills, so he planned to bow his head and bear the wrath and grievances from his father-in-law.

"Well, well, Yan Xiaoliu, you are bullying our He family without a family background you don't look up to, aren't you?

What do you mean by this, what do you mean!

I gave my excellent daughter to you, and this is how you treat her, this is how you treat her family?

The proper rites were skipped, the proper procedures weren't seen, and you just eloped with her, how much do you look down upon my daughter, how much do you look down upon my He family?"

"Old Master, it was heavy, really, there were reasons, and it was delayed."

The Ji family rules are many, during wartime, the Ji family forbids marriage and funerals, this passed down from their ancestors.

Even Ji Wujiang's marriage could not be considered a proper marriage, more like a continuation and corresponding method of war.

"Give my daughter back to me, this old man hasn't much talent in his life, but a daughter, I can still afford to raise her, she doesn't have to suffer in a family that doesn't know decency!"

The old master He immediately shouted loudly:

"You unfilial son!"

He Chu with sweating forehead, ran over.

Fortunately, today his father did not call him bastard.

"Bring your sister down from the sedan, we are going home! This marriage, won't happen, this son-in-law, your father doesn't care about!"

"This..."

He Chu was momentarily at a loss.

If it were an ordinary brother-in-law, dare to treat his sister like this, not knowing propriety, and even got his sister pregnant, this pig-slaughtering brother-in-law would have already taken his pig-slaughtering knife, stained with countless grievances of dead pigs, to fight to the death.

But this man in front of him,

this man in front of him,

He Chu really didn't dare.

Father,

there's already a baby in the sister's belly,

you say no marriage means no marriage?

In his sister's belly is the royal heir, the royal heir! 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

He Chu even inquired about it, the baby in his sister's belly, barring any accidents, should be the first grandchild of the current emperor.

The old master He saw his son standing there motionless,

immediately cursed angrily:

"What's the matter, afraid your sister will come back and compete with you, her brother, for the family property!"

"No, father."

He Chu, provoked by the accusation, could only bite the bullet and walk over to the sedan, saying:

"Sister, father wants us to go home first."

The curtain was lifted,

Lady He stepped out of the sedan.

She saw her father, and then her husband kneeling before her father, opened her mouth as if wanting to say something, but in the end, said nothing, and followed her brother inside.

He Chu carefully accompanied his sister beside her, fearing she might slip or lose her footing.

Once inside, with the door closed.

Lady He immediately pinched her brother hard,
