In the car, Xue Sijian hesitated several times, but Xue Jinruo felt a little helpless, so he had to take the initiative to ask: "Brother, what happened to you today? Is it possible that there is something wrong with my face?"

"There are no flowers," Xue Sijian could only sneer and said, "Ajin, what are you and the prince doing..."

Xue Jinruo said with a smile: "I just want to give Sheng Jingze another chance, but I haven't decided yet. Could it be that big brother thinks it's inappropriate?"

"Very appropriate, very appropriate." Xue Sijian hurriedly waved his hand and responded. He breathed a sigh of relief and smiled on his face, and then he said a lot of good things about the prince.

Until they arrived at the Xue family's house, Xue Sijian was still talking to himself: "...If you ask me, the prince is really good. I have never seen him treat the second woman like this."

"Brother, none of the matchmakers who have come to our family in the past years are as good at speaking as you. I think you can also be a matchmaker in the future." Xue Jinruo couldn't help but raised his forehead and said with a smile.

Hearing the ridicule in Xue Jinruo's words, Xue Sijian also laughed.

Amid laughter, the two got off the carriage, but saw an unexpected person in front of the door - Mr. Hu.

The two looked at each other and walked over quickly. As they got closer, the conversation between him and the Xue family could be heard much more clearly.

"My father-in-law, we don't speak the same language as our family. I asked someone to see me. It will be an auspicious day in a few days. How about we choose that day to arrange the marriage between my daughter and Mr. Ling? What do you think? How about it?" Mr. Hu said with a smile.

Xue Yizhong suddenly looked troubled: "Master Hu, you are also an official in the court, haven't you heard that Xue Siriang has gone to the battlefield? How can we get married now that we haven't triumphed yet?"

"It doesn't matter. If Xue Sirang isn't there, wouldn't there be Xue Sirang?" Master Hu waved his hand and said casually.

The more Xue Yizhong listened, the more something was wrong. This was a major matter of marriage. How come it came out of Mr. Hu's mouth as casually as buying vegetables at the vegetable market?

"Master Hu, what do you mean by this? This is not shopping for vegetables. If you don't have cabbage, choose carrots. This is a major matter of marriage. How can you be so casual?"

Seeing that he had no intention of agreeing, Mr. Hu became very anxious and said directly: "General Xue, the engagement has been concluded. No matter which son of your Xue family is at a disadvantage, I will not give up the betrothal gift." I just hope that we can get married as soon as possible."

"Master Hu is really good at planning. It's a pity that your Hu family is in a hurry, but our Xue family is not in a hurry." Xue Jinruo said and walked in the door.

Shen Xiangqin stood up immediately and wanted to ask about the situation of today's cruise ship, but because Master Hu was not present, he could only suppress the curiosity in his heart, but he did not forget to pretend to scold: "Jin'er, Master Hu today You are here to discuss marriage with us, so please don’t lie.”

"Mom, when we were anxious earlier, Mr. Hu was very reluctant, but since the second prince was just in charge of the country, he hurried over. It was obvious that he saw that the prince had no chance of making a comeback, so he wanted to use us to climb up. It's a pity that the second prince's brother is off on an expedition, so this marriage will have to be postponed no matter what." Xue Jinruo ignored the scolding, but revealed Master Hu's thoughts with one sentence.

Mr. Hu was suddenly speechless, but he had to pretend to yell: "You are talking nonsense!"

"I originally wanted to keep my daughter for a few more years, but after thinking about it, she is already old. If I continue to delay her, I'm afraid she will become an old girl. That's why I'm worried." He found the most ridiculous reason.

Xue Jinruo looked at him with half-squinted eyes, with sarcasm in his eyes.

Shen Xiangqin and Xue Yizhong also realized the problem instantly. It seemed that Mr. Hu had been treading two boats. Seeing that Sheng Chengjie was no longer reliable, he came to look for them.

But let’s not mention that this marriage was originally agreed upon with Xue Siriang, but Mr. Hu’s repeated changes of mind are not reliable.

Xue Yizhong thought for a moment and said: "Master Hu, I also know that you are concerned about your daughter's marriage, but this marriage belongs to the second child after all. Even if we try to match the third child, it will be useless. I think you should wait. Well, I don’t know the situation of the war at the moment, maybe there is no important war and I will be back soon.”

"Yes, if the person is changed temporarily and the second child is not here, I don't know how Miss Hu's reputation will be discussed outside." Shen Xiangqin also agreed.

Xue Jinruo originally wanted to talk nicely, but facing such a villain, she really couldn't calm down her temper, so she said directly: "Xiaochun, see you off."

"Yes." Xiaochun said and walked straight forward.

After all, she is a maid in the Regent's Palace, and no one will make things difficult for her.

But Mr. Hu was indeed a little anxious, and he even said without hesitation: "Xue Jinruo, I came to discuss marriage today because I think highly of your Xue family. You don't even look at the current situation of your Xue family. Even if you have cleared your name, No matter what, I still can't be reinstated. It shows that His Majesty still doubts you from the bottom of his heart. I didn't expect you to be so ungrateful. If it weren't for the fact that you are the Regent Princess, no one would be able to speak nicely to you."

His words shocked Xue Jinruo.

Xue Jinruo pursed her lips. Indeed, if she were not the regent princess, these people would not give her a good look at all, and it would be impossible for the Xue family to wash away their grievances.

Her hands clenched into fists, and she hesitated for a moment before speaking again: "But I will always be the regent princess, not only today, but also tomorrow. Even if you have resentment in your heart, you can only speak well to me."

"Xiaochun, see you off!" she said again.

This time, her gloomy expression was enough to prove her unhappiness.

Xiaochun originally didn't want to be violent, but he didn't dare to offend Xue Jinruo, so he simply threw him out.

"What are you doing? I'm... um!" Mr. Hu looked at the servants approaching from all sides, and suddenly felt a little panicked. He was about to reveal his identity, but was blocked by Xiaochun in time.

Then he lifted Mr. Hu up and walked straight to the door.

"A Jin..." Shen Xiangqin looked embarrassed when he saw this. After all, Mr. Hu was an imperial official, so lowering his status like this would probably make him resentful, so he couldn't help but tried to dissuade him.

But as soon as the words came to Xue Jinruo's name, she was interrupted by a wave of her hand: "Mom, don't worry."

"How can you rest assured? He is also an official of the imperial court. It is too much to treat him like this." Shen Xiangqin shook her head slightly. She was just worried that this would bring unnecessary trouble to the Xue family. .
