Xue Jinruo hesitated for a moment, then suddenly said: "Third brother, you keep saying that I threw dirty water on him, but how do you explain that she has a close relationship with the prince, how do you explain that she stays in the regent's palace and refuses to leave, and how do you explain that she is staying in the regent's palace and refuses to leave? How to explain that she framed me for raising a man outside..."

"I have cared about the Xue family's affection for each of these things. I have never argued with her, let alone complained to you. But because of this, she was betrayed by him and I insulted her. In this world, Isn’t this the truth?”

At the end of the sentence, there was a little heartache in her eyes.

She never cried about this because she could solve it herself, and she didn't want to cause trouble to the Xue family, but she never thought that Xue Xueyao would take advantage of this loophole.

When Shen Xiangqin heard this, she immediately panicked and quickly came up to hug her daughter. She felt infinite regret in her heart: "Good boy, you should tell us after you have suffered so many grievances, otherwise..."

"Mom, my daughter has grown up, and she has to learn to deal with some things by herself." Xue Jinruo's sensible appearance was in sharp contrast to Xue Xueyao, which made the Xue family feel even more distressed. "In addition, you asked me to help her look after her husband's family. , I’m afraid it won’t work out, now that she lives in the Prince Regent’s Mansion, no one thinks she has anything to do with the prince, but those outside don’t dare to think so.”

Her words made Shen Xiangqin even more distressed.

The Xue family wanted to say something more, but Xiao Yi quickly urged: "Princess, it's almost time, we should go back."

Xue Jinruo also wanted to stay longer, but he also knew that the longer he stayed here, the more danger he would put in the Xue family.

When she was about to say goodbye, Xue Yizhong spoke again: "Jin'er, since the prince wants the military talisman, he will definitely attack you. You must be careful these days. If you encounter any difficulties, you must be careful." Come and find your parents."

"Dad, don't worry. The prince is afraid that he will not be able to protect himself these days and has no time to take care of my affairs." After Xue Jinruo said this, he immediately turned around and left.

The Xue family was left confused and stayed where they were.

However, Xue Jinruo’s words are not wrong——

"Your Majesty, the floods in the south of the Yangtze River were reported to the Ministry of Household Affairs a month ago, but the Ministry of Household Affairs suppressed the matter and did not mention it. This shows that there are bad intentions." The Minister of Punishment was the first to complain.

Everyone knows that this world should belong to the people. If the people's livelihood cannot be taken into consideration, then the world will naturally fall.

After hearing this, Shangshu Hubu immediately looked at Sheng Chengjie.

Originally, it was Sheng Chengjie who promised that the matter would not be exposed, so he dared to take the risk. Now that others are talking lightly, he naturally has to rely on the power of the East Palace.

Unexpectedly, Sheng Chengjie didn't even look at him.

He could only bite the bullet and step forward: "Your Majesty, since the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, the Ministry of Household Affairs has been counting the people who suffered. Until now, they still can't have an exact number. That's why they haven't reported it to the court for a long time. Please ask your Majesty to come down. crime."

"I can't give a specific number. It's because the Ministry of Revenue's actions are ineffective. However, this is not reported to the court, but the Ministry of Revenue is no longer enough to support these refugees?" The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment continued to attack, and even mentioned corruption.

Just when everyone thought the household department was going to be in trouble, the prime minister hurried in.

He ignored the tense atmosphere in the court and immediately said in a panic: "Your Majesty, there is a plague of locusts in Hebei, which has eaten up all the food that was about to mature. Now the people are complaining, I'm afraid..."

"Father, this is a warning from God." Sheng Chengjie knew that it would be detrimental to him if he continued to say this, so he immediately answered, "I heard that the regent had exchanged the Xue family from prison a few days ago, and then he Natural disasters continue, this is obviously God warning us, and the Xue family does not understand."

His few words actually turned the disadvantage just now into an advantage.

When Sheng Jingze heard this, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Now the people are in dire straits. His Royal Highness does not think of a solution first but thinks of someone to blame for this. How does he look like a prince?"

An old fox is still an old fox after all. With just one sentence, he took the initiative into his own hands again.

"Okay, there is nothing to argue about these things." His Majesty's deep voice broke the quarrel, "Now we have to control the floods in Jiangnan and the locust plague in Hebei."

"The prince is the foundation of the country and cannot leave the capital at will. Then deal with the refugees who are often stranded in the country. Prince Regent, you are good at handling these governments, so you went to Hebei to control the locust plague. As for the floods in the south of the Yangtze River..." He said in I glanced around the hall and couldn't find anyone who could be sent out.

At this moment, Sheng Jingze glanced at the Minister of Punishment.

The Minister of Punishment immediately understood: "Your Majesty, although the eldest prince is outside at the moment, the second prince and the third prince are still in the capital. Then they also need to take up the important positions. Now is the time for them to gain experience."

After hearing this, Sheng Chengjie's face immediately turned cold.

"Okay, then let's ask the second prince to follow the regent to Hebei to deal with the disaster. As for the third prince, let's go to Jiangnan."

In this way, the matter is settled.

When Xue Jinruo returned to the Regent's Mansion, he happened to bump into Sheng Jingze who had just returned from the court.

Seeing his heavy expression, Xue Jinruo immediately realized that something had happened. He hurriedly went up to him and asked proactively: "Your Majesty, how are you doing?"

"There is a locust plague in Hebei. The situation is serious. I will go to Hebei today. During this period, the princess..."

Before Sheng Jingze could finish his words, Xue Jinruo immediately interrupted him: "I'll go with you."

"Since it is a locust plague, there is a high possibility of epidemics. I know some medical skills and can help you. What's more, when you leave, His Highness will definitely be in trouble. Instead of letting him snatch the military talisman, Let's go, why don't I go with you." Her subconscious told her that she must not stay in the capital.

Sheng Jingze was hesitant.

Xue Jinruo knew that it was useless to rely on himself, so he immediately looked at Xiao Yi beside him.

Xiao Yi hesitated for a moment and then agreed: "My lord, your body is not fully recovered yet. If there is an accident on the road, my subordinates and others have nothing to do. Why not ask the princess to follow you in case of emergency."

Sheng Jingze agreed to his words almost immediately.

Xue Jinruo received a positive answer and immediately went back to his house to pack his bags.

And Xue Xueyao here has also received the news.

She leaned lazily on the soft pillow, with a look of disdain on her face: "What's so good about that kind of remote country? It's better to stay in the capital and enjoy the blessings."
