Tightening his fingers and looking up at Hu Xun, who looked thoughtful, Hu Tianhao finally couldn't help but speak, "Mother, why didn't you finish what you were saying?"
Just let Xiaoqi stay there?
"It doesn't make any sense whether I finish saying this or not." Hu Xun finally sighed and raised his hand to touch Hu Tianhao's head.
"But if the Xiao family replaces us and becomes His Highness's heir, then for us..."
Before Hu Tianhao could finish his words, Hu Xun raised her hand and stopped him. "Your Highness glanced at me just now. Although this isn't the Crown Princess's residence, in front of Your Highness, He doesn't mind Xiaoqi's affairs. I clearly overstepped my bounds just now."
"But……"
"Your Highness didn't say anything when Xiaoqi said those words, and she didn't say anything until we left. This means she was giving face to the Hu family. The Hu family's status will not fall. It is also a warning to us to stay with you even in times of adversity. Your Highness, please remember this, but don't overreach and don't arrange everything around Your Highness according to our ideas."
Hu Xun wiped the sweat from his forehead, sighed, and continued, "No benevolent monarch would tolerate such a minister, let alone someone like Your Highness. You appear mild-mannered, but you actually remember everything. I just don't know when I'll settle the score with you, especially since we have such an agreement."
But she had to admit that His Highness had really grown up and was more capable than she had imagined.
Moreover, the Xiao family protects their own people, so why doesn’t Her Highness protect them?
That look clearly told her not to go too far. Since Xiao Qi had given her a way out, she should step down quickly. Don't make a fuss and let Xiao Qi enter the Crown Princess's Mansion, which would make the Hu family's position even more embarrassing.
Although he said so, His Highness was obviously protecting the little wolf cub with his eyes wide open.
Although she knew that Xiaoqi was right, she was a little unhappy that Xiaoqi was explaining things to her in such a way that was shorter than her.
So some things don't need to be said at all. The position of Princess Consort was obviously prepared for Xiaoqi, not to mention that it was the Hu family who proposed the agreement first.
Seeing that Hu Xun has already compromised with the current situation.
The emotion in Hu Tianhao's eyes became darker, and he lowered his eyes to cover up the dark light in his eyes.
And inside the house on the other side.
Seeing that Xiaoqi was still standing there and unwilling to move forward.
The boy was wearing a light-colored inner garment and a red coat with a stand-up collar embroidered with black edges. His hair was tied up high with a red and black headband. His delicate face was slightly tense, and he looked as if he was still in a bad mood.
Chu Ci waved at him, "What are you standing over there for? Come here."
Xiao Qi pursed his lips, paused, and finally couldn't help but walk over to Chu Ci's call and sat down two steps away from Chu Ci.
He poured himself a cup of tea angrily and drank half of it in one breath.
Are you so angry?
Chu Ci's fingertips unconsciously slid twice on the table, and she supported her cheeks with her hands, looking a little funny.
Then he lowered his eyes and said nothing.
The two of them were silent for too long, and finally, Xiaoqi, who had a more impatient temper, couldn't help but look over first.
It turned out that Chu Ci looked even more aggrieved than himself.
The corners of his lips twitched, "Your Highness?"
"Hmm?" Chu Ci raised her eyes and gave him a look.
You act like you can't even see how wronged I am.
