"Master Hou, is this necessary?" Yun Xi smiled.

"Of course it's necessary, otherwise it would be bad for your reputation if you were to have your engagement withdrawn hastily."

"Master Marquis, I don't care about my reputation. If my husband's family likes my reputation, it's okay not to marry me."

"Hey, you look so much like your mother." The Marquis felt a trace of unspeakable melancholy in his heart. Many years ago, there was a stupid girl like Yun Xi in front of him. She smiled and said to him: "Fame. , is what I, Lin Yuyao, don’t care about the least.”

"Grandpa Hou knows about my mother?" Yun Xi's heart skipped a beat.

"Of course I know. Your father and I were both your grandfather's subordinates back then." The Marquis' thoughts were pulled away. He seemed to see a smart girl in the military camp who always greeted them. The beacon light shines on Xijing, and I feel uneasy. Yazhang bid farewell to Fengque, and the iron cavalry circled Dragon City. The snow is dark, the flag paintings are withered, and the wind is heavy with the sound of drums. It is better to be a centurion than a scholar.

In that era of war and chaos, with this girl's greetings, I felt a sense of comfort.

Yun Xi did not continue to ask. The elders had the memories of their elders, so it was not good to keep asking.

Zheng's side also knew that the Marquis was coming. Got some ideas.

These days, she was very tired. She and Xiao Wenhao went out to ask for help every day with money in their pockets, but they had nowhere to go. They sought medical treatment in a hurry, encountered many scammers, spent a lot of money, and nothing was settled. And because Mrs. Zheng always went to the Yamen to deliver food boxes to Xiao Yunchen, the Yamen did not let her in.

She has been so anxious these days that her hair has turned a lot white and she is restless. Today, she heard that the Marquis of Wu'an was here, and she was overjoyed.

Everyone in Kyoto knows who Wu Anhou is.

After winning the battle and returning home triumphantly, he is now in the spotlight. If he is willing to help, there will be hope for Chen'er when he comes out.

But the Hou Mansion had come to the Censor's Mansion before to cancel the engagement, and the Hou Mansion was responsible for the fault. Maybe they could use this to ask the old lady to ask the Marquis to help.

Shouning Court

The old lady was resting in bed. She has been ill these days for two reasons: Xiao Yunxi always disobeys her, and Yun Chen is still in jail. When Mrs. Zheng went out to find someone to collect money, all the money was given by the old lady, but it was all wasted and there was no reply at all. Although she was anxious, there was nothing she could do.

At this moment, Mrs. Zheng was heard saying that when she learned that the Marquis was coming, she wondered: "Do you know what he is here for?"

"It seems to be an apology for breaking off the engagement before."

"Then his wife is coming with you?"

"No, the Marquis will come with his family."

"Well, that's okay. His wife is here and we can't talk. She's too powerful."

But the next second the old lady shook her head again: "We can't talk about it even if your brother is here."

"Mom, my brother is not here, he went to the Yushitai." Mrs. Zheng said quickly.

"Ah, why did the Marquis go to the Yushitai when he was still here? Help me up. The Marquis is here, so of course he has to go out and say hello."

Mrs. Zheng helped the old lady get up and begged: "Mother, please, we must rescue Chen'er."

"Don't talk for a while." The old lady told her.

The two of them went to the main hall, taking Xiao Wenhao with them. The Marquis stood up and handed over his hands: "I have seen the old lady. I was rude and did not go to see you."

The old lady returned the favor and said with a smile: "The Imperial Palace has no etiquette and no one entertains me. Please don't blame me, Lord Marquis."

"Old madam, you're welcome. I am chatting with Yun Xi right now. Brother Wen Yu has something to do at the Yushitai, so he went to do some business first. Official matters are always more important."
