Quick Wear: The troublesome female supporting role was locked up by the boss and cried

Chapter 144 The childhood sweetheart who deceived the feelings of the sinister official (32)

That night——

While coaxing Ji's mother, Ji's father was organizing his thoughts in his head about what to do to tell his wife that the Regent had come in person to ask for his daughter's hand in marriage.

Without a word of complaint, he stood obediently at the door, waiting for his wife to relent.

After a long consideration, I tentatively changed the subject:

"My lady, the Regent came to visit me today and told me something important. I didn't agree to it, so I wanted to discuss it with you. This matter is related to Tang'er..."

Father Ji talked for a long time but there was no movement from Mother Ji. However, as soon as he mentioned Ji Chutang, there was immediate movement.

After a while, the door opened.

Ji Hong smiled ingratiatingly. The wind blew and he shivered because it was cold. He was afraid that his wife would catch a cold, so he quickly pulled his wife into the house.

At the same time, he felt proud and proud in his heart. You see, his wife was the most soft-hearted person. She didn't want him to suffer the cold. She was only angry for a short while and then opened the door and let him in.

Ji's mother didn't stop him.

But after entering the room, he immediately asked: "What did the Regent say today?"

Ji Hong held Ji's mother's hand and covered her hand happily. When he heard the question, he was stunned and remembered this incident.

He immediately told the story in detail to Ji's mother.

When it was mentioned that the Regent was coming to propose marriage, Ji's mother frowned, her face full of anxiety and worry.

She also didn't want her daughter to marry an ugly man. It would be so uncomfortable to face an ugly face every day.

Some wealth and glory are not necessarily to be enjoyed.

If Ji Hong hadn't had a good appearance, she wouldn't have married him so easily.

She knew her daughter was as superficial as she was.

Ji Chutang had no idea at this moment that her own mother had already directly defined her.

Ji Hong then talked about the conditions proposed by the Regent.

Ji's mother fell silent for a moment.

Her expression became extremely conflicted, and she was obviously wavering and madly excited. It was indeed not easy to find a man who could make such an offer.

The two discussed it again and again, but still couldn't come to a conclusion.

Finally, I decided to discuss it with my daughter the next day and ask for her opinion.

The candles in the room went out.

The house of the master of the Ji Mansion was plunged into darkness, but in the Regent's Mansion, there was a room with candles still lit, and a shadow of a person was reflected on the window.

It didn't move for a long time.

The chirping of insects outside the house made this space seem even quieter.

The figure moved, the candle went out, and the figure disappeared.

Qi Jingxiao lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. There seemed to be a lingering fragrance in the quilt, which made him feel at ease and restless at the same time.

A pretty smiling face was always on his mind.

the next day.

When the Ji family members eat, they do not follow the rigid rules such as not talking while eating or not talking while sleeping.

During the meal, Ji's mother mentioned to Ji Chutang that the Regent had visited the mansion yesterday.

He tentatively asked Ji Chutang whether he knew why the Regent came to his house yesterday.

Ji Chutang was happily drinking crucian carp and tofu soup. Upon hearing this, he looked up in a daze and looked at Ji's mother with clear eyes.

Yes, Ji's mother understood immediately.

This silly girl knows nothing.

Then Ji's mother put down the bowl, sighed deeply, and then looked at Ji Chutang with a loving look.

He said earnestly, "Tang'er, the Regent came to visit yesterday to ask for marriage. What do you think about this?"

"Cough-cough-"

Ji Chutang was drinking soup when he was suddenly startled by Ji's mother's words and choked.

Hua Rui, who was not far away, immediately came over to help Ji Chutang calm down. Ji Chutang waved his hand, and Hua Rui retreated obediently.

Ji Chutang asked quickly: "Didn't he want to?" She remembered clearly that he didn't agree to let her follow him at all.

Ji Chutang's words revealed some information.

Ji's mother listened to Ji Chutang intently and naturally heard something wrong.

He quickly interrupted and said seriously, "Wait, what do you mean he doesn't want to? Ji Chutang, explain it to me clearly."

This statement clearly indicated that there was some unclear relationship between his daughter and the Regent.

Ji Chutang also realized that he had let the cat out of the bag. His heart skipped a beat and he tried to make amends quickly, with cold sweat breaking out on his back.

"No, no, I just... I just accidentally heard the servants of the Prince Regent's Mansion gossiping that the Prince Regent didn't want to get married and didn't want to find a princess, so I said he didn't want to."

Ji Chutang's words were a little incoherent, but he still managed to finish his words haltingly.

Facing Ji's mother's suspicious gaze.

He pretended to be calm and smiled at his mother, barely dispelling Ji's mother's suspicion.

Mother Ji sighed again, then orally told Ji Chutang the conditions proposed by the Regent, and finally looked at her and said:

"Is Tang'er willing? Although this regent is a little ugly, he is indeed very sincere."

"But if Tang'er doesn't want to, then let's offend the Regent. At worst, we can ask your father to resign and we can move our family."

Ji Chutang's brain was spinning wildly. Ugly? Qi Jingxiao's charming and handsome face appeared in his mind, and he fell silent.

And she originally wanted to marry the Regent.

Now that she has such an opportunity, how could she not be tempted?

At the same time, because of her mission, if she could marry into the Regent's Palace and become the Regent's bedfellow, would she not worry about not finding opportunities to persuade him?

Ji Chutang didn't say anything and pretended to be thinking.

Then he raised his head and said solemnly to Ji's mother:

"Mother, I am willing. The Regent is very nice. If I marry her, I will be marrying above my station. Besides, I can't afford to delay any longer. He came at the right time. It can be considered fate."

This statement is very serious.

Mother Ji was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and felt that her daughter had indeed considered it carefully.

Ji's mother's mouth moved twice, but in the end she didn't say anything.

As long as their daughter is willing, they have no objection.

Qi Jingxiao was still unaware at the moment that what he had been dreaming about was about to come true, but he would know it soon.

……

Before Ji's father could reply to Qi Jingxiao.

There was chaos in Shangjing.

During the reign of the late emperor, the former crown prince had a son who was living outside and had already started a rebellion.

The emperor was furious.

All the officials in Shangjing City were in danger, and the situation in Shangjing was tense. The emperor's guards, the Jinlong Guards of the royal family, and the Longlin Guards of the regent often went in and out of various places in Shangjing City.

The once bustling streets of Shangjing are now deserted.

People would rather stay at home than go out.

In this case.

Ji's father naturally put aside the matter of replying to the Regent for the time being.

After all, the Regent is probably very busy right now.

He is the most trusted minister around the emperor and holds great power. At this time, he will naturally do his utmost to protect the safety of the Yu Dynasty.

After all, Yu Chao was gone, and his position as regent was no longer secure.
