Xiqiu seemed to understand something. When the Marquis went out to war for three years, by the time he returned to the Capital, there was already a change in the regime, with Emperor Dezong on the throne. During this period of turmoil, the Marquis's supply of provisions would certainly have been affected.
"At that time, it was Lord Hu who was working tirelessly for the Marquis at the Ministry of War, ensuring the supply of provisions without interruption due to his mediation."
In this way, the Hu Family also had done a favor for the Xiao Family.
"So, after the Marquis safely returned to the Capital, he hosted a banquet at the mansion to entertain Lord Hu. At that time..." Nanny Cen glanced at Xiqiu and whispered, "At that time, Fourth Master was still in swaddling clothes, and it just so happened that Madam Hu had given birth to a daughter a few days prior. So, the Old Marquis, in a tipsy state, decided to betroth Fourth Master and Miss Hu."
