The Second Life of Hu Liena
40. Don't call me Princess.

Hu Boqin walked over, following Kasim Hai's footsteps from behind.

Before Eunuch Hai boarded his horse carriage, Hu Boqin instantly gave a bag of gold coins to Eunuch Hai.

"Eunuch Hai, please accept this, think of it as a thank you from our family." Hu Boqin said to Eunuch Hai.

Eunuch Hai tried to resist, but Hu Boqin did not want to give up and still gave the coin bag to him.

"Please accept it, Eunuch."

Eunuch Hai finally received the bag of coins Hu Boqin gave him, with a smile that expanded on his lips.

"Good! Thank you, Prime Minister." He kept a bag of coins under his sleeve.

After saying goodbye once more, Eunuch Hai left the Prime Minister's residence.

"Xiulins!" Shouted Hu Boqin after being back in the Hall.

Xiulin who was sitting beside his mother, immediately turned his head towards Hu Boqin.

"Me, Dad!" Xiulin.

"Yes, you! who else!" Hu Boqin Cibir.

He remembered Eunuch Hai's remark about Xiulin, hence, Hu Boqin immediately shouted towards him after returning from ushering in the Emperor's confidant.

"What's wrong? Why is Dad yelling like that at me?" Xiulin said as if he did not feel wrong at all.

Hu Boqin snorted, she was inexhaustible with Xiulin's behavior that always gave her a headache right now.

"Still fighting innocent? did you forget what Kasim Hai said?" Snap Hu Boqin hard.

"My daughter is not wrong! the wrong one is Hu Liena!" Accuse Yueqin of defending her daughter, Xiulin.

He was still unwilling, if Xiulin was to be scooped up like that. Although it was possible, her daughter was a little careless earlier. However, he would not take it for granted, which should be blamed on Hu Liena, not her daughter. If the Daughter had to be blamed in such a way, Yueqin would have set up a body to defend the Daughter.

"On what basis, are you accusing Hu Liena of guilt?" Hu Boqin asked who was staring fiercely at Yueqin, His wife.

"You ask on what basis, sir? Heh ... funny, it was obvious that he had deliberately come late to meet Eunuch Hai. Still in martial, in such a way again ...," Yueqin told Hu Boqin.

Hu Boqin's face immediately flushed red with anger, she had never been humiliated like this before.

"Yueqin up! how dare you defy my words! didn't you hear that, Eunuch Hai said. Your daughter has no manners, still mending she just reprimanded him. Since he still considers my position as Prime Minister, otherwise, your daughter will be doomed if I don't defend her right away."

Yueqin looked in disbelief with her Husband's words that seemed to defend Hu Liena.

"Then what about Hu Liena? does he also have decency?" Yueqin said no less loudly with Hu Boqin.

"Stop calling my daughter that name, even your current status should pay respect to her. The title Princess Xia given by His Majesty the Emperor, was not just a joke."

Hu Boqin's bluff told Yueqin, she was annoyed with his wife who always kept on cornering Hu Liena.

Yueqin snorted, she wanted to reject the words of her Husband. But afraid of the punishment he would receive if he insulted the title given by the Emperor directly.

"Hurry, return! I'm sick of you two's behavior." Hu Boqin finally relented, feeling lazy to argue with Yueqin.

Yueqin and Xiulin, finally left the Hall despite grumbling indistinctly.

"Mom see that? Dad is now siding with Hu Liena, the woman***** that, Mom." Whine Xiulin to his mother who is now also condemning Hu Boqin's decision to defend Hu Liena.

"You take it easy, I won't let you either. Basic Hu Liena, just got the title of Princess Xia, already many are supporting her." Reply Yueqin who was also feeling annoyed to Hu Liena.

"Then what will you do next?" Asked Xiulin who had started to calm down.

Yueqin stopped her steps, and turned to face Xiulin.

"We're not going to do anything for now." Yueqin's repulsive reply left Xiulin shocked.

"What's? I'm sure we won't do anything?" Xiulin asked in astonishment at his mother's decision.

Yueqin nodded surely, she had already thought from earlier. It was better for her to prepare her Daughter for the Palace banquet first, rather than having to take care of Hu Liena's endless troubles.

While Xiulin frowned, he did not fully understand the intent of Yueqin's words.

"Mom has thought about it carefully, at this time we will only focus on the Palace banquet. Who knows, we'll find a powerful ally to fight back against that Hu Liena." Obviously Yueqin was at length.

Xiulin looked happy, his mother's proposal was very reasonable. As Hu Liena had now grown stronger, the only path for Xiulin was to find a stronger ally like his mother had said.

"Mother's right! I should be able to be stronger, than the ***** Hu Liena." Xiulin was full of hatred.

"Good! You should be, you're stronger than he is." Said Yueqin giving spirit to her daughter.

Both mother and daughter support each other. Unfortunately, Yueqin always motivated her son, to always do wrong in his life.

The gerha flowers...

"Miss! uh, I mean ... Her Highness Princess Xia! I congratulate you." Said Luqiu with sparkling eyes staring at Hu Liena.

Hu Liena chuckled at Luqiu who looked nervously faced off against her.

"He-he .. You don't have to be that condescending, Luqiu. The two of us have been together for a long time, so you can call me as usual."

"No! Where it may be like that, I can be punished later, Princess." Said Luqiu puckering with her stance.

Hu Liena covered her mouth using one hand, she felt amused by Luqiu's behavior that suddenly became like this.

It was natural, if he wanted to call her Princess as well. But Hu Liena felt strange about the call, let alone the call coming out of Luqiu's mouth which had helped her so much all along.

"Well, you can call me Princess if you want, but ...,"

"But what, Princess?" Luqiu asked astonished.

"But that's when we're just outside, how? If it's in a closed room like this, you can call me as usual, or Hu Liena." Hu Liena said to Luqiu who was now gasping to listen to her words.

"N-no! I dare not! how could I dare to call you by name only. No, no, no. .. This is not good for you." Reject Luqiu with a nervous feeling.
