Chapter 298
Jinxiu Pavilion of Marquis Mansion of Wu'an.

Wei Mo hurriedly appeared in the Nuan Pavilion, bowed and said back: "Master, we can't find Mrs. Zhao's son and his family."

Luo Er anxiously said: "Miss, what should I do?"

Xiao Jinxi's eyes darkened: "When did you see me?"

Wei Mo hurriedly replied: "It happened half a month ago."

Xiao Jinxi asked in confusion, "What happened half a month ago? Why didn't the teacher from my hometown report to the Hou Mansion? Did you find his teacher?"

Wei Mo replied: "Yes, we asked those neighbors and found the teacher. I heard that Zhao Mama's son went to his teacher's place to bid farewell half a month ago, and said that he would bring his family to the Marquis of Wu'an to visit relatives. "

Xiao Jinxi asked suspiciously: "Going to say goodbye in person?"

Luo Er was also puzzled and said: "They actually left by themselves. Then why didn't they come to the Hou Mansion?"

Wei Mo shook his head and said: "I don't know now, where did they go? We went to their residence to see. There is nothing abnormal in the residence, as if they packed up and left by themselves."

Xiao Jinxi shook her head and said, "No, it usually takes three days to send a letter from my hometown. Since I left half a month ago, how can I still send a letter to ask Nanny Zhao to go back to see her grandson?"

Wei Mo nodded and said: "The master is right. The subordinates are also puzzled."

Xiao Jinxi continued: "Back then, Mother Zhao sent him away just to get him out of the disputes in the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion. Mother Zhao had already told him about this. Only his teacher knew his identity."

"Over the past few years, his son has rarely come to the mansion."

"And why did you suddenly bring your whole family to the Hou Mansion to visit relatives. This farewell is very problematic in itself."

"By the way, what about the letter sent by Mother Zhao?"

Wei Mo's face showed embarrassment: "Master, after we couldn't find the person, we went to the post office to check the letter. As a result, the post post people couldn't find any trace of the letter."

"Besides, I heard that someone sent the letter to the post post in person. But there are many people who send letters to the post post every day, and the post post people have long lost track of the sender's appearance."

Xiao Jinxi's eyes darkened: "It seems that the letter was intercepted halfway."

"I was negligent. The son of Zhao Nanny has been sent away since he was 15 years old. After all these years, only his grandmother and Zhao Nanny know about his whereabouts. Zhao Nanny also protected him very well. But It’s also unavoidable to keep a hundred secrets.”

Wei Mo hurriedly comforted: "Master, I have arranged for someone to continue investigating in my hometown."

Xiao Jinxi nodded and said, "Okay, don't let grandma and the others know about this for now."

"Yes, master." Wei Mo bowed back.

Xiao Jinxi's voice turned cold, and she said angrily, "An Xue, go get ready, I'm going to the palace to meet Emperor Mingxi."

Everyone in the Warm Pavilion exclaimed instantly:
"Miss!"

"master!"

Luo Er immediately said anxiously: "Miss, why do you want to enter the palace? It's too dangerous!"

Wei Mo anxiously said: "Master, are you suspicious that Emperor Ming Xi did this? But it's too dangerous for you to enter the palace like this."

"It's okay." Xiao Jinxi shook her head and said, "I should have gone to the palace about my father's business."

Luo Er hastily persuaded: "Miss, let Big Brother Yi go with you, otherwise Big Brother Shi Yi will definitely be angry."

Xiao Jinxi was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and said: "Okay, send a message to Mo Yi and ask him to accompany me into the palace."

"Great." Luo Er felt relieved just now: "Miss, you have to be careful."

Xiao Jinxi smiled and said comfortingly: "Luo Er, don't worry, Mo Yi is the eleventh emperor's uncle of Emperor Mingxi. On the bright side, he still has to be scrupulous about this status."

Apocalypse Palace, Royal Study Room.

Li Yue hurried in, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the Eleventh Prince and Miss Xiao are here to see you."

Emperor Ming Xi, who was lowering his head to review the memorial, raised his head instantly, with a murderous look in his eyes, and the two finally came.

After a moment, he smiled: "Xuan."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Yue hurriedly took the order, thinking in his heart, alas, I'm afraid that life will be uneasy today.

After a while, Mo Yi and Xiao Jinxi had already stepped into the hall, bowed and saluted: "See Your Majesty."

Looking at the two people in the palace, Emperor Ming Xi concealed his anger, but smiled on his face: "Uncle Eleven, Miss Xiao, I don't know why you two entered the palace?"

I saw Xiao Jinxi with a sad face, bowed back and said: "Your Majesty, I have just received a letter from my brother, and I just found out that my father was accidentally poisoned and his condition is critical. Grandma was also very worried when she heard the news. So I came here to invite I will go to the north to visit my father. I implore the emperor for permission."

Emperor Mingxi's eyes darkened: "It turns out that Miss Xiao has already received the news from the northern border. Xiao Shizi's move is not in compliance with the rules. The matter of Marquis Wu'an is the military situation of the northern border. Xiao Shizi actually told me for personal gain, what should Xiao Shizi do?" crime?"

Xiao Jinxi bowed and replied: "Your Majesty, as a son, my brother lost his sense of proportion when he heard the bad news and worried about his father. I hope the Emperor will forgive me."

Emperor Ming Xi said in a cold voice: "Miss Xiao, the law will not show mercy."

Mo Yi stepped forward and replied loudly: "Your Majesty, the law is nothing more than human feelings."

"Marquis Wu'an of the past dynasties have contributed a lot to guarding the northern border. However, the mothers, wives and children who are far away in the imperial capital Wu'anhou's mansion can only look forward to it. No matter how many times they die, they can only look at the northern border from the imperial capital."

"Now that I have learned about Marquis Wu'an's condition, I would like to ask the emperor to grant me an extrajudicial favor and allow Marquis Wu's relatives to go to the northern border to visit Marquis Wu'an."

Hearing this, Emperor Mingxi's eyes darkened: "Uncle Eleven, you are the prince of Tianqi, my Tianqi law is strict, how can you easily violate it?"

"However, since the eleven emperor uncles have said it, the Marquis of Wu'an of the past dynasties have contributed a lot. Well, today I will show mercy outside the law, and I will pardon Xiao Hengyu's crime of leaking military information."

"However, Marquis Wu'an of all dynasties guarded the northern border, and his family stayed behind in the imperial capital. This has been the case since the founding of the country."

"Miss Xiao, the second wife of the mansion went to the northern border privately before. I have turned a blind eye to this matter and have not committed any crime."

"Nowadays, Marquis Wu'an's condition is a top secret in the army. If Marquis Wu's family members go to the northern border at this time, they will definitely attract suspicion. Once Marquis Wu'an's condition is leaked, the northern border will be in danger."

Xiao Jinxi hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, the courtiers must be careful and never reveal their whereabouts."

Emperor Ming Xi yelled angrily: "Miss Xiao, there is no absolute. What if the illness of Marquis Wu An is leaked, and if this causes war in the northern border, so what?"

"As the founding marquis' mansion, the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion should put the people first. Miss Xiao, as the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, you must lead by example, and don't tarnish the reputation of the Marquis of Founding Mansion."

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxi smiled in his heart, but after a long time, he bowed and replied: "What the emperor said is true. If this causes war, the Marquis of Wu'an really cannot bear the responsibility for this crime."

"The court lady's request just now was indeed reckless. The court lady retracts the request and hopes that the emperor will forgive her."

"That's all." Emperor Ming Xi continued impatiently, "Uncle Eleven, Miss Xiao, if you have nothing else to do, just kneel down."

Xiao Jinxi stared at Emperor Mingxi behind the dragon case, and continued: "Your Majesty, grandmother also persuaded the minister before, saying that this action is not in accordance with the rules, and this is the willful act of the minister."

"However, my grandmother is also very worried about my father, and my servant is really worried about my grandmother's health."

"Your Majesty, Madam Zhao has always been proficient in medicinal food, and her son has also learned the truth about it. The servant girl wants to send Mama Zhao's son to the north to take care of his father who is seriously ill. This will also comfort grandma and make grandma feel at ease .I also hope that the emperor will grant you permission."

Hearing this, Emperor Mingxi's eyes darkened: "Miss Xiao, I have said that this is an extraordinary period. Once the matter of Marquis Wu'an is leaked, the northern border will be in danger."

"Now, Prince Xiao has already rushed to the northern border. Marquis Wu'an has his prince to take care of him. I believe he will be able to save the day."

"At this time, no one in the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion is allowed to go to the northern border without purpose. Miss Xiao, don't act willfully again."

Mo Yi immediately continued: "Your Majesty, the two major founding marquises have contributed to Sheji, and it is only natural for Xi'er to do this. I hope the Emperor will be extra merciful."

Emperor Mingxi yelled angrily: "Uncle Eleven, just pardoning Xiao Hengyu's crime is already looking at the uncle's affection."

"However, the Eleventh Emperor has been away from Tianqi for many years and is not familiar with the Tianqi Dynasty. Please don't intervene in this matter again."

"And after you returned to Tianqi, you didn't accept Tianqi's canon again. If that's the case, please don't interfere with Tianqi's government anymore! Or, the eleventh uncle wants to invite Prince Yu to come forward again!"

Xiao Jinxi's eyes darkened, but she smiled in her heart, Murong Xuan, so you already knew about the relationship between Zhao Nanny and Xiao Yun!

Hearing this, Mo Yi immediately answered: "Mo Yi doesn't dare. It's just..."

However, before the words were finished, Xiao Jinxi took them over: "Mo Yi, that's all. The emperor's concern is also for the northern border. I am indeed reckless today. Your majesty, the courtiers and daughters will retire first."

Hearing this, Emperor Ming Xi had doubts in his heart, Xiao Jinxi was so easy to forget!It took a while before he spoke: "Well, kneel down."
