Chapter 31 Who Knows It's Enough
The Hall of Supreme Harmony had already dispersed, and all the officials in the hall bowed to Mrs. Xiao, and then retreated. The speed was so fast that they were afraid that the fish in the pond would be affected.

"Madam, I will send a car to take you back to your residence immediately, okay?" Prince Yu stepped forward and bowed in salute.

Mrs. Xiao replied after hearing the words: "Thank you, Prince Yu, but the carriage of the Hou Mansion is already waiting outside the palace, so I won't bother you."

"My lord, you are the emperor's fourth uncle and an elder. Please return Xi'er's Geng Tie to me as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Prince Yu sighed in his heart, and replied: "I understand, old madam, go slowly."

Marquis Wen Ding on the side said, "Old lady, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you are even more aggressive!"

Mrs. Xiao replied with a faint smile after hearing the words: "Marquis Wen Ding has won the award. Although the old man is old, his body is still strong, so he must protect his granddaughter."

"It's your Mansion of Marquis Wending, a scholarly family, don't lose the character of a scholarly family."

"You..." Marquis Wen Ding was furious when he heard this.

"I'm leaving. Xi'er, let's go." Before Marquis Wending could finish speaking, Mrs. Xiao flicked her sleeves and turned to leave.

"Yes, grandma." Xiao Jinxi replied obediently, and helped Mrs. Xiao out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Prince Yu on the side looked at the two founding marquises facing each other tit for tat, and sighed silently again in his heart, alas, he really should learn from the old ten and return to seclusion as soon as possible.

Looking at the grandparents and grandchildren going away, Dugu Ziyan's eyes were full of scrutiny. Was Mrs. Xiao's actions today, or Miss Xiao's actions?
Xiao Jinxi supported his grandmother and walked slowly to Qiankun Gate. Xiao Zhong was already waiting beside the carriage. When he saw the two of them, he stepped forward and saluted: "Old Madam, Eldest Miss."

Mrs. Xiao said, "Go back home."

"Yes." Xiao Zhong replied with a bow.

A group of people in the distance saw the two of them, and they all looked around curiously...
"Hey, look, Mrs. Xiao and Miss Xiao have come out."

"what's the situation?"

"You don't know yet. At the end of the early court, Mrs. Xiao and Miss Xiao held the iron coupons of the Dan Shu, the marriage letter, and the Geng Tie, and entered the palace directly from the Qiankun Gate. The guards guarding the gate did not dare to stop them when they saw the iron coupons of the Dan Shu .”

"Look, Miss Xiao only has the iron certificate of the Dan book in her hand, and she hasn't seen the marriage letter or the Geng post. This can't be to divorce the engagement!"

"Retire! How is it possible, that is the honor of a queen!"

"How is it impossible? Didn't you hear about what happened at Xiangguo Temple yesterday?"

"Miss Xiao, as the first lady of the Founding Marquis's Mansion, is proud and arrogant, so naturally she can't bear it!"

"Oh, I heard about that, but didn't you say later that Miss Dugu was attacked by a swarm of bees, and the emperor just happened to pass by and saved her?"

"Oh, who knew, what a coincidence!"

"Hush, keep your voice down, are you courting death?"

"Yeah, shhh"...

The carriage of the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion traveled slowly, leaving a group of people watching from a distance, and leaving behind various speculations.

The fourth floor of the Suzaku branch of Sihai Bank.

Qingyu bowed and saluted and said: "Master, the eldest lady has come out, and the marriage letter and geng post are no longer in her hands, it should be completed. For the specific situation, I have to wait for news from Muchen."

The man heard the words and said: "Okay, let Rong Feng spread the news of Xiangguo Temple to the state capitals in advance, and then spread the news of today's incident in two days. In addition, let Rongfeng speed up the matter in the northern border."

"Yes, master." Qing Yu bowed back upon hearing this.

The man handed Qing Yu a small wooden box on the table, and said, "This is what Qing Luan prepared for Yun Shang, give it to her."

"Yes, master." Qingyu took the things and bowed back.

In front of the Wu'an Hou's Mansion.

Xiao Hengyu waited anxiously for a long time, and finally saw the grandparent and grandson returning, and stepped forward to pick them up one by one: "Grandmother, Xi'er, you are back."

"Brother, didn't you go to the capital today?" Xiao Jinxi asked.

"No, brother, don't worry, I'll wait for you to come back." Xiao Hengyu replied.

Shuntian Mansion is in charge of the patrol and security of Tianqi Imperial Capital, and under it are the Gyeonggi Office and the City Patrol Division.

According to the ancestral system of the Xiao family, from the age of ten, the son of the Xiao family went to the northern region to practice for three months every year, and stayed in the imperial capital for the rest of the time. After the [-]th weak crown, the Shuntian Mansion arranged some official positions and had the right to practice.

But now, what Xiao Hengyu is receiving is a idle job.

"Let's go, let's go back to Fu'an Hall to talk." Mrs. Xiao said.

"Yes, grandma." The siblings replied.

Fu An Tang Tea House.

"Xiao Zhong, let someone guard the Fu'an Hall." Mrs. Xiao ordered.

"Yes." Xiao Zhong bowed and retreated upon hearing this.

"Sister, is everything going well?" Xiao Hengyu asked worriedly.

Xiao Jinxi smiled knowingly, and said: "Don't worry, brother, my grandmother and I will go out together, and it will naturally be done beautifully. Emperor Mingxi has withdrawn the marriage letter and Geng Tie, and the marriage has been cancelled."

"Yu'er, if Prince Yu didn't send Xi'er's Geng Tie back today, and tomorrow morning the court ends, you go to the palace gate to block him, and you must take back the Geng Tie." Mrs. Xiao ordered.

"Okay, grandma, don't worry, I will definitely get the Geng Tie back." Xiao Hengyu replied upon hearing this.

"Xi'er, you child, the Hall of Supreme Harmony actually said that about yourself." Mrs. Xiao scolded.

"It's okay, grandma." Xiao Jinxi said with a knowing smile.

"Sister, what did you say?" Xiao Hengyu asked worriedly after hearing the words.

Xiao Jinxi smiled mischievously, and replied: "Brother, don't worry, grandma loves Xi'er too much. Now, the most important thing is that the marriage can be withdrawn, and nothing else matters."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hengyu shook his head helplessly and said, "You..."

"Brother, your job in Gyeonggi is also empty. Try to go as little as possible these days. Emperor Mingxi has suffered such a big loss today, so don't let Emperor Mingxi take advantage of it." Xiao Jinxi continued.

"Yes, Yu'er, be careful in everything." Mrs. Xiao also instructed.

Xiao Hengyu replied after hearing the words: "Okay, I understand. Father just went to the northern border, and there are still many things to be arranged at the dark guard, so I will stop going to the capital to join in the fun."

"Brother is really smart." Xiao Jinxi praised without hesitation with a knowing smile.

Xiao Jinxi continued: "Brother, tell Chu Yi to guard the place. From now on, it is estimated that many people will be restless."

"Okay, I will arrange it." Xiao Hengyu replied.

Mrs. Xiao looked at the pair of grandchildren, smiled gratifiedly, and said, "Xi'er, Yu'er, the men of Marquis of Wu'an have guarded the northern border for generations, in order to stabilize the border and make the people of Tianqi live and work in peace and contentment."

"But today's Emperor Mingxi is no longer the Taizu of that day, and the emperor's heart has long been different. Then my Marquis of Wu'an House does not need to be blindly loyal. The people are the most important, the community is second, and the king is the least."

"Children, as long as my Marquis of Wu'an Mansion doesn't let the people of Tianqi down, that's enough!"

Hearing this, Xiao Hengyu was startled, maybe what his grandmother said today was something he hadn't thought about!

But Xiao Jinxi smiled knowingly when she heard the words, grandmother is really wise!In the last life, if it wasn't for my stupidity, why would the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion, which has been involved for more than 200 years, suffer a catastrophe?
The two brothers and sisters bowed and saluted and replied: "Yes, grandma, the child understands."
