Chapter 59 Don't Stop
In front of the Wu'an Hou's Mansion.

The guard at the gate stepped forward and bowed to salute, "Eunuch Li, what is your business in the Marquis Mansion? Please come in!"

"Our family was ordered by the emperor to come to find the son, please go and ask the son to come out." Li Yue said.

Hearing the words, the guard bowed again and replied: "Eunuch Li, if you want to pass on a word of mouth, why don't you please move to the main hall, and we will invite your son right away."

"No need, hurry to find the son, don't delay the emperor's business." Li Yue said lightly.

"Yes, Eunuch Li, please wait a moment." The guard replied, and Fang turned and entered the Hou Mansion.

After a while, Xiao Hengyu came out from the mansion, bowed and said: "Eunuch Li."

Li Yue bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty. Your Majesty ordered Xuanwu Anhou's son to enter the palace immediately."

"Eunuch Li, may I ask why the emperor called me into the palace?" Xiao Hengyu asked.

"My son, the emperor is very concerned about Miss Xiao's siege of horses and Zhao's second mansion, and asked my son to follow this old slave into the palace immediately." Eunuch Li Yue bowed and saluted again.

"Okay, Eunuch Li, please wait a moment, and I will follow you into the palace immediately after I tell my grandmother." Xiao Hengyu replied.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is very concerned about this matter. Please don't delay, and follow your servant into the palace immediately." Eunuch Li Yue bowed and saluted again.

After a while, Xiao Hengyu turned around and told the guards: "Tell the old lady, the emperor ordered me to enter the palace to understand the affairs of the Ma and Zhao Erfu. I will return to the mansion after the matter is over. Please rest assured, grandma."

"Yes, son." The guard bowed and replied after hearing the words.

"My lord, please."

"Eunuch Li, please."

After everyone walked away, the guard turned around and entered the Hou's mansion. At the corner, he bowed and said: "Commander, the prince is gone."

Chu Yi's eyes narrowed, and he ordered: "Okay, you can go out later and follow the plan."

"Yes, Commander." The guard bowed back.

In front of Zhao Jiang's mansion, the imperial historian.

Dali Temple Minister Liu Zigao's eyes were fixed, and he said: "Master Zhao, Miss Xiao of the Marquis of Wu'an, sued Zhao Zhe and Ma Jian for making insulting remarks and insulting the prostitute of the Marquis of Jianguo. "

Zhao Jiang and Ma Ming on the side felt their legs go weak when they heard the words, and they were struggling to support their bodies.

Zhao Jiang said anxiously in an instant: "That's not right! Mr. Liu, it is the Second Miss Xiao who is being insulted by the dog, not the prostitute of the Founding Marquis's Mansion, not the Eldest Miss Xiao."

Ma Ming also said anxiously: "Yes! Master Liu, you made a mistake. She is not a prostitute."

At this moment, Zhao Zhe has been escorted to the gate of the mansion by two yamen servants.

"Father, mother, save me, father...!" Zhao Zhe looked at the situation in front of the mansion, and his legs went weak in fright.

I saw Dali Temple Minister Liu Zigao turned around and bowed to Xiao Jinxi and said: "Miss Xiao, please let them understand."

Xiao Jinxi smiled slightly when she heard the words, took Xiao Jinxuan's hand one by one, stepped forward, and said loudly: "Xuan'er was already recorded under my grandmother's name when she was enlightened at the age of three. Xuan'er is the direct daughter of my Marquis of Wuan's mansion .”

Zhao Jiang and Ma Ming took a few steps back when they heard the words...
"Father", "Master", "Dad", "Master", everyone exclaimed...
Zhao Jiang came back to his senses instantly: "How is it possible? I've never heard of this before!"

Xiao Jinxi sneered when he heard the words: "Why, Mr. Zhao, is it possible that I have to report the genealogy of my Marquis of Wu'an Mansion to your Mr. Zhao Jiang?"

"Lord Zhao, as a royal official, you are responsible for supervision, so you should be familiar with the laws of Tianqi. May I ask what crime should you be guilty of for speaking rudely and insulting the heir of the founding marquis?"

Zhao Jiang and Ma Ming's faces are pale at this moment...

Ma Ming came back to his senses in an instant, bowed and saluted: "Miss Xiao, Miss Xiao, I am ignorant, and I hope you will forgive me for the crime of disrespect."

Xiao Jinxi said again: "Master Ma, this crime has not been settled yet, how can we forgive you?"

Turning around and bowing towards Dali Temple Minister Liu Zigao, he said: "Master Liu, it seems that we have to ask you to enforce the law impartially in this matter."

When Liu Zigao heard the words, Fang stepped forward and said loudly: "At the beginning of the founding of our Tianqi Dynasty, we established strict laws. Anyone who despises, insults, and slanders the heirs of the founding marquis's mansion without reason will be sentenced to three to five years of imprisonment. As for the weaker crown, before the weaker crown, if there is another crime, he will not be able to take part in the imperial examinations for life, and he will not be allowed to be an official in the court. And if the circumstances are serious, he will be sentenced to death.”

Hearing the words, the people from Ma and Zhao's two houses immediately fell to the ground, panicked...
At this moment, Zhao Zhe and Ma Jian were so frightened that they cried loudly: "Father, mother, don't let the child be imprisoned, father, mother, save the child quickly, father, mother..."

The two wives, Ma and Zhao, were so frightened that they crawled in front of Xiao Jinxi, crying and begging: "Miss Xiao, Miss Xiao, please forgive me..."

Xiao Zhong at the side saw it and immediately moved forward to separate the two of them: "Miss, be careful."

"Miss Xiao, Miss Xiao, the child is young and ignorant, please forgive the child a lot, the lady kowtowed to you, please raise your hands high... the lady kowtowed to you... "

The two wives, Ma and Zhao, are also the wives of officials of the third and fourth ranks, but at the moment they are crying in the street like ordinary women...
On the other hand, Xiao Jinxuan looked at the four people who were crying, but at this moment her heart softened, and she tugged on Xiao Jinxi's sleeve: "Big sister, otherwise the sentence will be lighter."

Xiao Jinxi shook her head, Xiao Jinxuan saw Fang helplessly and stopped speaking.

And Xiao Jinxi also saw that Zhao Jiang and Ma Ming fell to the ground in panic just now, but after a while, they stood up and stood there quietly, never like the two women... ·
After a long time, the two looked at each other, and they both stepped forward to help the two women: "Madam, get up, don't be rude again."

"But, sir, what about my son?"

"Get up..." Zhao Jiang and Ma Ming scolded angrily.

At this moment, the two women stood up obediently, walked to the side of Zhao Zhe and Ma Jian, and hugged them, "Mother, what should I do baby..."

Only Zhao Jiang and Ma Ming scolded angrily: "Shut up, don't cry anymore..."

At this moment, Zhao Zhe and Ma Jian were so frightened that they stopped crying!

Zhao Jiang angrily reprimanded again: "I always tell you, don't act indiscriminately, and don't bully others with your power. What about you! Take what your father said as a deaf ear. Today, you have caused a catastrophe, and even your father can't help you Yes. It is the disaster you caused yourself, so you will bear it yourself. If you dare to cry out, I will kill you immediately for my father!" !"

Ma Ming also yelled: "Come here, take Madam back, Ma Jian will be taken away by Mr. Liu and can't be stopped!"

The steward of the second residence immediately stepped forward upon hearing the words, bowed and replied, "Yes, my lord." "Ma'am, let's go."

At this moment, the two women had no choice but to let go and walk away lonely.

And the second son was so frightened that he grabbed the sleeves of the two women: "Mother."

Seeing this, the two housekeepers quickly stretched out their hands to separate and took away the two wives.

Up to this moment, Xiao Jinxi's eyes revealed admiration!
And Yin Gao Yiming of Shuntian Mansion, who had been watching from the sidelines, saw that the situation was clear and did not cause public security disturbances in the imperial capital, so it was not his business, so he turned around and left...
Only Liu Zigao, Minister of Dali Temple, shouted: "Come here, take the two offenders back to Dali Temple."

"Yes, my lord." Several yamen servants bowed and replied, stepping up to escort the second son one by one...

"Lord Liu, wait a minute." Only Xiao Jinxi said.
