Chapter 106 You Go Help That Child, Okay?
At night, the teahouse of Fu'an Hall in the Marquis of Wu'an.

At this moment, Xiao Jinxi helped Mrs. Xiao into the tea hall and sat on the main seat.

I saw Xiao Jinxi took the tea cup from the side, handed it to Mrs. Xiao, and said, "Grandma, drink tea. Grandma, it's so late, thank you for your hard work."

Mrs. Xiao took the tea cup and smiled: "It's okay, since I heard Xi'er last time, grandma has always wanted to see him, he protects my granddaughter so much, grandma must thank him well."

When Xiao Jinxi heard this, she smiled knowingly: "Hey... grandma."

A moment later, a white shadow flashed into the teahouse, Mrs. Xiao fixed her eyes and saw the man's sculpted face, with picturesque eyebrows and eyes, and a faint smile on his face.

The man stepped forward, bowed deeply, and said politely: "Mo Yi has seen the old lady."

Mrs. Xiao got up quickly when she saw it, and replied: "The Eleventh Prince is very old."

Mo Yi quickly walked up to support the old lady, and smiled slightly: "Old lady, now I'm just Mo Yi, you don't need to be like this."

Mrs. Xiao nodded and smiled: "Okay, Eleventh Prince, please sit down."

Hearing Mrs. Xiao still calling him Eleventh Prince, Mo Yi smiled helplessly, and said one by one: "Old lady, you sit first."

"Yes, grandma, you sit down." Xiao Jinxi also stepped forward to help Mrs. Xiao sit on the main seat.

"Hey... alright, you all sit down." Mrs. Xiao nodded and sat down.

Mo Yi and Xiao Jinxi just turned around and sat down.

Only Mrs. Xiao said again: "Eleventh Prince, I heard from Xi'er earlier that you specially found that jade bracelet for her to recuperate. I am here to thank the Eleventh Prince for Xi'er."

Mo Yi smiled slightly when he heard the words, and replied: "Old Madam, Xi'er's matter is naturally Mo Yi's matter, so you don't need to be so polite."

Mrs. Xiao glanced at her granddaughter, and smiled knowingly: "Okay, the old man will not be polite."

Zhu said again: "I just heard from Xi'er that you have something to ask me?"

Xiao Jinxi smiled slightly and said, "Grandmother, today I talked with Mo Yi about the time when he was taken back by the Mo family, but there were some things that I was very confused about, so I wanted to ask my grandmother."

Mo Yi!Hearing her granddaughter calling her the Eleventh Prince, Mrs. Xiao was taken aback for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "Okay, if you have any doubts, tell me."

Hearing this, Mo Yi bowed and replied: "Old Madam, Mo Yi heard from my grandmother that the letter that was handed over to Tianqi back then did not mention the matter of gold. This matter was brought up by my uncle in private with Emperor Zong Yuan. I don't know How did you know, old lady?"

I only heard Xiao Jinxi continue to say: "Yes, grandma, the national treasury was in short supply at that time, but Emperor Zongyuan was so afraid of the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion, so it was certainly impossible to tell the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion about this. Grandma, how do you know this?"

Mrs. Xiao finally smiled knowingly when she heard the words, and said slowly: "Ever since I heard Xi'er mention the Eleventh Prince that you returned to Tianqi, I also expected that the Eleventh Prince will come to ask someday."

Xiao Jinxi and Mo Yi looked at Mrs. Xiao in surprise when they heard the words!
"Grandma, what do you mean?" Xiao Jinxi asked suspiciously.

Mrs. Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Xi'er, do you remember that grandmother often brought you into the palace?"

Xiao Jinxi heard the words, thought about it for a moment and then said: "Yeah, now that I think about it, my grandmother did bring Xi'er into the palace frequently during that time."

Zhu asked again suspiciously: "Grandma, why?"

Mo Yi at the side also looked at Mrs. Xiao suspiciously.

Mrs. Xiao said slowly: "The deep royal palace, a place of right and wrong, if it is not special, grandma would not want to enter the palace often. Because at that time, grandma was entrusted by others."

Entrusted by others?Mo Yi and Xiao Jinxi looked at Mrs. Xiao in surprise again.

Mrs. Xiao turned her head to look at Mo Yi, and said slowly: "Back then, I was entrusted by General Xia Yang."

Mo Yi was shocked when he heard the words: "Uncle Xia!"

Mrs. Xiao looked at it and smiled knowingly: "It seems that you know about the matter between Xia Yang and your mother and concubine."

Mo Yi bowed and replied: "Yes, Mo Yi knows."

Xiao Jinxi who was on the side suddenly remembered: "Grandmother, you mean Xia Yang, the Xia family army who guards the western border for Tianqi at the junction of Tianqi and Western Zhou!"

Mrs. Xiao nodded and replied: "That's right, it's Xia Yang of the Xia family army. Although the Xia family is not as rich as the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion's century-old heritage, the Xia family has contributed a lot to guarding the western region for Tianqi in the past few decades."

Xiao Jinxi also nodded when she heard the words.

Mrs. Xiao turned her head to look at Mo Yi again, and said slowly: "Xia Yang was also a high-spirited young man back then, the eldest son of the Xia family's high hopes. You can send a marriage letter from Emperor Qianxing to the Western Zhou Dynasty, and want to marry the Mo family." Miss Mo Xueshi, when he watched the wedding reception team pick up your mother and concubine from the border of Tianqi in the Western Zhou Dynasty, his heart also went with your mother and concubine. He has the deepest affection for your mother and concubine, so far It's all alone."

Mo Yi nodded when he heard the words: "Madam, Mo Yi understands."

I only heard Mrs. Xiao continue to say: "When Xia Yang heard the news of your mother and concubine's death in the western region, he sneaked back to the imperial capital, but he had no choice but to enter the imperial palace back then. In the end, even the little There is a mausoleum that he cannot enter."

"Back then he could only stand there looking at the royal tomb from afar. When he came to the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion to look for me, he was in his prime, and he had beautiful hair in his blue hair."

The two people in the hall quietly listened to Mrs. Xiao talking about the past, as if they had seen that, the grief-stricken Xia Yang couldn't help feeling sad...

Mrs. Xiao continued to speak slowly: "He came to the Marquis of Wu'an to ask for his old age, and help him take care of that child who is still in the deep palace, because he knows that that child is Mo Xue's deepest concern in this world."

Xiao Jinxi on the side, at this moment, a drop of tears flowed down instantly, and the hands under the sleeves were clenched instantly...
Mo Yi on the side turned his head to look at Xiao Jinxi in an instant, frowned, got up and walked over, sat next to Xiao Jinxi, stretched out his hand to hold Xiao Jinxi's hand one by one, and said softly: "Xi'er, Yi is here."

And at this moment, Xiao Jinxi never rejected the hand that was being held. At this moment, it seemed that she had grasped a reliable harbor...

On the other side, Mrs. Xiao looked at the crying granddaughter, and was shocked for a moment: "Xi'er, you!"

Xiao Jinxi smiled slightly: "Grandmother, Xi'er is fine, but I am deeply grateful for General Xia Yang's affection."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao was puzzled, but when she saw Mo Yi holding her granddaughter's hand, she finally smiled with relief, and continued: "Xia Yang told grandma that the Mo family is already thinking of a way to find a time to take that child back."

"Although grandma is a female family member, she can enter and leave the harem, but she can't go overboard to take care of the child left by Concubine Li. Otherwise, Prince Yu would have let Prince Yu go. Back then, Prince Yu had taken the opportunity to take the child out of the palace. , were all rejected by Emperor Zongyuan."

"In this case, the grandmother is thinking, how to take care of that child?"

"Xi'er has a free and easy personality since she was a child, and she is easy to fight against injustices. So grandma thought that Emperor Zongyuan would never care about children's playfulness."

"In addition, Empress Ren'an at that time had been depressed since she lost her son. Emperor Zong Yuan also felt guilty towards Empress Ren'an, so my grandmother often took Xi'er into the palace on the pretext of visiting Empress Ren'an."

"At that time, my grandmother always used the beautiful scenery of the palace as an excuse to detour Shoukang Palace and go to Yikun Palace to find Empress Ren'an."

"And that time, I finally saw that child from a distance, surrounded by a group of young eunuchs."

Mrs. Xiao looked at her granddaughter and asked, "Xi'er, do you remember what grandma told you at that time?"

Xiao Jinxi heard the words, thinking back... her eyes lit up instantly: "Grandmother told Xi'er: You go and help that child, okay?"

Mrs. Xiao smiled when she heard the words: "That's right. And after that time, every time you enter the palace, you don't need grandma to tell you, Xi'er, you will go to Shoukang Palace to find that child by yourself. And every time you return home, you will tell grandma that you What did you see and do in Shoukang Palace? Once back, Xi’er told her grandmother that the boy’s name was Yi, and you gave him the bead string of the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Wu’an, so that those people would not dare to bully him in the future gone."

Xiao Jinxi smiled instantly when she heard the words: "Yeah, Xi'er was ignorant back then and always liked to complain about injustices. Every time she returned home, she would tell grandma a lot, and grandma always praised Xi'er after hearing it."

"After a while, grandma, you didn't bring Xi'er into the palace anymore. Thinking about it now, Mo Yi should have been taken out of the palace and went to the Mo family."

Mrs. Xiao nodded and replied, "That's right, that's right."
