Chapter 165 I Can't Avoid This Pain
At night, in the Imperial Study Room of the Apocalypse Palace, in the secret room of the Dark Palace.

At this moment, Emperor Ming Xi was sitting in the secret room, and a man in a black suit was standing on one side. There was only one candle lit in the secret room, and the room was dimly lit...
On the seat, Emperor Ming Xi said in a low voice, full of dissatisfaction: "You finally appeared, disappeared for so long, where did you go?"

The man in the black costume in the hall bowed and replied: "Sorry! I have something to do, so I left for a while."

Emperor Ming Xi frowned instantly when he heard the words, and said, "Is there something wrong? What is it?"

The man in the black costume hesitated for a moment, and said again: "It was rumored that someone was looking into the matter of Dayue Emperor Ji, and I was worried, so I went to look into it."

Emperor Ming Xi froze his eyes instantly when he heard the words, and asked again: "Have you found anything?"

The man in black clothes shook his head and replied, "No, I didn't find anything, so I came back."

After a while, Emperor Ming Xi asked again: "Did Black Eagle contact you?"

The man in the black outfit had doubts in his eyes, and he replied, "He didn't contact me. What, did Black Eagle go out?"

Emperor Ming Xi had doubts in his eyes, and continued: "Last time you sent news that someone was investigating the affairs of Emperor Ji of Dayue, so I asked Black Eagle to go to Dayue to investigate, but he hasn't come back until now."

The man in the black suit thought for a moment, and said again: "Maybe it was delayed by something, wait a little longer, and if I don't come back, I'll go and have a look."

However, the sound fell, cough... The man in the black suit unconsciously coughed.

Emperor Ming Xi, who was seated, frowned instantly, and asked, "How did you get hurt?"

After a while, the well-dressed man replied: "It's just that I met some old enemies in the rivers and lakes, and it's all right now."

Emperor Mingxi stared at the man in front of him suspiciously. After a moment, Fang looked away, took out a sealed letter from his body, and said, "Leave the matter of Black Eagle alone. Send the letter over there for me as soon as possible."

The well-dressed man paused after hearing the words, and went forward to take the letter. After a while, he said again: "Now that you have ascended the throne, there is no need to contact there any more."

Emperor Mingxi sneered at the corner of his mouth for a moment, and said: "Access to the throne of God? The Marquis of Wu'an is still on top of my head! If the military power in the northern border is not taken back, how can I feel at ease? Now, Murong Yi has also returned to Tianqi. You are also engaged to Xiao Jinxi, so you can be sure that Concubine Li didn't mention this to Murong Yi?"

The man in the black costume hesitated for a moment, and said again: "It's been so many years, if it was mentioned, why did Murong Yi wait until now to return to Tianqi? Are you overthinking?"

Emperor Mingxi immediately stood up when he heard the words, and walked towards the man in the strong suit, with dark eyes in his eyes, he said, "Heh... are you pitying him? Do you feel guilty for what happened back then?"

The man in the black costume immediately shook his head and said, "No! It's just that Xiao Jinxi thought of your life-saving grace back then, and has always protected you in many ways, and has always stood by your side, but why has he suddenly become like this now? situation?"

When Emperor Mingxi heard the words, his voice turned cold instantly, and he shouted angrily: "Don't mention Xiao Jinxi to me again, huh... Xiao Jinxi, she has been in collusion with Murong Yi for a long time!"

The man in black clothes frowned, and said again: "But in this situation, and you have just ascended the throne not long ago, otherwise, let's wait, maybe Murong Yi just came to Xiao Jinxi because of the kindness of Shoukang Palace back then. Maybe when he takes Xiao Jinxi to the Western Zhou Dynasty, everything will be fine."

At this moment, Emperor Ming Xi's eyes were full of predation, he stared at the man in black, and shouted angrily again: "Heh... are you going to gamble your life for me? Betting that Murong Yi doesn't know what happened back then! Bet he returned to Tianqi just to marry Xiao Jinxi!"

The man in black clothes frowned, and said again: "I'm just afraid that your haste will backfire."

At this moment, Emperor Ming Xi's eyes were already full of murderous intent, and he shouted angrily again: "Xiao Jinxi! Heh... I think it is because of Murong Yi that she will divorce! These two people have already secretly crossed the border, and they divorced when they saw the opportunity. Now the two People even get engaged with great fanfare! Heh... Throughout the ages, which emperor has suffered such shame and humiliation!"

At this moment, the man in black and strong clothes had deep helplessness in his eyes. He looked at Emperor Ming Xi in front of him, but he didn't know what to say!
After a while, Emperor Ming Xi yelled angrily again: "If Murong Yi knew what happened back then, Xiao Jinxi would know too. If I don't get back the military power quickly, one day things will happen. Do you think I still have a way out? Do you want to watch Am I going to be slaughtered by him and have no way out? Don’t you know why all this has come to this day? Don’t forget how you promised your mother and concubine back then!”

The eyes of the man in the black costume dimmed for an instant, and he bowed back and said, "I see, I'll deliver the letter right away. Be careful in everything!"

"En." Emperor Ming Xi responded lightly.

The man in black and strong attire glanced at Emperor Ming Xi again before turning around and leaving.

Looking at the figure going away, after a while, Emperor Mingxi turned around and walked out of the secret room, back to the imperial study.

At this moment, Emperor Mingxi behind the dragon case stared coldly at the imperial decree for bestowing marriage, instantly picked up the imperial decree and threw it on the ground, his eyes were full of murderous intent... Murong Yi, Xiao Jinxi, Marquis of Wu'an, we Not one will be let go!

Jinxiu Pavilion of Marquis Mansion of Wu'an.

On the pear flower couch, Xiao Jinxi stared quietly at the chessboard in front of her, holding a jade piece with both fingers and rubbing it...
After a long time, Wei Mo appeared in Nuan Pavilion, bowed and said: "Master, Yunzhi and the others from the northern border have sent a message back."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinxi quickly took the letter paper, and said in a moment: "Falling Leaves Valley!"

Wei Mo continued to say: "That's right, it's Fallen Leaves Valley. Master, according to your instructions, just follow him from a distance to see where he went. After crossing the border, the hidden guard went to many places to investigate, and among them One of the best places is the Fallen Leaves Valley."

"This Fallen Leaves Valley is usually seldom visited. It just so happens that the Miaojiang man that Mr. Rong found before is also in the Fallen Leaves Valley. The hidden guard can walk in the clouds, Ji Haotian can also walk in the clouds, and the man from Miaojiang can also walk in the clouds." Ling Yunbu. Master, it seems that Emperor Mingxi, Ji Haotian, and that Miaojiang man have a close relationship!"

Xiao Jinxi nodded when she heard the words, and replied: "Yes, the relationship is not shallow! Let me think about it again, you go to work first."

"Yes, master." Wei Mo bowed and left upon hearing this.

For a moment, Xiao Jinxi turned his head and picked up the small wooden box next to the chessboard, opened the wooden box, took out the broken jade inside, rubbed it, with a gloomy expression and thoughtful eyes... The incident of the brother's attack on the northern border has been brought forward!So will the war between Apocalypse and Dai Viet advance?Time is running out, I can't waste it like this anymore, maybe, this pain can't be avoided in the end!
