Fu'an Hall of Marquis of Wu'an.

"Grandmother, you should eat more." Xiao Jinxi said while holding a piece of fish belly for her grandmother.

"Okay, I'll eat. Come, Xi'er, this crispy pork ribs is your favorite, you should eat more. You've lost weight these days." Mrs. Xiao said.

"Understood, grandma. Grandma, what is brother busy with, and you don't come to eat with us." Xiao Jinxi said again.

Mrs. Xiao replied: "Your father has returned to the northern border. Now your brother has to deal with many matters in the Hou Mansion. He will be busy these days. We will have dinner with him in a few days."

"Well, grandma, marry my brother a sister-in-law, so that someone will take care of him." Xiao Jinxi nodded and replied.

"Haha...it's time to give it to your brother. I've got to look for it. You child is already worried about your brother's life." Mrs. Xiao smiled instantly.

Xiao Jinxi continued to laugh and said, "My brother is so stupid. I'm not afraid of him. I don't know how to find a sister-in-law! You are an old man, and you haven't been able to have a great-grandson for a long time!" Seeing grandma laughing heartily, granddaughter is content.

Mrs. Xiao laughed when she heard the words: "Haha...well, well, grandma will help your eldest brother find one, and when the time comes, there will be more children, and our Hou Mansion will be full of excitement!"

"Yeah, grandma is wise!" Xiao Jinxi praised.

But at this moment, someone who was busy in the dark guard did not know that he had been properly arranged by his grandmother and sister!
After the meal, at this moment, the grandparents and grandchildren are drinking tea in the teahouse.

"Grandmother, are there ten brothers and sisters of the late emperor?" Xiao Jinxi asked.

Mrs. Xiao heard the words and said: "Nowadays everyone knows that this is the case, but it is actually more than that."

"Oh, grandma, please talk to me carefully." Xiao Jinxi said upon hearing this.

"Well, there are actually 11 brothers and sisters of Emperor Zong Yuan." Mrs. Xiao said.

When Xiao Jinxi heard the words, she was shocked instantly, there really was such a person!
Old Mr. Xiao continued: "The eleventh is the eleventh younger brother of Emperor Zongyuan. You should be called the eleventh prince now. His name is... that's right, Murong Yi."

Xiao Jinxi, who was drinking tea with her head down, was startled, and looked up instantly, "Yi, I seem to have heard of this name before!"

"Xi'er, Xi'er, Xi'er." Mrs. Xiao called out looking at her dazed granddaughter.

Xiao Jinxi regained consciousness and said, "Grandma, I'm fine, you can continue."

"The Eleventh Prince is Emperor Qianxing's most beloved youngest son. When Emperor Qianxing passed away and Emperor Zongyuan ascended the throne, the Eleventh Prince was only six years old. In the fifth year of Zongyuan, the Eleventh Prince's biological mother, Concubine Li, died of illness."

"Grand Concubine Li's mother's family is from the Mo family in the Western Zhou Dynasty, the grandmother of the Eleventh Prince, a white-haired man sent a black-haired man, heartbroken, and unable to afford illness."

"The Mo clan of the Western Zhou Dynasty sent letters of invitation to Emperor Zongyuan one by one, hoping to take the eleventh prince to the bedside of the Western Zhou Dynasty to fulfill his filial piety. In addition, he would also offer 3000 taels of gold."

"At that time, Emperor Zongyuan had only been enthroned for five years, but the national treasury was already in short supply, and he needed the money urgently, so he agreed to Western Zhou's request."

"At this point, the Eleventh Prince left Tianqi and went to the Western Zhou Dynasty. Emperor Zongyuan also said that since the Eleventh Prince returned to the Western Zhou Dynasty, he should not be mentioned again."

"As time goes on, time has made everyone forget the existence of the Eleventh Prince. After all, the Eleventh Prince is now twenty-one years old. The only people who know this now are Prince Yu and Prince Gong. .”

"Grandmother, it's true that the eleventh prince never returned to Tianqi?" Xiao Jinxi asked.

Mrs. Xiao replied after hearing the words: "Probably not, Emperor Zong Yuan seems to have never mentioned it."

"Concubine Li back then was amazingly talented, and Emperor Qianxing loved her very much. If Emperor Qianxing hadn't suffered a sudden illness and lived another ten years, the Temple of Tianqi would not be what it is today. gone."

The Western Zhou Dynasty, the eleventh prince, Emperor Zongyuan, Murong Xuan, the little emperor uncle, how many things are hidden here?Xiao Jinxi was a little confused.

Also, Yi, why do you feel that this name is not the first time you hear it!Do I know Uncle Huang?The memory is a bit confused, and I always feel that there is something I want to grasp, but I can't grasp it!

On the way back to the Jinxiu Pavilion, Xiao Jinxi was restless. There were too many unknowns, which made her a little uncertain.

"Miss, be careful!" When crossing the threshold, Luo Er instantly supported Xiao Jinxi who was about to trip.What's wrong with Miss, Luo Er worriedly looked at her Miss.

Xiao Jinxi returned to his senses and said, "Luoer, it's okay."

"Miss." Everyone in An Xue bowed and saluted when they saw Xiao Jinxi.

"Sister An Xue, you are back!" Luo Er said happily after seeing it.

"They're all back, let's go into the room and talk about it." Xiao Jinxi nodded and replied.

"Hey, miss." Everyone replied.

"...Miss, this is what we encountered in Yunshangfang. Xia Han checked all the items that Boss Yun sent, and there was nothing wrong with it."

"This is what Yunshang handed over to her master. Xia Han also checked the outside of the wooden box, and there is nothing wrong with it. Miss, do you need Xia Han to check the inside?" An Xue handed the small wooden box to Xiao Jinxi, Said.

"It's okay, give it to me." Xiao Jinxi took the wooden box and looked at it, full of doubts, old friend?

"Miss, Yunshang still wants me to pass a message to her." An Xue continued.

"Oh, what are you talking about?" Xiao Jinxi asked.

"Yunshang said that everyone in Yunshangfang is at the behest of the eldest lady and is on call at any time." An Xue bowed and replied.

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxi raised her head instantly.

"What!" Luo Er was shocked when she heard the words: "Miss, who is the master of Yunshangfang?"

"I don't know either, you guys go down first, I'm going to take care of it. Put the store's account book first, and I'll look at it tomorrow." Xiao Jinxi replied.

"Yes, miss." Hearing this, everyone bowed and retreated.

I saw Xiao Jinxi looking at the wooden box all the time, his eyes full of doubts, who are you?
After a while, Fang opened the wooden box.Inside the wooden box lay a small brocade, Xiao Jinxi took out the brocade full of doubts, opened it, and was stunned for a moment!

"My name is Yi, thank you!" A clean and clear youthful voice entered my mind instantly, and the chaotic memories found that clear point in an instant.

I saw a string of jadeite beads painted on the brocade. The string of jadeite beads is a rare true purple, full and round, and in the middle is a lovely sika deer carved from the same type of jadeite. There is a beautiful Chinese character "Xi" engraved on the body of the deer.

"So it was you!" Xiao Jinxi smiled instantly.

This emerald bead string was custom-made by my mother for myself. I have worn it in my hands since I was a child. I love it very much. I was still very young at that time and didn't understand my mother's intentions. I only thought that it was the symbol of the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Wu'an.

At that time, when I went to the palace with my grandmother to play, I ran into a little boy who was being bullied by a group of eunuchs, and I grew up in a family of generals, so I liked to fight against injustice at a young age.

And under the pampering of his family, he is even more fearless.

The little boy looks clean and handsome, and I like him very much. After helping him a few times, I gave him this emerald bead string and told him that this is the symbol of Marquis Wu'an Mansion. If anyone dares to bully you again, you can take it out. scare him!

Half a year later, my mother passed away. At that time, I locked myself in the room and cried every day. Fortunately, I was accompanied by Luo Er, so I walked out slowly, without the pain of my mother's company.

And the pain of my mother's departure also made me forget many things. Although I followed my grandmother to enter the palace again, I never met you again, and I gradually forgot from my memory...
"It turned out to be you! Eleventh Emperor Uncle, Little Emperor Uncle, in the last life, you actually participated in the war between Tianqi and Dayue for me, and I didn't even know it!" Xiao Jinxi sighed inwardly.

"How did you end up in your previous life?"

"I just hope that you are well in this life!" Xiao Jinxi prayed silently in her heart.
