Marquis Ning Yuan opened the note and took a look at it, then threw the note aside.
Mrs. Xu on the side quickly picked up the note. After seeing the word "soldier talisman" on the note, she couldn't hide her sadness and started crying. The soldier talisman was an absolutely unshakable thing for the Xu family.
The military talisman controlled an army of millions. Once it fell into the hands of others, it would be equivalent to announcing the fall of the dynasty. Therefore, no matter what, neither the Xu family nor the royal family could let the military talisman fall into the hands of others.
Mrs. Xu was heartbroken and cried so much that she could no longer breathe. On the side, Marquis Ningyuan's face gradually turned gray. Finally, Xu Yanquan said: "Meng and Tongbing and I went in two directions. I went to the city, and he went to the mountains. , maybe, he can get the person back!"
Marquis Ningyuan looked at Mrs. Xu who was crying beside her, and was silent for a long time, and then said: "I'm going to the palace, Yanquan, take good care of your mother!"
Xu Yanquan nodded silently.
Marquis Ning Yuan took a deep breath and then walked away.
Mrs. Xu looked at Ning Yuanhou's leaving figure and began to fall into deep self-blame: "It's all my fault. All this is my fault. If I had taken good care of Mo Mo, how could she have gone out? It's all my fault!"
Xu Yanquan looked at Mrs. Xu, whose eyes were red from crying, and was speechless for a long time. Until the end, she stood silently aside without saying a word.
Hua Ying and Qu Lian looked at each other and just comforted Mrs. Xu in a low voice.
But it was such a move that made Xu Yanquan suspicious. Hua Ying and Qu Lian had followed Xu Qingmo since they were young, and they had deep feelings for each other. If anything happened, even if it was just a small wound, they would both be anxious. It's like the sky is falling.
But this time, Xu Qingmo disappeared directly, and they were able to be so calm.
After Ning Yuanhou entered the palace, he went straight to the imperial study room without saying a word or reporting anything. He knelt directly at the door of the imperial study room.
The emperor opened the door and opened the door to Ning Yuanhou, who was kneeling at the door of the royal study. His eyes were deep. Ningyuan Hou was no longer confused and his bones were strong. For so many years, even if he was pierced by a steel knife in the chest, he had not blinked. But this Once, I got red-eyed.
The emperor walked up to Marquis Ningyuan: "Didn't find it?"
Marquis Ning Yuan shook his head: "It's cold outside, Your Majesty, you'd better go inside!"
"Are you just kneeling like this?" The emperor looked at Ning Yuanhou, feeling a little sad, "Maybe if you ask, I will agree?"
"My daughter is precious, aren't the daughters of the people of the world precious?" Marquis Ningyuan lowered his eyes, "Mo Mo is a person who understands right and wrong. She knows how I will choose. I kneel here because I just want to Buy her more time!"
The emperor looked at Ning Yuanhou, gritted his teeth, and said after a long time: "What are they asking for, a border defense map? Or a military talisman?"
Marquis Ningyuan remained silent.
At this time, Xie Suxian rushed over in a hurry. He was drunk last night and only found out today that something happened to the Xu family. When he knew that Xu Qingmo had been kidnapped, he hurriedly entered the palace without even losing his hair. He had time to freshen up: "Father!"
As soon as the emperor turned around, he saw the embarrassed prince and couldn't help but frown: "Look at how decent you are!"
Xie Suxian then lowered his head and glanced at his own clothes, and quickly knelt down in front of the emperor: "Father, please forgive me, but I am just too anxious. Xu Qing... is there any news about Miss Xu?"
The emperor said nothing, and Marquis Ning Yuan on the side also pursed his lips and said nothing. Xie Suxian felt relieved and turned around to leave, but was stopped by the emperor: "Where are you going?"
"My son, please take someone to find Miss Xu right now!" Xie Suxian said quickly.
"Don't cause trouble!" The emperor looked at Xie Suxian and was a little annoyed, "You don't even know what happened, so you just went out to look for it in such a daze, what could you find, and then spread the news about Xu Qingmo's disappearance? If you go out, it will ruin her reputation!"
Xie Suxian looked at the furious emperor in front of him and panicked: "Then are we just going to watch Xu Qingmo die?"
The emperor was silent. He looked at Marquis Ningyuan aside. After a long time, the emperor said: "This is a matter between me and Marquis Ningyuan. What you have to do now is to return to your prince's residence. Don't go out and don't talk to anyone." This matter! Just pretend that you don’t know anything!”
"Father!"
"go back!"
Faced with the emperor's decision, Xie Suxian was silent for a long time, and finally could only leave lonely.
This is not the first time this kind of thing has happened. You need to know why Madam Xu died at a young age. Wasn’t it because of the military talisman!
Marquis Ningyuan was so young at that time, but when faced with threats from others, he still resolutely chose the Celestial Empire. But now, he was faced with such a choice again. From beginning to end, Marquis Ningyuan never told the emperor. However, what the other party wanted was to kneel in front of the imperial study room.
This time, the emperor couldn't bear it. He was getting older and was no longer the decisive emperor he used to be. Especially the death of Marquis Yongchang made him feel compassionate. He looked at Marquis Ningyuan, hesitating again and again, and finally He opened his mouth and said: "Xu Xiaowen, I will give you a chance. As long as you open your mouth, I will pretend that I don't know about this matter. Whether it is military symbols or border defense maps, everything is up to you!"
Ning Yuanhou raised his head and looked at the emperor. The two people looked at each other. In the end, Ningyuan Hou smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty is confused!"
"Xu Xiaowen..."
"Since they dare to touch my Xu family, they are naturally planning to destroy our family and the country!" Marquis Ningyuan looked at the emperor in front of him, "This time, whether Mo Mo lives or dies, I The Xu family's cavalry will definitely break through their country's gates and tell them that the majesty of the Celestial Empire must not be offended!"
The emperor looked at Marquis Ning Yuan for a long time, finally took a deep breath and sneered: "That's right!"
Marquis Ningyuan had been kneeling in front of the imperial study. People in the capital had gone viral. They didn't know what happened. They only knew that Marquis Ningyuan had a dispute with the emperor, and finally Marquis Ningyuan knelt in front of the imperial study.
As for the prince, after returning to the prince's residence, he was so angry that he smashed everything in the house, and Zhu Han was so frightened that he did not dare to say a word.
"Let me find out who it is, who is so bold and dares to touch my people!" Xie Suxian threw the thing in his hand in front of the guard.
The guards took the order and left, leaving only Zhu Han standing aside.
Zhu Han suppressed the fear in his heart and walked carefully to the prince: "Your Highness, what happened?"
Xie Suxian turned his eyes and said, "If you shouldn't ask, don't ask any more!"
