Chapter 114 Xie Nanxing will never return to Luoan
"Mo Ping, go to Xie's house." His brows, stained with frost and blood, looked even gloomier, and his words were filled with hatred: "Clean up the house before Xie Nanxing comes back."
"Young Master." As soon as Mo Ping called out this name, he received a warning look from Shen Jinmo.
He knelt on the ground subconsciously, waiting for Shen Jinmo's instructions.
"Remember, there is no more Prince Mo from Princess Pingnan's mansion in the world. There is only Shen Jinmo from Luoan City."
Riding a horse straight to the palace, the palace gate inlaid with pure gold blocked Shen Jinmo's way to seek help.
After getting off his horse, Shen Jinmo knelt on the snow and said, "Your Highness, I, Shen Jinmo, beg to see you."
The guards guarding the palace gate naturally knew Shen Jinmo, the emperor's favorite. After reporting through various levels, the news that Shen Jinmo wanted to see the emperor reached Eunuch Lin's ears an hour later.
Looking at the extinguished palace lantern in the bedroom and thinking that Shen Jinmo was always a cautious person, Eunuch Lin had no choice but to walk towards the palace gate with several eunuchs.
Shen Jinmo, who was kneeling at the palace gate, looked more miserable than Eunuch Lin had ever seen. His dark forehead was still spreading with traces of blood. His ink-colored clothes showed no bloodstains, but the whip in his hand was covered with frozen red.
Eunuch Lin half-knelt beside Shen Jinmo, bowing and leaning forward: "Sir Shen, the emperor has gone to bed. Can you go back to the mansion and clean up first, and then talk about it when the emperor returns from the morning court tomorrow?"
"Xie Nanxing was expelled from the city by the Princess. I beg the Emperor to help me find Xie Nanxing."
He kowtowed three times, and the blood on his forehead flowed down Shen Jinmo's cheek again: "I beg Eunuch Lin to be lenient."
The word "please" spoken to Eunuch Lin has crushed Shen Jin's identity as a proud son of Mo Luoan into dust.
After tonight, the entire Divine City will know how Shen Jinmo begged for mercy from a eunuch.
But the reality is laid bare before Shen Jinmo. Shen Jinmo, who has no power or influence in Luoan City and has lost the protection of his family, can only rely on Xia Hong if he wants to find Xie Nanxing.
Shen Jinmo's kneeling before Eunuch Lin did not make Eunuch Lin feel like he was looking down upon him.
He had also seen Shen Jinmo's unbridled and kind appearance when he was young. All the past events came to his mind, and Eunuch Lin, a man who could not have any other emotions, felt pity for him.
Eunuch Lin stood up with the help of the young eunuch. He did not make any promises, but walked towards the bedroom several times faster than when he came here.
Standing outside the bedroom, Eunuch Lin's clothes were blown fluttering by the cold wind, dust was caught in the elbows, and he clasped his hands together as he paced anxiously in front of the hall.
No matter how much Xia Hong wanted to keep Shen Jinmo for his own use, what happened to Shen Jinmo today could only be considered a family matter. No matter how favored Eunuch Lin was, he was just a servant.
He had no right to wake up Xia Hong for Shen Jinmo's family affairs. All he could do was to get the news to Xia Hong as soon as possible.
"Ding ding ding..."
There was a slight sound in the hall, and Eunuch Lin knew it was time for Xia Hong to get up.
Eunuch Lin personally went in and waited for Xia Hong to get up. While burning incense, he spoke softly.
"Your Majesty, I heard from my subordinates that Prince Mo is now kneeling at the palace gate. I was afraid something bad had happened, so I went to take a look myself. I felt pity for him when I saw his appearance."
Taking the handkerchief handed over by Eunuch Lin, Xia Hong asked in a hoarse voice: "What is he doing kneeling at the palace gate at this time?"
"It is said that Master Xie was driven out of Luo'an by Princess Pingnan, and now he is nowhere to be found."
Having said that, Eunuch Lin did not dare to say another word.
He should not have any unnecessary affection for the civil and military nobles in the court.
If there are too many, his position will become unstable.
Xia Hong was supported by Eunuch Lin into the bedroom. He sat in front of the couch and drank a cup of warm tea. He gradually regained consciousness.
Eunuch Lin didn't know the reason for this situation, but Xia Hong knew it very well.
Xia Hong was personally instigator of Xia Xin's madness. After the morning court today, Xia Hong took a walk alone with Xia Xin to talk about the marriage of Shen Jinmo and Xie Nanxing.
"Send him in."
"twitter."
He sent a young eunuch to the palace gate to call people. The palace lanterns in the bedroom were lit one by one, and Eunuch Lin knelt on the ground to change clothes for Xia Hong.
Walking in the wind and snow, he left the group of young eunuchs behind him far behind. As soon as he entered the bedroom, Shen Jinmo prostrated himself on the ground, without a trace of elegance and dignity.
"Your Highness, I, Shen Jinmo, beg Your Majesty to help me find Xie Nanxing."
The torn voice was filled with panic and grief, and Xia Hong's brain, which had just woken up, started buzzing: "Get up and answer the question."
Shen Jinmo stood up from the ground, raised his head and looked at Xia Hong with his red and swollen eyes, and knelt down again when their eyes met: "I beg the emperor to have pity on me because I have no father or mother and no one loves me, and find Xie Nanxing for me."
Xia Hong was also frightened by Shen Jinmo's bloodstained face and the sadness in his eyes.
Although he anticipated that Shen Jinmo would be injured, he never thought that this man would be in such a miserable state for the sake of Xie Nanxing.
But, even though Shen Jinmo loved Xie Nanxing so much, he could not surpass him as the emperor.
"What happened to Xie Nanxing that made you so confused?"
Kneeling on the ground and explaining the whole thing, Shen Jinmo was surrounded by helplessness: "I have been chasing out of Luoan City for dozens of miles alone, but the world is so big that even if I have this level of cultivation, I cannot thank Nanxing in this vast sea of people."
"Xie Nanxing has always been in poor health and has an ugly appearance. The man with him is Yang Huai, a weak man who can't even tie a chicken." She looked up at Xia Hong and tears welled up in her eyes.
"I am afraid he will never come back."
Without making a statement, Xia Hong personally bent down and helped Shen Jinmo up: "Marrying a man is rare since ancient times. It is normal for Pingnan to find it difficult to accept it for a while. Don't resent her for this."
Shen Jinmo shook his head repeatedly. He didn't want to say a word about Xia Xin. "Your Majesty, she wants Xie Nanxing's life. Without your protection, even if I bring Xie Nanxing back, his life will be difficult."
Holding Xia Hong's hand that was about to let go, Shen Jinmo knelt down again and hurriedly made a promise that he was not sure whether it would be useful or not.
"From today on, there will be no more Prince Mo in this world. I beg the emperor to have mercy on me and help me find Xie Nanxing."
"I will serve my country until I die for the emperor."
……
Xie Nanxing was expelled, Shen Jinmo knelt at the palace gate, and the Xie family held a housewarming party. These three consecutive events caused an uproar in Luoan City at the end of the year.
Just when everyone thought that Shen Jinmo would become a defeated person who could be stepped on by everyone in Luoan in the future, Xia Hong waved his imperial pen and directly made Shen Jinmo a general of the second rank in the Imperial Guard.
His official position was only below Shen Jun.
Even though the position in the Imperial Guard Department could not be taken seriously, Xia Hong's feelings for Shen Jinmo were not false at all.
As soon as Xia Ling entered the East Palace after the morning court session, Li Yuan, Xun Lan and other eunuchs from the Prince's Mansion were already waiting in the meeting place. They knelt down and paid their respects to Xia Ling.
"No thanks." Xia Ling sat at the desk, with a hint of joy in his eyes: "Xie Nanxing has been missing for a long time, and there is still no trace of him until today. What do you think?"
"Xie Nanxing is nothing to be afraid of. The key is Lord Shen, who betrayed the Princess's Mansion for Xie Nanxing. Since we can't get Lord Shen, we can't let the Ninth Prince get him."
Li Yuan walked past Xun Lan and approached Xia Ling, telling him his plan word by word: "This Xie Nanxing will never be able to return to Luoan."
