Ye Li looked at Xu Hongyan seriously and said, "Second Uncle, Li 'er knows what to do. I will definitely not put myself in danger."
Seeing his niece's determined expression, Xu Hongyan sighed helplessly, "Li 'er, you are a girl. You don't need to take all the responsibility. Whether it is your big brother or Prince Ding, their matters are not your responsibility. " Ye Li smiled faintly and said, "I know. If Li 'er doesn't know anything and doesn't know anything, then naturally you can stay in a safe place and let people protect you. But since I can help a little, why should I let big brother take the risk alone? Don't think that I don't know. Second Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother, and Fifth Brother also want to go to Nan Jiang to help big brother. It's just that they can't leave. Now I can use the excuse of going missing to help big brother so grandfather and uncle don't have to worry. "
Xu Hongyan glared at her unhappily, "Worry? How can you be at ease? "
Ye Li blinked, "Second Uncle, you should admit that I am stronger than Third Brother. You are already at ease with Third Brother going to the military camp. Why can't you be at ease with Li 'er? "
"He is a man. It doesn't matter which one of them is injured. Can you compare? "Xu Hongyan said. But Ye Li saw a trace of hesitation. She hurriedly tried to persuade him, "I'm not going alone. My secret guards will follow me. Second Uncle … … "
Xu Hongyan was helpless and could only say, "You are already married. Go ask Prince Ding. If Prince Ding doesn't agree, then it is useless to say anything to me. "
"Thank you, Uncle." Ye Li was overjoyed. In her opinion, convincing her uncle was much more difficult than convincing Mo Xiuyao.
Xu Hongyan looked at her face full of joy and sighed helplessly. It was no good for a girl to be too weak, just like his little sister Li 'er's mother. It was even worse for a girl to be too strong and intelligent, just like this niece of his. He only hoped that Prince Ding could suppress her and let her stay in the capital or return to Yunzhou.
Deep in the forest outside the Jingling Temple, Mo Xiuyao was alone in his wheelchair, resting with his eyes closed. The faint slanting sunlight shone through the treetops and onto his body, making the still somewhat chilly early spring have a faint hint of warmth.
"Xiu Yao." Ye Li approached and saw the thin and tired face of the man leaning on the wheelchair. Her heart trembled, and she couldn't help but feel a little guilty and worried. Mo Xiuyao opened his eyes and looked up at her. He was startled at first, but then he smiled and said, "No wonder so many people couldn't find Mr. Li. If I didn't look carefully, I probably wouldn't be able to recognize Mr. Li." Ye Li walked up to him and looked at Mo Xiuyao's smiling eyes. She said in a low voice, "I'm sorry for making you worry."
"Li, are you still not going to go back?" Mo Xiuyao looked at Ye Li with a calm and gentle gaze as he asked softly.
Ye Li shook her head and looked at him. "I want to go to Nanjiang."
Mo Xiuyao frowned. "If Mr. Li is worried about Brother Xu, I'll let Feng San go to Nanjiang to help him." Ye Li shook her head. "Leng Haoyu is not in the capital. Only Feng Zhiyao and Chief Steward Mo are helping you. How can you send Feng Zhiyao out? Besides, it's not a good time for me to go back now, is it? "If she went back now, she definitely needed to find out who did it in the palace. Just as Mo Jingli said, even if it was for the sake of the Ding Manor's face, they couldn't let the person who kidnapped the Ding Manor's consort get away with it. And once the Ding Manor targeted Mo Jingli, then the one who would benefit from it would be Mo Jingqi. It was better now. The Ding Manor's consort went missing in the palace. No matter what, they would stand on the Ding Manor's side. Just let Mo Jingli and Mo Jingqi fight among themselves. Although Mo Jingli knew that she had escaped, he still had to swallow this loss. He couldn't admit that he kidnapped Princess Ding and then she escaped from his hands, right?
"If Mr. Li feels bored in the capital, you can go to Yunzhou. When the matter is over, I'll come to pick you up and bring you back to the capital, okay? "Mo Xiuyao pulled Ye Li in front of him and raised his head to ask.
Ye Li bit her red lips and looked at Mo Xiuyao with determination. She knew that this man wanted to protect her, but even if she felt warm and moved, she wasn't a weak woman who could stand behind a man and watch others go through life and death. Besides, it wasn't just for Mo Xiuyao. Her family and brothers were also involved in this dispute. In the foreseeable future, there might be an uncle who doted on her and an old grandfather.
"I'll bring the Shadow Guard. I won't put myself in danger." Ye Li softly rejected Mo Xiuyao's suggestion.
A trace of disappointment could be clearly seen in Mo Xiuyao's gentle eyes. Ye Li quickly averted her eyes. After being together for half a year, she had gradually gotten used to Mo Xiuyao's gentle and indifferent voice and aura. Mo Xiuyao rarely asked her for anything, but Ye Li suddenly realized that even if it was Mo Xiuyao's request, she rarely fulfilled it. Thinking about it, no matter how one looked at it, she didn't seem to be a good wife. "Li, I'm sorry. It's all because of me … "
"No!" Ye Li interrupted him. "I know that if I want to, I can always stay in a safe place. You can arrange everything for me. But … Xiuyao, I don't want that. I don't want to hide behind you. If I'm destined to be with someone for the rest of my life, I hope that I can stand by his side and not hide under his wings. Do … you understand? "
Mo Xiuyao's fingers almost imperceptibly trembled. After a while, he said in a low voice, "Then … be careful. Li Li. " After saying this, he took out a piece of warm jade tied with a red silk ribbon and placed it in Ye Li's hand. He smiled faintly and said, "Keep it well. Don't lose it." Ye Li played with the warm jade in her hand. It was a dragon Yazi carved from the highest quality mutton fat white jade. Even though it was carved from warm white jade, one could still feel the domineering aura of a dragon and the cold killing intent of a Yazi. Ye Li held it in her hand and looked at Mo Xiuyao. "This?"
Mo Xiuyao smiled faintly. "This is an ancestral jade pendant. I wanted to give it to Li Li a long time ago. Don't lose it. It's the same as the Cloud Grasping Sword. They're both family heirlooms. "
Ye Li was speechless. She silently put away the jade pendant.
Seeing Ye Li's figure disappear into the forest, the warm smile on Mo Xiuyao's face gradually disappeared. He looked down at his crippled legs. His indifferent eyes were filled with anger and unwillingness.
"Bang!" With a wave of his hand, a large tree nearby snapped. Mo Xiuyao coughed a few times. His face was tired as he leaned against his wheelchair. "You really are … trash …"
"With Prince's current body, it's best not to get angry so easily." Shen Yang walked out of the forest and frowned as he looked at the tree trunk on the ground. Mo Xiuyao walked in front of him. As expected, he saw that the white handkerchief in his hand was stained red. A Jin followed behind Shen Yang and looked worriedly at Mo Xiuyao.
"Wang Fei is a very special woman. Prince should feel happy that he has married such a Wang Fei." Looking in the direction that Ye Li had left, Shen Yang said thoughtfully.
Mo Xiuyao said coldly, "You say that I should feel happy that my Wang Fei is in danger?"
Shen Yang looked at the hand that was clenched on his knee and said in a rare tone of an elder, "Even though this may hurt Prince's pride, but I feel that Wang Fei does not need Prince's protection. Wang Fei's present appearance is much more real and moving than her noble appearance in the wang fu, isn't it? Or is it that Prince Ding is like the common people and prefers a woman who is like a dodder flower that depends on you? "
