The empress dotingly looked at her daughter and nodded. "Go."
After Princess Changle disappeared, Princess Ronghua looked critically at Ye Li. With a light snort, she said, "Princess Ding, aren't you proficient in both civil and martial arts? When did your body become so weak that you can't even drink a cup of tea? " Ye Li smiled at Princess Ronghua and replied, "Princess must be joking. However, if there is something wrong with the body, it is natural to have a physician examine it as soon as possible. Concealing one's illness for fear of treatment is not a good thing. What do you think, Princess? " Princess Ronghua proudly raised her eyebrows. Picking up the teacup, she took a sip and said, "This princess has never heard of someone who cannot drink tea because they are unwell."
"Enough, Ronghua." Seeing Princess Ronghua being so overbearing, Zhaoyang Princess frowned in displeasure. "You are an unmarried girl. Can't you speak properly? What is it like to be so rampant? "
"I am about to be married off to the Northern Tribes. Who cares if I speak properly?!" Princess Ronghua angrily said. Finished speaking, she glared at Ye Li. It was obvious that she had been holding back these words for a long time. Ye Li smiled bitterly in her heart. The marriage alliance was decided by the Emperor. What did it have to do with her? Turning around and handing the teacup to Qingyu, Ye Li decided not to speak. To the side, Princess Zhaoren could not help but ask, "Princess Ding, what are your plans for the marriage alliance candidates?"
Ye Li inwardly shook her head. Princess Zhaoren and Princess Ronghua both had the same temperament. Probably because they were born into the imperial family, they were used to being arrogant. Even at this time, their words carried a commanding tone. "The Emperor's desired candidates are all listed. Yesterday, the Prince brought them back to the residence. I have not had the time to look at them. I am unable to answer Princess's question. "
"The Emperor's desired candidate is Hua Tianxiang. Who doesn't know?" Princess Ronghua blurted out. "You are clearly trying to exclude her. Do you think that this princess does not know?"
Ye Li raised her eyebrows and smiled. She looked up at Princess Ronghua and asked doubtfully, "The Emperor likes Miss Hua? Since that's the case, why didn't His Majesty directly order Young Miss Hua to go to the marriage alliance instead of letting this consort choose a suitable candidate? Since that's the case … since we're all in the palace today, why don't we ask Princess Ronghua to ask the emperor if he really likes Miss Hua? That way, this consort won't be able to pick someone who doesn't meet the Emperor's expectations. Princess Ronghua, what do you think? "
"I …" Princess Ronghua was so angry that her face turned white. Although she didn't know much about politics, it didn't mean that she didn't know anything. Why didn't the Emperor directly issue a decree for Hua Tian Xiang to marry? As a close relative of the Imperial Family, even if she didn't think of it herself, others would have told her. If she really went to the Emperor to ask, she was afraid that she would be the only candidate for the marriage alliance. This Ye Li actually dared to scheme against her! Just like that woman Ye Ying, no one with the surname Ye was a good person!
"Princess Ding." Zhaoyang Princess looked at the resentful Princess Ronghua and sighed helplessly. She didn't have any children, and Princess Zhaoren also only had this one daughter, so it was inevitable that she would spoil Ronghua too much. She didn't want to spoil her to have such a domineering and brainless personality. Princess Ding lost her mother when she was young. In terms of age, she was younger than Ronghua by half a year, but Ronghua couldn't compare to her. "Ronghua is impatient and doesn't know how to talk. I hope Princess Ding won't blame me."
Ye Li also knew that Princess Zhaoyang Princess had always doted on this niece, so she didn't mind. She smiled and said, "Princess, you're exaggerating. In fact, although the Emperor gave me the marriage alliance, Princess knows that I'm young and have never dealt with these things. There are many things that I don't understand. So I don't dare to rush to a conclusion. So I can't answer Princess Zhaoren's question right now. Please forgive me. "
Zhaoyang Princess smiled and said, "Princess Zhaoren asked because she was worried about Ronghua. Wang Fei doesn't have to take it to heart. "
"Niangniang, Prince Ding has come." The palace maid outside the pavilion reported.
The Empress turned to look at Ye Li and said with a smile, "Everyone says that Prince Ding and Wang Fei are very loving. I didn't believe it at first, but now I do. It's only been a short while, and Prince Ding can't wait? Invite Prince Ding over. "
A short while later, Mo Xiuyao slowly walked over. He stood outside the pavilion and scanned the people in the pavilion. He smiled faintly and said, "Empress, sorry to disturb."
The Empress smiled and said, "Prince Ding has come to take Wang Fei back?"
Mo Xiuyao nodded slightly. He looked at Ye Li with a smile in his eyes and said, "Li and I still have some matters to attend to and have to return to the fu first. So we came to disturb Empress's mood. Please forgive us." The Empress waved her hand and smiled, "It's fine. Prince Ding and Wang Fei have not met for a long time. No wonder they are so worried. Today, I also wanted to see if Princess Ding is well after not seeing her for a long time. Now that we have seen her, Prince Ding, please take Wang Fei away. "Mo Xiuyao gave his thanks in a light voice. He reached out to hold Ye Li's hand and nodded at Zhaoyang Princess before bidding farewell.
The two walked hand in hand in the Imperial Garden. The noblewomen admiring the flowers in the garden sensibly retreated. Mo Xiuyao's body had recovered, but the mask on half of his face still made many people afraid. There had once been a rumor that one of Prince Ding's fiancees had been scared to death by his disfigured face. Also, the present situation at court was delicate. Even if there were people who admired Prince Ding's presence, they would not come up to talk in the Imperial Garden.
Ye Li was naturally in a good mood to be able to leave the Imperial Palace early. A faint fragrance wafted through the Imperial Garden. Ye Li leisurely walked beside Mo Xiuyao, enjoying this tranquil time. She did not forget to show concern for Mo Xiuyao's mood. "What is it? What did the Emperor say? You don't seem to be in a good mood. "Mo Xiuyao tilted his head to look at her and asked," What was in the tea just now? "
Ye Li looked in shock at him. How did he know what had happened in the pavilion so quickly?
"There should be something like musk and safflower. Qing Yu has gone to investigate. There should be a result when we return. " Seeing that his expression was not good, Ye Li still told him everything she knew. She was also curious about what had been put in her tea. Those things did have some effect on the body, but the effect on her was limited. She really did not understand why those people would take the risk to put those things in her tea. Even a laxative would be more effective than those other medicines. Mo Xiuyao stopped walking. He tilted his head to look at Ye Li and asked, "Ye Li, do you know what the effects of those medicines are?"
"Clearing the meridians and promoting blood flow … … stopping pain … …"
"Li, when we return to the fu, you will study medicine with Mister Chen for a month." After a moment of silence, Mo Xiuyao finally opened his mouth to speak.
Medicine? Ye Li's lips twitched. Alright, it wasn't that she didn't know that these two medicines had another effect, but … … at the same time, it was said that it was not reliable. Also … … it had no effect on them at all, alright? Mo Xiuyao was angry, but he did not let go of Ye Li's hand. He pulled her out of the Imperial Garden. Seeing that Mo Xiuyao did not speak to her and only continued to walk forward, Ye Li felt that something was strange. She had never seen Mo Xiuyao angry before. It should be said that she had never seen Mo Xiuyao angry with her before. She tugged at Mo Xiuyao's hand that was holding hers. "Xiuyao … …" Mo Xiuyao tilted his head to look at her. He still did not speak. Ye Li helplessly sighed. Alright, it was her fault. She should not have acted so careless.
