"Prince Ding, you've gone too far!" Yelu Ye's face darkened as he stared at Mo Xiuyao.
Mo Xiuyao glanced at him and smiled faintly, "Where did Prince Yelu's words come from?"
"Huimin was willing to marry into Da Chu State for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries. Prince, even if you don't like my Northern Militant's noble daughter, you shouldn't humiliate her like this! I will report this matter to your country's Emperor and will definitely seek justice for Huimin. "Yelu Ye said with righteous indignation.
"Justice?" Mo Xiuyao raised his eyebrows and said with ridicule, "I still want to seek justice. In the throne room, I already personally rejected the marriage decree. I also repeatedly stated that the Ding King's Mansion only has one mistress. Prince Yelu and this Miss Helian have repeatedly come to disturb us, even slandering and driving a wedge between us in front of I's beloved wife. Could it be that Prince Yelu doesn't know how important the mistress of the Ding King's Mansion is? If Miss Li and I become hostile because of this, who can I find to reason with? If it was a woman from Da Chu State, she would naturally retreat after being implicitly rejected. However, not only have you two visited every day, you've also spread rumors everywhere to ruin Miss Li's reputation. I can't help but suspect that Miss Helian was forced to marry into the Northern Militant's Mansion because she couldn't get married. The Ding King's Mansion only has one mistress. If Miss Helian insists on staying, it wouldn't be a problem for her to be a rough cleaning maid. Miss Helian can't be a first class maid. The worst of the Prince Ding Mansion's first class maids are all educated and courteous pure girls. "
"Prince Ding, you …" Helian Huimin seemed to have recovered from the blow just now. Hearing Mo Xiuyao's words, she was so angry that her face flushed red. Even her pair of beautiful eyes were rolling with sparkling and translucent tears. However, she didn't retreat or cry because of this. Instead, she turned her face to Ye Li. "Since Princess Consort received Prince Ding's favor, don't tell me you don't want to say something? Or will Princess Consort only hide behind Prince Ding and enjoy the fruits of others' labor? "
Ye Li sighed in her heart. This girl really wasn't simple. If a normal girl was humiliated so brazenly by a man like this, even if she didn't immediately run away in tears, she would've sobbed. But this Miss Helian not only wasn't defeated, she actually still had the strength to retaliate. Blinking her eyes, Ye Li smiled innocently, "Miss Helian, isn't it natural for a man to protect a woman? With His Highness around, this consort naturally doesn't need to worry. This Fei and His Highness are in love with each other and do not want anyone else to come between us. Asking Miss Helian to help us. "
"It's common sense for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Your Da Chu State also requires women to be virtuous and virtuous. Princess Consort, aren't you afraid of being criticized by others for saying such words?" Yelu Ye asked.
Ye Li smiled. "Our Da Chu State requires women to understand etiquette, justice, integrity and shame. A woman who takes the initiative to ask for marriage is absolutely not acceptable. What's more … this consort doesn't like Prince Ding taking concubines. Whoever wants to criticize, just criticize. "
Helian Huimin clearly didn't expect that Ye Li wasn't the slightest bit different from other women in Da Chu State. Unexpectedly, she was so difficult to deal with on this issue. She gritted her teeth and said, "Isn't Princess Consort afraid that the Emperor will blame the Ding King fu?"
"Blame?" Ye Li's elegant brows slightly knitted. Just when others thought she was about to waver, she lightly bit her teeth and said, "In a moment, this consort will enter the palace to ask for forgiveness. Miss Helian … no, anyone who wants to marry into the Ding King fu is fine. This consort will slit her throat with a sword and give up the position of Princess Consort. At that time, Prince Ding can marry whoever he wants! "Finished speaking, she raised her head to look at Mo Xiuyao and asked," Prince, what do you say? " Mo Xiuyao's originally malicious expression instantly faded. He didn't care that there were still two outsiders in front of him. He pulled Ye Li into his embrace and said with a smile, "Beloved consort, you mustn't. If beloved consort is hurt in the slightest, I will feel the same way. At that time, I can only crush those bastards who hurt beloved consort to eliminate the hatred in my heart. "
Ye Li nodded her head in satisfaction. She turned her head to look at Helian Huimin and said, "Miss Helian, you've seen it. Even if this consort dies, Prince Ding will not marry you." Helian Huimin still wanted to say something but was stopped by Yelu Ye. Yelu Ye stood up and said, "Since it's like this, I'll have to disturb Prince and Princess Consort today. This one will take his leave first. "
"I won't see you out." Mo Xiuyao said indifferently.
After sending off the two eyesores, Ye Li turned her head to size up Mo Xiuyao. She said with a smile that wasn't a smile, "To have such a beauty's favour, Prince Ding's luck with women is really not shallow."
Mo Xiuyao looked at her helplessly, "To I, only Miss Li is a beauty. This is … trouble that came out of nowhere."
Ye Li frowned and said, "Why didn't the Northern Tribes mention this so called political marriage before?" Just look at how busy the Ministry of Rites has been these two months to prepare for the political marriage between the two countries. How could there be someone like Helian Huimin who directly delivered herself to their doorstep? Saying it was a political marriage was more like child's play. Mo Xiuyao said, "Yelu Ye only mentioned it after the Northern Tribes' political marriage envoy arrived in the capital. It shouldn't be the King of the Northern Tribes' idea, but rather Yelu Ye's own impromptu idea." Ye Li didn't understand. "Impromptu idea? If he wants to plant a spy in the Prince Ding Mansion, isn't it a bit too obvious? "Mo Xiuyao smiled and said," Plant a spy? Yelu Ye wouldn't do something that he knows is impossible. Even if he wanted to do it, he wouldn't do it so substandard. He just wants to make a big fuss and cause a bit of trouble for I, that's all. In any case, that Helian Huimin is only Helian Zhen's adopted daughter. Who knows what her background is? Whether she's crippled or dead, it won't be a loss to him. "
Ye Li lightly snorted and said, "Since it's like this, Prince, why don't you explain what the rumors in the capital are about?"
Mo Xiuyao smiled and said, "Are you talking about the rumors that Li is unvirtuous? I had people spread those rumors. "
"So Prince has been dissatisfied with me for a long time?" Ye Li glanced at him and said lightly.
Mo Xiuyao smiled and said, "How could that be? I love my beloved concubine so much that she's unvirtuous. "
Ye Li raised her eyebrows, "When we return to the palace, you should be looking for me to talk, right?"
"Li Li, feel free to go. If there's anything, just push it to me. I want the whole world to know that even if the chosen concubine isn't virtuous, she's still I's only beloved concubine. "Mo Xiuyao said in a low voice as he lightly hugged Ye Li's slender waist.
Ye Li was silent. She leaned against Mo Xiuyao's chest and slowly calmed the waves in her heart.
The news from the palace came very quickly. It didn't even wait for the next day before someone came to summon Ye Li into the palace. The two people who were admiring the flowers in the garden didn't find it strange. Since there was such a show of marriage, how could the palace not respond? Mo Xiuyao put down the brush he was painting and prepared to enter the palace with Ye Li. However, Ye Li reached out and pushed him back. "The Empress Dowager is summoning me into the palace. What are you going to do?" Mo Xiuyao smiled and said, "Could it be that if the Empress Dowager doesn't summon I, I can't enter the palace?" Ye Li smiled coldly and said, "They want to talk to me, but you have to go. If they can't say anything this time, won't they have to spend time looking for me next time? Since it's like this, it's better to let them say it all at once. I want to see what they have to say! " Speaking of this point, Ye Li was extremely depressed. She thought that she had married a husband that no one would come to steal. In the end, look at this year … … first there was that Princess Lingyun, and then there was that cousin Noble Consort Liu that Mo Xiuyao had thrown out of the city. Now there was a Miss Helian. Did these women have nothing better to do, or was it that Mo Xiuyao's face wasn't ruined enough?
