From the main entrance, Ye Li walked out, still dressed in white. Standing on the steps outside, she glanced down at the nobles and Mo Jingqi, whose expression was slightly heavy. She slowly walked to Mo Jingqi and bowed slightly. "Ding King's Consort Ye Li welcomes Your Majesty."
Mo Jingqi was startled. His gaze was complicated as he looked at the kneeling woman in white. However, he did not reveal any hesitation on his face. With a gratified smile, he said, "It's great that Ding King's Consort is safe and sound. This way, We can answer to Prince Ding. Was the Consort frightened? " Ye Li pursed her lips and smiled faintly. "It was indeed a little frightening. However, the guards of the King's Mansion were personally arranged by Prince. Ye Li believes that as long as they are still breathing, they will not let anyone harm Ye Li."
"Consort is right. This subordinate swears to protect Consort with our lives." Standing by the side, Chief Steward Mo said in a low voice.
"Swears to protect Consort with our lives!" The guards outside the main entrance said in unison.
Mo Jingqi's expression darkened slightly. He forced a stiff smile and said, "Everyone in the Prince Ding Mansion is loyal and righteous. Consort and Prince Ding are really fortunate. Pass on Our decree. Tonight, all the guards of the King's Mansion will be rewarded with ten taels of gold. "
Ye Li smiled. "Many thanks for Your Majesty's grace. Please come in, Your Majesty."
Mo Jingqi was about to step in when he saw the faint traces of blood seeping out from the main entrance. The morning breeze blew slightly. The smell of blood from the main entrance was even stronger than outside. Just by imagining, one could imagine how intense the killing in the Prince Ding Mansion was. Mo Jingqi's expression stiffened. He smiled and said, "Now that Prince Ding is not in the mansion, We will not enter. Consort was frightened today and should rest well. Later, We will have the Empress send a few imperial physicians to treat Consort. We will return to the palace first. The morning court will begin soon. "
Ye Li nodded, respectfully saying, "Since that is the case, Ye Li respectfully sends Your Majesty off."
Mo Jingqi waved his hand and turned to return to the dragon carriage. Not long after, the dragon carriage headed towards the Imperial Palace under the escort of the palace guards and nobles. Ye Li stood outside the gate until Long Yang disappeared at the corner of the street. Chief Steward Mo came forward and said, "Wangfei …" Ye Li smiled faintly and said, "Let's go home."
Turning around to return to the fu, Ye Li slowly walked through the blood-soaked corridors of the garden. She coldly looked at the corpses being carried away or still lying in the courtyard. In the end, she walked back to the study.
Xu Hongyan was still sitting in the study drinking tea, just like when Ye Li had left. However, there was an additional volume of poetry in his hand that he had read halfway. When he heard Ye Li come in, he put down the book in his hand, looked at her and asked, "Are you okay?"
Ye Li smiled and said apologetically, "I've made uncle worry."
Xu Hongyan shook his head and said, "Right now, our family can't help you much. Are there any casualties in the fu?" Ye Li sighed softly and said, "Deaths and injuries are unavoidable. Everything is fine. Li 'er will handle it properly. Uncle, don't worry. "
Xu Hongyan said softly, "Uncle only found out tonight that Li 'er is much more reliable than your second brother. You can deal with these matters as you see fit. Uncle won't say too much. If there is anything our family can help with, just send someone to the Imperial Censor Manor to inform us. "
Ye Li nodded and said softly, "Li 'er understands. I've made uncle worry."
"Wangfei." Not long after, Feng Zhiyao and the rest finished handling the matters outside and came in to report. Ye Li nodded and invited everyone to sit down. She asked softly, "How are things going?" Feng Zhiyao smiled in high spirits and said, "Wangfei, don't worry. We've already caught all the enemies in one fell swoop. Although General Sun hasn't returned yet, is wangfei still worried about the Black Cloud Cavalry's strength? "
Ye Li smiled and said, "I believe in General Sun and the Black Cloud Cavalry's ability. Everyone, tell me about your own situation. "
Zhang Qilan said in a clear voice, "Reporting to Princess Consort, all the assassins outside Prince Ding's fu have been taken down. Those who resist stubbornly, will be killed!" A mighty military general, even if it was a simple report, it was filled with killing intent.
"Reporting to wangfei, all the suspicious people in the capital have fallen into the hands of the Shadow Guard. 36 people who resisted were executed." Mo Hua reported in a deep voice.
Qin Feng stood with his hands by his side and said indifferently, "All the assassins who entered the Prince Ding Mansion were killed without mercy."
Mo Hua raised his head and looked at Qin Feng without saying anything. Feng Zhiyao waved his folding fan and said with a smile, "It seems like we've caught all those bastards tonight. We'll be busy these two days. Qin Feng, don't fight with me. "Qin Feng didn't even lift his eyelids and said indifferently," This subordinate will naturally listen to wangfei's orders. " Feng Zhiyao curled his lips and looked at Ye Li eagerly. Ye Li smiled and said, "If Feng San is interested, you can follow Qin Feng to take a look. You can also give them some advice. After all, they have too little experience in this area. "Feng Zhiyao's eyes lit up and he cupped his hands and said with a smile," Thank you wangfei. "
"Subordinate Sun Yan requests to see wangfei." Sun Yan's deep voice came from outside the door.
Ye Li said with a smile, "General Sun, please come in. We'll be waiting for you."
Sun Yan pushed open the door and came in. He looked at everyone present and cupped his hands to Ye Li, saying, "Wangfei has great foresight. This subordinate sent people to guard all the important roads leaving the capital. At five o 'clock in the morning, we encountered many suspicious people who escaped from the capital. We killed twenty six people on the spot and captured seven alive. Wangfei, please give your orders. "
Ye Li rubbed her forehead and said, "We captured so many people. Our Prince Ding Mansion definitely won't be able to lock them up. Qin Feng, Zhuo Jing, you should choose early. If there's no use, send them to the Supreme Court. "Qin Feng and Zhuo Jing both nodded and turned to leave. Feng Zhiyao looked at everyone and asked with a smile, "Wangfei, what do you plan to do with Mu Qingcang?" Other than Mo Hua, who was on the battlefield, Zhang Qilan and Sun Yan were stunned. "Mu Qingcang?" Although they were in the military, they had heard of Mu Qingcang's reputation as the number one expert in Da Chu State. They didn't expect Mu Qingcang to fall into wangfei's hands.
Xu Hongyan frowned and asked, "Mu Qingcang is the illegitimate son of Marquis Muyang's fu?"
Director Mo said with a smile, "That's right. Although not many people know of Mu Qingcang's family background, there are still a few families in the capital that know. He is Marquis Muyang's eldest son and the eldest brother of Marquis Muyang's heir, Mu Yang. "
Zhang Qilan and Sun Yan were stunned again. They only knew of Mu Qingcang's reputation as the number one expert, but didn't know he had such a background. However, Marquis Muyang only had Mu Yang, his only son, when he was in his thirties. If he had a son as old as Mu Qingcang, it was still acceptable. However, the secrets of the noble families were not known to outsiders. Xu Hongyan was silent for a long time. In the end, he sighed deeply and stood up, saying, "Li 'er, you can decide on these matters yourself. This old man is a bit tired and will return to my room to rest for a while." Ye Li nodded and hurriedly had someone send Xu Hongyan back to his room. Seeing Xu Hongyan leave, Feng Zhiyao asked in confusion, "What does Xu daren mean?" Ye Li said lightly, "Nothing. Uncle is just disappointed in some people and some matters." With Second Uncle's nimble mind, how could he not guess who was behind Mu Qingcang?
