A moment later, unbridled laughter sounded in the room. The tall man standing in the middle, dressed in the attire of an attendant, casually wiped his face. His ordinary appearance instantly changed. Jhennam Of Gojoseon was in his early fifties this year. His appearance was seventy to eighty percent similar to Lei Tengfeng, but he had more grace and dominance. However, the way he looked at Ye Li made her feel extremely uncomfortable. As long as one was a man, they would be able to understand what that flash of light meant. Anger and killing intent flashed across the faces of Feng Zhi Yao and the others. Ye Li was not angry. She had seen all kinds of people in her previous life. This degree was not enough for her to lose her cool. She looked indifferently at Jhennam Of Gojoseon, who was laughing wildly, and did not speak. When Jhennam Of Gojoseon finally seemed to have finished laughing, he walked to a chair at the side and sat down. Mo Fei and the other three stood respectfully behind him. Even though he was dressed in the attire of a servant, it was difficult to conceal his domineering aura.
"How did Wang Fei see through it? Such good eyesight. I admire you, "Jhennam Of Gojoseon said curiously.
Ye Li smiled, "Zhuo Jing, has this fei ever taught you what the most important thing to do if you want to disguise yourself?"
Zhuo Jing replied in a low voice, "Ordinary and unremarkable. Unnoticeable."
Jhennam Of Gojoseon raised an eyebrow and said, "I can't think of any flaws."
Zhuo Jing looked at Jhennam Of Gojoseon and then raised his head to look at Ye Li. Ye Li nodded slightly. Zhuo Jing said, "A person with a disability is not suited to disguise himself." Everyone's gaze immediately focused on Jhennam Of Gojoseon's left arm. Everyone knew that Jhennam Of Gojoseon had been defeated by Mo Liufang more than a decade ago and had only managed to survive after losing an arm. Originally, no one had paid much attention to it, but now that their attention was focused on his arm, those with good eyesight immediately noticed that something was wrong. Jhennam Of Gojoseon had not moved his left arm. His left hand was hidden in his sleeve. Although the sleeves weren't empty, it still made people feel that they were too stiff if they took a closer look. After all, no matter what it was, even if the shape was the same, it could never replace the texture of a real arm. Jhennam Of Gojoseon's expression hardened and the corners of his eyes twitched. Zhuo Jing's words had touched his sore spot. Being defeated by Mo Liufang was a shadow and humiliation that he would never be able to forget. However, Mo Liufang had been dead for a long time... In the eyes of the world, he would always be left with the impression that Lei Zhenting, the King of South Guarding Xiling, was inferior to Mo Liufang. Therefore, he placed more importance on how to defeat the Mohist army and Mo Xiuyao. Because this was the only way he could wash away his humiliation.
"Good, Princess Ding's subordinates are truly capable." A moment later, Jhennam Of Gojoseon said in a deep voice.
Ye Li nodded and smiled faintly. "Prince praises me too much."
Jhennam Of Gojoseon examined Ye Li and asked, "Just now, Princess Ding did not hesitate to reject I's letter. Will you reconsider now?"
Ye Li held her forehead, shook her head and sighed. "I cannot find a reason to reconsider."
Jhennam Of Gojoseon laughed brightly. "Does Wang Fei think that I is not as good as Mo Xiuyao?"
Ye Li tilted her head and thought for a moment. Then she shook her head and said, "How can that be? At least Prince is older than our Prince. "
Jhennam Of Gojoseon's eyes flashed. "As expected, Wang Fei is not an ordinary woman. What if I say that as long as Wang Fei follows I, I will immediately withdraw my troops from Dong Chu?"
"Impudence!" Yuan Pei was furious. He slapped the table and stood up, glaring angrily at Jhennam Of Gojoseon. The expressions of the others were not good either. Ye Li raised a hand to stop Yuan Pei. She smiled faintly and said, "For Prince to say this, does he think that Ye Li's brain is not good?" Jhennam Of Gojoseon raised an eyebrow and asked in confusion, "Why does Wang Fei say this?" Ye Li laughed coldly and said, "Xi Ling's army of hundreds of thousands has invaded our Da Chu State and finally reached Jiangxia. It would not be easy for Prince to withdraw his troops now, right? Besides … I feel that rather than humiliating the country in exchange for Prince's withdrawal, it would be more convenient to directly exchange for Prince. Does Prince agree? "
Hearing this, the expressions of the Xi Ling's followers changed. The man who looked like a general pulled out his sword with a clang and stood in front of Jhennam Of Gojoseon to protect him. Ye Li raised an eyebrow and smiled without speaking.
Jhennam Of Gojoseon raised his hand and pressed down on the weapon in his subordinate's hand. He said, "Everyone in this room is an expert. Princess Ding is willing to let you bring your sword in. This means that she is confident that your sword is not a threat. Put it down. " That person looked at Ye Li with some reluctance. In the end, he obeyed Jhennam Of Gojoseon's orders and put away the sword in his hand. Seeing that he was about to become a prisoner, Jhennam Of Gojoseon was clearly not in a hurry. As the host, Ye Li was naturally not in a hurry. She sat leisurely and drank tea. After a while, Jhennam Of Gojoseon sighed and said, "Even though I took a risk by coming here today, seeing Wang Fei, I feel that this trip was not in vain. What are Wang Fei's plans? " Ye Li put down her teacup and said, "I have said that the others can leave, but I invite Prince to stay for a few days." Jhennam Of Gojoseon shook his head and said, "I am busy with military affairs. I am afraid that I will have to disappoint Wang Fei's good intentions."
"No matter. If Prince feels that you can break out of Jiangxia with just the few of you, then feel free. As you wish. "
Jhennam Of Gojoseon lowered his head and thought for a moment. He raised his head and said with a smile, "How about this, I have someone that Wang Fei might be interested in. This person can be considered a meeting gift for Wang Fei. "
Ye Li raised an eyebrow. Her heart moved slightly, but her expression did not change as she looked at him calmly. Jhennam Of Gojoseon did not beat around the bush and said bluntly, "The Southern Marquis Shizi, I heard that he is Wang Fei's brother-in-law?"
"The Southern Marquis Shizi is in Prince Of Gojoseon's hands?" Jhennam Of Gojoseon smiled but did not speak. Ye Li asked, "How can I trust Prince Of Gojoseon?" Jhennam Of Gojoseon said, "I can let Wang Fei meet him first."
Seeing him like this, Ye Li knew that there was an eighty percent chance that the Southern Marquis Shizi was in Jhennam Of Gojoseon's hands. The same question arose. Should she use Jhennam Of Gojoseon to exchange for the Southern Marquis Shizi?
After a long silence, Ye Li finally raised her head and said, "Alright, when I see the Southern Marquis Shizi, this fei will immediately let Prince Of Gojoseon out of the city."
"It's a deal."
She sent people to take Jhennam Of Gojoseon and the others away. The study instantly exploded. Yuan Pei anxiously asked, "Wang Fei, using Jhennam Of Gojoseon to exchange for the Southern Marquis Shizi, isn't it too … …" Everyone could see that this was definitely a losing trade. The Southern Marquis Shizi and Jhennam Of Gojoseon were too different in terms of weight. Ye Li smiled as she looked at Feng Zhiyao and asked, "Feng San, what do you think?" Feng Zhiyao used his fan to point at his chin and thought for a while before saying, "Jhennam Of Gojoseon cannot be killed. Once Jhennam Of Gojoseon dies, Jiangxia and the places occupied by Xi Ling will definitely incur Xi Ling's bloody revenge. Also, the Jhennam Of Gojoseon's Shizi, Lei Tengfeng, who is stationed in Xinyang, is also not an easy character to deal with. If he crazily attacks Jiangxia to avenge his father, we may not be able to hold on. Also, once Jhennam Of Gojoseon dies, the current balance between the three countries and the imperial court's opinion towards the Mohist army will undergo an unpredictable change. At that time, we … … Also, although the Southern Marquis has always been neutral and does not like to involve himself in worldly affairs, he still has some power in the imperial court and the military. If we save the Southern Marquis Shizi, even if the Ding Palace does not have an additional ally, at least they will not be enemies. "
