Thinking about Noble Consort Liu's deduction, Mo Jingqi's face became more and more gloomy. If Mo Xiuyao really got the Imperial Jade Seal, then would it really be … the Mandate of Heaven? It seemed that Mo Xiuyao really wanted to rule the world. Thinking of this, Mo Jingqi naturally couldn't sit still. He stood up and walked out. Noble Consort Liu didn't stop him. She just watched him go out with an indifferent expression. Hearing the sound of the imperial carriage, the palace was silent again.
"You didn't mention the Xu family." Tan Jizhi's voice sounded in the palace.
"You haven't left yet." Noble Consort Liu's face darkened. She said unhappily. Knowing that he wasn't welcome, Tan Jizhi didn't force her. He said, "I'm leaving right away. It seems that His Majesty is also interested in the Imperial Jade Seal?" Noble Consort Liu snorted. "You didn't tell him about the Imperial Jade Seal. Do you think he won't suspect you when he comes back to his senses?" Mo Jingqi didn't know anything else, but he was good at suspecting people. As long as there was a trace, no matter whether it was true or not, he would suspect him first. Tan Jizhi said carelessly, "I've been at his beck and call for ten years. I'm tired. I'm preparing to change my identity. I'm afraid I won't have so much time to see Noble Consort Liu in the future. I really don't want to leave. "
"Get out!" Noble Consort Liu said coldly.
Tan Jizhi sighed. He walked to Noble Consort Liu's side and lifted a strand of her hair. He said softly, "Ruoyou, when we get the world in the future, I'll let you deal with Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li personally …"
"Get out!"
In Ruyang City.
Mo Xiuyao leaned against the couch and looked at Prince De and Mo Jingyu in front of him. Last night, Su Zhe suddenly fell seriously ill and couldn't even get out of bed this morning. Naturally, he couldn't attend this meeting. As for Mo Jian, he seemed to have been forgotten and only sat on the side to accompany the guests. After a night, Prince De's expression became much more restrained. Mo Xiuyao nodded secretly. This was the Prince De who had escaped unscathed from the fight for the throne. After all these years of living like a prince, she was afraid that he had forgotten the prudence of the royal family.
Lowering his head to take a sip of tea, Mo Xiuyao asked, "King De and King Yu, what decree does the Emperor have for I?"
King De and King Yu looked at each other. They could hear the ridicule in Mo Xiuyao's words. King Yu cupped his hands and said, "Prince Ding, please forgive me. Uncle and I are only here on orders to convey the emperor's intentions. Presumably, Prince already understood yesterday that His Majesty's intention is for His Majesty to immediately return to the capital. Of course, although His Majesty's order in his rage cannot be withdrawn, His Majesty will naturally return everything that belongs to Prince to Prince. " King Yu didn't dare to say anything more. He only explained Mo Jingqi's intentions in full detail. He wasn't willing to say anything else.
Mo Xiuyao laughed loudly and said, "I understand Your Majesty's meaning. But I'm afraid it won't be as the Emperor wishes. "
King Yu's heart sank. Was Prince Ding determined to fall out with the Da Chu State?
Mo Xiuyao raised his hand to stop him from speaking and said, "King Yu, please go back and inform the Emperor that the Mohist army will remember the Emperor's previous actions. Even if I am willing to take the risk to trust the Emperor, I'm afraid the Mohist army will not agree. " King Yu swallowed his saliva with difficulty and said with difficulty, "The Prince Ding Mansion has been loyal to the country for generations. Why is the Prince so decisive? Even if there is anything you are dissatisfied with, as long as the Prince says it out loud, I will definitely report it to the Emperor and discuss it again. "Mo Xiuyao raised his eyebrows and said," Discuss again? I appreciate King Yu's good intentions. At the same time, King Yu can also tell the Emperor and the ministers that as long as I am here, the Western Tomb will not invade the Da Chu State from the northwest. " King Yu felt bitter in his heart. As long as the Mohist army was in the northwest, the Western Tomb would naturally not have the chance to invade from the northwest. However, the Western Tomb and the Da Chu State shared a border in the southwest. Although the journey was several times more dangerous than the one in the northwest, as long as one had the will, the Da Chu State was still weak in the southwest border. It was not impossible for the Western Tomb to invade the Da Chu State from the southwest.
King De looked at Mo Xiuyao and asked, "Prince Ding, have you made up your mind?"
Mo Xiuyao lowered his eyes and smiled indifferently, "I just want to give the Mohist army and their wives and children a way out. The Prince Ding Mansion has defended the Da Chu State for generations. Even if there is no merit, there is still hard work. I can't let the Prince Ding Mansion end here from I, right? If that's the case, how can I face my royal father, elder brother, and the ancestors of the Prince Ding Mansion in the future? "
King De was silent for a long time, then nodded and said, "Alright, I and King Yu can't persuade you. We have already passed on the Emperor's decree, so we won't say anything else. I only hope that Prince Ding will not forget that the men of the Ding Mansion and the Mohist army are still citizens of the Da Chu State. "
Mo Xiuyao smiled without saying a word.
After ordering people to send King De and King Yu back to the guest courtyard to rest, Ye Li walked out from behind while holding onto the girl's hand. She smiled faintly and said, "After not seeing you for one night, King De has changed quite a bit."
Mo Xiuyao stood up to support her. He waved his hand to dismiss the girl and said, "To be able to return safely from the hands of the previous Emperor for so many years, King De is also an old fox who has cultivated to become a spirit. It's just that he's been a little too complacent these past few years. He thinks that just because Mo Jingqi calls him Imperial Uncle, he really respects him like an uncle? " She didn't know that Mo Jingqi hated those old officials and elders who suppressed him the most. He didn't need to be instigated. As long as there was a chance, Mo Jingqi wanted to kill them.
"Now that he has taken out his righteous words to persuade I, even if I don't give him face, I still have to let them safely return to the Chu capital."
Slowly sitting down, Ye Li recalled the performance of the two Princes just now. If it was said that he was a lobbyist for Mo Jingqi, he would lack some persuasiveness. He only said what Mo Jingqi meant, and then gave Mo Xiuyao a few sentences. It was obvious that neither of them wanted to really anger Mo Xiuyao. Ye Li smiled faintly and said, "You originally planned to let them go back?" Mo Xiuyao nodded slightly, sat down beside him and said, "Although these two people can't do much, if they just want to find trouble for Mo Jingqi, it's enough. I don't want to pay attention to them for the next few months. " Lowering his head to look at Ye Li's round belly, he raised his hand and gently stroked it. Coincidentally, the baby in her belly kicked. Mo Xiuyao raised his brows. Seeing Ye Li frown slightly, he said, "This kid really doesn't know his place. He must be properly trained after he is born."
Ye Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She didn't know if it was her imagination, but as long as Mo Xiuyao was by her side, especially when she touched him, the child in her stomach would become especially lively. He said helplessly, "What can a fetus know? Prince is becoming more and more childish." Mo Xiuyao raised his sword-like eyebrows. He made up his mind that when the child was born, he would definitely teach him a good lesson.
A few days later, King De and King Yu bid farewell to Mo Xiuyao and prepared to return to the capital. However, Su Zhe was seriously ill. When King Yu personally went to take a look, Su Zhe was already skinny to the point of skin and bones, and had fallen into a coma. That appearance could not be faked no matter what. Not to mention returning to the capital, even if he did not take good care of himself, he would still be able to die from a cold. However, the two kings knew that the northwest was not a place they could stay for long. He could only bid farewell to Mo Xiuyao and return to the capital to report to the emperor. When Su Zhe was better, he would send someone to bring him back to the capital. Mo Xiuyao naturally wouldn't keep them. The two of them and Mo Jian didn't pursue the matter of why there were less than half of the guards left with Mo Jian and Mo Jian. They set off on the same day. Mo Xiuyao only smiled indifferently when he heard this. He sent Zhang Yu and Lu Jinxian, who was stationed in Ruyang, to personally escort the two Princes out of the city.
