"What about the guy who kidnapped Third Miss Ye?"
"Catch him and give him an arm and a leg as a wedding gift to Mo Jingli."
Although the city gate had long been closed, Ye Li still returned to the Minister's Mansion before dawn with some effort. As soon as she entered her room, Qing Shuang and Qing Yu greeted her. The unconcealable anxiety on their faces also turned into relief. Qing Yu calmly served Ye Li a cup of tea. It was as if the usually elegant and dignified Ye Li was not bothered by the fact that she was able to jump in through the window in front of her. Qing Shuang patted her chest and exhaled, "Miss, you're finally back. Qing Shuang was worried to death." Ye Li smiled and said, "What's there to worry about when someone is following me? Right, Qing Luan? "
A figure fell lightly outside the window. It was Qing Luan who came from the Xu family with Qing Yu. Qing Luan pursed her lips and smiled, "Miss, you're so powerful. Qing Luan followed you all the way and no one noticed. Who knew that I couldn't hide from you." Ye Li smiled and said, "In fact, I didn't notice you, but I seemed to smell a faint, special and familiar fragrance along the way. The person who caught me … the fragrance on his body was not light, so he didn't smell it. "Qing Luan lowered her head in frustration and secretly decided that she would never use any incense in the future. In fact, the incense she used was very light. Ordinary people would not notice it at all. But Ye Li's senses were indeed much more sensitive than ordinary people.
"Did anything interesting happen in the woods after I left?" Ye Li sat down and asked while drinking the freshly brewed tea.
Qing Luan also learned from Ye Li's action and came in through the window. She smiled and said, "That person … was thrown into a pool in the depths of the woods."
"Prince Ding?"
"Miss is wise." Qing Luan smiled in a good mood. Thinking of the embarrassing appearance of someone who was tied to a tree and thrown into the pool, Qing Luan felt that tonight's worry was not in vain. She believed that Eldest Young Master would also like this news very much. "This servant also saw someone beside Prince Ding. They seemed to have a very good relationship."
Ye Li raised her eyebrows and looked at Qing Luan. Qing Luan did not keep her in suspense and said, "It's the famous Young Master Feng San in the capital." Ye Li hadn't thought about the relationship between Feng Zhiyao and Mo Xiuyao. This also explained why Feng Zhiyao had been so curious about her during the Hundred Flower Festival.
"So His Highness Prince Ding also went to save Miss? Young Miss didn't see Prince Ding? "Qing Shuang blinked her eyes and asked curiously.
Ye Li shook her head. She knew that there were other people in the forest at that time. She could vaguely guess who it was, but she had no intention of meeting them, so she ignored them. Since Mo Xiuyao did not order anyone to stop Qing Luan, he must have understood her intentions. There was no need to waste words when interacting with smart people. Very good.
She casually threw a jade pendant to Qing Luan and said, "Give it to Eldest Cousin. Ask him to see if he can find out who the owner of this jade pendant is."
Qing Luan caught it in her hand and said with a gloating smile, "Then this servant has to be quick. Prince Ding reserved one of his hands and one of his legs for Li Wang as a congratulatory gift. If he didn't run fast, I'm afraid he would be in trouble tonight. "
"His qinggong is not bad. If there is time, find a way to keep him. Maybe he can help us with something. " If it was too late, then there was no other way. She did not think that a person who would enter the fu in the middle of the night to kidnap an innocent woman would be a kind person. However, that person clearly knew that she was awake, but still took her to Mo Jingli. Moreover, he did not have any intention of reminding Mo Jingli. It could be seen that he was a very interesting person. Of course, it was more likely that Mo Jingli had unintentionally offended this person.
Qing Yu stood at the side and looked at this and that. She asked with a strange expression, "Can tomorrow's wedding still be held as scheduled?"
Qing Luan waved her hand indifferently and said, "It should be fine. I heard Feng Zhi Yao instructing Prince Ding's guards to send Prince Li's men to rescue his Master when the sun is about to rise. "Qing Yu nodded her head and said," Since that's the case, Young Miss should quickly rest while it's still early. If you don't look well tomorrow, people will criticize you. "
Qing Shuang also nodded in agreement. She did not want others to take the opportunity to ruin Miss's reputation.
"… …"
Did no one consider that a wedding was also very tiring? If the groom fainted or something during the wedding tomorrow … … Ye Li thought irresponsibly and let a few maids change her clothes and push her to bed to sleep.
Shangshu fu
Early in the morning, there were people coming and going. Ye Li brought Ye Shan and Ye Lin to sit in Old Madam Ye's Rongle Hall to accompany her. The courtyard where Ye Ying lived was already busy before dawn. Wang Shi disliked Ye Lin and Ye Shan for being a hindrance and was even more afraid that Ye Li would take the opportunity to do something. She did not want them to accompany her. Instead, she brought two nieces from her maternal family to accompany Ye Ying. Ye Li was naturally happy and relaxed. She came to greet Old Madam early in the morning and stayed here to accompany Old Madam. Anyway, she could not stay in Qing Yi Xuan for the whole day. That would only be gossiped about.
Old Madam Ye's face was full of joy. Even her face was much more amiable when facing everyone. Ye Lin and Ye Shan naturally would not let go of this opportunity. They joked and flattered in front of Old Madam Ye. Ye Li drank tea calmly while silently wondering if she should join in the fun and watch a play in the next few days.
When it was close to noon, Old Madam Ye's white eyebrows gradually frowned. She ordered the people around her, "Go out and see if the wedding party has arrived."
After a while, the people who were sent out hurriedly came back. They wiped their sweat and reported, "Old Madam … The wedding party has not arrived yet."
Old Madam Ye's smiling face suddenly darkened. It was almost noon. It was inauspicious to come in the afternoon to escort the bride.
"Is Prince Li really going to abandon Fourth Sister again?" The youngest, Ye Shan, suddenly asked.
"Shan 'er!" Ye Shan's birth mother was so scared that her face turned pale.
"How dare you! Today is Fourth Sister's big day. What nonsense are you talking about? Go out! "Ye Li said sternly. She glanced at Ye Shan before Old Madam Ye got angry. Ye Shan moved her lips and wanted to say something. Ye Lin quickly pulled her and her birth mother and dragged Ye Shan out.
"Shan 'er is young and speaks without thinking. It's Li' er's fault for not teaching her properly. Grandmother, please don't be angry. "Ye Li looked at Old Madam Ye and said softly.
"Third Miss is right. Sixth Miss is a little girl. It's inevitable that she has some thoughts. Fortunately, everyone here is our family. Old Madam, please don't be angry because today is Fourth Miss's big day." Because Ye Shan was pregnant, Concubine Zhao was given a seat as an exception. At this time, she quickly stood up and pleaded with Old Madam Ye. Old Madam Ye was not in the mood to argue with Ye Shan. She waved her hand and said, "Go and ask Master to come here. Also, send someone to check. "Knowing that Old Madam Ye was not in a good mood, the servant did not dare to say anything and hurriedly left.
