Xu Qingfeng smiled and said, "Grandfather is right. Grandson has learned a lot in Sister Li 'er's army. This is all thanks to Sister Li 'er. " Everyone looked at Ye Li in surprise. Ye Li quickly waved her hand and smiled, "This is all Third Brother's own ability. I didn't help much." This was the truth. After throwing Xu Qingfeng into Qi Lin, Ye Li didn't ask any more questions. This wasn't only because she wanted to give Qin Feng absolute trust and power. It was also for Xu Qingfeng's own good. In a place like Qi Lin, if one still had to rely on connections, then it was better not to go. Otherwise, one wouldn't even know how one died. Fortunately, Xu Qingfeng also had a stubborn temper. Compared to the other elites of the Mohist army, Xu Qingfeng, who came from a normal army camp, didn't have an advantage. However, he gritted his teeth and persevered without a word. Even Qin Feng praised him.
"We were shocked when we heard that Li 'er led the army to beat back the hundreds of thousands of Xi Ling soldiers. It seems that our Xu family is going to have a female general. "Second Madam Ao was more familiar with Ye Li and didn't have any scruples when she joked. Ye Li smiled helplessly and said, "Second Aunt, you're also teasing Li 'er. How am I a general?" Mo Xiuyao looked at Ye Li with a smile and said, "Li 'er is indeed not a general. However, Li' er is more powerful than a general." Hearing this, everyone laughed again.
"Little Shizi is here …" Mother Lin walked in with the baby in her arms. It was rare that the baby was still awake. Ye Li stood up and carried the baby. Seeing the baby's white and tender face, she was very happy. Turning around, he carried the baby to Master Qingyun and said with a smile, "Grandfather, look at the baby." Master Qingyun also had five grandchildren, so he was no stranger to carrying a baby. Reaching out to take the child in his arms, he carefully looked at him, then looked at Ye Li and Mo Xiuyao and said, "This child looks more like Li 'er." Mo Xiuyao smiled and nodded, but in his heart, he did not agree. Those who had seen Mo Xiuyao and those who were close to him all said that he looked like Mo Xiuyao. Those who were close to Ye Li all said that he looked like Ye Li. However, Mo Xiuyao did not care who this little brat resembled. Ye Li smiled as she looked at Mo Xiuyao. She knew what he was thinking, but she didn't point it out.
Since Mr. Qingyun was holding the child, the others were too embarrassed to rush to see it. However, they couldn't help but glance over. Even Xu Hongyu, who had been sitting still recently, turned to look at the child in Mr. Qingyun's arms. With so many pairs of eyes staring at him, how could Mr. Qingyun not feel it? He smiled and handed the baby to Xu Hongyu and said, "Look, this child looks good."
Once the child was in Xu Hongyu's hands, the others did not have so many worries. Xu Qingyan directly pulled Xu Qingbai over to look. Although he had seen the baby before, Mo Xiaobao was getting cuter and cuter. He changed his appearance every day and could not get enough of looking at him. Xu Qingchen also stood up and walked behind her father to look at the baby in his arms. It was Madam Xu who said, "How can the child be comfortable with so many people surrounding him? Master also doesn't know how to hold a child. Let me hold him. " So the baby went from Xu Hongyu's hands to Madam Xu. Then the onlookers became Second Madam Xu and Qin Zheng.
Mo Xiaobao was passed around in everyone's hands. He did not cry. Madam Xu was surprised and said, "This child is so obedient. Even Qingze, who was the least noisy in our family, was not so obedient."
Mo Xiuyao's mouth twitched slightly. He stared at the red ball in Madam Xu's hands with disdain. Obedient? Who was the kid who cried every night and insisted on being held by Li?
Xu Hongyu smiled and said, "What's the child's name?"
Xu Qingyan answered first, "Mo Xiaobao!"
Xu Hongyu was stunned and his mouth twitched. What kind of name was this?
Ye Li pursed her lips and smiled, "I haven't had time to give him a name. I was waiting for grandfather to come and give him a name. I just gave him a nickname." Could she tell her grandfather and uncle that the baby's father's tendency to name him was to embarrass the baby when he grew up?
Mr. Qingyun was stunned for a moment, but he was very happy about it. He bowed his head and thought for a moment, "In that case, how about … Yu Chen?"
Yu, had the meaning of commanding and commanding. Chen meant emperor. Everyone present was well-read, and such a name caused everyone to be stunned.
Xu Qingbai frowned slightly. He hesitated and asked, "Grandfather, is this name …"
Mr. Qingyun smiled faintly and said, "It's just a name. I think this child is suitable for this name." Mo Xiuyao smiled faintly and nodded, "Mr. Qingyun is right. It's just a name. I's son can't use a good name? "Everyone was silent. Was this a problem of a name? No one dared to use such a name, even the emperor's son. Xu Qingbai glanced at his grandfather, who had a calm expression on his face. His grandfather was a great scholar. He would know the meaning of this name, and he would never not know what was taboo. Since his father, eldest brother, and Prince Ding did not object, everyone must know. So he smiled and said, "I thought wrong."
Madam Xu saw that everyone had no objection. She looked lovingly at the baby in her arms and smiled, "Little baby, your name will be Mo Yuchen from now on. Little Yuchen … "
Mo Xiuyao glanced at the baby and said, "Madam Xu, you don't have to be so polite. Just call him Mo Xiaobao." Mo Xiuyao spared no effort to destroy his son's reputation. He had to nail his nickname before Mo Xiaobao could speak. Mrs. Xu was stunned. She looked at the baby in her arms, who was staring at her with big round eyes. She smiled and said, "Xiao Bao … Hmm, it's really a baby." Ye Li covered her face helplessly. 'Xiao Bao, I'm sorry …
After the women and the baby went to rest, the hall quieted down. Mr. Qingyun looked sideways at Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li sitting side by side. A trace of relief flashed in his eyes and he asked, "Prince, have you really made up your mind?"
Everyone was startled and looked at Mo Xiuyao in unison. Mo Xiuyao's lips twitched slightly and he smiled coldly, "What choice do I have to make? Didn't the royal family choose a Prince Ding Mansion more than ten years ago? "
Everyone present couldn't help but fall silent. It was easy for power to intoxicate people. Back then, the Ancestral Emperor and the Ding King, Mo Lan Yun, had sworn an oath that their descendants would be brothers forever and share the Great Chu Empire. It might not have been a pretense, but it had only been a few generations, and the two families had already reached the point of life and death. The royal family's methods and actions were really too chilling. Xu Hongyu looked at Mo Xiuyao and said, "Prince, do you have any plans now?" Mo Xiuyao smiled faintly and said, "Of course I have plans, but I need to plan slowly."
Xu Hongyu nodded, "It is good that the Prince can calm down." The most worrying thing about Mo Xiuyao's current situation was that he couldn't keep his cool. Having just learned of the blood feud between his father and brother, as well as the pointless sacrifice of so many Mohist army, there weren't many people who could keep their cool. But compared to the central plains and Jiangnan, the northwest was more remote and barren. If Prince Ding was too impatient and prematurely advanced, and if Mo Jingqi decided to fight to the death, in the end, both sides would suffer and the fisherman would benefit. Mo Xiuyao understood Xu Hongyu's meaning and smiled faintly, "So many years have passed, what can't I wait for? Don't worry, Mr. Hongyu. In the future, many matters in the northwest will have to trouble Mr. Hongyu and Mr. Hongyan. "With these words, he had the intention of entrusting them with important tasks. Xu Hongyu nodded slightly, "It is my duty."
