Lei Tengfeng frowned, "Then who does father think has the Imperial Jade Seal?"
Jhennam Of Gojoseon pondered for a moment and said, "With the temperament of the people in the Ding Mansion, the Imperial Jade Seal is not important to them. Mo Xiuyao is more arrogant than Mo Liufang. He disdains to use the Imperial Jade Seal to raise the prestige of the Mohist army. " Lei Tengfeng said, "Father means …" Jhennam Of Gojoseon waved his hand, "No, the Imperial Jade Seal may not be in Mo Xiuyao's hands, but it may not be in Tan Jizhi's hands either. So this trip … we must go to the northwest. "At least, the Imperial Jade Seal cannot fall into the hands of others.
"I understand." Lei Tengfeng nodded. "Father is going to Ruyang personally?" Jhennam Of Gojoseon nodded, "You go with I. There are no major events in West-Hill recently."
"I accept."
The atmosphere in the Imperial Study of the Chu Palace became more dignified. Mo Jingqi was so angry that his face turned black. He threw the invitation in his hand far away. "Mo Yuchen! What a good Mo Yuchen! Mo Xiuyao, you are very good … "Mo Jingli, who also received an invitation and entered the Imperial Study, saw the invitation marked with the Prince Ding Mansion's seal. Raising his hand to catch it, Mo Jingli smiled and said, "Brother, who made you so angry?" Seeing this brother of the same mother, Mo Jingqi's face became more ugly. He said coldly, "What are you doing in the Imperial Palace?"
Mo Jingli smiled and took out another invitation. He smiled and said, "I came to pay my respects to mother. In addition … it seems that brother also received Prince Ding's invitation. What are you planning to do? " He opened the invitation and saw the name of the heir of the Prince Ding Mansion written on it — Mo Yuchen. Yu Chen … What a good name. Mo Xiuyao, you can't hold it in anymore?
Mo Jingqi looked at his younger brother coldly. After his brother returned from the south, he had obviously become smarter and harder to deal with. If he didn't suddenly become enlightened, then there must be an expert guiding him from behind. "What are your plans? Since Mo Xiuyao sent someone to send you an invitation, does Imperial Brother plan to go? "Mo Jingli smiled and said," Prince Ding personally sent an invitation, how could Imperial Brother not go? What gift does Imperial Brother intend to give to Prince Ding? " Mo Jingqi coldly snorted. Suddenly, a malicious smile appeared on his face as he said, "But Royal Brother should go. After all, Ye Li and Royal Brother are not strangers. Furthermore, she is Princess Consort Li's elder sister. "
At the mention of this, Mo Jingli's expression became ugly. Whenever he thought of Ye Li who only knew how to cry and whine in his fu, and then thought of Ye Li who could go to the battlefield and the court and had the support of the Xu family behind her, Mo Jingli couldn't help but have a stomachache whenever he thought of the fact that Ye Li had once been his fiancée. If he had taken Ye Li back then, what would it have been like? With Ye Li's ability to defeat Jhennam Of Gojoseon of Xiling, maybe he wouldn't have needed to fight his Imperial Brother in the north and south, and would have directly attacked the Chu capital. And that Xu Qingchen, how much trouble had she caused for him in the south? If his princess consort was Ye Li, Xu Qingchen would not only not cause trouble for him, she would help him. Maybe she could even help him take down Nanzhao, and not be controlled by Nanzhao like now!
Seeing Mo Jingli's expression suddenly turn dark, Mo Jingqi's mood instantly improved. He raised an eyebrow and said, "Since Imperial Brother is going, why not bring Princess Consort Li with you. She can also reminisce about the past with Ye Li."
Mo Jingli gritted his teeth and said lightly, "Many thanks for Imperial Brother's advice. Since this is the case, Chen Di will go and prepare first. Seeing that there isn't much time left, we will depart for the northwest tomorrow morning. "
Mo Jingqi nodded and said, "Imperial Brother, please go."
When Mo Jingli left, the smile on Mo Jingqi's face disappeared without a trace. Did Mo Jingli think that he didn't know what he wanted to do in the northwest? To celebrate Mo Xiuyao's son's one-month birthday? Hmph! Mo Jingli would only want Mo Xiuyao's son to die early more than him. Because the child's mother was his former fiancée. Ye Li's existence was simply telling everyone in the world that he, King Li, was blind as a bat. You want to go to the northwest to find the Imperial Jade Seal? Mo Jingli, your appetite is a bit too big!
"Emperor?"
"Is there any news of Tan Jizhi's whereabouts?" Mo Jingqi asked coldly as he looked at the grey-clothed person kneeling in the hall.
"Emperor, please forgive me. For now, there is no news of Tan Jizhi's whereabouts."
Bang! Mo Jingqi grabbed the inkstone on the table and threw it over. The grey-clothed person on the ground naturally didn't dare to dodge. The inkstone hit his shoulder and fell to the ground. The grey-clothed person gave a muffled grunt, "Emperor, please forgive me!"
"A group of trash! Go search again. Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, you must find Tan Jizhi for zhen! "
"Yes."
There were still a few days until Prince Ding's one-month-old banquet, but Ruyang City was already bustling with noise and excitement. Because of last year's war in the northwest, many wealthy merchants fled to the borders. As a result, the commerce in the northwest had stagnated and even regressed. This time, the moment Mo Xiaobao was born, the Prince Ding Mansion announced to the world that they were wantonly celebrating the little heir. Because of the previous dynasty's treasures and the Imperial Jade Seal, a steady stream of people poured into the northwest. In less than a month, Ruyang City seemed to have slowly become prosperous. Previously, the largest city in the northwest, Xinyang City, had turned into a sea of fire. Now that the Prince Ding Mansion was stationed in Ruyang City, Ruyang City seemed to gradually become the largest city in the northwest. In order to entertain guests from all over, the common people in the city had already tidied up their homes early on, preparing to take advantage of this bustle to make a fortune.
In the Prince Ding Mansion, because of the addition of the Xu family, Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li felt a lot more relaxed. In the Xu family, other than Master Qingyun who was already old and enjoying his life in the mansion and would occasionally visit Su Zhe who was recuperating, Xu Hongyu, Xu Hongyan, and the five young masters of the Xu family, even the youngest, Xu Qingyan, could follow Xu Qingbai and help out a little. Xu Hongyu and Xu Qingchen were originally rare geniuses. With them, Mo Xiuyao immediately threw most of the affairs in the northwest to them. His days were very relaxed and comfortable.
"Li 'er, did you write this thing?" In the spacious study, several tables were placed together to form a large table. All kinds of documents and files were neatly arranged on top of it. Several people sat around the table. As they dealt with the files in their hands, they would occasionally exchange a few words. Although everyone had their own study, under normal circumstances, they still liked to deal with business in the large study. It was not cold and boring, and when they could not make up their minds, they could ask for the opinions of others. Xu Qingchen raised his head and asked as he held a file about the business plans in the northwest.
Ye Li raised her head from between the files and looked blankly at Xu Qingchen. She did not know what he was talking about. Mo Xiuyao, sitting next to her, glanced and said, "It's about the business development plan in the northwest."
"Ah … … I wrote it." Ye Li finally remembered. She said with some embarrassment, "Actually, I only have a general idea. I am not familiar with these things. Didn't you say before that it was given to Mingxi and Leng Er to handle? " Mo Xiuyao said, "Leng Er has returned to the pass. Han Mingxi has to manage the northwest and Nanzhao and Beirong by himself. He is too busy, so it was put aside for now." Hearing them say this, the others also raised their heads to look at Xu Qingchen. Xu Qingchen handed the file in his hand to Xu Hongyu. Everyone looked at it. Xu Hongyu nodded and praised, "Li 'er's idea is very novel. We can try and see if it works. " Although the Xu family was a scholarly family, they were not pedantic. They naturally understood what business meant to a city and even a country. Compared to the rich Central Plains and the Jiangnan region, the northwest was not considered to be rich. Even the food supply was relatively poor. If they could not find another way, there would be a day when the Mo Army would gradually wither away due to the poverty in the northwest. At first, when they saw Ye Li and Mo Xiuyao go in and out every day to deal with the politics of the northwest and the military affairs of the Mohist army, everyone was surprised. But when they saw the Mohist army generals appear accustomed to it, they felt very gratified. Li 'er had enough talent and ability. Most importantly, Prince Ding was willing to give her trust and space to show her ability. This made the Xu family's impression of Mo Xiuyao much better.
