"This is the Old Madame of Hua State." Mo Xiuyao introduced her to Ye Li in a soft voice.
Only then did Ye Li realize that this woman was actually Tian Xiang's grandmother.
Then Mo Xiuyao introduced Ye Li to each of the people present. Unsurprisingly, they were all relatives of high officials or members of the royal family. The woman who spoke first was the Emperor and Prince Li's aunt, Princess Zhaoren. She was also Princess Rong Hua's biological mother. Thinking of Princess Rong Hua's arrogant appearance at the Hundred Flower Festival, Ye Li could only sigh. They were indeed mother and daughter. But she didn't know why Princess Zhaoren was so obviously hostile to her. It couldn't be because of Princess Rong Hua, right?
When Mo Xiuyao introduced Ye Li, the people present secretly reevaluated the Third Young Miss of the Ye Family who was rejected by Prince Li and then married to Prince Ding. Prince Ding personally introduced her to the most powerful nobles of the Da Chu State, which was enough to show how much importance he attached to her. Therefore, except for Mo Jingli, whose face was even uglier, the atmosphere in the hall was as harmonious and friendly as always.
"Ye Li!"
In the garden of Prince Li's Mansion, Hua Tian Xiang pulled Ye Li and walked while talking. Suddenly, a tall figure appeared in front of them and blocked their way.
"Your Highness Prince Li, what's the matter?" Hua Tian Xiang stood in front of Ye Li and raised her beautiful face to ask. Since the incident at Chu Xiang Pavilion, Hua Tian Xiang's favorable impression of Prince Li had plummeted and was now close to negative value. Seeing Mo Jingli appear in front of them with an unfriendly expression, she only thought that he wanted to make trouble for Ye Li. Mo Jingli frowned unhappily. "I am not looking for you." Hua Tian Xiang said without any trace of politeness: "Shouldn't Prince be greeting guests now? Most of the women in this garden were from various manors, so it would be inconvenient for the Prince to enter and leave. Even if Prince doesn't care about his own reputation, he should at least care about others. "
"I have something to say to Ye Li. Move aside," Mo Jingli said impatiently.
"Just say what you want to say. Li 'er can hear you," Hua Tianxiang said.
Mo Jingli narrowed his eyes dangerously. "I said move!"
Hua Tianxiang still wanted to say something, but Ye Li pulled her back. "Tianxiang, go and see if Murong and the others have arrived. I'll be right there. "
"But …" Hua Tianxiang glanced at Mo Jingli worriedly. Ye Li said with a smile, "Don't worry, Xiuyao will come to find me after he's done talking with Old Madam Hua." Hearing this, Hua Tianxiang blinked her eyes at Ye Li playfully and said with a teasing tone, "Xiu … Yao … Okay, I'll go find Murong. You … be careful. "After saying that, she gave Mo Jingli a warning look, then waved to Ye Li and turned to leave. Looking at Hua Tianxiang's rare childish behavior, Ye Li found it funny, but she was also very touched. Hua Tianxiang was a real girl from a noble family. If it weren't for herself, she would never take the initiative to provoke Mo Jingli. Looking at Hua Tianxiang's departing figure, Mo Jingli's originally gloomy face could drip ink.
When Hua Tianxiang disappeared into the garden, Ye Li put away the smile on her face and turned to look at Mo Jingli. "Prince, what do you want to say?"
"Ye Li, good job!" Mo Jingli gritted his teeth.
Ye Li looked at Mo Jingli from head to toe and said gently, "I don't understand what Prince is talking about."
"Humph! Do you think I will just let go of what happened last night? "Mo Jingli stared at her and sneered.
"I thought … it wasn't Prince's turn to say these words." It was clearly him who found people to kidnap her and wanted to do something bad to her. Why did it seem like she had done something wrong to him? What was wrong with this world? Ye Li couldn't help but wonder.
"Don't tell me you want to take revenge on I?" Mo Jingli ridiculed disdainfully.
That's not necessary. It's not a big deal. This girl will take revenge on the spot. "If Prince doesn't have anything else, Ye Li will take her leave."
"Stop right there!" Mo Jingli said angrily. He grabbed Ye Li and pushed her behind the fake mountain. Ye Li looked down at the hand holding her wrist and her face darkened, "Your Highness Prince Li, please have some self-respect!"
"Self-respect?" Mo Jingli sneered disdainfully, "Who do you think you are? You're just a woman that I don't want. Do you think you can do anything just because you're related to Mo Xiuyao? Tell me … if someone comes over and sees this, do you still have the face to marry Mo Xiuyao? Or should I say, even that trash Mo Xiuyao will despise you? "
Ye Li's half closed eyes flashed with danger, "Your Highness Prince Li, please let me go."
"What can you do if I don't let you go?" Mo Jingli sneered. He looked at the delicate woman in front of him as if he was looking at a caged bird. It was a pity that he didn't know that the woman in front of him looked delicate and graceful, but inside, she was a falcon that could devour people. Ye Li's lips curled up, "How is it? Like this! " Her free hand grabbed Mo Jingli's arm with agility and strength. With just a little bit of force, he felt a piercing pain. Before Mo Jingli could react, he was thrown to the ground. What was even more unfortunate was that because the two of them were standing under the fake mountain, the back of Mo Jingli's head hit the fake mountain and he fainted on the spot. Ye Li also didn't expect this to happen. She immediately retracted her attack and bent down to check that Mo Jingli was fine. Then she stood up and lifted her leg to kick Mo Jingli a few times to appease her anger. Her previous profession made her more familiar with the human body than most people. Naturally, she knew how to inflict pain without leaving a scar.
After calming down the anger in her heart, Ye Li couldn't help but frown. It wasn't a good thing to knock out Prince Li in the Prince Li Manor, especially on the day of his wedding. However, it wasn't an unexplainable problem. Glancing at the unconscious person on the ground, Ye Li calmly stepped over the obstacle and calmly walked out.
After leaving the fake mountain and passing through a few corners, she saw Hua Tian Xiang and Mu Rongting waiting there with worried expressions. Seeing Ye Li walk over, they quickly went up to her. "Li Li, are you alright? Did Prince Li do anything to you? "Mu Rongting anxiously grabbed Ye Li and asked.
Ye Li smiled, "Don't you see that I'm fine? What can he do to me in broad daylight? "
Mu Rongting smiled embarrassedly, "I thought too much. However, you should stay away from Prince Li."
Hua Tian Xiang nodded in agreement and curiously asked, "Why are you done so quickly?"
Ye Li spread her hands and said, "There wasn't much to say in the first place."
"Let's not talk about these dampeners. Let's go sit down and drink some tea. I really envy Zheng 'er. Lord Qin never forces Zheng' er to attend a banquet she doesn't like. "
Ye Li nodded and walked with the two of them to a place with many people.
The wedding was held as scheduled. This made the wedding, which was a little awkward because they had missed the wedding, look forward to a happy ending. That was if they could ignore Prince Li's face, which looked more like he was attending a funeral. Ye Li sat next to Hua Tian Xiang and saw Mo Xiuyao looking at her with a smile. Then his gaze moved to Mo Jingli, who was holding a piece of red silk and walking side by side with Ye Ying. The smile in his eyes deepened. Almost immediately, Ye Li understood that Mo Xiuyao must have known about what happened to Mo Jingli in the afternoon. However, seeing Mo Xiuyao's gaze, Ye Li felt that perhaps the matter wasn't over yet.
