"You …" Embarrassed, Noble Consort Liu bit her lip, gazing at Mo Xiuyao.
Mo Xiuyao remained unmoved. This time, his words were even more concise. "Scram!"
In the end, she was still a woman. After being treated so heartlessly by Mo Xiuyao, Noble Consort Liu finally got up and rushed out of the room. Mo Xiuyao looked at the bamboo shoots in his bowl with disdain, pushing the bowl to the side. Ye Li silently placed the untouched bowl of chicken soup in his hand. Softly, she said, "Drink some more." Only then did Mo Xiuyao pick up the bowl of chicken soup and slowly drink two mouthfuls. His originally furrowed brows gradually relaxed.
Ye Li picked up an untouched bowl from the side and filled it with rice for him. Only then did she pick up her chopsticks and continue eating.
Princess Changle looked at the two with a smile and said, "Of course I know that Uncle Prince Ding and Princess have a good relationship. Because if Princess Ding gives Uncle Prince Ding something that he doesn't like, Uncle Prince Ding will eat it all. However, even if someone else gives Uncle Prince Ding his favorite dish, Uncle Prince Ding will smash the bowl. Princess Consort, do you think I'm right? "
"Mischievous!" Ye Li pursed her lips and said with a smile.
Originally, Ye Li believed that after the incident at the restaurant, Noble Consort Liu would hate them to the bone and stay as far away as possible. As a result, the next morning, when they left the tavern and headed out of the city, they coincidentally ran into Prime Minister Liu's entourage. Ye Li's irritation rose to a new height. This was especially true when she saw Noble Consort Liu approach them with a calm expression, as if nothing had happened. Ye Li was left speechless.
Princess Changle, who was following beside Noble Consort Liu, secretly shrugged her shoulders at Ye Li. Squeezing out a mischievous expression, she smiled at Ye Li. The corners of Ye Li's eyes twitched as she swept a glance at Noble Consort Liu. Princess Changle shook her head slightly, rolling her eyes at the sky. Ye Li could only look up at the sky helplessly.
"Prince Ding, did you have a good rest last night?" Noble Consort Liu walked up to Mo Xiuyao and asked softly. Although her expression was still indifferent, one could hear the genuine concern in her voice.
Of her own accord, Princess Changle stopped in her tracks, standing slightly further away from Noble Consort Liu to admire the scenery. Was her Imperial Father really as suspicious as her Imperial Mother said? Then why had Imperial Father never suspected that his beloved concubine would make him a cuckold and even let her out to pester a married man?
"Nausea." Mo Xiuyao said coldly. His silver hair shone faintly in the morning light. He turned around and walked to Ye Li, leaving Noble Consort Liu, who was still looking at him. Noble Consort Liu silently gazed at the departing figure with snow-white hair. A trace of infatuation and sorrow flashed through her eyes.
Ye Li turned to look at Noble Consort Liu. Smiling faintly, she said, "Prime Minister Liu, Noble Consort, please forgive me. Normally, our Prince's temper is not so bad. It is only because he was disgusted at noon yesterday that he lost his appetite last night and this morning that he became like this. " Mo Xiuyao directly picked up Ye Li and placed her on the back of a horse. He then mounted the horse and sat behind Ye Li. Raising the reins, he took the lead and left the city.
He left behind a group of people with various expressions. Among them, Noble Consort Liu and Prime Minister Liu's expressions were particularly unsightly. There was no need to mention Noble Consort Liu. Although Prime Minister Liu was not present yesterday, he knew what had happened at the restaurant. Similarly, he felt that his daughter had gone too far. However, he was similarly displeased with Mo Xiuyao's merciless behavior in front of so many people. Glancing at Noble Consort Liu, Prime Minister Liu said in a heavy voice, "Noble Consort, it is time for us to set out. Let's go. " Noble Consort Liu unwillingly glanced at the city gate, where Ye Li and Mo Xiuyao had already disappeared. Finally, she turned around and got on the carriage.
Feng Zhiyao and the others who were left behind looked at each other. After a while, Zhuo Jing frowned and said, "Young Master, there seems to be something wrong with the Liu Family."
Xu Qingchen glanced at the carriage that had already set off. The smile on her lips was like a spring breeze, but it made people feel cold. "Something is indeed wrong. I have heard that Prince Ding rode a horse on a slanted bridge and was attracted by many women. I didn't expect that now that he is in the prime of his life, he is even more attractive to women than before. "She said it gently and elegantly, but the people who listened to her felt a chill down their spines.
Looking at the elegant carriage, Feng Zhiyao wanted to defend his boss and his good friend, but he couldn't. He had to shut his mouth silently. Even the Noble Consort of Da Chu State was so infatuated. Wasn't this attracting bees and butterflies? Seeing that everyone had tacitly agreed, Xu Qingchen nodded in satisfaction and changed the topic. "What do you think is wrong?" Zhuo Jing thought and then said with a frown, "The Emperor sending Noble Consort Liu to Nanzhao is not right. Also … Noble Consort Liu is a bit too bold. If Noble Consort Liu's words and actions reach the Emperor's ears, no matter how much the Emperor favors her, he will be ruthless. "
Xu Qingchen nodded and said, "That's right. She is so bold because she is certain that these things will not reach the Emperor. Then … this time, there are no Emperor's people among the messengers sent by Da Chu State. "
"How is that possible?" Feng Zhiyao said. They had all seen with their own eyes how suspicious Mo Jingqi was. Feng Zhiyao wondered if there was anyone in the world that Mo Jingqi could truly trust. No matter how much he trusted Prime Minister Liu and how much he doted on Noble Consort Liu, it was impossible for him not to put people around them. Xu Qingchen lowered his head and thought for a while. He said, "Then Mo Jingqi thinks that he put people around them, but in fact … those people are not his people. What … does the Liu Family want to do? " Feng Zhiyao shook his head. He couldn't understand what Young Master Qingchen couldn't figure out. He pulled the horse next to him and jumped on it. "Let's think about it later. If we don't go now, the Prince and Princess will have to go through Broken Snow Pass."
Mo Xiuyao and his people didn't encounter any difficulties in Broken Snow Pass. They went out of Broken Snow Pass one after another with Prime Minister Liu and his people. After Broken Snow Pass, it was the land of Nanjiang. The people of Nanjiang were tough and good at controlling poisonous animals. They weren't afraid, but they didn't want to get into trouble. They didn't stop on the way. They went straight to the capital of Nanzhao. Mo Xiuyao and his people were all riding fast horses, while Noble Consort Liu and her people were riding in carriages. Therefore, they left them far behind as soon as they went out of Broken Snow Pass. As a result, it was much quieter on the way. In just a few days, they had arrived at the capital of Nanzhao.
The capital of Nanzhao was still as prosperous and noisy as it was many years ago. People of different ethnic groups could be seen at the gate of the city. Perhaps it was because of Princess Anxi's wedding. Although there were many remote tribes in Nanjiang that didn't belong to the Nanzhao Kingdom, many tribal leaders would come out to give face to Princess Anxi's wedding. Therefore, the Nanzhao Kingdom's royal city was much more lively than before. At the same time, there were many more guards inside and outside the city. When Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li arrived, Princess Anxi came out of the city to welcome them in person. As soon as Ye Li jumped off the horse, Princess Anxi came up to them with her people. She said with a smile, "Prince Ding Mansion. I haven't seen you for a long time. You look even better than before." Ye Li said with a smile, "You flatter me, Princess. Congratulations on your wedding."
