"Princess Ding." Mo Xiaoyun, who hadn't said anything, suddenly opened his mouth. He walked in front of Ye Li and said in a deep voice, "Thank you for saving my imperial sister. I can't repay you for saving my life. Please accept a bow from this little prince. "After speaking, he bowed deeply to Ye Li. Ye Li. Seeing the twelve to thirteen year old youth bowing so solemnly, Ye Li smiled faintly and said, "Duke of Qin is too polite. It's just a small matter. Duke of Qin, please take good care of Princess Zhen Ning. Farewell. "
Seeing the family of three walk out of the imperial garden surrounded by guards, Mo Jingli's heart relaxed. Only now did he truly believe that perhaps Mo Xiuyao really wasn't interested in Da Chu State's matters.
In the carriage leaving the palace, Leng Junhan, who was lying in Ye Li's arms, had already fallen asleep from exhaustion. Mo Xiaobao sat in Mo Xiuyao's arms. Although he hadn't fallen asleep, he didn't have the same energy as when he was in the palace. After all, he was only a five to six year old child. Making a fuss for half a day was enough to tire them out.
Ye Li gently patted Leng Junhan and asked, "Xiuyao, is Noble Consort Liu dead?"
Mo Xiuyao shook his head and said, "Not necessarily. Noble Consort Liu has been in the imperial harem for more than ten years. Even if the monkeys scatter when the tree falls, she still has some power that she can use. Today, there are so many people coming and going in the palace. It's not impossible for her to escape the palace. "
Ye Li frowned and said, "Since she still has people she can use, why did she treat Princess Zhen Ning like that? Could it be that she really wanted to burn Princess Zhen Ning to death? " Thinking of this, Ye Li couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. How ruthless did she have to be to treat her own daughter like that? Even if this daughter's father wasn't the person she loved, the child was still her flesh and blood. Princess Zhen Ning risked being punished by the Empress Dowager to see her, but she received such a return. No wonder her eyes were like dead ashes when she was rescued.
Mo Xiuyao shook his head and said, "I don't know. Tell the people below to pay attention. Once that woman appears, kill her without mercy! " He wasn't interested in whether Noble Consort Liu wanted to burn Princess Zhen Ning to death or why she wanted to burn Princess Zhen Ning to death. But if it was true, Noble Consort Liu had to die! Keeping such a vicious and merciless woman alive would definitely be a disaster.
Ye Li nodded silently. She had no pity or sympathy for Noble Consort Liu.
"I heard from Xiaobao that Mu Yang's wife was rude to you in the garden?" Mo Xiuyao asked faintly, throwing the matter of Noble Consort Liu to the back of his mind.
Ye Li glanced at Mo Xiaobao who was complaining first and said with a smile, "She's just a woman twisted by jealousy, do you think I can deal with her? Don't worry, Yaoji is not easy to deal with. I won't let her have an easy time. " Mo Xiuyao snorted softly and said, "Sure enough, I was too soft-hearted to Marquis Muyang's Mansion back then." Thinking of some of the grievances with Marquis Muyang's Mansion, Mo Xiuyao regretted his plan to use Marquis Muyang's Mansion to hide Yaoji and Mu Lie in the capital. Because this meant that he couldn't do anything to Marquis Muyang's Mansion for the time being. But as soon as he saw the people of Marquis Muyang's Mansion, especially Marquis Muyang himself, some bad memories that he tried hard to forget surged up again, making Mo Xiuyao's mood very bad.
On the day of the new Emperor's ascension, a fire broke out in the palace, almost burning half of the palace. This news quickly spread among the people. People were talking about how the new Emperor was immoral and couldn't bear to inherit the throne, so the heavens punished him and so on. Hearing this, the people in the Prince Ding Mansion laughed secretly. The new Emperor was only a child of six or seven years old. What could they say about him being immoral? But once the comments started, it wasn't so easy to destroy them. Especially when there were people who wanted to add fuel to the fire, the comments spread like wildfire.
The people in the Prince Ding Mansion didn't pay attention to these, because they were all packing up and preparing to leave the capital again to go back to the northwest. Although most of them were born and raised in the Chu capital, living in the northwest for the past few years made them feel a sense of belonging to Glass City. Everyone had joyful smiles on their faces as they packed their luggage and prepared to depart. And in the imperial court, other than Prince Li officially becoming the Regent, the news of the Empress's death and Noble Consort Liu's burial was also announced. And the Empress Dowager, who was supposed to be the Empress Dowager, was exempted from being buried with the Empress Dowager because the Empress Dowager couldn't bear the burden of the previous Emperor's first wife's death. She was temporarily buried in the imperial mausoleum. In the future, when the Empress Dowager passed away, she would be buried in the imperial mausoleum.
Ignoring the turmoil in the capital, Mo Xiuyao and his group left the capital three days later and returned to the northwest. Not only was there a graceful and beautiful middle-aged woman in their carriage, there was also a similarly beautiful and moving young woman and an old man with an extraordinary bearing.
"Tian Xiang." In the carriage, Ye Li reached out to hold Hua Tian Xiang's hand, who was still in shock, and smiled slightly.
Hua Tian Xiang's beautiful face was still filled with shock. She stared blankly at Ye Li for a long while before letting out a soft sigh. "Li 'er … Aunt …" The Empress nodded and tenderly stroked her black hair. She said softly, "Tian Xiang, it's been hard on you these past few years." She was the Duke of Hua's first wife's granddaughter and the Empress's niece. She was the envy of all the noble ladies in the capital. But at the same time, because of this identity, she was still unmarried even though she was already over twenty years old. A normal woman at this age would already be a housewife, a housewife, and a housewife. But she could only hide from attention. For example, instead of praying for her grandmother in the temple, it was more like she was cultivating while wearing her hair.
Hua Tian Xiang shook her head and smiled, "Aunt, what are you talking about? I eat well and wear good clothes. How could I have suffered? But you, Aunt, seeing you is really … "Hua Tian Xiang's eyes reddened. Originally, when she heard the news in Ci Yun Temple, she really thought that her aunt had passed away. But this morning, she was doing her morning ritual in her room as usual, when she was suddenly drugged and knocked out. She didn't expect to see her aunt, who she thought had passed away, and her friend, who she hadn't seen for many years. And they were already on the carriage to the northwest. It was no wonder that she hadn't recovered for a long time.
"Li 'er, Aunt, I …" Looking at the two people in front of her, Hua Tian Xiang still wanted to ask something, but she didn't know where to start.
Ye Li took her hand and smiled, "The Duke of Hua has handed you over to me. In the future, Miss Hua will have to trouble you to go to the northwest and live a hard life."
"It's Grandfather …" Hua Tian Xiang said with some excitement. She suddenly remembered that when her grandfather came to see her a few days ago, he said some strange things. At that time, she didn't think too much about it. So her grandfather had already planned to entrust her to Li Li? The Empress said softly, "Your grandfather is doing it for your own good. Now that the new Emperor has ascended the throne, Prince Li is the regent. A few days ago, Prince Li vaguely mentioned that he wanted to marry you as a concubine. Although father rejected him on the spot, as long as you are still in the boudoir, it will always be … "
Hua Tian Xiang wiped her tears and said, "I know Grandfather is doing it for my own good. But we are all gone … Grandfather, he … "
"Don't worry, the Duke of Hua is a person of virtue and prestige. Mo Jingli has just taken power, so he won't do anything to the Duke of Hua. However, to avoid trouble, you should change your name. And the Empress, uh … Sister Hua as well. "
