Mo Xiuyao smiled lazily and said, "I am deep in Xi Ling, and Lei Zhenting is also deep in Da Chu State. How can it be so easy to send reinforcements back? Even if the soldiers of Da Chu State are all idiots, there are still millions of idiots, right? Furthermore … I only plan to bring four hundred thousand men to battle, leaving only four hundred thousand men in the northwest. There are still four hundred thousand men … waiting for Lei Zhenting at the border. When he breaks through the blockade, if I still can't pull down the Emperor Of Xiling's city, I'll let him kick my head around like a ball! "
Hearing this, even Xu Qingchen couldn't help but suck in a breath. Even though Xu Qingchen didn't know much about war, he still felt that a mere four hundred thousand men wanted to fight their way from the border to the Emperor Of Xiling's city. Mo Xiuyao pretended not to see Xu Qingchen, Xu Qingchen, and Xu Hongyu's worries. He smiled and said, "This time … I'm afraid it will take a long time. I'll have to trouble Big Brother and Uncle to guard the northwest. " Xu Qingchen's mind flashed. He said in a low voice, "You're saying that someone might take the opportunity to attack the northwest?"
"Mm … it's very possible." Mo Xiuyao smiled and said, "If Lei Zhenting can't break through the blockade in a short period of time, it's very likely that he'll turn to the northwest. And I … it's very likely that I won't be able to come back in time to help. So … "Xu Qingchen's expression suddenly became exceptionally gloomy." This one thinks that the Prince knows that this one is powerless. "
Mo Xiuyao waved his hand and smiled cheerfully. "Scholars are better when they're ruthless. I have confidence in Young Master Qingchen. Young Master Qingchen definitely has the ability to plan behind curtains and determine victory from a thousand miles away. This prince has entrusted the entire family to Big Brother. Does Big Brother want to see your sister and brother-in-law suffer a crushing defeat and wander the world without a home to return to? "
"Mo Xiuyao …" Young Master Qing Chen's usual elegant smile disappeared once again. He stared calmly at Mo Xiuyao, but under that calmness, one could faintly see a shocking raging storm. Mo Xiuyao also knew that he couldn't really provoke the other party, so he said seriously, "Big Brother, it's not that I want to take a risk, it's just that the current situation is such that we have no choice. Big Brother, please forgive me. "
Xu Qingchen snorted unhappily and said to Ye Li, "Li 'er, are you really not going to change your Mr. Right?"
Ye Li smiled, not helping either side. Mo Xiuyao pulled Ye Li into his arms and glanced at Xu Qingchen unhappily. "Young Master Qingchen, it's better to tear down ten temples than to tear down a marriage. I and Miss Li are deeply in love. Your words are not befitting of a gentleman. " In an instant, Mo Xiuyao threw his guilt to the back of his mind. He glared at Young Master Qingchen with hatred in his heart. You want to steal I's Miss Li? Die of exhaustion!
Idiot, this Young Master won't bicker with you! Young Master Qingchen resisted the urge to roll his eyes.
"Princess Consort, the two Madams Xu and Young Madams Xu request an audience." In the study, the four people were discussing the preparations for the deployment of troops when Qin Feng reported from outside the door. Ye Li was startled. "Eldest Aunt and Second Aunt?" The two Madams Xu knew that Ye Li was different from them, who only guarded a small space in the back courtyard. Usually, she was busy with important matters, so it was very easy for them to come to Ye Li. Even if they came to the Prince Ding Mansion to visit the Empress and Hua Tianxiang, or occasionally to look for Xu Qingchen who refused to go home, the guards would directly invite them in. Today, they came to request an audience so solemnly, it must be something important.
Ye Li blinked and looked at Xu Qingchen and Xu Hongyu who were sitting to the side. Xu Hongyu smiled faintly and said, "It's not a big matter, Li 'er can go see them." Ye Li raised her eyebrows and looked at Xu Qingchen in confusion. Xu Qingchen's expression was calm and at ease. When she met Ye Li's questioning gaze, she coughed softly and said in a low voice, "It's about your Third Brother."
Third Brother? Ye Li blinked her eyes and came to a realization. This time, Xu Qingfeng was going to go to war with them. At this time, the two Madams came to her for Xu Qingfeng. It was self-evident what it was about. Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, Ye Li shook her head and asked, "Isn't Third Brother free these days? He didn't come home? "
Xu Qingchen smiled and said, "He went back the day before, but disappeared again after showing his face. I heard that he entered the Prince Ding Mansion early this morning. "
Ye Li looked at Qin Feng who was at the door. Qin Feng lowered his head and coughed softly. He smiled and said, "This morning, Third Young Master Xu did come to the Prince's Mansion. He sparred with someone in the Martial Arts Hall for a while, then went to the library and hasn't come out since." It was said that the young masters of the Xu family were obsessed with hiding from the two Young Masters. Not to mention the Third Young Master who was holed up in the military camp all day and didn't dare to come out, there was also the Fourth and Fifth Young Masters who went to the north and rarely came back. Even the most elegant and refined Young Master Qingchen would rather stay in the Prince's Mansion's study for half a month than return to the mansion. Qin Feng, a bachelor who dreamed of having a wife and children, couldn't understand. Second Young Master Xu got married early, and didn't they live a happy life? Did they have to be chased all over the sky? They really didn't know how to appreciate their good fortune. How could the old bachelors in the Mohist army who couldn't find a wife endure this?
Helplessly shaking her head, Ye Li stood up and said, "I'm going to see my two aunts. Qin Feng, invite Third Young Master Xu along. "
"This subordinate obeys." Qin Feng said in a clear voice. His half-closed eyes flashed with the light of watching a good show. It was said that Third Young Master Xu had become more and more difficult to catch in the past two years. At least, the Xu family couldn't catch him. However, this wasn't difficult for Qin Feng at all. After all, Third Young Master Xu was taught by him.
In a pavilion near the water, a dark green lake brought some coolness and comfort to the midsummer June. Second Madame Xu sat by the bed with an ugly expression. Beside her, Eldest Madame Xu and Qin Zheng were comforting her in soft voices. However, Second Madame Xu, who was infuriated by her son, wasn't so easy to appease. Although she couldn't get angry in front of her sister-in-law and daughter-in-law, her face was still gloomy.
"Second Aunt, what's the matter? Who made you angry? "Ye Li walked in slowly and said softly with a smile.
"Who else could it be? The only one who can make me angry now is that unfilial son!" Second Madame Xu said angrily as she tugged at her handkerchief. Ye Li walked to her side and said with a smile, "Second Aunt, are you talking about Third Brother? Now that he's in my manor, I'll have someone capture him and give him a good beating to vent Second Aunt's anger! "
Second Madame Xu sighed and pulled Ye Li to sit down. She said, "What's the use of teaching him a lesson? That brat … his father has taught him a lesson so many times. Doesn't he still make me angry every day? Li 'er, tell me … I just want him to find a girl to marry. Do you think the girl will eat him up? "
Hearing Second Madame Xu's words, Ye Li couldn't help but think of what Eldest Madame Xu said last year. It was true that the five young masters of the Xu family were all outstanding. However, other than Second Brother, none of them were easy to deal with. Eldest Madame Xu smiled and patted the back of her sister-in-law's hand. She said with a smile, "In any case, Ze 'er is obedient and Rui' er is smart and cute. If they catch up to the three of us, won't you be worried to death? "
Hearing Eldest Madame Xu's words, Second Madame Xu looked at the quiet and gentle Qin Zheng and felt comforted. In any case, she still had an obedient son, a virtuous and dignified daughter-in-law, and a smart and clever grandson. Thinking of her three sisters-in-law, she was worried.
