"Li Li, are you still not feeling well … I'll have Zhuo Jing bring a doctor in from outside the city for you to take a look." Looking at Ye Li's haggard appearance compared to yesterday, Mo Xiuyao pulled her into his arms with worry and carefully held her waist. Ye Li smiled faintly and said, "It's nothing. I just didn't sleep well last night."
"As expected, without I to take care of you, Li Li can't sleep well?" Hearing this, Mo Xiuyao instantly became smug. Ignoring Ye Li's thoughts, he said firmly, "I should stay tonight to take care of Li Li. Otherwise, Li Li won't be able to sleep well again. Right now, there is no one to take care of her. How can I be at ease with Li Li alone? "
Ye Li glared helplessly at Mo Xiuyao and then looked faintly at Bai Yuncheng and Sun Furen. Bai Yuncheng and Sun Furen didn't think wrongly. They just thought that Princess Ding was sick and was worried that she would pass her illness on to Prince Ding, so they lived in separate rooms. At the same time, they were surprised that Prince Ding was so attentive and willing to be a servant for Wang Fei. But Bai Yuncheng was worried and Sun Furen was envious.
"Greetings to Wang Fei." The two stood and said in unison.
Ye Li nodded and smiled faintly, "Bai Family Head, Sun Furen, no need to be so courteous."
The two thanked Ye Li. Ye Li said, "I've prepared tea and refreshments in front. Why don't you come over and sit for a while?" The two didn't refuse and respectfully invited Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li to go first.
Actually, after turning a corner, tea and refreshments were placed on the stone table. The host and guests sat down. Sun Furen looked at Ye Li and asked with concern, "Wang Fei's complexion is not good. Are you not feeling well?"
Bai Yuncheng naturally wouldn't let Sun furen be the only one in the limelight. He smiled and said, "This one has a few skilled doctors in my fu. Why don't I send them over for wang fei to use?"
Ye Li smiled faintly and said, "Thank you for your concern. It's probably because you haven't rested well in the Emperor Of Xiling City. It's not a problem." This was not Ye Li's excuse. Other than the slight injuries she suffered when she was pregnant with Mo Xiaobao and when she gave birth to him, her body had always been in excellent condition. Over the past few years, Shen Yang and Doctor Lin had carefully nursed him back to health, and he had already recovered. In this short period of time, his heart was vexed for no reason, but his body really didn't feel any discomfort. Ye Li had always believed that every medicine had a side effect. If she wasn't sick, she naturally wouldn't go see a doctor.
Madam Sun said, "Glass City and the Imperial City are very far apart, and the climate is also quite different. It was normal for the Princess Consort not to be used to it. My residence is quite proficient in the art of nourishing food. When I return, I will order someone to deliver the recipe. Why don't the Princess Consort try it? "Madam Sun said this. Ye Li didn't refuse and only thanked her with a smile. Bai Yuncheng also smiled and said, "My residence's chef is very proficient in Eastern Chu's dishes. The Princess Consort probably isn't used to Xi Ling's food. When I return, I will send someone over for the Princess Consort to order."
"I'm not that weak. How would I dare trouble Master Bai?" Ye Li said.
Bai Yuncheng smiled and said, "To be able to serve the Princess Consort is their fortune."
Ye Li wasn't someone who didn't know how to manage affairs. She accepted the Sun Family's goodwill, so she couldn't ignore the Bai Family. The art of balance was never something that could be done according to one's wishes. She didn't refuse and nodded, saying, "Then I thank Master Bai." Bai Yuncheng hurriedly said that he didn't dare.
Mo Xiuyao held the teacup in one hand and held Ye Li's hand under the table with the other. He frowned slightly at the slight coldness of the touch. Li's body had always been good. Now that her constitution was slightly cold, it was naturally not a good thing. She really should have a good nourishment. Therefore, her expression towards Sun and Bai became more relaxed.
The four of them chatted idly as they drank tea. They were the guests and the host. If one didn't look at the hidden struggle between Bai Yuncheng and Madam Sun. Rather than an open struggle, it was more accurate to say that Bai Yuncheng was unilaterally targeting Madam Sun. Madam Sun was somewhat disinterested in Bai Yuncheng.
Madam Sun understood that no matter how attentive Bai Yuncheng was now, the Bai Family would offend Princess Ding sooner or later. This was something that had been decided from the very beginning of the Bai Family's nature. The Bai Family had been a family of concubines since the founding of Xi Ling. To put it simply, they had climbed up along the belt of their skirts. The Bai Family had almost never produced any amazing big shots, but in the history of the Bai Family, there had been several prime ministers and many senior officials. All of this depended on the status of the Bai Family's daughter in the harem. Therefore, although the Bai Family had always been a prominent family in Xi Ling, the families with real ability and heritage secretly looked down on them.
Now the Bai Family had sought refuge with the Prince Ding Mansion. However, the Bai Family, including Bai Yuncheng, was not a powerful genius. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been casually suppressed by Jhennam Of Gojoseon for so many years. They had a legitimate Empress, but they still couldn't make a comeback. If the Bai Family wanted to regain a high status in the Prince Ding Mansion and restore the glory of the past. They could only continue to move forward along the path that they had taken. And there was no doubt that this would inevitably offend the Prince Ding Mansion and the Xu family. Therefore, Madam Sun didn't feel the need to fight with Bai Yuncheng in front of Prince Ding and Princess Ding. She didn't want the Prince Ding and the Princess to feel that she was aggressive.
But Bai Yuncheng didn't think so. In Bai Yuncheng's opinion, it was unbearable to let Madam Sun, a widow, suppress him in front of Prince Ding. What's more, the hatred between the Sun Family and the Bai Family couldn't be resolved. If the Sun Family was valued, they would definitely take revenge for these years. In this case, it was better for the Bai Family to take the initiative!
Before noon, Bai Yuncheng and Madam Sun consciously got up and left. Before leaving, Madam Sun invited Ye Li to attend an autumn flower party for womenfolk in the capital two days later. Although the Emperor Of Xiling was about to change hands, the dignitaries in the imperial city didn't cower at home because of this. Instead, they gathered more frequently. The leaders and mistresses of each family gathered together to inquire about the plans and intentions of other families. Families with good relationships by marriage took the opportunity to discuss their own retreat plans and so on. All of these needed to be carried out through various banquets. After all, although the Emperor Of Xiling was about to move south, most of the power in Xiling City was still in the hands of the Emperor Of Xiling. Especially those who had disloyalty and other plans, few dared to visit Prince Ding openly like the Bai Family and the Sun Family.
Ye Li had a good impression of this generous and free Madam Sun. She also understood that the intention of holding the so-called autumn flower party at this time was naturally not just to enjoy the flowers. After all, there were no flowers to enjoy in autumn in Xiling. After thinking about it, she agreed. Madam Sun also left happily.
When Bai Yuncheng heard this, he secretly planned to implement the plan as soon as possible.
When Bai Yuncheng returned to the mansion, Madam Bai, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately greeted him and asked with concern, "Master, have you seen Prince Ding and Princess Ding?"
Bai Yuncheng nodded. Seeing this, Madam Bai showed some joy and smiled, "Then the people we sent over …" Bai Yuncheng snorted and said coldly, "A bunch of trash! I'm afraid it bodes ill rather than well. " Hearing this, Madam Bai's heart trembled. It should be known that the few people who were sent over a few days ago were not really servants. Among them, there were three Bai family's illegitimate sons and daughters. "This … Prince Ding is actually so ruthless. But these few days, there are also many families sending people over. Why is it only our family …" Madam Bai recovered from her shock after being shocked. Although the few people sent over were the children of the Bai Family, they were not her biological children. Naturally, she didn't feel sorry for them. But she was more worried about whether Prince Ding was dissatisfied with the Bai Family.
