Prince Li's temper was not good. This was not a secret among the nobles in the capital. However, if one were to observe carefully, they would discover that His Highness Prince Li, who was supposed to be proud after the wedding, had an even worse temper than before. Especially when he went out early in the morning and heard people talking about Ye Li, his mood should be incomparably good. But he found that when he passed by, people would intentionally or unintentionally look at him strangely, or they would quickly shut up and change the topic to talk about unrelated things. Even when he was drinking tea, he could feel the eyes of everyone in the teahouse secretly looking at him. Something happened to Ye Li, that woman, and the one being laughed at should be Mo Xiuyao! Why did he feel like everyone was laughing at him?
Most of the people in the capital were still kind, so when they saw Mo Jingli appear, even if they knew that they could not offend the Emperor's younger brother, they still gave him a look of disdain. Tsk! What kind of person was he? It was fine if he broke off a girl's engagement for no reason, but he also couldn't bear to see her doing well. Not only did he ruin the girl's reputation, but now he was spreading such vile rumors? If this was a normal girl, wouldn't she have been forced to die? This kind of person, even if he was a relative of the Emperor, would still be called scum!
"Prince ….. Prince ….." The people following Mo Jingli were also frightened by the pressure around their Prince.
"What is going on?!" Mo Jingli gritted his teeth and asked.
Guard A looked around and sadly found that he was the closest to the Prince. The other guards had already moved to the side and said in a trembling voice, "Replying ….. Replying to Prince, everyone is talking about Ye ….. Third Young Miss Ye."
"I know that they are talking about that woman! What does talking about that woman have to do with I?! "They all looked at I like I was scum, did they think that I did not see it? Shouldn't they be mocking that woman and laughing at Mo Xiuyao for being cuckolded? (Do you still know that you are scum?)
"This … Someone said, someone said that Prince, you can't bear to see Third Young Miss Ye and hate that Third Young Miss Ye is about to happily join the Ding Palace and was rude to you at Chu Xiang Pavilion before, so you deliberately spread rumors … Cough cough, to destroy Third Young Miss Ye's … reputation …" Imperial Bodyguard A who intended to use his fastest speed to make things clear had his face flushed red. Before he could finish his words, he looked at his Prince in horror as he crushed the folding fan in his hand into pieces.
"What did you say?!" Mo Jingli's body was emitting waves of Yin energy. Everyone who passed by couldn't help but take a detour.
"Prince … Prince …" It wasn't me who said it, it was all the people in the capital who said it. Guard A said in his heart, feeling wronged. In short, Li Palace's reputation had reached a new low after the Prince seduced his fiancée's younger sister and bought things without paying.
"Li Li, Zheng 'er, come up quickly. There's no one upstairs, let's sit outside. " A clear female voice rescued the almost frozen imperial bodyguard A. When he saw his Prince's gaze quickly turned to the staircase, the imperial bodyguard quickly curled himself into a ball and hid in a safe place. Mu Rongting, wearing a delicate and beautiful red dress, took the lead to walk up to the second floor. She even turned around and waved to her friends behind her. The child who was leading the way in front of her simply wanted to cry. Miss Mu Rongting, it's not that there's no one upstairs. We are here in one of the best teahouses in the capital. It's that everyone was scared away by Prince Li.
"Yi?" When she turned around, Mu Rongting saw Mo Jingli whose face was as black as ink. She couldn't help but look back and consider whether to change to another teahouse. But at this moment, Hua Tian Xiang and the others also walked up. Thus, the group of five girls helplessly stared at each other. Ye Li was even more helpless. She even suspected that she really had some ill-fated relationship with Mo Jingli in her previous life. No matter where she went, it seemed that as long as she went out, she would run into him. Ye Li didn't know. Actually, this wasn't too strange. Because even though the capital was the most prosperous city in the Da Chu State, it wasn't that big compared to the big cities in her memory. And the nobles couldn't go to the same place as the commoners. Basically, they could only go to a few places. So, unless it was someone like Ye Li who didn't go out much, or someone like Mu Rongting who often ran around, they would basically only go to a teahouse where they knew each other.
"Mr. Li …" Mu Rongting looked at Ye Li apologetically. She really didn't think that the newly married Prince Li would come to a teahouse to drink tea alone in the middle of the day instead of accompanying his wife at home.
"It's alright, let's just stay here." Ye Li also knew that she couldn't blame Mu Rongting. Besides, she didn't have any intention of avoiding Mo Jingli. They were all in the same capital. They were all from noble families and were even relatives. Where could she avoid him? Indifferently nodding at Mo Jingli, Ye Li pulled Qin Zheng and Qin Yu Ling to a relatively quiet corner.
Mu Rongting stuck out her tongue. She pulled Hua Tian Xiang and hurriedly followed.
"Sigh, do you think Prince Ding will come or not?" Mu Rongting asked in a low voice. She didn't grow up in the capital so she wasn't familiar with Prince Ding. Hua Tian Xiang was full of confidence. She nodded and said: "Don't worry, my grandfather said that Prince Ding is a pretty good person. Since he received the invitation, he will definitely come. "
Qin Yu Ling said in a low voice: "Then let's leave early. Let's not disturb Mr. Li and Prince Ding's conversation."
Mu Rongting giggled and said: "It's still early. We came out early. Prince Ding definitely hasn't come out yet. It won't be too late for us to change places when he comes. Haha, did you see the expressions of those people downstairs just now? They became very strange when they saw us come in. I was afraid that their eyeballs would fall into their teacups. " Hua Tian Xiang snorted and said: "Those people probably thought that Mr. Li was hiding at home crying. Of course they would be startled when they saw us suddenly appear."
Qin Zheng covered her mouth and laughed: "I've also never seen so many people stunned at the same time. This is the first time in my life that I've been the center of attention."
Ye Li looked at her friends chattering about how they felt when they went out today. She could only shake her head in amusement. In fact, the rumors didn't seem to be as fierce as she had expected. Mo Xiuyao and her uncle must have done something in secret. At the very least, most people looked at her with surprise or sympathy. It wasn't the disdain and contempt that she had thought would appear. It seemed that most people didn't believe that she had been kidnapped.
Ye Li and the others sat in a relatively remote corner, chatting among themselves. Mo Jingli sat alone by the window, drinking tea like it was wine with a calm face. Because he was far away, he couldn't hear what they were talking about. However, he could still feel that they were in a good mood. It seemed that they weren't affected by the rumors at all. Mo Jingli couldn't help but gnash his teeth. It was clearly Ye Li who had gotten into trouble, but Ye Li herself acted as if nothing had happened. Instead, he had to take the blame. However, if he had to rush over and argue with Ye Li, even Mo Jingli felt that he couldn't bring himself to do it. Thus, he could only let the cold wind around him scare away the surrounding guests and continue to drink tea.
