The Emperor Of Xiling smiled helplessly and said, "Never mind. Compared to those people … at least she didn't suffer much. Tell the Ministry of Rites to prepare the princess's funeral as soon as possible. Let's head to An City in advance. " Whether it was because he felt that he had failed and couldn't face it, or because he was afraid of the Mohist army and Prince Ding, the Emperor Of Xiling didn't have the slightest bit of fear towards the Imperial City anymore.
"This old servant obeys. Your Majesty, news just came from outside the palace. The concubine sons of Prince Rui in Zhennan Palace are all dead. "After thinking for a while, the chamberlain felt that he should tell the Emperor some good news. The Emperor Of Xiling opened his eyes, "Oh? Really? "
"It's absolutely true. I'm afraid this matter is related to the South Vanquishing King. Prince Ding destroyed Jhennan Of Gojoseon and Prince Rui's Mansion in a fit of anger. Not a single one of them was left alive … "At this point, the old chamberlain couldn't help but shiver.
The Emperor Of Xiling was stunned for a while before he chuckled and said, "Lei Zhenting … how could he have foreseen this day? Forget it, at least … Lei Zhenting's forces were all destroyed by Mo Xiuyao. Let's leave the Imperial City and head to An City as soon as possible. Tell them not to provoke this fiend anymore. "
"This old servant obeys."
When Ye Li woke up, it was already three days later. Although three days wasn't a long time, the Prince Ding Mansion's efficiency had always been high. Therefore, in these three days, the remaining forces in and out of the Imperial City had all been wiped out by Qin Feng, Feng Zhiyao, and the others. As for how many people's families and businesses had been destroyed and how many people's heads had fallen, it wasn't something that ordinary people could know. But even so, many people noticed that many familiar faces in the Imperial City had disappeared overnight. It was not easy to live peacefully in this chaotic world. Even if they had any doubts, they would quietly suppress them to the bottom of their hearts.
"Fourth Brother … Fourth Brother?!" Ye Li suddenly opened her eyes and grabbed the wrist of the person in front of her. When she saw the person sitting by the bed clearly, she was slightly startled. "Eldest Aunt …"
It was First Madam of the Xu family who was sitting by the bed. She was holding a warm handkerchief in her hand and was about to wipe her sweat when Ye Li suddenly grabbed it. She was also shocked. "Li 'er, you're finally awake?" Seeing that she had woken up, First Madam of the Xu family was also delighted, and a relieved smile appeared on her gentle and loving face.
She had traveled thousands of miles to the West-Hill for her son. Other than the time when she traveled from Yunzhou to Li City, this was the first time Madam Xu had traveled so far in her life. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at Glass City, his son and niece were both unconscious on the bed. If it weren't for Feng Zhiyao, who went to greet them, telling them to take care of themselves, Madam Xu would have fainted from fright.
"Eldest Aunt …" Having just woken up, Ye Li's mind was in a mess for a moment. She suddenly remembered the scene before she fainted and couldn't help but sit up. "Eldest Aunt, Fourth Brother …" Madam Xu hurriedly held her down and said, "It's okay, your Fourth Brother is fine. Why are you so careless … "
"I'm sorry … Eldest Aunt, Fourth Brother did it because of me …" Thinking of how Fourth Brother threw himself in front of her and how the sword pierced through her chest, Ye Li's face turned pale. Fourth Brother was a weak scholar who didn't even have the strength to truss a chicken. Ye Li didn't dare to imagine how bad the situation was.
Thinking of her son who was still lying motionless on the bed, Madam Xu's eyes couldn't help but redden. Seeing her son wrapped in a thick white gauze and his pale face, how could Madam Xu, as a mother, not be heartbroken? But how could this kind of thing be blamed on Ye Li? How could she, as a mother, not know her son's nature? Even if it wasn't for Ye Li, Xu Qingbai would still throw himself at any one of the brothers. It would be strange if her son didn't block that sword. Madam Xu patted the back of Ye Li's hand and said gently, "Silly child, your Fourth Brother is fine. Why are you crying? I'm talking about you. Didn't you learn some medical skills from Doctor Lin? How come you don't even know that you're not feeling well? "
Ye Li was stunned. Madam Xu shook her head with a smile and said, "Silly child, you're already three months pregnant. You even gave birth to a child. How could you not pay attention at all?"
This time, Ye Li was completely stunned. Even when Madam Xu raised her hand to wipe her tears, she didn't come back to her senses. After a long while, she lowered her head and reached out to touch her flat stomach. Then she put her left hand on her right hand's pulse and said in a panic, "I … I can't feel it. What's wrong with the child?" Although Ye Li had learned some medical skills from Doctor Lin, most of them were about pharmacology and poisons. And medical skills were obviously not a subject that could be understood by analogy. It was difficult for a person who had studied medicine for less than half a year to clearly distinguish between a slippery pulse and pregnancy. Not to mention, Ye Li was a little panicked at this moment. People like Mo Xiuyao couldn't even feel a pulse in a panic, let alone diagnose it.
Madam Xu comforted her with a smile, "It's okay. The child is fine. It's just that you're too careless. If something happens, it won't be just your problem. "
Ye Li looked down at her stomach in a daze. This time, she was indeed careless. Although she had experienced it once before, this time, except for the ups and downs of her mood, the child had been very well-behaved. Basically, it didn't cause her any physical discomfort. And there was a two-day period every month. Because of the great loss when she gave birth to Mo and Xiaobao, although she carefully recuperated, there were always times when it wasn't accurate. Therefore, she only thought that it was because of the soil and water in West-Hill that she was temporarily disrupted. Also, there hadn't been any news in the past few years. Ye Li almost habitually stopped thinking about it.
"Anyway, it's good that you're awake. I haven't sent someone to inform Prince Ding yet. "Madam Xu smiled.
"Ye Li!" Before she finished speaking, Mo Xiuyao's voice came from outside the door. Mo Xiuyao's white figure swept into the room, startling Madam Xu. Obviously, he didn't know who reported it, so he directly used his lightness skill to run over.
"Xiuyao …" Ye Li looked up at the white-haired man in front of her. Although he didn't look bad, Ye Li could feel his tension and fatigue. The white figure flashed, and Ye Li was pulled into a cool embrace. Mo Xiuyao buried his head in her shoulder, deeply inhaling the familiar fragrance. His voice was low and hoarse. "Ye Li … You're finally awake …"
Ye Li's heart ached inexplicably. She raised her hand to wrap around his thin waist and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry to have made you worry."
Not far away, Madam Xu looked at the young couple in front of her with a gratified smile. She quietly retreated, leaving space for the young couple to talk.
