Ye Yue's face flashed with embarrassment. That's right, she followed Wang Shi to Li City on purpose. She also purposely let Mo Jingli know that she had a trump card in her hand and something very important to him. What was wrong with that? How much had she suffered in hiding for so many years? She was originally an imperial concubine. She also had a son of the late emperor. Her son was much smarter than the useless Mo Suyun in Da Chu State. As long as she operated well, she might be able to become the Empress Dowager. Why did she have to hide her identity and live the rest of her life in fear?
"Father, as long as we go to Jiang Nan. Mo Jingli promised me to help my son ascend the throne. At that time, you will be the real father-in-law of the Emperor. The Ye family will prosper from then on. "Ye Yue looked at Ye Wenhua and said seriously.
However, Ye Wenhua was not as easy to persuade as she thought. "I believe that Li 'er's child will ascend to the throne in the future. If you stay in Glass City, at least you can let your brother marry and have children safely. You can leave a descendant for the Ye family." Ye Wenhua now understood that Ye Rong had been spoiled by Old Madame Ye and Ye Wangshi. Now, he only hoped that Ye Rong's son could be raised well and not end the bloodline of the Ye family. Hearing Ye Wenhua's words, Ye Yue's eyes flashed with a trace of bitterness, "In father's eyes, I am not as good as third sister?" If she was not forced by the Empress Dowager and had to hide her identity. Why would she be in such dire straits now?
Ye Wenhua shook his head and said, "You are different from Ye Li." Ye Yue was very smart. She might even be smarter than Ye Li. But she was different from Ye Li. She should not be compared to Ye Li. If they were both in the palace, Ye Wenhua believed that Ye Li might not be able to win against Ye Yue. However, from the very beginning, Ye Li's gaze did not stop at the back of the palace. She had courage and ability that did not lose out to a man. Therefore, she could assist Prince Ding in governing a region. She could mount a horse and command thousands of soldiers and horses. Placing such a woman in the inner court of the palace would only trample on her ability. There were many times when Ye Wenhua regretted that Ye Li was not a son. If she were a boy, she would be able to protect the Ye family for at least three generations no matter what the world was like.
Ye Li understood what Ye Wenhua meant. She was proud of her intelligence, but she also knew that she couldn't be like Ye Li. They were different from the start.
"We are indeed different. Third Sister would not care about the rise and fall of the Ye family. With the support of the Xu family, whether the Ye family was good or bad, it would not affect her. But I'm different. Father, I'll only be well if the Ye family is well. Therefore, Yue 'er will never abandon the Ye family, "Ye Yue said softly. Ye Wenhua didn't have any reaction, but Old Madame Ye showed her approval. Ye Li's indifference towards the Ye family was obvious to anyone with a discerning eye. Even if Ye Li became the mother of the country in the future, only the Xu family would be able to benefit from it, not the Ye family. Among all the granddaughters, Old Madame Ye loved Ye Yue the most. Hearing what she said, she naturally felt that it was very reasonable. She looked at Ye Wenhua and wanted to persuade him.
Ye Wenhua waved his hand and said tiredly, "Mother, you don't have to say anymore. The Ye family can't leave Glass City. "
Old Madame Ye frowned and said, "What are you talking about? Ye Li doesn't care about our family at all. Are you going to stick to her? "Old Madame Ye was very dissatisfied with this granddaughter who didn't give her face.
Ye Wenhua shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly. His mother … was old. She was not as smart as she was when she was young. The Ye family came to Glass City from afar and then left with Mo Jingli's family. Even if the Prince Ding Mansion didn't have Ye Yue, it was impossible for them not to investigate, let alone Ye Yue. With this investigation, how could they leave for the Ye family? He looked at Ye Yue and said, "Since you have decided to leave with Prince Li, you can leave now."
"Father …" Ye Yue didn't expect Ye Wenhua to be so stubborn and heartless.
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Old Madame Ye was furious, "Yue 'er is my granddaughter. If you want to chase her away, why don't you chase me away too?" Old Madame Ye had long hated her days in Glass City. She wanted to go to Jiangnan. In Jiangnan, she would be the Princess Consort's grandmother again. She would be the noble Old Madame Ye in Chu Capital.
"Old Madame, Old Madame," the servant outside hurried in and reported, "Prince Ding and Princess Ding are here."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. Ye Yue's face was pale. Back then, she tried to kill Ye Li. Although she was forced to do it, it couldn't change the fact. Although Ye Yue had been living incognito all these years, she had heard many rumors. Mo Xiuyao's cold-bloodedness was well-known to her. How could she not be shocked when she heard that Mo Xiuyao was here?
Ye Wenhua was also shocked, but he calmed down quickly. He stood up and said, "Got it. I will go out and welcome Prince Ding and Princess Consort."
"No … no need …" The servant outside the door said timidly, "Prince Ding and Princess Consort … have already come in."
The door was suddenly opened from the outside. Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li walked in hand in hand. Standing outside the door, they could clearly see everyone in the study. Because of the backlight, Ye Yue could only see the two figures in white walking in hand in hand. The sunlight formed a circle of light behind them. It was as if the gods had descended. For a moment, she couldn't see their expressions clearly.
Seeing the two getting closer, Ye Yue couldn't help but take a step back. Looking around, she realized in despair that there was no place for her to hide except for the door in the study. She had to face Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li.
Stepping into the study, the study, which was not very spacious, suddenly became a little crowded. Mo Xiuyao frowned with dissatisfaction. He pulled Ye Li to the soft couch in front and sat down. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's going on? Why is the study so lively? "
Ye Wangshi tried to squeeze out a smile. She smiled apologetically, "No … nothing. We are talking to Master. His Highness and Her Highness are here. Why haven't you left yet? "
Ye Yue lowered her head. She quickly bowed and walked out of the door.
Just as she was about to step out of the study, Ye Li's faint laughter came from behind, "Second sister, we haven't seen each other for many years. Are you leaving like this?"
