Having said what needed to be said, Mo Xiuyao pulled Ye Li up, saying to Tan Jizhi, "Right, if Young Master Tan has nothing to do, it's best that you don't wander around the city. Right now, it's not just Ren Qining in Glass City. Mo Jingli, Noble Consort Liu and Lei Zhenting are all in Glass City. " Lei Zhenting didn't have much enmity with Tan Jizhi, but it was different for Mo Jingli and Noble Consort Liu. No matter how weak Mo Jingli was, if he wanted to kill the current Tan Jizhi, it would still be a piece of cake. "Also, the Da Chu State has already moved south of the Cloud Mist River. The Da Chu State … is finished. Young Master Tan's wish is about to be fulfilled. "
"The Da Chu State moved south? Then the Chu capital … "Tan Jizhi was shocked.
Mo Xiuyao said, "The Da Chu State's Chu capital and the Western Tomb's Imperial City are now I's."
Tan Jizhi was silent. In these short two years, he had missed too much. Right now, what he needed to do the most was to understand the current situation and what exactly had happened in these two years. Mo Xiuyao no longer paid any attention to Tan Jizhi, leaving the dungeon side by side with Ye Li in a good mood.
In the next few days, the Prince Ding Mansion seemed to have quietened down. However, the people outside the Prince Ding Mansion were still busy. Someone had leaked the news that the Lord of Infinite Boundless Mountain had come to Glass City. Within a few days, Mo Jingli, Ren Qining and the others had all gone to pay their respects. Even the unrelated Yelu Ye and Yelu Hong had gone to join in on the fun. Although the people of Infinite Boundless Mountain claimed to have chosen their Lord on behalf of the heavens, they still knew their limits at the end of the day. The Northern Tribes of the Barbarians beyond the Great Wall was definitely not within their scope of choice. And the most active of all was naturally Mo Jingli.
In the Prince Ding Mansion, Ye Ying sat opposite Ye Li, sobbing non-stop. Ye Li didn't try to persuade her. She just sat there and waited for her to finish crying. After a long time, Ye Ying finally stopped. She looked at Ye Li with tears in her eyes and said, "Third Sister, I regret it so much. Why did I marry him? Back then, he clearly said that he would treat me well for the rest of my life. But now, now … "
Ye Li raised her eyebrows and asked softly, "What happened? Tell me properly. What's the use of crying? "
Ye Ying wiped her tears bitterly and nodded, "Third Sister, you're right. I won't cry … It's not worth crying for that bastard. I must have been blind to have taken a fancy to him back then. No wonder … No wonder Third Sister didn't take a fancy to him back then. Prince Ding is really good to you. "Speaking of this, Ye Ying couldn't help but feel a little jealous. Back then, in the Chu capital, who didn't pity the Ye family's Third Miss not only lost the position of Princess Li, but also married a disfigured good-for-nothing in a wheelchair. But now, although Prince Ding had a head of white hair, how many men in the world could compare to his appearance and bearing? Not to mention his devotion to Ye Li, which was the object of envy of all the women in the world.
Qing Shuang, who was standing behind Ye Li, secretly pursed her lips. If this Fourth Miss had married Prince Ding back then, she would have cried until she was half dead. But now, she was jealous of their Princess Consort?
Ye Li didn't care about her jealous words and asked faintly, "What happened?"
Ye Ying sobbed as she described how Mo Jingli ran to Dongfang You and Dongfang Hui every day to curry favor. He even discussed with his confidants that if Dongfang You was willing to marry, they would remove her position as Princess Consort. The more she spoke, the sadder she became. Before she finished, Ye Ying cried again. Looking at Ye Ying, who was crying like a bag, Ye Li could only sigh helplessly. For the first time, she doubted whether her idea of letting Ye Ying be Mo Jingli's spy was reliable. Or should she let Yaoji think of more ways? But thinking about it again, Qin Feng was not young anymore. Although she didn't know whether their relationship had progressed, it wasn't good to let Yaoji stay in the Muyang Marquis' Residence.
"Third Sister, what should I do?" Ye Ying asked with red eyes. Ye Ying was not a fool. If Mo Jingli had thought of her as Princess Ding's sister in the past. Compared to the coveted power of Infinite Boundless Mountain, it was not enough. If Infinite Boundless Mountain's Dongfang You was really willing to marry Mo Jingli, Mo Jingli would definitely remove her without hesitation. She was not young anymore, and she had fallen out with her mother because of Ye Yue. Other than Mo Jingli, she had no one else to rely on. Moreover, although Ye Ying was a little selfish, she still couldn't do something like Noble Consort Liu.
Ye Li thought for a while and comforted her, "Don't worry, even if Mo Jingli really marries Dongfang You. I can at least guarantee that you won't be demoted to a side consort. "
Ye Ying didn't believe it. How could a girl from Infinite Boundless Mountain be willing to be a side consort? It might be possible to be Mo Xiuyao's side consort, because Ye Li's backing was also very strong. The Xu family definitely held an important position in the Prince Ding Mansion now. But she couldn't. She was alone in Jiangnan with no one to rely on.
Ye Li smiled faintly, "Why would I lie to you? Even if we weren't close, outsiders still know that you are my sister. If you were demoted to a side consort, would I have a lot of face? If it really doesn't work, I'll let Mo Jingli choose two main consorts, both of them are of the same age. "
"But … Can't we …" Ye Ying said unwillingly.
Ye Li smiled, "Can't let Dongfang You marry Mo Jingli? It's not impossible. But do you think that Mo Jingli will vent his anger on you, or even kill you in a place that we don't even know about? " Ye Ying shuddered. After following Mo Jingli for so many years, Ye Ying knew how vicious Mo Jingli was. Thinking about how Ye Yue had been burned to death, Ye Ying's expression turned even uglier.
It had to be said that Mo Jingli had taken the blame for Ye Yue's death. At least, whether it was the Ye family or Ye Ying, they all thought that Mo Jingli was responsible for Ye Yue's death.
"We are sisters, so you have two choices. Stay in Glass City and cut off all ties with Mo Jingli. You are the daughter of the Ye family after all, and if you return to the Ye family, Father and Grandmother won't leave you alone. From then on, you can live an ordinary life. The second choice is to follow Mo Jingli back to Jiangnan. The only thing I can do is to hold on to the position of your Princess Consort. As for what happens in the future … that's up to you. "
"I …" Ye Ying's expression was conflicted. After a while, she shook her head, "No, I want to go back. I can't go back to the Ye family. I am Princess Consort Li. And my child … "
Ye Li's eyes flashed, "I will help you find your child. Once I have news, I will send someone to inform you."
"Third Sister, you … Why are you so good to me?" Ye Ying was not stupid. She would not forget that her relationship with Ye Li was not good in the past. Ye Li might help her with some trivial matters, but these matters obviously required more effort. Ye Li still helped her without hesitation. She could not help but suspect Ye Li's motives.
Ye Li did not intend to use any pleasantries to brush her off. She smiled faintly, "It's nothing much. If Mo Jingli really marries Dongfang You, it will be very dangerous for the Prince Ding Mansion. As long as you occasionally give me some news, it will be fine. Don't worry, I won't ask you to do anything dangerous. I can also promise you that if you encounter any danger in the future, I can guarantee that you will be able to escape unscathed. "
