But Mu Yang did not expect that the courageous girl with high martial arts skills was actually his cousin. Mu Yang, who had no sisters or brothers since childhood, could not help but feel a little regretful. But since the girl was taken care of by the Prince Ding Mansion, they did not need to copy her heart. It was better not to see her.
Xu Qingchen took Yun Ge back to the small courtyard and met Ye Li's smiling eyes. Ye Li did not ask much and took Yun Ge back to the room to pack up and prepare to leave Jiangnan.
That night, a group of people left Nanjing and took a boat to the north. The people in Nanjing were excited because of the little Emperor's critical illness. Most people did not even know that Princess Ding and Master Qingchen had come and left, taking away their little Emperor.
The ship sailed steadily on the water. On the deck, Xu Qingchen and Ye Li sat opposite each other, admiring the waves that were never seen before. In the cabin, Yun Ge was taking care of Mo Suyun, who had been unconscious since he boarded the boat.
Xu Qingchen drank tea leisurely and looked at Ye Li opposite him and said, "Is it okay to leave Dongfang You's matter to Qin Feng?" Ye Li looked at Xu Qingchen jokingly and said, "It seems that Big Brother was also scared by Dongfang You? Don't worry, Qin Feng is just as calm. Don't worry, there won't be any problems. "As for how Qin Feng would deal with Dongfang You, no one cared. As long as it was confirmed that Dongfang You was dead.
"Li 'er came to Jiangnan this time and did a lot of things." Xu Qingchen smiled faintly. Although she came to save Xu Qingchen, the extra gains were quite considerable. Ye Ying's last attack was enough to make Mo Jingli unable to leave Nanjing for a month or two. He also had to deal with the problems after Mo Suyun's departure and plan how to ascend the throne. It would be difficult for the Da Chu State to send troops in a short time. Even if Mo Jingli agreed to form an alliance with the Northern Tribes of Xiling, he would have to wait until next year to go to the north personally.
Ye Li smiled faintly and said, "By then, between the Northern Tribes and the Western Hill, one side should have already retreated. At that time, when Mo Jingli sends out his troops, the pressure on the Mohist army will be less. "
Xu Qingchen nodded and said, "Li 'er has thought it through very thoroughly. Besides … Li' er has also planted a few spies in his army. When the time comes, how much strength Mo Jingli's army can really contribute is probably still unknown."
"Big Brother, you flatter me." Ye Li covered her mouth and laughed. She looked back at the girl who was busy in the half-open cabin and asked, "What do you plan to do, Brother Yunge? Originally, if Wuyou was still in Glass City, Yun Ge could accompany Wuyou. However, Wuyou had gone to West-Hill. Why don't Big Brother send her to the Prince Ding Mansion so that she could accompany Madam Yang? Madam Yang's knowledge and talent are all first-class. She can also be taught? "Xu Qingchen glanced at her lightly and said," There's no need. Mother and Second Aunt can also teach her. Besides, Second Uncle's mansion is also close to our family. Sister-in-law can also accompany her. "
Ye Li blinked and smiled, "I'm afraid Zheng 'er can't wait to be surrounded by the children all day long. How can she have the time? The same goes for Eldest Aunt and Second Aunt. Our two children are still in the Xu family. "It was very difficult to take care of two children who were not even one year old yet.
"I have my own arrangements." Xu Qingchen said.
Ye Li nodded and smiled, "Alright then. Anyway, Yunge is Big Brother's savior. Big Brother has the final say on how to settle her."
Xu Qingchen only pretended not to hear the teasing in his cousin's words. He calmly held the teacup and started to enjoy the scenery on the sea. Because they were worried that they would be intercepted by Zhennan Palace midway, they did not take the canal. They went directly to the estuary and went north after entering the sea. The Xiling Army was not good at water battles.
After sailing for more than ten days, they disembarked at a port not far from the original Chu capital, Changxing City. Xu Qingchen brought Yunge and Mo Suyun along the way slowly and prepared to return to Glass City. Ye Li got on a fast horse the moment she disembarked and brought the people to the battlefield.
It had been nearly two months since Ye Li went to Jiangnan Road. At this time, the northern part of the country was already filled with cold wind and snow.
Lei Zhenting had already brought close to a million troops to the border with the Mohist army. This time, not only was Lei Zhenting personally leading the troops, Lei Tengfeng was also coming along. It was obvious that Lei Zhenting wanted to wipe out the Mohist army in one fell swoop. This was because he knew that if he missed this opportunity, Lei Zhenting would not have another chance to defeat the Prince Ding Mansion and the Mohist army in his lifetime. The three nation alliance had a high chance of winning. Unfortunately, they did not start the battle properly. Before they even started, Mo Jingli had already dropped the ball. Lei Zhenting could only curse Mo Jingli in his heart. There was nothing he could do.
Although they could not wait for the Da Chu State's army to arrive, Xiling and Beirong had close to two million troops. More importantly, these two countries were in the north and south, sandwiching the Mohist army in the middle. This caused the Mohist army to be attacked from both front and rear. If one only looked at the geography, they were in a much better position than the Northern Alliance.
At this time, Mo Xiuyao had already pushed from the border not far from the Northern Tribes army to a large citadel in the north of Da Chu State. The citadel was less than a hundred li away from Spirit Vulture Mountain. It was not far from Feihong Pass and was not far from Lei Zhenting's army. It was also a path that the Northern Tribes had to pass through if they wanted to go south from the northwest. Now that the war was about to begin, Mo Xiuyao, as the highest commander of the Mohist army, naturally could not charge into the battlefield like before. He needed to control both the Xiling and Northern Tribes battlefields at the same time. He could only silently retreat from the frontlines.
When Ye Li arrived at the citadel, she did not inform anyone. She directly went to Mo Xiuyao's temporary residence in the citadel. These areas that were reclaimed by the Mohist army had slowly returned to normal over the past half a year. The best governor's residence in the citadel was still reserved for the citadel's officials. Therefore, Mo Xiuyao could only take his subordinates and squeeze into the commander's residence. Fortunately, most of the Mohist army's generals were fighting on the frontlines. Only Feng Zhiyao, Marquis Nan, and a few others were by Mo Xiuyao's side. Even Fu Zhao had personally gone out to lead the troops. The average-sized commander's residence did not seem crowded at all.
When Ye Li arrived at the commander's residence, the guard at the door jumped in fright. When he recovered, he hurriedly came forward to greet Wang Fei and invite her in.
Ye Li did not mind the guard's slight loss of composure. She asked with a smile, "Is the Prince in the residence?"
The guard nodded and said, "Wang Fei, the Prince, Feng Zhiyao, and Marquis Nan are all present."
When she entered the residence, she found out that Mo Xiuyao and the others were discussing in the study. Ye Li stood at the door and hesitated. Just as she was about to leave, the people inside discovered her presence. The door to the study was pulled open from the inside. Mo Xiuyao stood at the door and looked at her with a smile. He said, "Li Li, why aren't you coming in?" Ye Li looked in puzzlement inside. "Aren't you discussing matters?"
Mo Xiuyao grabbed her hand and pulled her inside. "It's nothing important. Also, is there anything in the wang residence that you cannot hear?"
