Mo Jingli wasn't in the mood to pay attention to their thoughts. He threw the urgent report on the ground and said, "Take a look!"
Old Marquis Muyang, who was standing at the front, bent down to pick it up. His expression immediately changed as he said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid we've really been tricked by Yun Ting. Princess Ding isn't even in the Mohist army." Two days ago, they sent someone to investigate and the report they got back was that Princess Ding was in the army. Now that they thought about it, it was probably just Yun Ting's trick. Princess Ding wasn't even in Cold Valley Pass from the beginning.
"Ye Li! Ye Li! "Mo Jingli gnashed his teeth in anger," If that's the case, don't blame I for being ruthless! "Mo Jingli was so angry that he even forgot to call himself the Emperor.
"Pass down my order, exterminate Yun Ting's army immediately!" Mo Jingli said sternly.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Looking at Mo Jingli's ferocious expression, the generals didn't dare to say more and just accepted the order in a low voice.
A guard hurried to Mo Jingli with a letter and presented it with both hands. Mo Jingli opened the letter and glanced at the people below coldly. Finally, his gaze fell on Old Marquis Muyang's outstretched hand. He said indifferently, "Marquis Muyang, stay here. The rest of you can leave." Everyone looked at Old Marquis Muyang sympathetically and left one after another.
Mo Jingli held the letter in his hand and looked at Old Marquis Muyang coldly, "Old Marquis Mu, do you know what you wrote in this letter?" Old Marquis Muyang's heart tightened. He knew it was probably related to him. He thought for a while and asked carefully, "Your Majesty … Is it about Yaoji and Mu Lie last night …" Old Marquis Muyang felt very complicated. He didn't know if he was worried about Yaoji's relationship with the Prince Ding Mansion or Mu Lie's life or death.
Mo Jingli sneered, "Senior Marquis Mu, I remember that Yaoji was missing for several years?"
Old Marquis Muyang nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty."
"Do you know where Yaoji was and what she did during those years?" Mo Jingli asked. Old Marquis Muyang's back was drenched in sweat, he dared not answer. Mo Jingli slammed the letter on the desk and said sternly, "Yaoji was in Glass City during those years! And he even opened a teahouse. Good job … I trusted the House of Marquis Muyang so much. It turns out that the traitor was right beside me! "
Old Marquis Muyang's legs turned to jelly as he knelt on the ground. "Your Majesty … Your Majesty is wise! Those were all done by that bitch Yaoji. Marquis Muyang's Mansion had nothing to do with the Prince Ding Mansion. This old minister … this old minister and Prince Ding have enmity, how could this old minister rely on Prince Ding? Your Majesty, please understand! "Mo Jingli narrowed his eyes and said," You can't? Then what about Muyang? Since ancient times, women have always been a hero's grave. Would Muyang rely on the Prince Ding Mansion because of Yaoji? One hundred thousand men couldn't defeat Lu Jinxian's five thousand men, and he even came back alive. Old Marquis Muyang, how can I trust you? "
Many things will be fine if you don't think about it. Once you think about it, a lot of questions will come to your mind and you can't stop them.
Mo Jingli was a suspicious person. What's more, the House of Marquis Muyang wasn't loyal to him from the beginning. Since Marquis Muyang could betray Mo Jingqi and pledge loyalty to him, naturally, he could betray him and pledge loyalty to Mo Xiuyao. Thinking of this, his gaze on Old Marquis Muyang became more and more unfriendly. Old Marquis Muyang secretly complained in his heart, but he also understood that no matter how much he tried to explain, Mo Jingli would only think that he was quibbling. In his heart, he just wanted to skin Yaoji and pull out her tendons. He never thought that he would be tricked by his son's woman in the end.
"Your Majesty …" Old Marquis Muyang opened his mouth and wanted to say something. Mo Jingli didn't want to listen to him anymore. He snorted and said, "Enough! I don't want to listen to you anymore. "Old Marquis Muyang quickly shook his head and said," No! Your Majesty, please listen to me. Yaoji … Yaoji, that bitch, will definitely go to Yang 'er after leaving the camp … I beg you, Your Majesty … " Mo Jingli sneered and said, "I would have forgotten if you didn't mention it. Don't worry, you will be reunited with Muyang soon! Guards, go away! "
He was grabbed by the guards and dragged out of the tent without any hesitation. Old Marquis Muyang knew that the situation was hopeless. It was useless to say anything more, so he could only shut his mouth.
In the camp of the Chu Army's West Army, Mu Yang was discussing military matters with General Xi Xi and Lei Tengfeng. A guard came in and reported, "General Mu, there is a child outside who wants to see you. He said he is the heir of the Marquis Muyang's residence. "
Mu Yang was slightly startled. He was a little curious why Mu Lie came to find him alone. Lei Tengfeng's eyes flashed and said with a smile, "Brother Mu, you should go and see if anything happened to the heir first."
Mu Yang nodded. Mu Lie's sudden arrival also made him a little worried about what happened. Lei Tengfeng's suggestion was naturally to his liking. He stood up and cupped his hands towards Lei Tengfeng and said, "Thank you, heir."
When he left the camp, he saw Mu Lie standing outside in a mess and shivering. It was only the beginning of February, and the north was still chilly. Mu Lie was wearing tattered clothes. Even his lips had turned purple from all the movement. Mu Yang hurriedly took off his clothes and hugged him. He asked anxiously, "Lie 'er, why are you here alone?"
Mu Lie's trembling lips moved and said, "Mother … … mother … …" Before he could say anything, tears flowed out first. Mu Yang was shocked and hurriedly asked, "What happened to your mother?" Mu Lie looked at Mu Yang in a daze. Finally, he burst into tears.
Seeing him like this, it was obvious that he was frightened. Mu Yang hugged him tenderly and said softly, "Good child, don't be afraid. Come and tell father … … what happened?" Mu Lie leaned into Mu Yang's arms and said while sobbing, "Bad people … … bad people took mother and Lie 'er away. After that, Lie 'er escaped … … I wanted to go back and ask grandfather to save mother, but … … but they said grandfather was captured by the Emperor. Wah … … father, save mother … … save grandfather … … "
"What?" Mu Yang was taken aback by such a drastic change. He supported Mu Lie and asked, "You said your grandfather was captured by the Emperor? Why? "Mu Lie was stunned. He shook his head and said," I don't know, I don't know … … Lie 'er heard it from someone else. Lie 'er didn't dare to go back, so I begged a kind uncle to bring Lie' er to find father. "
Mu Lie was young, so his words were also intermittent and disjointed. Mu Yang couldn't help but panic. Lei Tengfeng, who followed them out, also heard their conversation. He looked thoughtfully at Mu Lie, who was sobbing in Mu Yang's arms, and said in a low voice, "Brother Mu, don't be anxious. Ask properly first. Besides … … the Cold Valley Pass isn't far from here. If something really happened, news should come quickly. Little Heir … … how did you get here? "The Cold Valley Pass wasn't far from here, but it wasn't near either. No matter what, it was still a distance of two hundred miles. How could a child come all the way here alone?
Mu Lie sobbed and shook his head in Mu Yang's arms. He said, "Wah … … I don't know … … I rode here … …"
