Chapter 303 Xiling dispatches troops

In fact, this reaction itself has already explained the problem. He looked at his father with a headache and sighed: "Dad, do you know what you are doing?" Hou Mu Yang was stunned and lowered his eyes and said: "Dad is also for the prosperity of the Mu Yang Marquis' Mansion. Yang'er, don't worry, there will be no problem. Go down." Mu Yang wanted to say something else, but when he saw his father's face, he finally swallowed the words to his mouth and silently left the study.

Back at the Ding King's Mansion, Ye Li turned around and looked at Zhuo Jing who was following him and said lightly: "Is this result satisfactory?"

Zhuo Jing was silent for a while, and suddenly raised his hand to smear on his face. A thin layer of leather mask was wiped off his face, revealing his vicissitudes and sad face. In fact, Mu Qingcang's disguise was not very similar to Zhuo Jing himself, but not many people had seen Zhuo Jing, at least Mu Yang Hou had never seen Zhuo Jing. Zhuo Jing always liked to maintain a expressionless appearance in front of outsiders, so even Mu Yang Hou did not notice anything wrong with Mu Qingcang with a stiff expression. Mu Qingcang lowered his head and said indifferently: "I am willing to accept the loss."

Ye Li didn't mean to be proud, just said, "It's just a transaction. Now tell me the information you know."

"Aren't you afraid that I will break the contract?"

Ye Li sneered: "You break the contract, I will kill Marquis Muyang!"

Mu Qingcang closed his eyes tiredly and said, "I understand. I will tell you what I know. You ask."

Ye Li put away the smile on her face, looked at the person in front of her with a solemn expression and asked in a deep voice: "How did King Mo Xiuwen of the Former Ding die?"

Mu Qingcang was stunned. Unexpectedly, she would ask such a question as soon as she opened her mouth. She was so happy and said calmly: "I killed it."

Ye Li raised his eyebrows and said nothing. Mu Qingcang said, "I was ordered to go to the border where I fought with Beirong and threw the poison into Mo Xiuwen's water, causing him to die of illness." Ye Li stared at him coldly and sneered, "Mr. Mu really dares to say anything."

Mu Qingcang didn't care and said lightly: "Since I promised the princess, I will naturally keep my promise. If the princess feels that she dares not listen, just pretend that she doesn't say anything."

Ye Li snorted and said, "Mr. Mu said half of what he said, so I naturally don't dare to listen."

Mu Qingcang lowered his eyes and said, "With the princess' intelligence and talent, do you still need to explain the rest in detail?" Ye Li closed her eyes and took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I will not ask Mr. Mu's messenger behind the scenes. Please tell me what you know. Also... I do not guarantee Mr. Mu's life safety."

Mu Qingcang said calmly: "It's okay. It's no different from me, whether it's life or death."

In the study, it was as quiet as if a needle fell and could hear the sound. Ye Li looked at the middle-aged man sitting in front of him silently. His beautiful face was calm and without a trace of expression, but still could not stop the storm waves that arose in his heart because of the words he just heard. Mo Xiuwen died young due to illness. Many people could guess that there must be some secrets unknown to outsiders, but even Ye Li did not think that Mo Xiuwen's death would be related to the one in the palace. Back then, when Mo Xiuwen died of illness, the Mo family army was frustrated, the current emperor ascended the throne for only three years, and he rushed to attack the Ding Palace...

"What else does the princess want to know?" Mu Qingcang looked at Ye Li with a smile, with a little more gloating expression.

Ye Li said lightly: "Everything."

Mu Qingcang was stunned and stared at Ye Li and said, "What's the matter? The princess has figured it out clearly? You must know that the secrets are enough to affect the entire Great Chu and even the entire world."

Ye Li smiled coldly and said, "Although I have never met the previous Prince Ding, he is also my husband's brother and my concubine's brother. What's more... if you fall into my concubine's hands, do you think that if I don't listen to others, I will think that I don't know this secret?"

Mu Qingcang was silent for a moment and sighed softly: "King Ding is such a blessing. Since the princess insists, I will tell the princess everything, just treat it as repaying the princess. In the next wish."

Ye Li and Mu Qingcang sat in the study room all morning without knowing what they said. When they came out of the study room, their expressions were a little solemn. Mu Qingcang was taken away by two secret guards, but before leaving, he suddenly turned around and looked at Ye Li and smiled: "I can see below that the princess is a determined person. Why not give you a message for free?" Ye Li said calmly: "Listen to the ears."

"Xiling has decided to send troops to Da Chu on August 15th. What will the princess plan to do?" After saying that, without looking at Ye Li's expression, Mu Qingcang changed his previous decadent and gloomy smiled.

The smile on Ye Li's lips gradually faded. Looking at the sky above the yard for a long time, Ye Li turned around and turned away, "I inform Feng San and Sun Yan to come to the study room to see me immediately!"

Feng Zhiyao and Sun Yan came very quickly, and they felt that they arrived almost at the same time. As soon as they entered the study, they saw Ye Li and Zhuo Jing sitting behind the desk looking at the thick file. Feng Zhiyao glanced casually. It was the confession of the assassin and the various information collected by the secret guards. He raised his eyebrows and Feng Zhiyao smiled and said, "Princess, what happened?" Ye Li looked up at him and said, "It's really something happened."

Feng Zhiyao was stunned. The originally leisurely outside figure slowly sat down, looking at Ye Li with a concentric expression. Sun Yan also looked solemn and listened attentively. Ye Li picked up a file and said, "Mu Qingcang told me just now that Xiling was going to use troops against the Great Chu on August 15th." Feng Zhiyao's face flashed with a look of surprise, and his sword eyebrows frowned slightly, "Is this news reliable? We have not received any news in this regard." Ye Li shook his head and said, "I don't know, Mu Qingcang should not tell lies, but the authenticity of this news itself needs to be verified. But..." Ye Li paused and looked up at the two people in front of him and asked, "What day is it today?" Sun Yan said, "The seventh day of the eighth month."

Feng Zhiyao's face also changed, and he stood up and said, "It would be fine if this news was fake, but if it was true..." If it was true, although the Northwest Air Force was not empty, many important positions have been controlled by Mo Jingqi's confidants over the years, and the Mo family army was controlled everywhere. If Xiling suddenly attacked him, he would definitely be caught off guard. Now, they were in the capital and could not arrive at the border for support within seven or eight days. Feng Zhiyao said thoughtfully: "It has been more than 20 days since the prince left Beijing. According to the bride team's steps, he has now entered the territory of Beirong. Not to mention that the prince is responsible for sending off the bride and even if he is fine, it will take at least half a month to rush back to the Xiling border to preside over the overall situation. Moreover, it is impossible for the prince to receive the news immediately. Feng Zhiyao suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart, as if the whole thing was a special case for the Great Chu."

"princess……"

Ye Li frowned and said, "What do you think? Even if you say it straight."
