Chapter 636 The benefits of standing by (1)
After sending Mo Jingyu away, Mo Xiuyao was obviously in a good mood. He took Ye Li into his arms and hugged him, sighed with satisfaction and said, "A Li, what do you think of those old men? He knew that I couldn't agree but he had to send someone to lobby?"
Ye Li leaned into his arms and smiled, "Why did they know you wouldn't agree? I think they originally thought that you were very likely to agree." After all, the concept of the Ding Prince's Mansion's loyalty to the Great Chu for hundreds of years is deeply rooted in everyone's minds. Although Mo Xiuyao had already stated that he had severed relations with the Great Chu, after Mo Jingqi issued the edict of guilt, many old ministers thought this was a complete misunderstanding. Now the truth has been revealed, and the Ding Prince's Mansion is naturally the Ding Prince's Mansion that guards the Great Chu.
But they never thought that Mo Jingqi could apologize in front of the world, but no one had stipulated that the Ding Prince's Mansion and the Mo family must accept it and choose to forgive. From this perspective, perhaps Mo Jingli could see it more clearly. At least Mo Jingli would never come to ask Mo Xiuyao for his sake, whether because he knew that Mo Xiuyao would not agree or for his own dignity.
Mo Xiuyao snorted lightly and smiled faintly: "Well, let them give up completely this time."
Ye Li raised her head, "The messenger of Xiling?" Mo Xiuyao said indifferently: "Let him wait a little longer, he is also an acquaintance."
"Lei Tengfeng?" Ye Li understood the identity of the visitor after just a little thought. If you want to negotiate with Mo Xiuyao, King Zhennan could not send a kitten or puppy here casually. Although Xiling is in power in the Zhennan Palace, Lei Zhenting and his son are still very cautious about the people of the Xiling royal family. Therefore, only Lei Tengfeng is the only one who can trust and have this ability. Ye Li asked curiously: "How do you plan to restore Lei Tengfeng?" Mo Xiuyao raised his eyebrows in surprise and smiled: "Why should I reply to him?" Ye Li blinked his eyes, "Don't King Ding want to know what conditions King Zhennan has offered?"
A faint smile appeared on Mo Xiuyao's lips, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, "No matter what conditions he offered... Lei Zhenting would regret it."
After drinking half a cup of tea, the two of them leaned on each other and spoke for a while before they ordered someone to invite Lei Tengfeng over.
Lei Tengfeng came before Mo Jingyu. Although Mo Jingyu's skills were over, Mo Xiuyao chose to see Mo Jingyu first. This made Lei Tengfeng feel a little bit confident in the negotiations in his heart. What's worse is that after Mo Jingyu left, Mo Xiuyao did not meet him immediately, but asked him to wait for about half an hour. Such treatment made him feel less low, but his years of experience were not in vain. Lei Tengfeng has never been an impulsive person, so when Zhuo Jing was ordered to invite him, he still sat calmly and drank tea.
"I have met King Ding and Princess below. Last year, the two people in Xiling farewell to each other even more in the past." Looking at the two people sitting side by side in the main seat, Lei Tengfeng couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Such two people... Just relying on the wholeheartedness of King Ding to Princess Ding over the years is enough to make people envious. Of course, if there is a wife like Princess Ding, I believe anyone is willing to be wholehearted. Although Lei Tengfeng has countless concubines in his mansion, he can't help but feel a little envy in his heart when he sees these two people always walking side by side and supporting each other.
Ye Li smiled and said, "Please sit down by the prince of Zhennan. It seems that after parting last year, the prince was also very charming. By the way, I have not congratulated the prince on being promoted to the position of prince, so I should call him Prince Rui in the future, right?"
Lei Tengfeng was stunned. The fact that he was named Prince was only happened after Xiling sent troops, and it did not make a lot of publicity. Unexpectedly, Ye Li knew it. The news channels of Princess Ding should indeed not be underestimated. Even though he was surprised, Lei Tengfeng's face was calm and he smiled lightly: "Xiao Wang is ashamed, the princess is so serious."
"Then... I don't know what King Rui came from afar?" Ye Li asked.
Lei Tengfeng looked at the white-haired man sitting next to him and smiling at Ye Li. It was obvious that Mo Xiuyao had no intention of speaking. It seemed that he had given the full power to the princess to handle the matter. Although he had already known that Princess Ding's status in Princess Ding's Mansion was the best among all princesses in all dynasties, Lei Tengfeng was still surprised that Mo Xiuyao would even leave such important things to her.
In response to Ye Li's calm and graceful eyes, Lei Tengfeng restrained his thoughts and said seriously: "The Ding Prince's Mansion is well-informed. I believe that the news of Xiling's troops from Da Chu has already known about the news of Xiling's troops?"
Ye Li nodded, smiling without saying a word.
Lei Tengfeng sighed in his heart and said, "If the situation is below today, the king and the princess must have seen it clearly. Xiao Wang dare not show off. Now there is the northern border of the Great Chu in the north, Xiling in the west, and even the east is pirates from time to time to cause trouble. Even though the Great Chu is vast and has many people, it may not be able to defeat the siege of the Three Kingdoms. Xiao Wang comes to ask His Highness Ding for advice on this war... I wonder what King Ding has plans?"
Mo Xiuyao turned his head and looked at him lightly. This glance made Lei Tengfeng feel like an idiot. Of course, he knew that Mo Xiuyao could not tell him what Mo family army had plans, but facing these two people who were not in the process, he always had to start a topic, right? Facing these two people, being straightforward is undoubtedly the best way.
Ye Li just pretended that she didn't see Lei Tengfeng's embarrassment and said with a smile: "I don't know what the King of Zhennan means? This war... what if the Prince Ding Mansion intervenes? So what if I don't intervene?"
Lei Tengfeng said: "The Prince Ding Mansion and the Great Chu have been broken down. My father believes that His Highness, King Ding, must be a person with one word. If the Mo family army is willing to divide the Great Chu together with the Three Kingdoms, it would be great. Everyone depends on their abilities. If King Ding still holds his troops and takes over the Great Chu, Xiling is willing to give gifts to each other with two states near the northwest."
"The King of Zhennan is such a big deal." Ye Li praised with a smile. The northwest is now only four prefectures and thirteen cities. The one export of the King of Zhennan is two prefectures that are equivalent to half of the area of the northwest today, and there is no need for the Mo family to send out one army and one soldier. If you do business normally, this is definitely a good business that only makes money but not loses.
Lei Tengfeng smiled and said, "This is also the sincerity of my father and Xiling. As long as the Mo family army does not help Da Chu, everything is easy to say. In addition, Xiling and Northwest can also sign an agreement, and the two sides can live in peace and be happy forever? I wonder what the princess thinks?" Ye Li frowned and pondered for a moment, and smiled and said, "The conditions proposed by King Rui are indeed very attractive... But for a moment, I am afraid that I can't make a decision." Ye Li glanced helplessly at Mo Xiuyao who was sleeping on his legs and signaled to Lei Tengfeng. His Highness Ding did not want to work, and no one could do anything about it.
Lei Tengfeng could only smile bitterly, of course he understood that Ye Li was not really unable to make a decision for a while, but that the chips they gave were not enough. After gritting their teeth, Lei Tengfeng said: "I remember that many minerals in the northwest were purchased from various countries, including Xiling. As long as His Highness King Ding agreed not to interfere in this matter, all payments for goods before this year will be exempted."
