373. Maiden Yunge
The Chu Family was indeed a distinguished house of Great Chu, but it was a pity that Ye Li wasn't part of the Chu Family. Moreover, the Chu Family's main base, Yunzhou, was still under Lei Zhenting's control. On what grounds could the Chu Family provide funds for Mo Jingli's military expedition against Prince Ding's Mansion? Considering the relationship between the Chu and Xu Families, it was more plausible for Prince Ding's Mansion to raise money to fight Mo Jingli.
Yaoji, somewhat helplessly, stuffed the invitation in her hand into Ye Li's, saying, "I wasn't keen on bringing up such a ridiculous issue with you. However, the Regent Prince put Marquis Muyang's Mansion in charge of this matter, and our mansion's Marquis Lady has been throwing tantrums recently, forcing me to make the trip personally. And it's a good chance to inquire about Young Master Qingchen. It's not easy for me to enter your residence so openly."
