Mo Rongzhan asked Ye Zhen to stay with him in the study. He still had some memorials to read.
"Has Qiu Yaozu arrived in the capital?" Ye Zhen looked at the memorials he had already reviewed. Many of them were complaints against the Empress Dowager's family.
It seemed that the Qiu family had caused a lot of trouble in the capital. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people submitting petitions.
"It should be arriving soon." Mo Rongzhan said lightly, "The Empress Dowager relies heavily on the Qiu family. A Yi is still too benevolent and cannot suppress the Empress Dowager."
"Even Yi can't suppress the Qiu Family. Can Qiu Yaozu change that?" Ye Zhen was a little worried. She didn't know what the Empress Dowager would do. She always felt that it was dangerous for the Empress Dowager to rely on the Qiu Family.
The Empress Dowager … her thoughts were getting deeper and deeper, and no one could see through her.
Mo Rongzhan put down the memorial in his hand. "Even if I can't suppress the Qiu family, as long as they have some scruples, it's enough. And with Old Xu here, Tang Zhen should go back in a few days. The Empress Dowager will certainly restrain herself. As for these things that the Qiu family has done, I will naturally deal with them when I go back."
"It's very tiring not to be able to be a mother and son." Ye Zhen whispered, looking at Mo Rongzhan with distress.
Mo Rongzhan raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Feeling sorry for me?"
"You have not been protected and favored by the Empress Dowager since you were a child. Although you are now the king of a country, you are still the same as before. Of course, I love you." Ye Zhen held his arm and looked at him with trembling eyes.
"It's enough for zhen to have you by my side." Mo Rongzhan kissed the corner of her mouth. "It's getting late. zhen will accompany you back to the room to rest."
She could barely keep her eyes open. It seemed that she was really tired today.
Ye Zhen held his hand and refused to let go. "I'm here with you."
"This one will go read the memorials in the room and accompany you to sleep, okay?" Mo Rongzhan asked in amusement. She liked to stick to him so much, so why didn't he feel annoyed at all?
"Okay." Ye Zhen nodded with a smile and put her arms around his neck. "You carry me back."
Mo Rongzhan chuckled and carried her in his arms. Looking down at her sweet smile, his heart became soft and moist. He simply did not know how to like her.
Outside the door, Gonggong Fu and Hong Ying heard the movements in the room and opened the door to the study. When they saw the Emperor holding the Empress, they thought that something had happened to the Empress. When they saw the Empress smiling sweetly in the Emperor's arms, they could only lower their heads and laugh.
The Empress had a way to make the Emperor who was usually feared become gentle and amiable.
Back in the room, Mo Rongzhan put Ye Zhen on the soft bed. "Have a good rest. I will accompany you for a walk outside tomorrow."
Ye Zhen was really sleepy, but there was always a voice in her heart telling her not to fall asleep. She grabbed Mo Rongzhan's hand. "Don't go."
"I won't leave. I will stay by your side to accompany you." Mo Rongzhan said gently.
"Ah Zhan …" Ye Zhen hugged him tightly. "I've been thinking about things from the past recently."
Mo Rongzhan's thin lips gently pressed against hers. "Don't think about it anymore."
Ye Zhen smiled. In fact, she just wanted to tell him about her doubts about Lu Lingzhi. He thought she remembered something.
"Go to sleep." Mo Rongzhan said. He didn't want her to remember what a bastard he used to be.
"Okay." Ye Zhen smiled. I'll talk to him tomorrow.
Mo Rongzhan looked down at her sleeping face and kissed her on the forehead. He knew that she had been restless recently. The more restless she was, the more she would remember those unpleasant memories. If he could, he hoped that she could forget everything in King Qin's Mansion and that she could untie the knot in her heart.
"Your Majesty." Someone called him in a low voice outside the room.
It was Ye Chunnan's voice! It seemed that there was something important. Mo Rongzhan held Ye Zhen's hand and rubbed it a few times. He didn't know why, but he felt that he didn't want to leave her tonight. It was as if he had an ominous feeling that if he left, he wouldn't know when he would see her again.
It seemed that he was affected by her uneasiness. How could a dream be real?
Mo Rongzhan shook his head and smiled bitterly. He lingered on the corner of her lips for a while before turning and walking out of the room.
"Mo Rongzhan …" Ye Zhen whispered.
Mo Rongzhan, who had already walked to the door, turned his head sharply but saw that she was just talking in her sleep.
He chuckled and shook his head, opened the door and walked out. Sure enough, he saw Ye Chunnan waiting outside the door with a dignified face.
"Take care of the Queen." Mo Rongzhan told Hong Ying and Jianjia, nodded to Ye Chunnan, and went to the tea room next door to talk.
Ye Chunnan said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, look, this was just taken outside the door."
Mo Rongzhan looked at the envelope in Ye Chunnan's hand with a dagger inserted in it. "Who sent this?"
"Lu Lingzhi's men shot this on the door. The man has been caught by the secret guards, but he refused to say anything." Ye Chunnan said.
"Give me the letter." Mo Rongzhan's voice was cold.
This letter was indeed sent by Lu Lingzhi. When Mo Rongzhan saw the contents, his face became livid and ugly. "You stay with Yao Yao tonight and don't leave. I will go to see Lu Lingzhi."
Ye Chunnan immediately said, "Your Majesty, this subject will also go."
"I don't feel at ease leaving Yao Yao in the hands of others!" Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice. "What if this is Lu Lingzhi's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"
These words made Ye Chunnan fall silent. He thought of how cunning Lu Lingzhi was. Perhaps this really was his plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. If Yao Yao fell into his hands again, it wouldn't be easy to save her.
"I won't let him take Yao Yao away again." Ye Chunnan said with a firm voice.
Mo Rongzhan smiled and nodded. Regarding Yao Yao's safety, the one he trusted the most was Ye Chunnan.
"Your Majesty, do you know where to find Lu Lingzhi?" Ye Chunnan asked.
"In the letter, he wants us to see him." Mo Rongzhan said coldly. Moreover, he stated the condition that he had to see him.
Ye Chunnan frowned, "He really isn't afraid of death."
"He knows Yao Yao's secret." Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice, "We cannot let him live in this world anymore."
"What?" Ye Chunnan cried out in surprise. Realizing that he had lost his composure, he hurriedly lowered his voice, "He knows Yao Yao is … How did he know?"
Mo Rongzhan said, "He should have seen the similarity between Yao Yao and Ye Zhen from somewhere. It's just a guess."
"Even if it's just a guess, as long as he talks nonsense outside, others will still suspect Yao Yao." Ye Chunnan gritted his teeth and said, "Back in the Wasteland, I should have killed him!"
"Since Lu Lingzhi threatened us to see him, he shouldn't tell others about this." Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice, "We will definitely kill him."
Ye Chunnan said, "Your Majesty, be careful too."
Mo Rongzhan smiled faintly and clenched the letter in his hand tightly. A murderous look flashed in his eyes.
