Ye Zhen sat on the armchair with the scented tea that Jianjia had just brewed for her. The green smoke curled up. She looked down at Zhao Ning, who was forced to kneel in front of Hong Ying. Recalling what she saw in those dreams, she still felt a little uneasy about the fisherwoman in front of her.
It's not that she didn't believe Mo Rongzhan, but she was worried about Zhao Ning.
"Your Highness, I don't know what I have done wrong. Why did you let people catch me like this?" Zhao Ning looked up at Ye Zhen, unconvinced. She didn't know how many people in the mansion saw this, but she didn't know how to laugh at her.
"Miss Zhao, I heard that you have been guarding the front yard today. People advised you to leave, but you didn't listen. I don't know what you are doing. Why don't you tell me and let me solve it for you?" Ye Zhen said lightly.
Zhao Ning looked at Ye Zhen and asked tentatively, "I'm going to see the emperor. Can niang niang let me see the emperor?"
Hong Ying glared at her. "Do you think the emperor is someone you can see whenever you want?"
"Why do you want to see the emperor?" Ye Zhen motioned for Hong Ying to be quiet and looked at Zhao Ning faintly.
"The emperor promised me that he would find my biological father for me, but I've been here for several days. I'm afraid that the emperor and niang niang have long forgotten my existence, let alone news of my father." Zhao Ning said with great grievance.
Ye Zhen looked up at Zhao Ning. "You went to the front yard to find the emperor because of your father?"
Zhao Ning's mouth evoked a sarcastic smile. "Of course, otherwise, what did niang niang think I was going to do?"
"The emperor has ordered the Sixth Wangye to inquire for you. It's useless for you to go to the emperor. If you want to know the whereabouts of your father, ask the Sixth Wangye." Ye Zhen said lightly.
In fact, she had some doubts in her heart. Zhao Ning seemed to be different from what she saw in her dream.
If she was not here, would Mo Rongzhan, who had amnesia, wake up and see Zhao Ning? Would he think of her as herself? She wanted to have another dream, but since Mo Rongzhan fell off the cliff, she had no more nightmares.
Looking at Zhao Ning, she still had a knot in her heart. She really hoped that Murong Ke would find her biological father quickly so that she could leave here as soon as possible.
"Sixth Wangye …" Zhao Ning frowned. Although she knew that the Sixth Wangye was very powerful, she still felt that she was being ignored.
"Do you think the Sixth Prince can't find your father for you?" Ye Zhen asked faintly.
Zhao Ning pouted, "I didn't think so. Where can I find the Sixth Wangye?"
Ye Zhen had already seen that Zhao Ning was probably accustomed to the taste of being doted on by everyone when she was in Hua Village. Therefore, when she came here, she was still self-centered, thinking that everyone should regard her affairs as the most important.
"Hong Ying, bring her to see the Sixth Duke." Ye Zhen said to Hong Ying. Although she did not like Zhao Ning's character, in the end, he was not a person who had anything to do with her.
"Yes, Empress." Hong Ying nodded.
Zhao Ning looked up at Ye Zhen seriously. There was no fear in her eyes. She felt a little confused. For a long time, she felt that she would not be an ordinary fisherwoman. She believed that one day, she would change her fate. This feeling was very strong, as if she was born to know this fact.
After saving Mo Rongzhan by the lake, she thought that he might be the destined benefactor. He would definitely change her fate and let her leave Hua Village. However, no one thought that before he woke up, the Empress who made her feel inferior appeared.
She had always thought that she was beautiful. She did not expect that there would be someone more beautiful than her. Moreover, her every move revealed a distinguished and noble elegance. This was a temperament that she could not catch up with.
Zhao Ning felt that her life should not be like this, but she could not figure out what went wrong.
It was as if the life that belonged to her had been robbed.
"Miss Zhao, please." Hong Ying called out to Zhao Ning who was in a daze.
Zhao Ning came back to her senses and looked at the position where Ye Zhen had just sat, only to find that she had left.
"Where is the Sixth Wangye?" Zhao Ning walked behind Hong Ying. She was very doubtful that the Sixth Wangye could really help her find her biological father.
"Today is so lively, if not in the front courtyard, where else would he be?" Hong Ying glanced at her.
Zhao Ning knew that this maid looked down on her. She snorted coldly and said in a cold and sarcastic tone, "Could it be that those who serve beside the Empress look down on people like this?"
Hong Ying glanced at her lazily. "That depends on who you're dealing with."
"As a person, don't look down on others, or you will regret it in the future." Zhao Ning's mouth floated a trace of a sneer, and said without looking at Hong Ying.
"I think that as a person, one must have self-awareness. Don't take yourself too seriously, or you will be laughed at by others." Hong Ying said lightly.
Zhao Ning glared at her fiercely, "Let's wait and see."
"You wait here, I'll go see if the Sixth Wangye is inside." When they reached the second door, Hong Ying stopped and asked Zhao Ning to stop there and not follow.
"Okay." This matter concerned her future, Zhao Ning could only endure all the displeasure.
There was a banquet in the front courtyard, and people were all generals and deputy generals. Hong Ying looked for a long time but didn't see Murong Ke. She didn't know where the Sixth Wangye had gone.
"Hong Ying, what are you looking for?" Shen Yi saw her figure and walked over from the other side of the crowd to ask her.
"Shen daren." Hong Ying revealed a smile, "I'm here to find the Sixth Wangye. Do you know where he is?"
"The Sixth Wangye is with the Emperor. He was here just now, but he might have gone to the study." Shen Yi said.
Wouldn't the study pass the second door? Hong Ying frowned, "I'll go find the Sixth Wangye now."
Shen Yi grabbed her wrist, "Is there something wrong?"
"Isn't it all because of that fisherwoman?" Hong Ying snorted with a red face, "She wants to find her father. Just now, she wanted to go to the front to find the Emperor."
"I'll go with you to find the Sixth Wangye." Shen Yi said.
"Okay." Hong Ying smiled and nodded.
Before they reached the second door, Hong Ying saw the figures of the Emperor and the Sixth Wangye walking over from the other side.
Her heart tightened. She wanted to order Zhao Ning to leave before he saw the Emperor. However, Zhao Ning noticed the Emperor and the others faster than her. He had already knelt down to pay his respects, "This commoner greets the Emperor."
Hong Ying and Shen Yi looked at each other, and reluctantly went forward, "This lowly servant greets the Emperor and the Sixth Wangye."
Mo Rongzhan only glanced at Zhao Ning lightly. He didn't remember who this woman was, and thought she was a maid. He asked Hong Ying, "Why are you here? Is something the matter?"
