There was a demoness and a beauty, her face red like a blooming lotus, her clothes white like cream, graceful and elegant …
When Zhao Yong first saw Ye Zhen, such a description came to his mind. Before coming to the capital, he had already seen Lu Yaoyao's portrait. What's more, along the way, people kept describing her as a beauty that could cause the downfall of a city and country. He had long heard calluses in his ears, but now that he saw Lu Yaoyao with his own eyes, he finally believed what others said.
Her eyes were round and as bright as the stars, looking at him vigilantly and coldly. Zhao Yong stopped three steps away from her. "Empress, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."
"What are you doing here?" Ye Zhen asked coldly.
Zhao Yong smiled, "I want to know the elegant demeanor of the Jin Kingdom's Empress."
"Has the King of Qi never seen a woman in the Kingdom of Qi?" Ye Zhen looked at him coldly. At the first sight of Zhao Yong, she could almost guess his identity. When she heard his words, she was more certain.
This man is the King of Qi that Mo Rongzhan mentioned before.
Zhao Yong raised his eyebrows. It seemed that the Empress was quite smart to guess who he was so quickly. However, wasn't she left out in the cold at Chengde Villa? It seemed that Mo Rongzhan still came to see her often.
"There are many beauties in the world, but there are not many like the Empress." Zhao Yong said with a smile. When it comes to women, he has seen countless of them. Those who can make his eyes light up are really the world's stunners.
Ye Zhen didn't think that Zhao Zhongshen came here just to see her. As Mo Rongzhan said, this prince did not seem to be addicted to wine and women like the rumors said. Could a person addicted to wine and women unconsciously make the people around her silent? His martial arts were definitely not under Mo Rongzhan's.
"Why don't you explain your purpose? Don't you feel tired of going around in circles?" Ye Zhen said lightly, a little worried about the safety of Hong Ling and the others.
Zhao Yong seemed to see through Ye Zhen's worries and said with a smile, "Empress, don't be nervous. Your maids and guards are all right. I have said that I will not hurt you. I'm just curious about what kind of woman can make Mo Rongzhan give up the chance to get half of the world. He would rather not form an alliance with the Kingdom of Qi than abolish his empress.
Did the State of Qi want Mo Rongzhan to cripple their empress before they were willing to form an alliance? Ye Zhen was shocked and looked at Zhao Yong with a frown. "Did this consort hinder your State of Qi?"
"If I had known that the Empress was this elegant, I would not have made such a request in front of Mo Rongzhan." Zhao Yong sighed.
"I heard that the Qi Kingdom would never allow their princesses to marry outside of the kingdom. It seems like that's not the case." Ye Zhen said sarcastically. It was not difficult to understand the meaning of Zhao Yong's words. He wanted Mo Rongzhan to marry the State of Qi.
Was he going to depose her as the Empress and marry the princess of the Kingdom of Qi?
Zhao Yong laughed. "Everything depends on the timing."
"So now that Your Highness has seen me, do you still want to persuade the Emperor to abolish the Empress?" Ye Zhen asked coldly.
"Some things only need to be said once. There's no need to say it a second time." Zhao Yong said. He believed that Mo Rongzhan would definitely think things through. He originally planned to wait for the marriage alliance between the two countries before getting rid of Lu Yaoyao, but now that he saw her, he changed his mind.
Before, he had been thinking about what Mo Rongzhan's weakness was. Now, he probably knew that Lu Yaoyao in front of him was Mo Rongzhan's weakness.
Ye Zhen smiled slightly. "Your Highness, you are sick. You have to be cured."
Zhao Yong was surprised that Lu Yaoyao could still be so calm. Was she really not afraid of what he would do to her? "What illness does this Prince have? It is said that the Empress of the Jin Kingdom is a divine doctor. This Prince has always wanted to see it. "
How could she see that he was sick without even checking his pulse? Zhao Yong resisted the urge to laugh. Except for the Valley Master of the Medicine Valley, no one had ever said that he had a problem with his body.
Of course, he did not believe Valley Master Duanmu's words. His body was very strong. If he was sick, he would have fallen ill long ago.
Ye Zhen raised her eyes and looked at Zhao Yong seriously. This man was not old, probably less than forty years old. His aura was overbearing and strong. Although there was a smile at the corner of his mouth, his deep ink-black eyes revealed a touch of piercing sharpness. For so long, she had only seen this kind of aura in Mo Rongzhan.
However, Zhao Zhongshen's face still hid a deep melancholy. At this time, Ye Zhen did not think of herself as the Empress of the Jin Kingdom at all. She was just instinctively approaching him as a doctor. "Have you been injured before?"
Zhao Yong chuckled. "How many people who come down from the battlefield have not been injured?"
"Did you hurt your head?" Ye Zhen looked at his forehead. There was no scar on it. She was just guessing.
Zhao Yong narrowed his eyes slightly. He stretched out his hand and motioned for Ye Zhen to come over and take his pulse.
Ye Zhen directly put her fingertips gently on the pulse of his wrist. His pulse was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and it was strong and powerful. This man's internal force was so deep! She looked at his head in surprise. As she guessed, his head must have been injured, otherwise there would not be any sequelae.
Could she really see that he had been injured before? Zhao Yong's eyes fell on her white fingers. How could someone's skin be so delicate and white, just like white jade? Even her fingers were so beautiful. What about the rest of her body?
Zhao Yong's heart was hot, and he only felt a stuffy irritation in his chest.
Ye Zhen, who had been putting her fingers on his pulse, felt the change in his pulse. She was stunned for a moment, frowned and let go of his hand. She looked at him faintly. "You are really sick."
"My illness is very easy to cure, as long as there is a woman." Zhao Yong smiled wickedly.
Ye Zhen took out a pill from the pouch at her waist and handed it to Zhao Yong. "It's not that women can cure your illness. You just transfer the pain of your illness to other places. You are about to fall ill. Do you dare to take this consort's medicine?"
Zhao Yong stared at Ye Zhen. When his eyes fell on her lower abdomen, he suppressed the impulse in his heart. He was a romantic, but not a beast. He took the pill from Ye Zhen's hand. "Am I afraid that the Empress will poison me?"
"This consort really wants to." If she poisoned this man to death, many things would be over.
If this man was not from the State of Qi, she really wanted to keep him in Chengde Villa. His illness was one in a hundred. It was definitely a very exciting challenge. Unfortunately …
"Your Highness, Your Highness …" Not far away, the voices of Hong Ling and the others came anxiously.
Zhao Yong threw the medicine into his mouth and leaned close to Ye Zhen's face. "If I die in your hands, I will accept it. Why don't you give me a kiss as compensation?"
What answered him was a silver arrow that pierced his shoulder.
Ye Zhen said with a smile, "Didn't anyone tell your highness that in addition to medical books, this consort is also good at sleeve darts?"
