At this moment, Ye Yiqing wasn't in a carefree and unfettered mood. He sent Zhao Yang to Jinkou City and parted with his lovely wife, so he was naturally very reluctant. He repeatedly told his trusted subordinates in Jinkou City to protect his wife well before he reluctantly left Jinkou City.
Before he arrived in the capital, he heard that Yao Yao had fallen out of favor because of her unclean reputation and was forced to move to Chengde Villa to avoid the limelight. Mo Rongzhan had fallen in love with someone else and the once glorious Empress had become an abandoned Empress. If she was not pregnant, she would have been abolished long ago.
"Master, could this matter be fake?" Tian Jiu asked in a low voice. He had just heard the discussion downstairs at the inn. Although he was angry, he still wanted to believe it was fake.
Ye Yiqing said lightly, "Since it has been spread, it must be true."
As for the truth, only Yaoyao knew.
He had received a letter from Yao Yao a few days ago, but she did not mention this matter. It seemed that it was not clear in a few words.
When he was in Anhe City, he was very worried that Mo Rongzhan's amnesia would hurt Yao Yao. If it was before, he naturally believed that Mo Rongzhan would not do such a thing. But now … no matter what the truth was, he felt that Yao Yao had been wronged.
If Mo Rongzhan was not the emperor, he would definitely beat him up when he arrived in the capital.
Therefore, he had always hoped that Yao Yao would not become the Empress. He could not beat his son-in-law even if he wanted to.
"Master, what should we do? Are we going to watch the girl be wronged? " Man Qin said in a deep voice. He remembered the unfortunate girl, Ye Zhen. Her heart was broken by Mo Rongzhan at the beginning. Did their little girl have to suffer the same fate?
Ye Yiqing whispered, "We don't know whether Yao Yao has been wronged or not. We will see when we return to the capital."
Mo Rongzhan had better not hurt Yao Yao again. Otherwise, no matter how difficult it would be, he would take Yao Yao away from the capital.
He had already lost a daughter and thought that he had lost Yao Yao. He would not experience the same thing a second time.
Although there were still doubts, Ye Yiqing still hoped that Mo Rongzhan had a reason for doing this. But in his heart, he felt that no matter what the reason was, it was Mo Rongzhan's fault that Yao Yao was being talked about like this.
When he was about to arrive in the capital, he heard another news.
The Jin State and the Qi State wanted to unite by marriage. Mo Rongzhan wanted to personally go to the Qi State to propose marriage and marry the princess of the Qi State as his Imperial Concubine.
"…" Ye Yiqing frowned when he heard the news. What was Mo Rongzhan doing? It was one thing to form a marriage alliance with the Kingdom of Qi, which was considered from a political standpoint, but what the hell was this about personally proposing marriage?
Was he trying to suppress Yaoyao?
Could it be true that Yaoyao had been neglected earlier?
"Master, something doesn't seem right." Man Qin said in a low voice, "What does Mo Rongzhan mean by treating our Miss like this?"
Ye Yiqing held his breath and said, "We'll know when we get back to the capital."
Even Jin Shanshan couldn't help but ask Ye Yiqing, "Father, how much of the news from the capital is true? I'm very worried about Yaoyao. "
"I'm also worried." Ye Yiqing said in a low voice. He looked at Jin Shanshan and made up his mind. "Shanshan, I have something to discuss with you."
Jin Shanshan looked up. "Father, please speak."
"Don't follow me to the capital. Go to Xiliang. Something might happen in the capital this time. I'll be more at ease if you go to Ah Nan." At this moment, Ye Yiqing was very glad that he had settled Zhao Yang in Jinkou City. Even if he wanted to do something in the capital, he would have less to worry about.
"Father, I'll go to the capital." Jin Shanshan thought that if something really happened, she would be able to help a little.
Ye Yiqing shook his head and said firmly, "No, you go to Xiliang. That way, both Yaoyao and I will be more at ease."
Seeing that Ye Yiqing was very determined, Jin Shanshan could only say, "I'll listen to Father."
"Okay." Ye Yiqing nodded lightly. He called Man Qin in and asked him to make arrangements for Jin Shanshan's departure.
Tian Jiu saw that Ye Yiqing's arrangements were unusual and couldn't help but ask, "Master, do you want to do something?"
Ye Yiqing smiled and said, "What can I do? I'll go to the capital first."
He had never been a person who acted according to reason. He had told Mo Rongzhan before that if he made Yaoyao unhappy again, he would take her away.
Even if Mo Rongzhan lost his memory and did something he would never do in the past, it would still be the same.
Before Ye Yiqing reached the capital, he let Jin Shanshan leave for Xiliang. Then, he didn't set off immediately. Instead, he told Tian Jiu to go back to Jinkou City to prepare some things. After two days, he set off for the capital again.
As an Emperor, there were indeed many things that he couldn't choose. Ye Yiqing could understand Mo Rongzhan as an Emperor. He had been the Prime Minister for a few years and was very clear about Mo Rongzhan's difficulties. However, as Yaoyao's father, he was selfish. He didn't need Yaoyao's noble status. He only wanted her to be happy and safe for the rest of her life.
He listened to Yaoyao and let her be willful for once. In the end, his family was ruined and she died so miserably. Therefore, this time, he made a choice for her. Whether she was willing or not, he wouldn't listen to her anymore.
At this time, Mo Rongzhan, who was in Chengde Villa, hadn't had a day of peace when he received the news from Dongqing.
"Li Hang wants Dongqing to become a vassal of the Northern Dark Kingdom?" Mo Rongzhan held the secret letter in his hand and slammed the table angrily. "Without Ye Yiqing as his Prime Minister, will his Dongqing perish? Why is he so eager to cling to the thigh of the Northern Dark Kingdom? "
Ye Zhen, who was about to send snacks to Mo Rongzhan, heard curses coming from inside the study. She was stunned when she heard Mo Rongzhan's words.
What did Li Hang want to do? Wasn't Dongqing allied with the Jin Kingdom?
Tang Zhen whispered, "Your Majesty, if Dongqing really becomes a vassal of the Northern Dark Kingdom, then we must withdraw our troops from Xiliang. Otherwise, General Ye will be in danger."
"I know." Mo Rongzhan nodded in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty …" Tang Zhen said with difficulty, "Unless we ally with the Qi Kingdom, we can't continue to fight in Xiliang."
The premise of an alliance with the Qi Kingdom was marriage. This was the last thing Tang Zhen wanted to say. He knew that it would hurt Yaoyao.
Mo Rongzhan didn't speak. He frowned. After sending Zhao Yong away, he had given up the idea of marriage. Especially when he saw Ye Zhen, he felt that giving up was the right thing to do.
What he never expected was Li Hang's betrayal!
"Let's go back to the palace first." Mo Rongzhan said in a deep voice. Go back and discuss countermeasures first. There must be a way.
Ye Zhen heard this and took a few steps back. She was about to turn and leave when she saw Mo Rongzhan open the door and come out.
She smiled. "I was just about to find you and bring you delicious food."
