Ye Zhen wanted to know what they had experienced at sea. They should have come back two months ago, but it had been delayed until now. If they hadn't encountered something at sea, it would have been impossible for them to come back now.
"We found the place on the map. We stayed on the ship while your father took his own people into the mountains so that no one knew what they were looking for. On the way back, someone couldn't resist the temptation and we found a few traitors on the way. Not long after we killed them, we met pirates." Shui Yichen told Ye Zhen everything he had experienced at sea.
"Those people colluded with pirates?" Ye Zhen asked calmly. She didn't ask whose men the traitors were. They were all on the same boat. It didn't matter whose men they were. A traitor was a traitor.
Shui Yichen said, "I don't think so. It's just a coincidence. However, because of the storm, we went astray, so it took us so long to come back."
Ye Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. "It's good that you came back safely."
"Don't you want to ask if the thing you are looking for is still there?" Shui Yichen asked lightly.
They had worked so hard to find the treasure. Wasn't she worried that the gold and silver treasures had been robbed by the pirates?
Ye Zhen gave him a faint look. "I thought you would protect those things."
Shui Yichen snorted coldly. "It's easy for you to say. Do you know how many men I have lost because of this?"
"I don't know. You didn't say." Ye Zhen said.
"Now that the thing you want has been brought back, it is in Nanzhou. Except for me and your father's people, no one knows what it is." Shui Yichen looked up at her. "Are you planning to leave China?"
Ye Zhen didn't know what Ye Yiqing had found, but no matter what it was, she had already planned to go back.
"Yes, I should leave." Ye Zhen whispered. It had been more than a year. If she didn't go back, Mo Rongzhan might really forget her.
Shui Yichen just glanced at her and said nothing more.
Ye Zhen went to Ye Yiqing after Shui Yichen left.
Zhao Yang had just woken up. When she opened her eyes, she saw Ye Yiqing sitting on the edge of the bed with the child in his arms. She was a little dazed, thinking that she had fallen asleep and dreamed that Ye Yiqing had come back.
"You're awake?" Ye Yiqing smiled at her and kissed her on the cheek. "Are you hungry? Yaoyao will get someone to prepare something for you. Eat something first. "
It felt so real! Zhao Yang stared blankly at Ye Yiqing.
Ye Yiqing had already ordered a maid to bring food in. Zhao Yang was indeed very hungry. She felt that she must have been dizzy from hunger, which was why she saw Ye Yiqing.
"Zhao Yang, thank you for giving birth to my son." The smile in Ye Yiqing's eyes became more obvious as he watched Zhao Yang drink the soup mouthful by mouthful.
"Son …" Zhao Yang paused. She had forgotten that she had just given birth to a child not too long ago.
Ye Yiqing held the baby in his arms in front of Zhao Yang. "Look, he just drank milk and is already asleep."
"This is my son?" Zhao Yang asked in a small voice, her tears almost falling. "Are you also real? You're back? "
"Yeah, I wanted to come back before you gave birth, but I was late," Ye Yiqing said gently. "Thank you for your hard work."
Zhao Yang threw herself into his arms. "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
Ye Yiqing comforted her with a smile. "You can't cry during confinement, or your eyes will turn red in the future."
"Where did you hear that?" Zhao Yang glared at him. Although she didn't believe what he said, she still stopped crying and held the child in her arms. "He will grow up to be like you."
"Well, isn't it good to be like me?" Ye Yiqing said with a smile.
Zhao Yang glared at him gently again. The two looked at the child and talked for a while. Zhao Yang felt sleepy again. Ye Yiqing handed the child to the maid and let Zhao Yang lie down to sleep again.
Ye Yiqing came to the hall to see Ye Zhen.
"Daddy!" As soon as Ye Zhen saw him, she ran over and hugged his arm. "I was so worried about you."
"I'm fine." Ye Yiqing smiled and patted Ye Zhen on the shoulder. "We found what Qi Yanling left behind. It's all gold. I brought back twenty boxes."
Ye Zhen looked up in surprise. "Gold?"
"It should be the treasure left by Qi Yanling for her descendants." Ye Zhen had to admit that Qi Yanling was very thoughtful. Leaving gold was more practical than leaving anything behind.
"Twenty boxes of gold …" Ye Zhen whispered. "Are they all in Nanzhou?"
Ye Yiqing gently stroked Ye Zhen's hair. "Yes, they're all yours. Yao Yao, are you going to go back to the Jin Kingdom first or go directly to Dongqing?"
"To Dongqing." Ye Zhen said without hesitation. If she went to the Jin Kingdom first, the elite soldiers and gold and silver she brought with her would become an embarrassing existence.
"Good." Ye Yiqing was obviously satisfied with her decision.
Ye Zhen looked up at him. "Daddy, do you … want to stay?"
When Ye Yiqing went to sea to find the treasure, Ye Zhen felt that her father didn't want to go back with her. He wanted to stay here with Zhao Yang.
"Yaoyao, even without me, you can still do very well." Ye Yiqing whispered, "After you get Dongqing, don't hand over the sovereignty of the country. Let the royal family and courtiers of Dongqing submit to you."
"The royal family of Dongqing will not bow down so easily." Ye Zhen said. After she got Dongqing, of course, she would not hand over the sovereignty.
Ye Yiqing smiled and whispered in Ye Zhen's ear, "The crown prince of Dongqing is a little girl."
"What?" Ye Zhen's eyes widened in shock.
"Only Empress Fang knows about this. You can use your identity as the crown prince to control Dongqing." Ye Yiqing said.
Ye Zhen was silent for a moment. "Dad, then I will go to the palace to say goodbye to Sister Mengxi."
"Go tomorrow." Ye Yiqing said, "You are tired today."
News of Ye Yiqing and Shui Yichen's return quickly spread to the palace. Shen Mengxi was overjoyed but also somewhat regretful. She knew that Yaoyao would not be staying in Northern Border City for much longer and would likely leave in the next two days.
"She borrowed so many elite soldiers from us. She won't just leave like that. She will come back later." Qi Yu's tone was a little unhappy at the thought of so many soldiers taken away by Ye Zhen.
"You can't just give her soldiers. She also needs a general to lead the troops into battle, and also provisions …" Shen Mengxi was still worried for her sister. In her opinion, Yaoyao was a delicate girl who needed to be protected. How could she lead the troops into battle?
Qi Yu was speechless for a while and whispered, "You are really thinking about her."
"If it weren't for Yao Yao, would there still be me and Yuanyuan?" Shen Mengxi's words left Qi Yu with no room to refute.
