Mo Rongzhan continued to live in Ye Zhen's palace aboveboard. Anyway, everyone knew that Ye Zhen was his empress. Even if Shui Yichen saw him with a sour face, it would not affect his relationship with Ye Zhen.
In addition to dealing with the memorials sent from the Jin Kingdom, he accompanied the two children every day. Now, Ming Xi and Ming Yu liked him even more.
Although Ye Zhen had not officially sat on the throne, she was already dealing with state affairs as the ruler of a country. She finally understood how many things Mo Rongzhan had to do every day. Those trivial matters had already been solved by others, otherwise, she would really be tired to tears.
"If there is anything else, let's talk about it tomorrow. I'm really tired today." Ye Zhen waved her hand. Seeing that Shui Yichen wanted to continue the discussion, she hurriedly stopped them. She had come to discuss with them since the morning. Seeing that the sun was about to set, she hadn't left the hall yet. Iron people need rest, okay?
Shui Yichen pursed his lips and glanced at Ye Zhen. He knew that she wanted to see Mo Rongzhan. In the past few days, he had been looking for a lot of things to report to her, just to drag her back to the harem. Since she told him last time, he was now stopped from entering the harem, saying that he could only enter with the permission of the heavenly concubine.
She did this for Mo Rongzhan.
"Then let's talk about it tomorrow." Liu Zhanhu said. "Laws and regulations cannot be said in a day or two."
They wanted to create a new country. There were still some loopholes in the laws of Dongqing, and the ranks of officials had become too chaotic in the past two years. All of this needed to be reformulated. They had been discussing this matter for the past few days.
Huangfu Chen nodded gently and glanced at Shui Yichen, indicating that he should not continue to keep Yao Yao here.
"Then let's talk about it tomorrow." Shui Yichen said with a cold face.
"This official takes his leave." Liu Zhanhu and the others bowed and retreated. Not to mention that the heavenly concubine was a woman, they were also very tired after spending a day in the hall.
Huangfu Chen nodded gently to Ye Zhen and retreated.
"General, please stay. I have something to say to you." Ye Zhen asked Shui Yichen to stay.
Shui Yichen's eyes flashed. He turned to look at Ye Zhen. "What else does the heavenly concubine want?"
Huangfu Chen paused for a moment, but he still left the hall.
After everyone else left, Ye Rou said to Shui Yichen, "General, Miaomiao is already 16 years old. She's at the marriageable age. I want to be a matchmaker. What do you think?"
The moment Shui Yichen heard that it had something to do with Shui Miaomiao, he immediately understood what was going on. The light in his eyes dimmed. "Zhao Tianji looked for you?"
Ye Zhen said, "No. Why do you think Zhao Tianji doesn't deserve Miao Miao?"
"Nowhere!" Shui Yichen said expressionlessly.
"…" This rejection was too quick! "But Miaomiao likes him. You can't just break them up, right?"
Shui Yichen said, "Zhao Tianji's temperament is erratic. I can't be sure if he will be good to Miaomiao, so I can't let Miaomiao marry him yet."
Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows. "I don't think so. When Zhao Tianji was in China, you asked him to stay by Miaomiao's side to protect her. He saw Miaomiao at her fattest and accompanied her through her most difficult times. Later, he followed her to the capital. Along the way, he was with Miaomiao. If he didn't like Miaomiao, why would he follow her all the way?"
"He followed Miaomiao all the way. Should Miaomiao marry him?" Shui Yichen looked at Ye Zhen and asked.
This question made Ye Zhen's heart jump. She frowned and said, "Miaomiao and Zhao Tianji like each other. What's the point of not letting Miaomiao and Zhao Tianji be together? Do you want to force Miaomiao to elope with him?"
Shui Yichen looked down at Ye Zhen, his eyes cold and probing. "You didn't teach her to use this method to force me to agree, did you?"
How did he know? If it weren't for Shui Miaomiao crying to her early in the morning, saying that Shui Yichen didn't agree with her marrying Zhao Tianji, she really couldn't do anything about it. Ye Zhen said that if Shui Yichen didn't agree, she would leave the capital with Zhao Tianji for a few days. She was just saying it to comfort Shui Miaomiao, not really asking her to elope.
"Do I need to teach you? If you have to object, I will give them a marriage in a few days. Then you won't be able to object even if you want to. "Ye Zhen snorted.
"Heavenly concubine!" Shui Yichen emphasized, "Miaomiao is my sister."
"She also called me sister for two years." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Shui Yichen's face was gloomy. If following her all the way meant that there were feelings for her, then did she have feelings for him when he gave up everything in China and came here with her?
"In fact, Zhao Tianji is really good. Why don't you like him?" Ye Zhen said helplessly, "At the beginning, he was anxious to leave China, not because he didn't like Miaomiao. Anyone who wants to stay in a strange country needs courage. Moreover, Miaomiao's illness has nothing to do with Zhao Tianji. Even if there was no Zhao Tianji at the beginning, she would still eat and drink and fall ill. That is the root of the illness, not …"
"If Miaomiao marries Zhao Tianji, she will never return to China in the future." Shui Yichen interrupted Ye Zhen directly.
Ye Zhen froze for a moment and looked up at him. "You … want to go back?"
Shui Yichen didn't speak but just looked down at Ye Zhen. He had asked himself this question several times. Did he want to return to China? After all, his world was in Nanzhou. However, he didn't have the slightest intention to go back and continue to be a businessman. When he left China, he told himself that he was doing it for Miaomiao. If Miaomiao married Zhao Tianji, then his excuse of doing it for Miaomiao would no longer be justified.
"I'm just thinking about it." Shui Yichen whispered.
Ye Zhen wanted him to stay, but she didn't want to force him.
"Mother, mother …"
The crisp and tender voices of Ming Xi and Ming Yu came from outside. Ye Zhen looked at Shui Yichen. "You know, if you want to leave, I won't make it difficult for you."
That's because she's willing to leave.
Shui Yichen was thinking about it when he saw Mo Rongzhan walk in with the two children in his arms. When he saw Ye Zhen, his eyes seemed to light up all of a sudden, like the brightest star in the sky, shining into his eyes.
"I thought you were done." Mo Rongzhan saw that Shui Yichen was still here and only looked at Ye Zhen with a faint smile.
Ming Xi and Ming Yu came down from his arms and ran towards Ye Zhen. "Mother, Father made us a wooden horse."
"Supreme General." Ming Xi walked rather slowly and looked like a little adult. He first cupped his hands and bowed to Shui Yichen. His mischievous look made him look especially adorable.
Shui Yichen smiled and patted Ming Xi's head. He was not interested in watching the warmth of their family reunion here. "I'll go back first. Don't interfere in Miaomiao's affairs."
