Mo Rongzhan understood what Ye Zhen meant. She could not let Murong Ke get what he wanted. However, although she did not say it, he knew that Murong Ke must have entered her heart.
When she was in the Western Liang Priest Hall, Murong Ke did everything for her. Anyone else would have taken it to heart. It was impossible not to feel anything at all.
However, he also clearly understood that Yaoyao's words meant that Murong Ke was nothing more than that in her heart.
"Go to sleep, we have a busy day tomorrow." Mo Rongzhan carried her to the washroom to freshen up and let her rest in his arms.
She still had to see Zhao Yong tomorrow. She really needed to recuperate. Ye Zhen kissed Mo Rongzhan on the cheek and soon fell asleep in his arms.
Mo Rongzhan's faint eyes looked up, not knowing what he was thinking. After a long time, he fell asleep.
The next day, when Ye Zhen woke up, it was already late in the morning. It was rare that no one came to urge her to go to the front hall today. It seemed that there was nothing important. She was not in a hurry to go to the imperial study. She dawdled slowly, listening to the laughter of Ming Yu and Ming Xi coming from outside. Time seemed to be stretched, and the air was filled with a warm smell.
"Your Highness, the emperor of Qi has entered the palace and is waiting outside the Qian Long Hall." Hong Ying came in and whispered to Ye Zhen.
Oh, yes, I almost forgot. I still have to see Zhao Yong. Ye Zhen stood up. "Then let's go and see him."
Although it was Zhao Yong who sent Lu Wushuang to the capital, she had to give him an explanation for locking her up. Otherwise, it would seem a little unkind.
Ye Zhen walked out of the bedroom and saw Mo Rongzhan playing with the children outside. She laughed and said, "You have been playing with them for a few days. Master is still waiting for them to go to class."
Mo Rongzhan raised his eyebrows. "Can't I teach them how to read?"
"Father, I want to learn martial arts." Ming Xi cried out in a childish voice.
Ye Zhen walked to Mo Rongzhan's side and tidied up his clothes. "It would be good if you really have time to teach them, but do you have time? They will be by your side in the future. Are you still worried that you won't have time to accompany them? "
She knew what Mo Rongzhan was thinking. He hadn't been by his children's side for two years. He had missed their birth and learning to speak, so he wanted to make up for those two years. He couldn't wait to be with them every day.
"I'll send them to Huangfu Chen's place in a while," Mo Rongzhan said with a smile. "Are you going to the imperial study?"
"Zhao Yong is here. I want to see him." Ye Zhen glared at him. "You stopped others from telling me that Zhao Yong was looking for me. I haven't settled this account with you yet."
Mo Rongzhan snorted coldly. "Ignore him."
Ye Rou chuckled. "If I could ignore him, what do you think I would want?"
"Yaoyao …" Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice.
"You don't have to persuade me to return Lu Wushuang to him. Whether it is Lu Wushuang or Lu Lingzhi, I don't want to let them go. I can't cure Zhao Yong's illness. I can only let him live for two more years. It doesn't matter."
Mo Rongzhan rubbed her head helplessly. "I'll listen to you."
Ye Zhen smiled and walked to the front with Hong Ying. She asked someone to bring Zhao Yong to the main hall where she would meet him.
It had only been more than half a month since she last saw Zhao Yong. Ye Zhen felt that his complexion seemed to have worsened.
"The Heavenly Concubine is finally willing to see me." Zhao Yong looked at the woman in front of him with a smile. He hadn't seen her for a few days, but he felt that she was more beautiful than ever.
Thinking that Mo Rongzhan could have such a rare beauty in the world, Zhao Yong felt jealous and envious for the first time.
"Is Your Majesty used to living in Honglu Temple?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile, pretending not to understand the complaint in Zhao Yong's words. He was questioning her for refusing to see him the other day.
Zhao Yong smiled faintly. "It's not bad, but it's a little unpleasant. I heard that the Heavenly Concubine took away my imperial concubine."
Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows and looked surprised. "Someone is talking nonsense in front of Your Majesty. When did I take away your imperial concubine?"
Still pretending to be innocent! The smile on Zhao Yong's mouth deepened. "So, if my imperial concubine was not taken away by the Heavenly Concubine, then she disappeared inexplicably in the capital?"
"Oh, it's really hard to say. I haven't been in power for a long time. The capital is in chaos everywhere. The kidnappers especially said that your imperial concubine is beautiful and her clothes are expensive. That's not good." Ye Zhen said in surprise.
Listening to Ye Zhen talk about the kidnappers, Zhao Yong felt even more amused. For the first time, he found that Lu Yaoyao had such a cunning side. "Heavenly Concubine, Imperial Concubine Lu is my favorite. If she was really abducted in the capital, then I will send someone to find her in the capital."
Ye Zhen chuckled and glanced at Zhao Yong. "I advise Your Majesty not to have too many good thoughts. With your illness, you can't touch women unless you want to die faster."
"So, the Heavenly Concubine is willing to treat my illness?" Zhao Yong asked faintly.
How could she say no? He had threatened to find Lu Wushuang in the capital. She had already found an excuse for him. She would just pretend that Lu Wushuang was taken away by kidnappers. He could issue a warrant for her arrest. Anyway, she would not hand over Lu Wushuang.
"I told you before, your illness cannot be cured, it can only be slowed down." Ye Zhen said.
Zhao Yong nodded gently. "I understand."
"Please sit down." Ye Zhen pointed to the seat on the side and motioned for Zhao Yong to take a seat. She lifted her skirt and walked over slowly. "So many days have passed. Is there no news of Lu Lingzhi, Your Majesty?"
"If there is news of him, I will let someone tell the Heavenly Concubine as soon as possible." Zhao Yong said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter if there is no news of Lu Lingzhi." Ye Zhen looked at Zhao Yong with a smile. "I think there is another condition."
Zhao Yong raised his eyebrows. "I thought I had already fulfilled the conditions that the Heavenly Concubine said at the beginning."
"You only fulfilled one condition." Ye Zhen gently placed her hand on his pulse. "Since you failed to hand over Lu Lingzhi to me, then open the port of Zhe River to the Yuan Kingdom, so that our ships can stop at the port to do business."
The ports of the Qi Kingdom were never open to Dongqing and the Jin Kingdom.
Zhao Yong glanced at Ye Zhen with a faint smile. His eyes finally fell on her white and slender fingers. Her fingers were placed on his pulse. His life seemed to be in her hands. "Heavenly Concubine, do you think I will agree?"
"For the sake of your Qi Kingdom, you will agree." Ye Zhen said lightly, "Unless the next new emperor of the Qi Kingdom can have your courage and be able to suppress other countries for so many years."
His two bastard sons could keep the Qi Kingdom from being swallowed up, let alone suppress it.
"Let me think about it." Zhao Yong whispered.
"Okay." Ye Zhen nodded with a smile and removed her hand from his pulse. "I will prescribe you medicine."
