Ye Zhen had never met Zhao Rao, but she knew from others that the princess of the Kingdom of Qi was a very smart and powerful woman. Although she was only a little girl, she was able to use the First Prince in the palm of her hand to fight against the Second Prince. Moreover, the Qi courtiers' evaluation of the princess was extremely high.
It was not easy for a princess who attached so much importance to power to get a good evaluation from the courtiers.
She had always wanted to know what kind of person Zhao Rao was. If it wasn't for Zhao Rao wanting to make use of Zhao Ning, Zhao Ning wouldn't have agreed to Mo Rongzhan's request. She wouldn't have married Mo Rongyi either. This Princess of Qi had indirectly influenced her life.
"Zhao Yong seems to have only one daughter, Zhao Rao?" Ye Zhen asked Mo Rongzhan, "Have you seen her?"
Mo Rongzhan shook his head lightly, "I've only heard of her, but never seen her. Zhao Yong must have a purpose for letting her come to the capital. Don't underestimate this woman."
He did not think that Ye Zhen was not as smart as Zhao Rao, but that the two of them lived in different environments. Zhao Rao grew up in the harem and experienced all kinds of intrigues and intrigues from an early age. Ye Zhen, on the other hand, was spoiled and raised in the palm of Ye Yiqing's hand. Zhao Rao was too smart and understood human nature. Otherwise, she would not have such a good network in the Kingdom of Qi.
"Of course, I will not underestimate her." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "I'm just curious about what kind of woman she is."
Mo Rongzhan nodded, "You will see her in a few days."
Zhao Rao would definitely attend the Nation Founding Ceremony.
"There will be too many people at that time. How can we see her clearly?" Ye Zhen said, "By the way, today we discussed whether to communicate with Jinkou City. If we set up a port, the merchant ships of Jinkou City can dock at the port of Bailong River."
Mo Rongzhan smiled and nodded. They had already talked about this matter. He naturally agreed to re-ally with the Yuan Kingdom. In the beginning, he decreed that Dongqing's merchant ships were not allowed to dock at Jinkou City. Now that it was Yao Yao, there was nothing to say.
"Shui Yichen will definitely oppose it." Mo Rongzhan said lightly. Even if she had not said it, he could already guess the outcome.
Ye Zhen looked at him in surprise. "How do you know?"
"You said that Shui Yichen is a merchant in the Hua Nation. He should be very clear about the necessity of the port's existence. He's afraid that he will be controlled by the Jin Nation in the future." Mo Rongzhan laughed coldly in his heart. He was very clear about what Shui Yichen was thinking. Wasn't he hoping that Yuan Country would keep a distance from Jin Country? Was he afraid that when Yuan Country and Jin Country merged in the future, his existence as the Great General would no longer be of use?
"His worries are not without reason." Ye Zhen nodded gently and immediately felt the man beside her hold her hand tightly. She snuggled against Mo Rongzhan's arm and said in a soft voice, "Shui Yichen is from China. He doesn't know what happened between us before. Moreover, he doesn't understand Jinkou City. He will understand in a few days."
Mo Rongzhan snorted coldly, "Has he forgotten that you are still our Empress?"
"Does it matter if he remembers or not? It's fine as long as I know. " Ye Zhen coaxed Mo Rongzhan. "Anyway, this matter will not be decided until after the founding ceremony. How to reopen the port has not been decided yet."
…
…
The matter of the port was temporarily put aside by Ye Zhen. After the founding ceremony, she would discuss this matter again. Seeing that the founding ceremony was about to begin, more and more distinguished guests came to the capital. Everyone was also busy with their own affairs.
Ye Zhen finally met Lu Shiming and his family who had come from Jin Country.
Pei Shi saw her daughter in a coma in childbirth with her own eyes, so when she saw Ye Zhen standing in front of her, she could not help but burst into tears. "You stinky girl … You scared me to death. How could you be so cruel to leave for two years!"
"Mother …" Ye Zhen looked at Lu Shiming for help. She was unconscious at the time and did not know that she was taken away. "Am I not back?"
It was rare that Lu Shiming did not help Ye Zhen. When he learned about his daughter's dystocia, he was also sad for a long time. Although she was not his biological daughter, she was raised in the palm of his hand. How could he bear to let her suffer, not to mention the sudden news of her death?
Pei Shi scolded, "Why didn't you come back for the past two years? When you come back, you have to fight a war … What if you get injured? You are already a mother, why don't you let people worry at all? "
Ye Zhen didn't know how to stop Pei Shi from crying. She looked at Lu Xiangzhi and blinked, begging him to help.
"Mother, it's a good thing that my sister is back. Don't just cry. Let's sit down first and listen to what happened in the past two years." Lu Xiangzhi doted on his sister and helped.
"You shut up!" Pei Shi glared at Lu Xiangzhi. "Don't call me before you get married."
"…" Lu Xiangzhi was speechless for a while. How did he provoke his mother's anger again?
Ye Zhen looked at Lu Xiangzhi in surprise. "Eldest brother is not married yet? Isn't he already engaged to Miss Su? "
This was touching a sore spot! Lu Xiangzhi glared at Ye Zhen angrily. "Let's talk about this later. Yao Yao, didn't you give birth to two children? Where are they? Bring them to Father and Mother to see. "
At the mention of her grandson and granddaughter whom they had not yet met, Pei Shi immediately lost all her anger and even stopped crying. "Yes, where are Ming Xi and Ming Yu? Why don't I see them?"
Ye Zhen said with a smile, "They just came back from the study. The emperor took them to play kite. I have sent someone to bring them here."
"You came back with two children. Did the emperor … say anything?" Pei Shi asked in a low voice.
"What did he say? He was happy." Ye Zhen laughed. She knew what Pei Shi was worried about. At the beginning, there were rumors in the capital that were unfavorable to her. She also said that her children were not Mo Rongzhan's. When she gave birth to the children, she suddenly came back with two children. Someone in the Jin Kingdom would certainly make irresponsible remarks.
Pei Shi wanted to say something more, but she had already heard the childish and crisp laughter of the children outside. She immediately suppressed all her words.
Mo Rongzhan came in with a child in each hand.
"This subject greets the emperor." Lu Shiming immediately stood up and saluted, but his eyes were straight at Ming Xi and Ming Yu.
"We are all family. Don't be too polite. Sit down and talk." Mo Rongzhan said with a smile and put the two children down. "Go and salute grandfather and grandmother, and uncle."
Ming Xi and Ming Yu had long heard about Lu Shiming's family from Ye Zhen. They knew that they had two grandfathers, grandmother and uncle. The two came to Lu Shiming and his wife hand in hand and saluted respectfully. "Greetings, grandfather and grandmother."
When Pei Shi saw the two children, she immediately felt pain in her heart. She held them in her arms and called them sweethearts.
