Compared with a few days ago, Zhao Yong's complexion was significantly better, unlike a few months ago when he looked like he was about to die.
"Heavenly Concubine, the capital has been very lively recently." When Zhao Yong saw Ye Zhen, he temporarily put down Zhao Rao's matter. He was also very interested in the recent liveliness of the capital.
Yesterday, he had specially looked through the contents of the new law and was once again impressed by Lu Yaoyao. She was really not afraid of offending the interests of the original Dongqing aristocratic families. There were probably not many who could accept withdrawing from the new law just like that.
"I didn't expect you to still be in the mood to watch the fun." Ye Zhen sneered at him. What Lu Wushuang said that day reached her ears word for word. His harem should not be calm. She heard that the Marquis of Anning, Cheng Zheng, had gone back to investigate the matter.
Zhao Yong looked at her. "Did you do it on purpose?"
Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows. "What's wrong with me doing it on purpose? I don't understand."
"Let my daughter see Lu Wushuang." Zhao Yong said.
"I didn't ask your daughter to look for Lu Wushuang. I thought she had deep feelings for Lu Wushuang, so I turned a blind eye and let her enter the harem. Why? Is there something wrong with that? Is it because the princess begged you to save Lu Wushuang? "Ye Zhen asked with a smile.
Zhao Yong listened to her serious nonsense and snorted coldly. He didn't believe that she didn't know what Lu Wushuang said that day! "Then I should thank the Heavenly Concubine?"
"Well said. I wonder what Your Majesty thinks about the matter we talked about before?" Ye Zhen said with a smile. She wanted to use Jinkou City to drive the previously abandoned Meisha Port of the White Dragon River. If she could form an alliance with the Hengwan Port of the Qi Kingdom, it would be easier.
Zhao Yong chuckled. "Heavenly Concubine still hasn't forgotten this matter."
Ye Zhen said with a faint smile, "How can I easily forget such an important matter? Your Majesty, there is no loss for your Qi Kingdom if you form an alliance with our Yuan Kingdom. The port of Hengwan is not prosperous. Maybe after forming an alliance with us, it can prosper."
"The Heavenly Consort really says everything." Zhao Yong smiled. In fact, he had to admit that what she said was very reasonable.
"Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't form an alliance with the Yuan Nation. Although your illness has improved, I still have to say that you don't have much time left." Ye Zhen said in a low voice.
Zhao Yong sighed, "You don't have to keep reminding me. I can form an alliance with Yuan Country, but not with Jin Country."
The Qi State and the Jin State had already been allies for three years. Hearing Zhao Yong's words, it seemed that the Qi State did not intend to ally with the Jin State anymore. "Is it because of Zhao Ning?"
"Mo Rongzhan schemed against us for your sake, we can ignore it. However, we have always owed Zhao Ning a debt. Now that she is living such a grievance in Jin Country, we cannot pretend that this never happened." Zhao Yong's expression turned cold at the mention of Zhao Ning.
"I understand what you mean. When I arrive at the Jin Nation, I will definitely give you an explanation." Ye Zhen said. Even if Zhao Ning's identity as the princess of the Kingdom of Qi was ignored, she had saved Mo Rongzhan and herself.
"I believe in the Heavenly Consort." Zhao Yong said.
Ye Zhen said, "Today, I brought Duanmu Xiu into the palace with you. Where is he now?"
"Outside." Zhao Yong said.
Hong Ying went out and invited Duanmu Xiu in. Ye Zhen told him all the acupuncture techniques and acupoints, asking him to perform acupuncture on Zhao Yong every three days. With her prescription, as long as Zhao Yong's condition was maintained for a year, he would at least be able to ensure that Zhao Yong would not have a relapse again.
Duanmu Xiu looked at Ye Zhen's acupuncture points and techniques and was secretly surprised. He had also performed acupuncture on Zhao Yong before, but the acupuncture points were conservative and he didn't dare to insert the needle too deeply. Therefore, the effect was not great. Looking at the Heavenly Concubine's technique, it was like seeking survival in the midst of danger. But it was this way that Zhao Yong's headache was suppressed.
"Valley Master Duanmu, do you understand?" Ye Zhen looked at Duanmu Xiu and asked.
"This old man admires you." Duanmu Xiu bowed to Ye Zhen, sincerely admitting that Ye Zhen's medical skills were indeed above his.
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "I just happened to learn this acupuncture method."
After the acupuncture, Zhao Yong fell asleep on the soft couch. Ye Zhen told Duanmu Xiu some more details. "… There is one more thing I want to ask Valley Master Duanmu."
"Heavenly Consort, please ask. This old man will tell you everything he knows." Duanmu Xiu had just learned a lesson and admired Ye Zhen in his heart.
"I want to ask Valley Master Duanmu about a person." Ye Zhen said in a low voice. Knowing that Zhao Yong could not hear her, she lowered her voice as much as possible. "That person's name is Lu Lingzhi. He was seriously injured in Anhe City a few years ago and was rescued by your son. Now his whereabouts are unknown. I wonder if Valley Master Duanmu has seen this person?"
Duanmu Xiu pondered for a moment. Isn't this Lu Lingzhi the eldest brother of Imperial Consort Lu? Last time, his son asked him to treat Lu Lingzhi. By the way, the Heavenly Consort's surname is also Lu, and she seems to be Lu Lingzhi's cousin.
Duanmu Xiu, who has been living in seclusion, did not know about the grievances between Ye Zhen and Lu Lingzhi. He only thought that Ye Zhen was concerned about her family.
"This old man treated Lu Lingzhi's injury. At that time, his injury was too serious. My son was helpless, but …" Duanmu Xiu recalled seeing Lu Lingzhi's injury at that time. He knew that Lu Lingzhi was Imperial Consort Lu's eldest brother. Initially, he did not want to treat his injury, but Lu Lingzhi was able to survive such a serious injury. If not for his inhuman willpower, he would not have been able to do so. "Although Lu Lingzhi's external injuries were healed later, his internal injuries were too serious. This old man was helpless. If the Heavenly Consort had been by his side at that time, perhaps everything would have been different."
A chill flashed in the depths of Ye Zhen's eyes. "You mean, Lu Lingzhi's injury has been cured?"
"Alas, it was only external injuries. Lu Lingzhi's meridians were seriously injured, and his internal energy was destroyed. It was a pity that Lu Lingzhi's injuries were too serious, affecting his future heirs. Moreover … when this old man left the medicine valley, he was certain that he would not live for long." Duanmu Xiu said.
Affecting his future heirs? Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows slightly. The meaning of this sentence was a little subtle. It seemed that Lu Lingzhi's injury was not ordinary. "Valley Master Duanmu, do you know where Lu Lingzhi is now? Could he be in the medicine valley? "
Duanmu Xiu shook his head. "This old man has not seen Lu Lingzhi for two years. If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid he is no longer in this world …"
No longer in this world? Ye Zhen did not believe that Lu Lingzhi would die so easily.
"Thank you, Valley Master Duanmu." Ye Zhen nodded with a smile. Even if Lu Lingzhi was not dead, he would not be too happy. If he could not have children, did that mean he could not have children?
What good news!
