After determining the time of departure, Ye Zhen spent the past two days explaining the court's affairs. She handed over the court's affairs to several ministers in the cabinet to handle together. As long as all six of them had the seals, they could issue orders. If they couldn't solve the problem, they could send the memorial to the Jin Kingdom for her to decide.
After a few busy days, she was finally able to set foot on the road back to the Jin Kingdom with Mo Rongzhan.
"Finally, I can go back." Ye Zhen and Mo Rongzhan were in the same carriage. Ming Xi and Ming Yu were taken by Hong Ying in the rear carriage.
Mo Rongzhan felt inexplicably comfortable about the word 'go back'. In her heart, the Jin Kingdom was her real home. "Mmm."
Ye Zhen remembered that she would live in the palace after returning. She leaned on his shoulder. "Is your harem still the same? You didn't choose any beauties to enter the palace while I was away, did you? "
"What do you want my harem to look like?" Mo Rongzhan leaned against the wall of the carriage and closed his eyes slightly, listening to her whisper in his ear. He was happy and relaxed, especially her jealous tone, which made him feel even more amused.
"It's best if I'm alone." Ye Zhen whispered, "Our Yuan Kingdom is monogamous."
Mo Rongzhan chuckled and opened his eyes to look at her. "I have only you."
Ye Zhen actually knew that he would not ask for any more beauties to enter the palace. She just wanted to seek confirmation, especially when it came from his mouth. "Then … what about Hu Yue 'er?"
When she left, Hu Yue 'er was still his Empress Shu. Although she let Hu Yue' er get up to protect her, she was really unhappy for a while.
"Why mention her?" Mo Rongzhan's tone softened. If Hu Yue 'er hadn't gone to Chengde Villa, Yao Yao would not have had a miscarriage. He didn't execute her for her sake.
"I didn't have a difficult birth because of her …" Ye Zhen whispered. Although she didn't like Hu Yue 'er, she didn't want Hu Yue' er to be executed because of her.
Mo Rongzhan lowered his eyes to look at her. "Even if that's the case, she didn't go to Chengde Villa with good intentions. I gave her fame and status, and allowed her maiden family to follow in wealth and splendor. This was already the greatest reward I could give her. She was insatiably greedy, so she can't blame anyone else."
"Ah Zhan …" Ye Zhen knew that he was speaking the truth, and felt that Hu Yue 'er did not deserve to die.
"I didn't kill her," Mo Rongzhan said.
Ye Zhen smiled and nodded. Hu Yue 'er said that she was not worthy to stand beside Mo Rongzhan. Now, she wanted to let Hu Yue' er know that no one was more suitable to stand beside Mo Rongzhan except her.
"Don't your ministers have any objections to following us back to Jin Kingdom?" Mo Rongzhan didn't want her to continue talking about Hu Yue 'er, so he turned his attention elsewhere.
"Shui Yichen originally wanted to go to the Jin Nation with you." Ye Zhen said with a smile, glancing at him from the corner of her eyes. "You and he just don't like each other."
Mo Rongzhan sighed softly in his heart. She still couldn't see Shui Yichen's ulterior motives for her. She was always slow in this regard. "I don't like him."
Ye Zhen smiled and shook her head. "In fact, I hope that Master will go back with us, but he is right. Yuan Kingdom has not been founded for a long time. I should not leave at this time. With Master staying, I can also rest assured."
"I will send people to Meisha Port to prepare a ship. Let's go to Meisha Port first. Haven't you always wanted to use Meisha Port to form an alliance with Jinkou City? Let's go and have a look. "Mo Rongzhan said.
Ye Zhen's eyes lit up. She really wanted to go to Meisha Port. "Are we going to Jinkou City from Meisha Port?"
"Do you want to go to Feiyu Manor on the way?" Mo Rongzhan asked in a low voice. He was the man beside her, how could he not know what she was thinking? Since knowing that her mother was from the martial arts world, she had been asking people to inquire about it. She even wrote to Ye Chunnan, but there had been no reply. She must want to know what kind of person Madam Yu was and why she married Ye Yiqing.
"You want to take me to Feiyu Manor?" Ye Zhen sat up straight in surprise. Although she wanted to know about her mother's past, she also knew very well that going to Fei Yu Manor was an extremely unrealistic approach. After so many years, her mother never mentioned her maiden family, not even her father. Ye Zhen knew very well that there must be a reason for this. But what was the real reason? No one could tell her except herself. Ye Zhen's heart was filled with curiosity.
She felt that Ye Chunnan must not know much.
Mo Rongzhan whispered, "It's naturally not possible to go with your real identity. There are so many things in the martial arts world. I want to take you there in the future."
Ye Zhen hugged his arm and said, "I don't know if there will be such an opportunity in the future. Let's take this opportunity to go to Feiyu Manor."
"We'll pass by it on the way back. We can go there." Mo Rongzhan said. There should be no danger in going to Feiyu Manor. As for other things in the martial arts world, he did not want to intervene at this time, lest the three of them be in danger.
Being able to go to Feiyu Manor, Ye Zhen's mood improved a lot.
However, for Ming Xi and Ming Yu, it was the same wherever they went. After leaving the palace, they were obviously in a cheerful mood, especially Ming Yu, who had been chattering non-stop. Although they did not remember much about their past, they did not like staying in the palace all the time. There was no one around to play with them at all. Except for their father who occasionally took them out of the palace, they felt bored most of the time.
"Yan Xiaoliu, why haven't you spoken?" Ming Yu was a little tired from watching by the window. Finally, she sat back in her seat and asked Yan Xiaoliu, who was silent, while drinking the water handed over by Hong Ying.
"I … don't know what to say." Yan Xiaoliu was a little restrained by Ming Yu's question.
Ming Xi glanced at them and whispered to Ming Yu, "This is Yan Xiaoliu's first time out of the palace. He must not be used to it. Don't scare him."
It was unknown if Mo Rongzhan's education of Ming Xi was different, but Ming Xi was becoming more and more mature. At such a young age, he already knew how to take care of others' emotions. Moreover, he was no longer like Ming Yu, who always liked to talk non-stop.
"When did I scare him?" Ming Yu pouted. "He was the one who scared himself."
Yan Xiaoliu lowered his head. He was indeed a little scared. He knew nothing about the past, nor did he know who he was. Now that he had left the palace, he did not know what he would face next.
"Don't worry, we are here to protect you." Ming Xi said to Yan Xiaoliu.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Yan Xiaoliu showed a shallow smile, and his whole face instantly became brighter.
Ming Yu leaned over to look at him. "And me, I will protect you too."
"Thank you, Princess." Yan Xiaoliu's eyes were filled with a warm smile, a tooth mark looming on his fair face.
