Princess Furong!
Although the Empress's decree had not yet been issued, Ye Zhen knew that she would be different in the future. Last time, she refused the princess because the status of the princess was far from enough to help her achieve her goal. But the princess was different. Perhaps she should change her way of revenge.
Originally, she thought that after becoming a female medical official, she would be able to get in touch with the Empress Dowager and gain the trust of the Empress Dowager. At the same time, she would be able to understand the situation of the ministers in the court, especially those ministers who were the backbone of the court. They usually asked imperial physicians to treat them. If she became a princess, would she still be able to become a female medical official?
Ye Zhen wanted to destroy Mo Rongzhan's Jin Kingdom very much, but she knew that it was more difficult than ascending to heaven. Her goal for Lu Lingzhi and Lu Wushuang was clear. Only for Mo Rongzhan … She still didn't know what to do to relieve the resentment in her heart.
"Congratulations, Miss Lu."
While Ye Zhen stood by the lake in contemplation, Xu Huiru came to her side.
The Empress Dowager and Old Madam Lu felt tired after walking for a while. Now they were resting in the pavilion. Ye Zhen saw a few herbs by the lake that she needed. After informing the Empress Dowager, she came to pick them. Thinking of her identity as a princess, she could not help but feel emotional. But she did not know why Xu Huiru came.
Along the way, she saw how Xu Huiru tried to please the Empress Dowager.
"Consort Xian." Unlike others, Xu Huiru had been in contact with Ye Zhen. She was one of the people who understood Ye Zhen. She didn't want to be seen by others. She didn't want to be seen through by others.
"This is the second time we've met, right? The first time I saw you in the academy, I was really shocked." Xu Huiru's attitude was gentle, completely different from the aloof and cold attitude she had displayed in the academy.
Ye Zhen knew that she was so polite to her because of the Empress Dowager. "Yes, when I first came to the capital, I heard of Imperial Concubine Xian's good name, but I didn't expect that the first time we met in the academy, I would scare you."
Xu Huiru took a deep look at Ye Zhen. "That's because you really look like an old friend of mine."
"Princess Qin?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile.
"You know?" Xu Huiru looked at her in amazement. Lu Yaoyao knew that she looked like Ye Zhen. How dare she approach the Empress Dowager like this and enter the palace?
Didn't she know that Ye Zhen was almost a taboo in the whole capital, and almost no one dared to mention her? Not to mention looking so similar to her.
Ye Zhen pretended to be puzzled. "Yes, someone told me that Consort Xian had forgotten that Mister Dan used to be Ye Zhen's teacher."
"Then you …" Xu Huiru wanted to ask her why she dared to be so close to the Empress Dowager, but she soon understood that the Empress Dowager might not have seen Ye Zhen. She heard that the Emperor had not seen Ye Zhen either. They didn't know that Lu Yaoyao looked exactly like Ye Zhen.
Xu Huiru chuckled. "You can rest assured that I will not tell anyone about this. In fact, there are not many people in the capital who have seen Ye Zhen. After Ye Zhen became the Princess of Qin, she rarely went out."
Ye Zhen felt funny in her heart. Did Xu Huiru want to curry favor with her and pull her closer? "Your Highness, thank you for keeping it a secret for me."
"Miss Lu … No, I should call you Princess. Your Highness, you don't have to stand on ceremony. We'll be a family in the future," Xu Huiru said with a smile.
Family? The smile on Ye Zhen's mouth deepened. This statement was a bit clever. "I dare not. Your Highness, you just heard from the Empress Dowager that I just have an additional title. In fact, it's no different."
Although she was a princess, she lived in the Lu family's residence before she got married. The Empress Dowager said that she would build a new Princess Residence for her. As for the Eldest Princess's residence, the Empress Dowager felt that it was inauspicious.
It would take at least two or three years for the Princess Residence to be built. Ye Zhen was also happy to live in the Lu family's residence.
Moreover, the Empress Dowager also said that if she still wanted to stay in the medical center, she could do so. After all, it was because of her medical skills that Mo Rongyi escaped death.
With the Empress Dowager's words, Ye Zhen couldn't think of any reason to refuse to be a princess.
"You will know in the future that being a princess is different." Xu Huiru said meaningfully.
Ye Zhen smiled. "Your Highness, the Empress Dowager seems to be looking for us. Let's go back to the pavilion."
Xu Huiru looked back and saw that Aunt Cheng was indeed looking at them, so she returned to the pavilion with Ye Zhen.
The Empress Dowager said to Xu Huiru with a smile, "The Emperor and Lord Xu are in the waterside pavilion in front. Consort Xu Xian, you go to the Emperor's side.
"Empress Dowager, this concubine will accompany you to continue enjoying the flowers." Xu Huiru's cheeks blushed. She knew that the Empress Dowager was giving her a chance to get closer to the Emperor, but she had to be reserved.
She still didn't understand what made the Emperor dissatisfied. Why didn't he let her sleep with him? Could it be that the emperor was giving him a warning?
The Empress Dowager smiled. "Aijia has Yao Yao here. You go."
When Xu Huiru heard the Empress Dowager say so, she bowed and retreated.
Ye Zhen looked at Xu Huiru's back lightly. Compared with Lu Wushuang, Xu Huiru was obviously much more cunning and resourceful. She used to think that the two were bound to become enemies, but now it seemed that Lu Wushuang was not Xu Huiru's opponent at all.
Seeing Xu Huiru being so loved by the Empress Dowager, Old Madam Lu felt sad. She was worried that Lu Wushuang's life in the palace would become more and more difficult.
"Yao Yao, come and sit beside Aijia." The Empress Dowager beckoned to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen sat down obediently. "Empress Dowager."
The Empress Dowager touched her head. "Yao Yao, tell me the truth. Do you like to come to the palace often to talk with Aijia in the future?"
"Yes." Ye Zhen nodded gently. "Don't think I'm annoying in the future."
Old Madam Lu glanced at her. Seeing this granddaughter, she was a little relieved. At least Shuang 'er would no longer think of Yao Yao leaving the capital.
This was a good thing.
The Empress Dowager looked at Ye Zhen and sighed. If Yao Yao did not look so much like Ye Zhen, she would be willing to help the Emperor. But she was afraid that the Emperor would be disgusted after knowing it in the future. Wouldn't that be letting Yao Yao repeat Ye Zhen's path?
She really couldn't bear it. If she didn't really love this girl, how could she have the heart to oppose her son?
Ye Zhen didn't know what the Empress Dowager was sighing about. She smiled and said, "Empress Dowager, I know there is a forest in the Hundred Garden. There will be many fruits in the trees. I'll pick some for you to taste."
The Empress Dowager was pleasantly surprised. "You know there are fruits in this forest?"
"I saw them when I came to the Hundred Garden last time." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Old Madam Lu shook her head and said, "I think you just can't sit still."
"Go, go." Aijia smiled and waved.
