The next day, Ye Zhen wanted to go to Ming Yu early in the morning, but she lingered at the gate of the courtyard, unable to summon the courage to walk in. She was afraid that Ming Yu would not want to see her, afraid that Ming Yu would show such strange and contradictory eyes to her.
"Yao Yao." She did not know when Murong Ke had appeared behind her and was looking at her with a burning gaze.
"Ah!" Ye Zhen turned her head, her eyes flashing with embarrassment. "I want to see Ming Yu."
Murong Ke's face showed a shallow smile. "She followed Lord Ye to the woods early in the morning. She shouldn't be back so early."
It turned out that she had already woken up.
Ye Zhen's face flashed a touch of loneliness. She remembered that Ming Yu liked to sleep late most. Every morning, she had to be urged three or four times to get out of bed.
"Lord Ye said that Ming Yu looks like you, that's why she likes to go hunting so much." Murong Ke whispered. He tried to control himself to look away from her, but after one look, he wanted to see her again. The more he looked, the more greedy he felt.
"Yes, I used to like it very much." Ye Zhen was in a low mood. She wanted to accompany Ming Yu to go hunting.
Murong Ke liked to see her bright and brilliant appearance. "Or, I'll accompany you to find them."
Ye Zhen's obscure eyes lit up, but she hesitated again. "Can I? Ming Yu doesn't want to see me very much. "
"She has a childish temper. It'll be fine when she figures it out." Murong Ke said with a smile. "Let's go pick a horse."
"Okay." Ye Zhen couldn't resist the temptation. She really wanted to accompany her daughter to hunt.
Murong Ke and Ye Zhen walked side by side. He glanced at her sideways. "Did you suffer a lot over there?"
"Actually, it's okay. At first, I didn't know anything, so I didn't encounter any hatred. It was only later that I met it." Ye Zhen said and briefly explained what happened. "Although I went through a lot of hardships, I finally came back."
She said it too lightly, but Murong Ke was shocked. He always felt that there were too many things she had not said.
"How did Ah Zhan's eyes get poisoned?" Murong Ke asked.
"We went through a lot of hardships on our way back. He was poisoned in order to let us come back smoothly." The scene of Mo Rongzhan fighting the flood dragon alone flashed in Ye Zhen's mind. At that time, she thought that he would rather stay to block the flood dragon.
What she wanted the most right now was to cure his eyes.
"Did he tell you about Yi?" Murong Ke asked in a low voice.
"I did." Ye Zhen nodded gently. "Let's go to the State of Qi to find Ah Yi. Zhao Rao and Cheng Zheng must think that we are dead. They won't expect us to go to the State of Qi, so it's easier to act. By the way, I want Ming Yu to go with me."
Murong Ke's dark pupils shrank slightly. "Go to the Qi Kingdom … with Ming Yu?"
Ye Zhen turned to look at him, "Only in this way can I spend more time with Ming Yu. I don't know how long I can stay with her. If possible, I hope to untie the knot in her heart through getting along with her, so that she won't resent me anymore."
"Ming Yu won't hate you." Murong Ke hurriedly said.
"She has a grudge." Ye Rou lowered her head.
Murong Ke's heart ached for her lonely look. He wanted to reach out and comfort her, but he didn't know what to say.
"Here we are," Ye Zhen said.
"Her Majesty?" Suddenly, someone called out.
Ye Zhen looked up. It turned out to be Song Jiong.
Song Jiong strode over and looked at Ye Zhen with joy. Then, he restrained himself and bowed to Murong Ke. "Your Majesty." He looked up and smiled at Ye Zhen. "Her Majesty."
"I'm not the Empress." Ye Zhen frowned at him. It would be misunderstood if he called her and Murong Ke like that.
"Huh?" Song Jiong laughed a few times. "I'm used to it."
Murong Ke looked at him indifferently. "Why are you here?"
"Your Majesty, this official … is here to hunt. Do you believe me?" Song Jiong said with a smile.
"Is there any news from Marquis Jingning?" Murong Ke asked lightly.
Song Jiong put away his mischievous smile. "There is news. The border of Yuan Kingdom is heavily guarded. They are very strict with our citizens who enter the country …"
After saying this, he immediately stopped and looked at Ye Zhen. He had almost forgotten that Lu Yaoyao was the Heavenly Concubine of Yuan Kingdom.
"Go back to the palace first." Murong Ke said lightly.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Song Jiong did not continue.
Ye Zhen asked doubtfully, "Aren't the Jin Kingdom and Yuan Kingdom allies?"
"Yes." Murong Ke nodded with a smile. It seemed that he didn't want to talk too much about the situation of Yuan Kingdom.
"Who is in charge of Yuan Kingdom?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice. When she left, Shui Yichen and the others managed the country together. She had been gone for three years and didn't know what had become of Yuan Kingdom.
People's hearts change.
Murong Ke knew that it was impossible to hide the situation of Yuan Kingdom at this time. "Shui Yichen."
"What about Huang Fuchen and the others?" Ye Zhen frowned.
"Huang Fuchen is not in Yuan Kingdom. The others … are just idle posts." Murong Ke stopped. "Yao Yao, don't go back to Yuan Kingdom."
Ye Zhen smiled. "Are you worried that I will be in danger when I go back?"
He was indeed worried. After all, Shui Yichen was very shrewd and most of the elite troops of Yuan Kingdom came from the sea. They all listened to Shui Yichen's words.
"Yes." Murong Ke nodded.
Ye Zhen smiled. "I won't take any risks."
"Let's go pick a horse." Murong Ke said.
"No need, I want this one." Ye Zhen pointed to a white horse that Mo Rongzhan gave her years ago.
Ye Zhen nimbly mounted the horse. "I haven't ridden a horse for a long time. I don't know if I'm rusty."
"There are no horses over there?" Murong Ke picked a black horse.
"No chance to ride a horse." Ye Zhen smiled. In the Xuantian Continent, she really didn't ride a horse.
They ran in the direction of the forest together.
Not long after entering the forest, Ye Zhen heard Ming Yu's crisp laughter.
Besides Ming Yu, Ming Xi and Fire Phoenix were here. Ye Yiqing and An Ge were talking on the other side. The two seemed to be chatting happily.
"Why don't you go over?" Murong Ke asked in a low voice.
"I'm afraid … if I go over, I will break the happiness between them." Ye Zhen looked at the happy smile on Ming Yu's face. This was the daughter she was familiar with. That smile was what she had missed for the past three years.
"Ming Yu and Ming Xi get along very well." Murong Ke said. "She hasn't forgotten."
Ye Zhen said, "I know …"
"Mother!" Ming Xi noticed Ye Zhen's arrival and waved at her from afar.
"Yao Yao …" Fire Phoenix called out. Just as she spoke, Ming Xi slapped her with his palm.
"Rude."
Fire Phoenix puffed her cheeks and glared at Ming Xi.
Ye Zhen saw the smile on Ming Yu's face gradually disappear.
"Ming Yu, mother is here. Let's go over. Mother's archery is very good." Ming Xi called out to Ming Yu, wanting to take her to Ye Zhen's side.
Ming Yu broke free from his hand and ran to Murong Ke. "Father."
