When Ye Zhen finished speaking, she left. Murong Ke stood in the same place and looked at her back silently. The scene of meeting her until now appeared in his mind little by little. It felt like a lifetime ago, but it also seemed like it happened yesterday. All the memories related to her were so deep and vivid. They were the most colorful memories of his life.
Murong Ke didn't know how long it took for him to return to his senses, but he could no longer see Ye Zhen's figure.
He laughed at himself. Knowing her feelings for Mo Rongzhan, he still didn't give up. Even she couldn't stand it anymore. His persistence must have made her uncomfortable.
He knew a long time ago that she was a woman who was easily softhearted.
Unfortunately, she was never softhearted towards him.
Even if she showed a trace of hesitation towards him, he would risk his life to keep her by his side.
Unfortunately, she had always been cruel to him.
"Father …" Mingyu didn't know when she came, but she looked at him carefully outside the door.
Murong Ke suppressed the sourness in his heart, and the sadness in his eyes was replaced by calmness. "Mingyu, come here."
Mingyu came to Murong Ke's side with a smile and took the initiative to take his hand. "Father, that … is it gone?"
"Did you have fun at the temple fair yesterday?" Murong Ke took Mingyu inside and asked Fu De to fetch her favorite snacks.
"It was fun." Mingyu's eyes were bright. "My son made several wishing lamps for me. I put them in the wishing pond. I wished that father would be healthy and live a long life with me."
Murong Ke chuckled. "Someone else should accompany you for the rest of your life."
Mingyu's face changed. "Doesn't father want Mingyu?"
"No, I am your father. In the future, when you get married, you will be someone else's little girl." Murong Ke rubbed Mingyu's head affectionately. Mingyu was his niece, and after getting along with her for several years, he had regarded her as his own daughter.
"I just want to be with father." Mingyu said seriously, then hesitated. "And Yan Xiaoliu."
Murong Ke chuckled. "Did you see Yan Xiaoliu yesterday?"
Mingyu nodded gently. "I also met Mingyu."
"Who is Mingyu?" Murong Ke raised his eyebrows.
"She's an orphan. My uncle brought her back. Now she's living in … King Qin's Mansion. She's always been with my brother," Ming Yu said.
How could Ye Chunnan bring an orphan back and let her live in Prince Qin's Mansion? Most likely, this orphan had something to do with Ye Zhen.
"Did you stay at King Qin's Mansion yesterday?" Murong Ke asked with a smile.
Ming Yu glanced at him and nodded lightly. She buried her face in Murong Ke's palm. "Imperial Father, am I too bad?"
"Why do you say that?" Murong Ke asked softly.
"Actually, I understand in my heart that there must be a reason why they left. But now that they're back, I just feel sad in my heart. I just don't want to let them live well …" Ming Yu said in a low voice. She was afraid that her father would think that she was a bad child and wouldn't love her anymore.
"Ming Yu feels wronged. You just want to let others know that you feel wronged. You don't really hate your parents, right?" Murong Ke asked with a smile.
"Yes …" Ming Yu whispered.
Murong Ke said with a smile, "No one is willing to hate Ming Yu. Whether it is your imperial father or your parents, they all love you the most. You are willing to spend the night in King Qin's Mansion, which proves that you have forgiven them, right?"
Ming Yu hesitated for a moment and nodded gently. "But I still … don't know how to get along with them."
She still couldn't call them father and mother.
"It doesn't matter. Take your time." Murong Ke said. This was already a good start.
Ming Yu smiled shyly. "Well, today … today, mother asked me if I wanted to go with them to Qi Kingdom. She said it would be dangerous."
Going to Qi Kingdom was indeed dangerous! From Murong Ke's standpoint, he doesn't want Ming Yu to take risks, but since Ye Zhen has proposed this matter to Ming Yu, she must be able to ensure her safety. More importantly, she wants to use this time to repair the mother-daughter relationship with Ming Yu.
"Does Ming Yu want to go?" Murong Ke asked in a low voice.
Ming Yu glanced at Murong Ke. "No. If I go, won't there be only father in the palace? I want to stay with you. "
Murong Ke's eyes were filled with a warm smile. "There are other people in the palace."
"But none of them can make father smile." Ming Yu said seriously. "Father usually doesn't smile."
"Is that so?" Murong Ke was stunned. He didn't know that he usually didn't smile.
Ming Yu said, "Anyway, I've thought it through. I won't go to Qi Kingdom. I want to stay with father."
Murong Ke's heart was filled with warmth. "Then don't you want to live in King Qin's Mansion?"
"Why should I live in King Qin's Mansion? Does father not want me to live in the palace? "Ming Yu cried in horror.
"Of course not. This will always be your home." Murong Ke said. He thought she wanted to be with her family.
Ming Yu said in a low voice, "That's right. This is my home. I will never leave Imperial Father."
Murong Ke patted Ming Yu's head. "You are my daughter, always."
"Well." Ming Yu smiled happily. "By the way, father, there is something I want to ask you."
"What is it?" Murong Ke asked.
Ming Yu looked around and made sure there was no one else. Then she asked in a low voice, "Father, do you believe that there is a phoenix in this world?"
Murong Ke was slightly stunned. A phoenix reborn from nirvana?
"Yes." Murong Ke said with certainty. He knew that Ye Zhen was a phoenix reborn from nirvana.
She was his phoenix, the only queen he wanted.
Ming Yu's eyes lit up. "Have you seen a phoenix?"
"No." Murong Ke smiled and shook his head. "I've never seen one. Why do you suddenly ask this? Has Ming Yu seen a phoenix?"
"It's not that …" Ming Yu recalled Ming Xi's instructions. She knew that this matter could not be spoken of, "I just wanted to ask. Today at the temple fair, I saw someone make a lantern with a phoenix on it. It was very pretty."
Murong Ke said with a smile, "Ming Yu is a phoenix."
Ming Yu smiled. "I'm not. I'm Princess Ming Yu."
As the father and daughter were talking, Ford's voice came from outside.
"Come in." Murong Ke said lightly.
Ford hurried in. "Your Majesty."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Murong Ke asked with a frown.
"Lord Zhang reported that Lord Teng's nephew was … killed by His Highness on the street." Ford cried out in alarm.
Needless to say, this His Highness was Ming Xi.
Ming Xi killed Teng Ye's nephew? Murong Ke frowned. "What happened?"
"Is it that Teng Fei again?" Ming Yu cried. "Yesterday's lesson was not enough. Today, he went to provoke Ming Xi?"
