As Cheng Zheng's death became known to more and more people, the news of Mo Rongzhan and Ye Zhen's return seemed to spread throughout the world overnight. The legendary couple disappeared for four years. When everyone thought they were dead, they reappeared and killed the second emperor of the State of Qi.
Some people hated their return, while others rejoiced.
Early the next morning, the people of Yuan Kingdom found that the statue outside the city gate had returned to its original state. It was no longer as lifelike as before. They originally thought that a disaster was about to befall them. It didn't take long for them to hear the news of the heavenly concubine's return. They cheered one after another, feeling that the heavenly concubine was their patron saint. Otherwise, how could the statue have changed so much in a few days?
It must be because of the heavenly concubine's magical power.
Ye Zhen originally planned to go out for a walk in the capital, but after seeing the reaction of the people, she dared not go out. If she was recognized, there would be too much of a stir.
She didn't want to go back to the palace.
"Mother, Master Huangfu is here." Ming Xi walked in from outside the yard and said to Ye Zhen who was standing on the steps.
Ye Rou raised her eyes and looked over. A tall and elegant figure walked into her line of sight. He was still as elegant and refined as ever. His eyes that were as gentle as water looked at her with a faint smile.
"Master …" Ye Zhen smiled and clasped her hands in greeting.
"Yao Yao, you don't seem to have changed at all." Huangfu Chen smiled and looked at Ye Zhen softly. She was really the same as he remembered. The little girl who stood in front of him and begged him to teach her divination had lost her previous uneasiness and resentment. She had become confident and powerful, but her appearance did not seem to have changed.
Ye Zhen smiled. "Master is the same."
Mo Rongzhan came out of the house. He couldn't see Huangfu Chen, but he could feel his arrival.
"Ah Zhan …" Huangfu Chen was stunned when he saw Mo Rongzhan. Yao Yao gave him the same feeling, but at the first sight of Mo Rongzhan, he clearly felt different. Mo Rongzhan's whole body exuded an indifferent and cold aura, making people feel more afraid to approach him than before.
"Mother, Master also brought a guest." Ming Xi said, pointing to the figure still standing outside the yard.
Ye Zhen walked down the steps and saw a slender figure hesitating behind Huangfu Chen. It was a completely strange woman. She looked young and her eyes were as restless as an elk's. She was as beautiful as a porcelain doll.
"She is …" Ye Zhen was stunned and looked at Huang Fuchen in surprise.
Huang Fuchen said helplessly, "I saved her in the forest. She lost her memory and has been following me. I saw that she had nowhere to go, so I took her in. Her name is Ah Bu."
"Ah no?" Ye Zhen looked at the woman in surprise. The name was really strange.
Hearing Ye Zhen's voice, Ah Bu immediately hid in Huangfu Chen's arms.
Ye Rou stared blankly for a moment. She saw that Huang Fuchen did not push Ah Bu away and instead comforted her in a low voice. This was the first time she had seen Huang Fuchen treat a girl like this.
"Let's go inside." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Ah Bu followed Huangfu Chen closely and was very vigilant of the others.
"She …" Ye Zhen looked at Huang Fuchen in confusion when she didn't speak.
"Can't talk." Huang Fuchen said in a low voice. He only knew how to pronounce the word 'no', so he gave her the name 'Ah Bu'.
Ye Zhen nodded gently. Thinking that this was Huang Fuchen's business, she no longer paid attention to the girl. Anyway, she looked very well-behaved. As long as she was by Huang Fuchen's side, she would be quiet as if she didn't exist.
"How have you been these four years?" After entering the house and sitting down, Huang Fuchen asked Ye Zhen in a low voice.
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "There are good and bad, but we are all back in the end. That's good."
Although she didn't say it explicitly, Huang Fuchen could guess that they must have experienced a lot of hardships in another place.
"When I just entered the city, I heard people talking about Cheng Zheng's death." Huang Fuchen looked up at Ye Zhen. "What happened?"
"Cheng Zheng captured Zhao Ning and threatened Ah Yi. He could do anything he wanted, but he shouldn't have used such means." Ye Zhen said.
She could understand Cheng Zheng's ambition to remove obstacles for Zhao Rao, which was the same as what they wanted to do for Ming Yu. However, his means were wrong, so she killed him.
Huang Fuchen frowned. He didn't think that Ye Zhen's actions were bad, but the emperor of the Kingdom of Qi would not let this matter rest.
"Don't mention Cheng Zheng anymore. Anyway, he has already been killed. How can he be revived? Master, why have you been living in seclusion for the past few years?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
"I'm just living in a slightly more secluded place. It's not considered seclusion." Huang Fuchen smiled faintly. "I've always liked peace and quiet."
Ye Zhen and Huang Fuchen had known each other for many years. She knew that he was a person who stood aloof from worldly affairs. Shui Yichen had been showing off his abilities for the past few years. Huang Fuchen choosing to avoid him was a good thing for everyone.
At the very least, he wouldn't divide the officials of the Yuan Kingdom into two factions.
When there were opinions, there would be disputes. Naturally, there would be people who would take sides.
Huang Fuchen looked at Mo Rongzhan. "What happened to Ah Zhan's eyes?"
"Poisoning." Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice.
"Same as before?" Huang Fuchen was stunned. He remembered that Mo Rongzhan's first blindness was due to poisoning.
Ye Zhen knew that Huang Fuchen was proficient in medicine. "Take a look at Ah Zhan. I've already given him quite a lot of medicine, but he still hasn't recovered."
Ye Zhen had treated him with the spiritual spring water in the beginning. Initially, it was able to expel the poisonous gas, but recently, it seemed to have no effect at all. Ye Zhen was worried that he would be like this forever.
Huang Fuchen went over to examine Mo Rongzhan's eyes.
Mo Rongzhan subconsciously wanted to avoid his touch. After recovering Emperor Mo's memory, his obsession with cleanliness became even more serious.
"What's wrong?" Huang Fuchen didn't know about his weird obsession with cleanliness and thought that he was feeling unwell.
"Nothing." Mo Rongzhan said faintly and asked Huang Fuchen to examine his eyes. Although he knew that it wouldn't have any effect, he was very clear that it wasn't so easy to cure the Jiao Dragon's poisonous gas in the human world.
Huang Fuchen looked at Mo Rongzhan's eyes and was surprised to find that his eyes were actually grey. He had no idea what kind of poison caused this.
"How is it?" Ye Zhen asked anxiously.
"I have no clue." Huang Fuchen shook his head. Mo Rongzhan's pulse was calm, and there were no signs of poisoning at all. It was just that his eyes couldn't see. Perhaps … the poison had been removed long ago, but his eyes were completely poisoned and could no longer see.
Ye Zhen sighed, but she didn't look desperate. "It's okay. Take your time. It will be cured eventually."
Huang Fuchen glanced at her, not having the heart to hurt her.
"Hmm." Mo Rongzhan held her hand and smiled faintly.
At this time, the voice of a servant came from outside. It was said that several people outside wanted to see Ye Zhen.
