Lei Yingchun ordered for the four gates of Luopei City to be opened. He also posted a notice in the city, announcing that the ban on Luopei City would be lifted and that the citizens would no longer be restricted from entering and exiting the city. Moreover, taxes would be waived for three years. The imperial court would also help rebuild Luopei City and the citizens' homes.
To Luopei City's commoners, this was definitely good news. The massacre that they had been worried about would not happen, and they would be exempted from taxes for three years. The Imperial Court would once again treat them as citizens. However, they were not as grateful to Shui Yichen, and they felt that this was all because of the Heavenly Concubine.
If the Heavenly Concubine hadn't treated their illnesses, they wouldn't have been able to live until now.
"Where's the Heavenly Lady?" Those who wanted to go to the general's house to tell Ye Zhen the good news found that Ye Zhen and her husband were nowhere to be seen.
"Is it over at the plaza? Quick, go and look for it," someone shouted.
Lei Yingchun walked over with large strides. He was here to find the Heavenly Concubine, but he saw a lot of people gathered in front of the General's Mansion.
"What happened?" He walked over and asked with a frown.
"Milord, we're looking for the Heavenly Consort. She's gone." The commoners still recognized Lei Yingchun. Although they did not like this lord who had almost slaughtered them, they did not dare to be impudent in front of him.
Lei Yingchun's expression changed as he strode into the general's residence. "Heavenly Consort! Heavenly Consort! "
He walked around the general's residence, but he really couldn't find the Heavenly Consort. "Quick, go find the Heavenly Consort and wait at the city gate. Don't let her leave."
Unfortunately, the whole Luo Mei City wanted to find Ye Zhen and Mo Rongzhan, but no one could find them.
It was unknown when they had quietly left Luo Mei City.
"How did they leave?" Lei Yingchun angrily asked a medicine boy who lived in the General's Mansion.
The medicine boy was shocked. "The Heavenly Concubine said that the epidemic in the city is almost over, so she distributed the medicine yesterday. I haven't seen them since this morning …"
"Do you know where they went?" Lei Yingchun asked with a frown. He really didn't understand what the Heavenly Consort was thinking. She had saved so many people. Could it be that she was only treating them because she couldn't stand by and watch? Did she not have any other motives?
They had actually left. Could it be that they had returned to Jin Nation?
Lei Yingchun sent people out of the city to find them, while he went to tell Shui Yichen about this matter.
When Shui Yichen learned that Ye Zhen had left Luo Mei City, he was not surprised at all, as if he had expected it.
"It's indeed her doing." Shui Yichen smiled faintly. "There's no need to look for her. You won't be able to find her."
"Emperor, it seems like the Heavenly Consort only wants to save people and has no other intentions." Lei Yingchun said.
"We naturally know. Otherwise, what do you think she wants to do?" Shui Yichen asked indifferently. He would rather Lu Yaoyao had a purpose in coming to Luopei City.
Lei Yingchun lowered his head in embarrassment, feeling guilty for having once doubted the Heavenly Consort's intentions.
"What about Lu Tingzhi?" Shui Yichen asked.
"Oh, he hasn't come out of his room. Your Majesty, how do you feel after drinking his medicine?" Lei Yingchun asked.
Shui Yichen rubbed his chest. "I don't feel any tightness in my chest anymore. His prescription … seems to be correct."
"There are people in this world whose medical skills are even more exquisite than the Heavenly Consort's?" Lei Yingchun cried out in shock.
"Hmph, who do you think this recipe belongs to?" Shui Yichen snorted. She was most likely the one who had left it in Anping Town.
"Could it be the Heavenly Consort's? Could it be that Lu Tingzhi was sent by the Heavenly Consort? "Lei Yingchun asked in surprise." The Heavenly Consort is concerned about Your Majesty. "
Shui Yichen snorted coldly. "How could she go out of the city and tell Lu Tingzhi that we only fell ill a few days ago and that Lu Tingzhi wouldn't arrive in three days from Anping Town? What do you think?"
"That Lu Tingzhi is not the Heavenly Consort's person …" Lei Yingchun scratched his head. He hoped that the Heavenly Consort and Shui Yichen would never become enemies. Otherwise, he wouldn't know who to help.
"Set off for the capital tomorrow." Shui Yichen said. "Take Lu Tingzhi with you."
Lei Yingchun was stunned. "Yes, Your Majesty."
… …
… …
Ye Zhen left Luopei City in the middle of the night. Knowing of Lu Tingzhi's arrival, she knew that Shui Yichen's illness could be completely cured. However, she was not sure whether Shui Yichen would keep Lu Tingzhi.
"Do you think Shui Yichen will believe Lu Tingzhi?" Ye Zhen asked Mo Rongzhan, who was sitting on the shaft of the carriage.
"He won't." Mo Rongzhan replied faintly. No emperor would believe a person who appeared inexplicably.
Ye Zhen frowned. "Maybe he will put Lu Tingzhi in an important position in the future."
"Is there a problem with Feng Chunsong's prescription?" Mo Rongzhan asked with a smile.
"There's no problem. It's just that the dosage is wrong. That's a prescription for later use. Lu Tingzhi's prescription is for curing the disease." Ye Zhen said, "If Shui Yichen becomes a tyrant in the future, I will be the culprit for saving him today."
Mo Rongzhan said lightly, "Then kill him with your own hands."
"Forget it, just for Miao Miao's sake." Ye Zhen comforted herself. "Let's not talk about him. Let's see if Lu Tingzhi has the ability."
"Do you believe him?" Mo Rongzhan looked back at her. He knew that the reason she placed Lu Tingzhi in Yuan Country must be for her daughter.
Ye Zhen smiled. "I believe him. He helped me when I was in the capital. He is not the same as Lu Lingzhi."
Mo Rongzhan stopped asking.
"Are we going to the wasteland now?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
"No, Mingxi is enough." Mo Rongzhan said, "Do you want to go back to the capital or somewhere else?"
Ye Zhen thought for a moment. "Let's go back to the capital like this. We will pass through the disaster-stricken areas on the way. We can also do something within our power."
"Yao Yao." Mo Rongzhan reached out to her and took her to sit beside him. He whispered, "This disaster was not caused by you. You don't have to keep thinking about compensation."
He knew that she was a soft-hearted person. The damage caused by this disaster made her feel guilty. She felt that it was their arrival that caused the collapse of the heavenly law. In fact, it had little to do with them.
"I didn't." Ye Zhen laughed, trying to hide her thoughts.
Mo Rongzhan knew her like the back of his hand. How could he not know? "Even without us, the heavenly law will still collapse. Maybe it will be more serious. Sometimes the existence of the three continents is not so peaceful."
"Did you say that the Great Deity has returned?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
"Yao Yao, I am in the human world." Mo Rongzhan said helplessly. How could he know the whereabouts of the Great Deity?
Ye Zhen leaned on his shoulder. "Let's go back to the capital. We don't have much time. Let's go and accompany Ming Yu."
"Hmm." Mo Rongzhan put his arm around her waist. "You have done a lot, and you have done a good job."
