Wang Qu was stunned. He had come because he didn't know what to do. Moreover, Jin Lou and the others had hinted to him that he should come and find out what was going on. Now that Wang Ye asked this, he didn't know how to answer.
"Your Highness …" Wang Qu coughed lightly as he mulled over how to ask.
Mo Rongzhan's handsome face was indifferent. He pursed his thin lips and glanced at Wang Qu. He knew all too well what this former subordinate of his was thinking. Not only him, even if he had never met Jin Lou and the others, he knew what kind of answer they wanted to obtain.
"When I first came back, I said that Ah Ke will be the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom in the future." Mo Rongzhan said lightly, "I am only the King of Qin."
Surprise flashed through Wang Qu's eyes. He had heard of this matter, but he had thought that no one would be willing to give up their position as the emperor. "Your Majesty, the brothers are still loyal to you."
Mo Rongzhan raised his eyebrows lightly. "Are you not loyal to Ah Ke?"
"No … That's not what I meant." Wang Qu laughed dryly.
"That's good." Mo Rongzhan said, "Let Jin Lou and the others guard the borders of the Jin Kingdom. What you are guarding is the country and its people."
Wang Qu straightened his back. "Your Highness, this general understands your meaning."
Mo Rongzhan nodded. "You haven't had dinner yet, right? Let's eat first."
"Oh, okay." Wang Qu rubbed his stomach. He was indeed hungry. After knowing that Mo Rongzhan was back, he didn't even eat before coming to the Hidden Guards Institution. It was already dark and his stomach was already growling.
Not long after Wang Qu left, Ye Zhen came back.
"Did you drink?" She walked into the study. There was a faint fragrance of wine in the air. She looked at Mo Rongzhan in surprise. He hadn't drunk wine in a long time, and he was alone. Where did he get the mood to drink wine?
"Wang Qu drank it." Mo Rongzhan's voice was low and sweet, his eyes deep and gloomy as he looked at Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen walked up to him, stood on tiptoe and sniffed his lips. "You drank too. I told you not to drink now."
Mo Rongzhan's thin lips curled up slightly. Lowering his head, he covered her pink lips and sucked on the tip of her little tongue. After a while, he said hoarsely, "I drank fruit wine."
"That's still wine," Ye Rou snorted.
"He went to the clinic?" Mo Rongzhan tactfully changed the topic. Ever since his Sea of Qi was injured, she had been very nervous about his body. No matter how he explained that his Sea of Qi had recovered, it was useless.
It was no longer easy to fool her now.
His Sea of Qi had recovered, but compared to his cultivation in the Upper Gods Mainland, it was still a lot worse. No wonder she was always so nervous and didn't even allow him to use his spiritual power.
Ye Zhen sat on Mo Rongzhan's lap. She whispered, "I've seen a lot of people with burns. I have to see them again tomorrow. I guess I will go to the clinic often these days. You can play by yourself. Have you seen the two assassins? Are they still not confessing? "
Mo Rongzhan's eyes were cold as he told Ye Zhen about the two assassins. "… Let Shen Yi bring them to King Qin's Mansion tomorrow. You can take a look at them."
"I've never heard of such a poison. Does the legendary Poison Doctor really exist?" Ye Zhen asked in surprise. She had been practicing medicine for so many years, but she had never seen such a powerful poison, let alone heard of anyone who could concoct such a poison.
Mo Rongzhan said, "Let's talk about it after you see them tomorrow."
"By the way, when are we going to see the place Mingxi mentioned?" Ye Zhen asked.
"No hurry, we can go in two days." Mo Rongzhan said.
Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows. "You don't want to go alone, do you? Let me tell you, you must go with me."
Mo Rongzhan chuckled. He really wanted to go alone. It seemed that she already knew him too well. "Yes, my lady."
"I don't know if there are really big monsters. If they are really so powerful, what should we do?" If their cultivation was not restricted, it would be better. But now, their cultivation was less than 30% of its original strength. It was already very difficult to deal with a fifth-order monster, let alone a big monster.
Mo Rongzhan said, "The big monsters have been sealed for several years. It is not so easy for them to come out. Even if they come out, they will not hurt mortals. This used to be their place, and mortals used to worship them as protectors."
Ye Zhen was very surprised when she heard this. She had never heard of monsters being worshipped as protectors before. "What are the top ten monsters?"
"I only know that the first is the flying dragon. You mortals seem to call it the flying serpent." Mo Rongzhan said.
"Ah?" Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment. The flying serpent turned out to be a big monster. "I thought the flying serpent only appeared in legends …"
"Any legend has a basis. It's just that after thousands of years, the legend is far from the truth." Mo Rongzhan said. Don't mortals still regard the people of the other two continents as immortals?
Ye Zhen thought of the danger facing the human continent at this time and felt a burst of fear. She shrank in Mo Rongzhan's arms. "I hope the human continent will not suffer another catastrophe."
Mo Rongzhan hugged her and patted her back gently. "It won't."
…
…
The next day, Shen Yi had not yet sent the people to the Lu family. The news of her return should have reached the Lu family. If she did not go to see her parents first, she would be missed for a long time.
She had just arrived at the gate of the Lu family's house when she met Lu Shiming, who had just returned from the morning court.
"Father!" Ye Zhen got out of the carriage and looked at him with a smile.
Lu Shiming froze for a moment, then a smile appeared on his serious face. "Yao Yao, when did you come?"
"I just came and was about to go in to see my mother when I met you outside the door." Ye Zhen said with a smile. "How has Father been for the past six months?"
"What can be bad?" Lu Shiming said with a smile. "Come on, let's go in. Your mother talked for a long time last night. If you didn't come today, she would have gone to Prince Qin's Mansion in person."
Ye Zhen smiled when she heard this. "Good."
"Didn't the prince come with you?" Lu Shiming asked.
"No, he still has something to do." Ye Zhen said. "Is the eldest brother back?"
Lu Shiming smiled. "He's back. He was called by the emperor to talk and will come back later."
Great, she just so happened to have something to ask Lu Xiangzhi.
"Yao Yao, there's something I want to tell you first." Lu Shiming suddenly said to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen looked back at him. "Father, what's the matter?"
"During the morning court today, Prime Minister Ruan submitted a memorial saying that the Empress Dowager in the palace was seriously ill. The emperor should take the Empress Dowager back to the capital." Lu Shiming lowered his voice.
"…" Ye Zhen was slightly stunned. She had almost forgotten the existence of the Empress Dowager.
Her memory was suddenly pulled away. When she first entered the palace, she remembered the Empress Dowager's love and love for her. At that time, the Empress Dowager truly loved her.
"What did the emperor say?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
Lu Shiming said, "The emperor has not agreed yet."
