Murong Ke would definitely not agree to this matter easily. The Empress Dowager had been personally sent to the temporary imperial residence by Mo Rongzhan. Furthermore, the Empress Dowager had gone too far back then. If she returned to Jingdou, would she cause as much trouble as before?
Ye Zhen did not want to think only of the disadvantages of the Empress Dowager. At least she had been good to her.
When she entered the palace as a medical maid, the Empress Dowager really loved her and protected her from being bullied by Lu Wushuang.
"Is the Empress Dowager seriously ill?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
"I heard that he is suffering from dementia. He is always muddle-headed and doesn't know what to do. His Majesty has already sent an imperial physician to the temporary imperial residence. He will know the specific situation soon." Lu Shiming said, "It's just that … no matter what, the Empress Dowager is wrong. The King of Qin is her biological son, and Your Majesty can't ignore her. People will criticize her."
Ye Zhen considered that the people of the world did not know why the Empress Dowager was sent to the palace. Even if they heard about it, they would have forgotten it after so many years.
The world is full of parents! These words were enough for the scholars to find all kinds of reasons to plead for the Empress Dowager.
Moreover, Murong Ke was now in a high position. If he ignored the Empress Dowager, the infamy of being unfilial would be enough to leave a stain on his name.
"What did the emperor say?" Ye Zhen felt that Murong Ke didn't care much whether others praised or scolded him. Maybe he really wouldn't bring the Empress Dowager back.
Lu Shiming shook his head and said, "His Majesty feels that the temporary imperial residence is more suitable for recuperation."
As expected! Ye Zhen smiled bitterly, "When I go back, I will discuss it with the prince and let him decide for himself."
"Yes, that's for the best." Lu Shiming nodded. The father and daughter had already arrived at the Chuihua Gate. A maid had already gone to report to the Pei family.
Just as he reached the upper room, a little boy jumped out of the door and shouted at Lu Shiming, "Grandpa is back! Grandpa is going to hunt birds with me!"
"Brother Lan, don't mess around!" Lu Shiming scolded and said helplessly to Ye Zhen, "This child is spoiled."
Ye Rou laughed. "Don't you know how to tease children? Didn't you often say that I was naughty when you were young? Brother Lan has grown a lot taller. "
Lu Shiming looked at his daughter's jade-white face and sighed. So many years had passed unknowingly. "So you still know that you were naughty when you were young."
"If the child is not naughty and sits foolishly all day, then you have to worry." Ye Zhen winked at Lu Xianglan.
"What kind of nonsense is this!" Lu Shiming glared at her.
Ye Zhen smiled and pinched Lu Xianglan's little face. "Next time, let cousin Mingxi take you to play."
"Last time, cousin brought me to the hot spring villa and roasted a pig with him." Lu Xianglan's eyes lit up. He really liked being with his cousin. There would definitely be something new every day.
"Take the young master back." Lu Shiming rubbed his brows helplessly and said to the maid beside him.
Lu Xianglan cried out, "Grandfather, you promised to take me to hunt birds."
"You go talk to your mother. I'll take this little devil to the woods in the back." Lu Shiming said.
Ye Zhen entered the upper room and saw Pei Shi and Su Xiaoxiao sitting in the hall talking.
"Grandaunt is back!" Su Xiaoxiao saw Ye Zhen's figure first and said to Pei Shi with a smile.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were discussing Lu Shiming's birthday next month. Seeing Ye Zhen come in, Pei Shi beamed with joy. "I was wondering when you would come. If you don't come today, I will go to Prince Qin's Mansion tomorrow."
"I miss mother so much. Naturally, I came to see you as soon as possible." Ye Zhen took Pei Shi's hand affectionately and smiled sweetly.
"Mother has been thinking of you since early morning." Su Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
Pei Shi gently tapped Ye Zhen's forehead. "Why didn't you come to me yesterday? Why didn't you come yesterday?"
"It was late at night when I was free yesterday. How could I disturb you?" Ye Zhen smiled and turned to look at Su Xiaoxiao. "Sister-in-law seems to have lost a lot of weight."
"Since Xiaoxiao gave birth to the second child, her body is far from what it used to be. She has taken a lot of tonics, but it still doesn't help at all." Pei Shi said, "You should take care of your sister-in-law when you have time."
Su Xiaoxiao smiled. "This is a small matter. Mother and Wangfei haven't seen each other for a long time. I will prepare tea and snacks. You two have a good talk."
When Su Xiaoxiao left, Pei Shi took Ye Zhen into the inner room.
"Do you know about Ming Yu?" The smile on Pei Shi's face had disappeared and her face was full of sadness. "How can you go to the wilderness like this? It's too dangerous. When you find her this time, you'd better take her with you. There is no decent elder in the palace to teach her the rules. How dare those teachers and aunts speak harshly to her, let alone those concubines? They are clearly praising her to death. Since I knew that Ming Yu was missing, I haven't been able to sleep well at night. What is she thinking? She doesn't care about her own safety for the sake of Yan Xiaoliu. She doesn't think about how worried we are about her."
Ye Zhen listened silently and nodded. "When Ming Yu comes back, no matter how unwilling she is, I will let her live in Prince Qin's Mansion. Anyway, she doesn't like me. I can play the role of a bad cop to suppress her."
When Pei Shi heard this, she became even more worried. "How can that work? You mother and daughter have been separated for so many years. You have to ease the relationship first. Hey, don't force her. Persuade her."
"Mother, in fact, it's all my fault. If I hadn't been separated from her for so long, she wouldn't have relied on Yan Xiaoliu at the beginning. Yan Xiaoliu grew up with her, and their relationship is different from ordinary people." Ye Zhen said, not telling Pei Shi what she had explained to Jin Shanshan. She knew that Pei Shi would certainly disagree, so she might as well follow her mother's wishes first.
"Yan Xiaoliu is a good boy. I am distressed that he is injured." Pei Shi said. "Well, let's bring Ming Yu back first."
Ye Zhen said, "I'm afraid it won't be so easy to bring her back. With Ming Xi by her side, you don't have to worry too much."
Pei Shi glared at her. "Ming Xi doesn't have to worry. My two grandsons are worried."
"Yes, yes, in fact, I am also worried." Ye Zhen hurriedly smiled, knowing not to annoy Pei Shi at this time.
"I think you have a big heart. Maybe you think it's better for Ming Yu to go out." Pei Shi said angrily.
Sure enough, no one knows a woman better than a mother! Ye Zhen laughed a few times. "Mother, when will eldest brother come back?"
"He should be coming back soon." Pei Shi said, "Don't change the subject. I haven't finished yet. You won't leave soon after coming back, will you?"
"No, I will stay this time." Ye Zhen said. They still had many things to solve in the capital first.
Pei Shi let go of Ye Zhen and looked at her with a smile. "That's more like it."
