Mo Rongzhan was enjoying the little girl's initiative to throw herself into his arms when he suddenly heard her frightened and nervous voice. His eyes turned slightly cold, and his arms around her waist tightened sharply. He asked hoarsely, "Did Lu Lingzhi touch you?"
Ye Zhen rubbed against his arms a few times. "He said he doesn't want to be my big brother. What does he want to be? Does he want to expose my identity? "
"He dare not expose your identity. Don't worry." Mo Rongzhan held the little girl in his arms and patted her shoulder gently. "Even if your real identity is known by everyone, I will not let you be wronged."
"Give Lu Lingzhi a task. He lives in the village at the foot of the mountain. I don't want to see him." Ye Zhen said. Thinking that she would soon leave the Jin Kingdom, she no longer rejected Mo Rongzhan's intimacy.
Mo Rongzhan liked to see her act coquettishly, especially when she whispered in his arms. His whole heart softened. "You don't like Lu Lingzhi so much? He is still your eldest cousin. "
"I don't like him. Last time Lu Wushuang framed me, he wanted me to be a scapegoat. He is not my brother. Why should I like him? If it were my brother, he would definitely protect me. "Ye Zhen said indignantly, finding a reason for herself to hate Lu Lingzhi.
"Lu Xiangzhi?" Mo Rongzhan still had a little impression of her brother. He was this year's third rank.
Ye Zhen shook his hand. "Do you agree to take Lu Lingzhi away or not?"
Mo Rongzhan pressed her under his body. "It doesn't matter if he is here. Anyway, you will return to the capital soon."
"What do you mean?" Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment. She didn't understand what Mo Rongzhan meant. Unfortunately, he did not allow her to ask more. He bowed his head and kissed her lips.
Mo Rongzhan licked her lips and said hoarsely in her ear, "Don't worry, I'm here for everything. No matter who it is, I won't let you get hurt." "Don't worry, I'm here for everything. No matter who it is, I won't let you get hurt.
"You are the only one who hurt me." Ye Zhen's eyes were watery as she glared at him angrily.
Mo Rongzhan chuckled, thinking that she was talking about him kissing her all the time. "I'm like this because I like you."
Ye Zhen reached out and scratched him weakly.
"I'm going back." Mo Rongzhan helped her put on her underwear and his palm stroked her smooth back. "You obediently stay here with the Empress Dowager. In two days, if the Empress Dowager returns to the palace, you can go back with her."
"Let's go." Ye Zhen lazily closed her eyes. She was already very tired today, and after being disturbed by him for a while in the evening, she was now too sleepy to open her eyes.
Mo Rongzhan carried her onto the bed and covered her with a soft blanket. His thin lips kissed her earlobes for a while before he said reluctantly, "I'm leaving then."
Ye Rou didn't even make a sound.
"Why are you still so delicate?" Mo Rongzhan shook his head in amusement. After covering her with the quilt, he quietly left the villa under the cover of the night.
Eunuch Fu was about to doze off at the foot of the mountain. Seeing that the sky was getting darker and that dawn was about to arrive, he finally waited for his master to arrive.
"Let's go back." Mo Rongzhan got into the carriage, leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Fu hurriedly followed and got into the carriage. "Your Majesty, have you seen … the Princess?"
The corner of Mo Rongzhan's mouth rose slightly and he gave a faint hum.
No wonder he seems to be in a good mood. Eunuch Fu covered his mouth and smiled, not daring to disturb Mo Rongzhan's rest.
… …
… …
The next day, Mo Rongzhan ordered Lu Lingzhi to enter the palace.
Since Lu Lingzhi was poisoned, he had not attended the morning court. Although he had the status of a marquis and a great general, he could only stay at home to recuperate as long as the emperor did not let him regain power.
Lu Lingzhi, who was in the manor, received the oral order. There was no happy smile on his face. He asked Leng Mei, who was standing behind him, coldly, "Did anyone go to see the Third Miss last night?"
Leng Mei whispered, "This subordinate saw a carriage parked at the foot of the mountain. When I wanted to approach the villa, I was almost discovered, so I did not dare to go in rashly."
"What was the carriage like?" Lu Lingzhi's heart sank. The answer was on the tip of his tongue, but he was not willing to admit that things did not develop according to his expectations.
"It was a bit bigger than a normal carriage, and it looked completely black." Leng Mei thought for a moment. Although it was night, under the moonlight, it could still be seen that the color of the carriage was darker than a normal carriage.
It was the emperor's carriage! Why would the emperor come to Chengde Villa in the middle of the night and park the carriage at the foot of the mountain? Who did he go to see?
Lu Lingzhi's heart felt like it was being grasped by a large hand. The pain was so painful that he almost suffocated. He remembered that the emperor had appeared in Yaoyao's room at night. The emperor had come to find Yaoyao … Wasn't he going to appoint a marriage for Yaoyao? Wasn't it already decided to appoint an empress? Why was he still entangled with Yaoyao?
"Marquis, when are you leaving for the capital?" Leng Mei asked softly.
"I'm going to see Yaoyao first," Lu Lingzhi said in a low voice. Thinking of the possibility that the emperor still did not intend to release Yaoyao, he had the urge to take Yaoyao and leave.
But he couldn't … He still had to take care of the lives of the Lu family.
"Yes, Marquis." Leng Mei looked at Lu Lingzhi's back with pity, not knowing how to help him.
At this moment, there was only one thought in Lu Lingzhi's mind. He did not want to lose his beloved again. He did not want his beloved to shed tears for another man. He had to persuade Yaoyao to not agree to anything Mo Rongzhan wanted.
Thinking that Yaoyao might have already had a marital relationship with the emperor, Lu Lingzhi felt as if a fire was burning in his chest, burning away his reason.
When he arrived at Chengde Villa, he happened to see Yaoyao and Ye Yaoyao coming out with their horses. He reluctantly showed a smile. "Yaoyao!"
Ye Zhen looked up and saw him, her face changed slightly.
"Who is he?" Ye Yaoyao looked at Lu Lingzhi suspiciously and approached Ye Zhen with some fear.
"Yaoyao, I have something to say to you." Lu Lingzhi came over, as if he didn't notice Ye Yaoyao next to him, he directly grabbed Ye Zhen's hand.
Ye Zhen looked at him coldly. "Eldest cousin, what do you want to say?"
"You come with me!" Lu Lingzhi's voice was tight and his eyes were dark as he looked at her.
When Ye Yaoyao saw Lu Lingzhi's appearance, she instinctively hid behind Ye Zhen.
"Miss Ye, do you know him?" Ye Zhen turned her head and asked. Ye Yaoyao was timid, but she would never be so afraid of a person.
"I …" Ye Yaoyao glanced at Lu Lingzhi cautiously and shook her head vigorously. "I don't know him."
How could she know such a terrible person? She felt terrified at a glance.
"Come with me." Lu Lingzhi grabbed Ye Zhen's hand and walked to the other side.
