Mo Rongzhan strode out of the Emerald Flower Palace, his cloak fluttering in the wind. Eunuch Fu trotted behind him.
"Your Majesty, I have prepared the best horse for you along the way. You will be able to catch up with Third Miss Lu at the fastest speed." Eunuch Fu said hurriedly.
Mo Rongzhan's thin lips tightened. He didn't say a word. This was the second time he admitted defeat to her. He never thought that he would fall in love with a woman before, but now he knew that sometimes he fell in love without knowing it.
For her, he even lost his principles and position.
"Your Majesty." Tang Zhen rode his horse to the gate of the palace and saw Mo Rongzhan running out. He hurriedly chased after him. "The owner of the Thousand Gold House is Ye Zhen's maid …"
Mo Rongzhan hurriedly reined in the reins. "Who did you say?"
"Ye Zhen's maid is Hong Ling. She has always been at the Thousand Gold House in the capital. Yao Yao … she often goes there." Tang Zhen naturally knew about Yao Yao's escape from the marriage. He glanced at Mo Rongzhan. Now he knew why Yao Yao was so excited when he talked about Ye Zhen. It turned out that she and Ye Zhen were sisters.
In this way, everything Yao Yao knew about Ye Zhen came from that maid, including this trip to Dongqing. It was probably that maid who found the whereabouts of Ye Yiqing and led Yao Yao away.
Perhaps it was not that she didn't have him in her heart, but … she felt that it was more important to find Ye Yiqing.
Ye Yiqing was her biological father. Mo Rongzhan felt that he could reluctantly accept it.
"You will go to White Dragon River with me." Mo Rongzhan said in a deep voice. The affairs of the capital would be handed over to the cabinet minister for the time being. He could rest assured to catch the heartless little girl.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Tang Zhen immediately responded.
The two set off again. Eunuch Fu rode desperately to catch up with them. Just out of the city, Mo Rongzhan and Tang Zhen sped up again. Eunuch Fu had to keep up with them. After a while, even the shadow guards disappeared. Fortunately, there was a shadow guard who saw that he couldn't keep up and stayed to accompany him.
At this time, Ye Zhen in Hamu City was looking coldly at Lu Lingzhi standing in front of her.
"Yaoyao, Luo Jing is my man. He is by your side to protect you. Let him go." Lu Lingzhi's gaze was as gentle as ever, but this time, there was a deep sorrow hidden in his gentleness.
"Is he here to protect me, or to follow and spy on me?" Ye Zhen asked with a sneer. Now she didn't have to hide her identity in front of Lu Lingzhi. With a sneer in her eyes, she said, "Lu Lingzhi, what are you doing here instead of going to the border town?"
Lu Lingzhi looked at her silently for a long time before whispering, "You and Ye Zhen … look very similar, but your character is not the same at all."
"Is it because Ye Zhen trusts you so much that she told you that she saved the emperor?" Ye Zhen looked at him mockingly. "Have you ever thought about why Ye Zhen believes you and why she has been suppressing her true character?"
"You … you even know this?" Lu Lingzhi's face changed. He had always been the only one who knew that Ye Zhen saved the emperor. He didn't expect Yaoyao to know it already.
Ye Zhen smiled faintly. "I also know how you poisoned Ye Zhen. Lu Lingzhi, there is a deep hatred between you and me."
Lu Lingzhi looked at her sadly. From the moment he knew about her relationship with Ye Zhen, he felt despair. He had never felt this way before, but now it was so obvious. "Yaoyao, can you listen to my explanation?"
"What kind of explanation do you think can make me forgive you for killing Ye Zhen? Or what kind of reason can make me forgive you for framing the other members of the Ye family? " Ye Zhen looked at him and asked coldly. Lu Lingzhi was responsible for investigating the crimes of the Ye family. How much of it was true and how much was false, she believed that he was the only one who knew.
"Yaoyao, I … I didn't mean to do that to Ye Zhen." Lu Lingzhi explained in a hoarse voice. "As for the Ye family, it was the emperor's decree. I couldn't do anything about it."
Was this fate? There was no shortage of beautiful women around him, but the two people he was tempted by were sisters.
Ye Zhen looked at him with a smile. "You didn't mean to? Lu Lingzhi, don't you think this reason is ridiculous? "
Lu Lingzhi took a step forward. "Yaoyao, I will make it up to you and treat you well."
"I don't need it." Ye Zhen said coldly. "I feel sick when I see you!"
"Don't you feel sick when you look at Mo Rongzhan?" Lu Lingzhi asked in a low voice. "He ordered the killing of your family. He forgot that Ye Zhen saved him. If you and I have a deep hatred, don't you have hatred with him?"
At this time, Lu Lingzhi still did not forget to mislead her into hating Mo Rongzhan.
"Why did Mo Rongzhan forget that Ye Zhen saved him? Lu Lingzhi, you know better than anyone how you deceived Ye Zhen and what you said when you took the jade pendant from her hand. You know it too." Ye Zhen's words seemed to be mixed with ice shards, scraping Lu Lingzhi's cheeks painfully. "You know best what kind of life Ye Zhen lived. When you deceived her and let Lu Wushuang replace her, don't you feel guilty? In addition to poisoning her, the most ruthless thing you did was to stab her heart with a knife when she trusted you the most. Now you are telling me that you didn't mean to kill her? You really have the guts to say that. "
Lu Lingzhi's face turned pale. Yaoyao's words were like a barbed whip that slammed into his face again and again. He had thought that he would be able to obtain her forgiveness, but never imagined that she would know more than he did.
It didn't sound like Yaoyao was questioning him, but more like … Ye Zhen.
"Yaoyao …" Lu Lingzhi didn't know how to explain. He now knew that no matter how much time he spent, she probably wouldn't forgive him.
"What do you want to do here now? You let your people follow me all the way. Are you going to follow me for the rest of your life? "Ye Zhen turned a blind eye to the pleading and affection in his eyes.
Lu Lingzhi whispered, "You left … because you don't want to marry Mo Rongzhan. I can take you away."
"You are wrong." Ye Zhen said contemptuously, "I left because I wanted to find my biological father. It's not that I don't want to marry the emperor."
"Even if you don't love him, you still want to marry him?" Lu Lingzhi asked, unwilling to give up.
Ye Zhen didn't even want to answer him. She just stared at him coldly.
Lu Lingzhi lowered his eyes, "Let Luo Jing go first."
"If I let him go, will you stop pestering me in the future?" Ye Zhen asked. She was wondering if Mo Rongzhan knew that Lu Lingzhi did not go to the border town to resist the imperial edict. The crime of deceiving the emperor and resisting the imperial edict was enough to make him unable to turn over a new leaf for the rest of his life.
