Ye Zhen didn't know what her father was going to do, but since he asked her to wait, she waited patiently at the Thousand Gold House. She knew that her father still regarded her as Lu Yaoyao, so she could understand why everyone didn't trust her enough.
"Miss, don't worry, as long as the master knows you are … that's all right." Hong Ling saw that Ye Zhen seemed a little unhappy and comforted her in a low voice.
"That's not what I'm worried about." She just hadn't figured out how to tell her father the truth.
Hong Ling murmured, "Why didn't Uncle Man tell you what the master was going to do? We've been waiting for a long time, but we still don't know where the master is going."
Ye Zhen was also a little worried. What else did her father want to do when he returned to the capital? Revenge on Mo Rongzhan? Impossible! She knew her father better than anyone else. He was not the kind of person who would do something hot-headed.
"Miss, why don't this servant go out and have a look?" Hong Ling whispered.
Ye Zhen gently touched the little seven squatting at her feet. "No, even if I can't see my father today, I will see him tomorrow."
Suddenly, she felt timid and didn't know how to speak when they met.
"Awooo —" The little seven let out a low whine and jumped to the window, barking a few times.
Ye Zhen was stunned. What's wrong? She stood up and walked to the window, only to see a carriage parked outside the Thousand Gold House. Is that … Mo Rongzhan?
Why is he here?
"Hong Ling, you stay here and look after the little seven. I'll go down for a while." Ye Zhen was a little anxious. She had to drive Mo Rongzhan away quickly. What if her father saw him here? What if there were other people here? Everyone must still be resentful towards him.
Mo Rongzhan had already gone to the Lu family to look for her. When he learned that she was not at home, he came here. He didn't have the courage to walk in. He didn't know if she had seen Ye Yiqing. Would it be because … she had completely severed her relationship with him and would never see him again?
"Why are you here?" Ye Zhen came out of the Thousand Gold House and took Mo Rongzhan's hand to hide behind the carriage. "My father has returned to the capital. If he sees you here, he will be angry. Don't come here to find me."
Mo Rongzhan looked down at her nervous and worried expression. She didn't seem to know that Ye Yiqing had entered the palace to meet him. So, she didn't know that Ye Yiqing was the prime minister of Dongqing?
"Today I received the prime minister of Dongqing." Mo Rongzhan whispered, his eyes were fixed on the expression on her face.
Ye Zhen raised an eyebrow. What does this have to do with him coming here? "Why do you have time to come to see me? Hurry up and leave. Don't let Father see you looking for me. "
"You haven't seen … your father?" Mo Rongzhan asked in a low voice.
"He doesn't know that I am Ye Zhen. He still thinks that I am Lu Yaoyao. Probably because of the Lu family and the fact that you made me the Empress, he hasn't come to me yet." Ye Zhen pouted and stared at him aggrievedly.
Mo Rongzhan's heart ached. He bowed his head and kissed her on the lips. "You are his daughter. He will definitely come to see you."
Ye Zhen grabbed his sleeve and looked at his clear and vivid face. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "Then why did you come here to find me? Is there something wrong? "
"I miss you." Mo Rongzhan gently held her in his arms. His thin lips lingered on her pink lips for a moment. Then, he held her tightly in his arms and buried his handsome face in her neck. "Yao Yao, I saw your father."
"…" Ye Zhen's shoulders stiffened.
Mo Rongzhan hugged her even tighter. He was afraid to see the expression on her face. "Today, he brought an envoy from Dongqing to the court. He … is the prime minister of Dongqing. I saw him today."
Ye Zhen was completely stunned. Father has become the Prime Minister of Dongqing? He didn't come to the Thousand Gold House today because he went to the palace to see Mo Rongzhan?
She heard Mo Rongzhan continue to say in her ear, "Yao Yao, no matter what happens, don't leave me, understand?"
"You … did you really see my father?" Ye Zhen asked in a daze.
"All the ministers in the court saw him." Mo Rongzhan whispered. Many people were so frightened that they didn't come back to their senses.
Ye Zhen pushed him away and looked at him up and down. "My father saw you. Didn't he beat you?"
Mo Rongzhan laughed. "It was in the court."
So what? Her father's temper was like that. He was careless and didn't care about any rules at all. When he didn't speak, he looked like a noble and otherworldly banished immortal. In fact, he was just an unrestrained urchin.
"What about my father?" Ye Zhen hurriedly asked. Since Mo Rongzhan was here, it should be the end of the court. Why didn't her father come back to find her?
Mo Rongzhan coughed softly. "I asked Tang Zhen to follow him. I don't know where he went."
"Tang Zhen can't follow my father." Ye Zhen said decisively. "You should go quickly. My father should be back soon."
"Yao Yao, can't I see you when your father is in the capital?" Mo Rongzhan asked hurriedly.
Ye Zhen bit her lip. "If my father doesn't forgive you, then you can't."
Mo Rongzhan's heart, which had already been cold, became completely cold. He knew it would be like this. To Ye Zhen, he could beg her to stay by her side and she would forgive him. But to Ye Yiqing … What should he do? Only today did he realize that he had underestimated his father-in-law. He was afraid that it would be more difficult to get his father-in-law to forgive him for what he had done to Ye Zhen before.
However, even if he had to climb to the sky, he would not hesitate.
"You go quickly." Ye Zhen pushed Mo Rongzhan's arm, wishing she could make him disappear immediately.
Mo Rongzhan thought that he might not see her for a few days. His feet were rooted to the ground, and he was reluctant to move at all.
"Miss …" Suddenly, someone called Ye Zhen not far away.
Ye Zhen heard that it was Man Qin calling her. She felt Mo Rongzhan's body tense up. Her heart skipped a beat and she slowly turned her head.
A familiar face that she hadn't seen for a long time appeared in her sight.
The man who held her hands when she was just a toddler and loved her until she got married stood there. He looked at her with gentle and loving eyes, but he did not have the doting look she was familiar with. Even if she wanted the stars in the sky, he would immediately catch many fireflies and tell her that this was the starry sky he gave her, and that he was her father.
In the two years after she died … In the two years after her rebirth … she had been looking for him. She thought he was dead, but he was still alive.
Ye Yiqing looked at the little girl standing beside Mo Rongzhan. She really looked like … so much like Ye Zhen. No wonder his confidants never doubted that this little girl was not his daughter.
However, she was adopted by the Lu family and had an ambiguous relationship with Mo Rongzhan.
Seeing her expression when she stood with Mo Rongzhan just now, it seemed that, like Ye Zhen, she had already been moved by Mo Rongzhan.
Ye Yiqing suddenly felt like his heart was being cut by a knife. Mo Rongzhan, this little bastard!
