Ye Zhen couldn't tell what had happened between her and Mo Rongzhan in the past year, and Ye Yiqing didn't want to know either. Since this was not his little daughter, then everything was different from what he said before. What did he mean by letting his daughter choose freely? Bah! Only a fool would let his daughter choose that little bastard again.
"Daddy, how did you become the prime minister of Dongqing? Where is my brother? Is he with you? " Ye Zhen couldn't wait to know how they escaped the pursuit and finally became the prime minister of Dongqing.
"It's a bit long to tell. At that time, Mo Rongzhan ordered the Ye family to be executed. In fact, I had already guessed that this would be the end. People like your uncle are doomed to have a bad end, so you don't have to think about avenging him. If he is alive, he will certainly not do anything for us." Ye Yiqing said, "Although Mo Rongzhan is a bastard, he still has a conscience. He let me and your brother go. The rest of the Ye family who have not done bad things did not end up too badly. As for those who were beheaded … it's hard for me to say a good word for them. Mo Rongzhan still has some redeeming qualities."
Ye Zhen smiled and hugged Ye Yiqing's arm. "Daddy, he is still good."
"As an emperor, he is a wise ruler. As a husband …" Ye Yiqing's smile was sarcastic and cold. "He is a scumbag."
"What is a scumbag?" Ye Zhen didn't quite understand the meaning of the word, but she felt that it was certainly not good.
Ye Yiqing said, "It's the scumbag among men, a bastard."
"Daddy, you are cursing again. If grandmother knows, she will definitely scold you again." Ye Rou laughed. She just didn't understand. The Ye family was considered a prestigious family, and they had been taught very strictly since they were young. She heard that her father was a very serious and rigid person when he was young, but later on, he completely changed. In front of others, he could still pretend to be gentle and elegant, but behind their backs, he would say anything, especially when it came to scolding people, it was simply amazing.
"Don't learn. Daddy is confused." Ye Yiqing still regarded Ye Zhen as a little girl.
"Then how did you become the prime minister of Dongqing?" Ye Zhen didn't want to continue to talk about Mo Rongzhan at this time. Her father would certainly not forgive him. The more she talked, the more he would hate him.
Ye Yiqing sighed. "At that time, I brought your brother and the others to Canghai City and happened to meet Li Hang who was in trouble. I saved him and found out that he was the Crown Prince of Dongqing. He was framed by Imperial Concubine Wan and couldn't even stay in the capital. At that time, I wanted to avenge you and thought that saving the Crown Prince was a good thing, so I became his advisor and helped him get rid of Imperial Concubine Wan … After he ascended to the throne, Dongqing and the Jin Kingdom went to war. But fortunately, we are now negotiating a truce."
Ye Zhen listened to her father's brief account of the past few years, but her heart felt sour. She knew that the simpler her father said, the more difficult the situation must be at that time. Her eyes were a little moist. "Daddy, if I hadn't insisted on marrying Mo Rongzhan, you wouldn't have … suffered like this."
"Silly girl." Ye Yiqing chuckled. "Don't let your imagination run wild. This has nothing to do with who you marry. There is a cause and there is an effect. Your uncle has harmed so many people, so there is such retribution. You are a kind girl, what does it have to do with you?"
"Then … why didn't my brother come with you?" Ye Zhen asked. She thought she could see her brother.
"Your brother has entered the military camp and is training in the camp. He can't come, but if he knew that you are still alive, he would be very happy." Ye Yiqing could imagine his son's mood when he learned the truth.
"I really want to see him. When I became Lu Yaoyao, I thought you were all … At that time, I wanted to kill Lu Lingzhi and Mo Rongzhan."
"You have to remember, even if you hate a person, no matter how much hatred you have with him, don't act rashly before you have the strength to bring him down. You did a good job. Not only did you protect yourself, but you also let Lu Lingzhi get his retribution. Daddy is very happy. If you become cruel and merciless for revenge, you will lose yourself and hurt yourself." Ye Yiqing sighed in his heart. Fortunately, he had taught his daughter well so that she would not become cynical after experiencing such suffering.
Especially when it comes to dealing with the Lu family, Lu Lingzhi must get his retribution, but there are other good people in the Lu family.
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "I know, Daddy."
"Lu Shiming and the others know about you …" Ye Yiqing whispered. He himself had the experience of crossing over, so he believed that his daughter was reborn. However, in the eyes of others, his daughter would be regarded as a monster.
"I don't know. They only know that I am a sister, but they don't know that I am actually Ye Zhen." Ye Zhen glanced at Ye Yiqing. "Mo Rongzhan believed it after he knew."
Ye Yiqing snorted coldly. "Don't mention him to me."
Ye Zhen smiled at him. It seemed that her father really hated Mo Rongzhan.
"By the way, Daddy, did you save Tian Jiu?" Ye Zhen asked hurriedly.
"Your brother wanted to assassinate Lu Lingzhi behind my back. He happened to meet Tian Jiu and saved him." Ye Yiqing said.
Ye Zhen was stunned. "I missed my brother and I …"
"When I finish my business this time, you and I will go to Dongqing. Don't come back again."
"Daddy …" Ye Zhen gritted her teeth gently. She never thought that she would never come back. "I can't let it go."
Ye Yiqing looked at her and asked, "You can't let go of Lu Shiming and the others, or you can't let go of Mo Rongzhan?"
She couldn't let go of either! If it was half a year ago, maybe she would have followed her father without hesitation, but … but now, she still felt reluctant to leave Mo Rongzhan.
Seeing the timid expression on his daughter's face, how could Ye Yiqing not see her thoughts? He really wanted to look up to the sky and sigh. What did his daughter owe Mo Rongzhan? How could she fall in love with him even after being reborn? That little bastard is not as good-looking as him. What did his daughter like about him? Did she really owe him?
"Yaoyao, I'm not in a hurry to leave the capital anyways. Let's not talk about this matter for now. That's right, I still have to see Lu Shiming. He raised your sister and let her live such a good life. I must see him." Ye Yiqing said. For the time being, he didn't tell his daughter about leaving. Anyway, there was still time. He would take his time and let his daughter leave with him.
Ye Zhen didn't want to promise her father to leave at this time. She needed time to think about what to do next. "Well, Daddy, you will like him. He is different from the others in the Lu family."
