Huang Fuchen was amused and helpless by their bickering. It took him a while to calm them all down.
"Aren't you going to find Tang Zhen? Go ahead. "Huang Fuchen said to Zhao Tianji.
Zhao Tianji and Tang Zhen had met before on Zhao Island. The two admired each other. This time, Tang Zhen also hosted a banquet to entertain him and invited him to drink today.
"It's almost time. I'll go first." Zhao Tianji said, squinting at Ye Zhen and snorting coldly.
In fact, Ye Zhen did not hate Zhao Tianji. On the contrary, she thought that he was very good, especially when they were on Zhao Island. He could rationally and clearly refuse the temptation of Zhao Mingxiao and did not use the innocent people on the island to achieve his own wishes for unrealistic dreams. It was easy to say that establishing a country and becoming an emperor, but in reality, every step of the way must be stepped on the blood of others.
Anyone who was not mentally prepared to face many deaths in the future could not start this step at all.
Zhao Tianji was not a man without ambition. If he was willing to stay on the Zhao Family Island for the rest of his life, there would be no private mine. However, he was more rational than Zhao Mingxiao, and more conscientious than Zhao Mingxiao. He would not take advantage of those ignorant islanders.
"Why do you like to bicker with him?" Huang Fuchen asked Ye Zhen helplessly.
Ye Zhen laughed. "Who told him to kidnap me? I won't be reconciled if I don't piss him off."
Huang Fuchen shook his head with a smile and motioned for Ye Zhen to go inside to talk. Although the sun was shining outside, it was still a little cold.
There was a heater in the room, and when she walked in, she felt warm all over. Looking at Huang Fuchen's still handsome face, Ye Zhen asked in a low voice, "Master, are you okay?"
"Why would I be okay?" Huang Fuchen sat down and looked at Ye Zhen with a faint smile.
Ye Zhen sat opposite him and looked at his expression carefully, as if she really could not see any sadness in him. "Sister Mu Qing is dead. I was afraid that you would take things too hard."
Huang Fuchen lowered his head and whispered, "What should I do if I take things too hard? She said she was free. "
"Master, is Mu Qing's injury very serious?" She thought that with her master's medical skills, she could at least live a few more days.
"She doesn't want to live." Huang Fuchen said lightly. "Yao Yao, Mu Qing's heart was hurt by Zhao Mingxiao."
Ye Zhen froze for a moment. Does this mean that Mu Qing has fallen in love with Zhao Mingxiao?
"Let's not talk about the past anymore," Huang Fuchen said. Since Mu Qing was already free, then let her rest in peace. There was no need to mention it anymore.
"Oh." Ye Zhen sighed in her heart. She did not expect it to be like this. "Master, where is Zhao Mingxiao now?"
Huangfu Chen said indifferently, "He is locked in the water dungeon on Zhao Family Island."
With his arms and legs broken, even if he were to be released in the future, he would not be able to do anything outrageous.
"Lock him up for life!" Ye Rou snorted.
Hearing her angry tone, Huang Fuchen couldn't help laughing. "I heard that your father is back. Have you seen him?"
"Yes, I have." Ye Rou smiled. "I didn't expect my father to be the Prime Minister of Dongqing. When Mo Rongzhan sees him, he must be so scared that he can't speak."
She had only met Ye Yiqing not long ago, but she seemed to be very intimate with him already? Huang Fuchen had some strange doubts in his heart, but he couldn't tell what was strange. It was as if he was vaguely grasping something suspicious, but he couldn't think of what was strange at the moment.
"I have met your father before. He is not a simple person. It is also expected that he could become the Prime Minister of Dongqing." Huang Fuchen said with a smile. "You should be very happy that the Emperor conferred the title of your sister."
The corner of Ye Zhen's mouth rose slightly. She lowered her head and pursed a faint smile, thinking of the sweetness with Mo Rongzhan last night. "Yes, at least … I don't even have a burial place."
These words sounded a little sad. Huang Fuchen nodded gently and said no more.
"Master, will you stay in the capital in the future?" Ye Zhen asked.
Huang Fuchen glanced at her and said with a smile, "That's not necessarily true. I came to the capital this time mainly to see you … and to send your maid back. Maybe I can go somewhere else."
Ye Zhen blinked. "Master, do you want to go to Dongqing?"
"You …" Huang Fuchen was stunned. "You want to go to Dongqing with Lord Ye?"
"Yes, Master. Will you go with me?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile. "Anyway, you have nothing to do in the capital. Why don't we go to Dongqing together?"
Huang Fuchen did not speak for a long time. It was not until the water on the three-legged stove boiled that he came back to his senses. He hurriedly picked up the stove and lowered his eyes to hide his shock. "If you want to leave the capital, have you told the Emperor about this?"
"I haven't had time to tell him yet." Ye Zhen bowed her head and bit her lip. He certainly did not want her to leave. However, she would not be gone for a long time. As long as Li Heng's illness was cured, she would come back.
Huang Fuchen whispered, "Yao Yao, you are the Empress …"
Ye Zhen's cheeks were slightly hot. "Isn't the marriage not finished yet? Besides, my grandmother has just passed away. I still have to wait for a year before I can marry him. "
Although Old Madam Lu was not her grandmother, Ye Zhen felt that she should observe mourning for her grandmother after more than a year of love and care.
"Then … when are you going to tell the Emperor?" Huang Fuchen asked. Does Yao Yao really have no affection for the Emperor? He looked at her soft and beautiful face. Her smooth jade-like skin was suffused with a faint blush. He did not know whether it was because of shyness or the warmth of the room.
Ye Zhen held her chin and looked embarrassed. "I don't know. I'll tell him when I find a chance."
When it came to Old Madam Lu, Ye Zhen naturally thought of Lu Lingzhi. "Yao Yao, what happened to Lu Lingzhi?"
"He followed me to Hamu City." Ye Zhen really didn't want to mention Lu Lingzhi. "He mistook me for Ye Zhen and disregarded ethics at all. Later, it was Mo Rongzhan who saved me."
Huang Fuchen nodded gently. "The Emperor still went to find you."
"Yes." Ye Zhen pursed her lips and smiled. She thought that when she left, Mo Rongzhan would let go of her completely and never come to her again.
However, what she didn't expect was that the truth she hesitated for so long and entangled for so long was actually told to Mo Rongzhan under such circumstances. At that time, she didn't care whether he would believe it or not. She didn't care what he would do to her after knowing that she was Ye Zhen. When she saw him in so much pain, as if he was seriously hurt by her departure, anger surged in her heart.
His pain … How could it compare to what she had gone through?
Well, she let it all go now. Anyway, the truth was out. He did not feel disgusted or afraid because she was Ye Zhen. On the contrary … he felt so guilty and painful that she felt her heart softened.
In particular, the scenes in Prince Qin's Mansion reminded her of the good mood she once had when she was looking forward to being with him.
