Ye Zhen did not expect to see Ye Chunming again in the capital. Zhao Island was subdued by the imperial court. She thought that Ye Chunming should have been killed by Zhao Tianji or had wandered to other places. But now, he actually appeared in the capital.
"Little cousin, aren't you happy to see your eldest brother?" Ye Chunming still wore a mask on his face and a black cloak. Only his eyes were exposed.
"How dare you show up." Ye Zhen frowned at him. She had just come out of the Thousand Gold House, yet he dared to stop her outside.
Both Hong Ling and Hong Ying looked at her nervously. Originally, Hong Ying wanted to deal with Ye Chunming, but Ye Zhen stopped her with a look.
"Don't go over there." Hong Ling recognized the man as Ye Chunming and stopped Hong Ying from going over.
Ye Chunming laughed in a low voice, "I want to see Second Uncle. Take me to him."
"My father is not here." Ye Zhen said coldly, "Aren't you afraid of being caught?"
"What is there for me to be afraid of now? I originally planned to go all out. I didn't expect Second Uncle to become the prime minister of Dongqing. Little cousin, this is a great opportunity for our Ye family to take revenge." Ye Chunming said, "Take me to Second Uncle."
Ye Zhen knew that Ye Chunming was still thinking of revenge against Mo Rongzhan. She didn't want him to meet her father at all. "Even if my father is the prime minister of Dongqing, so what? Big brother, we can't take revenge."
"Woman's view." Ye Chunming snorted coldly. "You don't let me see Second Uncle because you are worried that it will affect your future empress. Little cousin, don't worry. Just go and be your empress. The Ye family's great hatred can't be done without you."
When Ye Zhen heard Ye Chunming's words, she knew that he must have some kind of idea. How could he want her to avenge the Ye family?
It seemed that she couldn't stop him from seeing her father. Her father should not be influenced by Ye Chunming to seek revenge against Mo Rongzhan.
"You go to the Thousand Gold House and wait. Father may not come back until evening." Ye Zhen said faintly. In the next few days, her father would bring the envoys to the palace to discuss the treaties, and she would only be able to meet him in a few days.
A maniacal smile flashed in Ye Chunming's eyes. He thought that he would never have the chance to take revenge in this lifetime. He did not expect that his second uncle, whom he looked down on the most, would actually become the prime minister of Dongqing. It seemed that he had underestimated his second uncle.
There must have been a reason why Father didn't let Second Uncle enter the imperial examinations. Was it because he was afraid that Second Uncle would become his rival?
Ye Zhen led Ye Chun Ming into the backyard of Thousand Gold House. When Man Qin saw Ye Zhen returning, he felt strange. Then, he saw the tall man behind her, but he did not recognize who he was.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Man Qin came up and asked.
"Uncle Man, long time no see." Ye Chunming took off his cloak and smiled at Man Qin.
Man Qin looked at the half-masked man in surprise. She recognized him from the other side of his face. "Old … Old Master?"
Ye Chunming nodded in satisfaction. At least Man Qin could still recognize him. "It's me."
Why aren't you dead yet? Man Qin exchanged a glance with Ye Zhen. "Old Master, why are you here?"
"I was lucky enough to escape. I heard that Second Uncle is in the capital, so I came to find him." Ye Chunming said lightly, still showing his former majestic aura.
Man Qin saw that Ye Chunming did not want to talk too much with him, so he did not ask more. "Master is not here. He may come back later."
"It doesn't matter. I will wait for Second Uncle here." He had no place to stay in the capital. It was not that he had no money, but his appearance would attract attention wherever he went. He used to be a big shot in the capital, and many people knew him. He did not want to be recognized.
"Go and prepare a room for Old Master." Man Qin had to give the order. It seemed that Ye Chunming intended to stay here.
Ye Zhen's brows had been frowning slightly. She had no deep feelings for Ye Chunming, her eldest cousin. He was trained by her uncle, and his means and thoughts were all inherited. If he really wanted to find Mo Rongzhan for revenge, she did not know what he would do.
She felt that her father should have no intention of revenge, but what if Ye Chunming instigated him to do so?
What if Ye Chunming wanted to hurt Mo Rongzhan?
Ye Zhen found that all she was thinking about now was Mo Rongzhan … She did not want the Ye family to have any more hatred with Mo Rongzhan.
"Eldest Cousin, then you wait for my father here." Ye Zhen said. She did not want to listen to Ye Chunming's words of revenge.
"Good." Ye Chunming nodded faintly. In his opinion, Lu Yaoyao was just a chess piece for his future revenge. He did not need to talk too much with her at all. When Second Uncle came back, he would ask Second Uncle to help him.
In the past, Second Uncle had never dared to resist his father. Although his father was gone, Second Uncle would certainly help him for the sake of the Ye family.
Ye Zhen came out of the Thousand Gold House and looked at the sky. It was already late. She could not enter the palace at this time, so she could only go to her father first.
"Let's wait for Father outside the palace gate." Ye Zhen said.
Hong Ling looked at her in surprise. "Miss, it's almost dark. I don't know when the Old Master will leave the palace."
"Then we'll wait." She was not afraid that Ye Chunming would seek revenge. She was just worried that her father would be affected. She did not want to see her father and Mo Rongzhan really incompatible.
When the carriage arrived outside the palace gate, the sky was much darker. Even if there were lights on the roadside, it was difficult to see the figures in the distance.
Ye Zhen held the hand stove tightly in her hand and stared at the palace gate.
"Yao Yao." Huang Fuchen's voice came in from outside the carriage. "Why are you here?"
"Master?" Ye Zhen looked at him in surprise. "I'm waiting for my father here."
Eunuch Fu smiled and saluted her. "This slave greets the princess."
"Eunuch Fu, you may dispense with the formalities." Ye Zhen smiled and turned to look at Huang Fuchen. "Master, are you going to the palace?"
Huang Fuchen nodded gently. "It's cold outside. Why don't you go inside and wait for your father?"
"Yes, princess, it's better to go to the palace." Eunuch Fu said hurriedly. The emperor missed his master very much.
"I …" Ye Zhen was about to reply when she looked up and saw Ye Yiqing's figure appearing not far away. She smiled and said to Huang Fuchen, "My father is out. Master, I won't go to the palace."
Huang Fuchen turned his head and saw Ye Yiqing, a faint smile flashing across his face.
Ye Yiqing was a little surprised when he saw him. When he saw Ye Zhen in the carriage, he laughed. "What are you doing here?"
"Waiting for you." Ye Zhen whispered.
Huang Fuchen and Ye Yiqing exchanged a few words and left with Eunuch Fu without disturbing the conversation between father and daughter.
"Did something happen?" Ye Yiqing got on the carriage and looked at his daughter with a gloomy expression.
