Mo Rongzhan originally wanted Huangfu Chen to help him again, but Huangfu Chen did not agree.
"No matter what I do, Ye Yiqing will not believe it. Instead of letting Yao Yao marry you in this way, you might as well go to him directly. As long as Ye Yiqing can let go of Ye Zhen's death, then Yao Yao will naturally marry you." Huangfu Chen said lightly.
Yao Yao is Ye Zhen … This secret that only he and Ye Yiqing knew could not be revealed. Ye Yiqing knew very well how much he disliked Ye Zhen. Even if it was because of a misunderstanding, it could not change the fact that he had hurt his daughter. How could he marry Ye Zhen again? If Ye Yiqing was a minister of the Jin Kingdom, he could still use the imperial edict to suppress him, but he was the prime minister of Dongqing …
"Ah Zhan, I really can't do anything." Huangfu Chen said, then left the imperial study.
Mo Rongzhan sat still. He needed to think about what to do next. Should he go to Ye Yiqing? He felt that he would be driven out by Ye Yiqing.
Eunuch Fu stood aside with his head bowed. He looked at the cold and resolute side profile of the emperor. Under the yellowish light, the emperor, who had always been omnipotent and powerful, looked a little lonely, as if … helpless and helpless. He had been by the emperor's side for more than 20 years. It could be said that he watched the emperor grow up. For so many years, he had never seen such an expression on the emperor's face.
His heart ached. The emperor did not know how to care for others since he was a child, let alone like a woman. Even when it was Imperial Concubine Lu, the emperor did not spend more time on her. Why did he fall in love with Lu Yaoyao? For Lu Yaoyao, the emperor had changed.
How sad would the emperor be if he knew that Lu Yaoyao was leaving the capital again?
Eunuch Fu thought of the emperor a while ago. At that time, Lu Yaoyao left a letter saying that she was going to find her biological father. He saw unspeakable grief and unwillingness in the emperor's eyes. He had never seen an emperor like this …
"Your Majesty." Eunuch Fu complained about Lu Yaoyao in his heart. The emperor was so good to her. What else was she dissatisfied with? Every time she left the emperor's side, another woman would be so happy.
Mo Rongzhan responded faintly, still thinking about how to tell Ye Yiqing.
"I heard that … the princess is going to Dongqing Kingdom with Lord Ye," Eunuch Fu said quickly.
"Yes." Mo Rongzhan nodded absent-mindedly. A moment later, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Eunuch Fu coldly. "What did you just say?"
Eunuch Fu said hurriedly, "Your Majesty, I accidentally heard from Mr. Huangfu that Lord Ye wants to take the princess away. The princess … has already agreed."
She agreed to leave the capital?
Mo Rongzhan felt as if his heart was being squeezed by a big hand. "Are you sure you didn't hear me wrong?"
"Perhaps … I really heard wrongly. Your Majesty, why don't you ask the princess again?" Eunuch Fu said hurriedly. He really hoped that he had heard wrongly.
She had promised him that she would stay by his side.
What if Ye Yiqing forced her to leave? She cared about her father so much. She would never quarrel with Ye Yiqing because of him. Did she really want to go to Dongqing?
Mo Rongzhan's heart was a little flustered. He actually didn't know how to make her stay.
"Your Majesty …" Eunuch Fu looked at the emperor's frowning and silent appearance, and his heart became more and more sour.
"Don't mention this again." Mo Rongzhan said coldly.
He really should go to Ye Yiqing.
…
…
Although Ye Zhen got Ye Yiqing's assurance, she was still worried about what Ye Chunming would do when she returned home. She still remembered the chaos of Zhao Island very clearly. Wasn't Zhao Mingxiao's ambition instigated by Ye Chunming?
She knew too well what kind of ability Ye Chunming had. He was simply the second Ye Yisong.
The next day, she got up early in the morning and was ready to go out with Hong Ling and the others. Before she reached the door, she was called by Pei Shi.
"Mother, what can I do for you?" Ye Zhen smiled and bowed, then sat down beside Pei Shi.
Pei Shi looked at her daughter with a frown. Recently, her daughter often went out. She knew that she was going to find Ye Yiqing. She did not object to her daughter having more contact with her biological father. Putting herself in Ye Yiqing's shoes, she would certainly want to take her daughter away. It was rare for Ye Yiqing to let Yao Yao continue to stay in the Lu family. "Yao Yao, mother has something to tell you."
"What is it?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile.
"You … do you want to go to Dongqing with your father?" Pei Shi asked in a low voice, then hurriedly added, "Don't blame mother for asking directly. Your father has lost so many relatives, and it's not easy for him to recognize you. It's normal for him to want to take you away."
The smile on Ye Zhen's face disappeared. "Mother, you don't want me to go to Dongqing?"
Pei Shi whispered, "It's not that I don't want you to go, but you still have a biological brother you haven't seen. Mother can't bear to part with you. If you don't come back, I will be sad. If your father asks you to go, don't refuse at once. It's good to see your biological brother."
"Mother, are you asking me to go to Dongqing?" Ye Zhen's eyes lit up. She was still worried about how to talk to Pei Shi, but she didn't expect that her mother had already taken the initiative to let her go with her father.
"I think your father is right." Mrs. Pei said, "You are now in mourning. You will not be able to marry the Emperor within a year. Furthermore, your identity is special. Your father and your father are worried that someone in the capital city will harm you. It is better to go to Dongqing first and come back when things have calmed down."
Ye Zhen was confused. "Mother, I don't understand what you mean. What do my father and my father mean?"
She was talking about Lu Shiming and Ye Yiqing. When did they meet again? Why didn't she know about it?
"Your father came to look for your father two days ago. I don't know what they talked about in the study, but they talked for a long time. Your father only told me last night that he wanted you to stay in Dongqing for a while," Pei Shi said.
Ye Zhen asked in a low voice, "Mother, is there something happening in the capital?"
Lu Shiming was a member of the Hanlin Academy, and his popularity had always been excellent. He must have heard something, otherwise, he would not have said such a thing. Moreover, what did her father say to Lu Shiming? How could she be kept in the dark?
In fact, Pei Shi didn't know anything. When she was about to speak, she saw Lu Shiming coming in from outside.
"Your father is here. It's better for him to tell you more clearly." According to Pei Shi's own ideas, she was reluctant to let her daughter go elsewhere. However, this was her husband's decision, and she could only obey.
"Father?" Ye Zhen looked at Lu Shiming doubtfully.
Lu Shiming nodded gently. "Come with me to the study."
