Mo Rongzhan showed her the results of his investigation of Zhao Yang's situation in the Northern Darkstar Kingdom over the past few years. It took him less than an hour to read the contents of a few pages. Ye Zhen read it over and over again, her heart filled with indescribable sadness.
When she felt lonely in King Qin's Mansion, she often wondered what kind of life Zhao Yang lived. She never thought that Zhao Yang would lead such an aggrieved life.
If Beitang Cheng was still here, she would not let him go.
Fortunately, he had a little conscience and let Zhao Yang go. Separation was better than widowhood. Zhao Yang's life still had hope.
Ye Zhen wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and burned the results of Zhao Yang's stay in the Northern Darkstar Kingdom. She didn't want others to know about this matter, but her father should already know it. She had asked him to go to the Northern Darkstar Kingdom to inquire about it.
She just didn't know when Zhao Yang's feelings for her father began. She didn't believe that Zhao Yang took the initiative to provoke her father because she wanted to find someone to rely on. There must be other reasons.
Knock knock knock –
There was a knock on the door.
Mo Rongzhan's deep and magnetic voice came from outside. "Yao Yao, it's me."
Ye Zhen pursed her lips and did not speak. Of course, she knew that Mo Rongzhan could not be blamed for Zhao Yang's matter. Even if she received a letter from Zhao Yang at that time, she might not be able to help her.
She was upset in her heart, so she wanted to take it out on Mo Rongzhan.
Mo Rongzhan pushed the door open and walked in. His deep, dark eyes landed on the slender figure by the window. He walked over and lowered his head to look at her fair and pretty face. When he saw her red eyes, his heart ached for a moment. "Yaoyao, do you want to go to White Sand Bay? There's a dock there and it's not bad to play on the river at night."
Listening to his gentle and careful flattery, Ye Zhen glared at him fiercely.
"Still angry?" Mo Rongzhan's heart warmed at her coquettish and angry eyes. A faint smile floated at the corner of his mouth. He reached out and put his arm around her shoulder. "I know it was my fault before. Why don't you beat me to vent your anger?"
Ye Zhen shouted angrily, "What's the use of me beating you?"
Mo Rongzhan whispered in her ear, "You're weak, so you can't hurt me. How about I let you bite me tonight?"
"You …" Ye Rou glared at him. "I don't care. In the future, no matter what, you have to pay attention to Zhao Yang's matters. Even if she wants to remarry, you have to let her marry out in style as a princess."
If her father really likes Zhao Yang, he will definitely marry her in the future. Ye Zhen must pave the way for Zhao Yang first.
"Alright." Mo Rongzhan thought that even if she didn't say it, he would compensate Zhao Yang. Not to mention, agreeing to it would appease this little Jiaojiao's anger.
Ye Zhen pushed him. "Aren't we going to Baisha Bay? Let me go. "
Mo Rongzhan sucked on her neck. "If you don't want to go, we can do something else."
"I want to go!" Ye Zhen cried, blushing and pushing him away.
"Let's go." Mo Rongzhan said with a smile, a little regretful that he should not have proposed to go on a cruise.
Baisha Bay was an inner lake in Jinkou City. The lake was connected to the river, and there were many pleasure boats on both sides of the lake. Guests were coming and going, and the pleasure boats were singing and singing. This was the place where the merchants of Jinkou City went to have fun. Of course, not all of them were boatgirls. There were also pleasure boats that sold their skills but not their bodies. The boatgirls were all proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. When the guests were drinking and having fun, they would play the zither and sing songs behind the screen. Their purity and self-discipline were sought after by many people.
Mo Rongzhan didn't want Ye Zhen to see the vulgar atmosphere of other pleasure boats, so he had ordered people to book a six-canopied boat. The boat had a large belly and a small tail. It was about half the size of a chief. There were five cabins in the front and back, and the middle cabin was for entertaining guests. There were curtains hanging on both sides of the boat, making it bright and spacious.
It was the first time that Ye Zhen had seen such a luxurious and bustling night scene. She was taken off the boat by Mo Rongzhan. When the curtains were rolled up, it was dazzling and fragrant. She looked at both sides of the boat. Many young women dressed in gorgeous makeup sat on both sides of the boat. Some were singing salty water songs, while others were calling for ferry.
In such a scene, how could Ye Zhen not guess where she was? She turned around with a blush on her cheeks and stared at Mo Rongzhan. "How do you know about this place? Have you been here before? "
Mo Rongzhan said with a smile, "I've been here once, and it's hard to be shy. Don't get me wrong, I've never been to that kind of pleasure boat. I've just listened to music and drank a few glasses of wine with my friends through the screen."
Ye Zhen curled her lips. She was a girl, listening to those songs from such a distance made her blush and her heart beat faster. At that time, he was still young and vigorous. How could he not be tempted at all? "Don't tell me you have a close confidante here?"
"I don't have a close confidante, but I do have a vinegar jar." Mo Rongzhan laughed and sat down at the round table with his arms around her. "Don't dirty your eyes here. Let's go out to the river."
"How did you come to Jinkou City before?" Ye Zhen looked at the table full of freshwater shrimps and crabs, her stomach unwillingly bulged.
Mo Rongzhan peeled a shrimp and fed it to her little mouth. "At that time, I came here in disguise. The food and fodder on the front line was insufficient. The court neither gave us food nor silver. I had to borrow food myself. This is the only place that Ye Yisong can't control."
"You came with Lu Lingzhi?" Ye Zhen immediately remembered the business of the Lu family in Jinkou City. Although it had been secretly destroyed by her, the Lu family was still a respectable figure in Jinkou City at that time.
Mo Rongzhan nodded faintly. "There are others besides the Lu family."
"Will you be recognized when you come to Jinkou City this time?" Ye Zhen asked hurriedly.
"It doesn't matter if they recognize me." Mo Rongzhan fed her fish again. "Eat some, you're still too thin."
Ye Zhen snorted. "Where am I thin?"
Mo Rongzhan's eyes fell on her chest and he nodded with satisfaction. "It's not thin, but it still needs to be supplemented."
"You used to be so frivolous?" Ye Zhen bit her lip. The more she got along with him, the more shameless she felt.
"Who could I be frivolous to before? You are my empress. Do you want me to be respectful to you? "Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice." Would you like to drink some wine? "
Ye Zhen smiled and nodded. In fact, she also liked him like this. It was better than the cold face he often used to say. It was just … she was not used to his words that made people blush from time to time.
Their boat had already left the inner lake and was slowly cruising on the river. Suddenly, a melodious singing came from not far away. The voice was like the cry of an oriole, long and melodious, like the murmur of flowing water. It was low, soft, and charming, causing one's heart to ripple upon hearing it.
"It's a beautiful song." Ye Zhen said in surprise. She got up and walked out of the cabin to see who had such a beautiful voice.
