?
Lu Jing probably didn't expect Ye Zhen to drive her away directly. She looked at her with a livid face. "Yao Yao, I'm doing this out of kindness. I don't want your reputation to be damaged in the future. If you don't appreciate it, then forget it."
Ye Zhen looked at her amusedly. It was really strange. Before, this aunt said that she would wait to see her make a fool of herself. But now, she wanted to please her. "You came to me today to say these words. Was someone instructed you to do so? Lu Jing, I am very curious about one thing. How did you become the Fifth Wangye's side princess?"
"How I became the Fifth Wangye's consort has nothing to do with you." Lu Jing said with a sullen face.
"With the ability of the Wangs, they certainly can't marry you to the Fifth Wangye. It should be your own ability to become the Fifth Wangye's consort. I have always wondered what you meant by what you said in the Huguo Temple. Now I understand. It turns out that you have already made friends with the Fifth Wangye a year ago." Ye Zhen glanced at Lu Jing.
She really underestimated her. Lu Jing looked at Ye Zhen blankly. "Since I am already the Wangye's consort, I will be a family with you in the future. I hope you can put down your previous prejudices so that we can get along well in the future."
Ye Zhen squinted at her with a faint smile. "You, a consort, have the face to say such a thing? Even if we are a family, it should be a family with the Fifth Wangye. You are a consort. What do you mean? "
Lu Jing's face turned pale. Who in the capital didn't know that the Fifth Wangye and the Fifth Wangye were strangers? She was now the Fifth Wangye's most favored consort. She had always been the Fifth Wangye's social intercourse outside. She had long regarded herself as the Wangye's consort. But Lu Yaoyao's words were like a big slap on her face.
"Lu Yaoyao!" Lu Jing couldn't suppress the anger in her heart and glared at Ye Zhen with red eyes.
Ye Rou coldly snorted. "Hurry and leave. Don't stay here and embarrass yourself. As a side princess, you can clearly lend a helping hand to your sister. You clearly know what kind of life Lu Fang-er is living in the Liang family, but you abandon her for the sake of face. You really are loyal."
Lu Jing was about to explode with anger, but she didn't dare to be as angry as before. It was already a fact that Lu Yaoyao would become the Empress, otherwise the Fifth Wangye wouldn't let her walk around so much.
"Since you don't appreciate it, it's useless for me to say more. Goodbye nAd1" Lu Jing said coldly. She didn't want to humiliate herself here.
"Send the guest off." Ye Zhen waved her hand indifferently. She didn't want to see Lu Jing again. She used to think that she was vain and liked to compare herself with others, but now she knew that she was a selfish and ruthless person.
Hong Ling walked Lu Jing to the door and returned.
Not long after, Pei Shi came to find Ye Zhen.
"Why did Jing 'er suddenly come to you?" Pei Shi asked Ye Zhen.
"It's because of Lu Fang." Ye Zhen whispered, "Mother, don't associate with Lu Jing in the future. She is too cold."
Pei Shi frowned and said, "I thought she had a little heart, but I didn't expect … Alas, Fang 'er hasn't sent back any news so far. If the old madam in heaven knew of her situation, even if she said she didn't want to talk to Fang' er, she would be sad."
"If mother is really worried, I will accompany you to the Liang family." Ye Zhen said.
Pei Shi glanced at her. "Fang 'er treated you like this, and her eldest brother hurt your sister. It doesn't matter if you don't care about the Lu family."
"Their life and death have nothing to do with me, but you and father are very important to me." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "Just think of me as going to see her for the old madam."
"Alas, if it weren't for Liu Shi, Lu Fang wouldn't have married Liang Chun." Pei Shi sighed.
At that time, Lu Fang had a chance to choose, but she insisted on marrying Liang Chun. The old madam also persuaded her.
"Mother, it's useless to think too much now." Ye Zhen said.
Pei Shi said, "Forget it, Fang 'er may not want us to take care of her affairs. If she really needs our help, she will come to us."
Ye Zhen smiled and nodded. "Okay."

"Your Majesty, after Old Zhuo and his daughter left Feng Wu City, they went to Junlin Mountain." In the imperial study, two secret guards knelt in front of Mo Rongzhan and answered his questions with their heads bowed.
Junlin Mountain? Mo Rongzhan narrowed his eyes slightly. He remembered that Ox Village was near Junlin Mountain. Did Old Zhuo want to find the hidden Ox Village?
"Who did Old Zhuo meet with?" Mo Rongzhan asked in a deep voice.
One of them handed over a list of names. "Your Majesty, these are the people Old Zhuo met when he went to Junlin Mountain."
Mo Rongzhan looked at the names on the list and handed it to Shen Yi next to him. "Go and find out who they are."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, Old Zhuo and his daughter are on their way to the capital. They should enter the city in two days."
Mo Rongzhan's eyes darkened slightly. "Tell me everything they do in the capital."
The two secret guards nodded.
What is Old Zhuo doing in the capital? Does he have people in the capital?
Mo Rongzhan had always suspected that Old Zhuo had an inextricable relationship with Qian Luocha, but he still hadn't found out the truth. If Old Zhuo was related to Qian Luocha, then what about Mo Rongke?
"How many years has it been since Sixth Duke returned to the capital?" Mo Rongzhan looked at Eunuch Fu next to him.
Eunuch Fu was stunned for a moment, wondering why the emperor would suddenly mention Sixth Duke. This duke had always liked to go everywhere. Thinking about it carefully, he had almost forgotten what he looked like. "Your Majesty, Sixth Duke has left the capital for about five or six years."
Five or six years …
Mo Rongzhan nodded lightly. "Among the several dukes, he seems to be the only one who hasn't taken a consort yet, right?"
Eunuch Fu agreed. Why did the emperor suddenly think of Sixth Duke's marriage?
"Go to Sixth Duke's residence and pass on a message. It's time for Sixth Duke to return." Mo Rongzhan said lightly. Since Old Zhuo didn't reveal any flaws, he might be able to learn something from him if he found Mo Rongke.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Eunuch Fu replied.
Mo Rongzhan had the two hidden guards withdraw to keep an eye on Elder Zhuo. He hesitated for a moment before going to the Palace of Compassionate and Peaceful to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager.
"I am going to Huguo Temple to restore it tomorrow. If Your Majesty is free, why don't you go with me?" The Empress Dowager said to Mo Rongzhan with a smile.
"Mother, I'm afraid I don't have time tomorrow. Why don't I let Tang Zhen escort you to Hu Guo Temple?" Mo Rongzhan whispered. He had just returned and there were too many things to do in the capital.
The Empress Dowager originally didn't expect the Emperor to really accompany her to Hu Guo Temple, "Alright then, the Emperor is busy, aijia can go alone."
Mo Rongzhan looked at Aunt Cheng, "Tomorrow, you must serve the Empress Dowager well. Don't let others offend her."
Aunt Cheng agreed in a low voice.
"You are worrying for nothing. That is Huguo Temple, not some other place. Who would dare to offend me?" the Empress Dowager said with a smile.
