The Empress Dowager began to dislike her a year ago. Every mother would be partial to her child. It was not that the Empress Dowager did not love her, but if she had to choose between her and Mo Rongzhan, her son was naturally more important.
Probably because she had repeatedly asked Mo Rongzhan to risk his life to save her, the Empress Dowager was already very unhappy.
Pei Shi sighed. "Daughter-in-law and daughter are still different."
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "Mother doesn't have to worry too much. As long as I don't do anything wrong, the Empress Dowager will accept me again sooner or later."
Having said that, Ye Zhen still felt puzzled. Why did the Empress Dowager come to Huguo Temple today?
She wanted to let Xue Lin check it out immediately. Intuitively, she felt that the Empress Dowager's visit to Huguo Temple today was not as simple as returning a vow. Why did the Empress Dowager look so unhappy when she saw them, as if something had been destroyed by her?
No! She couldn't let Xue Lin investigate the Empress Dowager.
She didn't want to have a gap with the Empress Dowager, especially now that she had not entered the palace. If she let Xue Lin investigate the Empress Dowager just because of a little suspicion, Mo Rongzhan would think that she was making a mountain out of a molehill.
There were some things that Mo Rongzhan could do, but she couldn't.
"Yao Yao." As soon as she walked out of the back hall, Ye Zhen heard a familiar voice not far away.
She looked up and smiled. "Big Brother Tang, what are you doing here?"
The handsome Tang Zhen came from the front. He looked at Ye Zhen's face for a while and quickly moved away. He turned to Pei Shi and saluted, "Third Madam Lu, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you?"
Pei Shi used to like Tang Zhen very much. Naturally, she was happy to see him. "Very good, Marquis Jingning, how are you?"
Tang Zhen smiled and said very well, then turned his eyes back to Ye Zhen. "Yao Yao, why did you come to Huguo Temple? Are you here to accompany the Empress Dowager?"
"It's just a coincidence. I didn't expect the Empress Dowager to come to Hu Guo Temple today. Brother Tang must be escorting the Empress Dowager here today." Ye Zhen hadn't seen Tang Zhen for a long time. Now that she saw him, she couldn't help but remember that when they first met, she won his silver whip. At that time, Lu Lingzhi was still like the sun at high noon in the capital, and she had just become Lu Yaoyao. She was full of resentment and hatred.
"Yes, the Empress Dowager said that she was praying for the emperor's personal expedition. Today, she just came to fulfill her vows. She didn't want to disturb the people, so she didn't seal the mountain." Tang Zhen looked at Ye Zhen and whispered.
Pei Shi saw that Tang Zhen seemed to have something to say to Ye Zhen, so she said, "Yao Yao, you talk to Marquis Jingning first. I still want to ask for a divination."
Ye Zhen smiled and agreed.
"Yao Yao, how have you been in King's City this year?" Tang Zhen asked with a smile.
"People are not used to being in a foreign country." Ye Zhen smiled faintly.
Tang Zhen took a deep look at Ye Zhen. "You … don't you want to know how Yan Zhi is doing?"
For Tang Zhen, he didn't know that the Lu Yaoyao in front of him was Ye Zhen. He thought that she had always grown up in the Lu family and still had a sibling relationship with Lu Lingzhi. It was only because of the Ye family that she resented the Lu family.
Ye Zhen understood Tang Zhen's thoughts very well. She smiled faintly and said, "Big Brother Tang, how Lu Lingzhi is doing in the Wilderness has nothing to do with me. I know that he is not doing well. After all, he is a member of the Lu family. If grandmother's spirit is in heaven, she will not be able to rest in peace. I will be sad if I know that he is doing well. So, I don't want to know how he is doing in the Wilderness.
Tang Zhen nodded gently. "That's good."
Although he knew that Lu Lingzhi had done too many wrong things, after all, they had gone through life and death together. They were not brothers, but they were better than brothers. He couldn't turn a blind eye to Lu Lingzhi and couldn't help but ask people to inquire about his situation.
"Big Brother Tang, I have to go and burn incense. You still have duties, so I won't disturb you." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Tang Zhen nodded. "Good."
They saluted each other and Ye Zhen went to the front hall to find Pei Shi.
"There are really all kinds of people these days. She sells herself to bury her father outside the gate of Huguo Temple."
"Look at that woman. She is really beautiful. She is afraid that she will meet a playboy in the city. She will not be able to bury her father but will be fancied by that playboy."
"That's true. Most of the people who go to Huguo Temple to burn incense are the women of the family. There will always be a few who sympathize with her."
"If you sympathize with her, why don't you buy her?"
"I won't do that. I can give her a few silvers. Who can rest assured to keep such a person at home?"
"She is afraid that the man in the family will be taken away …"
"Go away, don't say such dirty words in front of Buddha."
"…"
Ye Zhen was kneeling in worship when she heard the whispers and loud laughter of the two women next to her. She just frowned slightly at the content of their conversation.
It was the first time she had heard of someone selling herself outside Huguo Temple to bury her father.
"Yao Yao, have you finished talking with Marquis Jingning?" Pei Shi came over from the other side and looked at her daughter with a smile.
"Mother, did you ask for a good fortune?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile.
Pei Shi nodded, "The fortune says that you will have both children after you get married in the future."
"…" Ye Zhen shook her head in amusement, "Mother, what fortune did you ask for for me?"
"Not only for you, but also for your eldest brother. I have no wish now. I just hope that your eldest brother can return to the capital to work. I always feel uneasy when he is outside." Pei Shi said.
"Mother …" Ye Zhen wanted to explain in a low voice that Lu Xiangzhi was not suitable in the capital. Serving in Feng Wu City was the best for his future career. This was the path chosen for him by Xu Lao and her father. It must be for his own good.
Pei Shi waved her hand, "I know, it's good that your eldest brother is in Feng Wu City. Your father told me about it."
"I saw my eldest brother in Feng Wu City. He is calm and has helpers arranged by Xu Lao and my father. After a few years in Feng Wu City, he will be more mature when he returns to the capital in the future. It will be a kind of training for my eldest brother."
"I know." Pei Shi smiled. Which mother doesn't want her son to have a bright future?
Ye Zhen knew that Pei Shi actually missed her eldest brother. "Mother, let's go back."
Today, with the empress dowager here, she didn't want to stay here for a long time.
Pei Shi thought the same. Today, seeing the empress dowager's attitude towards her daughter, she was still very worried. She wanted to ask her daughter about it, but this was not the place to talk. She could only hold back.
"Let's go." Pei Shi smiled.
When walking out of Huguo Temple, Ye Zhen remembered the words of the two women just now. Unconsciously, she glanced outside the door but did not see the stunning woman who sold herself to bury her father. "I know." Pei Shi smiled. Which mother doesn't want her son to have a bright future?
