How could she not remember what the palace maid looked like? Although she was not a stunning beauty, her eyebrows were beautiful and her temperament was very good. She was by no means comparable to ordinary palace maids. Zhao Yang naturally remembered her very clearly.
"I remember, but it's strange. When you and the emperor arrived, she retreated and never appeared again." Zhao Yang said.
The more Ye Zhen listened, the more she felt strange. The empress dowager did not particularly value the palace maid except for Aunt Cheng. What kind of person would deliberately avoid her and Mo Rongzhan? Suddenly, she thought of Ye Yaoyao.
"It's good that you remember. Go back and draw a portrait for me!" Ye Zhen grabbed Zhao Yang's hand and shouted.
"I haven't painted people for a long time. I may not be able to draw a good likeness."
Ye Zhen and Zhao Yang were both apprentices of Mister Dan. She naturally knew how good Zhao Yang was at painting people. Even if the portrait she drew was not exactly similar, it was at least 80%.
"If you can't draw a good likeness, then no one can draw a similar one." Ye Zhen said.
"Thank you very much for your kindness." Zhao Yang gave her a stern look.
Not long after their carriage drove out of the palace, they saw Ye Yiqing galloping over on horseback.
"Daddy!" Ye Zhen called out.
Ye Yiqing only wanted to enter the palace as soon as possible and did not notice Ye Zhen's carriage. When he heard her voice, he hurriedly pulled the reins.
He dismounted neatly and came to the carriage. He looked up at Zhao Yang and asked Ye Zhen in a low voice, "Are you all right?"
"It's all right. Fortunately, the emperor is here." Ye Zhen whispered, "Daddy, are you going to the palace to save Zhao Yang?"
Ye Zhen sat down next to Zhao Yang and squeezed her hand. "It's good that you're all right. Let's go back first."
On the way, Ye Zhen had already told Ye Yiqing everything that had happened. "… The culprit is the second wangfei. She just can't bear to see Zhao Yang live a good life. Knowing that Zhao Yang has returned, she now has the idea of Zhao Yang's dowry. If she knew that Beitang Cheng had given all the land to Zhao Yang, I think she would shamelessly come and snatch it."
"You don't have to worry about this He Shi. I have a way to deal with it." Ye Yiqing said in a cold voice. He had never been calculative with women, but if they violated his bottom line and principles, he would definitely not hold back.
Zhao Yang said in a low voice, "His Majesty has already given the decree, so my matter is no longer a problem. What I'm worried about now is Yao Yao."
Ye Zhen looked at her with a smile. "What are you worried about?"
"The Empress Dowager was so angry that she vomited blood today. In the future, she will definitely put this on your head. I am worried that your days in the palace will not be easy." Zhao Yang felt distressed when she thought of Ye Zhen's previous days in Prince Qin's Mansion. It was not easy for her and Mo Rongzhan to fall in love with each other, but the Empress Dowager was so displeased.
"I don't live in the palace with the Empress Dowager. She lives in the Palace of Compassionate and Peaceful. If she doesn't want to see me, I will show my face less in front of her. How can she make things difficult for me?" Ye Zhen smiled lightly.
Ye Yiqing glanced at his daughter. "As long as you don't think about her past friendship, there's naturally no need to worry."
"Yes." Ye Zhen nodded gently.
"Don't leave Gourd Alley these days. No matter who comes to the Prince's Mansion, don't see them." Ye Yiqing said to Zhao Yang.
Zhao Yang nodded with a smile. "I didn't intend to see them anyway."
Ye Yiqing nodded with satisfaction. This way, there was no need to worry about someone coming to her to plead for mercy.
After sending Zhao Yang back to Gourd Alley, Ye Yiqing just whispered to her that he would come back later and left with Ye Zhen.
"Have a good rest today. I will come to see the portrait tomorrow." Ye Zhen said to Zhao Yang.
Zhao Yang smiled, "I will have someone send it to you when I finish it."
"What portrait do you want Zhao Yang to draw?" Ye Yiqing asked Ye Zhen as he walked.
"Zhao Yang said that she saw a very beautiful woman beside the Empress Dowager. I used to accompany the Empress Dowager but have never seen a palace maid like what Zhao Yang said. When I and the Emperor arrived at the Palace of Compassionate and Peaceful, the palace maid disappeared. I think it is very strange, so I want to know what the palace maid looks like."
Ye Yiqing narrowed his eyes slightly. "I have seen her. The Empress Dowager trusts her very much."
"Does she look like Ye Yaoyao?" Ye Zhen asked hurriedly.
"I have never seen Ye Yaoyao." Ye Yiqing said, "The palace maid Zhao Yang saw should be the one I saw last time in the Palace of Compassionate and Peaceful."
Ye Zhen knocked her forehead. She almost forgot that her father had never seen Ye Yaoyao. It seemed that she had to see Zhao Yang's portrait to know. "Daddy, are you going to attack the Prince's Mansion?" Ye Zhen asked.
"I need your help in this matter." Ye Yiqing whispered.
"What do you need your daughter to do?" Ye Zhen asked immediately. She had long wanted to teach the second princess and Chu Yang a lesson, but now she felt a little sympathy for them. Who wouldn't provoke but her father? They will surely regret it.
Ye Yiqing pondered for a moment. "Zhao Yang was born in the Prince's Mansion. There is no need to be too cruel. Let Madam He's reputation be ruined. There is no need to take her name. As for Zhao Yang's eldest brother … whatever."
"…" Ye Zhen felt that there was no need to be too cruel. Wasn't it more miserable to let Madam He's reputation be ruined than to let her die? A childless widow? A widow has no one to rely on. With her father's intention, he intends to expose the affair between her and Chu Yang. Can Madam He still survive in the capital?
"You know medicine. You should know how to spread the news of her pregnancy." Ye Yiqing whispered.
Ye Zhen was taken aback. "Father, how do you know that Madam He is pregnant?"
"The people around her said it." Ye Yiqing said faintly. As early as he found out about the affair between Madam He and Chu Yang, he had already investigated everything. He just thought that Zhao Yang belonged to the Prince's Mansion after all, so he did not intend to reveal such a scandal. Now, it was no longer his fault.
"Father, you are really resourceful." Ye Zhen praised.
Ye Yiqing smiled faintly. "Money makes the world go round."
"Then leave this matter to me." Ye Zhen smiled. If Mo Rongzhan hadn't arrived in time at the Palace of Compassionate and Peaceful today, the Empress Dowager would have given Zhao Yang the Chastity Memorial Arch.
Which widow? Can a widow remarry while guarding the Chastity Memorial Arch? Unless her hands and feet are tied and thrown into the river, she can only remarry if she survives.
The Empress Dowager wanted nothing more than to use Zhao Yang to attack her and her father. However, all of this was caused by the second princess. If she is not taught a lesson this time, she will definitely continue to use bad ideas in the future.
"There is one more thing …" Ye Yiqing whispered. "Regarding the Empress Dowager's hypnosis, perhaps you can ask Huang Fuchen. His family's ancestor is that Qi Yanling. The books she left behind are almost everything from astronomy to geography. Perhaps Huang Fuchen will know the solution."
Qi Yanling was a legend. Only Ye Yiqing knew that she had traveled through time. Regarding the hypnosis that appeared in this era, it might be related to her.
