Lu Lingzhi watched Ye Zhen vomit once with his own eyes. Although his face was gloomy, he no longer took the initiative to hold her hand. He knew that she only had Mo Rongzhan in her heart, but so what? Mo Rongzhan could not escape Wan Ziliang's 200,000 troops. As long as Mo Rongzhan died, he could really get her.
After dinner, Ye Zhen stood by the window and looked at the small inn. She found that there were no other guests except the innkeeper. Obviously, this was arranged by Lu Lingzhi early in the morning.
She was a little confused. Lu Lingzhi was saved by Qi Ruoshui. With Qi Ruoshui's character, she should not have absolute trust in Lu Lingzhi. Then how did Lu Lingzhi manage his own confidants under her?
With so many people working for him, how could it be done in just a few days?
By the way, she had met Lu Lingzhi twice. He did not seem to mention Lu Wushuang, Liu Shi, and her younger brother. Where did they go? Liu Shi came to find Lu Lingzhi. Since Lu Lingzhi was rescued by Qi Ruoshui, Liu Shi should not be in the wilderness.
"Niang, Lu Lingzhi only took two people with him. Let's leave here in the middle of the night." Hong Ying came in from outside and whispered to Ye Zhen.
Hearing Hong Ying's words, Jianjia shook her head and said, "We can't take risks. On the surface, there are only two people. We don't know how many people are in the dark."
Ye Zhen whispered, "Jianjia is right. Lu Lingzhi can't have only two people with him."
If they want to leave, there must be a surefire way.
"Then what should we do? We must not let Niang be taken to the State of Qi." Hong Ying said anxiously.
"Don't worry." Ye Zhen whispered, "We will find a way to leave."
Is there a way to make Lu Lingzhi undetected? Ye Zhen suddenly had a brainwave.
If there is a chance to poison Lu Lingzhi, it will be much easier for them to leave.
"Do we still have medicinal herbs on us?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
"Niang, we didn't bring anything when we came out." Jianjia said, glancing at Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen carefully thought about what kind of medicine could make people unknowingly take it and make them fall into a coma. She wanted to simply poison Lu Lingzhi to death, but she didn't know who else he had arranged in the dark. If he died, it would be more disadvantageous to them.
At least as long as Lu Lingzhi was alive, their safety could still be guaranteed.
"We're all tired today. Let's sleep." Ye Zhen said that she was not worried about the problem of medicine. She had a large medicine field in her space. Now, she was thinking about which prescription was the most effective.
Hong Ying and Jianjia looked at Ye Rou's plump waist after she took off her outer clothes. "Your Ladyship, rest early."
Ye Zhen touched her belly with one hand and smiled faintly. "Well, go to sleep."
Although her belly was not visible yet, she could already feel the baby wriggling in her belly. Imagining the scene of the baby in her belly made her smile.
If only Mo Rongzhan was by her side right now.
He must be even happier than she was.
Thinking of Mo Rongzhan, Ye Zhen's eyes couldn't help but moisten. Since their marriage, she had not left him for more than three days. Sometimes, even if he was very busy, he would take the time to accompany her for dinner. When she was with him, she always disliked him. Even when he read the memorials in her palace, he liked to hold her. Now, she wanted to hold him to sleep, but he was not by her side.
Ye Zhen remembered her nightmare. On the second day of the dream, she did a divination for Mo Rongzhan. The divination was bad.
She was afraid.
She was afraid that he would have an accident in Xia Province, so she wanted to find him as soon as possible.
Even if he was injured, with her by his side, she could always save him.
Ye Zhen fell asleep in a daze. When she woke up the next day, the sun had already shone in from outside.
"Your Ladyship, you are awake." Hong Ying stood by her side. As soon as she saw Ye Zhen wake up, she breathed a sigh of relief. "You were talking in your sleep last night. This servant couldn't wake you up. It really scared this servant to death."
"I had a dream again?" Ye Zhen asked in surprise. "What did I say?"
The expression on Hong Ying's face was a little strange. "Your Ladyship, what you said in your dream was nonsense. This servant didn't understand. I only heard that you kept asking the Emperor not to forget you."
What she didn't say was that Ye Zhen kept talking in her sleep that I am Yao Yao, I am Ye Zhen.
These words were so horrifying that Hong Ying dared not speak for her. The former empress was already dead. It was too unlucky for the Ladyship to say that she was the former empress.
Ye Zhen sat up, feeling a little heavy. "What time is it?"
"Your Ladyship, it's still early."
"Lu Lingzhi has been here." Ye Zhen saw the food box on the table and frowned slightly.
Hong Ying curled her lips. "He knows that Your Ladyship is still sleeping and asked us not to disturb you."
Ye Zhen smiled faintly. "Comb my hair for me."
After washing her face with cold water, Ye Zhen felt a little better. She must have cried in her dream. Her eyes looked a little swollen. She applied the spring water to them for a while before she felt better.
Just after breakfast, Lu Lingzhi came to look for her.
"Yao Yao, did you sleep well last night?" Lu Lingzhi looked at her with a smile and sat down opposite her.
"Not good." Ye Zhen said faintly.
Lu Lingzhi smiled. "You are spoiled. This kind of place is not suitable for you. Next time, I will choose a better place to stay."
"You are very capable now." Ye Zhen glanced at him. "I heard that First Madam went to the wilderness to find you. Where are they?"
"Why do you suddenly ask about them?" Lu Lingzhi asked, amused.
Ye Zhen said faintly, "I care about Third Brother."
Lu Zan was good to her, so it was natural for her to care about him.
"They are very good." Lu Lingzhi said simply, as if he didn't want to mention Liu Shi and the others in front of Ye Zhen.
"With Lu Wushuang?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile. "It seems that you two siblings are quite capable."
Lu Lingzhi sighed softly. "Yao Yao, if you don't want to see Wushuang, you will never see her again in this life. As for the others, you can see them if you want to, or not."
"When are we leaving?" Ye Zhen asked faintly.
"We are in a hurry. We are about to leave." Lu Lingzhi said softly.
Ye Zhen frowned. "I want to go out for a walk and buy something."
"What do you want to buy? Just let someone buy it." Lu Lingzhi smiled. He was very satisfied that Yao Yao could talk to him calmly now.
"Medicine shop, I want to go to the medicine shop." Ye Zhen said.
Lu Lingzhi smiled. "Now that no one is injured, why do you want to buy medicine? This is just a small place. I am afraid the medicine in the medicine shop is uneven."
"If you don't want me to go to the medicine shop, just say it." Ye Zhen snorted.
"I know your medical skills are good." Lu Lingzhi said with a smile.
