The man was dressed in a sky-blue brocade robe. His pale, thin, handsome face was angular and his eyes were like warm white jade. He stared at her with deep and gentle eyes and a shallow smile on his thin lips.
Ye Zhen was stunned. When her eyes met with Murong Ke's, she felt as if she had been separated for years. She did not dare to think of him these days. The lingering guilt and pain in her heart made her cry. She thought she would never see him again.
Murong Ke …
He is still alive! He woke up!
"Your Highness, it's … it's the Sixth Wangye." Jianjia also smiled and looked at Murong Ke with great joy.
Murong Ke walked over slowly, his eyes as brilliant as the morning stars in the sky. "Yao Yao, I finally found you."
How could he not feel that it was a lifetime ago? He thought that he did not know how long it would be before he could see her again. He did not expect such a coincidence. Originally, Song Jiong had planned to go out of the city, but he suddenly wanted to stop and saw Hong Ying catching the thief.
"You woke up, you finally woke up." Ye Zhen's voice was a little choked. She took a deep breath and reluctantly smiled.
Murong Ke came to the side of the carriage and looked up at her affectionately. "Yes, I woke up."
Ye Zhen suddenly did not know what to say. She seemed to have a lot to say, but she could not say a word.
"Let's go out of the city first. Say anything on the road." Murong Ke said with a smile.
Song Jiong immediately said, "I will drive the carriage."
Jianjia walked to the side of the horse. "Then I will ride."
They hitched the other horse to the carriage. Murong Ke and Ye Zhen sat in the carriage. Hong Ying knew that they had a lot to say, so she took the initiative to sit on the shaft. She could not help but whisper to Song Jiong, "When did your Lord wake up?"
"We woke up not long after we left. The Lord was very angry when he woke up, so we came to you immediately." Song Jiong said with a silly smile.
Hong Ying curled her lips. "Why didn't I see Teng Ye?"
"The Lord was angry with him and did not let him follow." Song Jiong said.
"He deserves it!" Hong Ying snorted. She felt that Teng Ye had inexplicable hostility towards her Highness. It was best that he did not follow.
Song Jiong smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Teng Ye is actually... too concerned about Pavilion Master."
Murong Ke and Ye Zhen, who were in the carriage, heard the conversation outside. They looked up at each other and laughed silently.
"Yao Yao, thank you." Murong Ke said in a low voice, "If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be in this world anymore."
Ye Zhen shook her head. "You don't have to thank me. You were locked in the Gu Cave by Qi Ruoshui to save me. If you want to thank someone, it is me who should thank you."
Murong Ke had already deliberately not recalled those days in Priest Hall. That pain was too deep, he would rather not recall it for the rest of his life. "Then let's not say thanks anymore."
"Alright." Ye Rou chuckled. "When you were unconscious, you didn't have a heartbeat or breathing. Teng Ye thought you … That's why he was so nervous. Don't blame him too much."
"I did not blame him." Murong Ke lightly said, he would not blame Teng Ye, but he also did not plan to forgive him so quickly.
Ye Zhen glanced at him. "Give me your hand, and I'll check your pulse."
She was a little worried that the injury on his body had not fully recovered, so she wanted to check it for him.
Murong Ke smiled and stretched out his hand. "After I woke up, I felt that all the pain had disappeared. Even my internal force seemed to have strengthened. I think there is no problem."
"Really?" Ye Zhen was a little surprised. She gently put her hand on his pulse. Indeed, his pulse was normal. It seemed that his previous injuries had been healed. The little bird did not lie to her. It said that as long as Murong Ke could wake up within three days, he would be fine. Indeed, he was fine.
"When I was unconscious, I kept dreaming." Murong Ke looked up at Ye Zhen. He did not know what was going on in his dream, but he always felt as if he had experienced it himself.
Because the situation in the dream was the same as reality, except … he did not see Yao Yao from beginning to end, as if she did not exist in his dream.
"Do you remember what you dreamed of?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile.
"I can't remember." Murong Ke smiled faintly.
He could not possibly say that he dreamed that something would happen to Ah Zhan not long after, and that he would disappear for a period of time. When he came back, he could not remember anything, but there was a woman by his side. He made her an imperial concubine and doted on her for a long time.
Strangely, there was no Yao Yao in his dream. Ah Zhan did not seem to have an empress.
If it was true, where did Yao Yao go?
The dream was too ridiculous. How could Ah Zhan like another woman? How could Yao Yao not appear? It was probably the greed in his heart that made him dream of such things.
"Why did Lu Lingzhi capture you?" Murong Ke asked in a low voice.
Ye Zhen raised her brows in disgust. "He mistook me for Ye Zhen."
Murong Ke was stunned. Only then did he remember that Ye Zhen was Yao Yao's twin sister, Ah Zhan's former Princess Qin. Lu Lingzhi mistook Yao Yao for Ye Zhen? "I remember that Ye Zhen was poisoned by Lu Lingzhi himself."
Why was he behaving in such a way that no one could understand?
"Yes, so he wanted to atone for his sins, so he mistook me for her." Ye Zhen said sarcastically, "He wanted to take me to the Qi Kingdom. I think he must have something hidden in the Qi Kingdom."
Murong Ke had never seen Lu Lingzhi, but listening to Yao Yao's words, he felt that this man was shameless and ridiculous. For the sake of power, he killed the woman he liked. Now that he saw Yao Yao, who resembled Ye Zhen, he regarded her as a target to atone for his sins. If he saw such a person in the future, he must kill him. Otherwise, keeping him alive would only harm Yao Yao.
"Now that I am here, I will not let Lu Lingzhi have a chance to take you away again." Murong Ke said in a deep voice.
Ye Zhen looked at him and smiled slightly. "I know that Lu Lingzhi has a younger sister named Lu Wushuang. She should also be in the Qi Kingdom."
"Lu Wushuang? Isn't that the former imperial concubine? "Murong Ke raised his eyebrows and asked. She was still alive!
Could it be that the woman he saw in his dream was this Lu Wushuang?
"Yes, the emperor has ordered her to die. It was Lu Lingzhi who rescued her." Ye Zhen said lightly.
"Then … where are you going next? Are you looking for Lord Ye? "Murong Ke didn't want to be controlled by that strange dream again and forced himself not to think about it again.
"I want to go to the emperor." Ye Zhen said. She missed Mo Rongzhan very much. No matter what happened, she wanted to stay with him.
Murong Ke was slightly startled when he heard the words, then nodded with a smile. This answer was actually not surprising. He should have guessed that she only thought about Mo Rongzhan.
"Well, then let's go to Anhe City." Murong Ke said.
