After Ye Zhen knew why Mo Rongzhan went to Anhe City, she had a strange premonition in her heart, as if something was about to happen. But now, her divination had no result. The divinations were so strange that she couldn't understand them.
What she was most worried about was that the nightmare would come true, so she couldn't sleep well these days. She always woke up from her dreams.
"Another nightmare?" Mo Rongzhan found that the person in his arms was breathing very fast and immediately opened his eyes to look at her.
"Did I wake you up?" Ye Zhen turned over in his arms and stared at him face to face.
Mo Rongzhan touched her sweaty forehead. "What did I do to make you so uneasy?"
"I'm just imagining things." Ye Zhen laughed. "Maybe pregnant women have become strange." "That's right.
"Yao Yao, what are you afraid of? Because Lu Lingzhi appeared again, so you remembered … those things? Thinking of how we hurt you in the past … "Mo Rongzhan hugged her tightly. These past few days, listening to her ravings in her dreams, his heart was about to break. Just how deep had he hurt her in the past to make the fear in her heart so deep?
Yes, Mo Rongzhan felt that Ye Zhen was hurt too badly, so when she saw Lu Lingzhi again, she remembered the past, leading to the most hidden fear in her heart.
Ye Zhen shook her head gently. "No, that feeling … It's like when I stood in front of you, but you didn't see me. I could only watch you treat Lu Wushuang as me, and watch you dote on other women. In your eyes, I don't exist." Ye Zhen shook her head gently.
"That's even more impossible. You are no longer the former Ye Zhen. You are my empress. How can I not see you?" Mo Rongzhan said.
"That's right." Ye Zhen smiled. She turned her head to look at the sky outside. "What time is it?"
Mo Rongzhan whispered, "It's just dawn. You should sleep for a while."
"Are we going to Xia Province?" Ye Zhen asked. "What are you going to do with Qi Ruoshui? Are you going to take her back to the capital like this?"
"I will give her to Huang Fuchen." Mo Rongzhan gently stroked Ye Zhen's back. "There is a man named Chu Li beside Qi Ruoshui. He used to be Jin Xiong's deputy general. I had him brought to the wilderness."
Ye Zhen said, "I heard that it was General Jin's former confidant who came to Jin Shanshan to find out about Wan Ziliang's plot in time."
"Indeed." Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice, "That's why your brother begged Chu Li. He probably wants to avenge Jin Shanshan."
"Fortunately, I had Shan Shan to accompany me in the Priest Hall." Ye Zhen pressed her face against Mo Rongzhan's chest and couldn't help yawning.
Mo Rongzhan smiled and said, "Sleep a little longer. If there's anything else, we'll talk about it when you wake up."
When she woke up, she would have to leave for Xia Zhou again. He did not spend much time with her on the road. He kept discussing something with Murong Ke and did not let her know. Hmph.
Although Ye Zhen thought so, she couldn't overcome her tiredness and fell into a deep sleep after a while.
Mo Rongzhan's fingertips gently stroked her white and smooth cheek. In fact, after her dreams these days, he thought of her magical rebirth and was still a little worried. He was not afraid of other things, but he was afraid that he would hurt her again.

…
Jin Kingdom, Palace of Benevolence and Peace in the capital.
The Empress Dowager had just learned from the cabinet minister that the border and Western Liang had begun to negotiate peace, and that General Wan Ziliang of the Dark North Kingdom had escaped with serious injuries. Not only that, the Emperor had rescued the Empress and was taking her to Xia Zhou.
This was probably the best news he had received in the past few months.
However, the good news did not make the Empress Dowager very happy.
"Elder sister, why are you sighing again?" The one who spoke was a man in his forties or fifties. He had a round figure and a pretty face, somewhat resembling the Empress Dowager. However, he seemed to be a person who liked to drink and indulge in women. His eyes were dark and cloudy, which made people dislike him.
This man was the Empress Dowager's younger brother, Qiu Yaozong. Last month, his family came to the capital from the City of Wei and lived in the mansion given by the Empress Dowager. Although the Empress Dowager had given him the title of Marquis, it was only an empty title. Qiu Yaozong came to the capital this time to fight for an official position with real power, so he put all his hopes on the Empress Dowager.
"It seems that the Emperor should return to the capital soon." The Empress Dowager said in a low voice. It was not that she favored her youngest son. When she was bullied in the palace, it was always Ah Yi who accompanied her. She inevitably valued him more. Sometimes she couldn't help but think that it would be good if Ah Yi was the Emperor now.
This idea just flashed by, and she did not dare to think about it. If it weren't for Ah Yi dealing with state affairs on behalf of the Emperor this time, she wouldn't know that she had such extravagant thoughts in her heart.
She originally had a bit of selfishness, but now it seemed that this selfishness was useless.
"It's a good thing that the Emperor is back. Why does Eldest Sister look a little unhappy?" Qiu Yaozong asked, puzzled. He had been chanting scriptures every day in hopes that the Emperor would come back soon so that he could think of a way to please this nephew of his. If he wanted beauties, he could have beauties. If he wanted silver, he could give silver. As long as he could be given a useful title of Marquis, that would be enough.
"You don't know, but our Emperor … is not so easy to get along with." The Empress Dowager snorted coldly. "When the time comes, if you want to ask for something, you can't ask Aijia. You can only go to the Empress. Only the Empress' words are useful to the Emperor."
Qiu Yaozong said with a smile, "Eldest Sister, isn't it just a woman? When the time comes, I will send a few beautiful fairies to the Emperor and the Empress will immediately fall out of favor. "
The Empress Dowager looked at her younger brother with disgust. "Idiot, are there no beauties in the palace? If the Emperor liked them, would he still favor the Empress so much? "
This … could it be that the Empress was very beautiful? Qiu Yaozong thought in his heart. "Eldest Sister, you are the Emperor's biological mother after all. Does he not listen to you?"
"If it weren't for the war, I would still be forced to recuperate in Chengde Villa. Do you think he would care about me?" The Empress Dowager asked with a sneer.
"Hey, Eldest Sister, you don't have to worry. The Emperor doted on the Empress in the past. Wasn't the Empress just kidnapped? No matter how much the Emperor likes the Empress, won't he have doubts in his heart? As long as he has doubts, everything will be easy. "Qiu Yaozong laughed.
The Empress Dowager's eyes moved. "You mean …"
"Bastard!" Mo Rongyi's angry voice came from outside. "When Sister-in-law Empress was taken away by Qi Ruoshui, she was already pregnant. You damn bastard, how dare you maliciously humiliate her. When my brother comes back, it won't be too much to kill your entire family!"
Qiu Yaozong was so scared that he almost knelt on the ground.
