Lu Lingzhi had been paying attention to the situation in Xia Province. After Chen Jun retreated, he sent people to keep an eye on the city gate of Xia Province. It was not until the moon was high in the sky that the city gate finally opened to one side but was soon closed again. Obviously, someone had returned from outside.
"Mr. Lingzhi, several people have entered the city. There is also a carriage with a woman in it." The man sent by Lu Lingzhi to keep an eye on the city gate of Xia Province came back and reported.
Carriage … Woman …
Lu Lingzhi smiled faintly. It seemed that Ye Zhen had also followed them to Xia Province.
This was good, saving him the trouble of looking for her again.
"Brother, how long are we going to stay here?" Guan Jie scratched the scabbed wound on his arm and looked up at Lu Lingzhi, who had his back to him.
Lu Lingzhi smiled. "We'll be back soon. Do you like that beautiful sister?"
Guan Jie thought carefully. "I like her. Do you want to go with her?"
"If you want to go with her, then you have to find a way to bring her back." Lu Lingzhi said, "Don't worry, go find her when you have the chance."
"Okay." Guan Jie nodded seriously.
Lu Lingzhi smiled and said, "Go to sleep."
Tonight, he could finally sleep well. He had waited for Mo Rongzhan to come.
It was finally time to end the grievances between him and Mo Rongzhan. This time, if Mo Rongzhan did not die, it would be his.
Many times, he would think back to the day when he fed Ye Zhen the poisoned wine.
He wanted to know what happened that day. Was it possible that the person he poisoned was not Ye Zhen at all, but someone else? Otherwise, why did she become Lu Yaoyao?
But if Lu Yaoyao was fake, why didn't Third Uncle notice it?
In any case, he firmly believed that today's Lu Yaoyao was Ye Zhen. His beloved girl had returned. Since she could forgive Mo Rongzhan, she would certainly forgive him as well.
"Yaoyao … Ye Zhen …" Lu Lingzhi looked up at the bright moonlight, a smile on his handsome face.
Guan Jie lowered his head and wanted to go to sleep. Suddenly, he turned his head and asked, "Brother, didn't Sister Shuang 'er say that we can't take that sister back?"
"Do you listen to Shuang 'er or me?" Lu Lingzhi's eyes were cold.
"I'll listen to Big Brother." Guan Jie laughed. "That sister is also good. I like her."
Lu Lingzhi nodded lightly. "Yeah, there's no one who doesn't like her."
She was such a good girl. He didn't know how crazy he was to want to kill her. She was such a crystal-like person. At that time, didn't he also think that Mo Rongzhan was stupid to ignore such a lovely wife?
Wasn't he also blinded by lard to poison her?
…
…
"Ah Zhan …" In her dreams, Ye Zhen mumbled softly as she gripped onto Mo Rongzhan's robes tightly. "Isn't this you … return Ah Zhan to me!"
Mo Rongzhan immediately opened his eyes and skillfully pulled her into his embrace. His lips were close to her ear. "Yaoyao, I'm here. That's not me. I'm by your side. I haven't gone anywhere."
Hearing Mo Rongzhan's low voice, Ye Zhen gradually calmed down in her dream. The corners of her eyes were still a little moist.
She hadn't had nightmares for several days. Today, she was haunted by nightmares again. Mo Rongzhan was distressed. He hugged her and coaxed her while feeling guilty. He hurt her too much at the beginning. Now, she was so afraid that he would forget her. That's why she was so worried that someone would replace her identity.
How could he think of someone else as her again?
Mo Rongzhan stroked her back until she finally fell asleep. Then, he bowed his head and kissed the corner of her lips. "I won't leave you."
The sky brightened in the blink of an eye. Mo Rongzhan was going to inspect the training today, so he got up early.
As soon as he let go of her, Ye Zhen woke up immediately. "Your Majesty …"
Mo Rongzhan chuckled. "I'm going to the barracks to take a look. It's still early. You go back to sleep."
Ye Zhen hooked his finger. "You stay with me for a while."
"Okay." Mo Rongzhan chuckled. He felt that since she was pregnant, she had become more pampered, especially when he was around. He didn't feel annoyed at all. Instead, he wanted her to stay with him.
"Come back and have breakfast with me." Ye Zhen rested her head on Mo Rongzhan's palm. In fact, she couldn't open her eyes. She just couldn't bear to see him leave.
Mo Rongzhan's eyebrows overflowed with a smile. "Okay, I'll come back and have breakfast with you."
Ye Zhen rubbed his palm a few times before turning over and letting go of him. "Okay."
"Are you so reluctant to part with me?" Mo Rongzhan asked against her cheek.
"So what if I'm reluctant?" Ye Zhen snorted.
Mo Rongzhan looked at her slightly pouting mouth and couldn't help but suck it a few times. "I'll be back with you soon."
Yesterday, the soldiers of Xia Province were forced to retreat into the city. In the next few days, he still needed to practice more formations. He wanted to take down Anhe City in one fell swoop, not for anything else, but for Lu Lingzhi, who was now hiding in the city.
He wanted Lu Lingzhi to have nowhere to hide in this world.
As soon as Mo Rongzhan walked out of the backyard, he met Murong Ke, who was also planning to go to the barracks.
"Your Majesty, you're up so early?" Murong Ke smiled and saluted.
"I'm going to the barracks to take a look." Mo Rongzhan smiled faintly.
Murong Ke laughed. "That's a coincidence. I also want to go to the barracks."
"Have you changed your mind and come back to the capital with me?" Mo Rongzhan glanced at him. "Among my brothers, only you and Yi can be trusted."
"Your Majesty, please let me go." Murong Ke said with a bitter smile. "If I return to the capital, I will only cause you trouble."
His identity as the Pavilion Master of Thousand Rakshasa could no longer be concealed. The fact that he risked his life for the Empress in the priest hall would spread. If he went to the capital, others would use him to deal with Yao Yao. He didn't mind, but what about Yao Yao's reputation?
As the Empress, Yao Yao's reputation couldn't be damaged.
Mo Rongzhan shook his head helplessly. "Then what are your plans?"
"There are still many things for Qian Rakshasa," Murong Ke said. "I have to go back and deal with them."
In order to save Yao Yao this time, Qian Rakshasa almost turned out in full force. Although there weren't many casualties, he still had to go back and give an account.
"You saved Yao Yao, and I won't pursue what Qian Rakshasa did in the past," Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice.
Murong Ke smiled. "Then I'll thank Your Majesty on their behalf."
"The business of killing is against the law. It's better not to do it," Mo Rongzhan said faintly.
"Actually, we haven't done this business for a long time." Murong Ke sighed helplessly. "We're conscientious and good citizens now."
Mo Rongzhan snorted. "You're still a prince!"
Murong Ke laughed and asked in a low voice, "I heard that Lu Lingzhi is in Anhe City?"
"Don't think about killing him first. His life is mine," Mo Rongzhan warned coldly.
