This temporary residence was originally the residence of a general of the Northern Underworld Kingdom. After Xia Province was recaptured by the Jin Kingdom, the general and his family returned to the Northern Underworld Kingdom. The residence was vacated, leaving only a few servants who could not be taken away, so it was used as a temporary residence.
Ye Zhen lived in the courtyard of the upper house. Outside the courtyard, there was a large garden. The garden was an artificial lake. Now that it was spring, the flowers in the garden were in full bloom, each with its own characteristics. The willows by the lake were fluttering in the wind, making people feel good just by looking at them.
"This garden is very unique." Ye Zhen smiled at Mo Rongzhan.
Mo Rongzhan took her hand and walked slowly by the lake. "I didn't notice it before, but today I feel that this garden is pleasing to the eye."
"Is that because I am not by your side and you have no mood to appreciate it?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
"Indeed." Mo Rongzhan's eyebrows were full of smiles. He rubbed her palm. "I don't live in this residence for long. I spend more time in the barracks."
Ye Zhen sighed. "Although this place is not as good as the imperial garden, it is more relaxing."
Mo Rongzhan looked down at her. "It's been so long. Do you still not like life in the palace?"
"No, with you around, it's the same everywhere. It's just that there are too many people in the palace. No matter what I do or say, I have to think twice. In the palace, I can only speak unscrupulously in front of you." Ye Zhen sighed. "Can we go out of the palace often in the future?"
"I will accompany you in the future, anywhere is fine." Mo Rongzhan said with a smile. "If this is the eldest son of the emperor, I will teach him to become a talent as soon as possible and let him inherit the great cause earlier. Then, I can accompany you to travel the mountains and rivers, even to the sea."
Ye Zhen listened with a smile on her face and couldn't help but snuggle into Mo Rongzhan's arms. "This is what you said.
Mo Rongzhan laughed aloud. "When did I lie to you?"
"Don't you still have a lot of memorials to read? Go back and read them. I will walk in this garden. " Ye Zhen reached out and straightened his clothes for him. She knew that he would be very busy in the coming days. In addition to the backlog of memorials, the war with Anhe City was imminent. Although she wanted to spend more time with him, she hoped that he would solve the problem of Anhe City as soon as possible.
"We will accompany you for another walk." Mo Rongzhan said.
Ye Rou laughed, "I won't go anywhere else. Don't I still have Hong Ying and Jianjia?"
Mo Rongzhan kissed her cheek. "Don't tire yourself out by walking. We will go back and review the memorials first. You will accompany us in a while."
"Okay." Ye Zhen nodded with a smile.
"Take good care of the Empress," Mo Rongzhan instructed.
Hong Ying and Jianjia bowed, "Yes, Emperor."
Ye Zhen smiled and watched Mo Rongzhan's figure gradually go away. She turned back and continued to walk along the lake.
"Niang niang, this slave inquired yesterday. When the emperor was in Xia Province, there were indeed some people who wanted to please the emperor and sent concubines, but they were all sent away by the emperor. One time, the emperor was angry, so those people dared not try to please the emperor again." Hong Ying whispered beside Ye Zhen. "Niang niang, this slave inquired yesterday.
"You actually agreed to this?" Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows and gave her an angry look.
Hong Ying smiled mischievously, "This servant is superfluous. Please forgive me, Niang niang."
As the Empress's personal palace maid, Hong Ying naturally thought for the Empress's sake first. Before the Emperor found them, she often heard the Empress begging the Emperor not to forget her in her nightmares. Although she felt that the Emperor doted on the Empress so much and would never do anything to make her sad, there was no absolute in this world. Therefore, she must put an end to all people and things that would hurt the Empress.
If there were any women hiding in Xia Province, she could find them first.
Jianjia reprimanded her, "The Emperor and the Empress have deep feelings for each other. If you act on your own again, be careful of your skin."
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "Hong Ying did this for this Empress. Forget it, but don't do it again."
"Yes, Niang niang." Hong Ying nodded immediately.
"In the past, when this girl first came to this consort's side, she was still very wooden. Now, she's become much more quick-witted," said Ye Rou with a smile. The current Hong Ying was like a completely different person from the maid who had just arrived at the Lu family.
Jianjia said with a smile, "That's because the Empress has taught her well."
Ye Zhen sat down in the pavilion by the lake and looked at Jianjia and Hong Ying with narrowed eyes. "You two have reached the age of marriage. Tell me, do you have a partner in mind?" Ye Zhen's eyes lit up.
"Niang niang …" Both Jianjia and Hong Ying blushed.
"This is a major event in life. What is there to be shy about?" Ye Zhen looked at them with a smile.
Jianjia whispered, "This servant has never thought of marrying. I will stay by your side and serve you for the rest of my life."
"You can't stay with this Empress." Ye Zhen said, "If it weren't for Qi Ruoshui, you would be in the medical workshop now. I don't know how it is now."
The medical workshop could be said to be Ye Zhen's painstaking efforts. She hoped that the medical workshop could be run for a long time. She believed that when she was not in the capital, Hou Peidong would be able to run it well.
Hong Ying smiled and said, "Niang niang, when the Emperor leads his troops to Anhe City, we can return to the capital."
"Back to the capital?" Murong Ke had just come over and heard Hong Ying's words. He looked at her in surprise, "Are you going back so soon?"
Ye Zhen stood up. "Sixth Wangye."
A faint smile appeared on Murong Ke's handsome and elegant face. He lifted his feet and walked to the pavilion. "Yao Yao, are you going back to the capital?"
"No, I just said it casually." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "Is Sixth Wangye here to see the Emperor?"
"I passed by the garden and saw you here, so I came over." Murong Ke said with a smile.
Ye Zhen waved her hand. "Wangye, please sit down."
"If you call me Wangye, I don't know how to talk to you." Murong Ke said with a wry smile. This was not the palace, and he didn't want to get along with her like a stranger.
"Then what should I call you, Pavilion Master?" Pavilion Master? "Ye Zhen winked slyly.
Murong Ke couldn't help but laugh. "Actually, I came here to ask you for a favor."
"What is it?" In fact, Ye Zhen didn't want to get along with Murong Ke so strangely. It would be good if they could get along like friends.
Friends …
Ye Zhen felt inexplicable bitterness in her heart. Since she was betrayed by Lu Lingzhi, she never dared to treat anyone as a friend. Murong Ke was the only friend she could trust wholeheartedly after her rebirth.
"Don't let the Emperor lead troops to Anhe City." Murong Ke whispered. He was still worried. Although it was a dream, everything he saw today was exactly the same as what he saw in his dream.
He even heard that the general of Anhe City was called Chen Jun in his dream. Before he came here, he didn't think about it. But when he heard that Chen Jun was the general of Anhe City, many memories were awakened in his dream.
He felt that Mo Rongzhan would be in danger if he went to Anhe City, so he must stop him.
