Ye Zhen has never met Zhao Rao before, but she only knows from other people that Princess Qi is a very smart and powerful woman. Although she is only a little girl, she can use the eldest prince in the palm of her hand to fight the second prince to the death. The courtiers of the Qi State spoke highly of the eldest princess.
It is extremely difficult for a princess who attaches so much importance to power to have a good opinion from the courtiers.
She has always wanted to know what kind of person Zhao Rao is. If Zhao Rao hadn't wanted to use Zhao Ning, Zhao Ning would not have agreed to Murong Zhan's request, let alone marry Murong Yi. The princess indirectly affected her life, so it would be a pity not to see it with my own eyes.
"Zhao Yong seems to be the only daughter of Zhao Rao?" Ye Zhen asked Mo Rongzhan, "Have you seen her?"
Mo Rongzhan shook his head lightly, "I've only heard of it, but I haven't seen it. Zhao Yong asked her to come to the capital city. There must be a purpose. Don't underestimate this woman."
He doesn't think Ye Zhen is not as smart as Zhao Rao, it's just that the living environment of the two of them is different since they were young. Zhao Rao grew up in the harem and experienced all kinds of intrigues and conspiracies since childhood, while Ye Zhen is pampered and pampered by Ye Yiqing. Growing up, Zhao Rao is too smart and understands human nature, otherwise she wouldn't have such good contacts in Qi State, and she appeared in Wangducheng not only to attend the founding ceremony of the country.
"Of course I won't underestimate her." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "I'm just curious about what kind of woman she is."
Murong Zhan nodded, "I'll see you in a few days."
Zhao Rao will definitely attend the founding ceremony.
"At that time, there will be a lot of people and things, so how can we see it clearly." Ye Zhen said, "By the way, today we discussed whether to communicate with Jinkou City. If we set up a port, Jinkou City's merchant ships can berth at the port of Bailongjiang gone."
Murong Zhan nodded with a smile. They have already said this matter, so he naturally agreed to re-alliance with the Yuan Kingdom. At the beginning, he ordered that the merchant ships of the Dongqing Kingdom not berth at Jinkou City. It was aimed at Li Heng. Ya, of course there is nothing to say.
"Shui Yichen is definitely against it." Mo Rongzhan said quietly, even if she hadn't said it, he could already guess the ending.
Ye Zhen looked at him in surprise, "How do you know?"
"You said that Shui Yichen is an overlord merchant in China. He should be very clear about the necessity of the existence of the port. He is afraid that he will be controlled by the Kingdom of Jin in the future." Murong Zhan sneered in his heart, what idea did Shui Yichen have in his mind? It's very clear, isn't it just that you want Yuan Guo to keep a distance from Jin Guo? Afraid that in the future when the Yuan Kingdom and Jinhui would merge, his existence as a great general would no longer be useful
"It's not unreasonable for him to be worried." Ye Zhen nodded lightly, and immediately felt the man beside her hold her hand tightly. She leaned against Murong Zhan's arm and said softly, "Shui Yichen is from the Hua Kingdom. The one who came here doesn’t know what happened to us before, and he doesn’t understand Jinkou City, he will understand after a few days.”
Murong Zhan snorted coldly, "Did he forget that you are still my queen?"
"Does it matter if he remembers? I just need to know." Ye Zhen coaxed Mo Rongzhan, "Anyway, this matter will not be finalized until after the founding ceremony, and it is not yet determined how to reopen the port."
…
…
The matter of the port was put aside by Ye Zhen for the time being. After the founding ceremony, she will discuss it again. Seeing that the founding ceremony is coming soon, more and more distinguished guests are coming to the capital city, and everyone is busy with it stand up.
Ye Zhen also finally met Lu Shiming's family who came from Jin Kingdom.
Mrs. Pei saw her daughter's dystocia and fell into a coma with her own eyes, so when she saw Ye Zhen standing in front of her, she couldn't hold back her tears, "You stinky girl... you scared me to death, why are you so cruel?" , two years in one go!"
"Mother..." Ye Zhen looked at Lu Shiming for help. She didn't know that she was taken away unconscious at the time, "Didn't I come back?"
It's rare for Lu Shiming not to help Ye Zhen. You must know that when he knew the news of his daughter's dystocia, he was also sad for a long time. Although it was not his own daughter, he raised it in his hands. There was news of... his death.
Pei scolded, "Why haven't you come back these two years? You have to fight again... What if you get injured? You are already a mother, why don't you worry about it at all."
Ye Zhen didn't know how to tell Mrs. Pei not to cry, she blinked at Lu Xiangzhi and begged him to help.
"Mother, it's a good thing for my sister to come back. Don't just cry, let's sit down first and listen to my sister talk about what happened in the past two years." After all, Lu Xiangzhi doted on his sister, so he helped her.
"Shut up!" Mrs. Pei glared at Lu Xiang, "Don't call me until you get married."
"..." Lu Xiang was speechless for a while, why did he provoke his mother again.
Ye Zhen looked at Lu Xiangzhi in surprise, "Brother isn't married yet? Isn't he already engaged to Miss Su?"
This is which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted! Lu Xiangzhi glared at Ye Zhen angrily, "Let's talk about this later, Yaoyao, didn't you have two children? Where are they? Bring them here for Mom and Dad to see."
When mentioning the grandson and granddaughter they had never met, Pei immediately lost all anger and even shed tears, "That's right, where are Mingxi and Mingyu, why didn't they see anyone?"
Ye Zhen said with a smile, "Just came back from the upper study, the emperor took them to play with kites, I have sent someone to bring them here."
"You came back with two children, the emperor... did you say anything?" Pei asked in a low voice.
"Who did he say, happy." Ye Zhen smiled. She knew what Pei was worried about. At the beginning, there were rumors against her in the capital, and it was said that her child was not Mo Rongzhan's. Difficult childbirth, and suddenly came back with two children, there must be someone in Jinguo who wants to make irresponsible remarks.
Pei Shi wanted to say something more, but she had already heard the child's tender and clear laughter from outside, and she immediately suppressed all the words.
Murong Zhan walked in with a child in his arms.
"I have seen the emperor." Lu Shiming and the others immediately stood up and saluted, but looked straight at Mingxi and Mingyu.
"It's all from my family, so don't be too polite, let's all sit down and talk." Mo Rongzhan said with a smile, and put the two children down, "Go and salute to grandfather and grandmother, as well as uncle."
Mingxi and Mingyu had heard Ye Zhen mention about Lu Shiming's family a long time ago. They knew that they had two grandfathers, grandmothers and uncles. .”
Seeing these two children, Mrs. Pei immediately felt pain in her heart, and hugged them in her arms and called them sweethearts.
