When Ye Zhen met Shui Yichen for the first time in Huaguo, she knew that this man was not just a businessman. The last thing she expected was that he would leave Huaguo and follow her to attack Dongqingguo and create Yuanguo. Sheng Shi, when she saw his eyes today, she understood a little bit, but she didn't want to understand too much, sometimes it's better to know than to know.
She knew that he would not betray her, but he was also an ambitious person, but he didn't realize it.
"If we hadn't come back, would you join hands with Cheng Zheng?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice, looking at Shui Yichen brightly.
Shui Yichen wanted to blurt out that he would not, but he hesitated because he knew that maybe there was a possibility.
"It's meaningless to say these things now." Ye Zhen smiled, "Even if Cheng Zheng really wants to cooperate with Yuan Guo, he will definitely become your enemy in the future."
"How did you kill him?" Shui Yichen also knew that it was meaningless to ask some questions now, he just wanted to make sure that she trusted her.
"One arrow pierces the heart." Ye Zhen said lightly, "My archery skills are pretty good."
Being able to kill Cheng Zheng is not only good.
Shui Yichen had seen Ye Zhen's archery skills before, and felt that although her archery skills were superb, she was not yet able to kill Cheng Zheng, so she was hiding something.
However, he is not in a hurry for her to tell the truth, she will definitely say it in the future.
"Since you're back, why don't you go back to the palace before dark?" Shui Yichen asked in a low voice. She is still the concubine of Yuan Kingdom, so she naturally wants to live in the palace.
Ye Zhen glanced at Mo Rongzhan, she smiled and said, "Just go back to the palace, it's been so many years, I don't think many people remember Tianfei, we live in my father's old courtyard , and... I killed Cheng Zheng, Zhao Rao will definitely not let it go, and save her from coming to trouble you."
"Empress Tianfei, we all remember you." Shen Luoyang said hastily.
Shui Yichen's voice was slightly cold, "What you mean by this is that you treat all of our subordinates who have followed you through life and death as outsiders. Do you think we are afraid of Qi because we are greedy for life and afraid of death?"
"That's not what I meant." Ye Zhen said.
"What does that mean?" Shui Yichen frowned, he felt a gap appeared between them, he didn't feel this way before.
Mo Rongzhan, who had been silent all this time, said in a low voice, "I went to save Zhao Ning, it's our family business, it has nothing to do with Jin Guo Yuan Guo."
So there is no argument between outsiders and your own people.
Shui Yichen squinted slightly to look at Murong Zhan, only to find that Murong Zhan's eyes were different, it seemed that Mingxi was telling the truth, he was blind.
"That's right, it's a family matter." Ye Zhen immediately agreed with Murong Zhan's statement that she didn't want to raise Cheng Zheng's issue to the country's issue. If Zhao Rao wants to seek revenge from her, then she should come to her alone.
"Tianfei..." Shui Yichen's voice was cold and he wanted to continue speaking.
Ming Xi interrupted him, "General Shui, it doesn't matter whether you go back to the palace or not. My parents have traveled for so many days. Why don't you rest first? It's getting dark. What's the matter? Why not?" Let's talk tomorrow."
"I'll have someone prepare the guest room." Shui Yichen said immediately, after all, it has been four years, and there are many problems that cannot be clarified in a short while.
Murong Zhan said coldly, "I'm not used to living in other people's guest rooms."
Ye Zhen said helplessly to Shui Yichen, "Then we'll live in another courtyard first, and we'll talk about other things tomorrow."
"Yes." Shui Yichen's voice was cold, and he felt that Murong Zhan was really annoying as always.
No, it's more annoying than before.
…
…
Ye Zhen and the others left Shui's house and lived in Ye Yiqing's other courtyard. Fortunately, there have been a few servants living here, and everything is fairly clean. After changing the mattress, they can live there.
Mingxi told Murong Zhan and the others what happened after they left, "Jingninghou and Xiao Wangshu have already set off for Beijing, if there is no problem, they should meet with my aunt on the way. The news came that Teng Ye wanted to take the opportunity to deal with uncle, and was demoted to the wasteland, so he must have hated us even more."
"It's just a villain, don't worry about it." Mo Rongzhan didn't take Teng Ye seriously at all, and he didn't even have any impression of this person.
"You guys have followed Shui Yichen for so many days, didn't he notice?" Ye Zhen asked.
Ming Xi chuckled, "He found out, but he didn't know it was us."
Ye Zhen glanced at them, "You also made the statue of the city gate?"
"It's me, it's me!" Mio immediately raised her small hand to claim credit, "The original statue is ugly, but I made it beautiful, ma'am, doesn't it look alike?"
"Tonight is immediately ruined." Murong Zhan said expressionlessly.
Mio blinked, "Why? Isn't it pretty?"
"Father, what's wrong?" Ming Xi also didn't understand.
"Of course not, I think it's very beautiful." Ye Zhen said with a smile, and gave Mio'er a thumbs up, "As expected of Mio'er."
Mo Rongzhan said in a flat voice, "Then carry the statue back and don't let others see it."
"Who has nothing to do to put such a big statue at home!" Ye Zhen shouted, "It's fine to restore it to its original appearance. If it is destroyed, the people may think that something happened."
Mingxi was afraid that Mo Rongzhan really wanted them to bring the statue back, so he hurriedly said, "Mother, let's restore it to its original appearance tonight."
"Yeah." Ye Zhen nodded, "Didn't you find Huangfuchen? Where is he?"
"Sir said he wanted to go back to do some errands, so he should be back tomorrow." Mingxi said.
Ye Zhen rested her chin in one hand, "I don't know if there is any news from Qi State, so I'll inquire tomorrow by the way."
At night, the three children came back outside the city gate, looking at the lifelike statue, Mio'er looked sad and sad, the sculpture is so good, it looks exactly like his wife, I really don't know where Mo Rongzhan's strange temper came from.
"Mingxi, why doesn't the city lord allow the statue of his wife to be placed here?" Mio'er asked Mingxi suspiciously.
"Probably..." Mingxi thought hard, "He can't see it himself."
Huohuang rolled his eyes, "What do the two little kids know? It's because the city lord is jealous. He thinks that Yaoyao belongs to him alone, so he can't let others see how beautiful Yaoyao is."
"Ah? Why?" Mio'er couldn't figure it out even more. She wished everyone would say she was good-looking, and she was afraid of being seen by others.
"You don't understand this, you won't know until you grow up." In fact, Huohuang didn't know much, and couldn't explain it clearly to them.
Mioer looked at Mingxi seriously, "Will you hide me from others in the future?"
"No." Mingxi shook his head decisively.
"That's good." Mio patted her chest, "I will try not to look so good-looking."
Mingxi frowned, "I like good-looking ones."
Huohuang looked at the two innocent children speechlessly.
