In the hall, besides Shui Yichen, there were also the big bed general Lei Yingchun and others. They had heard the news that Cheng Zheng was killed by the concubine the day before yesterday. At that time, they thought it was a rumor. Only then did they realize that it was true, and the Empress Dowager Tian was in Wangdu City, so they immediately came to ask to see her.
In the blink of an eye, four years have passed, and many changes have taken place in the Yuan Kingdom, and the structure of the court is also different from four years ago, but the Yuan Kingdom was created by the Concubine Tian. No matter how it changes, Lu Yaoyao's name still has a place in the hearts of these ministers. pivotal position.
Ye Zhen was wearing a pair of printed trousers with a red collar on a white background today. Under the sun, she looked bright and beautiful, and her porcelain white skin was set off like jade. She walked up the steps and came into everyone's sight.
There was almost no change at all. Where did she spend these four years
Shui Yichen looked at Ye Zhen with burning eyes. After four years of missing her, he no longer wants to control his thoughts and desires.
"Immortal Concubine!" Shen Luoyang took a step forward and bowed to Ye Zhen.
Her worship finally brought everyone back to God.
"I have seen the imperial concubine." Jiang Dachuan and the others knelt down and saluted with excitement.
"Get up, all of you, get up quickly." Ye Zhen is not used to the title of Empress Tianfei, and she has not made any contribution to the Yuan Kingdom for so many years, and she doesn't plan to stay in the future, she doesn't want them to misunderstand.
"Tianfei Empress, it will be good if you come back."
"... If you survive a catastrophe, you will have a future blessing. The return of the concubine Tianfei is the blessing of our Yuan Kingdom."
"That's right, this is the blessing of our Yuan Kingdom."
Listening to what they said, Ye Zhen felt a warm feeling in her heart, and no matter what happened in the past few years, they still missed her old love.
"I am not the blessing of the Yuan Kingdom, but you are. If it weren't for you all these years, the Yuan Kingdom would have been torn to pieces." Ye Zhen said in a deep voice, this is her sincere words, Cheng Zheng and Beitang Yu are ambitious With her disappearance, they must have thought that there was a chance to embezzle the Yuan Kingdom. Not only has the Yuan Kingdom not been embezzled, but it has even become more prosperous. This is all thanks to them.
Lei Yingchun said, "If there is no Tianfei Empress, there will be no Yuan Kingdom. Empress, since you are back, why don't you go back to the palace?"
"Yes, over the years, the palace has been renovated once, and it is more spacious and brighter than before. Madam, I am here to welcome you back to the palace today." Jiang Dachuan said.
"Your Majesty welcomes you back to the palace." The others followed suit and bowed to the end.
Ye Zhen said helplessly, "It's fine if I live here, I understand everyone's wishes."
When Lei Yingchun heard Ye Zhen's words, he raised his head and looked at her in surprise. Does this mean that he doesn't intend to go back to the palace
"I believe everyone has heard the rumors outside that Cheng Zheng of Qi State was assassinated, and Zhao Rao will definitely seek revenge on me. If I enter the palace at this time and continue to be your concubine, Zhao Rao will transfer the hatred to Yuan State. It is hard for the Yuan Kingdom to be prosperous today, and I shouldn’t be involved in the war again because of my personal grievances, it’s not fair to you or to the people of the Yuan Kingdom.” Ye Zhen looked at the hall with clear eyes. Everyone, they were all people who followed her on the battlefield, and they fought down Yuan Guo together with her. She really didn't want to hurt Yuan Guo because of her own affairs.
Shui Yichen said in a deep voice, "You are the concubine of Yuan Kingdom, your affairs are Yuan Kingdom's affairs, and our affairs."
Ye Zhen raised her eyes to look at him, and said to the others, "I have been at sea for many years, and I don't know many things about the Central Plains. Ladies and gentlemen, I can't do anything if I rush back to the palace, and... I still have a lot of things that I haven't done yet." .”
Lei Yingchun and Jiang Dachuan looked at each other, they understood what Ye Zhen meant, she didn't want to be a concubine anymore.
Could it be because of Shui Yichen
"Tianfei Empress..." Shen Luoyang glanced at Shui Yichen from the corner of his eyes, wanting to persuade Ye Zhen again.
"My lords, please go back. I will consider returning to the palace." Ye Zhen interrupted Shen Luoyang with a smile.
Lei Yingchun and the others looked at Huangfuchen behind Ye Zhen, and felt that it was useless for them to say more, so they bowed and retreated.
In the hall, only Shui Yichen and Huangfuchen were left watching Ye Zhen.
"Yaoyao, are you serious?" Huangfuchen asked in a low voice. He thought that she didn't want to go back to the palace because she wanted to test the minister's reaction first, but it didn't seem like that.
"Everything I said just now is true." Ye Zhen said, "I don't want Zhao Rao to have an excuse to attack Yuan Kingdom."
Shui Yichen said in a deep voice, "You are obviously looking for an excuse. If Zhao Rao dares to send troops, I will dare to fight. Yuan Guo does not have to be afraid of Qi Guo at all."
"War is a waste of money and people." Ye Zhen looked at Shui Yichen, "It's rare for the Yuan Kingdom to have such a peaceful day, so don't destroy it."
"Yaoyao is right." Huangfuchen nodded slightly.
"No matter what, you are the concubine of Yuan Kingdom. If Zhao Rao dares to declare war, then I will lead the troops to fight." Shui Yichen said coldly, strongly rejecting Ye Zhen's hint that she wanted to hand over Yuan Kingdom. That is absolutely impossible.
The reason why he is still here is because of her.
"Shui Yichen!" Seeing him turn and leave, Ye Zhen called out to stop him.
"I'm going to make preparations, and I will welcome Concubine Tian into the palace in a few days." Shui Yichen strode away, and ignored what Ye Zhen said just now.
Ye Zhen stared at his back, "Shui Yichen didn't seem to be so stubborn before."
Huangfuchen smiled wryly, "He has always been like this."
"Master, what do you think of entrusting Yuan Kingdom to Shui Yichen?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile. This was her thought after seeing Yuan Kingdom. She felt that Shui Yichen was more suitable to be the emperor of Yuan Kingdom than she was.
"I thought you wanted to hand over Yuan Kingdom to Mingyu." Huangfuchen said.
"I used to think like this." Ye Zhen blinked her eyes. Before going to Xuantian Continent to experience it, she had already planned for Mingxi and Mingyu. Mingxi inherited Jin Kingdom, Mingyu inherited Yuan Kingdom. People must be able to support each other, but Ming Xi obviously does not intend to stay in the Human Continent, and he is not suitable for this place either.
As for Mingyu... she is still too young, and there are too many variables in the future. Shui Yichen, who is loyal to her now, may not be loyal to Mingyu, at least he cannot make Shui Yichen an enemy.
Huangfuchen said, "Shui Yichen needs restraint."
If no one restrained Shui Yichen, he might become a tyrant.
"Then who should I ask to restrain him?" Ye Zhen frowned and thought, turning her gaze to Huangfuchen.
Huangfuchen shook his head violently, "If I can restrain him, I won't have to live in the mountains."
"That's because you don't want to, if you want, you can definitely restrain Shui Yichen." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
