1003. Chapter 1003 Suspicious
Ye Zhen thought it would take at least a few days before she would know the news about Mo Rongzhan, but she didn't expect that the victory of the city's destruction had already been reported before dark the next day.
"The generals in Anhe City are too...useless." Even Hongying felt ashamed of Chen Jun's combat effectiveness. After all, there were still 20,000 to 30,000 troops in Anhe City, but they were scared away like that.
What a shame.
However, their Beiming Kingdom is embarrassed, which is a great thing for their Jin Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, now you don't have to worry about anything unexpected happening to the Emperor." Jian Jia said to Ye Zhen with a smile. My Majesty was worried for a long time last night, but she is finally relieved today.
Ye Zhen smiled faintly. She was actually not worried that Mo Rongzhan would lose the battle, but she did not expect that the news of success would come so soon. "The person who went to fight in the Beiming Kingdom was Chen Jun, not Lu Lingzhi?"
"I have never heard of Lu Lingzhi," Jin Shanshan said. "I think he has already escaped. He is a traitor to the Jin Kingdom. If he does not leave, it will not be as simple as killing him if he is caught."
Lu Lingzhi did so much just to escape in a hurry today? impossible! There must be another reason.
"He may still be in Anhe City." Ye Zhen whispered, "But don't worry, since the Emperor has entered the city, he will definitely find him."
"So don't think too much, just take good care of the baby." Jin Shanshan said.
Ye Zhen smiled at her and told Hongying and the others, "Go and pack up. We should go to Anhe City soon."
Jin Shanshan was slightly surprised and said, "Mother, do you still want to go to Anhe City?"
"If the emperor stays there, he will definitely send someone to pick me up, so it's best to clean up first so as not to be in a hurry." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Hongying and Jianjia smiled and said yes, turned around and went to clean up.
Ye Zhen looked at Jin Shanshan with a smile, "I heard from my brother that you plan to stay in Jin Country?"
"Well." Jin Shanshan lowered his head and said, "My father is gone, so there is no point in going back to Beiming Kingdom. Besides... Beitang Yu may not let me go. He may have already regarded me as a traitor."
"I'm very happy that you stay." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "If my brother bullies you in the future, you can come to me."
Jin Shanshan's cheeks turned slightly red, "How could the general bully me?"
Ye Zhen covered her mouth and said with a smile, "How can I not know what kind of person he is? My brother didn't understand the girl's thoughts before, and now that he is in the military camp all year round, he is definitely not very careful and considerate. However, Shan Shan , Our Ye family has no custom of taking concubines, my brother will definitely be devoted to you, and you will have to deal with his lack of care in the future. "
"He... is already very good." Jin Shanshan became more and more shy as Ye Zhen said it.
"Well, it seems that my brother is no longer stupid." Ye Zhen said with a teasing smile.
Jin Shanshan bit his lip, "The general is hard-spoken but soft-hearted. After being around him for so long, I can still understand him somewhat."
"It's best if you understand him." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "Okay, you go and clean up. Maybe my brother will come to pick us up."
When it was getting dark, Ye Chunnan returned to Xiazhou. He first came to see Ye Zhen and told her about going to Anhe City.
"Brother, have you seen Lu Lingzhi on the battlefield?" Ye Zhen had already guessed that Mo Rongzhan would send someone to pick her up. She just wanted to know if Lu Lingzhi had been caught.
"No, I didn't even see his shadow. When I left, the Emperor had already asked the Sixth Prince to find him. Don't worry, he will find that bitch even if he digs three feet into the ground." Ye Chunnan said through gritted teeth.
Ye Zhen sighed softly in her heart, "What kind of ability does Lu Lingzhi have that he can survive to this day?"
"Insidious and despicable people always live longer." Ye Chunnan snorted.
"No, brother, I have a doubt in my heart." Ye Zhen asked everyone in the room to retreat, leaving only her and Ye Chunnan.
Ye Chunnan looked at her heavy face in confusion, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"Brother, do you remember that I told you that when I was poisoned by Lu Lingzhi, my soul wandered in the palace for two years?" Ye Zhen said in a low voice.
"Yaoyao, don't mention the past." Ye Chunnan's expression changed. He didn't want Yaoyao to think of the past. It was too painful a memory.
Ye Zhen shook her head. She just couldn't think about it or recall it, so she felt that she had ignored too many things. "At that time, the emperor was very afraid of Lu Lingzhi. It seemed that Lu Lingzhi was threatening Jin." country, I remember that Lu Shuang'er had fallen out of favor at that time, but she was still a high-ranking concubine, and the emperor seemed to tolerate her because of Lu Lingzhi. "
"Wait a minute." Ye Chunnan raised his hand, "The two years you were in the palace...but when you became Lu Yaoyao, it was two years ago, that is...then you became a medical girl in Kyoto. At that time, did you think Lu Lingzhi was a threat to the emperor? Wasn't Lu Shuang'er also sentenced to death? "
"So this is what I can't figure out. Could it be because of me that the emperor didn't notice the threat behind Lu Lingzhi this time?" Ye Zhen said, "When we were in Xiliang, many people appeared around Lu Lingzhi. Helper, it couldn't have been given to him by Qi Ruoshui. How did he do it? When he was in the wasteland, he was a useless person... But Qi Ruoshui still found him and cured his body, and Lu Shuang'er became a child. To marry the emperor of Qi’s concubine is something that a useless person cannot do.”
Ye Chunnan's eyes turned cold, "What did you say? Whose concubine did Lu Shuang'er become?"
"I'm as surprised as you, yes, it's Zhao Yong." Ye Zhen said angrily.
"You are indeed very capable." Ye Chunnan sneered, "No wonder Lu Lingzhi dared to stay in Anhe City."
Thinking of Lu Lingzhi's viciousness, "Brother, let's go to Anhe City quickly."
"It's already dark. Let's start again early tomorrow morning. The road at night is difficult." Ye Chunnan said in a deep voice, "Yaoyao, don't worry about Lu Lingzhi's matter. I will find out."
"I asked Wu Chong to go to Qi State to investigate." Ye Zhen said, she felt that the most suspicious thing was in Qi State.
Ye Chunnan frowned and glanced at her, "You are too impatient. Qi is not another place."
"I know, so I didn't ask Wu Chong to check Lu Shuang'er. He just... asked about Liu's whereabouts." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Mrs. Liu must have taken Lu Zanzhi to the State of Qi. She felt that as long as she kept a close eye on Mrs. Liu, she would always be able to find out some clues.
"Anyway, don't worry about this anymore, and don't think about the fact that you are about to become a mother now." Ye Chunnan said, "I will find out."
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "I know."
"I'll go back to the house first." Ye Chunnan said.
"Going to find Shanshan?" Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows and smiled.
A suspicious blush appeared on Ye Chunnan's dark cheeks, "What's wrong with looking for her? Can't I still find my own wife?"
