1065. Chapter 1065 Killer
Ye Zhen had just slept in the carriage for most of the day, and she was still in good spirits. When she heard that Zhao Ning was asking Lin Zhiran about her affairs, she raised her eyebrows lightly, "Zhao Ning is asking about my affairs?"
"I said I wanted to know your preferences, but it seems I'm just thinking of ways to please you," Jian Jia said.
"Why is she trying to please me?" Ye Zhen chuckled. Zhao Ning is a proud and arrogant person. This can be seen in Huajia Village. She should be able to tell that she is not popular, except last time. She wanted to send grilled fish to Ye Zhen, but she didn't join in the offer all the way, probably because she didn't want to bring trouble to herself.
Hongying said, "Your Majesty, I saw that she was about to arrive in Kyoto, so she was so eager to please you. She is a little fisherman, she behaves like a wealthy lady, thinking that everyone must support her. "
Ye Zhen thought to herself, Zhao Ning is really not a rich man, but a princess.
"After all, she saved the emperor. Don't be too obvious in front of her. She doesn't live in the palace when she returns to Kyoto, so it has nothing to do with us." Ye Zhen said lightly. She didn't want Hongying to Zhao Ning was offended too much. In the future, when Zhao Ning regains her identity, she will inevitably hate her maid.
Hongying curled her lips and said, "I think she seems to be full of evil intentions."
Zhao Ning is indeed a thoughtful person, but if it weren't for her, Mo Rongzhan would not be alive now.
Thinking of this, Ye Zhen was no longer as disgusted with Zhao Ning as before.
Everyone has their own way of life. As long as Zhao Ning doesn't affect her, she doesn't care what kind of person Zhao Ning is. Regarding Mo Rongzhan, she has her own bottom line. This is her man. Any woman, even if there is No matter how great the favor was, she would never give in an inch.
"She has a lot of thoughts, so just be careful." Ye Zhen explained, "I slept a lot today. I just saw a farm nearby. You can go with me for a walk."
"Mother, it's almost dark." Hongying said, this place is remote and it would be difficult to walk when it gets dark.
Ye Zhen said, "Take the lantern and go for a long walk. Just stretch your muscles and come back."
Jian Jia went over to comb her hair and put on a wide-sleeved tulle dress. "The wind today is full of heat. It's better now."
"Let's go." Ye Zhen said with a smile. Her belly was getting bigger and bigger, and the spiritual spring was not as inexhaustible as before, so she no longer soaked her body in the spiritual spring every day. At most, she drank a cup of spiritual spring every day. Tea, in order to make it easier for her to give birth in the future, she still needs to walk more.
There was a field near the inn, and there were several tenant farmers working in the field. Ye Zhen didn't go too far, and just walked slowly around it.
"It's so refreshing." Ye Zhen took a deep breath. It was really good to go out for a walk. She felt that all the bones in her body had been too lazy to sleep in the past two days.
"My dear, look, this fruit looks so delicious." Hongying said, pointing to the small red fruits in the field.
Ye Zhen took a look and smiled and said, "This is a cherry tomato. It was introduced to our Central Plains only in the previous dynasty. Hongying, go find the tenant farmers and ask if these cherry tomatoes are for sale? Let's pick some and eat them back." .”
"How to eat this fruit?" Jian Jia asked curiously.
"Wash it clean and you can eat it." Ye Zhen said with a smile, watching Hongying go over to ask the tenant farmer.
"Mother, those tenant farmers said that this is a fruit that grows wild. They think the bright color is poisonous, so we must not eat it randomly." Hongying came back and said to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen chuckled, "Pick some back. These cherry tomatoes won't be poisonous."
When Hongying heard what Ye Zhen said, she responded with a smile and picked a lot of cherry tomatoes to carry around.
"Empress!" Jian Jia suddenly realized something was wrong and protected Ye Zhen behind her, looking around carefully.
Sure enough, she saw figures floating in the field. Those people seemed to be coming with bad intentions.
Hongying also noticed the surrounding situation, placed the cherry tomatoes on the ground, and came to Ye Zhen's side.
Because it was near the inn, and there was only a small village and fields around, they didn't think much about it when they came out. They didn't even bring any guards with them. Who would have thought that someone would be ambushing them here.
"Hongying, escort the queen back to the inn." Jian Jia whispered. Fortunately, they couldn't walk far and were only a short distance away from the inn.
"Be careful!" Hongying whispered.
Ye Zhen's face was condensed. She knew very well who would want to kill her at this time. They had already arrived at the feet of Kyoto. The general manager was easily discovered. The Queen Mother really couldn't tolerate her. She didn't want to kill her. She should go back with Mo Rongzhan's child.
When the men in black in the field realized that their traces were exposed, they no longer planned to hide, and they all appeared in Ye Zhen's sight with knives in hand.
There were eight people in total, each with their face covered. They were all dressed in black, except for a red spider embroidered on their chests, which looked extremely conspicuous.
"Kill!" One of them ordered, with murderous intent in everyone's eyes, and they shot towards Ye Zhen sharply.
Just as they flew out of the field, a row of sharp arrows flew from a distance, killing four of the men in black on the spot. The other four turned back in shock. What happened?
Ye Zhen turned around suddenly and saw that it was Mo Rongzhan and Murong Ke who were coming.
"Azhan!" Ye Zhen's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Are you okay?" Mo Rongzhan quickly came to Ye Zhen's side and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was fine.
"I'm fine." Ye Zhen shook her head gently, "Who are those people?"
Murong Zhan looked at the men in black who were fighting with Wu Chong and the others with cold eyes, "Like Qian Rakshasa, they are called Thousand Hand Spiders. They are all in the murder business in the world."
Ye Zhen clutched his sleeve tightly, "Did the Queen Mother send you?"
"Even if it wasn't her, it was her instruction." Murong Zhan said coldly, "I will go back to the inn with you first."
"Fortunately you showed up, otherwise..." Ye Zhen didn't dare to think about the consequences. Jian Jia and Hong Ying were definitely no match for those people.
Murong Zhan did not dare to think about the consequences. He held Ye Zhen's hand tightly, "You are not allowed to go out alone anymore. Let me go with you wherever you go."
"Okay." Ye Zhen's hand was so painful that he held it. She knew that he was also worried about her, "How did you know that someone wanted to kill us?"
"Zhao Ning came to tell me." Murong Zhan said in a low voice. He and Murong Ke were talking in the room. They didn't know that Ye Zhen had gone out, but Zhao Ning suddenly came to her in a hurry and said that he saw the empress in the field. On the side path, there seemed to be an ambush in the fields.
Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect it to be Zhao Ning.
"The Queen Mother knows you are back?" Ye Zhen asked quietly.
If the Queen Mother knew that A Zhan was still alive, would she still want to make A Yi the new emperor?
Murong Zhan sneered, "Whether I am alive or not is not important to her at all."
Ye Zhen felt sad in her heart and felt more and more sorry for him, "You are very important to me if you are alive."
