1108. Chapter 1108 Third Brother

Ye Zhen played in the villa for several days and found that it was much better than she imagined. There were mountains and water. It was like eating game. Just let people go into the mountains to hunt a few pheasants. Otherwise, it was better to fish next to the creek. In the end, What’s fun is the rabbits she took out. One of them was a female rabbit, which happened to be about to give birth. Ye Zhen also delivered two little rabbits for her. Now she has a litter in the Daohua Courtyard, and she feels happy every time she looks at it. OK

"Let's go catch fish in the stream today and call the others. The fish Xiao Xizi grilled last time was really good and tasted very good." Ye Zhen got up early and took a look at Gang Yao Tian. The seeds she took out were very suitable for this land, and her mood suddenly improved, and she suddenly wanted to play outside again.

"Empress, after all, the other side of the creek is relatively far away. You have been... going out for several days in a row. Are you too tired?" Hong Ling asked in a low voice. The Queen has been going out to have fun every day these days. They are waiting for you. Everyone was following him in fear, fearing what might happen.

It was obvious that the empress was in a very depressed mood on the first day she arrived at the villa. How could she be so happy in the blink of an eye? Do you not miss the emperor at all?

"It's not too far, just a short walk." She didn't even want to walk for half an hour. She still wanted to walk for an hour every day.

"..." Everyone was a little speechless, and Hongying said, "Madam, why don't you take a rest today."

Ye Zhen looked at them funny, "Are you still worried that I won't be able to leave for half an hour?"

In fact, Hongying was a little worried that the Queen missed the Emperor too much, so she ignored her own body and had fun and played to relieve her sorrow. In the end... if something happened, a thousand deaths would not be enough for them.

"Your Majesty, you can actually go anytime. It's just that you just went hunting in the mountains yesterday..." Although you were just sitting in the carriage and didn't ride out on horseback, you still took a bow and arrow and shot two pheasants, which made them happy. Almost jumped out.

Ye Zhen glanced at them with a smile in her eyes, and finally understood what they were worried about.

Do you think she is looking for fun to relieve her sorrow? She looks so fragile. She can't survive without leaving the palace and Mo Rongzhan? In fact, she was a little unhappy at first, but then she remembered what her father said, no one needs to rely on anyone else to survive. Mo Rongzhan wanted to protect her like a golden bird, so she found herself in the cage he prepared. When the world is better, he will naturally make her happy when he is around, and it will be the same when he is not around. She can still live a good life.

Mo Rongzhan also hopes that she can live happily here.

"Let's go. I'm very nice. I don't have such freedom in the palace. It's rare that I can have a little more freedom when I leave the palace." Ye Zhen said to them with a smile, "Maybe I will return to the palace in a few days. I want to do this then. There’s no chance to play.”

Hong Ling and Hong Ying looked at each other and saw that the Queen was not forcing her smile, so they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. Maybe the Queen was really happier in the villa than in the palace.

Aren't you worried that the emperor would... favor that concubine in the palace?

When they left the palace, everyone was guessing that the emperor would love Concubine Shu. After all, for so many years, apart from the queen, Concubine Shu was the only one the emperor remembered.

"Your Majesty, Mrs. Lu is asking for an audience outside Zhuangzi." Wu Chong came over and whispered to Ye Zhen.

Ye Zhen had no choice but to wave her hands. It seemed that she didn't need to go out today. If Mrs. Pei was here, she wouldn't want to go anywhere and just keep raising her baby in the house.

"Please come in, madam." Ye Zhen said to Hongying. It must be Mo Rongzhan who asked Pei to accompany her. Could he be thinking the same as Hongying and the others, thinking that she has been forcing her smile on her face these past few days and deliberately cheating on her? Kind of fun?

However, she soon knew that this was not Mo Rongzhan's idea.

Also coming with Pei was Lu Zanzhi, the legitimate son of the second wife of the Lu family. She used to call him third brother.

"The common people have seen the Queen." Lu Zanzhi was stunned for a moment when he saw Ye Zhen. The scene when he saw this cousin for the first time came to his mind. Who would have thought that a little girl from a border town would eventually become the Queen, let alone Thinking that the Lu family would end up in such a situation, he knew it was not Yaoyao's fault, after all, she was completely unaware at the time.

Ye Zhen raised her eyes and looked at Lu Zanzhi. To be honest, she resented the Lu family at first. Later, after living in the Lu family for two years, she felt the care of Mrs. Lu and the love of Lu Shiming and her husband. Gradually coming out of the hatred, except for Lu Lingzhi and Lu Shuang'er, no one else felt sorry for her.

"Third brother, please forgive me. My family doesn't have to do this." Ye Zhen said when Lu Zanzhi was about to kneel down, and asked Xiao Xizi next to him to help him up, "Mom, third brother, this is not a palace, we are a family, just Just do it as usual."

Lu Zanzhi sighed in his heart, how could he and Yaoyao still be a family? As early as when his father kicked his third uncle out of the Lu family mansion, they were no longer a family, "Yes, empress."

Ye Zhen raised her eyes and glanced at Mr. Pei. She had wanted to see Lu Zanzhi before she came to Chengde Villa, but Lu Zanzhi happened to be away from Kyoto at that time. I heard that he went on business and only came back these two days.

Mrs. Pei was already feeling uneasy when she knew that Yaoyao was sent to Chengde Villa. If Lu Zanzhi hadn't been here, she would have asked clearly. Yaoyao asked Lu Tingzhi to come to her. She must have something important to ask. .

"Yaoyao, I haven't been to Chengde Villa for a long time. I'll go for a walk while the weather is nice." Mrs. Pei said to Ye Zhen with a smile.

Ye Zhen smiled and nodded, "Hongying, take your wife out."

Hong Ling also wisely retreated to the door and stood guard.

"Third brother, what have you been busy with recently?" Ye Zhen looked at Lu Zanzhi. She had not seen him for two or three years. He was no longer as youthful as before. Probably because he often went out to do business. He looked mature. Much more stable.

Lu Zanzhi said gently, "Back to you, I'm just doing a small business at home."

Ye Zhen heard from Mr. Pei about Lu Shixun's situation. Now the second wife is completely supported by Lu Zanzhi. Lu Shixun has high ambitions and low skills, so he can't do any business for a long time. The situation of the second wife of the Lu family is getting worse day by day. In the end, Lu Zanzhi, who plans to take the imperial examination, takes over. Lu Shixun's business is getting better.

"What about Xiao Wu?" Ye Zhen asked again. She had only met the fifth girl of the Lu family once and thought she was a pretty good little girl.

"Xiaowu is planning to enter a women's college." Lu Zanzhi said with a smile.

Ye Zhen glanced at him and said, "Third brother, although the second uncle said that he no longer recognizes the third brother, we are still brother and sister."

Lu Zanzhi nodded, "I know."

He knew that his father had gone too far, otherwise their second wife would not have faced difficulties at all, but it had been so long, and it was all in vain.

"Actually..." Ye Zhen looked at him seriously, "I want to ask you about something."
