1299. Chapter 1299 Worry

Huangfu Chen went to interrogate the man himself and learned everything from the man's mouth in less than a day.

As they guessed, they were indeed members of the Qi family in Northern City. They knew that directly assassinating Yaoyao and Mingxi would not work. Only by forcing their mother and son away could they have a chance.

As for what kind of opportunity it is, they still want to plan it.

Who knew that they would not be able to scare that woman, but would be caught instead. It seems that these people underestimated Ye Zhen and did not know her true identity at all. If she was just an ordinary woman, she would definitely be frightened. However, these people People don't know Ye Zhen, nor do they know what kind of person Ye Yiqing is.

Qi Yu followed this man's confession and continued to investigate. Dozens of people were imprisoned overnight. If he hadn't wanted to accumulate virtue for his daughter, who was not yet one month old, he would have simply gone on a killing spree. However, those people in China who had restless thoughts It became quiet immediately, and even the ministers who had wanted to persuade the emperor to establish a concubine burned the memorial to avoid accidentally angering the emperor and being beheaded.

Ye Zhen didn't care what was going on in China, she only cared about when her father would come back.

She asked Ye Chundong to inquire about the storm Qi Yu was talking about. She heard that a group of pirates were still sunk there, but she didn't find out about Ye Yiqing and the others. It shouldn't be such a coincidence.

Two months passed quickly, and it had already delayed a lot of time compared to the half year that Ye Zhen had budgeted for. She was getting more and more anxious.

"Yaoyao, is there any news about your father?" Zhaoyang's belly was swollen. She was already in labor. Although it was not the day of delivery yet, everyone around her was already nervously preparing.

Ye Zhen didn't dare to tell Zhaoyang about Ye Yiqing's news easily now, for fear of irritating her, which would be bad if she got fetal gas.

"Not yet. We are out on a boat, so sometimes it is normal to delay for a month or two." Ye Zhen said with a smile.

Zhaoyang frowned and sighed softly, "I always feel uneasy. It would be better if your father was by my side."

Because she had lost a child, Zhaoyang was even more nervous, hoping to give birth to their child safely, but Ye Yiqing had been out for so long now, and there was no news at all. It would be strange for her not to worry.

"It's okay. Your fetal position is very correct. Maybe dad will come back before you give birth." Ye Zhen comforted Zhaoyang.

Zhaoyang smiled and glanced at Ye Zhen, "I hope so. Didn't you take Mingxi and the others into the palace today?"

"Mother, mother..." Mingxi's small figure appeared in the corridor in front. He was wearing red clothes and looked a bit like a fire phoenix. He ran around with his short legs, "I want to find my sister. Go find Yuanyuan."

Ye Zhen stared at her son who had grown a lot and looked more and more like Mo Rongzhan, pointed at him angrily and cursed, "Last time you bit Yuanyuan's cheek and poked her head. , do you still dare to go find her?"

"Sister." Mingxi said in a sweet voice. Yuanyuan smelled delicious and felt soft. He just wanted to take a bite. He didn't know if it was sweet or not. Who knew Yuanyuan would cry so loudly.

Zhaoyang asked with a smile, "You want to play with Mingyu."

"Mingyu also wants to find Yuanyuan." Mingxi said seriously, "Mingyu is my sister, and Yuanyuan is also my sister."

"I think your son will have many sisters in the future." Zhaoyang smiled and glanced at Ye Zhen.

Ye Zhen wanted to hold her forehead and sigh, "Aren't you afraid of the emperor in the palace?"

Even when she saw Qi Yu smiling, she felt a little scared.

"Don't be afraid! Mom said, my father is also the emperor." Mingxi said seriously. Although he has never met his father, he thinks he must be very powerful.

Ye Zhen felt a little guilty for not letting the two children see Mo Rongzhan, so every night before going to bed, she would tell them about the Jin Kingdom, especially their father. She hoped that they would not see Mo Rongzhan in the future. It would be too resistant and unfamiliar.

"When you see Yuanyuan, you can't poke Yuanyuan's head with your hands. Yuanyuan will be hurt." Ye Zhen squatted down and held Mingxi's soft little hands, "You are my brother, and I have to protect you from now on." It’s your sister’s fault, you can’t bully your sister.”

Mingxi nodded in understanding, "No biting, no poking, Yuanyuan."

Ye Zhen chuckled softly, raised her head and said to Zhaoyang, "I will take them into the palace and ask about things at sea."

Qi Yu sends people out to patrol the sea every month, and maybe they can get news about Ye Yiqing and the others.

Arriving at the palace, Mingxi found Shen Mengxi's Fengxiang Palace by familiar means, "Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan..."

Shen Mengxi was holding her daughter and basking in the sun in the small garden. When she heard Mingxi's voice, her eyes lit up slightly and she looked over with a smile, "Brother is here."

"Sister." Mingxi climbed up the steps of the pavilion with her short legs and came to Shen Mengxi's side. Looking at her little sister, he leaned over and kissed Yuanyuan's cheek.

Yuanyuan didn't know if she still had memories of being bitten last time, but suddenly she burst into tears.

Ye Zhen led Mingyu over and said, "Mingxi, did you bully your sister again?"

"No!" Mingxi looked aggrieved, "My dear sister, my sister is crying."

"Yuanyuan, don't cry." Mingyu walked over and wanted to shout at Yuanyuan, but he breathed out a saliva bubble, which burst with a bang.

"Kaka..." Yuanyuan stopped crying and looked at Mingyu and laughed.

Shen Mengxi smiled and said, "Yuanyuan likes Mingyu very much."

Mingxi held Yuanyuan's hand and said, "I like my brother."

"Yes, I like my brother too." Shen Mengxi chuckled and looked up at Ye Zhen, "You haven't been in the palace for more than half a month."

Ye Zhen sat down, "Aren't you afraid that this guy Mingxi will hurt Yuanyuan again if he doesn't take it seriously?"

"Are you worried that the emperor was angry when he bit Yuanyuan last time?" Shen Mengxi said with a smile, "Don't worry, the emperor is not angry. Mingxi is so young and not sensible yet. He likes Yuanyuan, but he just doesn't know how to express it. .”

"Actually, I want to deal with the situation at sea..." Ye Zhen said in a low voice. In front of Shen Mengxi, she could openly reveal her worries.

Shen Mengxi asked, "Are you worried about your father?"

Ye Zhen nodded gently.

"I don't know about others, but as long as Shui Yichen is here, nothing will happen." Shen Mengxi said with a smile, as if remembering something from the past, "You don't know Shui Yichen. Before he went to Nanzhou, he led the country of China. His maritime army, even if he reaches Nanzhou, his fleet is not comparable to that of ordinary people."

"Really?" Ye Zhen didn't expect Shui Yichen to be so powerful.

Shen Mengxi patted her shoulder gently, "Believe me, there will be news soon."

Ye Zhen's worry did not last long, because after returning home from the palace, Zhaoyang started to take action, and all her thoughts were put on delivering Zhaoyang's baby.

"Yaoyao, I...I don't want to give birth so soon, wait until your father comes back..." Zhaoyang cried out, grabbing Ye Zhen's hand in panic.
