The moonlight shone softly from the window, and there was still a layer of snow on the ground. The room was as warm as spring. Mo Rongzhan lowered his eyes and looked at Ye Zhen, who was sleeping sweetly and soundly. He felt that his heart was also soft and warm. He lowered his head and kissed her. Cheeks, he gently held her in his arms. It wasn't until there was a strange sound outside that he opened his sharp eyes.
This voice was the signal from the secret guard. Needless to say, it must be that Shen Yi had something to report to him.
Murong Zhan gently let go of his hand to make sure that Ye Zhen was not awakened. He put on his clothes and walked out. Hongying who was watching outside stood up in a hurry and said, "Your Majesty."
"Yeah." Mo Rongzhan waved his hand and went to the side hall to see Shen Yi.
"Have you found out?" Mo Rongzhan glanced at Shen Yi lightly. Today he also noticed something strange about the eldest princess of Qi, so he asked Shen Yi to follow Zhao Rao out of the palace.
Shen Yi whispered, "Not long after leaving the palace, Cheng Zheng got on Zhao Rao's carriage. His subordinate wanted to continue following, but Song Hongao discovered him."
Murong Zhan raised his eyebrows. Song Hongao stopped Chen Yi. That was Zhao Yong's order.
"What did Zhao Rao do in the palace?" Mo Rongzhan asked with a frown. He knew that Ye Zhen knew about it, but she fell asleep before she told him. How could he have the heart to wake her up and ask.
"Zhao Rao went to see Lu Shuang'er." Shen Yi whispered, telling Mo Rongzhan everything about her conversation with Lu Shuang'er, "...now Lu Shuang'er is clamoring to see you."
Murong Zhan glanced at Shen Yi coldly, "Go down."
As long as he thought about the suffering he had witnessed Ye Zhen in his dream, Mo Rongzhan couldn't control the anger in his heart. He was not even willing to do it himself to Lu Shuang'er, so as not to dirty his hands.
"Yes." Shen Yi lowered his head and retreated. He glanced towards the bedroom, thinking that he would have to wait two days to beg his wife. He didn't want to be alone. In such a cold weather, it would be easier to marry a wife to survive the winter. .
The next day, when Ye Zhen woke up, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and Mo Rongzhan was not beside her. She stretched out and felt that her whole body was weak. She had been tired for several days in a row for the founding ceremony, and she still couldn't sleep this time. so comfortable.
"Mother, are you awake?" Hong Ling walked in. Seeing that Ye Zhen had opened her eyes, she asked the maid outside to fetch water.
Ye Zhen sat up, "When is it?"
"It's almost noon, did you sleep well, the empress?" Hong Ling asked with a smile, taking the cloak and putting it on Ye Zhen, "The emperor took the little prince and the little princess out of the palace early in the morning. He said that the weather was good today. Let the two kids go and bask in the sun.”
"We are going to the suburbs." Ye Zhen snorted softly. The two children didn't know who to follow. The older one was older and more courageous than anyone else. He pestered their father to go horseback riding every day.
The little palace maid came in with water. Hongling helped Ye Zhen wash up and said, "The princess heard that there is a snow peach orchard in the suburbs. Those snow peaches only bear fruit in winter, so she begged the emperor to pick peaches."
Ye Zhen shook her head and laughed, "Just a snack."
"By the way, empress, this morning Shen Yi came up with something and asked to see you." Hong Ling said while holding back a smile.
"He didn't go to the suburbs? What did he want from me?" Ye Zhen asked doubtfully.
Hong Ling said, "My servant didn't know what was going on, but looking at Hong Ying, it seemed like something was going on."
Ye Zhen chuckled softly, "It seems that it has something to do with Hongying. After so many years, Hongying has also reached her age." She looked at Hongling. This was the maid who had been with her since she was a child. Someone who knew her true identity said, "Hong Ling, you are almost 20 this year. If you have someone you like, you have to tell me."
"Your Majesty, why are you talking about this slave? I don't want to get married, so I will serve you by my side. From now on, I will serve as a nanny in the palace to serve the two young masters." Hong Ling whispered, she had seen Ye Zhen looked like she was trapped by love. Even though the emperor loved his empress in every possible way, she still had some inexplicable resistance in her heart.
"Do you not want to get married, or do you have no one you like?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice, "I will not force you. You are the one who has been with me for the longest time and the one who knows me best. In the future, I will definitely It will allow you to marry with dignity and no one will treat you badly."
Hong Ling blushed and said, "My Lady, from now on...if I like you, I will tell you."
If she hadn't said that, the empress would have kept talking.
"Okay." Ye Zhen glanced at her with a smile, "Let Eunuch Fu go and summon Liu Zhanhu's cabinet ministers to the palace. I have something to say to them."
"Yes, empress." Hong Ling responded.
Before going to meet the cabinet ministers, Ye Zhen met Shen Yi in the side hall.
Shen Yi did not follow Murong Zhan to the suburbs today because he wanted to see Ye Zhen. Murong Zhan knew what he was thinking and kept him here.
"You asked me for help early in the morning. Is there something important?" Although Ye Zhen had already guessed what Shen Yi was asking for, she just pretended not to know and glanced at Hong Ying who was standing beside her.
Hongying had lowered her head for a long time and did not dare to raise it. Her face was as red as a cooked shrimp.
"Your Majesty, I...want to ask you something." Shen Yi swallowed and said cautiously.
"Oh?" Ye Zhen looked at him with a half-smile, "What do you want from me?"
Shen Yi raised his head and glanced at Hongying, "Madam, my subordinate wants to marry Hongying."
"Marry Hongying?" Ye Zhen was not surprised. She had known that Hongying and Shen Yi had agreed to reconcile. "I don't know, but when did you fall in love with us, Hongying?"
"Empress..." Shen Yi coughed awkwardly, "My subordinate... fell in love with Hongying three years ago."
Ye Zhen didn't want to make things difficult for him and asked him with a smile, "Hongying has been with me for many years. I treat her differently from others. You can ask to marry her if you want, but if you marry Hongying, you won't be able to do so in the future." With three wives and four concubines, you can only treat her wholeheartedly, can you do that?"
Hongying glanced at Ye Zhen with red eyes, feeling indescribably moved in her heart.
Shen Yi immediately said, "Madam, I will not let Hongying down. I am willing to swear."
"A man's oath is unreliable." Ye Zhen said bluntly. She looked at Hongying, "Are you willing to marry him?"
Hongying shyly called Shen Yi, "Your Majesty... If he feels sorry for me, I won't let him go even if I don't need you to take action."
It seemed that she was willing, so Ye Zhen said, "I can betroth Hongying to you, but your marriage will be arranged in Jin Kingdom. You have to ask the matchmaker to come and propose the marriage."
"Yes, your Majesty." Shen Yi was overjoyed, as long as his Majesty promised to betroth Hongying to him.
Ye Zhen smiled and shook her head, seeing Hongying's face turning even redder.
