Chapter 1941 Don’t Leave
After Ye Zhen finished speaking, she left. Murong Ke stood there and looked at her back silently. The scene where he met her and now appeared in his mind bit by bit. It felt like it was a lifetime ago, and it seemed like it happened yesterday. All the memories related to her are so profound and vivid, and they are the most colorful memories in his life.
I don't know how long it took before Murong Ke came back to his senses, and Ye Zhen could no longer be seen in his sight.
He laughed at himself. He knew her feelings for Mo Rongzhan, but he still didn't give up. Even she couldn't stand it anymore. His persistence must have made her uncomfortable.
He had known a long time ago that she was a woman who easily softened her heart.
Unfortunately, she was never soft-hearted towards him.
Even if she showed the slightest hesitation towards him, he would risk everything to keep her by his side.
But she has always been cruel to him.
"Father..." Mingyu didn't know when he came and looked at him cautiously outside the door.
Murong Ke suppressed the sourness in his heart, and the sadness in his eyes was replaced by calmness, "Mingyu, come here."
Mingyu came to Murong Ke's side with a smile and took the initiative to hold her hand, "Father, is that... gone?"
"Was it fun to go to the temple fair yesterday?" Murong Ke led Mingyu to sit inside and asked Fu Fu to get Mingyu's favorite snacks.
"It's fun." Mingyu's eyes were bright, "Mi'er made several wishing lanterns for me, and I put them all in the wishing pool. I made a wish that my father would be healthy and live a long life, and that he would accompany Mingyu for the rest of his life."
Murong Ke chuckled softly, "You should have others accompany you throughout your life."
Mingyu's expression changed, "Father, don't you want Mingyu?"
"No, I am your father. When you get married in the future, you will be someone else's little girl." Murong Ke rubbed Mingyu's head lovingly. Mingyu is his niece. After getting along with him in the past few years, he He already regards Mingyu as his biological daughter.
"I just want to be with my father." Mingyu said seriously, then hesitated, "And Yan Xiaoliu."
Murong Ke chuckled softly, "Did you see Yan Xiaoliu yesterday?"
Mingyu nodded gently, "I also met Miao'er."
"Who is Miao'er?" Murong Ke asked with raised eyebrows.
"She is an orphan. She was brought back by her uncle. Now she lives in... Prince Qin's Mansion. She has been following her brother." Mingyu said.
How could Ye Chunnan bring an orphan back and let her live in Prince Qin's Mansion? It's probably because this orphan has something to do with Ye Zhen and the others.
"Did you stay at Prince Qin's Mansion yesterday?" Murong Ke asked with a smile.
Mingyu glanced at him and nodded gently. She buried her face in Murong Ke's palm, "Father, am I too bad?"
"Why do you say that?" Murong Ke asked softly.
"Actually, I know in my heart that they must have had no choice but to leave. But when they come back, I feel uncomfortable. I just don't want to make it easy for them..." Mingyu whispered, she was afraid that her father would feel that way. She is a bad child and will never love him again.
"Mingyu feels aggrieved. You just want others to know your grievance. You don't really hate your parents, right?" Murong Ke asked with a smile.
"Yes..." Mingyu said softly.
Murong Ke said with a smile, "No one is willing to hate Mingyu. No matter it is your father or your parents, they all love you the most. Your willingness to spend the night in Prince Qin's residence proves that you have forgiven them, right?"
Mingyu hesitated for a moment and nodded gently, "But I still... don't know how to get along with them."
She still couldn't say the words "father and mother".
"It doesn't matter, take your time." Murong Ke said, this is already a good start.
Mingyu smiled shyly, "Well, today... today my mother asked me if I wanted to go to Qi with them. She said it would be dangerous."
Going to Qi State will indeed be dangerous! From Murong Ke's point of view, he didn't want Mingyu to take risks, but since Ye Zhen raised this matter with Mingyu, she would definitely be able to ensure Mingyu's safety. More importantly, she wanted to use this time to talk to Mingyu. Jade please repair the relationship between mother and daughter.
"Does Mingyu want to go?" Murong Ke asked in a low voice.
Mingyu glanced at Murong Ke, "I don't want to, if I go, wouldn't my father be the only one in the palace? I want to stay with you."
Murong Ke's eyes showed a warm smile, "There are other people in the palace as well."
"But they can't make Father laugh." Mingyu said seriously, "Father doesn't usually smile."
"Really?" Murong Ke was stunned for a moment. He didn't even know that he didn't usually smile.
Mingyu said, "Anyway, I've thought about it clearly. I won't go to Qi. I want to stay with my father."
A warm current surged in Murong Ke's heart, "Then don't you want to live in Prince Qin's Mansion?"
"Why should I go to live in Prince Qin's Mansion? Doesn't it mean that Father doesn't want me to live in the palace?" Mingyu shouted in horror.
"Of course not, this will always be your home." Murong Ke said, he thought she wanted to be with her family more.
Mingyu whispered, "Yes, this is my home, and I will never leave my father."
Murong Ke patted Mingyu's head, "You are my daughter, always will be."
"Yeah." Mingyu laughed happily, "By the way, father, there is something I want to ask you."
"What's the matter?" Murong Ke asked.
Mingyu looked around to make sure there was no one else, then asked in a low voice, "Father, do you believe there is a phoenix in this world?"
Murong Ke was slightly startled, a phoenix reborn from nirvana?
"Believe it." Murong Ke said with certainty, he knew that Ye Zhen was reborn from nirvana.
She was his phoenix, the only queen he wanted.
Mingyu's eyes lit up, "Then did you see the phoenix?"
"No." Murong Ke shook his head with a smile, "I've never seen it before. Why do you suddenly ask this? Has Mingyu seen Phoenix?"
"No..." Mingyu remembered Mingxi's advice. She knew she couldn't tell this matter. "I just wanted to ask. I saw someone making a phoenix lantern at the temple fair today. It was very beautiful."
Murong Ke smiled and said, "Mingyu is the phoenix."
Mingyu chuckled, "I'm not, I'm Princess Mingyu."
The father and daughter were talking when Fu Fu's voice came from outside.
"Come in." Murong Ke said calmly.
Fu Fu walked in quickly, "Your Majesty."
"Why are you so panicked?" Murong Ke asked with a frown.
"Master Zhang reported that Master Teng's nephew was...beaten to death by His Highness on the street." Ford shouted in shock.
Needless to say, this His Highness is Mingxi.
Mingxi beat Teng Ye's nephew to death? Murong Ke frowned, "What happened?"
"Is it that Teng Fei again?" Mingyu shouted, "The lesson you learned yesterday was not enough, why are you going to provoke Mingxi today?"
