Chapter 1983 Don’t Like Living in Other People’s Homes

When Ye Zhen met Shui Yichen for the first time in the Hua Kingdom, she knew that this man was more than just a businessman. What she least expected was that he would leave the Hua Kingdom and follow her to attack the Dongqing Kingdom and create the Yuan Kingdom. Shengshi, when she saw his eyes today, she roughly understood a little bit, but she didn't want to understand too much. Sometimes it's better to not know than to know.

She knew that he would not betray her, but he was also an ambitious person, but he didn't realize it.

"If we didn't come back, would you join forces with Cheng Zheng?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice, looking at Shui Yichen with bright eyes.

Shui Yichen wanted to blurt out that he would not, but he hesitated because he knew that it might really be possible.

"It's meaningless to say this now." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "Even if Cheng Zheng really wants to cooperate with Yuan Guo, he will definitely become your enemy in the future."

"How did you kill him?" Shui Yichen also knew that some words were meaningless to ask now. He just wanted to make sure that she trusted her.

"One arrow pierces the heart." Ye Zhen said lightly, "My archery skills are pretty good."

Being able to kill Cheng Zheng would be more than just good.

Shui Yichen had seen Ye Zhen's archery skills and felt that although her archery skills were superb, they were not capable of killing Cheng Zheng, so she had something to hide.

However, he is not in a hurry for her to tell the truth, she will definitely tell it in the future.

"Since you are back, why not go back to the palace before dark?" Shui Yichen asked in a low voice. She was still the concubine of the Yuan Kingdom, so she naturally had to live in the palace.

Ye Zhen glanced at Mo Rongzhan, she smiled and said, "Let's forget about going back to the palace. It's been so many years. I don't think many people remember about Tianfei. We will live in my father's former courtyard. , and... Zhao Rao will definitely not let it go if I kill Cheng Zheng, so that she will not come to trouble you."

"Empress Tianfei, we all remember you." Shen Luoyang said hurriedly.

Shui Yichen's voice was slightly cold, "What you mean is that you treat all of our subordinates who have followed you through life and death as outsiders. Do you think we are afraid of Qi State because we are greedy for life and afraid of death?"

"That's not what I meant." Ye Zhen said.

"What does that mean?" Shui Yichen frowned. He felt that there was a barrier between them. He had not felt this way before.

Mo Rongzhan, who had been silent until now, said quietly, "Going to rescue Zhao Ning is our family matter and has nothing to do with the Jin Kingdom and the Yuan Kingdom."

So there is no such thing as an outsider versus one’s own people.

Shui Yichen squinted slightly and looked at Mo Rongzhan, only to realize that Mo Rongzhan's eyes were different. It seemed that Mingxi was telling the truth, he was blind.

"Yes, it's a family matter." Ye Zhen immediately agreed with Mo Rongzhan. She didn't want the matter of killing Cheng Zheng to become a national issue. If Zhao Rao wanted to seek revenge from her, he should come to her alone.

"Tianfei..." Shui Yichen's voice was cold and he wanted to continue speaking.

Mingxi interrupted him, "General Shui, it doesn't matter whether you go back to the palace or not. My parents have been traveling for so many days, so why not rest first? Look, it's almost dark. What's the matter? Why don't you go back to the palace?" Let’s talk tomorrow.”

"I'll have someone prepare the guest room." Shui Yichen said immediately. After all, it has been four years, and there are many issues that cannot be explained in a short while.

Murong Zhan said coldly, "I'm not used to staying in other people's guest rooms."

Ye Zhen said helplessly to Shui Yichen, "Then we will stay in another courtyard first and we will discuss other matters tomorrow."

"Yes." Shui Yichen's voice was cold, and he felt that Murong Zhan was as annoying as ever.

No, it's even more annoying than before.

…

…

Ye Zhen and the others left Shui's house and lived in Ye Yiqing's former courtyard. Fortunately, there were several servants living here, and everything was relatively clean. After changing the mattresses, they were able to stay.

Mingxi told Mo Rongzhan and the others what happened after leaving, "Jingning Marquis and Uncle Wang have already set off to return to Beijing. If there are no problems, they should meet up with Auntie halfway. There are reports from Kyoto The news comes, Teng Ye wants to take advantage of the opportunity to deal with his uncle, he has been demoted to the wilderness, he must have an even greater grudge against us."

"It's just a villain, don't worry about it." Murong Zhan didn't take Teng Ye seriously at all, and he didn't even have any impression of this person.

"You actually followed Shui Yichen for so many days, didn't he notice?" Ye Zhen asked.

Mingxi chuckled, "He found out, but he didn't know it was us."

Ye Zhen glared at them, "You also made the statue at the city gate, right?"

"It's me, it's me!" Mi'er immediately raised her little hand to claim credit, "The original statue was ugly, but I made it beautiful. Madam, don't they look alike?"

"Tonight is ruined immediately." Mo Rongzhan said expressionlessly.

Mi'er blinked, "Why? Doesn't it look good?"

"Dad, what's wrong?" Mingxi also didn't understand.

"Of course not, I think she's very beautiful." Ye Zhen said with a smile and gave Miao'er a thumbs up, "As expected of Miao'er."

Mo Rongzhan said in a calm voice, "Then carry the statue back and don't let others see it."

"Who would put such a big statue in their home?" Ye Zhen shouted, "Just restore it to its original appearance. If it is destroyed, the people might think something happened."

Mingxi was afraid that Mo Rongzhan really wanted them to carry the statue back, so he hurriedly said, "Mom, let's restore it to its original appearance tonight."

"Yes." Ye Zhen nodded, "Didn't you find Huangfu Chen? Where is he?"

"My husband said he was going back to do some errands. He should be back tomorrow," Mingxi said.

Ye Zhen held her chin in one hand, "I don't know if there is any news from Qi State. I'll check it out tomorrow."

At night, the three children came outside the city gate again and looked at the lifelike statue. Miao'er had a look of pity and sadness on her face. The carving was so good. She looked exactly like the lady. I really don't know where Mo Rongzhan got his weird temper.

"Mingxi, why doesn't the city lord allow the statue of Madam to be placed here?" Meier asked Mingxi doubtfully.

"Probably..." Mingxi thought hard, "He can't see it himself."

Huohuang rolled his eyes, "What do two brats know? It's because the city lord is jealous. He thinks Yaoyao belongs to him alone, so he can't let others see Yaoyao so beautiful."

"Ah? Why?" Mi'er couldn't figure it out even more. She wished everyone would say she was pretty, so why was she afraid of being seen by others.

"You don't understand this. You won't know until you grow up." Huohuang actually knew only a little bit about it and couldn't explain it to them at all.

Mi'er looked at Mingxi seriously, "Will you hide me from others in the future?"

"No." Mingxi shook his head decisively.

"That's good." Mi'er patted her chest, "I will try not to look so good-looking."

Mingxi frowned, "I like good-looking people."

Huohuang looked at the two innocent children speechlessly.
