Abandoned daughter by a genius doctor: King Leng's favorite concubine

Chapter 523

Ye Chengping had the guts to say these words, the emperor's expression was serious, no one knew, in the next moment, he would have someone drag Ye Chengping down and tear him apart!

"Ye Chengping, you know, if someone else said that, he would have already been decapitated!"

"I know."

"Then you still dare to say that?"

"The emperor is used to flattery and flattery, and has long forgotten how you and your minister got along in the past, but the minister has no intention of power, so it doesn't matter whether you will offend the emperor or not."

The emperor snorted coldly: "It doesn't matter, Ye Chengping, I remember when I asked you whether you wanted to stay or leave, and you chose to stay, but now you come to tell me that you have no intention of power?"

"The emperor doesn't know at all, why did the minister stay in the first place?"

"It's not too late for you to tell me now. This matter has troubled me for many years. I often think that if you had left back then, maybe I would have met you today and I would have smiled sincerely."

Ye Chengping thought back to the past, took a deep breath and said, "Does your majesty still remember the incident when Rong Ruo was taken away?"

"Of course I remember. At that time, I chased you for a long time in the rainy night, and then I found Rong Ruo in a ruined temple."

"Then, does your majesty still remember Rong Ruo's expression at that time?"

The emperor also seemed to think of that scene back then, and said with emotion: "She seems to be a different person."

"Yes, because the person who kidnapped Rong Ruo back then was Rong Ruo's friend. When Rong Ruo was rescued, he didn't remember anything but his name was Rong Ruo. He didn't even know his last name, and no one knew it. If it was her real name, I thought that Rong Ruo would never remember the past for the rest of her life, but on that rainy night, Rong Ruo changed. Later, I slowly discovered that she had already remembered who she was. People also came to look for Rong Ruo several times, but Rong Ruo did not go with him."

"Then do you know who Rong Ruo is and where she came from?"

"I don't know, Rong Ruo didn't tell me until the moment she died, who is she and where did she come from?"

"What does this have to do with your staying in the capital?"

"Because I'm afraid, that person's light work is so good that neither the emperor nor the minister can catch up. I'm afraid that Rongruo will be taken away by him one day, so I choose to stay. At least in the imperial capital, in the Ye family, there is an extra guarantee." .”

"Just because of that?"

"not only that."

"tell me the story."

"Will the emperor believe me if I tell you?"

"If you don't tell me, how will you know if I will believe you?"

"Back then, not long after the emperor came to the throne, there was no one trustworthy around him. Although the emperor and his ministers were not the same as before, the minister still chose to stay. First, he could better protect Rong Ruo. Second, the emperor If there is any need, at least the minister can help out with advice, but unfortunately, in the end, the minister still failed to protect Rong Ruo."

The emperor was silent. Neither Ye Chengping nor he were young anymore. Looking back on them when they were young, they were so unrestrained, so devoted to love and righteousness, but now?Intrigues and jealousy of each other, why?
Power confuses people too much, and when he asks himself, he can't let go of what he holds in his hands.

"Ye Chengping, if I say that Ye Lingxi must marry the crown prince regardless of whether you resign today, what would you say?"

"If the emperor insists on this, what can I do? You are the emperor, and I don't want my daughter to suffer. I will definitely not let her go against the imperial decree and seek her own death. Even if you force her to die, I will let her wear a wedding dress."
