Chapter 44 The Emperor's Surname(2/2)
After suppressing Zhao Yi's identity, Ye Zhen was only thinking about the other party.
The situation is chaotic now. Zhao Yi is just a child. If his identity is exposed, the danger will only be higher.
It would be better to let him stay with him as his nephew first. As for when he will go back to recognize his relatives, there is no rush.
After leaving Wangyue Tower, Ye Zhen refused Fu Heng's request to send her back, and instead took Lin Bin around the streets.
After being depressed at home for several days, she finally came out and wanted to relax before going back.
"See if there is anything you want to buy. We made money today!"
Patting her chest, the five hundred taels of silver notes seemed to be heating up, making Ye Zhen overjoyed.
Lin Bin followed her without saying a word. Although his expression was cold, there was a hint of warmth in his eyes.
The two of them walked around for a while, Ye Zhen bought some ingredients and cloth, rented a carriage to follow, and then planned to go back.
As soon as the carriage left the city gate, it stopped suddenly, causing Ye Zhen who was sitting in the carriage to almost fall.
Fortunately, Lin Bin had quick eyesight and quick hands to support her, and no accident occurred.
"Go, go, go! We are on a carriage going to the countryside, not officials and nobles!"
The coachman's stern voice sounded outside, followed by faint cries.
Ye Zhen frowned and lifted the curtain, only to see a circle of ragged people surrounding the carriage, all with sallow and thin faces and miserable expressions on their faces.
The coachman was still driving people away, but seeing that he couldn't say anything, he decided to step over with force.
"etc!"
Ye Zhen stopped his behavior in time and immediately got off the carriage, followed closely by Lin Bin.
"Auntie, where did you come from? How did you end up like this?"
Before she could even finish her words, everyone in the circle burst into tears. The scene was extremely pitiful.
