Chapter 102 You Know My Temper
Yun Zhao didn't want to get involved in the royal disputes.
Lin Ruyu’s incident gave her a wake-up call.
The people above are so powerful that killing her is as easy as killing an ant.
Even though Xie Jingmo once favored Lin Ruyu so much, she ended up marrying someone else.
Who is she?
If she died, Xie Jingmo probably wouldn't even spare a glance at her.
It would be really stupid for her to act out a deep love for herself.
"I'm leaving." Yun Zhao said it fluently and picked up his bag readily.
Xie Jingmo frowned, not understanding what Yun Zhao meant. "I'll look for you outside again. Didn't I make it clear to you before?"
Yun Zhao nodded. "I know, but I'll have a place to stay, so I won't be an eyesore here. Also, if nothing else, I'll leave on my own when the three months are up. I won't come to say goodbye to you, General. I've been at the frontier for seven years, and I'm grateful for your care. I'm leaving now. Take care!"
After Yun Zhao finished speaking, he walked away.
Xie Jingmo's face was as cold as ice in winter.
He grabbed Yun Zhao's collar and said, "If you don't tell the truth, I'll have you hanged up and beaten to death!"
Yun Zhao thought.
If I told the truth.
You won't beat me to death, but your dear mother will.
Yun Zhao felt deeply in dire straits.
Can't wait to go.
Xie Jingmo's expression grew uglier. "Yun Zhao, you know my temper. Don't make me say it again! What happened?!"
Yun Zhao could only sigh and tug at his collar.
But Xie Jingmo didn't relax.
Yun Zhao could only stand there awkwardly. "General, I recently heard that Miss Lin's husband passed away. When he died, he gave her a letter of divorce. Although I am a military doctor, I am a woman after all. If I stay with you for too long, I am afraid that Miss Lin will be unhappy. Besides, I can actually find a place to live on my own, so I won't bother you."
Xie Jingmo sneered when he heard this, "Yun Zhao, look at how you're afraid of death."
Yun Zhao was very happy, "I am also an ordinary person, and ordinary people are afraid of death."
Xie Jingmo's expression remained grim. He looked at Yun Zhao coldly, "Is that so? But when you killed Chen Tingting, you didn't seem afraid of death at all. When you went into Liziguai, I didn't see you showing any fear. When the plague hit Lincheng, you went there alone, and I didn't hear you complain to me. How come you weren't afraid all those times, but now you're afraid of death because of me?"
Yun Zhao thought.
You exchanged me for five thousand pieces of armor, so do I have to risk my life for you?
Wouldn't that be a huge joke?
She didn't dare to say this, but just laughed, "General, you are exaggerating. You are a noble in the capital, a general, a prince. There are many people around you who would sacrifice their lives for you. I am just a weak woman, so I won't come to cause trouble."
As he spoke, Yun Zhao struggled, but Xie Jingmo still refused to let go.
"You stay here," Xie Jingmo said in a cold tone, "No one is chasing you away. Miss Lin won't be moving in in the near future. Even if she does, it won't be a problem for you. Just stay here and don't cause me any trouble."
Yun Zhao curled his lips and was about to speak.
Then he heard Xie Jingmo say, "You'd better be quiet. If you don't obey me and cause me trouble, don't blame me for coming back to settle the score with Lieutenant General Lin!"
After the Yunmeng incident, Xie Jingmo finally saw things clearly.
Yun Zhao is a wolf at heart, full of wolfish nature.
But on weekdays, she hides herself very well, and she will only go crazy when her bottom line is touched.
Family is her bottom line.
Yun Zhao's weakness was caught, and she stared at Xie Jingmo.
Xie Jingmo remained indifferent. He threw Yun Zhao's bag on the bed, turned around and left.
Xie Jingmo said that Lin Ruyu would not be allowed to move in for the time being, but the next day, Butler Li was already busy making arrangements.
Yun Zhao held his chin and watched Uncle Li arrange the decoration of the side hall room, which was really attentive.
Sheng Cui walked over to Yun Zhao and said, "Look, Miss Lin's husband just passed the seventh day of his death, and the general couldn't wait to take Lin Ruyu into the palace, regardless of everyone's comments."
Yun Zhao was quite curious about what Miss Lin looked like.
Sheng Cui looked at Yun Zhao's gossip-seeking expression and smiled, "Aren't you jealous?"
Yun Zhao shook her head, then she turned and looked at Sheng Cui.
On the other hand, a sour look of jealousy was seen on the latter's face.
"Lin Ruyu is a formidable figure," Sheng Cui said. "You're too pure. You're no match for her."
Yun Zhao laughed, "Really?"
Sheng Cui nodded. "Think about it. The Lin family's husband originally loved Lin Ruyu, but even so, after seven years of marriage, she remained virgin. What kind of tricks did he use? Not to mention that after his death, he gave Lin Ruyu a divorce certificate that represented her freedom. If it were you, could you make a man so devoted to you?"
Yun Zhao shook his head.
She doesn't have this ability, and she only has a tragic past in which her value was exploited by a scumbag.
It’s miserable to think about it.
Sheng Cui glanced at Yun Zhao and said, "Besides, look at our master. He is unruly, cold and stern, second only to the emperor and above everyone else, a child of destiny. Yet, because of her, such a man has been away on the frontier for seven years! The key is that as soon as he returned, he couldn't wait to bring her back to his mansion."
Sheng Cui said to Yun Zhao, "I told the Queen Mother what you asked me to say last time. The Queen Mother looked as if she was considering it. I think she understood that if she wanted to keep the prince's son, she had to bow her head in the matter of Lin Ruyu."
Sheng Cui said with a click of her tongue: "That was the Queen Mother of the day! Lin Ruyu actually forced the Queen Mother to this place, do you dare to imagine?"
Yun Zhao didn't dare to think about it.
She just wanted to leave as soon as possible, because where there are many women, there are many troubles.
She was not interested in fighting to the death for a man, and besides, that man had never truly belonged to her.
In the past, she just thought of it as a bite from a dog.
Thinking of this, I feel much better.
Sheng Cui looked at Yun Zhao's fair face in confusion, "You're such a weird person. Have you ever thought about fighting for yourself?"
Yun Zhao clapped his hands, "I fought, but I lost."
Lost to Xie Jingmo.
Yun Zhao walked out swiftly, taking advantage of the good weather to stroll around the prosperous capital.
Sheng Cui curled her lips, unable to tell whether she was envious of Yun Zhao or jealous.
Woman, how can you be so carefree?
She stood up, turned around, and saw Xie Jingmo, who had been standing behind her for some reason.
"General!" Sheng Cui knelt down.
Xie Jingmo looked coldly at the person kneeling on the ground, "When did the Queen Mother summon Yun Zhao? What did she say during the meeting? If you say even one less word, I will throw you into the carp pond and let you feed the fish!"
Yun Zhao came back after playing for a whole day.
When I entered the house, I could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the mansion was not right.
She saw Deputy General Gao and was about to say hello.
Lieutenant General Gao shook his head vigorously at her. She immediately turned around to leave, but before she could take a step, she was grabbed and thrown into the house.
