Chapter 118 Why didn’t you tell me to marry into the Yun family?
When Xie Jingmo found a new doctor, Lin Ruyu had a high fever and started talking nonsense.
He murmured, "Jing Mo...Jing Mo..."
The maid covered her face and cried pitifully, "General, look at us! Our young lady is so seriously ill, and how could that Imperial Physician Yun say she's fine? General, even though our young lady is unconscious, she's still worried about you. How could you bear to betray such a deep friendship?"
Xie Jingmo looked at Lin Ruyu, whose face was pale, and frowned deeply.
"General, I'm just a maid. Logically, there are some things I shouldn't say."
"But today, I really have to speak out."
"You've been hard at the frontier these past few years, but the young lady has also had a hard time in the capital. She married someone else, but she's always thinking about you. She stayed married, just waiting for your return. Her husband's family has been quite critical of her. The young lady has suffered a lot of injustice in the past seven years, but she's kind-hearted and doesn't want to tell you and add to your burden."
"You haven't come to ask for my hand in marriage yet. Although I don't say it, I know in my heart that you have a scale in your heart that leans towards the woman named Yun Zhao."
"General, our young lady loves you and protects you, so she is willing to compromise and say she is willing to be your concubine. You can go ask that Imperial Physician Yun if she is willing to compromise like our young lady."
"If you ask, you will know who loves you the most."
Xie Jingmo left with mixed feelings.
Only after the people walked away did Lin Ruyu weakly open her eyes.
"Miss, are there any mistakes in what I just said that you taught me?"
Lin Ruyu smiled and shook her head, "No, you said it very well."
…
Xie Jingmo went to the Imperial Hospital, and Yun Zhao had just come out from Concubine Yi.
"Now you have attached yourself to new powerful people. Can't you see that I am coming?" Xie Jingmo raised his hand and stopped Yun Zhao who was about to take a detour.
Yun Zhao's eyes were indifferent. "General Xie, what can I do for you?"
Xie Jingmo looked at her.
There was a red mark on her delicate neck, left by the slap he gave her with the back of his hand yesterday when he was too excited.
He found it annoying and raised his hand to wipe it off, but Yun Zhao had already taken a step back.
His eyes were alert, like a startled little animal, looking at him vigilantly.
Xie Jingmo felt bitter in his heart, "What do you mean?"
Yun Zhao: "What do you mean, General?"
Yun Zhao: "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
Xie Jingmo, "Wait!"
Yun Zhao stopped.
Xie Jingmo: "If Ruyu is willing to give up her position as wife, would you like me to take her in as well? You and her will be equal wives."
When Xie Jingmo asked this question, he stared at Yun Zhao closely.
Yun Zhao shook his head without even thinking about it.
"No."
Xie Jingmo narrowed his eyes, anger flashing across his face. "Listen carefully, I have already promised you to be the princess of my palace. However, you are only on an equal footing with Lin Ruyu. What are you still unwilling to do? Why do you think your status is more valuable than Lin Ruyu's?"
Yun Zhao looked indifferent.
She suddenly felt a little funny, laughing at herself and at Xie Jingmo.
"It turns out that you and I have never been on the same page."
"Xie Jingmo, you don't understand love."
"In my opinion, you don't necessarily like Lin Ruyu that much."
True love is the obsessive hope that that person belongs only to you.
Instead of being condescending and giving alms, let another person share you.
Yun Zhao sneered and started to leave.
Xie Jingmo was left with only anger, "Yun Zhao, I have retreated again and again, don't push your luck."
From exchanging five thousand pieces of armor for it at the beginning, to agreeing to take Yun Zhao as a concubine later, to now being her equal wife.
"What exactly are you not satisfied with?"
Yun Zhao smiled faintly.
"Let's not even talk about whether your beloved is really willing to share you with another person."
"Xie Jingmo, I'm telling you, I, Yun Zhao, must be your legal wife, and you must promise me that you will never take a concubine. My family has a rule that prohibits sharing a room with prostitutes. If you, Xie Jingmo, want to marry me, you must completely break off all ties with your Miss Lin and never see her again in this life."
"Otherwise, don't come to me again."
Yun Zhao was certain that Xie Jingmo could not do any of what he said.
really.
She had just finished speaking.
Xie Jingmo looked at Yun Zhao with an expression that said "Are you crazy?"
"Yun Zhao, do you think you're a princess or a noble lady? How dare you ask me that? Why don't you just tell me to marry into the Yun family?"
Yun Zhao blinked, "Then I'll add one more requirement: marry into the Yun family and become my son-in-law."
"Oh!" Xie Jingmo's sarcastic expression was full of contempt, "Yun Zhao, you really think you are a princess!"
"I can find a bunch of people like you when I go out!"
"Do you think you're such a high-ranking official just because you're a mere imperial physician? You're asking for such a ridiculous amount of money!"
"Yun Zhao, let me tell you, if you don't agree today, even if you kneel down and beg me in the future, I will never consider marrying you again!"
Yun Zhao nodded, "Then please remember what I said today, General. If I hadn't begged you, you must not come to see me."
After Yun Zhao finished speaking, he walked into the Imperial Hospital.
Xie Jingmo went to see the emperor with a dark face.
The emperor was speechless when he saw the face that was even colder than his own. "Xie General, could you please not look like a widow who can't find a wife every time you come to see me? I'm afraid of you now."
Xie Jingmo's lip lines were straight.
The emperor sighed, "Do you really like Miss Lin that much?"
"The Queen Mother means that Guo Qiaoqiao is your wife and Lin Ruyu is your concubine. This is already a huge concession. Guo Qiaoqiao is the Prime Minister's daughter, and Lin Ruyu comes from a humble background. Do you know how much courage it takes for Qiaoqiao to be willing to share a husband with a woman of her status? Qiaoqiao truly loves you. Don't you consider her, or your uncle?"
The emperor really has a headache.
This Xie Jingmo.
Looking around, everyone in the capital is trying to climb up the social ladder by clinging to the powerful and wealthy.
He, on the other hand, condescended to marry Lin Ruyu, as if he was possessed by a demon.
Xie Jingmo said a few perfunctory words and left.
The emperor chased after him and shouted, "The Queen Mother wants you to go to her palace. Hey! Xie Jingmo!"
My father-in-law shrank his neck and whispered, "He's gone far away."
The emperor stood there, took a deep breath, and then closed his eyes.
The eunuch whispered, "Your Majesty, it's not easy for a person to meet the one they love in this life. If the general insists, wouldn't it be a good idea for you to raise Miss Lin's status and fulfill the general's wish?"
The emperor was silent for a moment, then sighed in compromise, "Then let me think about what kind of status is worthy of Jing Mo."
Xie Jingmo is already a prince and a general!
Lin Ruyu's identity needs to be matched, unless the important officials in the army are asked to recognize her as their goddaughter, or, she really has to be given the identity of a princess!
