Chapter 139 Should he have decided on the marriage earlier?
Yun Zhao clapped his hands and straightened his sleeves. "Really? Is it over?"
Xie Jingmo looked at her coldly.
Yun Zhao said indifferently, "Then let it go. Everyone makes mistakes sometimes. Please forgive me, General."
The three words "forgive" were said extremely casually.
To Xie Jingmo, it sounds like—
I've passed it, you can think whatever you want.
Yun Zhao did mean this. She smiled and said, "If the general feels that what I did is inappropriate, you can report it to the emperor. I am now the imperial physician in the capital. I think it is not in accordance with the rules for the general to move me privately."
After Yun Zhao finished speaking, he glanced at the embarrassed Lin Ruyu.
She had put on makeup in the morning and challenged the person standing in front of her. Now her hairpins were stuck crookedly and loosely on her head. The rouge on her face was no longer red, and the color of her lips was pale. She looked embarrassed and ridiculous as she vomited while lying on the ground.
"Lin Ruyu, if you are indeed infertile today because of this medicine, I think you should thank me. Because only if you are infertile, the people in the palace might be willing to turn a blind eye and allow you to marry Xie Jingmo. The royal bloodline cannot be tainted, you know this."
As long as Lin Ruyu is unable to bear children, the people in the palace can use the reason of offspring to force Xie Jingmo to marry another woman and share Lin Ruyu's favor.
When Lin Ruyu heard this, her body, which had just stopped, began to tremble violently again.
She turned her head and looked at Yun Zhao fiercely, "You are a devil!"
She burst into tears, tears rolling down her cheeks, "Jing Mo, Jing Mo——"
"Yun Zhao wants to harm me!"
"Yun Zhao, she wants to harm me and our future hopes!"
After he finished speaking, his body went limp, as if he was exhausted, and he collapsed to the ground.
Yun Zhao sneered and met Xie Jingmo's gaze coldly. "General Xie, perhaps you should tell your beloved in advance that I am a vindictive person. If she shows me respect, I will return it ten feet. Don't show up in front of me!"
After Yun Zhao finished speaking, he stood up to leave.
But suddenly someone grabbed him from behind.
"Is that enough?" It was Xie Jingmo's voice.
Yun Zhao understood what Xie Jingmo meant.
He means.
That's enough.
Is today's incident enough to make up for the mistake of delaying Yun Zhao's parents from leaving the city?
"She didn't mean it!" Xie Jingmo said in a serious tone, "You were impressive enough today, Yun Zhao. If you make a move again, I won't just stand by and watch!"
Yun Zhao pushed Xie Jingmo's hand away without turning around.
She still had her back to Xie Jingmo and laughed coldly, "Really? General, do you think it's enough? I don't think it's enough!"
If Lin Ruyu hadn't obstructed them, my parents wouldn't have been exposed to the public, and they would have left the capital quietly.
Now, even if Chang Heng sent them to Liziguai, anyone interested would find out with just a check.
The risks involved can be resolved by Xie Jingmo simply saying "enough".
But after all, now is not the time to take action. Yun Zhao curled his lips and didn't say a word to Xie Jingmo.
He walked back to the palace.
After Xie Jingmo and the others had gone far away, he lowered his head to look at Lin Ruyu.
He really couldn't figure out Lin Ruyu now. Why did she always come to provoke Yun Zhao when she was fine?
But I am still not his opponent.
He brings disgrace upon himself every time.
Make yourself embarrassed.
The maid saw the displeasure that flashed across Xie Jingmo's face, and she gently touched Lin Ruyu.
Lin Ruyu slowly opened her eyes.
Tears slowly fell down her cheeks. "Jing Mo, did you see what Yun Zhao did just now? She wanted to kill me, to kill my hope of bearing children for you in the future. She really has such a vicious mind!"
Xie Jingmo looked from top to bottom, "Why are you here today?"
Lin Ruyu felt a chill in her heart.
Xie Jingmo didn't help her up immediately, but instead suspected her?
Lin Ruyu pursed her lips, supported herself on the ground with her hands, and slowly stood up.
"Jingmo, are you blaming me for the conflict with Imperial Physician Yun?" Lin Ruyu bit her lip and waited for a while. When she didn't hear Xie Jingmo speak, she sniffed. "I was thinking that when we get married in the future, we'll definitely need a wedding quilt. I have no parents, so I need to take care of all these things myself. I came out today to choose a wedding quilt, but I didn't expect to meet Imperial Physician Yun."
Upon hearing this, Xie Jingmo's frown relaxed.
"I told you before, don't mess with her," Xie Jingmo said. "She has a very domineering personality. You should have seen that before. Why do you have to get close to her?"
Lin Ruyu immediately burst into tears, "General, you are wronging me. I didn't forget to ask for permission. It was Doctor Yun who came to talk to me himself. Besides, I thought that you all work in the palace, so I can't just turn a blind eye. How can this be my fault?"
Lin Ruyu wiped her tears, her body trembling slightly, "Jing Mo, have you changed your mind? Why are you defending Yun Zhao like this? In the past, you always stood by me no matter what happened."
Xie Jingmo looked at Lin Ruyu's tearful eyes and wondered if he was too harsh.
He sighed, his tone softening. "That's not what I meant. Less trouble is worse than more. Yun Zhao came back from the frontier. She has a temperament as unruly as a man. You are a weak woman. If you go against her, you will definitely suffer."
Lin Ruyu's shoulders trembled from crying. "It's okay, Jing Mo. For you, I can endure any grievance."
Xie Jingmo nodded and raised his hand to touch Lin Ruyu's hair, "I know you are obedient."
"But you don't have to ask her to be your concubine anymore. She won't agree."
Hearing this, Lin Ruyu looked at Xie Jingmo in surprise, "Is Yun Zhao so jealous? He actually wants to monopolize you? But you are the prince, how could you only favor one woman? Yun Zhao is too ignorant. Prince, I just want you to be happy. If you want to marry a few women back home in the future, Ruyu will not object."
Xie Jingmo didn't think that was the case.
But he didn't say much, just said lightly: "Don't provoke her, and there's no need to say hello when you see her in the future."
Lin Ruyu nodded and bit her lip, "Well, I'll listen to Jing Mo."
Just as Xie Jingmo was about to leave, Lin Ruyu suddenly grabbed Xie Jingmo's hand.
Xie Jingmo turned his head.
Lin Ruyu smiled gently, took out a sachet from her arms, and lowered her head to tie it on Xie Jingmo.
"General, your military duties are very arduous. I cannot always be by your side. Let this sachet accompany you on my behalf. In the future, whenever you see this sachet, you will remember me."
Xie Jingmo lowered his head and looked at the obedient Lin Ruyu in front of him.
I can't help but think about it.
Did I really blame her wrongly?
Was the matter with Yun Zhao’s parents indeed a misunderstanding?
It was really a coincidence that Lin Ruyu and Yun Zhao met on the street today.
Was he too harsh on Lin Ruyu?
Lin Ruyu is a weak woman, different from Yun Zhao, who has experienced battlefields and is deep-minded.
Shouldn't he have decided on the marriage sooner rather than later?
