Chapter 156 She Feels She Has Already Victorious
Yun Zhao naturally saw the provocative smile on Lin Ruyu's lips.
She looked over calmly and said to Xie Jingmo, "Then General Xie, please come over. It's just death anyway, I'm willing to risk it."
Xie Jingmo looked at Yun Zhao angrily.
"Do you have to make things so embarrassing?"
Yun Zhao nodded, "Yes, isn't it obvious? I've already told you to choose, to die today or later. It seems..." Yun Zhao looked at Lin Ruyu and smiled faintly, "You can't bear to die today." Yun Zhao patted the non-existent dust on his clothes, "Okay, then don't blame me."
As he spoke, Yun Zhao walked towards Lin Ruyu step by step.
Lin Ruyu didn't understand what Yun Zhao meant at that time. She was just proud and leaned proudly in Xie Jingmo's arms. She felt that she had already won.
Xie Jingmo was very alert.
Xie Jingmo naturally knew that Yun Zhao had poisoned and killed people without anyone noticing.
He raised his hand and protected Lin Ruyu behind him.
He gritted his teeth, looked at Yun Zhao with red eyes, and said word by word: "Yun Zhao, I will use the seven years of friendship we have shared at the frontier to exchange for her life, okay?"
After Xie Jingmo saw what he said, Yun Zhao smiled.
The smile was faint and ironic.
Yun Zhao's eyes also turned slightly red, and a nonchalant smile appeared on his face. "Thank you, General. You really know how to make the best use of things."
Xie Jingmo didn't want to say this, but he knew that if he didn't save Lin Ruyu today, Lin Ruyu would definitely die!
Lin Ruyu was very puzzled, and didn't understand the cautiousness on Xie Jingmo's face at this moment.
Isn’t it just Yun Zhao?
Is it necessary to retreat step by step like this?
Is it because of fear?
Still like it?
Lin Ruyu narrowed her eyes slightly and stared at the expression on Xie Jingmo's face.
"Yun Zhao, wake up! The person behind your parents' deaths definitely wasn't Lin Ruyu. How about a deal? If you let Lin Ruyu go, I'll catch the person behind it for you. Give me some time, and I'll definitely help you kill him!"
As soon as these words came out.
Yun Zhao raised an eyebrow. "General Xie, are you bragging just for Lin Ruyu?"
The person behind this must be very powerful.
It could be the Queen Mother, the Empress, or even the Emperor!
Xie Jingmo either lied to her, or—
In his eyes and heart, Lin Ruyu's life is more important than the three people mentioned above.
Yun Zhao felt more and more that his previous deep love seemed ridiculous and sad.
Yun Zhao: "I don't want to believe what will happen in the future. I only care about the present. General Xie, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you."
Xie Jingmo wanted to say something.
Yun Zhao had already waved his hand.
"It's boring to talk about it anymore. Since Lin Ruyu is reluctant to die now, let's take it slow." Yun Zhao said with a playful look, "I have plenty of time. I'll play with you slowly."
Yun Zhao said this to Lin Ruyu.
Lin Ruyu originally had her eyes curled up and was looking at Yun Zhao with a smile, but when she heard what she said, her eyes were shocked and the smile on Lin Ruyu's lips suddenly stopped.
Yun Zhao left.
There is no room for maneuver.
Lin Ruyu glanced at Yun Zhaojue's back, then looked at Xie Jingmo.
"Jing Mo, Yun Zhao is gone," Lin Ruyu said, "Does she...still blame me?"
Xie Jingmo's eyes were dim.
Lin Ruyu saw something and said, "Jing Mo, it's all my fault. I caused you and Yun Zhao to become enemies. It's all my fault."
Yun Zhao disappeared around the corner, and Xie Jingmo withdrew his gaze. He looked down at Lin Ruyu's watery eyes and sighed deeply, "She won't give up."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ruyu pretended to be scared.
But I didn't care about it in my heart.
Isn't he just a small imperial physician?
What can be done to her?
Can he really kill her?
"Don't underestimate her," Xie Jingmo said, "She... is good at using poison. You... are weak and are no match for her."
Lin Ruyu nodded softly, "Then I'll trouble Jing Mo to protect me. You are the general, my future husband, and my heaven. You will protect me, right?"
Lin Ruyu is very good at speaking softly
No one can resist such nice words.
Xie Jingmo lowered his eyes and looked at Lin Ruyu, then sighed, "If you meet her next time, avoid her."
Lin Ruyu nodded, "I'll do as you say."
After Xie Jingmo left, Lin Ruyu turned her head and asked the maid beside her, "Did the nobles in the palace say that Yun Zhao knew how to use poison?"
The maid shook her head and put the shawl on Lin Ruyu before saying disdainfully, "What's so strange about that? Doctors know a little bit about pharmacology and can poison food. Even if Yun Zhao wants to do that, he has to be close to you. Don't worry, young lady. I will personally take care of all your affairs in the future and ensure that everything goes smoothly before you get married."
Lin Ruyu was still a little worried after hearing this, "If that's all, why is Xie Jingmo so nervous?"
"I don't know," the maid said nonchalantly, "He's probably just worried about you, young lady. When the general left, didn't he say that he would transfer a few people to you when the time comes? The general loves you so much."
Hearing this, Lin Ruyu smiled and nodded.
She looked at herself in the mirror and at the maid behind her who looked so much like her, and whispered, "Sister, I know what you're thinking. When I marry into a wealthy family, I'll definitely find you a good husband! I'll never treat you unfairly."
The maid behind him had red eyes, "Eldest sister, I know you are good to me."
Lin Ruyu tightly grasped the wooden comb. "However, Xie Jingmo has always been unwilling to marry me. It seems that he still has Yun Zhao in his heart. Since Yun Zhao came to provoke me, I have no choice but to take advantage of it."
The maid looked at Lin Ruyu in confusion when she heard this, "What does elder sister mean?"
Lin Ruyu narrowed her eyes. "Didn't the nobleman in the palace bring the Smiling Banbudian? Bring me a fingernail and put it in my food."
The maid was shocked, "Sister, no! This thing is highly poisonous!"
Lin Ruyu: "You can't get a tiger cub without learning from the tiger. I want to give Xie Jingmo one last push so that he can marry me. I don't have many chips in my hand. I must marry Xie Jingmo as soon as possible."
The maid shook her head with tears in her eyes.
Lin Ruyu: "Go ahead, I know my limits."
Tears rolled down the maid's eyes, "Okay, I'll listen to you, elder sister, but you have to promise me that you must be careful!"
The maid said this and walked out.
Xie Jingmo was very worried in the military camp.
He turned around and complained to Deputy General Gao, "Yun Zhao is really getting more and more presumptuous! He actually dared to threaten me!"
Deputy General Gao looked sad. He felt guilty for not completing the task assigned to him by Yun Zhao.
Hearing Xie Jingmo say this, Deputy General Gao stood up from his seat, "General, you are talking like this, are you still a human being? Yun Zhao's parents died, you really don't have any pity? Are you still a human being?! You only have your Lin Ruyu in your heart, why, in your eyes, others are not human beings?"
