Chapter 169 Regent
Yun Zhao expressed his meaning clearly.
Xie Jingmo felt the cold look in Yun Zhao's eyes when he looked at him.
He pursed his lips.
"You don't have to think of this as a deal."
"Don't say it so harshly."
"But I did Chang Heng a favor and returned your kindness to him. You did me another favor and detoxified Lin Ruyu."
When Yun Zhao heard this, he almost laughed out loud the moment he heard it.
"Really?"
"Can that be calculated?"
"So, in the end, my parents died in vain, Chang Heng went to save someone and was seriously injured, and I saved him, so that counts as repaying a favor? In the end, the one who was unharmed was Lin Ruyu?"
"Xie Jingmo, is this what you mean?"
Xie Jingmo opened his mouth but couldn't utter the word "good".
But Lin Ruyu's condition is a bit serious. If no solution is found, Lin Ruyu will surely die.
He was really helpless.
Xie Jingmo now even feels a little disgusted with returning to Beijing. After coming back, everything is always out of his control, and he keeps pushing Yun Zhao away from him.
He has tried very hard, but he can never have it all!
This made him feel powerless and sad.
But even so, facing Yun Zhao, at this moment, he could only say: "Things have already come to this. There is no point in worrying about right or wrong. Reducing unnecessary casualties is the most important thing. You don't want Chang Heng to die, do you?"
Xie Jingmo is not a general for nothing. In his plan, he had already calculated that Yun Zhao would definitely compromise for Chang Heng and for the sake of living people!
"I'll give you half a day to think about it. Once you've made up your mind, remove the poison from Lin Ruyu, and I'll immediately give the Forget-Me-Not Lotus to Concubine Yi."
"This Forget-Me-Not Lotus was given to me by the late emperor. It is extremely precious. Even if it is really used as an exchange, it is enough."
Yun Zhao's eyes were indifferent. She looked at Xie Jingmo's back as he left, and her hand on the side of her leg slowly tightened.
Lin Ruyu was in the room and saw Yun Zhao coming in with medicine.
Lin Ruyu immediately knew that it was Xie Jingmo who persuaded Yun Zhao.
"I am still very important in Jing Mo's heart. No matter who saved him back then, I have always had a place in his heart over the years."
Yun Zhao handed the medicine over and was about to speak when someone came in from outside.
"Is Doctor Yun here?"
Yun Zhao put down the medicine and walked out. It was Fu Hai, the emperor's close personal.
Fu Hai smiled and said, "Doctor Yun, the things outside have been taken care of. You haven't been in the palace for the past two days, and things have been in chaos. If you have taken care of things, you can come back with me."
Yun Zhao glanced inside the room and saw that Lin Ruyu had already picked up the medicine and finished drinking it.
She turned around and followed her father-in-law away.
Along the way, the eunuch smiled and said, "Doctor Yun has been working hard these past few days. The Emperor said that you should go back and have a good rest first, and then go to Concubine Yi another day."
Yun Zhao paused for a moment after hearing this.
She subconsciously thought that Xie Jingmo had given the Forget-Me-Not Lotus to Concubine Yi.
But unexpectedly——
The eunuch smiled and said, "General Xie did bring the Forget-Me-Not Lotus into the palace, but he was a little late. The Prince Regent had also received a reward from the late Emperor, and he had already gotten there before the general. He gave the medicine to the Chang family's attendants, who took it back early."
The eunuch smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Doctor Yun also knew the Regent. That's quite surprising. Or maybe the Regent said that you have a lot of things to do outside, so he asked you to take a good rest first."
Yun Zhao narrowed his eyes, "Regent?"
who?
She didn't know any regent.
The eunuch smiled and said, "The Prince Regent is a rare person who cares about others. Everyone says he is cruel and ruthless, but he is very caring towards Doctor Yun. Does Doctor Yun have any connection with the Prince Regent?"
Yun Zhao gave a faint smile.
She didn't know who this regent was.
But it's not a good idea to mess things up before seeing anyone.
He just nodded and said "hmm".
Fu Hai had a good impression of Yun Zhao. He and his younger brother worked in the palace. His younger brother contracted a severe cough and was despised by the nobles and was about to be thrown out of the palace. It was Yun Zhao who gave him a medicine that saved his brother's life.
Fu Hai was full of gratitude to Yun Zhao.
I sincerely hope that in this palace where human relationships are so cold, someone like Yun Zhao who looks cold but has a warm heart can have a good future.
For example, this regent is very good!
Fu Hai said with a smile, "Our Prince Regent assisted the Emperor in ascending the throne and pacified the most vulnerable West Sea. Even now, the Dalai Lamas of West Sea are terrified at the mere mention of the Prince Regent's name. Now that the Prince Regent has returned to the capital, the Emperor is so delighted that he insisted on inviting the Prince Regent to the palace for a drink."
"From childhood to adulthood, the Emperor has never been very close to his brothers in the capital. He has always been attached to and trusting the Prince Regent. Today, the Prince Regent returned to the capital, and I saw the Emperor's eyes secretly redden. He turned his head and wiped away tears. The Emperor experienced many things in his youth, and his thoughts are hard to guess now. But when facing the Prince Regent, he is still as affectionate as he was in the past, admiring him as if he were his own brother."
On the way back to the palace, Yun Zhao spoke less, while Fu Hai spoke more.
He wanted to make Yun Zhao understand that this regent was an important figure, someone who was best to have under his control.
He is also the person who can help her get rid of Xie Jingmo.
Yun Zhao heard it.
When he returned to the rest area, he bowed to Fu Hai sincerely and said, "I understand what you mean. Thank you."
Fu Hai smiled. He was also young, and his smile looked more innocent when he was not on guard.
"I understand that Imperial Doctor Yun is aloof and doesn't like to be close to others. He's talented and could rise to prominence on his own," Fu Hai said with a smile. "But don't we, whether men or women, even those of us without roots, hope for someone who understands us? Imperial Doctor Yun has a good heart, and good people must be rewarded."
Yun Zhao nodded, and Fu Hai left with a smile.
Yun Zhao looked at Fu Hai's back. She just gave her brother a dose of medicine, but Fu Hai said so much to him today, which was not in line with his cautious nature.
Because I want to repay her for being kind to my brother.
But for some people, she gave her heart and soul, but all she got was a deal.
It’s not because people’s hearts are bad, it’s just that some people are not trustworthy.
Yun Zhao withdrew her gaze and when she entered the Imperial Hospital, her colleagues around her were all looking at her.
"Doctor Yun, I heard that you know the Regent?"
"Doctor Yun, you can't deny what the Regent told Concubine Yi himself. He gave Chang Heng the Forget-Me-Not Lotus because of you."
"There are only two Forget-Me-Not Lotuses in the world. One is in the hands of the Regent, and the other is in the hands of General Xie. Doctor Yun, you are truly capable! You can actually get someone as ruthless as the Regent to ask for favors on your behalf."
Yun Zhao pursed his lips.
Countless faces flashed through her mind.
She was convinced that she did not even know the Regent.
Rong Yuan also walked to Yun Zhao's side. Because of Rong Xiao's matter, Rong Yuan took good care of her.
Rong Yuan said, "Yun Zhao, if you hold on to this big tree, you can be guaranteed a lifetime of wealth and glory, but... the Regent has an unpredictable temper and is vindictive. He's not someone you can get along with easily."
