Chapter 177 Yun Zhao, do you want to be the queen?
Yun Zhao knelt on the ground and said in a faint voice, "I promise."
The Queen looked at Yun Zhao's calm eyes and sneered, "Yun Zhao, you are not suitable for lying, do you know that? When you lie, there is no light in your eyes."
Yun Zhao knelt on the ground and did not answer.
She started studying medicine at the age of five. Her father told her the first words before she started studying medicine.
Zhaozhao, you must remember throughout your life that as a doctor, your job is to bring light to patients. You promised your father that you would never be the one to take away the light.
Yun Zhao knelt on the ground at this moment, lying on his stomach, and said in a faint voice, "Yun Zhao dare not."
The Queen's eyes were dark. "I dare not, and I can't, right?"
"I've been the queen for many years. If I don't even have this little bit of sensitivity, then my reign as queen would be in vain."
"The Emperor has wanted to depose me for a long time. He has been making frequent moves against my family recently. I had anticipated this. Today, the Emperor came to ask me whether the baby in my belly is a boy or a girl. This is also a sign."
Yun Zhao knelt on the ground and remained silent for a long time.
We are all smart people. We all understand some things without having to say much.
At this point, the Queen directly stated, "My family and Xie Jingmo are good friends. We originally supported Xie Jingmo to become emperor, but he was persuaded by the Queen Mother. Now my family is still willing to give him a promise. If he wants to sit on the throne in the future, my family will protect him with our lives."
Yun Zhao was shocked.
The queen smiled and said, "I can tell you that my family has secret soldiers stationed in the border areas. They are all brave. If Xie Jingmo wants to rebel one day, my family can help him realize his wish. Therefore, Xie Jingmo will protect me."
"And you—"
The queen's eyes were sharp, and she looked down from above, "Yun Zhao, do you want to be the queen?"
Even though Yun Zhao was a veteran of the battlefield, he was still shocked at this moment.
She stared at the queen blankly.
The Queen said: "Do you doubt me in your heart? If that is the case, why don't those soldiers come to rescue me? Yun Zhao, everyone has faith, and my family's faith is to respect Xie Jingmo.
When my father left, he made me swear a solemn oath that the secret troops at the border could only be used by Xie Jingmo. Why do you think you have repeatedly escaped danger over the years?"
All the ministers have obsessions.
This is the obsession of the Queen's father.
"So, Yun Zhao, let me ask you, do you want to be the queen?"
The queen looked at Yun Zhao's fair face and said softly, "If you want this position, Xie Jingmo will rebel for you."
Yun Zhao blinked, feeling that the moment was too magical.
"I?"
"You think too highly of me. I'm just an ant beside Xie Jingmo."
The queen just smiled when she heard this. She knew very well that some things could not be forced because the time was not right.
"Then let's change the terms." The Queen said, "I know what you are investigating, and I can help you. I just need you to protect the baby in my belly. How about that?"
"One of you asked me to kill someone, and the other asked me to save someone. Yun Zhao, as a doctor, you also have your beliefs, right? Otherwise, you should have informed the emperor of the gender of the baby in my belly long ago."
The queen's scheming was beyond Yun Zhao's expectations.
The Queen saw through Yun Zhao's thoughts in an instant. "Before I got married, I was also a general's daughter, well-versed in military books. However, I was trapped by love and wasted my life. If I were a man, I wouldn't be any less accomplished than others."
Yun Zhao pursed his lips.
The Queen looked at her and asked, "I want you to tell me for sure, is the baby in my belly a boy?"
Yun Zhao bit his lip and said after a long moment, "Yes."
The queen smiled, her smile was gentle and full of maternal radiance.
"You don't have to be afraid. You just need to keep telling others that the child in my belly is a princess. The people in the palace will keep me alive for ten months. By then, my family will evacuate the capital and hide their identities. It will be a great blessing for my family to accumulate strength.
And you, just report the baby to Xie Jingmo on the day I give birth, and he will handle everything after that. Also, on the day of the birth, only my people will be in the delivery room, and nothing will be leaked."
Yun Zhao frowned, "Xie Jingmo... promised to help you?"
The queen nodded.
Yun Zhao asked, "Why?" As far as he knew, Xie Jingmo had no intention of rebelling.
The queen smiled faintly and just looked at Yun Zhao, but did not speak for a long time.
After a long time, when Yun Zhao thought the Queen would not tell him, he heard her say, "Xie Jingmo will tell you in the future."
Yun Zhao didn't care about that. "Then how are you going to help me investigate the murderer of my parents?"
The Queen said, "I am the Queen. I have my own methods. If you can reach my position in the future, you will understand."
After Yun Zhao left, the maid beside him whispered, "Why did the Queen say so much to Yun Zhao?"
The queen touched her belly and whispered, "I want to create a good relationship for my child."
She had a premonition.
If one day, the capital city changes.
Yun Zhao might really end up sitting in her current position.
When Yun Zhao came out, he bumped into someone.
I looked up in a trance and saw Xie Jingmo standing in the moonlight.
He was dressed in black, with dark eyes that looked down from top to bottom, appearing calm and powerful.
"Are you scared?" Xie Jingmo asked.
Yun Zhao pursed his lips and said, "No."
Xie Jingmo stared at her, "Yun Zhao, you are not suitable for lying."
That day, the two of them were walking one in front and one behind, Yun Zhao was in front and Xie Jingmo was behind.
Xie Jingmo looked at Yun Zhao's thin figure and stared for a long time.
That night, the two walked for a long time in the middle of the night.
Xie Jingmo didn't stop until they reached Yun Zhao's residence. "There's nothing to be afraid of. Don't you want to investigate the death of your parents? Just listen to the Queen. I will arrange everything from now on. You will be fine."
Yun Zhao slowly turned his head.
Xie Jingmo opposite her was as tall as he was when she first went to the border seven years ago.
His eyes were always calm, as if nothing could shake him.
When she was in the military camp, he held out his hand and said to her, "Don't be afraid."
She really wasn't afraid.
now.
He still said that to her.
But she could no longer rely on him. They stood very close to each other, but Yun Zhao felt that there was a gap between them that could never be crossed in their lifetime.
Yun Zhao was a little sad, but some things had happened and there was no turning back.
In this life, you have to rely on yourself.
Yun Zhao said nothing and turned back to his bedroom.
Xie Jingmo looked at Yun Zhao.
He doesn't understand.
Why didn't Yun Zhao rely on himself this time like he did seven years ago, didn't he hold his hand and say to him, "With you here, I'm not afraid."
The next day.
The Queen's personal maid came hurriedly shouting, "Doctor Yun, the Queen Mother and the Emperor are worried and have called in the entire Imperial Hospital to take the Queen's pulse. They want a definitive answer today as to whether the baby is a boy or a girl."
The maid was panicked, "What should I do?!"
Yun Zhao tightened his hands beside his legs, and when he looked up, he saw Xie Jingmo standing outside the door at some point.
