Chapter 191 I'm not stupid to gamble my life on a man's conscience
Xie Jingmo wanted to say.
Come here.
Like before, among thousands of times, you chose to hold my hand without a doubt.
His eyes were filled with anticipation and he stared at Yun Zhao intently.
"Be obedient, Yun Zhao, come here, be obedient."
"As long as you come here, everything will be fine."
"I won't argue with you."
"When the sun rises, I'll take you home. Don't you want to be my legal wife? Okay, I promise you."
"I know you're unhappy. For the five thousand armors, for Yunmeng, and for Lin Ruyu, you have many complaints against me. I know all of this.
In the future, I will make amends. I will arrange for Lin Ruyu to marry a suitable family. I will take good care of you in the future. I promised you that I would never take a concubine again in this life. I will do it.
Come out now, come out from inside, okay?" Xie Jingmo's voice was coaxing in a low voice.
Yun Zhao remained quiet.
After a long time.
Yun Zhaocai said regretfully: "So, you actually always knew that I was unhappy and sad, but you never took it to heart."
Xie Jingmo frowned. "I have my reasons. I'm a general, and I have my own judgment. Let's not talk about this today. Can you come out first? Let's go back and talk slowly."
Xie Jingmo is very good at coaxing people when he wants to.
He would say the nicest words and do the softest things, so in the past, Yun Zhao would be defeated just by beckoning his finger.
He suffered a loss because of his stubbornness, and he also didn't want to make things too difficult for Xie Jingmo.
So many times before in the military camp, she stopped making trouble with Xie Jingmo easily.
This also gave Xie Jingmo a feeling that he could easily control Yun Zhao.
Little do people know that behind this easy-to-control attitude is a sincere heart.
Now, this sincerity has been completely betrayed.
Yun Zhao looked at Xie Jingmo and said calmly, "In the past, I always forgave easily, but now, this time, I can't."
Xie Jingmo's eyes widened and he shook his head.
Yun Zhao was laughing, "After all, we are not destined to be together, Xie Jingmo. Everything we have experienced in the past is like our previous life. From now on, I will only walk the path I want to walk. It has nothing to do with you anymore."
After Yun Zhao finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.
Xie Jingmo's eyes widened. "No, no! Yun Zhao! You said it yourself. You said you would stay by my side forever. Yun Zhao, you said it yourself!"
The palace door slowly opened and then slowly closed.
It was a windy day and the door that was not closed tightly was blown open by the wind.
No one came to close it anymore.
But Xie Jingmo didn't dare to go. He didn't dare to walk in, even to take a look.
In the bedroom, the emperor looked at Yun Zhao who was kneeling on the ground.
"Are you prepared to kneel like this all night?" asked the emperor.
Yun Zhao lay on the ground. "It is my fault that the relationship between you and General Xie has become strained. I will kneel for one night as punishment."
The emperor looked at Yun Zhao with a somewhat deep look in his eyes.
After a moment, "It's up to you." Then the emperor lay down.
After a while.
All around was silent.
Everything quieted down.
Yun Zhao slowly stood up. The moonlight outside shone through the window onto the ground, forming a large area of bright white.
She heard the emperor's long and steady breathing and breathed a sigh of relief.
Then she knelt on the ground and waited for dawn.
The next day.
When the emperor got up to attend court and Fu Hai entered to serve him, Yun Zhao was already there.
To the point that he didn't know whether he should go in or retreat.
Yun Zhao said calmly, "Excuse me, Master Fu Hai, this waist sachet is usually worn in this position."
In one sentence, Fu Hai solved his problem.
Fu Hai entered the room, and after everything was settled, the emperor glanced at Yun Zhao and said calmly, "You chose the path yourself, and you must finish it even if you have to kneel. I have taken note of what I said last night. From now on, you will live in the Rihui Palace as my concubine."
Yun Zhao knelt and replied, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The Empress Dowager only learned about this when she woke up. At this time, the Emperor had already bestowed the status of noble lady on Yun Zhao.
The Queen Mother was so angry that she threw a cup of tea!
Afternoon.
Yun Zhao received the imperial edict, which roughly meant that she had been taking care of the queen before, but now the fetus was unstable, so she had to go there again.
Yun Zhao did not refuse.
She walked openly among the red walls and green tiles, came up to the queen and bowed.
"Yun Zhao, so your target is the emperor. I underestimated you."
Yun Zhao sat down at the side and drank a cup of tea. Then he smiled faintly and said, "Our agreement still stands. You help investigate the murderer, and I will cover up the baby in your belly."
The Queen narrowed her eyes. "You are a noble lady now, and you still want to do this?"
Yun Zhao smiled and said, "In life, we should always do what we want to do. If a child cannot avenge his or her parents, then he or she is unworthy of being a human being!"
The queen looked at Yun Zhao quietly, and looked up to her.
Nowadays, women are mostly dependent on men, so it is rare to find such a brave woman.
"Okay!" the Queen said, "If I can finally kill your enemy for you." The Queen didn't know about Yun Zhao's agreement with the Emperor. She said to Yun Zhao, "Then I hope you will promise me that you will take care of my child and raise him safely. I want you to be his mother."
Yun Zhao laughed when he heard this, "Why are you so arrogant?"
The Queen said, "After all, your enemy is one of these two people. One is the current Queen Mother, and the other is the future Queen. Neither of them is simple, right?"
Yun Zhao raised the teacup in his hand and said, "Deal."
The queen curled her smile, thinking that Yun Zhao was a straightforward person, different from those scheming fools in the palace.
She relaxed and touched her belly. "You made a lot of noise last night, Xie Jingmo... have you really let it go?"
Yun Zhao also became relaxed. She smiled faintly and said, "You said at the beginning that you were deeply in love with the emperor when you were young, but now you have ended up like this. It shows that love is a luxury after all.
You understood it too late, so you have to die. In the future, your children will have to call someone else "mother." But this is already the best arrangement for you.
Don’t you regret it? Will the emperor feel bad about this? He won’t. He sleeps in other women’s beds every day. If I were like you, I would be completely distorted in front of Xie Jingmo. "
The Queen looked at Yun Zhao's bright face and said, "You are quite open-minded."
"I can't open it if I don't want to," Yun Zhao said, "I don't want to become a resentful woman in the deep palace, and Xie Jingmo is not worth it."
The Queen said: "I don't think Xie Jingmo would be so cruel to you..."
Yun Zhao laughed and looked at the Queen. "Isn't it stupid of me to repeatedly gamble my life on a man's conscience?"
Upon hearing this, the queen paused deeply.
After a long time.
She picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly.
The tea had turned cold and entered my chest, making my heart feel icy cold.
The Queen said calmly, "If I had your awareness, I wouldn't have done this. If my child ever has the chance to be in your care, please teach him/her carefully. My family will remember your kindness!"
