Chapter 203 The price is a bit high, right?
Mu Chengyan's expression was ironic.
Looking at Xie Jingmo was like looking at a fool.
Xie Jingmo immediately guessed, "You know, you already knew it!"
Mu Chengyan didn't say anything.
Xie Jingmo was immediately certain, "She and the Emperor have a contractual partnership. You knew that a long time ago. Did Yun Zhao tell you?"
This idea made Xie Jingmo extremely unhappy.
There is a feeling that my position has been replaced.
Mu Chengyan never said a word.
Xie Jingmo looked at Mu Chengyan coldly, "I advise you to stay away from Yun Zhao, otherwise, you will be openly opposing me."
Mu Chengyan stopped this time. He sneered and looked at Xie Jingmo, "Who do you think you are?"
Xie Jingmo was about to speak.
Mu Chengyan took the lead and asked, "Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
The Regent’s deterrent power is not false, Xie Jingmo narrowed his eyes.
Mu Chengyan sneered and turned away.
That day, Xie Jingmo did not return to the palace, but went to find Deputy General Gao.
Asked, "What do you think is the way to get Mu Chengyanzhi away and prevent him from appearing in the capital for at least ten years?"
Vice Admiral Gao didn't understand. "Ten years? Why ten years?"
Xie Jingmo said, "Ten years later, Yun Zhao followed me and had a child. Even if Mu Chengyan came back, it would be too late."
Deputy General Gao's jaw dropped. "Haven't you always been confident?"
"Besides, you're a prince, a domineering general. You want to pursue a woman for ten years? My God, you still have that kind of awareness."
Xie Jingmo was in no mood to joke, "You don't understand. I feel like Yun Zhao and this Mu Chengyan have a special relationship."
Vice Admiral Gao naturally knew, "Really? I didn't notice that."
Xie Jingmo: “?”
Deputy General Gao: "But even if there is, it's quite normal. Yun Zhao has always been a person who knows how to repay kindness. Mu Chengyan took her parents in and even buried them. This is a great favor. It's normal for Yun Zhao to be closer to him."
Xie Jingmo said in annoyance, "If I had sent someone to bring Yun Zhao's parents back, this wouldn't have happened. Please help me think about how I can offset her affection for Mu Chengyan."
Deputy General Gao said casually, "There is indeed one, but I'm afraid you don't dare to do it."
Xie Jingmo tilted his head, and the color in his eyes faded little by little.
He understood what Deputy General Gao meant by "not daring".
Yun Zhao's only obsession now is to find the murderer who killed her parents.
If the Empress Dowager is ruled out, the suspect is Concubine Yi.
"I guess Yun Zhao will take action in the near future." said Deputy General Gao.
In fact, he didn't know whether Yun Zhao had any favor with Mu Chengyan, or whether he was treated specially.
Deputy General Gao simply felt that a woman’s seven years were too precious.
This is what Xie Jingmo owes Yun Zhao.
He couldn't bear to watch it.
I don't intend to stand idly by either.
He just wanted to give a push from behind and make Xie Jingmo pay back Yun Zhao for the past seven years.
In the future, Yun Zhao’s marriage and funerals will all be up to her own wishes.
Xie Jingmo repaid the seven years of love, and everything between them was finally clean.
Xie Jingmo didn't know what Deputy General Gao was thinking, and he remained silent for a long time.
If Yun Zhao were to take the lead in doing this, it would make things difficult for Concubine Yi.
To make things difficult for Concubine Yi would mean making things difficult for the entire Chang family and for the future queen.
this……
Deputy General Gao: "The price is a bit high, isn't it? Then think about it again?"
Deputy General Gao understood what it meant to stop at the right time.
And, he did it very well.
He was smart enough to keep quiet.
Silence spread between the two of them until Xie Jingmo stood up silently and walked out.
A moment later.
When Xie Jingmo was about to take a few steps out, he suddenly turned around and looked at Deputy General Gao with cold eyes, "If I really did it, would Yun Zhao be able to calm down my anger for exchanging her for 5,000 armors?"
Deputy General Gao nodded, "Yes."
Deputy General Gao had something else to say.
That is——
The Yun Zhao of the past will never come back.
Xie Jingmo frowned and left.
Lieutenant General Gao raised his head, took a sip of wine, looked at the moon in the sky, and whispered, "Lieutenant General Lin, I'm willing to risk it all for your family!"
When Xie Jingmo was preparing to go to court, he met Lin Ruyu.
There were quite a lot of people, so Xie Jingmo took them aside.
"It's time to go to court. It's inappropriate for you to stop me at this time."
Lin Ruyu's eyes turned red and she took off the veil from her face.
Xie Jingmo had seen Lin Ruyu's face before, but when he saw it now, he couldn't help but gasp!
“You are…”
Before it was just plain ugly, now it's scary.
Lin Ruyu cried, "It's the Queen! It's the Queen! She deliberately asked the Imperial Hospital to prescribe stimulating medicine for me, and every day she had the maids serve me seafood and stimulating food. In just three days, my face is like this!"
"Jing Mo, please save me, please get me out!"
"The Queen suspected that I poisoned her medicine, but I really didn't. This was all Yun Zhao's conspiracy. Jing Mo, I took the blame for Yun Zhao!"
Xie Jingmo's eyes were gloomy and he didn't speak for a long time.
Lin Ruyu looked at Xie Jingmo nervously, "Jingmo, you said before that I saved you, and you will help me no matter what I want to do, right?"
Xie Jingmo hadn't realized his feelings for Yun Zhao before, but now that he has, he naturally doesn't want to get too involved with others.
What’s more, this person is Lin Ruyu.
"Lin Ruyu, I understand your request." Xie Jingmo spoke slowly.
Lin Ruyu's expression froze.
What did Xie Jingmo call her just now?
Call her by her full name—Lin Ruyu?
Lin Ruyu was stunned.
Xie Jingmo continued, "Everyone knows the reason behind the Queen's incident. We are all smart people, so there is no need for you to act stupid.
The Queen is a cruel person. If you offend her, she will not let you off lightly. But you have done me a favor, so I will help you with this matter. However, after this, we are even.
Lin Ruyu was stunned.
"What did you say?"
Xie Jingmo said: "It was my fault before. I mistook kindness for love. But now I realize that love is love, and it cannot be replaced by kindness.
You have done many things, and I used to be tolerant of them. Now I feel that it is because I was too tolerant that you cannot distinguish the important from the trivial.
Even if I tell you everything clearly today, if you agree, I will go to the Queen. If you don’t agree…”
Lin Ruyu narrowed her eyes, her face filled with shock and disbelief. "If I don't agree... Jing Mo, what are you going to do? Are you going to watch me die at the hands of the Queen?"
Xie Jingmo pursed his lips.
Then, under Lin Ruyu's resentful gaze, he said word by word: "If you don't agree, then go back and think about it carefully. When you agree, come and tell me."
After Xie Jingmo finished speaking, he went to court.
Lin Ruyu stood there, as if struck by lightning!
